Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Chapter 111 Don't wait until there are no flowers to break branches

Some people talk a lot once they drink too much. It is obvious that Yang Yunfei, Qi Yutang and Zhao Chengzhi are the type who talk a lot after drinking.

They talked about almost everything, starting with the memories of when they were six or seven years old and learned to read together.

When they were eight or nine years old, they each began to practice cultivation with their family elders.

Then when they were fifteen or sixteen years old, they formed a team to participate in various trials.

When they reached the age of twenty, they entered Zuixian Tower for the first time.

When men get together at the dinner table, they talk about dreams, reality, regrets and beauties.

A few glasses of wine and a few words can tell the short life. We can only sigh that time flies. We all have many dreams, but the only thing that has come true is that we have all grown up, but we don’t know where our dreams have been lost.

To put it in today's terms, these people were classmates, worked together, and had a very strong relationship.

"Haha... Qi Yutang! Do you still remember that person?" Zhao Chengzhi asked drunkenly and pretended to be mysterious.

"Burp...Who is it?" Qi Yutang asked with a red face and a burp.

"Haha...that person's surname is Sun. What do you think? Did you remember anything?" Zhao Chengzhi reminded with a smile.

"What grandson? King! I forgot about it a long time ago. Let's continue drinking." Qi Yutang picked up the wine jug and started drinking in big gulps. However, a familiar yet unfamiliar face appeared in his mind.

At that time, they were all only fifteen or sixteen years old, the age when they first began to fall in love. During a trial, they met a woman. Qi Yutang fell in love with her at first sight, but he did not dare to express his love.

Even if they had contact in the future, they were just friends. Later, when everyone grew up and understood many things, Qi Yutang found out that the other person already had someone in his heart, and later on, she was already married.

But Qi Yutang still keeps that regret in his heart. Once, he let it slip when he was drunk, and was made fun of by Zhao Chengzhi and others.

"Haha... I know. That person's name is... Eh? What's his name? Never mind! Let's not talk about it anymore! Let's drink!" Yang Yunfei laughed in surprise and was about to announce the answer, but he saw Qi Yutang, who was drinking alone, with tears in his eyes, so he had to change the subject.

"Gudong gudong..." Qi Yutang drank the wine with a look of laughter and tears, but three words emerged in his mind: Sun Lifang.

It is true that when flowers are ready to be picked, you must pick them immediately, and don't wait until there are no flowers left to pluck empty branches. Sometimes it is just like this, if you miss it, you miss it.

Just as Yang Yunfei and others were drinking and chatting, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Hey! You guys are in such a good mood! Drinking here in broad daylight!" A long-lost and familiar voice sounded.

Yang Yunfei, Qi Yutang and Zhao Chengzhi all looked in the direction of the voice.

A man with a slender figure, delicate complexion, slightly raised corners of his mouth and a cynical smile, a face that could not be more familiar, appeared in front of the three people.

"Ghost..." Qi Yutang was terrified.

"Am I dazzled?" Zhao Chengzhi rubbed his eyes.

"Lu Chen!" After a brief shock, Yang Yunfei showed surprise on his face.

The three shouted at almost the same time.

"Hehe... do I look like a ghost?" The person who came was Lu Chen, who took the teleportation array from Zhongba City to Shun'an City. As soon as he came back, he used the information jade slips left by the previous few people to sense their location. He didn't expect that they were together.

When Lu Chen arrived at the location of the information jade slip, what appeared in front of him was Food for Immortality. After Lu Chen asked the shopkeeper about the rooms of several people, he went directly to the door of the private room.

I planned to give them a surprise, but I didn't expect that Qi Yutang actually thought he was a ghost.

"Haha... Lu Chen! You're okay? That's great," Yang Yunfei used his true energy to dispel the effects of the alcohol and smiled happily.

"Lu Chen! Haha... it's really you. Where have you been during this period? We thought you were dead." Zhao Chengzhi and Qi Yutang also used their true energy to dispel the effects of the alcohol and laughed.

"It's a pity that Miss Zixuan is missing, otherwise she would be very happy to see you." Qi Yutang said subconsciously, but was met with hostile looks from Yang Yunfei and Zhao Chengzhi, before he realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"What? Zixuan is missing? When did it happen?" Lu Chen's face suddenly changed when he heard this. The previous joy disappeared in an instant and turned gloomy.

"Lu Chen! Hey... this... is like this..." After a brief hesitation, Yang Yunfei recounted with self-blame everything that had happened from the time they returned from the Endless Forest trial to the time Zi Xuan disappeared.

This also includes building a cenotaph for Lu Chen.

After listening to Yang Yunfei's explanation, Lu Chen realized that he could not blame others. He could only blame himself for not being able to come back in time, which led to the misunderstanding.

"I'm sorry! I was too impatient just now. Can you take me to Zixuan's workplace? I want to meet the people she usually interacts with." Lu Chen said in a gentle voice.

Yang Yunfei originally wanted to say that he had asked Manager Yang and others many times about Miss Zixuan's whereabouts, but to no avail. However, seeing Lu Chen's determined eyes, Yang Yunfei finally did not say it.

Then Yang Yunfei brought a few people to the Yang Family Dan Building.

With Yang Yunfei's introduction, Lu Chen met Manager Yang. When Manager Yang heard that the man in front of him was Lu Chen, he looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

After Lu Chen's repeated requests, Manager Yang finally told the truth. He had promised Zi Xuan to keep the secret for her, so when Yang Yunfei asked him about Zi Xuan's whereabouts, Manager Yang said nothing.

Now that the real boss is back, Manager Yang has nothing to hide. Besides, he is also very worried about Zixuan's safety.

It turned out that Zi Xuan was heartbroken after confirming the news of Lu Chen's death. She begged Manager Yang to lend her some spirit stones, saying that she wanted to go to the Endless Forest to pay homage to Lu Chen's cenotaph and then come back.

Manager Yang had no children, so he treated Zixuan as his own daughter. He couldn't bear to see her so sad and haggard.

He took out 80,000 mid-grade spirit stones from his life savings and gave them to Zixuan as travel expenses, allowing her to fulfill her wish.

However, more than ten days had passed and Zixuan still hadn't returned. Manager Yang was worried about Zixuan's safety. Even if Yang Yunfei didn't bring Lu Chen to see him, he planned to find Yang Yunfei and explain everything to him.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang! I am grateful for your kindness. I will go to Zhongba City right away to take a look." Lu Chen bowed respectfully.

"Do you want to go together?" Yang Yunfei suggested.

"Yes, if we go together, we can take care of each other." Zhao Chengzhi and Qi Yutang agreed.

"No! I can do it alone. You can lend me some spirit stones first, and I will return them to you when I have them. By the way! Tell me the approximate location of the good thing you did." Lu Chen rejected the suggestions of Yang Yunfei and others.

Next, Yang Yunfei took out all the spirit stones from the bottom of their boxes with Zhao Chengzhi and Qi Yutang, and raised some money for Lu Chen's travel expenses.

"Thank you!" Lu Chen was very anxious. He took the storage bag and left. He was worried that the longer the time dragged on, the greater the possibility that Zi Xuan would be in danger.
