Chapter 103 - 70: Changes in the World
The one who had climbed up to the corner of the wall was the eldest of the current generation of the Yin Yang Family, the Siming, with snow-white hair. Baring his teeth in a smile, he waved at Li Guanyi and then, with an "ah" sound, tumbled forward, falling down, accompanied by a flow of light invisible to the naked eye, as the Mystic Turtle appeared, supporting the old man.
"Hahaha, long time no see, Zu."
The old man was in high spirits upon seeing Li Guanyi.
Li Guanyi did not want to ask how the old man had managed to get inside the Xue Family home.
The East Continent Stargazing School is one of the Three Sects of the World outside society, and the Yin Yang Family is a prominent school; the paths of the two have some similarities, mainly focusing on the spirit and qi. Shaking Light could come in unnoticed, so it wasn’t difficult for the Siming, who was clearly much older than Shaking Light, to have such abilities.
Li Guanyi said something to his aunt, took a few pieces of silver, and led the old man to the outside tavern’s shop, where today the elder ordered slightly better wine, three coins a cup, which was worlds apart compared to the one coin a cup wine.
That meant it had less water mixed in.
The old man tilted his head back and drank it down in one gulp, the strong alcohol making his cheeks flush red.
After smacking his lips, he expressed his approval, "Not bad, not bad."
"It’s much better than the imperial wine in the palace; that’s too mild, lacks a kick, and only gets you slightly tipsy. They’re no different than sweet dew and yogurt if they can’t get you drunk."
Li Guanyi did not agree with the old man’s opinion.
