Chapter 861: Reunion!
“Ah, I don’t know if it’s my good fortune or you two being foolish,” Su Yi shrugged, sighed, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Not far away, Xi Wuqing observed the three young figures ahead, his eyes shimmering with an unusual light.
“Boss, don’t forget about me. Whoever dares to touch my boss today, I won’t let them get away!”
A streak of colorful light flew like lightning and landed on Su Yi’s shoulder.
It was a tiny bird, resembling a sparrow, perching affectionately on Su Yi’s shoulder.
“This little bird can actually speak. Could it have reached the Demonic Void Realm!”
The small bird immediately surprised Xu Chen and Flame Scale, who stared at it intently.
“I’m not a little bird, I’m Su Xiaoshuai, and Su Yi is my boss!”
Su Xiaoshuai fluttered its wings, its bright eyes sparkling. Knowing that Xu Chen and Flame Scale fought alongside the boss, its attitude toward them was exceptionally friendly.
“What an extraordinary bird!”
Xu Chen was puzzled. He had just sensed a fleeting yet terrifying aura, but now it had vanished. He couldn’t determine the identity or origin of this little bird.
Flame Scale was equally amazed. He felt a pressure emanating from Su Xiaoshuai that made him tremble inexplicably. This was clearly no ordinary bird.
“Hey, aren’t you afraid to die? Though I’m an old man, I’ll join in the excitement today!”
As the voice sounded, a figure silently appeared beside Su Yi, Xu Chen, and Flame Scale. Many eyes stared and faces twitched as bones in the body made crackling sounds. Within moments, it transformed completely into another appearance – none other than Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing!
“That’s actually a disguise technique!”
Xu Chen was startled. He recognized the method as an extremely rare disguise technique.
“Swoosh, swoosh…”
When Xi Wuqing resumed his original appearance, subtle fluctuations rippled through the crowd.
“It really is him, Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing!”
In Yutian Palace, Deputy Palace Masters Guan Lan, Yun Ding, and Yan Lu all showed changed expressions. They had seemingly guessed Xi Wuqing’s identity but hadn’t been certain.
“Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing, that fearsome individual!”
In the Divine Sword School, Elders Mei Huaye, Duan Yuerong, and others were equally surprised. Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing, that terrifying figure, was unexpectedly walking alongside Su Yi.
Among the numerous onlookers in the distance, discussions broke out. Many powerful individuals recognized Xi Wuqing’s identity.
“Brother…”
Su Yi looked at Xi Wuqing with a bitter smile. Even with Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing joining them today, they couldn’t possibly contend against Sacred Mountain’s forces.
“I know what you want to say, but remember our vow from back then. In times of trouble, we stand together. In times of joy, we share together. We needn’t be born on the same day, but we hope to die on the same day. If we break this vow, may lightning and thunder strike us down! Otherwise, do you think I, these old bones, would be willing to be buried with you?”
Xi Wuqing paused, produced a bottle of alcohol, took a large gulp, burped, and then tossed the bottle to Su Yi. The brown eyes in his hollow eye sockets flickered brilliantly as he said, “We might die, so let’s have one final drink!”
“Hahaha, even without flying dragon warriors in the city, there’s still the icy cold iron spear. In this world, we are heroes, even in death. With you beside me, brother, I cannot be defeated!”
Su Yi laughed and took a hearty swig of the alcohol. Xi Wuqing’s drink was naturally excellent.
Then, Su Yi offered the bottle to Xu Chen and asked, “Would you like a sip? My elder brother’s alcohol is exceptional.”
“You two are actually sworn brothers?”
Xu Chen observed the unlikely pair of Su Yi and Xi Wuqing with surprise, but then accepted the bottle without hesitation and took a large gulp.
As the alcohol touched his lips, Xu Chen’s eyes immediately brightened as he exclaimed, “This is exquisite!”
“Would you like to try?” Xu Chen extended the bottle to Flame Scale and said, “It truly is a fine drink. It would be a shame to miss it!”
“Senior, may I have some?”
Flame Scale took the wine gourd from Xi Wuqing but looked at him hesitantly as he asked.
“Hahaha, of course! I have plenty more. Let’s drink freely today!”
Xi Wuqing laughed heartily. Though thin, he was tall in stature. When he smiled, deep wrinkles formed on his neck. His wide robe fluttered in the wind, and his brown eyes sparkled.
Reassured by this response, Flame Scale immediately took a large sip.
“Cough…”
As the wine went down his throat, Flame Scale coughed, his face flushing. He handed the wine gourd back to Xi Wuqing in surprise, saying, “My, that’s quite potent.”
“I want to drink too! It looks delicious,” Su Xiaoshuai could barely contain himself, nearly drooling.
“This kind of drink isn’t for little birds like you,” Xi Wuqing said, patting Su Xiaoshuai’s head and taking back the wine gourd.
The entire field watched in astonishment. In the presence of Sacred Mountain’s powerful warriors, these few individuals acted as if they were invisible. They chatted and laughed while drinking wine, seemingly dismissive of Sacred Mountain’s presence.
The group of powerful figures on Sacred Mountain were equally surprised, some inexplicably stunned. Even Bing Fu and Elder Saint Fire showed bewilderment in their icy gazes.
“Let me introduce everyone – this is my sworn elder brother, Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing.”
Su Yi looked at those around him, smiled slightly, and introduced Xu Chen and Flame Scale.
“I have an idea. Since we don’t know if we’ll survive today, why don’t we become sworn brothers together? Even if we must die, let’s die with spirit. What do you think?”
Xu Chen looked interested as he gazed at Su Yi and Xi Wuqing while asking.
“Become…”
Su Yi paused momentarily.
“Wonderful, wonderful! I want to become sworn brothers too.” Su Xiaoshuai flapped his wings excitedly.
“I have no objection. As long as you don’t mind me.” Flame Scale replied, his eyes gleaming.
“Big brother, what’s your opinion?” Xu Chen asked Xi Wuqing.
“Hahaha, I never expected to be fortunate enough to become sworn brothers with you all. I am overjoyed, truly overjoyed!”
Xi Wuqing laughed heartily, vividly recalling the battle at the Saint Martial Assembly. How could these two young people before him not know the terrifying extent of their talents? Including Su Yi, they were all outstanding individuals of their generation. At this moment, Xi Wuqing felt fortunate to be among these young people, despite his old age.
