Chapter 971: Drunkenness
Chapter 971 – Drunkenness
Thinking about the original decision, Gong Lao had some complicated feelings.
With the strength Xu Chuniang had shown these days, she was a bit stronger than the other Human Immortals who had just ascended.
But those who had the confidence to enter the fighting arena, which one didn’t have some real skills, the immortal crystals of the fighting arena weren’t that easy to get, and almost every victory had to be paid for in blood.
Just that this is, after all, someone else’s choice, he persuaded and persuaded, it is not good to interfere too much.
“Since you have made up your mind, then I won’t say anything more, I can only wish you all the best.”
Seeing Gong Lao’s gloomy expression, as if she had taken a path of no return, Xu Chuniang pretended to be relaxed and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t die easily.
I still owe you quite a few Immortal Crystals, so I have to return these Immortal Crystals to you anyways.”
Gong Lao shook his head breathlessly, “Cutting down the Accumulated Snow Pine with me, you can earn a thousand or so Immortal Crystals at the end of the year, and after a few years of hard work, you will be able to walk out of Zhangwei Mountain, why take this risk?
Like me now, I have already achieved the body of an Earth Immortal, there is also a well-paid business, usually can also earn some immortal crystals by the way, isn’t it also quite good?”
“I know that Elder Gong advised me for my own good, but I want to become stronger, settle down in a place with Immortal Veins, and continue to learn about formations.”
Xu Chuniang’s eyes revealed longing and anticipation, “All of this requires a large amount of Immortal Crystals, where is a little bit of Immortal Crystals enough, I’m not afraid of the risk, I’m only afraid of the lack of opportunity.”
“Alright, I know what you mean, say it again and the food will get cold, eat the food.”
Xu Chuniang but smiled and did not poke at Gong Lao’s words.
This Yu Chun Lou’s table is equipped with an array, these dishes will not get cold even if they are left for days and nights, Gong Lao deliberately said this, but he just saw that he couldn’t persuade her, and his heart wasn’t happy about it.
But although she is grateful to Gong Lao, in the matter of whether to enter the arena, but has a different idea.
Immortals nine realms, the human immortal realm is the lowest realm, just rely on cutting snow pines, raising golden feather pheasant and doing labor, efforts for thousands of years, but also can not save how many immortal crystals, not to mention the immortal crystals will be used to cultivate, impact a higher realm.
The two stopped talking and had a peaceful meal.
After the meal was full, Gong Lao touched his propped up and rounded belly and left the Jade Spring House, squinting his eyes in satisfaction.
“In the past I have laughed at those old friends, a little bit of immortal crystals all smashed on the food and drink, today I realize that people that is not living in vain, not in vain ascension trip.”
Xu Chuniang nodded her head in agreement, the banquet at Yu Chun Lou was indeed good, she also ate quite a lot of it, it was indeed a delicious flavor that she had never tasted before.
“If Elder Gong likes it, in the future when I earn immortal crystals, I will invite you again.”
Gong Lao sniffed and couldn’t help but glare at Xu Chuniang.
“For that table just now, nearly five hundred Immortal Crystals, almost catching up with my salary for a month, even if you’re rich, it’s not the way to spend it.
In the future, if you make money in the fighting arena, you can t just squander …… hiccups!”
Xu Chuniang pursed her lips and smiled, “Gong Lao’s lesson is, I’ve memorized it, you old man watch the road well, don’t fall into the pool.”
“Hey, don’t look like I’ve had a lot of wine, I’m sober! It’s your first time in Floating Jade City, you’ve grown a lot of eyes, haven’t you? Let’s go, I’ll show you around Floating Jade City at night!”
Unable to withstand Gong Lao’s enthusiasm, Xu Chuniang had no choice but to follow in his footsteps, once again walking through the brightly lit market.
Gong Lao was really a bit drunk, he had always been a moderate drinker, perhaps the fine wine from Yu Chun Lou was too fragrant, making him unknowingly lose his temper and drink a bit too much, accidentally getting himself drunk.
He pointed at a bright and colorful store and regretted it.
“Back when I first came to Floating Jade City, there was nothing here, and then Floating Jade City went through several expansions before it gradually evolved into what it is today. Had I known this, I should have spent money to buy these places back then, alas, a loss!”
Gong Lao had a pained look as if he had lost hundreds of thousands of immortal crystals.
This place was far away from the Immortal Veins, and when he was still a Human Immortal, no one wanted this area at all, and the price was so low that he could take it for a few hundred Immortal Crystals.
Unfortunately, Gong Lao couldn’t predict what would happen thousands of years later, and missed out on a great opportunity for nothing.
Xu Chuniang looked at the store in front of her, not knowing what to say to comfort Gong Lao.
However, Gong Lao didn’t need her comfort, he pointed at the store and spoke heartily before continuing to walk forward.
When he walked to the commissioning hall, he shook his head sadly as he looked at the bustling scene in front of the door of the hall.
“When I first ascended, the commission hall was just established not long ago, and there were even quite a few rewards for becoming a commission hunter …… However, I thought that these commissions were too troublesome and gave little reward, so I gave up.
If I had persevered until now, I would have been able to stay in the Second Heaven anyways, and even had a chance to travel to the Third Heaven.”
Gong Lao heart that regret ah, looking back to look back, in fact, he just ascended that will, left them the opportunity is still quite a lot.
However, so many opportunities he did not grasp one, lived for 20,000 to 20,000 years, so far is still a small Earth Immortal.
Xu Chuniang coughed lightly, “Gong Lao, since the past has already passed, let them all pass, there is no need to cling to the past.”
Gong Lao was immersed in regret, completely unable to listen to Xu Chuniang’s words, and every time he went to a place, he would have to take a long breath and sigh, lamenting the unfairness of fate.
“O Heavenly Dao, since you recognized my Dao and allowed me to ascend to this Immortal Realm, why did you make the first half of my life so difficult?”
Thinking back to the hardships over the years, Gong Lao only felt that he was holding a breath in his heart, Earth Immortals wanting to break through to the Heavenly Immortal realm needed many, many Immortal Crystals.
In order to save up Immortal Crystals, he had really paid too much.
Originally, a few hundred years ago, he had the opportunity to impact the Heavenly Immortal realm.
But he somehow got in the way of a certain “big shot”, and was not only sent to ZongDongTian, but also took out a large amount of Immortal Crystals as compensation in order to settle the matter.
Gong old hate ah, but the situation is stronger than others, he offended the person although only the ground immortal, but he has a live in the three heavens of the heavenly immortal sister, and the other side of the hard touch, is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
“The arena is certainly very dangerous, but the danger is also accompanied by opportunities and benefits, the three heavens, a lot of statement of the sky immortal, but also from the arena after countless times of life and death to kill out.
As long as one can come out alive from the fighting ground, they will also be drawn in by many great powers and have a great future.”
Elder Gong patted Xu Chuniang’s shoulder, his tone despondent.
“Back then, I didn’t enter the fighting arena, in fact, it was because I was afraid, afraid of dying in the fighting arena without a sound, without even a person to collect my corpse for me, I’m not as good as you!”
Xu Chuniang sighed softly, “Gong Lao, you are drunk.”
“Drunk? Maybe, huh.”
A trace of disorientation appeared in Gong Lao’s eyes, which was then replaced by pain, all these years he has worked diligently, really hard, but the result, it is not as good as it should be ……
