"The two from Taoist Sect visited Fuchao City without a word to this Prince; I would have prepared a banquet to entertain both of you," said Zhou Zuixi with a shimmering figure. With a flicker, he had already moved from the wine house to the tea house on this side, taking a seat opposite Liang Yi and Su Youyi with a cheerful grin.

Although Zhou Zuixi's features bore a resemblance to Zhou Wudao by seventy percent, the demeanor of the two was entirely contrasting.

If Zhou Wudao looked more like a destitute and pedantic painter, then Zhou Zuixi resembled more a carefree playboy, exuding an air of reckless abandon and nonchalance, with a faint hint of alcohol lingering around him.

"The Second Prince jests. My junior sister and I are merely passing by, and we won't be staying long, so there's really no need to waste our time," replied Liang Yi.

"Since we have encountered the Second Prince today, let's consider it fate. I toast to the Second Prince," Liang Yi proposed, using tea in place of wine, holding up his cup with a warm smile towards Zhou Zuixi.

Initially not intending to get entangled with the Second Prince, Liang Yi naturally didn't refuse after the other party proactively initiated conversation.

"What pleasure is there in drinking tea? The Prince has recently acquired a fine pot of wine. Let's seize the moment to share a drink!" Laughing heartily, Zhou Zuixi stopped Liang Yi, who was about to sip his tea, and shook the simple white wine pot he held in his other hand, from which the sound of liquid sloshing could be heard.

"Ah..." Liang Yi was somewhat speechless as he was truly not fond of drinking, yet seeing Zhou Zuixi's excited face, eager to share something splendid, Liang Yi felt a bit embarrassed to refuse.

"Then I shall respectfully comply," he conceded.

"Hmm? What about Fairy Su? Would you like to try some as well? This was something the Prince acquired from Wind God Commerce at a certain cost," Zhou Zuixi looked towards Su Youyi, with her Luo Shen-like beauty, and kindly invited.

"No, thank you. I'm not accustomed to drinking," Su Youyi politely shook her head in refusal, unaffected by Zhou Zuixi's warm invitation.

"And this one is... the rumored Young Master of the Demon Clan, right?" Zhou Zuixi had been about to pour wine for Liang Yi when he suddenly became aware of another gaze fixed on him.

He was taken aback when he located the source of the gaze, for it was a mythical creature he had never seen before.

However, while Zhou Zuixi might seem idle every day, he was still privy to the most current intelligence, aware that the mysterious Grand Saint of Nine Spirits had given birth to a child who was extremely close to Liang Yi, presumably this one before him.

"Or else what, meow?" Grand Duke Orange said, hands stuffed in pockets and tone blunt with irritation, holding a grudge for being completely overlooked.

"My apologies for my lack of perception. I shall self-punish with three cups of wine as an apology," Zhou Zuixi laughed, pouring out three cups of a clear, clean liquid from the wine pot, and drank them down with gusto.

"Ah... Refreshing! It's been a long time since I've encountered wine of such caliber; this trip back wasn't in vain!" Zhou Zuixi set down his cup, his face flushed with a reddish hue. He had shown signs of sobriety just a moment ago but now seemed to revert to a drunken state.

"Were you not in Fuchao City before, Second Prince?" asked Liang Yi, curious as he watched Zhou Zuixi serving the wine.

Su Youyi, on the other hand, looked puzzled at the liquid pouring from the white, elegant wine pot.

It was clearly wine, but even at close range, she couldn't detect the slightest scent of alcohol; rather, the smell seemed to exude from Zhou Zuixi himself.

The first impression Su Youyi got from the wine was that it was "clean"; not a single impurity in the liquid, and the pattern at the bottom of the cup was clearly visible.

Moreover, the most peculiar aspect was that from Su Youyi's perspective, she unexpectedly saw the image of a crescent moon appearing inside the wine cup.

The crescent moon would vanish when the liquid stirred and reappear when the cup was still. Paired with the exquisite white jade cups Zhou Zuixi brought out, it truly appeared as if a crescent moon was adrift amidst the boundless white clouds.

"Ha ha, this prince had heard of an exotic wine from Desert North with a wild flavor and itched to go and explore," Zhou Zuixi handed the wine cup to Liang Yi, and also passed one to Elder Orange.

"But halfway there, I suddenly heard news of the Abyss Seal breaking and a war transforming the thousand-mile desert, leaving me no choice but to return in regret. However, I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain here."

Zhou Zuixi smiled and shook the wine jug in his hand, indicating that this was his unexpected gain. He looked extremely satisfied.

"I seldom drink, but it's a fortunate thing to taste this exquisite wine that even Prince praises so highly." Liang Yi raised his cup to gesture and then drank it all in one gulp.

Sitting to the left of the table, Elder Orange held the white jade wine cup with his paws, a somewhat torn expression on his face. This thing doesn't smell like anything, could it possibly taste good?

But after seeing Liang Yi's action, Elder Orange no longer hesitated, sticking out his tongue and lightly lapping up a small sip.

Drinking can lead to trouble, Elder Orange wasn't afraid of getting drunk and acting crazy!

Upon tasting the wine, the first thing Liang Yi felt was its gentleness. The liquid didn't spread out as it was swallowed, it slid down smoothly like a silk thread.

Then his taste buds began to send feedback to his brain, it was an indescribable flavor, completely different from the beer or white spirits he had tasted in his past life!

Liang Yi didn't like drinking in his past life simply because it didn't taste good. Wouldn't spending the money for wine on a couple of bottles of soda be nicer?

Having come to this world, Liang Yi had also tasted some of the Spiritual Wine here, and it was undeniably better than what he had in his past life. But that was all; if he had to choose between those wines and soda, he would definitely go for the soda.

But now, the scale in Liang Yi's heart had finally tipped.

Liang Yi felt somewhat light and floaty, but it wasn't the kind of lightness from drunkenness. It came from the meanings contained within the Spiritual Wine!

In a daze, Liang Yi's perspective pulled further and further away, flying higher and higher from the teahouse. The sky around him was gradually darkening, and yet his vision did not become obscure, it even grew brighter a bit.

By the time Liang Yi came back to his senses, he was already high above the sky. The cool night wind brushed against his nose, carrying an inexplicably pleasant scent, and beneath his feet was an endless sea of bright silver clouds!

Liang Yi looked at the light and realized something was off, and turned back.

Behind him was none other than the bright moon, so close within reach!

The light of the bright moon was gentle and luminous, and it strangely matched the feeling when the wine entered his throat.

The bright moon above, the sea of clouds below, Liang Yi alone floated, vast between heaven and earth!

This wine is called: Bright Moon Edge!

"Truly astonishing!" Liang Yi put down the cup with his eyes full of wonder. Not just for the lifelike illusion, but also for the tangible attribute enhancement.

[Lonely Moon Intent]: Lone moon hangs in the azure sky, one's body like a floating cloud. Evasion Attribute increased by 15%, lasting for 24 hours.
