Under One Person: My Inner Realm Connects to All Worlds!
Chapter 152 The Rogue Emperor
Chapter 152 The Rogue Emperor
The middle-aged man stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I am Liu Ji, and I do some small business here. Since you two young friends are new to the place, how about I be your guide?"
Before the two could react, Liu Ji enthusiastically put his arms around the shoulders of the two Han Lis and said generously, "Come, come, it's fate that we met. I'll take you to try the most famous Zhiweixuan in the Huangdao area of Tianshiyuan!"
The two Han Lis were taken aback by this sudden enthusiasm, but seeing that the immortals around them seemed to take Liu Ji for granted, they reluctantly followed along.
Inside Zhiweixuan, the carved beams and painted rafters are filled with the sounds of celestial music.
Liu Ji, familiar with the place, asked for a private room and ordered a table full of delicacies: a tortoise and crane longevity soup made with century-old Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, dragon scale jelly, and a crystal platter made with mountain treasures in a thick sauce, as well as eight-treasure honey-glazed crispy baby phoenix...
After obtaining the essence blood of the divine beasts from the world of Non-Human Beings, Han Yun used the method of breeding and hybridizing beasts recorded in the First Emperor's underground palace to fuse various bloodlines and eliminate rejection reactions with his inner energy, thus giving birth to a large number of low-end divine beasts.
Among them were remnant creatures such as dragons, fire phoenixes, black turtles, and unicorn horses, which were tamed by Bai Qi and others. This made the items sold in the Heavenly Market Real, eliminating the need for internal energy to transform them.
"Don't be so polite, young men!"
Liu Ji personally poured two cups of Jade Yang Dew, which was as white as molten gold, for the two of them and introduced it as follows: "This Jade Yang Dew is brewed by diluting the precious liquid with earth marrow. It has the effects of strengthening yang, cleansing marrow, nourishing skin and rejuvenating. Come and have a taste!"
The TV version of Han Li looked at the table full of delicacies he had never seen before, his Adam's apple bobbed, and then he exchanged a glance with the comic version of Han Li.
"We didn't expect the immortals here to be so kind, even treating us to a meal," the two thought to themselves.
Without further hesitation, they drank the Yu Yang Dew in their cups in one gulp, and immediately their faces turned red and their blood surged.
Seeing the two of them like this, Liu Ji slapped his forehead and pretended to be annoyed, saying:
"Oh dear! Look at my memory! You two young brothers are still mortals. The spiritual energy contained in this spiritual food is too great for you to handle!"
As he spoke, there was no trace of apology on his face. Instead, his eyes darted around, and he chuckled, "In that case, these delicacies shouldn't be wasted. Let me take care of them for you!"
Having said that, he unceremoniously picked up his chopsticks and began to devour the food. He stuffed dragon liver, phoenix wings, crane-shaped mushrooms, and other delicacies into his mouth, his mouth greasy with oil, and he even offered his comments:
"Mmm! This phoenix wing is cooked just right, tender and not dry!"
"Wow! This dragon liver is so delicious, it melts in your mouth!"
"Tsk tsk, Jade Sun Dew paired with Qilin Horse Meat, absolutely amazing!"
The two Han Lis were dumbfounded, their blood and qi surging, unable to move at all, and could only watch helplessly as Liu Bang swept away the entire table of spiritual food like a whirlwind.
In the TV series, Han Li barely managed to circulate the weak spiritual energy within his body, attempting to digest the overwhelming surge of blood and qi, and managed to say with difficulty, "Senior... will we be alright like this?"
With his mouth full of food, Liu Bang waved his hand indistinctly, "Don't worry, don't worry, I won't die. At most, I'll feel a rush of blood to my head and a fever for three to five days. Just consider it a cleansing of my bones and marrow!"
The manga version of Han Li's forehead veins throbbed as he gritted his teeth and said, "Senior... were you... doing this on purpose?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bang paused, then put on an extremely innocent expression: "Oh dear, young brother, how could you think of me like that? I, Liu Ji, am an upright and honest person, how could I possibly wrong you?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the burly man at the next table couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Come on, Liu Ji, you scoundrel, others may not know what kind of person you are, but don't we know?"
Liu Bang, exposed but not flustered at all, instead glared defiantly and said, "What do you know? I'm helping them! These spiritual foods are highly nourishing; although they may cause temporary discomfort, they are very beneficial to cultivation!"
As he spoke, he turned to the two Han Lis and gave them a "kind" smile: "My two young brothers, once you get through these few days, I guarantee your cultivation will increase greatly! Remember to thank me then!" The drama version of Han Li was already burning up, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and managed a wry smile: "Thank you...thank you for your guidance, senior..."
The comic version of Han Li closed his eyes and regulated his breathing, thinking to himself, "Liu Bang is cunning, but what he said seems to be true. Although this spiritual food makes my blood and qi surge, my meridians are indeed becoming stronger and slowly widening."
Just then, Liu Bang suddenly put down his chopsticks and slapped his forehead: "Oh dear! I almost forgot about the important matter!"
He stood up and gave the two a bright smile: "Young men, take your time to digest this. I have other important matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now!"
After saying that, before the two could react, Liu Ji flashed out of Zhiweixuan, taking a pot of Drunken Immortal Wine with him as he left, leaving behind only a mess on the table and two Han Lis who were burning up.
The waiter appeared at the opportune moment, smiling, and said, "Esteemed guests, this is three hundred pieces of white jade coins. May I ask who is in charge of the bill?"
The two Han Lis: "..."
The two Han Lis exclaimed, "How can you be so shameless?"
The two Han Lis exchanged glances, and the anime-style Han Li said in a deep voice, "We are new here and have no money."
The guests at the surrounding tables burst into laughter. The burly man with the bushy beard slammed his hand on the table and said, "I knew this old Liu Ji would resort to such tricks!"
The waiter sighed, unfazed. "In that case, gentlemen, why don't you help out in the kitchen to pay off your debt? According to the rules, washing dishes for a day is worth ten small white jade coins."
In the TV series, Han Li urgently said, "But we still need to go back to the Seven Mysteries Sect!"
"rest assured."
The waiter laughed and said, "This is a paradise on earth. You can work here for half a month and then go back in the blink of an eye."
Just as the two were sighing and resigning themselves to their fate, a voice suddenly rang out.
"I'll pay their bill!"
A young man dressed in a black robe stood up and flicked three large white jade coins from his sleeve.
Then, with a flick of his sleeve, a circular beam of water-like light appeared before the two of them.
In the water mirror, Liu Bang lay on a cloud, happily drinking the celestial wine he had swiped, and smugly muttered to himself, "These two lads are too honest. You're teaching them the harsh realities of the world!"
The man turned to Han Li and his companion and smiled, "And remember, this man's name is Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty. He also came to this place by chance, but he couldn't shake his roguish nature. However..."
He gave the two of them a meaningful look: "This can be considered a lesson for you. This place may be nice, but people's hearts are no different from those in the mortal world."
Then, the young man patted the two men on the shoulders to calm their blood and qi.
The two Han Lis then stood up and bowed to the young man, saying, "Thank you for your help, senior!"
The young man waved his hand and said, "It's alright. I was also tricked by that old scoundrel when I first arrived. By the way, my name is Wei Ying, courtesy name Wuxian, and I am known as the Yiling Patriarch."
