Mo Honglian, with a smile, took another green wine glass from her storage ring and placed it in front of Ye Wuxie.
The green wine jug was as smooth as green jade, with a bottle-shaped body, a long and slender handle, and a small, exquisite spout.
Ye Wuxie felt that the wine jug alone was of considerable value.
"Swish"
When Mo Honglian gently held the green wine jug and poured wine into the glass, Ye Wuxie immediately smelled a refreshing aroma. The fragrance was so strong that even the countless flowers nearby could not mask it.
The green wine was as clear as water, and when poured into the green glass, it looked excellent. Ye Wuxie, who had never tasted wine before, immediately felt the urge to try it.
He then raised the glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Hmm?"
The expected spicy taste did not appear. Instead, it was sweet and refreshing, flowing smoothly down his throat, leaving a fragrant aftertaste. After entering his stomach, a warm sensation rose, making him feel very comfortable.
"Good wine!"
After finishing the glass, Ye Wuxie's eyes lit up, and he praised it.
Seeing Ye Wuxie finish the glass, Mo Honglian refilled it for him.
"Delicious, right! Big Brother Ye, this wine is called Bamboo Leaf Green, brewed by my second sister!"
Xiao Baiou said with a smile, revealing the name of the wine, her tone filled with pride.
Mo Qingye, hearing her younger sister's praise, gently pinched Xiao Baiou's arm, a bit shy.
Fingering the green wine glass, Ye Wuxie smiled at Mo Qingye and said, "Bamboo Leaf Green, Mo Qingye, both are beautiful names. I never thought that Miss Qingye had such exquisite skills, truly remarkable!"
Ye Wuxie's praise was sincere, and Mo Qingye's eyes sparkled with delight. A gentle smile appeared on her pure face, like a spring breeze, warm and graceful, as she looked at Ye Wuxie, feeling very happy.
Xiao Baiou, seeing Mo Qingye's charming smile, her big eyes twinkled, and she scanned Ye Wuxie and Mo Qingye's faces, as if searching for something.
"Little Brother Wuxie, I originally wanted to invite you to join us, but I thought you might be practicing. I didn't expect you to come out on your own."
Mo Honglian's lips parted, her voice soft and pleasant.
Lin Yingluo, sitting beside her, nodded slightly. She was extremely beautiful but had a cold demeanor, especially sitting under the moonlight, next to the flower terrace, exuding a sense of isolation from the world.
Ye Wuxie laughed and drank the second glass of wine. As he drank, he glanced around and noticed the faces at the other tables.
At the easternmost stone table, three people were sitting, one of whom was particularly noticeable. Although his face was ordinary, his aura was unique, deep and vast, and it was the same person Ye Wuxie had noticed on the white marble platform, whose cultivation had reached the late Essence Spirit stage.
A few tables away, three large, fat men were sitting, their tables filled with various foods, which they were eating and drinking with great enjoyment, occasionally taking large gulps of wine, looking very content.
Three to five tables away from these three fat men was the table where Ye Wuxie and the four women were sitting.
Further west, about ten meters away, three graceful women were sitting at a stone table. They were silent, heads slightly tilted back, eyes closed, as if basking in the moonlight.
...
These three graceful women could not see the three men sitting at another table ten meters away, who were dressed in peculiar attire. One of them was chuckling, his cold eyes filled with lust, constantly scanning the three graceful women, his left hand caressing a black shadow wrapped around his right arm.
At the westernmost stone table, Feng Cai Chen was sitting alone, his fair hand caressing the rough texture of the stone table, his expression calm, eyes closed, like a gentleman, gentle and refined, without any hint of sharpness.
Holding the green wine glass with three fingers, Ye Wuxie retracted his gaze. He knew that these geniuses, who seemed to be immersed in their own worlds, were actually constantly observing others, just like him.
The final battle of the Hundred Cities War would begin the day after tomorrow, and the people in front of him were the true opponents. If he could learn more about these potential opponents, no one would refuse, after all, knowing oneself and the enemy ensures victory.
Ye Wuxie was no exception.
His gaze met Mo Honglian's, and she immediately understood his thoughts.
She took a light sip of wine and pointed to the unique man at the easternmost table, lowering her voice.
"That person is Dou Tian, from the Desolate Heaven Main City. He is a few years older than me, with an incredibly powerful cultivation that no one can fathom. In fact, three years ago, he was already qualified to participate in the previous Hundred Cities War, but he did not join, for unknown reasons."
Pausing, Mo Honglian's tone became more serious.
"He is known as the second-ranked genius among the top hundred main cities in the Eastern Land!"
Hearing this, Ye Wuxie was shocked. He was not surprised that Mo Honglian knew this information and did not doubt its authenticity.
"It seems that Dou Tian is a very difficult opponent. If we encounter him, we must be cautious."
Ye Wuxie expressed his thoughts, and the four women nodded in agreement.
"The three fat men who are constantly eating and drinking are not ordinary either. They come from the Yueshan Main City. Their fat bodies, which seem to be a burden, are actually their greatest strength, with immense power and a robust physique, capable of breaking low-grade mundane weapons with their bare hands!"
Glancing at the three fat men, Mo Honglian said.
Ye Wuxie nodded and remembered this.
"As for the three pale-faced women, they come from the most mysterious of the top hundred main cities, the Floating Shadow Main City. It is said that this city has produced many assassins, with speed and soul power surpassing their peers, like a hidden thorn in the darkness, extremely dangerous."
Ye Wuxie looked at the three graceful women and noticed that they had maintained the same posture, heads slightly tilted back, without any change.
When mentioning the three men in peculiar attire, Mo Honglian's tone carried a hint of disgust.
"These three come from the notorious Snake Spirit Main City, known for their treachery and lust, causing harm to many young women. It is said that each of them keeps a snake-type beast, spending their days with snakes, making them powerful and difficult to deal with."
The other three women also showed expressions of disdain and disgust, and Ye Wuxie understood why their auras were so consistent, as they all kept snakes, subtly influencing their personalities.
When Mo Honglian's gaze fell on Feng Cai Chen, who was sitting alone, a look of admiration crossed her face!
"Feng Cai Chen, the first genius of the Sword Casting Main City, also known as a sword talent that appears once every fifty years. He gained fame throughout the Eastern Land at a young age and is considered the most promising genius among the top hundred main cities, with limitless potential!"
After introducing Feng Cai Chen, Mo Honglian noticed a surge of enthusiasm and battle intent in Ye Wuxie's eyes!
She then recalled the moment when Ye Wuxie's demeanor changed upon feeling the sharp aura from the Tianbai Inheritance when they left the Yuan Yang Hall.
"Little Brother Wuxie, do you know Feng Cai Chen?"
Mo Honglian asked with a hint of surprise.
"Not really, we've only met once. At that time, I didn't know about the Hundred Cities War, and he left me a message."
Hiding his battle intent, Ye Wuxie replied.
"What message? Big Brother Ye! Tell us quickly!"
Xiao Baiou said with genuine curiosity, her face lighting up.
Lin Yingluo was also very curious. She knew that Ye Wuxie had lived in the Longguang Main City's Murong family since childhood and had never left the city, so how could he have met Feng Cai Chen? Could Feng Cai Chen have visited Longguang Main City?
Seeing the four women's curiosity, Ye Wuxie said, "You've always been wondering why the three people from the Purple Fire Main City targeted me before the Yuan Yang Hall opened. This all started when I met Feng Cai Chen."
Ye Wuxie then recounted the story of his encounter with Feng Cai Chen and Yue Chengfeng, omitting the part about the Sun Moon Star Ban, and revealing the rest without reservation.
He omitted the part about the Sun Moon Star Ban not because he didn't trust the four women, but because everyone has some secrets that only they know.
"Hmph! No wonder! The three guys from the Purple Fire Main City are no good! Clearly, they couldn't defeat Feng Cai Chen and wanted to vent their frustration on Big Brother Ye. After hitting a hard wall, they even held a grudge! They are truly despicable!"
Mentioning the Purple Fire Main City, Xiao Baiou was filled with righteous indignation. She was simple and kind, unable to imagine how Zhou Huo, Yue Chengfeng, and the red-haired youth could be so twisted and perverted.
As Ye Wuxie finished his story, the four women finally understood the reason and knew why Zhou Huo and Yue Chengfeng had targeted them from the beginning, because they were Ye Wuxie's companions.
"Hey! Big Brother Ye, you haven't told us what Feng Cai Chen said to you yet!"
Xiao Baiou's big eyes were filled with questions, and she continued to ask Ye Wuxie.
Drinking the Bamboo Leaf Green in one gulp, Ye Wuxie felt a surge of passion, his eyes gleaming.
"Feng Cai Chen told me that he would be waiting for me in the Hundred Cities War."
As soon as these words were spoken, the four women immediately sensed the intense battle intent and enthusiasm, as if two sharp swords were about to clash, to see which one was sharper!
"Thump, thump, thump..."
Suddenly, footsteps came from a distance, instantly drawing everyone's attention. Ye Wuxie looked up, his gaze becoming curious.
Because he saw one of the three men from the Snake Spirit Main City suddenly stand up and walk towards the stone table where Feng Cai Chen was sitting alone, his eyes cold but filled with naked provocation.
The remaining two men from the Snake Spirit Main City remained seated, the excited young man with lustful eyes named Lin She. He watched his second senior brother Liu She, who was walking towards Feng Cai Chen, with a look of amusement, while their senior brother Yuan She closed his eyes, expressionless.
As Liu She approached Feng Cai Chen, his aura gradually spread, the late Essence Spirit stage fluctuations faintly rising, his momentum directly challenging Feng Cai Chen!
"Buzz"
Feng Cai Chen, sitting alone, his clothes suddenly fluttered without wind, his expression mysterious, his eyes suddenly focusing, and a sharp aura seemed to awaken!
"Within ten meters of me, leave an arm."
The sharp voice slowly echoed, Feng Cai Chen's bright eyes suddenly looking at the approaching Liu She!
"Clang..."
Liu She, who originally intended to provoke Feng Cai Chen, suddenly heard the sound of a sword, a sharp aura overwhelming him, as if the person in front of him was no longer Feng Cai Chen but a giant sword!
Liu She felt that if he took another step forward, Feng Cai Chen would not hesitate to attack, and once he attacked, he would surely take his arm!
He had seen this in the Tianbai Inheritance.
"Second senior brother, come back."
Just as Liu She's face changed and he was filled with anger, his senior brother Yuan She's voice rang in his ear. He coldly snorted, his eyes filled with coldness: "Feng Cai Chen, in the Tianbai Nine Peaks, you dared to seize the eighth peak in front of us three. We will settle this the day after tomorrow!"
With these harsh words, Liu She returned to his table.
Ye Wuxie, who had been observing, noticed that everyone's expressions changed when Liu She mentioned the eighth peak of the Tianbai Nine Peaks.
"It seems that the Tianbai Inheritance was also very exciting!"
Ye Wuxie thought to himself, his expression flickering. He then asked Mo Honglian for another jug of Bamboo Leaf Green and two more glasses, and, to the surprise of the four women, he stood up and slowly walked towards the stone table where Feng Cai Chen was sitting.
