Ouyang Chongyang immediately started dancing with joy upon hearing that his granddaughter had obtained ten thousand pounds of Celestial Wine. "Haha, my dear granddaughter knows how to take care of her grandpa, knowing that I love this drink so much, she actually got me ten thousand pounds of Celestial Wine! Haha, my good granddaughter, what should I use to thank you?"
As he spoke, he walked over to Ouyang Shaohua, his eyes already beginning to redden. At that moment, Ouyang Shaohua's grandmother hurried out and shouted, "Ouyang Shaohua, you have Celestial Wine, why haven't you given it to me? I see you dare not give it to your grandpa. That old man can't handle alcohol; since it's Celestial Wine, I should have a taste too."
The grandmother trembled as she approached Ouyang Shaohua, pushing Ouyang Chongyang aside and reaching for Ouyang Shaohua. Ouyang Chongyang could only gesture behind her back to Ouyang Shaohua, suggesting she give their grandmother some fake wine.
However, Ouyang Shaohua dared not deceive her grandmother. She knew that if her grandmother got angry, her marriage with Guan Yue might be jeopardized.
So she quickly took out the Celestial Wine and handed it to her grandmother, saying, "Grandma, this is Celestial Wine, a token of respect from your granddaughter. After drinking this wine, you will surely live longer than South Mountain and have blessings as vast as the Eastern Sea. May you celebrate this day every year and surpass today every year."
The grandmother laughed heartily and said, "My granddaughter knows how to speak well; it makes me happy. In the future, I will teach you some powerful tricks." With that, she proudly walked away holding the Celestial Wine.
Ouyang Chongyang drooled as he watched her figure disappear. He immediately turned around and pointed a trembling arm at Ouyang Shaohua, angrily stammering.
"You, you, you, you, you girl are really driving me crazy!"
Ouyang Shaohua could only wave at her grandfather and point towards the door. Ouyang Chongyang's face flushed red in an instant before he became extremely happy and ran out excitedly.
Once Ouyang Shaohua stepped outside, he immediately asked with drool dripping from his mouth, "Granddaughter, do you still have more Celestial Wine?"
Ouyang Shaohua whispered back, "I still have some here; it's specially for you from Guan Yue. Don't let Grandma find out. I really don't have any more."
"How much do you have?" Ouyang Chongyang asked softly. This was the first time Ouyang Shaohua saw her grandfather looking so innocent and adorable, with a greedy expression and drooling slightly; he even seemed a bit foolishly naive.
Having Celestial Wine made all the difference; it seemed Guan Yue's method of sending Celestial Wine to Grandpa was indeed very effective.
"This is ten thousand pounds; Grandma has ten thousand pounds too," Ouyang Shaohua said as she handed the bottle to her grandfather and casually asked again, "Grandpa, what exactly is the use of Five-Flavor True Water?"
Ouyang Chongyang took the bottle and sniffed it contentedly before saying, "This kid is really on the right track and sensible. Since it's for Celestial Wine's sake, I'll tell you that Five-Flavor True Water has great uses."
Ouyang Chongyang put the Celestial Wine into the Storage Ring, then walked back to the hall, slowly sat down, and dramatically said to Ouyang Shaohua:
"Five-Flavor True Water is water nurtured by Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy over thousands of years. It comes from the gathering of the spirits of all things. It is said that it can only be formed in the Dragon Essence Pool of the dragon clan, making it rare in the human realm. Legend has it that over three thousand years ago, someone brought it out from the Dragon Abyss Nine Hells, which sparked bloody wars among more than forty countries. In the end, Five-Flavor True Water was seized by the Vast Empire, allowing them to quickly surpass the Southern Source Empire and Dawson Empire."
Ouyang Shaohua was greatly surprised by his grandfather's words: "Grandpa, now that we have Five-Flavor True Water, doesn't that mean our family can thrive?"
Ouyang Chongyang deliberately made things difficult for Ouyang Shaohua: "Just having this little bit is not enough. Unless you can get two or three hundred pounds, or even six or seven hundred pounds from that Guan Yue kid. Only then does our family have hope to flourish."
"Well, okay, I'll try my best." Under the deception of Ouyang Chongyang, the old fox, Ouyang Shaohua had no choice but to comply and started thinking about how to approach Guan Yue.
This was how Ouyang Chongyang was; for the sake of his family's interests, he would deceive anyone!
Seeing that Ouyang Shaohua genuinely wanted to help him ask Guan Yue for more Five-Flavor True Water, Ouyang Chongyang immediately slipped away to find a place to taste the Celestial Wine.
That night, thousands of drunkards from the Ouyang Family complained that the fine wine produced by their family had suddenly become tasteless and bland, like plain water.
Only Ouyang Shaohua knew the truth behind this matter. She hurriedly ran to her grandmother and saw her grandmother along with her mother and aunts joyfully tasting the Celestial Wine.
Ouyang Shaohua then ran to her grandfather's residence and found him behind closed doors, enjoying the Celestial Wine with a few old friends. He was calling out: "Everyone, this is Celestial Wine, worth dozens of taels of gold per drop. Just taste a little; please leave some for me. I only have this ten pounds of Celestial Wine! Once it's gone, there won't be any left."
At this moment, Ouyang Shaohua realized her grandfather's true nature. He had clearly received ten thousand pounds of Celestial Wine but only brought out ten pounds for his guests while asking them to leave some behind. The extent of her grandfather's stinginess was something Ouyang Shaohua had now experienced firsthand.
So she quickly called her grandfather out and explained that if he continued drinking Celestial Wine, all other wines would pale in comparison and taste like plain water.
Ouyang Chongyang suddenly understood and realized why so many people in the family were complaining about the wine tasting bad; it was because he had been drinking Celestial Wine.
He anxiously scratched his head and exclaimed in frustration: "I have this ten thousand pounds of Celestial Wine, but what will I do when I want to drink in the future? Do I have to run off to remote mountains every time?"
Ouyang Shaohua also explained this reasoning to her grandmother, who hurriedly said: "This won't do; we should stop. If it affects everyone’s enjoyment of wine, that would be a serious issue."
Ouyang Shaohua smiled and said, "You might as well finish your drinks. Once the Celestial Wine appears, its fragrance will surely linger around Liang Sanri before it dissipates. So go ahead and drink it all at once."
After thinking for a moment, Grandma smiled and said, "How about this? You all dug a hole underground, so from now on, we can drink the Celestial Wine down there. Let’s just consider it a gathering of wine enthusiasts underground to avoid affecting everyone else's drinking mood."
The women all laughed heartily.
Seeing the family so joyful, Ouyang Shaohua felt an immense happiness in his heart.
Three days later, at the headquarters of the Azure Dragon Sect.
The lucky escapee from the Eternal Realm Peak Cultivator was reporting his encounters to the leader of the Azure Dragon Sect.
"We paid the price of losing three Eternal Realm Masters and injuring four Eternal Realm Practitioners to capture Princess Wuma Xiangwei and her two guards."
Of course, he didn't dare to tell the leader everything that had transpired during their journey; he only slightly altered the facts. He said, "So we planned to bring the captured hostages back to you for your judgment. But on our way back, an unexpected incident occurred. We encountered that brat Guan Tian."
"Guan Tian? Is he the prodigy from Dragon Lake Academy who has been rumored about lately? Tell me more; what’s so strange about him?" The leader of the Azure Dragon Sect was a bit curious. With so many Eternal Realm Practitioners dead or injured, it was clear that something must have gone wrong because of Guan Tian.
"As soon as Guan Tian appeared, he startled us a bit; he was dressed in armor and looked like a deity. We had a conversation with him, but who would have thought he had something particularly bizarre in his hands? It emitted no Vital Energy Fluctuation yet could injure us. We quickly discovered his flaw, and when we rushed at him all at once, he used the Sky Peak Tower against us."
The Eternal Peak Disciple took a breath, keeping an eye on the leader's expression, fearing that the leader would question their route too closely. So he hurriedly continued, "Seeing him use the Sky Peak Tower, we relied on our numbers and all attacked him together. Elder Wang and I blocked the entrance to the Sky Peak Tower to prevent him from escaping. At that moment, he was in quite a predicament.
Then Elder Wang ordered three severely injured Eternal Realm Practitioners—namely Luo Han—to self-destruct in order to injure Guan Tian so we could capture him.
But just then, we were unexpectedly confronted by the Sky-Sealing Tower..."
"What? What? The Sky-Sealing Tower? The Sky-Sealing Tower is with that brat Guan Tian? Is that true? This is serious; we cannot afford any mistakes." The leader became agitated. The Sky-Sealing Tower, one of the top-ranked artifacts, had finally made its appearance!
"This matter was confirmed by Elder Wang at that time. Due to the overwhelming power of the Sky-Sealing Tower suppressing our Origin Energy attacks, Guan Tian immediately dove into the Sky-Sealing Tower. We were utterly helpless. Then two experts appeared; these two were at least peak-level Eternal Realm cultivators, and they managed to capture all of us in one fell swoop. Moreover, they took away the princess of the Vast Empire."
The attention of the Sect Leader was completely absorbed by the two towers owned by Guan Yue, so he did not notice the loophole in the report from this Disciple.
The Sect Leader was extremely angry; thirty of his subordinates, including Eternal Realm Practitioners and even Eternal Realm Cultivators, had been slaughtered, resulting in a tremendous loss.
Although two members from the Nanyue Sect had participated in this operation, both of them had already perished.
No, he could not let Guan Tian go, which was also Guan Yue. However, with so many casualties among his subordinates, it seemed that the other two sects would have to handle the aftermath.
After giving a few instructions to Eternal Peak, the Sect Leader of Azure Dragon Sect hurriedly made his way to Nanyue Sect. This time he was determined to make Nanyue Sect pay a price; otherwise, the losses among his subordinates would be in vain.
When the Sect Leader of Azure Dragon Sect arrived at Nanyue, the Sect Leader of Nanyue Sect was discussing matters with his elders.
Seeing the Sect Leader of Azure Dragon Sect personally visit, the Sect Leader of Nanyue Sect immediately welcomed him in and introduced him to the elders of Nanyue Sect.
After exchanging pleasantries, they took their seats. The Sect Leader of Nanyue Sect then asked the Sect Leader of Azure Dragon Sect, "Brother Wu Qiang, what brings you here?"
Wei Chi Wu Qiang, the Sect Leader of Azure Dragon Sect, sighed deeply and then smiled bitterly at the Sect Leader of Nanyue Sect. "Brother Daoyi, I am incompetent. In this capture operation, over thirty members from my sect went out and encountered Princess Wuma Xiangwei. We sacrificed ourselves to capture her. However, unexpectedly, within the territory of Dawson Empire, that brat Guan Tian emerged halfway and rescued Princess Wuma Xiangwei while capturing all our elite Disciples. Even Elder Wang could not escape. Moreover, two Disciples from your sect who were accompanying us also met a tragic end."
Hearing this, Zongzheng Daoyi, the Sect Leader of Nanyue Sect, was shocked. "Guan Tian? Is that that brat Guan Yue? How could he possibly wipe out Elder Wang's group?" He had heard many rumors about Guan Tian but did not believe he was strong enough to defeat an Eternal Realm Cultivator.
"This is precisely why I came to find you. This brat not only possesses Celestial Wine but also has Sky Peak Tower. This time he even used Sky-Sealing Tower against my sect brothers. We can no longer stand by and watch; that Sky-Sealing Tower is incredibly powerful. Only one Eternal Realm Peak Cultivator managed to escape back. As soon as I learned the truth, I rushed over to discuss it with you."
Wei Chi Wu Qiang's expression was serious, containing strong indignation beneath his restraint.
