How did a bastard like him become an immortal?

After a good, unbridled drink, Li Muyun and Zhu Jiutong, still feeling quite drunk, strolled slowly along the shade of the sycamore trees, their steps unsteady.

He was still carrying the jar of fine, thousand-year-old incense in his hand. Every two or three steps, he would gulp down the nectar, feeling intoxicated and hazy all the way to his own residence.

Immersed in the joy of wine, the willows on the riverbank droop, spring is in full bloom, all huddled together in a hazy, dreamlike state—simply beautiful, simply wonderful, simply intoxicating.

He had many hobbies in his life, and drinking was one of them.

Wine is the spirit of water, nurtured and brewed by the primordial energy of heaven and earth. It has both a mild fragrance and a strong, bold flavor. After a cup of wine, one's eyes glaze over, becoming hazy and intoxicated. Thoughts drift through one's mind, and one no longer cares about them.

It is as if one has forgotten all worries, felt tender and lingering, and was intoxicated and carefree, as if one had transcended the mortal world and ascended to a fairyland.

Even for cultivators, while it's easy to get drunk on non-top-quality pure wines mixed with spiritual energy, it's far from enough to overwhelm their spiritual consciousness.

Not to mention that when cultivators cultivate their true essence, their limbs and bones surge and roar, and just one cycle of circulation is enough to completely dissipate the effects of alcohol.

The idea that monks use drunkenness as an excuse for debauchery has always been nonsense. Laws and regulations in both the court and the public clearly stipulate that anyone who uses drunkenness as an excuse will be punished more severely.

Li Muyun's steps were unsteady at this moment, his usually firm steps were unsteady, and he was lying on his back.

If someone with limited knowledge were to see this, they might mistakenly believe that Li Yinyang was practicing some mysterious movement technique.

But Li Muyun was truly drunk now, his consciousness was mostly hazy, and he seemed to see clouds drifting by in a daze. His nascent soul was also slumped over, sitting on the sea of ​​consciousness, blowing bubbles from its nose.

Each step he took on the ground made Zhu Jiutong behind him break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, there was no official business to attend to today, and there were few people around on this shady path. Otherwise, seeing Li Yinyang in such a drunken state, they might have secretly impeached him, which would have been enough to make him drink a few more jugs.

Brother Li is truly a man of character. When he drinks, he becomes a completely different person, unlike his usual humble and low-key self.

His true nature is one of arrogance and domineering nature, pride and stubbornness. He always drinks his cup to the last drop and has never uttered a word of dissent.

He had only taken a few sips when Li Muyun angrily reprimanded him for "raising fish" (a euphemism for cheating on someone), and only after Li Muyun forced him to drink two cups did his angry expression soften.

Drinking with Brother Li is really a bit of a killer!

"Hey……"

Zhu Jiutong felt a chill run down his spine. He saw Li Muyun tremble in the distance, and just as he was about to shout, he saw Li Muyun stand up abruptly.

His figure was agile, like a delicate puppet, swift and powerful, swaying but not falling, so he could only follow Li Muyun step by step.

To determine whether a cultivator is merely flattering and seeking fame through drinking, or has a particular fondness for jade dew, a key point is to observe how he leaves the house after drinking.

If one strides confidently with head held high, like a shooting star, then a normal person might simply turn their head to circulate their inner energy and dispel the drowsiness in their mind. Most of them are merely pretentious types who drink alcohol simply for enjoyment and entertainment.

Another type is like Li Muyun, who walks without any hesitation, leaning against the wall, almost crawling, and is a true gentleman of elegance.

Zhu Jiutong chuckled a few times, then shook his head and sighed to himself.

Brother Li has one good quality, which can help us strengthen our friendship. However, drinking with Brother Li is quite a hassle.

Watching from afar as Li Muyun finally touched the beam of his house and stepped across the threshold, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned back.

But the smile on his lips was even brighter than the spring sunshine reflecting on the green trees.

……

Li Muyun was in a daze, unable to hold his liquor, his mind hazy. He took off his shoes and socks, crawled onto the soft bed, and felt as if he were on a cloud, so soft and comfortable. He closed his eyes slightly, feeling extremely comfortable.

Half-asleep, stumbling and staggering, it was as if I had stumbled into a moonlit pavilion.

The morning mist is thick, the sky is clear, and the ripples on the lake are a deep blue, reflecting the jade pavilions, flying eaves and painted corners, as if the sky and water are connected, a beautiful and wonderful scene, like being in a fairyland.

Li Muyun sat there, his expression somewhat strange, and a throbbing pain returned to his mind, as if he couldn't remember something.

"Yun'er! Listen to the music of my zither. This piece, 'Floating Wine Cup,' is played for you!"

Joyful voice echoed like a secluded valley, its crisp sound rippling across the azure lake and striking deep into Li Muyun's heart.

Li Muyun looked up blankly, but was also tingled by the voice, and couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Later, the sounds of gold and jade clashing, silver beads pinging, and falling petals mingling with the gentle murmur of flowing water and the clear, melodious notes of the guqin, created a captivating and enchanting atmosphere.

Upon hearing the sound, Li Muyun stood up. Suddenly, a burning sensation spread through his body, especially intense in his lower abdomen.

The crisp sound arrived abruptly, then transformed into boundless, rapid, and frantic sounds, like the mournful murmurs of a woman longing for her absent lover, or the sounds of flesh entwined, heavy breathing, and lewdness crashing down on the music like a tidal wave.

Li Muyun gave a strange smirk and shook his head, thinking he had encountered another strange event, when suddenly his divine sense burst forth with brilliant golden light.

The nascent soul figure, no longer exhausted and drowsy, now possessed a clear, golden body, as flawless and captivating as crystal, radiating light.

This azure fairyland, like snow in springtime, melted away rapidly, and the pavilions in the air gradually cracked and collapsed, revealing the originally dim and quiet pavilions.

Li Muyun broke through the illusion, the alcohol on his face completely dissipated, and his expression returned to its usual coldness as he stared at the uninvited guest before him.

A beautiful and delicate young woman lay sprawled on the ground, her clothes mostly removed, revealing skin as white as snow. She caressed her fair and jade-like body with her hands, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes captivating, gazing at Li Muyun with a mesmerizing charm.

The most alluring and captivating feature is the two fluffy, snow-white fox ears that grow from the girl's hair bun, and the soft, fluffy snow tail behind her that sways and twists unconsciously, exuding charm and allure.

Even with Li Muyun's strong will and perseverance, he was momentarily stunned, but he showed no sign of romantic interest.

This alluring fox spirit, lying on the bed wanting to throw herself into his arms, is probably starving and trying to drain him dry.

But this fox demon looks strangely familiar.

Looking again, Li Muyun recalled the scene of him impersonating a guard in front of the Sun and Moon Temple.

This eerie aura and these strange sounds, there's no mistake.

His heart sank immediately, his face turned cold, and he asked sharply.

"Witch, what is your intention in trespassing on my residence?"

"Can't you see the obvious intention, sir?"

Unexpectedly, the previously arrogant and domineering girl revealed a sweet and ingratiating side, responding in a soft and tingling voice.

"Hmph! How dare you! What do you take me for! If you don't want to die, get out of here right now!"

Li Muyun was completely unmoved by this, his true energy surging within him as he shouted loudly.
