Chapter 473: Chapter 473: The Fairy’s Laugh (2nd Update)
Azure Dragon held a cup in hand, savoring the look of Zhu Ruyan, “Miss Ruyan truly lives up to her reputation, indeed a ravishing beauty!”
Zhu Ruyan remained silent for a moment, “Thank you for the compliment, young master!”
“Come, drink this cup!” Azure Dragon passed her a cup of wine.
Zhu Ruyan trembled slightly, then stretched out her delicate hand, took the cup, and drank it all in one gulp.
“What a drinker!” Azure Dragon clapped in admiration, “I heard that Miss Ruyan came from a place of ill repute, I didn’t believe it. But seeing her capacity for wine today, I now know the rumors were true.”
The remark was a veiled insult, grating to the ears.
Zhu Ruyan’s complexion turned slightly pale, but she only said softly, “The young master jests.”
Zhu Lei, wanting to smooth things over, hurriedly said with a smile, “Sir, my junior sister only ended up in that place because of a great misfortune that befell her family. She emerged from the mud unsoiled and remained pure.”
The senior brother, with a sycophantic face, told others that his junior sister was untouched.
The situation was utterly ridiculous.
But Zhu Ruyan just bowed her head gently, not making a sound.
Azure Dragon, for some reason, suddenly became angry and said coldly.
“Emerging from the mud unsoiled? Ha! I simply don’t believe there’s a woman in this world who can resist all external temptations! What ‘unsullied one’, nothing but deceit and theft of reputation! And after being with him for so long, I bet she is nothing but a wilted flower!”
Zhu Lei muttered and dared not speak.
Azure Dragon waved a hand, “You may leave, there’s no further need for you here!”
Zhu Lei hesitated for a moment, then bowed, “As you wish!”
As he left, he gently closed the door behind him.
Now only Azure Dragon and Zhu Ruyan remained in the room.
“Pour the wine!”
Zhu Ruyan obediently picked up the wine pot and filled a cup.
Azure Dragon took it and drained it in one gulp.
And so, the room fell into silence.
Zhu Ruyan poured; Azure Dragon drained.
No one knew how much time had passed.
At any rate, more than a dozen wine pots had been emptied.
Azure Dragon was somewhat bleary-eyed, sprawling indolently on the soft couch in the room, waving at Zhu Ruyan, “Come here!”
Zhu Ruyan silently stood up, her hands naturally falling to her sides, and the short sword hidden in her sleeve slid into her left hand.
This was a good opportunity.
This Azure Dragon was now drunk, and if she approached him and struck suddenly, even if he were an immortal, he would fall to her blade.
As long as she killed this man, her own death would be worth it!
As she made her calculations, Zhu Ruyan slowly walked toward the couch.
But just as she stepped within striking distance, Azure Dragon said indifferently, “You’re very good at keeping your composure!”
Zhu Ruyan was startled.
“I’m guessing you’re holding a short sword in your right hand hidden in your sleeve!”
Zhu Ruyan’s face turned a bit pale, yet she only said softly, “The young master jests again!”
But as she looked down, Zhu Ruyan suddenly erupted into action, her short sword turning into a streak of light, thrusting at Azure Dragon.
The full force of a strike from the peak of the Loose Immortal was not to be underestimated.
Yet Azure Dragon did not move, only sitting with a mocking air on the couch, watching.
Just as the sword was about to reach Azure Dragon’s face, Zhu Ruyan felt a darkness before her eyes, and her surging cultivation level receded like a tide.
