Long Qinghan had been standing quietly observing the wine shop called Guoting for a while . The temperature in March was still a bit chilly, he tightened his clothes tightly and his calm eyes, like stagnant pools of water, kept looking in the distance.
After realizing that he was resurrected he accepted this fact frankly. Excitedly, he went to meet his parents who were supposed to have died in the Massacre of Eradication. Then, at the order of his father, he went to attend the wedding banquet of Miss Xiang Shanzhuang on behalf of their , just like before his resurrection.
Today he came to this wine shop an hour earlier than before his resurrection because he was afraid that he would be late and would miss the encounter with that person.
Yes, he will never forget the scene where he first met Feng Xuanyang here.
The sunny day was warm and the sky a shocking clear blue. The arrogant man in red, who had taken away Long Qinghan’s heart at that time, had firmly attracted his indifferent gaze.
“Young Master, the wind is a bit strong, let’s go in.” Long Mo said worriedly.
Long Qinghan glanced obsessively into the distance, nodded, and said “Okay.”
Walking into the familiar wine shop, Long Qinghan still felt that this was like a beautiful dream. The last time he came here, it was before he went to Fengque Mountain to fight alone with Feng Xuanyang. At that time, he had drunk for three days and three nights intending to go to death but he didn’t think about it now. Today, he had gone back to the past and came to this place full of fragrance and memories.
“Young Master, please.” Long Mo interrupted Long Qinghan’s reminiscence and he clasped his hands to show his gesture, hoping to lead Long Qinghan to the most sheltered table inside.
But Long Qinghan raised his hand to stop it. He glanced at the place where he had been sitting in his previous life and said faintly: “No, I can sit at the door.”
After that, he took a few steps, pulled aside his robe, and sat down in the corner facing outside the west door.
It was still early when he came and the wine shop was still deserted. He told Long Mo to order two dishes and a pot of Drunken Immortal Brew and then began to slowly drink the wine, waiting for Feng Xuanyang to come.
Long Qinghan’s face was delicate and beautiful, his skin was white as porcelain jade, and his long black hair was only partly curled up with a dragon-shaped hosta, and the rest poured down and covered his thinner body. The blue robe inlaid with dragons showed the state of wealth and the whole person exuded a unique elegance and nobleness. He sat there quietly, as pale as a lotus under the moon. His demeanor was like that of floating clouds in the sky; withdrawn, aloof, and out of reach.
Time gradually passed and noon was approaching. The wine shop became lively. The place where Guoting Winery is located was a path leading to Xiang Mountain Villa. These few days, most people who go to and from the restaurant were people who went to Xiang Mountain Villa to attend the wedding banquet, so all the chats and teases are about this wedding.
The place where Long Qinghan sits was too remote. If you don’t look closely, no one will notice his existence. Therefore, he turned the wine glass in his hand indifferently, listening to the people in the Jianghu talking about The Marriage. By the way, they also started to say bad things about him.

“Hey, I don’t know what Mr. Xiang Zongxiang thinks. Miss Xiang Shanzhuang is the beauty of the country. With his identity and status in Jianghu, how can he let Xiang Shanzhuang marry the Tao of Wanfeng Escort? Who’s that kid Huai.” The rustling whispers became louder and louder, and a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi shook his head and loudly said with emotion.

“Brother Li,” the man in Tsing Yi tugged at the corner of Master Fan’s clothes and whispered: “Is there anyone in Jianghu who can be worthy of Miss Xiang.”
“Hey, who else can it be? With the love between Old Man Xiang and the Tian Jianzong, it is natural that Long Qinghan, the young master of the Jianzong, can match Miss Xiang.”
Although the two of them didn’t talk loudly, Long Qinghan, who had excellent ears, still heard it. He paused his actions, with his right hand holding the cup, and rubbed the surface of the cup with his fingertips. But then shook his head and continued to drink.
“Tian Jian is only one in the top.” Tian Jianzong is the largest martial arts faction of the righteous path. Its suzerain has been the leader of the Jianghu sects for several generations and he is also the future leader of the Jianghu sects. But thinking about how he accidentally became the leader of the Jianghu sect at that time, a dark color appeared in his eyes that had never fluctuated before, he sighed lightly and continued to drink.
People over there talked more and more loudly and some people who were interested in it also joined them. Instead, the topic changed from Miss Xiang’s marriage to talking about Long Qinghan’s first appearance in the Jianghu and how he helped the weak and other seniors.
Until there was a rough voice chuckling loudly, the buzzing whisper stopped.
Everyone followed the source of sound and saw that the man was a big guy with a beard and a giant axe placed beside him.
The big man chuckled again and said: “This Long Qinghan, just a little white face who is backed by the Tian Jianzong and is worthy of your praise. Pooh! Lao Tzu is the first to look down on him!”
As soon as these words fell, everyone’s faces changed. Regardless of whether they praised Long Qinghan with sincerity or not, the Dahan's words alone was a slap to their face, which made everyone angry.
And the most annoyed one was Long Mo, he clenched the sword tightly and then went forward intending to teach the big man. But a lean fair hand stopped him.
“No, it’s hard to block Yoyo's mouth, let him go, I have a clear conscience.” After saying this, Long Qinghan couldn’t help feeling that he was really old. After two lives, there is nothing else he can’t see through. In the past, he was arrogant and young, and frivolous. When he heard these words in his previous life, he couldn’t help but feel annoyed. He assumed that Long Mo had gone to teach the man a bit, which caused the incident later. But now is different, he wants to see what happens if he doesn’t follow the old script.
He saw that the big man cursed Long Qinghan a lot. Although those people were a little angry that the big man insulted Long Qinghan, they felt a little relieved when they heard the big man dare to curse so boldly. Although they praised Long Qinghan, they always had a jealous heart, so even if the big guy scolded harder, they would just sit there coldly, pretending to be angry. Long Qinghan was as indifferent as ever and continued with enjoying wine and food. However, Long Mo’s trembling hand gave away how angry the servant was.
Seeing that everyone’s reaction was not intense enough, the big man turned around the topic aloud and successfully angered everyone, “Huh, but if Long Qinghan is not a thing, this Xiang Shanzhuang is not a good thing either!”
After he finished speaking, many young men stood up one after another, glaring at him. Miss Xiang had a good-looking, humble, and modest personality, and she was in high place among young people’s hearts. So seeing the big man trying to slander their crush, they couldn’t help it anymore.
Long Qinghan’s eyes shone and he turned his glass with interest as he listened. He knew about Xiang Shanzhuang’s affairs, he was just curious about what the big guy was going to say.
The big man was not afraid of everyone’s hatred and said loudly: “Hmph, I’m afraid you’ll never think of it. Xiang Shanzhuang, this little bitch had a private relationship with “Jiu set for some time. Later, Xiang Zong discovered the matter, so he wanted to marry Xiang Shanzhuang to the shabby boy of Wanfeng Escort in a hurry.”
As soon as this word fell, everyone was in an uproar. But a ripple appeared in Long Qinghan’s eyes and the hand holding the wine glass tightened. He knows best what Jiu Tianjiao is.
“Above the nine heavens, under the phoenix, Jiu Tianjiao” It is said that the leader of Jiu Tianjiao took over the Sect at the age of fourteen. In just eight years, he swallowed everything the same way as the previous leader and killed the enemy. He developed Jiu Tianjiao even more vigorously, Because of its unruly behaviour and different style from the righteous path of martial arts, the people of Jianghu call it-Demon Cult!
However, no one from righteous martial art sects has seen the leader of Jiu Tianjiao. According to legend, he is like hell Shura; with a blue face and fangs, bloodthirsty and cruel. But Long Qinghan doesn’t know how people in Jianghu spread it mysteriously. Many of those legends are even crazier, which is nearly impossible. Only Long Qinghan knows that the leader of the Jiu Tianjiao -Feng Xuanyang, is just a man of flesh and blood; a sentimental and righteous ordinary man. Who was also his lifelong beloved.
Although the Jiu Tianjiao is called the Demon Sect, they have been at peace with righteous martial art sects over the years. Although righteous martial art sects are afraid of what they do, it has never been said that it will attack them.
However, a ruthless look flashed in Long Qinghan’s eyes, and no one could tell what would happen in the future.
Having said that, after everyone knew that the girl they thought of had a relationship with the Demon Cult, they were shocked and angry. The big man did not restrain himself and even talked about how shameless she was. An agitated young man couldn’t hold his breath, so he drained his cup and raised his sword to attack the big man. This was the case for the people of Jianghu.
However, the big man didn’t panic either. He was about to take his axe to deal with it but then a cold light passed through the crowd and the young man who attacked with the sword screamed and was immediately thrown away. Everyone rushed to see what had occurred. Only to see The young man’s eyes were wide, a small poisonous needle was pierced in his throat and the other person had died in anger!
Long Qinghan’s hand holding the chopsticks gradually dropped. He had been in a trance before, so he didn’t look at their situation. But to think about it the person died instantly. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at the two people walking into the wine shop.
The two men, one was tall and the other thin. The tall one had ordinary features, and his lips were tightly pressed. If it weren’t for the sharp eyes like a falcon, no one would recognize him if he was thrown into the crowd. The thin man had a waxy complexion, his eyes were like a poisonous snake and there was a terrible smile on his face at the moment. He laughed and said, “Brother Shi if I had not come in at the right time he would have killed you.”
“You…you are Zhuge Feng, the ‘Blue Blood Snake’ and Xue Li, the ‘Iron Eagle Claw’.” Someone recognized the identity of the men and then pointed to the man with the giant axe and said, “Then you…”
“Haha, who can make me the ‘Blue Blood Snake’ Zhuge Feng call a person ‘brother Shi’, except for my brother, ‘Sky Chopping Axe’, Shi Jing. Who else is it?” The thin man laughed and looked at everyone in amazement.
Everyone was in an uproar now. Long Qinghan’s corner of his mouth twitched unexpectedly, “Interesting, really interesting. But I don’t think it was just a wedding banquet which attracted the sect of Five Gu Boys.”
“Young Master, there are many people here, why don’t we leave first.” Long Mo bowed and suggested worriedly.
“No need.” Long Qinghan said. The person he was waiting for hadn’t arrived yet. How could he leave first? He wanted to see what the five Gu boy’s men were going to do.
There was already a lot of noise over there and everyone drew their swords to fight with them. However, the three of them didn’t panic. With a little cooperation, they knocked down all of them. The crowd seemed to be frightened by their identities, so they dared not speak out again.
Long Qinghan held his chin idly, watching the farce with a smile, wanting to see what was going to happen.
On the other side, the three of the Five Gu Boys’ subordinates, perhaps seeing that everyone did not dare to refute, began to abuse them even more presumptuously. From Long Qinghan to Miss Xiang, and even Jiu TianJiao.
Seeing that the person he admired was hooked away by Jiu TianJiao, some people couldn’t hold back their breath and echoed the three of them and yelled at Jiu TianJiao. However, when he was cursing over his head, he saw an unknown object flying across his cheek, and in an instant, a bloodstained line was drawn on his face.
“Who!” The man looked around but except for the man in blue who was slowly eating vegetables in the corner, he didn’t notice anything unusual. He swallowed and he didn’t dare to speak anymore.
Long Qinghan faintly threw away the only chopsticks in his hand. He estimated that it was almost time, so he asked Long Mo to bring two pots of wine. He took a new pair of chopsticks and continued to leisurely eat the vegetables.
The three people under the Five Gu Boys seemed to have deliberately caused trouble, angering everyone, and the more they talked the more energetic they were.
Long Qinghan just listened indifferently at first, but later, when they turned the topic to Feng Xuanyang, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. However, when he was about to get angry, there was a wave of dabbles in the distance; the sound of horse hooves.
Looking up, he saw that on a sunny day, at the end of the path, a few horses galloped. The men on the horses had their heads sweaty, reflecting a reddish light due to the figure of the man atop the horse in the lead with a wrathful look in the sun.
The corners of Long Qinghan’s mouth unconsciously upturned slightly and the blazing figure was firmly reflected in his bright eyes.
