554 A Cup of Turbid Wine, Drinking in a Group (1)
Xu Qing ran very quickly.
As soon as he sensed the overwhelming aura approaching from outside the boundary, he wasted no time in fleeing.
This was an instinctive reaction he had developed after doing many big deeds with his captain.
Shan He and the others were not far behind, showing that they too possessed keen instincts.
Only Kong Xianglong was a little slower because he spent some time saying those words.
Xu Qing felt that Kong Xianglong was actually somewhat similar to the captain to a certain extent. It was just that the captain was slow because of greed, while Kong Xianglong was clearly doing it for his posture.
Xu Qing sighed with emotion. He felt that it would be great if the captain could join them. However, there was nothing he could do about this. This group of people clearly didnt trust the captain.
The group of them sprinted rapidly, pushing themselves to their limits. They ran tirelessly until the sky began to brighten, and by then they had covered a considerable distance. After confirming that the enemy didnt chase after them, with a sigh of relief, they slowed down and finally came to a stop on a grassy plain.
They had done too many things that night.
This was especially so after the battle with the black-clothed guards. Every one of them was in an exhausted state.
At that moment, as they relaxed and lay down, all of them felt their bodies go limp and were unwilling to get up.
It was the same for Xu Qing. Although the injuries on his body were recovering, the mental fatigue was still very intense.
Shan Hes blood qi dissipated and he felt a sense of weakness churning within him.
Night Spirit returned to her original form and lay there as though she didnt have much breath left.
Wang Chen wailed as he drew seals on himself, as though he was afraid that if he drew too slowly, he would cause a huge problem.
Kong Xianglong was also panting. However, he was clearly more relaxed than the others. Looking at Xu Qing and the others, he suddenly laughed louder and louder.
The three of them looked at each other and laughed loudly as well. A sense of joy filled their hearts, but as they laughed, they grimaced because of the pain from the wounds.
Xu Qing also smiled.
It felt good killing them! Kong Xianglong waved his hand and took out five bottles of wine. After throwing the bottles to the others, he raised it high.
Xu Qing lifted the wine bottle. Shan He, Wang Chen, and Night Spirit were all the same. The way they looked at Xu Qing was no longer as distant as before. Instead, they revealed a friendly expression.
Lets drink!
Everyone took a big gulp. After they put the bottle down, they laughed again.
However, as they drank, they thought of the youth who dreamed of becoming a Sword Holder and sighed.
Just like that, time flowed by.
Regardless of whether it was the wine, laughter, or sighs, the distance between them was quickly closed. The friendship between people would often form after experiencing some things together.
Especially when they made mistakes together...
When we return this time, were probably done for. Well definitely be locked up by the Palace Master. In fact, those close to the Holy Wave Race will even spread some rumors, especially the Yao family.
Sigh, everyone, keep a low profile during this period of time after we return. Kong Xianglong stood up and stretched his body as he spoke to everyone, especially when he looked at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing, you should be in an even worse state. I understand the Palace Master. As a Pawn of the Prison Department, the Palace Master will definitely punish you more. Kong Xianglong blinked.
Thats right. Xu Qing, youre done for.
Sigh, but Xu Qing, you have to think this way. As a Pawn, youre locked up in the Prison Department. This experience must be very beautiful.
Shan He and the others joked around with Xu Qing. At the same time, they were also watching Xu Qings reaction.
They didnt have any ill intentions. This was how they acknowledged each other and how brothers got along.
Xu Qings expression was calm as he calmly spoke.
The Pawns in Area D are all my colleagues. Im very familiar with them. If were really imprisoned...
Xu Qing glanced at Kong Xianglong and the others and spoke seriously.
I will simply be returning home. I welcome you guys to be locked up in my house.
As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, Kong Xianglong silently took a sip of wine. Shan He and the others smiled bitterly and sighed gloomily. However, the gazes they used to look at Xu Qing became even friendlier, especially Shan He. He coughed and spoke in a low voice.
That Xu Qing, can you lock me up in a cell guarded by a female Pawn...
Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked by Wang Chen.
Ignore him. Theres something wrong with this fellows brain. Whats so good about female Pawns? Xu Qing... When the time comes, make an exception and arrange a cage with more female prisoners for me.
Wang Chens eyes lit up with anticipation.
At the side, Shan He wasnt convinced and replied with a few sentences. Very soon, the two of them started arguing.
This scene was very different from when Xu Qing had seen them before. Clearly, everyone had many faces, and it would change depending upon whether the other was a stranger or a friend.
Night Spirit swept a cold glance at them with disdain in her eyes. She then took out a handful of flesh melon seeds and ate them.
Kong Xianglong smiled at Xu Qing and asked about Xu Qings divine art.
Xu Qing, your poison is indeed potent, but what really intrigues me is your ability to make your hand transparent. You forcefully entered the other partys Heavenly Palaces and pulled out their golden cores. This cultivation art... is extremely bizarre!
As soon as Kong Xianglong spoke, the three of them also looked at Xu Qing. They were also curious.
When Xu Qing heard this, he didnt hide anything. He lifted his hand and waved it. Immediately, his right hand became transparent and appeared in front of Kong Xianglong.
This is a cultivation art imparted by my master. It has a certain relationship with the Bizarre Fiend Race.
Kong Xianglong sensed it and praised.
After this cultivation art is fully mastered, you will probably be able to make your entire body enter this state. After saying that, he seemed to think about it.
