Chapter 1246: Speaking of Parting Between Cups
“Joyless! Do you have business with me?”
Inside the general’s residence, Taba Xuanwu stepped into Maple Leaf Courtyard and greeted Ye Qing loudly. The young man was currently sitting underneath a tree.
“Take a seat, brother.”
Ye Qing got up and motioned for Taba Xuanwu to take a seat. Then, he poured the general a cup of wine while saying, “Apologies for disturbing your secluded practice, brother. I hope you won’t mind.”
“Bah, I was just stabilizing my cultivation level. Doesn’t matter if I enter seclusion or not.”
Taba Xuanwu drained the wine in one gulp before exclaiming in pleasant surprise, “Is this the Westwind Hunt? It tastes amazing!”
“As expected of you, brother. You recognized it immediately,” Ye Qing paid him a compliment while pouring him another cup of wine.
This time, Taba Xuanwu did not drain it all in one gulp. Instead, he took a small sip while looking Ye Qing up and down. Then, he exclaimed with a hint of shock, “It’s only been a day, and both your injuries and your exhaustion are almost all gone. Body wise, I must admit that you are my superior.”
No one knew better than Taba Xuanwu just how injured and exhausted Ye Qing was after their fight. He also knew that most people would take half a month at least to recover from such injuries. Even he, now a body-tempering Half-Sage, would need five to six days to recover to the extent Ye Qing had in one day. It was practically a miracle.
“You flatter me, brother.” Ye Qing said modestly, “I had some opportunities, that’s all.”
“‘Some opportunities’ my ass! More like some miracles!” Taba Xuanwu said enviously before asking, “Anyway, you didn’t call me over just for a drink, right? Speak!”
