Bab 31: Chapter 31: It's as Easy as a Wave to Embrace Death
...
In a small town outside the Sunset Great Forest, let's call it Sunset Town.
This town, located on the edge of the Sunset Forest, is mainly populated by Soul Masters. People who come here are mostly those who want to hunt Soul Beasts in the Sunset Forest and exchange their fur, claws, etc. for money or to obtain soul rings and promote their cultivation.
This small town serves as a resting place, providing accommodation and food, like an inn for those who come here.
In a tavern in the town.
"Haha, Zeng Yi, my dear brother, I really have to thank you! Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get a thousand-year soul ring. Come, let's drink!" Xiong Yi, with a red face, laughed and said to Zeng Yi, raising his glass.
"Haha, it's nothing. I also thank you for taking me out. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how long I would be trapped inside," Zeng Yi also had a flushed face as he replied to him.
He picked up his glass and clinked it with Xiong Yi's before downing it in one go.
Zeng Yi does know how to drink. He was already good at drinking before he transmigrated. However, it is the first time for him to drink in this body, which he finds a bit uncomfortable.
But he still has to drink. As the saying goes:
"In life, there are three inevitable things: honor, death, and hangover."
"Hahaha, brother, you drink well. Come, let's have another one!" Xiong Da also raised his glass and said boisterously.
"Cheers!"
Although Zhang Hou and Zhao Li Zong usually appear stable, they are not weak when it comes to drinking. In an instant, they all become drunkards.
While Kali also drinks, she doesn't drink as heavily as the others. She quietly entertains Xiao Ju on the side and feeds her.
"Little brother, now that we're out of the Sunset Forest, what are your plans?" Zhao Li Zong took a sip of wine, put down his glass, and asked Zeng Yi.
"Hahaha, why don't you join our team, Brother Zeng Yi?" Xiong Zhong, with a simple smile, suggested.
"Hehe, I still have to go back home. I can't go with you guys," Zeng Yi smiled and declined Xiong Zhong's proposal. Although Zeng Yi likes this group of people and their personalities are good, he still needs to go back to Lala Village to let the village chief know he is safe. It has been so many years, I wonder if the village chief will erect a monument for me?
Thinking like this, Zeng Yi feels that it might be possible.
Because of the existence of the Ronin skill, he cannot gather among crowd, as it would lower his strength and affect his cultivation speed.
"Ah, that's a pity," Xiong Zhong said with some regret, but he didn't dwell on it and continued to drink with others.
Hearing Zeng Yi's response, Zhao Li Zong's expression dimmed, feeling a bit regretful. He also had some fantasies of keeping Zeng Yi in his team, but he knew it was impossible. With Zeng Yi's strength as a Soul Elder before the age of twenty, such talent could not be retained by a small team. Moreover, he might be a descendant of a big power, so it would be a great honor to befriend him.
"Come on, why talk about these things? Let's drink well. It's not like we won't see each other again," Zeng Yi raised his glass and said with a smile.
Seeing Zeng Yi like this, they all laughed and lifted their glasses to toast.
"Oh, there's a beauty over there! Come and have a drink with us, sweetheart."
Just as everyone was having a good time, an inappropriate voice disturbed them, and everyone fell silent.
"Who the fuck said that?" Xiong Zhong exploded. With his temper, how could he let his companion be harassed? He slammed the table and cursed at that person.
Zeng Yi also looked over. There were six big men sitting at the table behind them, and one of them was teasing Kali.
Zeng Yi also took a look at their strength. They were all Soul Elders at around level thirty. He couldn't understand why, on their side, there were six people: one Soul Ancestor, four Rank 3 Soul Elders, and one auxiliary Soul Grand Master, yet they dared to come and cause trouble. Were they drunk or out of their minds?
"Ha~, do you have the ability to accompany us for a drink?" Kali was not an easily provoked woman. She directly sneered at them without showing any weakness.
Zhang Hou and Zhao Li Zong, seated on their spots, remained silent, but their gloomy expressions revealed that they were not in a good mood.
"Haha, fiery temperament. I love taming spirited horses like you," the man who teased Kali earlier laughed out loud. His companions joined in the laughter.
The people in the tavern didn't leave; instead, they eagerly gathered to watch the dispute. Most of the people in this town are Soul Masters who deal with Soul Beasts every day. Their favorites are good wine and beautiful women, and, of course, watching such spectacles.
In this town, Soul Masters fighting each other is a common sight.
At this moment, the tavern owner came out to mediate. When he heard that Zhao Li Zong offered to compensate the damages, he happily left. Such incidents frequently happen in his tavern, but as long as the troublemakers pay up, he doesn't bother to intervene.
"It seems like you guys are itching for a fight!" Xiong Yi boomed, like thunder. He stood up, flexing his thick neck, emitting cracking sounds.
"Wow, it looks like things will get interesting." The people across the table also stood up, their aura bursting out, causing waves of energy to sweep through the tavern. They unleashed their martial souls, shining with white and yellow light, with a formidable momentum.
"Damn it..."
Seeing this, Xiong Zhong also stood up, releasing his own martial soul and shaking the space with his soul power.
"Wait, Xiong Ge."
"What's wrong? They've already crossed the line. How can we just let it slide?" Xiong Da, with his thunderous voice, asked Zeng Yi in confusion.
"Hehe, I mean, let me handle it."
Zeng Yi chuckled and put down his glass.
At this moment, a cold wind blew through the entire tavern, passing through everyone's bodies, surprising them.
As the only Soul Ancestor in the whole tavern, Zhao Li Zong's gaze was fixed on Zeng Yi as he spoke.
Zeng Yi's figure disappeared from his seat.
On the other side, the six big men only felt a cold wind brushing against their bodies, followed by a bone-chilling sensation mixed with the scent of death. Yes, this feeling—they've experienced it countless times in the Soul Beast Forest. They were so familiar with it. Just now, the God of Death seemed to brush past them.
What just happened?
At the same time, Zhao Li Zong saw Zeng Yi's figure disappear for an instant, and then reappear on his seat.
The entire tavern fell silent as the wind died down.
Zeng Yi raised his right hand, grabbed the glass, and downed the wine in one go. He put the glass down and casually said one sentence.
"If you wish to embrace death, it's as easy as a wave!"
His words resonated in the tavern, and everyone fell silent.
"What just happened?" Xiong Zhong and Xiong Da, who were a bit slow, had no idea what had just occurred.
Zhang Hou and Zhao Li Zong looked at the six people across from them. They noticed a thin red line on their necks, making them swallow involuntarily.
So fast! So powerful!
The six troublemakers stood motionless in a daze, their minds blank, not knowing what they were doing.
"Awake from your drunken stupor?"
Zeng Yi glared intently at the six men, his tone indifferent, as he asked.
