Chapter 57

These three people spoke in extremely low voices, and none of the other patrons upstairs could hear them. However, Duan Yu had abundant inner strength and keen senses. Although he did not intend to eavesdrop on others' private conversations, he naturally heard every word.

The big man glanced at Duan Yu, either intentionally or unintentionally, and saw him with his head lowered in deep thought, clearly having overheard their conversation. Suddenly, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he grunted heavily. Duan Yu was startled, his left hand trembled, and with a clink, the wine glass slipped from his hand, fell onto the table, and then dropped to the ground.

Just as the wine glass was about to hit the ground, it suddenly stopped in mid-air, then flew up and landed in the palm of Jing Tian, who had extended his hand.

Jing Tian placed the wine glass back on Duan Yu's table and said with a light laugh, "Be careful, don't waste good wine."

Duan Yu, hearing this, quickly thanked him and then thought of the big man's gaze, looking at him somewhat timidly.

The big man smiled slightly and said loudly, "I didn't expect to misjudge today, the scholar has good skills." Then, he turned to Duan Yu and said, "What's wrong, brother? Why so nervous? How about the two of you come over and have a drink with us?" He then looked at Jing Tian.

Jing Tian shrugged and said, "I don't mind if you join us with this table full of leftovers. Besides, my seat is better than yours. Why don't you come over instead, so as not to waste such a good spot?"

Jiao Feng, hearing this, didn't say much more. He picked up the wine and dishes and walked over to sit down at the table. Duan Yu had been wanting to talk to the two of them, so he was naturally happy to join them.

Duan Yu instructed the waiter to bring over cups and chopsticks. After sitting down, he quickly said, "May I ask for your names?"

Jiao Feng laughed and said, "Why ask if you already know? Let's be informal and have a few bowls of wine. It's much more fun that way. Once we know each other's identities, the fun will be gone."

Duan Yu laughed and said, "Brother, you must have mistaken me for someone else, thinking I'm your enemy. But I like the idea of being informal. Please, please!" He poured a cup of wine and drank it in one go.

Jiao Feng, seeing Duan Yu's words and actions, laughed heartily and said, "Brother, you're quite straightforward."

He then called the waiter and said, "Waiter, bring three large bowls and another ten pounds of sorghum wine."

The waiter and Duan Yu were both startled by the ten pounds of sorghum. The waiter cautiously asked, "Sir, can you finish ten pounds of sorghum?"

Jiao Feng pointed at Duan Yu and said, "This gentleman is treating us. Why worry about the cost? If ten pounds aren't enough, bring twenty!"

The waiter, hearing this, quickly replied, "Yes, yes, I'll go right away."

Soon, with the help of two waiters, several large jars of wine were brought to the table and placed beside them.

Jiao Feng then picked up a jar and filled three large bowls to the brim.

The strong smell of the high-proof wine made Jing Tian wrinkle his nose, and Duan Yu was also taken aback; he had never drunk like this before.

Jiao Feng raised his bowl and said to the two of them, "Come, let's start with ten large bowls."

Duan Yu, feeling helpless and thinking about his recent experiences, clearly seeing Jiao Feng as an adversary, forced himself to raise the bowl.

But when Jing Tian heard Jiao Feng's words, he firmly refused, saying, "I don't drink. I only enjoy tasting. Drinking like this takes away the fun. You two go ahead."

Jiao Feng, seeing Jing Tian's scholarly appearance and not associating him with Murong Fu, said indifferently, "Since you have martial arts skills, you should be more relaxed in the world of martial arts. But if you don't want to, that's fine. Do as you please."

Duan Yu, hearing Jiao Feng's words, wanted to hug his legs and cry, "I'm a scholar too..."

After that, Jing Tian leisurely tasted the wine while watching the two drink...

When Duan Yu, worried about cheating and Jiao Feng's health, suggested stopping, he threw his empty wallet. Jing Tian chuckled and casually threw a silver ingot, paying the bill before Jiao Feng.

Jiao Feng, seeing this, laughed heartily, nodded at Jing Tian, and then pulled Duan Yu, nodding at Jing Tian again, saying, "Brother, you do as you please. We have some matters to attend to, so we'll take our leave."

Hearing Jiao Feng's words, Jing Tian sat leisurely and said to Jiao Feng, "Your background is extraordinary. If you have any doubts in the future, you can find me. I'll be staying at Leigushan. If you can't find me, just shout in the mountains, and I'll come in a moment. Remember that?"

"Really? My background?" Jiao Feng, hearing Jing Tian's words, was a bit puzzled. His parents were at Shaolin, weren't they? "Brother, you must have mistaken me for someone else," Jiao Feng said to Jing Tian.

"Ha ha, you'll know in the future. Remember what I said, okay~"

Although Jiao Feng was puzzled, he didn't think much of it. As Duan Yu said goodbye to Jing Tian, Jiao Feng pulled him downstairs.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Jing Tian continued to wander around the city and then flew back to Leigushan, where he continued to stay.

In the month that Jing Tian spent practicing, he discovered the secret of the innate realm.

Previously, Jing Tian thought that compressing inner strength into a liquid state was the innate realm. But during his practice, when he tried to use the power of heaven and earth, he found no change.

After much thought, he tried to mix his consciousness with his inner strength for an attack, and it finally worked. It turned out that the so-called power of heaven and earth was just a state of mind.

Jing Tian found this very impractical. Mixing consciousness was not as effective as using consciousness directly for an attack. In the martial arts world, the only gain was finding a cultivation method to strengthen the two women, but the martial arts of this world were useless to him.

No matter what techniques the opponents used, in Jing Tian's eyes, they were slow. No matter how complex their techniques, he could knock them out with one punch...

Therefore, Jing Tian often sighed, "Being invincible is lonely..."

After that, Jing Tian, finding that his absorption efficiency of qi in this world was much lower than in the Dragon Ball world, stopped practicing inner strength and focused on learning the I Ching and the Plum Blossom Numerology.

One day, reminded by Jarvis, Jing Tian saw Jiao Feng and Ah Zhu driving towards him on the screen.

It turned out that, as the plot developed, Ah Zhu was injured at Shaolin Temple and was discovered by Jiao Feng. They then went to seek medical help from Xue Muhua, but they didn't know that Xue Muhua had already been called back by the Xianyao group and had gone to Tianshan.

Hearing that Xue Muhua had come to Leigushan, Jiao Feng had no choice but to drive Ah Zhu to Leigushan. When Jiao Feng first heard the name Leigushan, he naturally thought of what Jing Tian had said to him at Songhelou.

Seeing Jiao Feng, who had to carry Ah Zhu up the mountain because the mountain path was impassable for the carriage, Jing Tian had a thought and flew into the back of the mountain to hide, preparing to show off a bit...
