Chapter 0402 – A Strange Encounter in the Cold Pool – Absolute Return

“Who would get drunk in a place like this?” The green-robed middle-aged man’s face sank.

“I’ll go take a look.” One of the men in black said, turning around and walking out.

The man in black opened the door to the secret room, only to see a faint layer of fog permeating the end of the corridor.

“What’s going on?”

Why is it foggy in this dungeon?

A hint of alarm rose in the black-robed man’s heart, and he gripped the longsword in his hand tightly as he slowly walked towards the end of the corridor.

As he drew closer, the layer of fog grew thicker, and a rich scent of wine filled the air.

“Wine breath?” The man in black was shocked, “Could it be ……”

Before the words fell, a black shadow shot out of the mist and blasted a fist into his chest.

The man in black was caught off guard and was blown away by a punch, hitting the wall hard and fainting.

The fog cleared, revealing a lanky figure.

The visitor was none other than the Drunken Devil.

A faint layer of intoxicating qi surrounded his body, like a layer of protective astral aura.

The drunken demon walked to the door of the chamber and pushed it open.

“What man?”

Seeing this, the other man in black swung his sword towards the Drunken Demon.

The Drunken Devil’s figure flickered, easily dodging the attack, and slapped a backhanded palm on the black-clothed man’s neck.

“Bang!”

The man in black fell to the ground in response, unconscious.

The drunken qi in the corridor, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, quickly surged into the secret room and surrounded the drunken devil, forming a huge vortex of drunken qi.

When the green-robed middle-aged man saw this, his face changed greatly.

His two henchmen, both of whom were long-experienced experts, were actually subdued by the other party in the blink of an eye, showing that the strength of the visitor was far above him.

However, he didn’t despair because he still had an ace up his sleeve.

“Who is Your Excellency? Why are you meddling in this matter?” The green-robed middle-aged man forced himself to calm down and asked in a deep voice.

The Drunken Devil ignored him and walked straight to the white jade bedside to check Yang Yi’s injuries.

Yang Yi was already frozen to death at this moment, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and he looked like he was about to die.

Seeing this, the Drunken Devil frowned slightly and hurriedly unbuckled the belt on Yang Yi’s body, then held his wrist and fed a stream of pure true qi into his body.

“Well ……”

With the help of the Drunken Demon True Qi, Yang Yi gradually regained his consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.

“What are you?” Yang Yi asked weakly.

“Don’t talk, rest first.” Drunken Devil said softly.

When the green-robed middle-aged man saw that the Drunken Devil was so concerned about Yang Yi, his heart became even more puzzled.

“Who exactly is Your Excellency? Why did you save him?”

Only then did the Drunken Devil turn his head and coldly glanced at the green-robed middle-aged man.

“You don’t deserve to know who I am yet.”

“You ……”

The green-robed middle-aged man was suddenly speechless, his heart was burning with anger, but he didn’t dare to attack.

“You better let him go or ……”

“How else?” A cold glint flashed in the Drunken Devil’s eyes.

The green-robed middle-aged man immediately felt a powerful pressure that enveloped his body, making him unable to move.

“What the …… hell are you?”

“Drunken Devil.”

“What?”

When the green-robed middle-aged man heard this, his face turned ashen.

The black-robed man behind him also changed his face drastically.

Drunken Devil, one of the eight Devils of the Devil Sect, with unfathomable strength and a fierce reputation in the jianghu.

“How did you …… you get here?”

“I’ll save the day.” Drunken Devil said coldly.

“Save someone?” The green-robed middle-aged man froze, “Save who?”

“Yang Yi.”

“You know him?”

“Not recognizable.”

“Then why did you save him?”

“Trusted.”

“Who?”

“You don’t need to know.”

“You ……”

The green-robed middle-aged man wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by the drunken devil.

“You talk too much crap.”

“You ……”

The green-robed middle-aged man was suddenly speechless, his heart was burning with anger, but he didn’t dare to attack.

Yang Yi also heard their conversation and was shocked in his heart.

“He …… he is actually the devil of the devil sect?”

Although Yang Yi was just an ordinary person, he had heard of the ferocious reputation of the Devil Cult.

“How did he come to my rescue?”

“Could it be ……”

Yang Yi suddenly thought of something, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.

“Could it be her?”

“I’ve been dripping drunk lately, and I’m in a somewhat irritable mood.” The Drunken Demon said indifferently, his gaze sweeping over the green-robed middle-aged man and the black-robed man with a hint of warning in his tone, “You’d better not challenge my patience.”

He pulled out a delicate jade bottle from his bosom and pulled the cork, and a rich intoxicating fragrance filled the air.

“Good wine!”

The green-robed middle-aged man and the black-robed man, are people who know what they are talking about, and at a glance, they can see that this jade bottle is loaded with absolutely extraordinary goods.

“What do you want?” A trace of ominous foreboding rose in the heart of the green-robed middle-aged man.

“Nothing, just want to buy you guys a drink.” The Drunken Devil said, pouring the drunken liquid from the jade bottle into Yang’s mouth slowly.

“What …… did you give him to drink?” The green-robed middle-aged man was shocked and angry.

“Don’t worry, it’s just some tonic wine.” The Drunken Demon said indifferently, “Of course, if you guys want to taste it as well, I can satisfy you.”

“You ……”

The green-robed middle-aged man was suddenly speechless, his heart was burning with anger, but he didn’t dare to attack.

He knew that he was not a match for the Drunken Devil at all, and if he really angered him, he was afraid that his life would be hard to protect today.

“Let’s go!”

The green-robed middle-aged man clenched his teeth and brought the black-robed man with him, leaving the secret room in ashes.

The Drunken Devil looked at their departing backs, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Bunch of jumpers. “

He turned around, looked at Yang Yi, and asked, “How do you feel?”

“Many thanks to the benefactor for saving my life.” Yang Yi struggled to get up, but the Drunken Demon pressed down on his shoulders.

“There’s no need to be polite, the cold poison in your body has yet to be cleared, so take a good rest first.”

“Eunuch, how did you know I was here?” Yang Yi asked, his heart filled with doubts.

“It was your wife that asked me to get you out.” The drunken demon said.

“What?” Yang Yi froze at the words, “My wife? How is this possible?”

“How is it impossible? Couldn’t your wife have known a character like me?” The drunken devil asked rhetorically.

“This ……”

Yang Yi was suddenly speechless, not knowing what to say.

His wife, just an ordinary peasant woman, how could she know the Demon Lord of the Demon Sect?

“I know you have a lot of questions, but now is not the time to talk about them.” The Drunken Demon said, “When your body recovers, I will naturally tell you everything.”

“Many thanks to the Benefactor.” Yang Yi said gratefully.

“No need to be polite.” The Drunken Demon said indifferently, “Rest well, I’ll be right back.”

After saying that, the Drunken Devil turned around and left the chamber.

Yang Yi looked at the Drunken Devil’s departing back, his heart filled with gratitude and doubt.

“Who the hell is he? Why did you help me?”

“How would my wife, again, know him?”

Yang Yi’s heart was filled with questions, but no one could give him answers.

All he could do was lie in bed and wait quietly for the return of the drunken demon.
