Half an hour later.
Li Changfeng watched helplessly as the two women went on a drunken rampage. He never expected that they could get so drunk from just a pot of wine. Now, their faces flushed, they clung to Li Changfeng, "Li Changfeng! Get me some wine! Quickly!"
Li Changfeng's face turned bitter upon hearing this. He dared not offer them any wine; it would be the death of him. "No... no more!"
Upon seeing this, the two women's eyes narrowed, and they stared intently at Li Changfeng until his scalp tingled. "I don't believe it! We'll search you!"
The two women's hands began to frantically grope Li Changfeng's body, making him weak all over. He couldn't help but burst into laughter, "My two aunties! I really have no more wine, so please stop looking for me!"
"Hmph! We don't believe it! I just don't believe you don't have any wine! Zhiruo, let's continue searching!"
"Hey! Brother Feng! You're so naughty! You hid all the wine!"
Li Changfeng immediately felt uncomfortable all over and quickly said, "Okay, okay! I'll give it to you to drink!"
Li Changfeng took out another pot of wine and slowly poured two cups for them. The two women downed their drinks in one gulp without saying a word, exclaiming, "Not enough! Not enough!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng smiled bitterly and refilled their cups. He then drank the wine from the jugs in large gulps. The three of them drank seven or eight jugs of wine in succession. Li Changfeng was also forced to get drunk by the two women. Li Changfeng drank most of each jug, while they only drank a few cups.
Li Changfeng, his face flushed with drunkenness, exclaimed, "You guys... you're really something! You actually... drank so much with me and still haven't passed out!"
"That's right!! Don't you even know who we are? We're the modern-day drinking heroines!"
Li Changfeng gave a thumbs-up and said admiringly, "Good! I admire you!"
After saying that, he collapsed and fell into a deep sleep. The two women sneered, "Useless! You got drunk so quickly. Come on! Let's drink!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them fell into a deep sleep and collapsed onto Li Changfeng, unconscious.
The next morning.
Hua Xinglian suddenly felt something pressing against her. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she slowly opened her beautiful eyes. She was shocked to find herself lying in Li Changfeng's arms. She was even more surprised to find that something hard was pressing against her stomach, which made her face burn and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
She hurriedly tried to get up, but suddenly realized that Zhou Zhiruo was about to wake up as well. Seeing this, she quickly pretended not to know anything and lay in Li Changfeng's arms. She really didn't want Zhiruo to know that she was like this, so she could only pretend that she didn't know anything.
At the same time, Li Changfeng slowly woke up and was immediately startled to find two beauties lying on him. Coincidentally, Zhou Zhiruo also woke up, and the two women looked at each other, feeling extremely embarrassed. "Zhi... Zhiruo! You're awake! We were both drunk last night!"
Zhou Zhiruo nodded shyly upon hearing this, "Last night... it seems we both did something bad! Is that right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng gave a wry smile, "You still remember!!"
At this moment, Li Changfeng suddenly noticed that Hua Xinglian, who was lying in his arms, seemed to be pressing against her private parts. He immediately felt Hua Xinglian's whole body burning up, and he smiled bitterly, "Zhiruo! Help me! Help Hua Xinglian up, he's drunk too!"
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she quickly helped Hua Xinglian up, "Xinglian, wake up!"
At this moment, Hua Xinglian slowly woke up, her pretty face flushed, and she pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "What's wrong with me! My head hurts so much!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo slowly said, "It seems we were all drunk last night..."
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng said solemnly, "You two must never drink again, it's easy to get into trouble, you know?"
Upon hearing this, the two girls immediately recalled fragments of what had happened last night, and their pretty faces flushed red. "It won't happen again..."
After washing their faces in a stream, the three gathered together, intending to go on an adventure together.
Li Changfeng suddenly asked in confusion, "How did you manage to get out of that bamboo forest before us?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo slowly said, "We have a female array master in our camp. Her array techniques are extremely powerful. She broke this bamboo array directly, so we each went our separate ways to explore!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng nodded. "I see! It seems that the formation master in your alliance is quite powerful! May I ask what her full name is?"
Hua Xinglian slowly said, "I know who she is! She is a female array master without any sect or school, named Qinghua Yue. Not only is she skilled in arrays, but she also has considerable strength, possessing the strength of a mid-stage Grandmaster."
"Many major sects invited her to join them, but she felt uncomfortable being bound by such sects, so she didn't join any sect. Reaching this level of strength on her own is no easy feat!"
"I heard that this woman is on good terms with Jingling Shitai of Emei. Zhiruo, you didn't know that?"
Zhou Zhiruo gave a bitter smile upon hearing this, "I really don't know! I've never asked about these things!"
Hua Xinglian sighed upon hearing this, "Zhiruo! Sometimes I have to tell you, when you're out in the world, you must learn more about the various things happening in the martial arts world. Only through experience will you know what you should and shouldn't touch!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng gave her a deep look. "Hua Xinglian! You have quite the experience in the martial world! Even I didn't know these things. I truly admire you!"
Hua Xinglian gave a wry smile upon hearing this, "Senior Brother Li! If I had your strength, I wouldn't need to know so much!"
Li Changfeng chuckled lightly upon hearing this, "Hehe! What you said... seems to make some sense! From now on, don't call me 'Senior Brother' anymore, just call me Changfeng. We're friends now, aren't we?"
Hua Xinglian was overjoyed upon hearing this. She had been holding onto that matter tightly in her heart, and now that Li Changfeng had said this, she felt even more forgiving. She said gratefully, "Brother Changfeng! Thank you!"
Li Changfeng nodded upon hearing this. He already knew about this matter from Zhou Zhiruo's perspective. She was only forced into it and had even held back. He wasn't a petty person, so he didn't take it to heart.
If he were to encounter that Elder of the Flower Shifting Palace who had tried to kill him back then, he wouldn't be so polite. He would not be able to quell the hatred in his heart without killing her.
The three of them traveled slowly along the road, unhurried and enjoying the scenery while chatting happily, completely unconcerned about whether the inheritance had actually appeared or not.
Because they knew that rushing wouldn't help, and the formations inside still needed to be broken by formation masters. However, these people didn't care about other opportunities at all; they only wanted to obtain the inheritance. They could simply continue on the path of the formations they had broken and look for other opportunities along the way.
