Invincible

Chapter 791 - 800

Liu Yun suddenly felt that the wine jug in his hands was extremely heavy.

A moment later, he smiled wryly. Most likely only his Junior Apprentice-brother could afford to brew and drink this wine, even the four institutes' Principals couldn't afford to enjoy a jug of wine that cost a hundred million.

"How's the taste?" Huang Xiaolong asked.

"Worthy of its heavenly name." Liu Yun answered. "If this Heavenly Pill Wine claimed to be second, no other wine would dare to claim the top spot."

Huang Xiaolong smiled, "If Senior Apprentice-brother likes it, I still have a few jugs here, they're all yours."

Liu Yun beamed. Not acting modest with Huang Xiaolong, he accepted those several jugs of Heavenly Pill Wine and put them away into his spatial ring with swift movements, as if afraid that someone would snatch them away from him.

Following that, the two of them continuously clinked their wine cups.

A while later, Huang Xiaolong asked, "Eldest Senior Apprentice-brother, the matter about you and Third Apprentice-sister, how is it now?"

Liu Yun's smile froze on his face at Huang Xiaolong's question, his face crestfallen. His mouth opened and closed, but no words came.

Watching Liu Yun's reaction, a tiny frown furrowed Huang Xiaolong's mouth forehead, "Did the Qi Ancestor go back on his word?!" His eyes gleamed as he asked this.

Liu Yun shook his head, explaining, "After we returned from the Yaochi Mountain, your Third Apprentice-sister and I immediately left to see the Qi Family Ancestor. When he saw the twenty-thousand high divine grade spirit stones, he already agreed to rescind Qi Wen's betrothal with Zhu Family, but the Zhu Family's side..." His voice trailed off.

Huang Xiaolong's eyes narrowed, despite Liu Yun having left his words hanging, but Huang Xiaolong had already guessed what problem was; the Zhu Family's Ancestor!

Huang Xiaolong's tone turned somber, "Since the Qi Family Ancestor has already agreed to rescind the betrothal with the Zhu Family, it's not the Zhu Family's place to disagree, right? What's the reason for Zhu Family Ancestor to disagree?"

Liu Yun's smile reflected the bitterness in his heart, "The year when the Qi and Zhu Families' Ancestors set the betrothal, both sides had signed a blood contract. Unless both sides unanimously agree to dissolve the marriage, with the blood contract being in the Zhu Family Ancestor's hand..."

Huang Xiaolong's frown became deeper, "Did the Zhu Family Ancestor say under what conditions would he agree to dissolve the marriage?"

Liu Yun hesitated before saying, "The Zhu Family Ancestor said he would agree to dissolve it for twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones," Liu Yun paused then went on, "He also said that he must receive them before the Highgod Advancement Tournament."

Huang Xiaolong snorted, this Zhu Family Ancestor was basically asking for the moon.

Twenty-thousand high divine grade spirit stones!

This Zhu Family seemed to believe that as his Master Feng Yang was due to yield the Principal seat, his Senior Apprentice-brother Liu Yun was just clay that he could squash and mold as they liked?

"Senior Apprentice-brother, come on, we're making a trip to the Zhu Family's main manor!" Irritation seeped into Huang Xiaolong's heart thinking about this and got to his feet.

Liu Yun was flabbergasted: "Junior Apprentice-brother, you, this..."

Huang Xiaolong laughed, "It's only twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones, I can still afford it." Of course, it depended on whether the Zhu Family was capable of taking them from his hands.
