Chapter 69: Encounter with the Little Thief Again

  Ye Tianfan really didn't know how to start eating with this big table of dishes, so he put down his chopsticks and looked at his senior sister.

  Shijie Xie Qianqiu was already enjoying her food, and Ye Tianfan found that his master's eating was also very pleasing to the eye. Although Shijie ate quickly, she looked like she was savoring each bite slowly, with a dignified and elegant demeanor.

  Ye Tianfan couldn't help but feel stunned, and his mind involuntarily flashed back to Wang Xiaoling, whom he had met in the Flame Mountain Cave, and his soul was already flying high.

  "What are you looking at? So absorbed!" Xie Qianqiu's voice, which was both shy and somewhat excited, pulled Ye Tianfan out of his own world.

  Yè Tiān Fán awkwardly said: "Nothing, I was just thinking about some things and lost in thought." Although the reason was a bit far-fetched, Yè Tiān Fán still considered it to be a pretty good excuse.

  Ye Tianfan was a bit embarrassed, at this time the shopkeeper came to Ye Tianfan's rescue. The shopkeeper walked up to the two of them and said: "Gentlemen, the wine you ordered has arrived. This is our store's best wine, I'm sure it will satisfy both of you."

  Ye Tianfan picked up the wine bottle, poured a cup, smelled it, and indeed it was very mellow. He raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.

  "Good wine, indeed good wine! Not only does it leave a fragrant aftertaste, but also warms the heart!" Ye Tianfan exclaimed after downing another cup.

  "The shopkeeper smiled and said: 'As long as our guests are satisfied, that's all that matters. Our wine and dishes here are famous far and wide.'"

  Ye Tianfan said again: "Right, how much of this wine do you have? If there's a lot, I'll buy some more and save it for later."

  "Sir, you've come to the right place! The fine wine here is personally brewed by our boss himself. Not only is the quality guaranteed, but we also have a lot of it. I don't know how much you'd like, sir?"

  "Hmm, you can sell me as much as you want and I'll buy it. Let's see how much you can sell." Ye Tianfan said after some thought.

  The shopkeeper was shocked, first by Xie Qiu's beauty ordering a table of dishes, and now Ye Tianfan wanting as much wine as he pleased.

  Although surprised, the shopkeeper still said respectfully: "Sir, can you wait a moment? I'm not in charge of this kind of business. Let me go inform the boss to make a decision, okay?"

  Ye Tianfan nodded and said: "Then go quickly, remember to tell the shopkeeper that he can take out as much wine as I will buy, understand?"

  The shopkeeper nodded hastily and left in a hurry, apparently eager to inform the boss of this big business.

  After seeing Xiao Er leave, Ye Tianfan looked at his own master sister and found that his master sister was drinking in small mouthfuls, and it seemed like more than one cup.

  Ye Tianfan hastily snatched the wine cup from his senior sister's hand and said, "Senior sister, as a girl, if you drink too much, you won't be able to get married. It's better not to drink anymore."

  Qianqiu said with a calm expression: "Not to mention marrying out, even if I couldn't marry out, it wouldn't be surprising. Others would still need to ask for my consent before marrying me."

  Ye Tianfan saw that his senior sister couldn't be persuaded, so he didn't say much more. He drank wine quietly while waiting for the boss to arrive.

  Soon, a woman in her late 20s, dressed in luxurious clothes, came before Ye Tianfan and the other. Although the woman had concealed her cultivation, Ye Tianfan could see at a glance that she was a cultivator, and one who had reached the Yuan Ying stage.

  A noblewoman came before Ye Tianfan and the other, smiling as she said: "You two, I am the proprietor of this wine shop. Are you two planning on drinking a lot?"

  Ye Tianfan hadn't spoken yet, but Xie Qianqiu, who was slightly drunk, said: "Sister, your wine is really good to drink, it's really delicious."

  The boss's wife smiled and said: "Sister, I have wine here that is suitable for women to drink. It tastes good and won't get you drunk. Do you want some, sister?"

  Xie Qianqiu happily said: "Really, I want it, no matter how much, after drinking it all up, I'll come back to buy more."

  The boss's wife saw that Ye Tianfan was so generous, and happily said: "Let me calculate it for you. A jar of wine is 20 kilograms, and there are 50 jars of strong liquor, which is 1,000 kilograms. If we calculate a little less, it would be 50 spirit stones per kilogram, totaling 500,000 spirit stones. The Hundred Flowers Brew suitable for women has 30 jars, each jar weighing 10 kilograms, calculated at 80 spirit stones per kilogram, totaling 280,000 spirit stones. Adding the two types of wine together requires 780,000 spirit stones. Including this table of food and drink, it would require 809,000 spirit stones. Considering you are a big client, I'll charge 800,000 spirit stones."

  After finishing her speech, the boss's wife took out those wines from her storage ring and placed them in front of Ye Tianfan.

  Ye Tianfan took a look and found it to be just as the boss's wife had said, so he took out 80,000 spirit stones from his storage ring and gave them to the boss's wife, then stored all the wine into his ring.

  Yè Tiān Fán saw that his senior sister was also slightly drunk, and the dishes on the table had hardly been touched. So Yè Tiān Fán said: "I don't know if it's possible to pack up these foods and take them away?"

  "Of course, Xiao Yue, pack the things on this table for the two of them, do you know?" The boss's wife replied to Ye Tianfan's words and said to the shop assistant beside her.

  The shopkeeper nodded and quickly packed the food with tools and handed it over to Ye Tianfan.

  Ye Tianfan directly put it into the storage ring, after all, only the storage ring can keep perishable items for a long time.

  After cleaning up, Ye Tianfan found that his master sister was already asleep on the table. There was no way out, so Ye Tianfan had to be a laborer for a while.

  Ye Tianfan pulled up his own master sister, put one of his master sister's hands on his shoulder, and slowly supported his master sister to walk out of the wine building.

  Walking on the main street, it's already getting dark, and there are fewer people on the road. It is said that if you are not a permanent resident of this city, you are not allowed to sleep on the streets, and you will be driven away. In severe cases, your cultivation will be abolished.

  So Ye Tianfan decided to find an inn to stay overnight and planned to rush to inform the two major sects tomorrow.

  Ye Tianfan walked into two inns one after another, but they were all fully booked. Having no choice, Ye Tianfan could only carry his own master sister and continue to look for an inn forward.

  Arriving at the third inn, this one looked even more dilapidated and it was clear that there were not many people staying here. So Ye Tianfan said: "Young master, give me two upper rooms, and also bring a basin of hot water."

  The little servant said enthusiastically: "Alright, the hot water you need will be delivered immediately. I'll take you to your room upstairs to rest." After that, he led the way forward.

  Ye Tianfan also followed Xiao Er as he carried his own master sister towards the room upstairs.

  The little servant pushed open one of the rooms and said: "Young master, please enter. This room and the next room are your accommodations."

  Leading Ye Tianfan in, Xiao Er said: "Two of you, your water will be sent up immediately, I'll go down first." After finishing speaking, Xiao Er walked towards the door and brought the door with him. Ye Tianfan also helped his master sister take off her shoes and put her on the bed.

  After a while, the water arrived. Ye Tianfan picked up the towel from the water, wrung it out and gently wiped his master sister's face, saying "You can't even drink and yet you drank so much, honestly."

  Xie Qianqiu did not respond to Ye Tianfan's complaints, but instead drooled at the corner of his mouth. Ye Tianfan quickly wiped it away and after wiping it clean, he put down the towel and left.

  Ye Tianfan returned to his own room, just about to sit and cultivate, when a series of footsteps came from the roof, Ye Tianfan hurriedly ran out, planning to observe the situation.

  "How about it, have you found your target?" a slightly gloomy voice said.

  "Boss, don't worry, that's definitely a big fat sheep. I saw them buying eight million spirit stones' worth of wine at the tavern today," another voice said in a flattering tone.

  After listening to the conversation between the two, Ye Tianfan understood that they were thieves and had set their sights on him and his senior sister.
