Chapter 442: Void Fluctuations (II)
"Brother Zhang, it's been a long time.""Damn it, I got ambushed by an ancient yao last time. It took me months to recover."
"I heard the Lei Family has produced another astonishing genius. She's only seventeen and already at the Foundation Establishment realm. Unbelievable!"
"Oh, Lei Shuotong? Her talent is frighteningly high."
"Hm? How do you know that?"
"When she first revealed her talent, I was on duty at the Directorate of Celestial Observation. I was the one who recruited her."
All kinds of voices reached Lin Zheyu's ears. When cultivators discussed important matters, they usually erected barriers and used spiritual sense to convey their words. For ordinary matters, they chatted like anyone else. What Lin Zheyu overheard were trivial things, but they still delighted him. These small details helped him better understand immortal cultivators.
The dishes arrived quickly. Lin Zheyu listened in on nearby conversations while eating calmly, pairing the food with the famed spirit wine. His taste buds awakened at once. Food worth several spirit stones was indeed extraordinary. Each dish carried rich energy, smooth but not greasy, silky, crisp, juicy, or creamy.
Gulp.
The spirit wine entered his mouth. Warmth spread across his tongue, followed by a deeply intoxicating sensation. The liquid swirled, leaving a smooth trace and releasing rich, complex flavors. As it flowed down his throat, a wondrous feeling spread through his body. Lin Zheyu shivered, refreshed from within.
"Excellent wine!" Lin Zheyu praised.
A spirit wine worth a spirit stone far surpassed any mortal liquor he had tasted before.
