Zhao Huai was also flushed from drinking, but his mind remained clear, and he wasn’t drunk. He could feel this mildly tipsy state.
After drinking, so words that were not ant to be spoken kept bubbling up in his mind.
Gu Tianji and Zhao Huai chatted about trivial matters and their past experiences.
Gu Tianji recounted how he embarked on the path of cultivation, his romantic affairs, and the interesting and fun things he encountered when he went down the mountain to the Mortal World.
Zhao Huai selectively talked about his daily life in Jinzhou for the past three years.
“By the way, where is the girl you like? Where is she now?” “I don’t know. I’m looking for her too.”
Sohow, the two ended up talking about won.
Gu Tianji poured a bowl of wine and glanced at Zhao Huai, murmuring, “Your story is quite complicated. Over these twenty years, you have traveled to many places, and this ti you have co all the way to the Spiritual Mountains. You haven’t found your beloved yet?”
Zhao Huai held the bowl, his eyes lost in thought. “No, but every ti I search for her, I feel that I’m getting closer to her. That’s the truth.”
Gu Tianji laughed mockingly, “Why do you think she ran away? Did she tall in love with soone else? In my opinion, a woman should be kept by your side, or else you never know when she’ll run away. You’re too naive.”
Zhao Huai didn’t like what he heard and frowned, lowering his head, “Who says that liking soone ans tying them to yourself? If you think I’m naive, that’s your opinion; who cares.”
Gu Tianji smiled, not taking it too seriously. He burped and said leisurely, “It’s admirable that you have such a loving heart. I don’t know if you’ve heard this saying before: sotis eting soone is destined, and reuniting is the best outco. I’m giving you this saying now, hoping that you’ll reunite soon.” Zhao Huai drank a bowl of wine, his eyes blurry but clear.
Happiness, warmth, sadness, regret, and bitterness flashed through his eyes one by one. In the end, he smiled with relief, “Maybe Madam had so difficulties. Loving soone ans making her happy. If she’s happy, I don’t mind. Who says that loving soone ans being inseparable and tying them to yourself? Is that love? Like you said, perhaps parting is for a better reunion…”
When he said this, Zhao Huai couldn’t continue. He took a deep breath, covered his head, and buried his face in the table, choking with sobs in a voice that nobody could hear, “I can only talk like this, but in fact, I’m heartbroken. I wish everyone in the entire Mortal World and the whole world could help find her and let them know that I like this girl. I just hope there’s only one girl in the world… who likes .”
Toward the end, Zhao Huai’s voice beca smaller and smaller. He was really drunk, and he didn’t know how many jars of Fire Dragon Wine he had drunk. His head buried in the table, he mumbled incessantly.
Between dreams and waking, Zhao Huai’s Golden Core illusion within him underwent subtle changes.
It shone brightly and beca very solid.
Relief ca from unburdening the long-suppressed feelings in his heart, like a flood bursting out, crashing into the wall of the Eighth Stage.
Accompanied by a “boom,” it seed like sothing had shattered.
In his drunken stupor, he had actually stepped into the Eighth Stage from the Seventh Stage in the Golden Core Realm.
At this mont, the strongest Golden Core in the world, the Eighth Stage Golden Core, had quietly erged.
Zhao Huai was completely unaware in his dream that his state of mind had risen a level.
Nobody in the tavern paid attention to this change.
Everyone was drinking and talking about recent events and the Fairy from the neighboring sect.
The shopkeeper old man appeared to be at ease, as if he was used to this.
After an unknown amount of ti had passed,
Zhao Huai slowly woke up from lying on the table and looked around blankly.
The bustling tavern was now nearly empty.
Drinking really did ss things up, as this showed.
Zhao Huai regretted it, as he had almost forgotten that he still had important matters to attend to.
For so reason, he felt refreshed and invigorated, but there was a lingering sadness in his heart. Nonetheless, he felt more at ease now compared to before.
Walking to the door, he gazed at the towering ten-thousand-feet- tall mountains in the distance, exhaled, and suddenly felt a surge of heroic spirit in his chest.
“That kid, he had the ti to sneak away and drink here!”
At this mont, a big-nosed elder walked in through the door and scolded the still-sleeping Gu Tianji.
Zhao Huai imdiately recognized him as Master Ruan Ban from Sky Forge
Mountain. He asked curiously, “Senior, what’s going on?”
Logically, Master Ruan Ban was supposed to be making a sword in the Mansion, right?
They had already agreed that Zhao Huai would pick up the sword seven days later.
Seeing Zhao Huai, Master Ruan Ban’s expression softened slightly and said,
“You want to forge an extrely powerful sword, right?”
“Yes.”
Zhao Huai nodded gently.
He initially requested a strong enough sword because his sword only killed powerful enemies. Naturally, the stronger the sword, the better, especially one that could withstand the continuous improvent of his sword technique and Sword Intention.
“However, the sword I’m making now uses the Thousand-year Unrefined Jade
Sword essence, which is very incompatible with the sword itself. We must change to a stronger sword essence.” Master Ruan Ban said solemnly.
“Oh? What’s special about this sword essence?”
Zhao Huai didn’t understand sword-making and asked in confusion.
Master Ruan Ban explained earnestly, “Of course there is. A qualified life-bound flying sword is made up of three main parts: the sword body, sword soul, and sword edge. The sword body is the vessel, usually borne from spiritual treasures of Heaven and Earth. The sword edge is for killing and needs the best materials. The sword soul is the most particular, as it balances the entire sword and bears its subsequent growth. It needs the essence of living beings as a sword guide..”
