Chapter 0078 – The Regiment Goes Crazy – Absolute Returns

Zhang Hu, is not a reckless person who likes to be in the limelight.

However, the man who was under control dared to talk about the “right arm position” in front of him, which made him very unhappy.

He was the first to perceive that this banquet today was actually for this man.

“I guess we came here today for the man who was restrained.” He secretly sent a message to Ian and Xi Da Long.

Ian took heart and took the lead, while West Dallon, followed close behind.

Zhang Hu, who has been in the battlefield for a long time and has a lot of experience, keenly senses that here, it is about to become a battlefield where no smoke can be seen.

“Why are you clinging to the right arm position?” The man lifted his head and stared sharply at Zhang Hu as he asked, “If it were up to me, I would rather be the left arm and sit back and watch the battle for the right arm.”

“I don’t have that kind of leisure to watch others fight.” Zhang Hu shot back without showing any weakness, “Since I want to be the right arm, I will definitely go all out and fight to the end!”

“Good one, ambitious!” The man appreciated.

“Thanks for the compliment.” Zhang Hu said indifferently.

The Windy Sky Sect Master, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two of them clearly, and his heart was suddenly filled with mixed feelings.

“Aspirational? What a joke! When have you ever said such a thing?” He sent a secret message to the man, a hint of sour jealousy in his tone.

“You don’t know me, well enough.” The man transmitted his voice back, “I, am not as silent and unsmiling as you think. I, too, can joke and make wisecracks.”

“Is this the time to talk about this?!” Sect Leader Windsky furiously transmitted his voice.

“You started the conversation.” The man transmitted back in a faint voice.

“Well, even if I started it, then what are they doing, now?” Sect Leader Windy Sky looked at Ian, Xi Da Long and Zhang Hu who surrounded the man, his heart filled with doubt and uneasiness, “What do they, exactly, want?”

“Can’t you see? They, are doing their best for their young master, ah.” The man transmitted his voice back.

“Despicable!” Sect Leader Windsky gritted his teeth and transmitted, “I, you’re the only one, while he, he has so many people, working for him!”

“What do you usually, do?” The man transmits his voice and asks rhetorically, “Under you, so many people, why, but no one, is willing to go through fire for you?”

“So, what you’re saying is that Simon the Snow Blower, he knows, better than me, how to enlist people?” Windy Sky Sect Master asked in a voice transmission, his tone carrying a hint of …… inferiority that he himself did not even notice?

“If he really wanted to pull you in, he wouldn’t have just sent these people, to show you.” The man transmitted his voice back, “He, must have, other purposes.”

“Other purposes?” When Sect Leader Windsky heard this, his heart immediately flinched, and he hurriedly transmitted his voice to ask, “What purpose?”

The man, however, did not answer his question.

Sect Leader Windsky looked at the man, his heart filled with doubt and uneasiness.

He suddenly realized that he had, like, made a, fatal mistake!

“Young Master Ximen, you are truly blessed to have so many loyal men.” He looked at me and said with a smile, but his tone carried a hint of …… envy that he himself didn’t even notice?

“Where, where, senior is flattered.” I said with a smile, “They, all of them, are my friends, my brothers.”

“Friend? Brothers?” Sect Leader Windy Sky repeated these two words, and a trace of imperceptible …… despondency flashed in his eyes?

“Yes, friend, brother.” I nodded and smiled, “Between us, there is no master and servant, only, life and death.”

“A friend in life and death ……” The Windy Sky Sect Leader repeated the word once again, a trace of imperceptible …… longing flashing in his eyes?

“Here, I’ll toast you.” He said, picking up the decanter and filling a glass of wine for me, then raised his own glass and said with a smile, “To us, a long-lasting friendship!”

“Cheers!” I smiled and raised my glass, clinking it with him and drinking it down.

Sect Leader Windsky looked at me, a trace of complexity flashing in his eyes.

He suddenly realized that he was, like, really, wrong.

He missed out, on someone, who could have been his, true friend.

“Young Master Ximen, your cultivation, is truly unfathomable!” He put down the wine cup, looked at me, and said with a smile, “I just, purposely, injected a trace of true qi into the wine, and I didn’t expect that you, surprisingly, didn’t react at all.”

As he spoke, he secretly watched my reaction, trying to see something in my expression.

However, I just smiled faintly and said, “Senior is joking, how can this humble Taoist skill of my junior enter senior’s eyes?”

I didn’t tell him that I had already detected the true qi he had injected into the wine, only, I didn’t point it out.

Because, I know, he did it just to, to test me.

“Come, senior, I’ll toast you.” As I said that, I picked up the wine pot and filled a cup of wine for Sect Leader Feng Tian, then raised my own cup and said with a smile, “Please.”

The Windy Sky Sect Master looked at me, and a trace of …… gratitude flashed imperceptibly in his eyes?

He picked up his glass, clinked it with mine, and drank it down.

“Good wine!” He exclaimed, “Young Master Ximen, your capacity for alcohol, it’s really good!”

“Senior is overpraised.” I said with a smile, “This amount of alcohol capacity of the late generation, how can it compare to you, senior?”

“Come, let’s have another drink!” Sect Leader Windsky said, raising his wine cup once again.

I smiled and clinked my glass with his, taking a drink.
