Chapter 521 (2): It’s Most Enjoyable to Drink Wine in the Cultivation World
Standing with his back to the counter, Wang Dun sighed and asked, "When are you leaving? It's not that I'm unwilling to host you, but it's best that you don't visit Sweeping Villa right now. All you'll come across are some boring and tiresome social engagements."
Afterward, Wang Dun told Chen Ping'an the detailed address of the immortal ferry station located in the Green Oriole Nation.
Chen Ping'an walked out from behind the counter and chuckled, "Then I'll trouble Villa Master Wang with asking someone to bring us two horses. We won't stay overnight in this small town, and we'll immediately continue our journey instead."
Wang Dun waved a hand, calling over a disciple of the villa who had rushed over to the wine shop and stood on a distant street corner after hearing news of the villa master's appearance. This was a handsome middle-aged sword practitioner. Wang Dun was skilled in a wide variety of martial arts, and he was the undisputed number one in the Five Mountain Nation in all of these disciplines, whether it was fist techniques, qinggong, saber techniques, sword techniques, spear techniques, and so on.[1]
As a result, Wang Dun's direct disciples were also skilled in a wide variety of different martial arts. The middle-aged disciple who had rushed to the wine shop was one of Wang Dun's prized disciples and someone who had inherited the essence of his sword techniques. He was a top three sword practitioner in the cultivation world of the Five Mountain Nation, and after seeing Chen Ping'an and hearing his master's instructions, he didn't forget to cup his fists and bow in respect at the sword immortal in azure before leaving the wine shop, saying, "Disciple Wang Jingshan of Sweeping Villa pays his respects to Sword Immortal. If Sword Immortal travels past Sweeping Villa in the future, then I beseech Sword Immortal to please provide this junior with some guidance on sword techniques."
"Alright," Chen Ping'an smiled and replied with a nod.
"Guidance on sword techniques? A single return trip to and from the mountains by the flying sword will be enough to defeat you, Wang Jingshan. You might as well be honest and directly say that you want to see the bonded item of a sword immortal. Do you not feel embarrassed coming up with a nonsensical excuse like this?"
Wang Jingshan was clearly familiar with his master's temper, so he didn't feel awkward at all as he smiled faintly and bid farewell.
It wasn't long before Wang Jingshan returned with two fine horses from the mountain villa, and in addition to him, there were two extra steeds carrying a young boy and a young girl. These two youths were his junior brother and his junior sister.
The three people and five horses had traveled from Sweeping Villa to this nearby county city.
Most people in the villa wouldn't have dared to ask Wang Jingshan to travel to the wine shop together to disturb their master and witness the impressive demeanor of a legendary sword immortal, but these two youths were the favorite disciples of Wang Dun, giving them the ability to nag Wang Jingshan until he had no option but to grit his teeth and bring them along.
Wang Dun and the two outsiders were no longer at the wine shop, and they were instead standing outside the entrance of an inn located nearby.
