People nearby instinctively stepped forward to pour wine for Ling Feng.
This time, Ling Feng didn't wait for them to fill all ten bowls. He drank one bowl after another.
"Hey, hey, stop, stop, keep pouring, you keep pouring!"
Bai Yunyan snapped back to his senses and immediately got angry. He jumped up and kicked the disciples who were pouring wine twice.
"What? Have you conceded?"
Ling Feng sneered, put down the large bowl, and looked as if he hadn't had enough.
Bai Yunyan's mouth twitched at the sight.
"Heh heh, have some peanuts..."
Ling Feng had no interest in the peanuts he took out from his pocket. He waved his hand, grabbed a wine jar, and started drinking heartily.
"Haha, refreshing! Refreshing!"
Ling Feng shouted as he drank, his voice incredibly loud.
His body was filled with heroic spirit and surging momentum.
In the blink of an eye, he had drunk more than half of the entire jar, leaving everyone stunned.
Bai Yunyan couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"See, if you had eaten a few more peanuts, you wouldn't be drinking so much!"
Bai Yunyan stuffed a handful of peanuts into his mouth, sweat beading on his forehead. He was truly terrified. He had seen many drinking contests, and he himself was a veteran drinker!
However, today he met Ling Feng and was truly defeated.
He, the veteran drinker, had truly met the Zhong Kui of drinking today.
He was completely outmatched!
"Alright, alright, I concede! Kid, what's your name? I, this old man, respect you as a man of iron will and a true drinker!"
Although he felt a bit embarrassed, Bai Yunyan was a man of his word.
"Ling Feng!"
Ling Feng's mouth twitched at the words. What did he mean by a man of iron will and a true drinker?
The phrase didn't sound like a compliment at all!
Xiuxiu finally came back to her senses, looking at Ling Feng, who had stood up, with disbelief. He looked completely unfazed.
Xiuxiu was overjoyed!
So Ling Feng was the true god of wine. No wonder he was so confident. This time, she had witnessed a true miracle.
And this victory was brilliant!
Especially seeing the wary look on Bai Yunyan's face, Xiuxiu's face broke into a smile.
Old man, you have your day too!
"Elder Bai, since you've conceded, you must honor your bet. Tell us where the Jade Heart Fruit is!" Xiuxiu said with great joy.
"Heh heh, I, this old man, have never seen anyone who can drink like this. This time, I admit defeat!" Bai Yunyan raised the white flag. "I can tell you where the Jade Heart Fruit is, but that place is always very dangerous. Even if I tell you, it might not be of much use!"
Ling Feng's eyes narrowed slightly at this.
Was this old fellow trying to trick them?
"Then what do you mean?" Ling Feng frowned slightly.
"Heh heh, I, this old man, will take you there. I'm familiar with the place. Heh heh, this time we won't have a drinking contest. We'll bring wine on the way and drink as we go!"
Bai Yunyan was clearly impatient. As he spoke, he was already packing his things and beckoning his disciples to bring wine for him.
Ling Feng and Xiuxiu were stunned for a moment, then exchanged glances and smiled wryly, shaking their heads.
Bai Yunyan's personality was indeed extremely eccentric. He had refused to say anything before, but now he had completely changed.
Not only was he revealing clues, but he was also personally leading the way!
*Pfft!*
Bai Yunyan walked up to Lin Shuainan and splashed a ladle of clear liquid on his face.
"Ah! It's morning?"
Lin Shuainan immediately got up from the ground, yawning, and rubbed his face with his hand.
"Little brat, we're hitting the road!"
"Ah? Old man, where are we going? Do we have to drink again? I'm not playing dice with you this time!"
"Drink what? I, this old man, can't outdrink Ling Feng. I've lost the bet, so I'll take you into the mountains to Liangqing Pool!"
Bai Yunyan casually called out and put on a straw hat.
He looked like a simple herb collector.
Clearly, Bai Yunyan usually entered the mountains like this, and people nearby were probably used to it.
But if outsiders met him, they would never believe that this was the Medicine King, Bai Yunyan!
"Big brother! You drank him under the table? Awesome!"
Once Lin Shuainan understood what was happening, he gave Ling Feng a thumbs-up.
"Hurry up and wipe your face, we're going into the mountains!"
Xiuxiu disdainfully threw Lin Shuainan a tissue.
Now, her mood had finally improved a bit, and she was one step closer to curing her grandfather's illness.
The three of them didn't need to pack much. Instead, the Medicine King handed Lin Shuainan two jars of wine, treating Lin Shuainan like a beast of burden and giving him orders.
"If there's wine, I'm here. If the wine spills, you get off the mountain! Little brat, you'd better save some, or I'll kick you down the mountain!"
"Old man, do you need to drink while collecting herbs? Aren't you afraid of rolling down the mountain?"
Lin Shuainan grumbled as he shouldered the fifty-pound wine jars.
Bai Yunyan, holding a small pickaxe in one hand and a small shovel in the other, with a medicine basket on his back, gestured wildly and shouted, "I, this old man, have always been a little dragon in the mountains, sleeping on cliffs and urinating on precipices! If I roll down the mountain, I can take a nap halfway and wake up at my doorstep! Little brat, do you submit!"
Lin Shuainan was dumbfounded. He probably never expected that there would be someone even more foolish than himself in this world.
He gave a thumbs-up: "You're amazing, I give you a like!"
"Remember to double-tap and comment 666, let's go!"
Bai Yunyan lowered the brim of his hat and turned away. His back view had a hint of desolation.
Admittedly, with Bai Yunyan's attire, if he stood silently and walked, with the deep mountains and old forests as a backdrop, he would truly exude the aura of an otherworldly master, unfathomable!
But when they thought of his foolish behavior earlier, Ling Feng and Xiuxiu couldn't help but feel a disconnect...
However, just as Bai Yunyan led them out of the Bai Residence, a group of people suddenly gathered at the entrance!
Bai Yunyan sensed something unusual and immediately stopped with a cold face, reaching out to block the people behind him!
Ling Feng scanned these people at a glance, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
This was a fully armed team!
Leading them was a woman in a stylish camouflage uniform. Judging by her fair skin and beautiful features, she was clearly a young lady from a wealthy family.
Behind this young lady were several elders with arrogant expressions, each carrying a powerful or sharp aura.
Clearly, these were all martial arts masters.
Such a formation, gathered before the Medicine King Bai Residence, clearly indicated that they were here to cause trouble!
"Heh heh, this must be the Medicine King Bai Yunyan, right? I didn't expect you to personally come out to greet me!"
Qiu Yunyan smiled generously and taunted Bai Yunyan with arrogance.
"I, this old man, don't have time to entertain you. Speak your mind."
Bai Yunyan had no good feelings towards the woman in front of him, and he felt that she wasn't here to ask for help, but to cause trouble.
But before Qiu Yunyan could speak, a young man beside her jumped out.
He stared at Bai Yunyan, let out a disdainful cold snort, and said with an arrogant expression, "I heard you know the whereabouts of the Jade Heart Fruit. This is Miss Qiu Yunyan of our Qiu family. I am Tan Mingjun, you can call me Young Master Tan. I want you to pick the Jade Heart Fruit for me!"
Tan Mingjun's demeanor was even more arrogant, as if he regarded Bai Yunyan as his family's old laborer, whom he could order around at will.
