Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter 86 Qiao Feng's Boredom

Bai Ke was pondering how he would return to the Mountain and Sea Realm, how he would wreak havoc, and how he would claim the throne of the Heavenly Strategy Saint for himself.

Unexpectedly, he was awakened by a loud and hearty voice. Bai Ke looked up blankly and looked around. It turned out that Qiao Feng was calling him from the side.

Qiao Feng has been incredibly bored these past few days. He is a chivalrous and righteous man who longs to roam the martial world with a sword and help those in need.

However, after the battle at Shaoshi Mountain, in order to cure Azi's eye disease, he brought Azi and Xuzhu to Lingjiu Palace. The Nine Heavens and Nine Departments in Lingjiu Palace were all women, so how could he possibly fight?

The eighteen Khitan guards he had brought with him were sent back to the Liao Dynasty because it was inconvenient to bring horses up the Tianshan Mountains.

This made Qiao Feng even more embarrassed. He had saved the Lingjiu Palace from its imbalance of male and female, and now only he, Xu Zhu, and Bai Ke remained. Xu Zhu was busy reading the medical books left by the Heavenly Child Granny every day and had no time to spend with him.

Qiao Feng knew that Xu Zhu was quite busy, so he didn't bother him too much. As for Bai Ke, he had been in seclusion ever since their meeting that day.

Over the past few days, Qiao Feng has been the only male active in Lingjiu Palace, which has made him extremely frustrated. In his boredom, he has started to spar with himself.

Qiao Feng was a martial arts genius. These past few days, he had focused on practicing ambidextrous fighting and actually found some breakthroughs. Over there was the Beggar Clan's peerless martial art, the Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms.

The Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms are said to have been created by the founder of the Beggars' Sect. Along with the Dog-Beating Stick Technique, they are known as the two great martial arts of the Beggars' Sect. Among them, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms are the most famous.

In the original novel *Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils*, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms was created by Qiao Feng and Xu Zhu by combining the strengths of the Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms and the Dragon-Capturing Skill.

At this stage, Qiao Feng is still using the Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms passed down to him by Wang Jiantong. As he has been wandering in the martial arts world for a long time, he has become more and more proficient in using the Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms.

As he became more familiar with the techniques, Qiao Feng gradually summarized some patterns in his own use. Among the twenty-eight palm techniques of the Dragon Subduing Palm, the difference between the last ten palms and the first eighteen palms was quite obvious.

Bored by himself in Lingjiu Palace, Qiao Feng decided to make additions and deletions to the Twenty-Eight Subduing Dragon Palms, but it was ultimately not advisable to work alone in isolation.

Qiao Feng originally intended to find Granny She and have a match before making some changes, but unexpectedly he ran into Bai Ke, who had just come out of seclusion. Overjoyed, he called out to Bai Ke.

Bai Ke was taken aback for a moment, when Qiao Feng flashed over and grabbed his wrist. "Hahaha! Brother Bai has been in seclusion for many days, he must have made some progress. How about we have a match?"

Bai Ke also wanted to test the power of the martial arts he had learned in the underground tunnel, so he readily agreed. At this moment, Mei Jian and Zhu Jian also came over.

"How is Master Qiao? Young Master Bai has just emerged from seclusion and has not eaten or drunk for many days. We have already arranged a banquet. Why don't you two go ahead first, and then we can discuss your skills?"

Qiao Feng's eyes lit up. "There's a banquet? Hahaha, Brother Bai, I didn't expect you to be so handsome! I've been here for days and no one has ever offered me wine!"

Qiao Feng muttered in feigned distress, and Bai Ke shook his head helplessly. In the original novel of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," Qiao Feng was not this talkative.

Mei Jian and Zhu Jian exchanged a glance, then looked at Qiao Feng with wry smiles. "It was our rudeness. We will go and fetch some fine wine for Master Qiao right away."

Lingjiu Palace is located on the Misty Peak of Tianshan Mountain. Every year, the snowmelt from the mountain flows through the valley. The disciples in the palace often use Tianshan snow lotus and snowmelt to brew wine.

This snow lotus wine is sweet and refreshing. Not only will it not make you drunk, but it also has a cool and refreshing quality that is very popular among the female disciples in the palace.

The plum and bamboo swords were only taken out for Bai Ke's sake, and Qiao Feng drank like a whale swallowing its prey, so they couldn't bear to waste such precious things on him.

However, now that Qiao Feng had overheard them, the two could not pretend to refuse and had to agree, sending one of them to the Lingjiu Palace wine cellar to fetch snow lotus wine for them.

At the banquet, Qiao Feng praised the Snow Lotus Wine highly, saying that it would be even better if it were a bit stronger. Bai Ke, on the other hand, only took a small sip and then gave the entire bottle to Qiao Feng.

"What? Brother Bai doesn't like drinking?" Qiao Feng asked Bai Ke in surprise. Bai Ke turned his head, waved for Mei Jian and Zhu Jian, who were accompanying him, to leave the room, and then said:

"What a waste! What a waste! They've squandered such good snow lotus and snow mountain water. They didn't even distill the wine..." Bai Ke said indignantly, feeling regretful after buying the snow lotus and snow mountain water.

"Huh? Distilled? Could it be that Brother Bai has drunk better wine?" Qiao Feng asked, squinting his eyes. If this Snow Lotus Wine wasn't so weak, Qiao Feng would have thought it was heavenly nectar.

Unexpectedly, such fine wine was described as a waste by Bai Ke, so out of curiosity, I asked him.

"That's for sure. In my hometown, the process of brewing wine is as numerous as the stars in the sky, but the wine produced is even better than the finest nectar from heaven!"

Bai Ke smacked his lips as he spoke, as if he had actually tasted it. Qiao Feng was stunned... Could there really be such good wine in the world? But why had he never heard of it before?

Halfway through the drinking session, Qiao Feng couldn't help but ask Bai Ke again if they could work together to repair the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, just like they had fought each other.

Bai Ke was stunned. Wasn't it Qiao Feng and Xu Zhu who were discussing this in the original story? Why was Qiao Feng coming to find him? What was Xu Zhu doing now?

Thinking to himself, Bai Ke asked Qiao Feng aloud. Qiao Feng waved his hand and replied, "Second brother... I don't know either, but he was troubled by A Zi's eye transplant the other day."

Seeing that his second brother was exhausted, Qiao didn't go to see him. But after so many days, his second brother should have emerged from seclusion by now, right?

"Haha, Brother, you are indeed a master of foresight! I admire you greatly!" A voice came from outside the house, and then Xu Zhu, dressed in a simple white robe, stepped into the house.

"Second Brother?" "Master Xuzhu!" Two different titles came from Qiao Feng and Bai Ke. Xuzhu greeted them with a smile. "Second Brother, now that you've come out of seclusion, I suppose you've made progress on that matter?" Qiao Feng asked nervously. Last time, Xuzhu found some methods, but he didn't know if they were effective, so he had been reading medical books these past few days.

Now that he had emerged from the study, he must have gained some confidence. Sure enough, after hearing Qiao Feng's words, Xu Zhu pursed his lips, cupped his hands, and said to Qiao Feng, "I have not failed in my mission; the eye transplant will be completed tomorrow!"
