Chapter 40
Drunk Together
Qiong Qi had excellent meat roasting skills. The mercenaries in the camp were all there to eat it. The meat of the wild boar in the forest was originally very fragrant, especially at the hooves. The meat was fresh and tender when roasted, and the meat was delicious and juicy. However, Qiong Qi ran into the forest alone. No one knew how far he ran to catch a few ice rabbits.
The rabbit’s meat was a layer higher than the wild boar’s. He had a lot of seasoning on hand. He sprinkled a layer of seasoning and roasted it over the fire. A different fragrance came out.
“Here, have a taste of the black ale in the royal cellar!” Bai Ze threw a small container of alcohol at Beiting Huang, who took it with a wave of her hand.
As soon as she opened the lid, the fragrance of the wine wafted out. She raised her head and took a big gulp. It was burning hot. As it went down her throat, she felt a burning sensation. It instantly made her feel heroic.
“Good drink!” Beiting Huang could not help but praise.
Both Qiong Qi and Bai Ze had experienced Beiting Huang’s forthright temperament. They felt that drinking with her was especially carefree. The three of them each carried a rabbit leg and held an alcohol mug in their hands. They took a sip and drank while chatting. It made Beiting Huang feel like she had returned to the days when she was with her companions in her previous life.
“Ninth Young Master, here’s to you!”
After the war, the entire camp had been paying attention to Beiting Huang. When they saw her sitting in the wilderness with everyone else, drinking wine and eating meat, every now and then, male and female spirit masters or swordmasters would come over to toast Beiting Huang. The men were fine, but when the beautiful ladies came over, they would steal glances at Beiting Huang. He was simply intoxicating.
Beiting Huang had suddenly become the lover of all the women in the camp. The young man’s outstanding skills, handsome appearance, and heroic temperament were all top tier!
Qin Yu came over with an alcohol mug and sat down beside Beiting Huang. He smiled at Qiong Qi and Bai Ze and said, “Sirs, do you mind if I join in the fun?”
The Central Continent had always addressed Star Spirit Masters as Your Excellency. Although Qiong Qi and Bai Ze were only the guards of the Night Palace, they were both Star Spirit Masters through and through.
“Of course I don’t mind!” Qiong Qi and Bai Ze raised their alcohol mugs at Qin Yu. The three men looked at each other and raised their heads to drink.
“Count me in!” Beiting Huang laughed and took a big gulp.
“Alright, Little Ninth, let’s drink alone!” Qin Yu put one arm around Beiting Huang’s shoulder and the alcohol mug in his hand clinked against hers. It was as if their hearts were closer.
They drank to their heart’s content. At the edge of the camp, someone had drunk too much and started singing. The rough and unrestrained mercenary song made Beiting Huang’s eyes burn. The song rose and fell, and someone shouted, “Ninth Young Master, sing one!”
Immediately, the sky above the campsite was filled with cheers. Seeing that Beiting Huang was shouting so loudly, Beiting Hao’s face darkened. He drank hard and stared at Beiting Huang with vicious eyes. He wished he could kill her right now. He hated the Two-Winged Cloud Leopard, the Holy Beast that led the attack. “What kind of lousy Holy Beast can’t even deal with a piece of trash?”
In a fit of anger, Beiting Hao had forgotten that it was Qiong Qi and Bai Ze who had stopped the Two-Winged Cloud Leopard from doing anything to Beiting Huang.
“Alright!” She stood up, raised the wine in her hand, and toasted everyone in the camp. “I’ll sing one!”
She looked up at the night sky, her emotions fluctuating. She thought of how in her previous life, every time she returned from a mission with her companions, she would drink and sing at the same time. Her clear voice echoed in the night sky, making people cry.
“I have no intention of staying in the sandstorm.
Lone Desert Smoke.
River Sunset overlooks the people of Jiangnan.
Reincarnation.
Fireworks.
Busy as smoke, you look like a picture.
The sound of swords was jarring.
Thousands of cavalry and tens of thousands of horses fighting.
One Sword Keeps the World Under Control.
The way you turn around is so cool.
I put my life on the line.
But you never came to get it.
I put my life on the line.
But you never came to get it…”
