Music came and went.
The lighting was soft and suggestive, and wine glasses swayed.
Xu Yuan picked up his glass, set it down again, and said:
"Miss Xi, I'm Xu Yuan."
"Just call me Xi. But I've never seen you before... Are you here doing something for Qianqian?" Xi asked.
“Yes. We're clearing out the Monsters in the surrounding mist. She's too busy to handle them all,” Xu Yuan said.
"That's kind of you," Xi said.
"It's mostly my friends doing the work," Xu Yuan said.
"I saw your friends head out just now. Did they go hunting those Monsters?"
"Yes."
Beneath the table, Xi formed a Spell Seal with her fingers and said:
"When I arrived, I saw a few wounded Monsters in the alley behind the Bar. Why not let your friends know?"
"I will. Thank you."
Xu Yuan immediately took out a Communication Talisman and spoke a few quick words into it.
"Handsome Xu, I feel like we've known each other for years. You're welcome to visit my home sometime," Xi said.
"I'd be delighted, but right now I need to wait for my companions to return."
"Then shall we chat?"
"Sure."
To Xu Yuan's surprise, Xi knew events throughout human history like the back of her hand.
She could even recite a great deal of cultivation knowledge from several previous Epochs backward.
Talking with her was a pleasure.
Before long, the Bar door opened.
Xi turned at once and greeted Qianqian, then began chatting with her.
To Yang Xiaobing and the others who had just come in, the woman sitting at the Bar Counter and chatting with Qianqian
looked like a regular at the Bar.
She appeared to have nothing to do with Xu Yuan.
Yang Xiaobing and her two companions went straight to the Bar
