Chapter 3869 How can anyone be sober?
Xiao Yi was shocked.
It's not an exaggeration to describe it as the overwhelming waves in my heart.
Did this old man reveal his true identity with just one word?
However, Xiao Yi is Xiao Yi after all.
No matter how frightened and incomprehensible my heart was, there was still nothing wrong.
Except for a look of surprise that flashed across his eyes for a moment, there was no abnormality at all.
From being shocked to calming down, it only takes a moment.
If he guessed correctly, it should just be...
"Xiao Yi?" Xiao Yi said indifferently and looked directly at the old man, "Are you kidding me?"
really.
"Haha." The old man chuckled, "Aren't you kidding me too?"
"Wearing a mask conceals the face; concealing the aura conceals the identity."
"Then the name Yi Xiao is obviously not your real name."
Sure enough, the old man just changed the names by coincidence.
What the old man said was 'Xiao Yi', not 'Xiao Yi'.
Xiao Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But he didn't know that the old man had been observing all the changes in his eyes, and even captured the flash of surprise before.
Xiao Yi's eyes returned to indifference, "Didn't you also hide your aura?"
"Senior is at least a strong emperor, but he only shows the ultimate strength of the emperor."
The old man blinked, "Young man, can you see my cultivation strength?"
Xiao Yi sneered, "It seems that you are very confident in your ability to conceal the strength of your aura."
The old man chuckled, "I'm not as confident as my little friend."
The old man said this, but with a doubtful tone, he looked at Xiao Yi with questioning eyes.
Obviously, the old man is still waiting for the answer to the question.
"No." Xiao Yi shook his head, "I just have the most superficial sense of crisis."
"The feeling you give me is even stronger than that of famous emperors like the Red Tiger Emperor."
"However, it is far inferior to the level of Emperor Lan Ying."
"That's why I made some guesses."
"Now it seems that I guessed it right."
"Haha." The old man smiled and stroked his gray beard, "My little friend is pretty good."
If you look at it more clearly, the old man's gray beard is actually spotless.
No, it seems that compared to this white dress, it looks more flawless and pure.
This old man is probably an extremely particular person.
The old man was about to open his mouth and say something.
Xiao Yi took the lead and said coldly, "Your Excellency is looking for me, but what's the matter?"
"If you just want to chat with me, then I'm sorry, I just want to be alone."
Xiao Yi's tone and words were quite rude.
The old man chuckled lightly and said, "Then I won't disturb my little friend."
As he said this, the old man had no intention of leaving at all. He was still sitting but did not speak any more.
Xiao Yi frowned.
For some reason, his intuition told him that talking to this old man would be quite dangerous.
This kind of danger does not come from a sense of crisis; it is more like... a feeling of trouble.
However, this was a banquet for the Amber family, and there were indeed a lot of empty seats at his table, so it was impossible for him to say anything to drive the old man away.
Xiao Yi simply closed his eyes and sat quietly.
As soon as this banquet is over, he will find a way to leave the Amber family.
…
Time passes by hour by hour.
The power of heaven and earth in the sky is always surging.
This proves that the new emperor's inspection tour is not over yet.
This emperor is still declaring his majesty to all living beings in this world.
…
Two days later.
In two days, Du Yandou ate the entire banquet by himself.
Neither Xiao Yi nor the old man moved their chopsticks at all.
But Du Yanjian did not sit down all the time, but sometimes ate, sometimes drank, and sometimes got up and wandered around. He looked like a guy who came here wholeheartedly to enjoy the banquet.
The one-eyed man was sitting and getting up and walking, so unknowingly, the old man in white got up and sat down at the one-eyed man's position, which was next to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi was aware of it, but he pretended not to know. He kept his eyes closed and waited quietly.
"Little friend." At this time, the old man suddenly spoke again.
Xiao Yiquan pretended not to hear.
The old man chuckled, "My little friend's self-cultivation skills really surprised me."
There was a clang.
The old man held the wine glass and touched Xiao Yi's wine glass.
That crisp sound made it difficult for Xiao Yi to pretend not to hear.
Xiao Yi opened his eyes and glanced at the old man, "Sir, don't you think it's rude to disturb people's purity?"
The old man chuckled, "This banquet is very lively, with the sound of cups being pushed and cups being passed and the sound of commotion everywhere."
"How do you think this place is so clean?"
"Is it possible that this little clinking of glasses by me can be compared to the disturbing sounds of countless creatures here?"
Xiao Yi frowned.
He didn't know how to continue the conversation.
When talking to this old man, I don't know why, but his words are not sharp at all. They are just ordinary words, but they are the most uncomfortable.
Xiao Yi fell silent.
The old man, however, easily brought the conversation back to the point, "Little friend?"
The old man said, looking between Xiao Yi and the two wine glasses.
Xiao Yi suppressed the discomfort in his heart and said indifferently, "I don't like drinking when I'm away from home."
"Why?" the old man asked with a chuckle.
Xiao Yi said coldly, "In danger, if you can't stay awake, you are looking for death."
The old man chuckled and said, "A warrior has a great level of cultivation, but this is just a cup of tea..."
Xiao Yi took the lead in picking up the wine glass, shook it, put it to his nose and took a sniff, "The wine is very alcoholic."
"It contains a variety of natural materials and treasures, and the brewing method is quite special."
"It looks like the contents of a cup are like nectar and jade liquid, which will satisfy your cravings; in fact, it is a cup of Chinese medicine that is a great tonic. It has an excellent effect of soothing physical and mental fatigue. It can nourish the body on the outside and soothe the mind on the inside."
After all, it is a banquet for the Amber clan to entertain powerful people from all walks of life, so there is no malicious intention, so it can be ingenious.
"Isn't this good?" the old man asked with a chuckle, "I see that my little friend is very tired."
"Your Excellency, you are joking." Xiao Yi said indifferently.
"Just by smelling the smell of alcohol, it feels like the breath has penetrated my whole body and penetrated all my limbs and bones."
"If you really drink this wine, I'm afraid you will be in a trance in a short time and completely fall into the gentle land of the wine pool. Even the energy of your cultivation will be difficult to dispel the alcohol."
"Isn't it good to be drunk?" The old man chuckled and said, "It won't do any harm, but it will do a lot of good."
"Look." The old man glanced at the surrounding banquet, "Every living creature doesn't care at all."
Xiao Yi said indifferently, "Others belong to others, and I belong to myself."
"I prefer to be sober."
"Haha." The old man chuckled, "90% of the creatures in the world are confused and 90% are drunk. There is no good in being sober and out of place."
"Besides, are you sure you are awake?"
The old man raised his wine glass and said, "No matter how many excuses there are for the creatures in the world, whether they are high-sounding, ambitious, or sad, they still cannot escape the fact that they cannot help themselves."
"It's just that I feel convinced..." The old man paused, chuckled, and then drank down the wine in his hand.
"Is there any sane person in this world?"
