The thought of this Xu Nianliang gave him heartache, making it even hard to breathe.

Out of inner turmoil, he intended to drown his sorrow in wine. However, less than five minutes after he took a sip, he slumped onto the ground with a thud.

Saliva dribbling down the corner of his mouth, a tear of frustration glinting at the corner of his eye, he fell asleep like a log.

Nobody paid any attention to him.

If Xu Nianliang could discover this, he may feel heartbroken.

After three rounds of drinks, all three of them reeked of alcohol. The superb wine provided by Ao Cheng was so strong, even using their spiritual power could not help. It all depended on their tolerance for alcohol now.

Each of them downed a pot of wine. Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Cheng were still in good shape, but interestingly, the usually schooled Kong Yuhuai seemed a bit under the weather.

“Brother Jiang…hic, I must admit, other than Little Liang, you are my only friend!”

Kong Yuhuai, his face flushed, eyes narrowed, slurred out, “1…1 am lonely!”

“Fear not, from now on, I’ll be your brother, so you won’t be alone!” Jiang Xiaobai also looked slightly fuzzy.

At this point, Ao Cheng raised his arm, took a swig and declared, “And…and me. You’re not much to look at, but you’re decent enough. I, Ao Cheng, claim you as my friend!”

“What… are you, worth? At least Brother Jiang is on par with me in alchemy. Why should I befriend you, do you have something… special?” Kong Yuhuai shouted back.

As expected, in vino veritas. He blurted out the truth unknowingly.

No sooner had he spoken, Ao Cheng’s spoiled and reckless temper flared up.

“Damn it, I am the young master of the Dragon Valley. The princess…the one with an exploding temper and overpowering strength is my sister.”

Ao Cheng wobbled to his feet: “Tell me if I qualify to be your brother!”

“Hiss… so you’re that Ao Cheng! It did sound kind of familiar!” Kong Yuhuai, his face red, squinted his eyes: “Alright, you qualify. I, the Saint Son, concur.”

“In that case, why don’t the three of us form a sworn brotherhood, a bond as unbreakable as gold and orchid?”

“Huh?”

Jiang Xiaobai felt a bit sober. He looked baffled at Ao Cheng, wondering if the guy had gone nuts.

Unexpectedly, Kong Yuhuai managed to stand up unsteadily, trudged towards Ao Cheng, draped an arm around him emulating Ao Cheng’s casual air.

“Alright, I’ll slaughter a chicken to perform the ritual. Starting today, we’re brothers. ”

“I’m the big brother!” Ao Cheng shouted.

“Pah, on what grounds do you get to be the big brother?” Jiang Xiaobai sneered.

“I told you, I’m older than you.”

“No way, I always need to be the big brother. Being a little brother doesn’t suit my style.”

“I am the Saint Son of Five Lotus Mountain. If we want to compare, I’m way above you.”

“Nonsense! Such as you are, I could easily finish off three of your kind.”

Kong Yuhuai suddenly fell silent because he knew Ao Cheng was telling the truth.

“Why all the fuss? Let’s drink, come on, let’s keep on drinking!” Jiang Xiaobai raised his glass, trying to change the subject.

The trio continued to drink furiously as if they were drinking water.

Interestingly, Ao Cheng was really serious about the sworn brotherhood and vehemently insisted that the three of them form the bond. They then had an ongoing argument about who should be the big brother and finally decided to compete through alcohol tolerance.

Whoever could drink the most would be the big brother.

In the end, Jiang Xiaobai beat the other two boneheads with his extraordinary capacity for drink.

“How about… that, are you convinced, am I the big brother?”

Jiang Xiaobai felt his tongue was somewhat uncontrollable. He shouted, clutching someone’s clothes while lying on the ground, “Speak up, why are you all silent, let’s drink… keep drinking…”

His voice gradually faded and turned into a snore. All of them fell asleep.

The scene inside the courtyard was a complete mess. The three were lying on the ground in various positions, making a hilarious sight.

If people from Five Lotus Mountain were to find out that their Saint Son would end up in such a state after drinking, it would be jaw-dropping.

Outside the courtyard, a group of old men didn’t know how to react.

“It’s good that the Saint Son has made friends, but I can’t help but feel that these are not good friends.”

“Indeed, wouldn’t these guys lead him astray?”

“Quite possibly, especially Ao Cheng. We can’t let the Saint Son pick up his arrogant and aggressive behaviour.”

“What if he becomes a prodigal too?”

The elders watched the entire drinking session, seeing every embarrassing moment. They felt worried about the future of their Saint Son.

At this time, Elder Jiang sighed and said, “Anyhow, it’s nice to see the Saint Son learning to make friends. As for whether they will lead him astray, I think, stopping them from drinking should be problem-free.”

“That seems reasonable…”

“That seems feasible.’

“Let’s go for it, we won’t interfere anymore. Let’s see how embarrassed they will feel tomorrow when they get up.”

The elders felt a huge weight off their shoulders and promptly retired.

How does the morning sun shining on one’s face feel?

Jiang Xiaobai knew very well, it’s like the comfort of a warm quilt, so pleasant that you wouldn’t want to leave it.

Smack!

“Who, who hit me?”

Ao Cheng, clutching his face, sprang up from the ground as if by a spring. He saw Ao Yan’s face adorned with a grotesque grin.

“Big sis? Can you let me sleep a bit longer in the morning?”

Seeing that it was Ao Yan, Ao Cheng grumbled a little.

“Sleep, sleep, sleep, all you think about is sleep. Didn’t I tell you not to drink too much before I left yesterday? Look at this; the Saint Son of Five Lotus Mountain was your pillow all night!” Ao Yan gritted her teeth and smacked Ao Cheng on the head.

Only then did Ao Cheng recall that he indeed did that.

Lowering his head, he saw Kong Yuhuai sleeping soundly, cradling his chest. That was exactly where Ao Cheng had rested his head as a pillow.

“Wake up, get up, Jiang Xiaobai.” Ao Cheng then turned to Jiang Xiaobai, who was sleeping in a rather normal posture.

After being nudged a few times, they both woke up, sat on the ground stretching and yawning.

“What’s strange is, I felt somewhat suffocated when I was sleeping yesterday. Why does my chest still hurt?” Kong Yuhuai massaged his chest, looking puzzled.

Ao Cheng was whistling, not intending to reveal what they did.

Seeing that they all had sobered up, Ao Yan didn’t linger. After giving Ao Cheng a fierce stare, she left for Elder Jiang’s alchemy room.

Three of them then entered a state of confusion, sitting on the ground trying to recollect what had happened last night while sobering up.

Their expressions were priceless after recalling the events of the night.

Especially Kong Yuhuai, first he was stunned, then his face turned beet red.

Who would have thought that a typical scholar like him would have behaved so recklessly last night?

The atmosphere turned a bit awkward. Recalling the event about them fighting to be the big brother last night, they felt totally mortified. “Huh, where’s Little Liang?” Suddenly, Kong Yuhuai cried out..
