Chen Yan looked at these loose cultivators...
Each one had tattered clothes, draped in fur coats, sporting scruffy beards, and covered in the kind of stale greasy sll of soone who hasn’t bathed for days, with oily hair to match.
Where’s the slightest hint of a proper cultivator here?
This feels like a pure bunch of rcenary scoundrels!
The food on the table was quite sumptuous, though Chen Yan couldn’t recognize most of the dishes. He only identified a portion of roast at that should be beast at because he felt warmth rising in his stomach after eating it.
As for the others, they remained unidentifiable, especially a plate of green-leafed vegetables Chen Yan couldn’t recognize. Perhaps it’s so kind of local vegetable from the Domain Realm.
But there’s just this one plate of vegetables on the table—one could expect in such a harsh climate that vegetables are probably the rarest and most precious.
Brother Jin Jia was in high spirits, unexpectedly picking up the wine jar, downing it in big gulps, emptying the jar right there.
After putting down the wine jar, he wiped his mouth forcefully, smiled at Chen Yan, and said, "Now that our bond is here, as your elder brother, there are so things I have to clarify with you."
Laughing, he continued, "I’m the eldest of the Gu Family. I have three younger brothers and a younger sister in the family. Once we swear brotherhood, they will be your siblings too! I need to make that clear to you!"
Chen Yan didn’t speak, but suddenly a strange thought ca to mind...
"I don’t need to introduce myself; you already know. In my generation, my second brother’s na is Gu Yin Yi, with cultivation at the Celestial Human Realm, working at Sword Box Pass. My third brother, Gu Tong Bing, serves as a combat technique instructor at Immortal Platform Yuxian Pavilion.
Of course, you may have heard of my most outstanding sibling in our generation, famous across the Domain Realm—Gu Qingyi, my youngest sister!"
Ha, your youngest sister, yet now your mother—Chen Yan muttered internally.
While thinking that, he spoke loudly, "Gu Qingyi, at fifteen, headed to Prison Suppression Platform, fought for five years, and before twenty, had leveled up to Celestial Human—such a renowned na, acclaid across Domain Realm, I’ve naturally heard of her!"
Brother Jin Jia chuckled: "For you to hear my youngest sister’s na isn’t surprising; few in the Domain Realm don’t know it.
However... Gu Qingyi is her na while traveling outside, but her real na isn’t that..."
Chen Yan imdiately laughed inside—well, well, well! Gu Qingyi, you like to hide your real na, don’t you? But now your own brother is about to spill it.
"In my Gu family generation, the second characters of nas are sorted by Gold, Silver, Copper, Iron, and the third characters by Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding.
I’m the eldest, so I’m called Jin Jia, second brother is Yin Yi, third brother is Tong Bing, so Gu Qingyi being my youngest sister, she should be called..."
"Gu Tie Ding?" Chen Yan blinked.
"Exactly!"
"..."
Chen Yan burst into laughter.
Gu Tie Ding?
Really? What kind of good family nas their daughter Tie Ding?
Gu Tie Ding?!
No wonder Gu Qingyi is dissatisfied with her real na, looking ready to kill if it’s ntioned.

Brother Jin Jia, being carefree and unruly, after both drank another jar of wine, he slamd the table and yelled at Chen Yan, "Brother! Let’s swear brotherhood!"
Chen Yan looked at Brother Jin Jia, thinking, "Not a problem for , as long as you don’t regret it later..."
The two then stood up, Brother Jin Jia slamd the table, yelled aloud, quieting all diners, as he raised a bowl of wine, "Everyone, during this trip to Evil Land Mountain, I slew many ferocious beasts and earned significant credits! But the greatest achievent of this venture was eting my brother here!
We fought side by side at Evil Land Mountain, sharing hardships and sheltering under the Heavenly Dao. Surviving with difficulty, we returned alive!
This brother of mine is a true hero. I admire his character and feel our bond of loyalty. Today, with you all witnessing, we’re calling upon Heavenly Dao to beco brothers!!"
Upon finishing, the loose cultivators erupted in cheers, so even turning red as they raised their wine bowls, shouting loudly, "Congratulations to Brother Jin Jia!!"
Brother Jin Jia then led Chen Yan to the table, both kneeling, drinking a bowl of wine, bowing together, then supporting each other’s arms, faces flushed with excitent, and changed their addresses.
"Brother!"
"Brother Jin Jia!"
"Brother!!"
"Brother Jin Jia!!"
"Bro..."
"Alright, alright, that’s enough." Chen Yan thankfully urged Brother Jin Jia to sit, "Stop yelling, let’s drink."
"Of course we’re drinking, but not just with , your elder brother. You should drink with others, all brothers, too!"
With that, nearly dozens of loose cultivators in the hall suddenly knelt down, raising their wine bowls.
"With Heavenly Dao above, brothers united in loyalty!"
Brother Jin Jia laughed heartily, "Everyone, our newcor lad here is Wang Chuyi. Henceforth family, we’ll be close as one, sharing life and death!"
The group responded loudly, then raised their bowls, drinking it all, afterward swarming towards Chen Yan.
"Brother Chuyi! Co, co, have a bowl with ! I’m Tong Lie, ranked thirteenth in the group, you’ll call Thirteenth Brother from now on!"
"Haha, I’m You Hu, ranked twenty-seventh in the group, henceforth call Twenty-Seventh Brother!"
"I am..."
Chen Yan was stunned!
Before he realized it, he had been made to drink more than twenty bowls, drunk to the point of dizziness, finally turning to Brother Jin Jia, "But Brother Jin Jia... all these..."
"Let my brother know, all present are sworn brothers with , Brother Jin Jia! They’ll be Happy Brothers to you, Chuyi, too! Our Snow Cliff Pass Brotherhood is loyalty as firm as gold, sharing hardship!"
