Chapter 367
Jiang Chen’s words left Guo Jing slightly stunned, and the others frowned one after another.
This young man before them,
was actually a disciple of Snow Moon City?
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded: “Indeed.”
Seeing this,
Guo Jing could not help but frown slightly: “Then I wonder, little brother, what is the purpose of your visit this time?”
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow: “Could it be that Hero Guo holds some prejudice against my Snow Moon City?”
Immediately following,
before the other party could speak, he continued: “Didn’t I just say it? Hero Guo’s character is worthy of admiration, and I came here naturally to get to know you.”
To tell the truth,
among everyone here, including those from the Complete Perfection Sect,
there were only two people who interested him.
One was the Guo Jing before him,
and the other was Zhou Zhou Botong, known as the Old Urchin.
Regarding Guo Jing, just as he had said, the man’s actions were absolutely worthy of being called a great hero, acting for the country and the people; such a person, even he could not help but want to meet.
As for Zhou Zhou Botong,
it was purely because of the man’s interesting personality and conduct.
However,
Zhou Zhou Botong was currently with Wang Wang Chongyang, Huang Huang Yaoshi, and the others, so it was not convenient for Jiang Chen to go over directly.
And apart from these two,
he was not the least bit interested in Wang Wang Chongyang, even though the man had broken through to the Divine Wanderer Realm.
As for whether his arrival
would be recognized by Wang Wang Chongyang and the others, Jiang Chen was not worried in the slightest.
Some time ago, he had learned how to use the Netherworld Imperial Boundary from Ye Ye Ruoyi and had even improved it.
With his current strength in the Celestial Immortal Realm,
once he activated it, let alone Wang Wang Chongyang and the others, even a Land Immortal like Mo Yi would never be able to detect anything unusual.
“Ahem~”
Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Guo Jing could not help but cough lightly.
Although he led a group of martial artists to guard Xiangyang City not for the sake of such empty fame, being praised to his face like this still made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
“May I ask your name, young friend?”
Just then,
someone asked.
Judging by Jiang Chen’s attire and temperament, he clearly did not look like an ordinary disciple of Snow Moon City; he might even be a scion of some noble family from the Northern Li Dynasty.
Even though they had only arrived in Snow Moon City recently,
they already had some understanding of it.
It was said that Snow Moon City was headed by three City Lords and was a force formed by the collective of various martial arts factions and noble families within the Northern Li Dynasty.
And the disciples of Snow Moon City,
for the most part, were also disciples from these martial arts factions and noble families.
As for outsiders wanting to join Snow Moon City, it was not impossible, but it was extremely rare.
Clearly, the conditions for joining Snow Moon City were incredibly harsh.
Although they did not know the specific requirements, they had managed to find out one of them.
That was to clear the Ascending Heaven Pavilion!
And according to the rumors they had heard, it seemed that in recent times, no one had managed to clear the Ascending Heaven Pavilion.
One could imagine,
wanting to clear this Ascending Heaven Pavilion did not seem easy.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled lightly: “If you all don’t mind, you can call me Young Friend Jiang or Brother Jiang.”
Hearing Jiang Chen’s words,
the group looked at one another, and then one of them said: “Seeing that you are only around twenty years of age, in that case, we shall address you as Young Friend Jiang.”
Although the young man before them was a disciple of Snow Moon City,
he had come for the sake of Guo Jing, so they could not say much.
Moreover,
since the other party admired Guo Jing so much, his character likely could not be too bad.
Subsequently,
this person glanced at Guo Jing and asked: “Then I wonder, Young Friend Jiang, is your visit this time, as you just said, merely to meet Brother Guo, or... are you here representing Snow Moon City?”
“Naturally, the former.”
Jiang Chen glanced at the man and smiled slightly: “Furthermore, if I were here representing Snow Moon City, then the ones I would be meeting would not be you all, but the Complete Perfection Sect, wouldn’t you agree?”
“That does indeed make some sense.”
The man nodded, and then seemed to want to ask something else, but was interrupted by Guo Jing.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this.”
Guo Jing looked at Jiang Chen and smiled: “When traveling, meeting is fate. If Young Friend Jiang doesn’t mind, adding a seat is no trouble. Come to think of it, although I am new to Snow Moon City and don’t know much about it yet, the wine here in your Snow Moon City is truly excellent.”
“Haha!! Brother Guo is right, this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine is indeed excellent and very much to my taste.”
“It’s just a pity that the shopkeeper here says this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine is limited per person and cannot be enjoyed to one’s heart’s content.”
Guo Jing, beside him, nodded repeatedly, a look of regret appearing on his face.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen
smiled and said to them: “This Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine was created by our Snow Moon City’s First City Lord, Baili Baili Dongjun. Not only is the brewing process complex, but it also has requirements for the brewer’s cultivation. However, by the same token, if a martial artist drinks this wine, it is of no small help to their cultivation, so it is only natural that the daily production is limited.”
“So that’s how it is! No wonder I felt my internal Qi surge after drinking this wine!”
“Indeed, I feel that if I could drink this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine for a month straight, it wouldn’t be impossible to advance my cultivation further.”
“I didn’t expect there to be wine that helps with cultivation. Truly, the world is vast and full of wonders.”
“Yes, yes, just getting to drink such unique wine makes this trip worthwhile.”
“It’s just a pity.”
“Sigh~”
Thinking that such special wine could not be enjoyed freely, everyone showed expressions of regret.
“That’s simple.”
Jiang Chen smiled slightly at the group and reached out to summon Shopkeeper Xie.
In fact, when he first entered, he had been spotted by the sharp-eyed Shopkeeper Xie, who was about to come over but was stopped by a look from him.
When Shopkeeper Xie walked over,
Jiang Chen smiled and said: “Shopkeeper Xie, have someone bring over three more jars of this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine.”
Shopkeeper Xie nodded hurriedly upon hearing this.
“Th-three jars?”
Once Shopkeeper Xie left, Guo Jing and the others stared at Jiang Chen in dumbfounded silence.
When they had asked for wine from Shopkeeper Xie earlier, although there were unlimited wines, this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine was different.
No matter how many people were at a table, they could only order two pots; not a single drop more.
And now,
the other party had actually ordered the shopkeeper to bring two whole jars??
Guo Jing looked at Jiang Chen and said pointedly: “It seems Young Friend Jiang’s status in this Snow Moon City is somewhat different.”
“Not really.”
Jiang Chen chuckled: “While this Seven-Lantern Starry Night Wine is limited for outsiders, there is no such requirement for disciples of Snow Moon City.”
