Chapter 97: Like a Dream

inted elder Zhuge Jun only has the cultivation of the peak of Tenglong.Such a sect's strength, of course, surpasses that of ordinary city-states. However, compared to Lingxiao Pavilion, which also has...Xiaoyueya Island is considered the most prosperous island in the central part of the nearshore archipelago.

It's not just that the name is similar to Moonlit Island, its status is also comparable. Overseas, it holds the same significance as Xiaolinzi in Qi State.

Of course, for Jiang Wang, the most important thing is that there are a few old friends here.

Jiang Wang's plan to go to sea for a case was already known by Xu Xiangqian and the others, as Yan Fu, who needed to leave first, had informed them beforehand.

As for the news that Jinzhimen's Wu Yi had already been executed, Li Longchuan considered it no secret. They had even been waiting for quite some time.

According to Xu Xiangqian's words: "Jiang Qingyang, I want to kill you!"

As evidenced by the poem:

I long for you, I long for you, to the point of death! I gaze for you, I gaze for you, but you still don't come!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Having finished his generous poem, Xu Xiangqian grinned triumphantly: "Well, what do you think of this verse It's a double entendre, can you hear it"

The banquet was held at Chunfenglou.

This building is said to be "where the spring breeze of the sea resides," and it's undoubtedly the top spot for revelry and entertainment.

When Xu Xiangqian is present, simple things don't usually need to be considered.

"Gazing at the expectations of Jiang Wang, dissolving them into the hopes and aspirations, truly remarkable. Brother Xu, your poetic talent has greatly improved, it is a cause for joy and celebration!"

Jiang Wang politely prevaricated for a moment, then turned to ask Li Longchuan, "Where's Brother Yan"

>

"I don't know which island he went to play at." Li Longchuan understood Jiang Wang's meaning and explained, "He had already told the owner of this place before leaving that this time the welcoming banquet was on his tab."

If Xu Xiangqian were to host a banquet, it would be unlikely that he could afford such a lavish one.

Just from the four beautiful women sitting behind a screen and playing the pipa, one can roughly imagine the price of this feast.

Don't be fooled by Xu Xiangqian's air of being the master of this place, he's just used to being shameless. This kind of guy who lives for the moment and spends all his money today, has been in these islands for so long that even if he had money, it would have been spent clean.

Matters of spending money usually came from Yan Fu, but at this time, Yan Fu was nowhere to be seen, which is why Jiang Wang had this question.

Xu Xiangqian nodded with satisfaction, pulling himself out of his poetic reverie and interjecting, "You have no guarantee he'll be here waiting for you. He's completely gone wild now, running around everywhere after going to sea!"

Yan Fu is a calm and reserved person. He does everything slowly and steadily, without haste or worry.

If it weren't for the fact that he was truly suffocating in Linzi, he would never have acted so recklessly. He was truly driven to stay indoors by Jiang Wuyou's relentless pressure.

Oh, it's really...

Jiang Wang couldn't help but laugh and asked Li Longchuan, "What about you guys What's really going on I heard some things that weren't very accurate."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Li Longchuan glanced at Xu Xiangqian, and curled his lips: “He sent me an urgent letter, saying that his inner palace had been broken into, and his divine seeds were about to be scattered. That’s why I rushed over last night…”

"Only when I arrived did I realize he had only lost a tooth!"

Li Longchuan seemed quite helpless.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But Xu Xiangqian jumped up and said: “Incisors are important, you know They're the face! You understand what I mean”

He spat and stole a moment to glare fiercely at Jiang Wang: "What are you looking at Get back to work!"

Blocking Jiang Wang's gaze, he caught her smirk as she eyed the gap in his front teeth.

Jiang Wang really didn't want to provoke him at this moment. He was now like a furious lion, raging mad because of his failed mating attempt. Ready to enter a duel state at any time.

"Front teeth are important!" Xu Xiangqian repeated.

He glanced at Li Longchuan's pearly white teeth.

Leaning back down and putting an arm around Jiang Wang's shoulder, he adopts a we-against-the-world attitude: "Forget it, you wouldn't understand the troubles of handsome guys like us."

Jiang Wang glanced at Li Longchuan, who was handsome and imposing. Then he looked at Xu Xiangqian, whose forehead was unusually high. It was hard to imagine how thick-skinned a person had to be to think he was more handsome than Li Longchuan.

Could it be that what protrudes isn't the forehead but the skin of the face

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

But then he thought again, since he was naturally assigned to the same camp due to his high offer, what did his appearance matter... His feelings of schadenfreude suddenly became complicated.

"Good teeth are important!" Li Longchuan reluctantly conceded, "But luckily, Brother Jiang is here. You tell us, we've had a fight and made an enemy of each other. Is it really worth fighting over a woman like this We can't keep arguing and making things difficult for ourselves here. After all, the islands off the coast belong to someone else."

“What do you mean by ‘jealousy’!” Xu Xiangqian glared at Li Longchuan, “Li Longchuan, I’m very displeased with your words.”

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

He was furious: “I and Miss Zhao are in love with each other. That scoundrel Yang Liu is a pest who keeps pestering us. Don’t you know that You said the strong dragon doesn’t oppress the local snake, so I listened to you and withdrew from Huai Dao and took refuge on Xiao Yueya Island. Miss Zhao couldn’t bear his harassment and also cared for me, so she ran to Xiao Yueya Island too. That shameless Yang Liu actually chased after us! Can you blame me for this Am I being jealous”

>

Li Longchuan couldn't stand it anymore. He was afraid that Jiang Wang might be misled, so he added from the side: "It was Miss Wuyan who came to Xiaoyueya first, and we followed later."

"All the same!"

Xu Xiangqian waved his hand and said, “We have a tacit understanding. We don't need to say anything, we just know what each other is thinking. It’s no coincidence that we’re both here.”

The more he spoke, the more insistent he became: "She's clearly into me. Her junior sister gets along well with me too."

“By the way, her junior sister is named Zishu.”

Xu Xiangqian turned his head to look at Jiang Wang, and patted him kindly on the shoulder: "I'll introduce you when the time comes."

Li Longchuan had already propped his chin up with his hand, unwilling to speak.

Jiang Wang was quite taken aback. He didn't know why he was suddenly being introduced.

What a Shuzi!

He saw through it now, Xu Xiangqian was completely being a nuisance, refusing to leave and even dragging Li Longchuan along with him.

Li Longchuan's friendship with him needless to say, boarded the thief ship, at this time it was also difficult to get off. After all, he couldn't really ignore him, letting him be bullied by others abroad.

Several people were quarreling here, but the four beauties playing the pipa remained remarkably composed. Xu Xiangqian was spouting nonsense poetry and rambling incoherently, yet they listened as if they hadn't heard a word, not missing a single note.

“I say,” Jiang Wang inquired curiously, “that Zhāo Wúyán girl, just who is she, that she could captivate Brother Xǔ so completely”

Even though Li Longchuan didn't agree with Xu Xiangqian's jealousy, he couldn't help but say: "She is the senior sister of Longmen Academy. She is a remarkable person and undoubtedly first-rate."

“Oh” Jiang Wang became even more curious: “What is she like What does she look like”

He was indeed very curious.

A scholar like Xu Xiangqian, accustomed to "gathering wind" in various brothels, a regular patron of pleasure houses, it's hard to imagine what kind of person could captivate him so much. To the point where he would fight with others as viciously as a street ruffian.

"Brother Jiang."

Xu Xiangqian looked at him, shook his head, and picked up a glass of wine.

In our lifetime, we will meet many people and see many landscapes. There are thousands of flowers and ten thousand kinds of people. But there is one person who cannot be said to be the best among all, nor can it be said that there is no other like him. But when you see him, you can't see anyone else. When you think of him, you can't accommodate anyone else in your heart.

Only then did you realize that your heart was so small, small enough to hold only one person.

He drained the cup of wine in one gulp, momentarily dazed: “Such a man as if dreaming, night after night, as if on schedule.” sea turtle, with its boundless power, was being stripped of its plates one by one.The extremely ferocious and powerful fish, Guangyuan, with its blood-red eyes rolling wildly within its fortress-like...
