Seeing Luo Li glaring at him, Gao Zhe knew that he had said something wrong.
“What I mean is, you’re not an ordinary person.” He explained with a shy smile.
Apart from the fact that Lou Mu Yan’s cultivation base looked relatively weak, but her other talents were simply too amazing, not at all outdone by the genius elites of their superpower kingdoms.
A Grade 3 Alchemist was someone that even a Clan like theirs would strive to win over. If she continued to develop like this, then her future would be immeasurable.
He gave Luo Li a look that said ‘it seems you have good eyesight’.
“Lou Mu Yan, you should focus on your cultivation.” Luo Li suggested.
Lou Mu Yan’s cultivation base was still a little low. Although she had the strength to skip-stage battle, but once she encountered a Sword Master like his elder brother, then the possibility of winning was too small.
Moreover, the cultivation base was also linked to the other occupations. For example if one wanted to become a Grade 4 Alchemist, one needed a Sword Sovereign cultivation base to be able to condense a level of Elemental Energy flame of the equal level, and Array Master’s levels were also inseparable from cultivation base.
Luo Li thought that Lou Mu Yan focused on studying Arrays and Alchemy because it was a hobby. He didn’t want her to forget the fundamentals.
Lou Mu Yan knew that Luo Li was just kindly reminding her, but she couldn’t tell him that in fact, she used to be a Terminal Meridians trash, and it had only been less than a year since she could start cultivating.
“Mm, I’ll pay attention in the future.” She thought about it and agreed with a smile.
“Are we still travelling at night or during the day?” Luo Li asked for her opinion.
Lou Mu Yan said decisively: “Night.” If she wanted to participate in the Trade Fair, she naturally had to go with Luo Li and the others.
Luo Li and Gao Zhe looked at each other and saw the other’s eyes reveal an ‘as expected’ expression.
“Then we’ll go back first. See you between seven and nine1.” Luo Li put the jug in his hand into his interspatial ring, stood up and bid farewell.
“Mm.”
After the two left Lou Mu Yan’s room, they went straight to Luo Ye’s place.
“Eldest Brother, Lou Mu Yan wants to follow us to the Trade Fair. I promised her already.” Luo Li sat down beside Luo Ye and said.
Luo Ye also knew that some things were long destined, “When will we leave?”
“Tonight at the time between seven and nine.” Luo Li replied.
As soon as Luo Ye heard it, he guessed that this was definitely the time set by Lou Mu Yan. Younger Brother had already fallen into love unconsciously, and he didn’t know whether it was good or bad.
But people’s hearts and feelings weren’t controlled by him. If he interfered forcibly, it may even develop in an unexpected direction.
Let it all happen with fate!
“Then it’ll be between seven and nine tonight.”
Luo Li took out the Spiritual Wine gifted by Lou Mu Yan and said, showing off: “Elder Brother, what do you think this is?”
Luo Ye took the jug, opened it, smelt it, and asked with amusement: “Did you steal Dad’s Blood Sac Wine again?”
However, the smell of the wine wasn’t very similar. Could it be that this wine wasn’t brought out by Luo Li from home?
“Dad hides his Spiritual Wine so safely now, how could I find it.” Luo Li approached Luo Ye mischievously and said: “This is what Lou Mu Yan gifted me.”
“Lou Mu Yan gifted it? How could she have such Spiritual Wine?” The older, middle-aged man asked curiously.
Lou Mu Yan came from an unknown small kingdom in the Eastern Region, and it was unlikely that she could make friends with a high-level Spiritual Wine Master, so this pot of Spiritual Wine must have been obtained from other places.
Seeing that the several people sitting here were looking at him curiously, and his elder brother’s emotions also fluctuated, he said leisurely: “Lou Mu Yan brewed it herself.”

“What?” The older man smiled in disbelief, “How old is she to make this sort of Spiritual Wine? Don’t be deceived by the little girl’s sweet words.”
He could see that Luo Li had a crush on the woman named Lou Mu Yan, but he felt that the background of the two was too different, and their identities weren’t a good match.
Now that he heard such a thing, he now believed that Lou Mu Yan was tricking Luo Li.
Luo Li furrowed his brows, displeased, “Whether she lied to me or not, I naturally have the ability to judge, so you don’t need to worry about it.”
Luo Qing He was an existence like a personal guard for him and his elder brother that his father placed beside them. Recently, he liked to interfere in his affairs more and more and his heart was a little displeased.
“Little Young Master, the Patriarch asked me to take care of you, so naturally I can’t let you be deceived. That woman, at first glance, you could tell she’s the restless type. She’s just coaxing you for the power behind your background.” Luo Qing He said expressionlessly.
Luo Li’s temperament was simply too difficult to discipline. Although he was from a branch of the Luo Clan, but he was also a leader in his generation. Otherwise, Patriarch wouldn’t let him follow Lord Luo and Luo Li, so he felt that he naturally had some prestige.
Luo Li sneered: “Who are you to interfere with my affairs.”
Lou Mu Yan didn’t flatter him at all. Instead, it was actually he who was approaching her to befriend her. Luo Qing He’s slandering of Lou Mu Yan made him very disgusted. What’s that about.
He quickly rescued the Spiritual Wine from the claws of Gao Zhe and the others and put it away. It was given to him by that woman, so he wouldn’t give it to them.
“Don’t wave around a chicken feather as a token of authority2. If you keep chirping about, then get lost from our elite team.” Luo Li exuded coldness, “I believe that the other team of Rong’ze Kingdom will definitely welcome you.”
After saying that, regardless of Luo Qing He’s livid expression, he addressed Luo Ye, hummed a little tune, and returned to his room.
This Luo Qing He looked stable before, but ever since he was selected by his dad to join the competition, he had become more and more presumptuous. He also had secret connections with the other team members, so his heart was unfaithful.
“Young Lord, I just don’t want Little Young Master to be led astray. Hearing him say such words, forgive me for I cannot bear it.” Luo Qing He revealed anger on his face.
Luo Ye just glanced at him lightly, “You can leave today.”
Luo Qing He was startled and looked at him in disbelief, “Young Lord, what do you mean by this?”
“My Younger Brother naturally has me to discipline him.” Luo Ye’s voice was cold, “You have overstepped.”
“Alright! Since the Young Lord has said this, then it is unnecessary for me to continue to stay here. I hope you will not regret it.” Luo Qing He stood up with a grim expression and left the room with a flick of his sleeves.
What’s that about? After being kicked out, although Luo Qing He was very angry, but he also felt a little fortunate. If he could advance into the top hundred and join a sect this time, he would be able to leave the Luo Clan. By then, he’d just watch how the two brothers of the Luo Clan could still be arrogant in front of him.
As for that Lou Mu Yan. He sneered. Only Luo Li would care about that kind of restless woman. Go lie to a ghost—as if she could brew that kind of Spiritual Wine.
He was disdainful against her. Luo Li was also an idiot in front of stunning women. If he were the son of the head of the Clan and had so many resources to enjoy, he wouldn’t be much worse off than these two brothers either.
Luo Li dared to belittle him like this—one day he would want these two brothers to crawl beneath his feet.
He didn’t linger. Taking the chance while it was still daytime, he quickly left the city after collecting his things.
“Young Lord, Luo Qing He’s heart has grown too big.” A man in the same team said.
He couldn’t understand his own identity clearly. Without the protection of the Luo Clan, Luo Qing He wouldn’t even know how he died.
“No matter. Let him go.”
Luo Ye lowered his eyes. He saw a faint aura of decline on Luo Qing He, and it was even related to Luo Mu Yan in the future, so he let him go.
Such a person from a branch clan who no longer had the Luo Clan in his heart had no need to return with him.
At the time between seven and nine o’clock at night, Lou Mu Yan’s team joined Luo Li and the others, and as soon as they reached the gate of the city, they saw He Lian Lie walking over with a smile.
1they don’t actually say the words ‘seven and nine pm’ but instead ‘the time of xu’ 戌时 (xū shí) which is the time between seven and nine o’clock pm. They used to only have twelve hours back then. I don’t want to just say ‘eight’, because telling time back then wasn’t that accurate, so the time could be as early as seven to as late as nine etc. and it was just more accurate to say between seven and nine… XD
2basically saying you haven’t even been given any proper authority so don’t assume unwarranted authority simply because of some pretext.
