"Bang!!"
The terrifying pressure, like Mount Tai descending, surged forward, impacting the tables next to Gu Rulong, breaking wine jars and dishes instantly.
The aura was frightening!
However, sitting across from them, Nameless and Li Zhexiong seemed unfazed by the overwhelming pressure, remaining calm and composed.
The people present were shocked, realizing these were two monster-level individuals!
Indeed, as the Hidden Dragon Conference approached, more monsters appeared!
"It's just about sharing a table, why go to such lengths?"
At this moment, Nameless noticed that the inn waiter's hesitation, and knowing that the two facing them were formidable, sighed softly and turned to Gu Rulong.
"Hmph." Gu Rulong snorted coldly, saying, "I don't like sharing with strangers! Leave, or face the consequences!"
"Strangers once, familiar twice, once we've drunk, we won't be strangers,"
Suddenly, Li Zhexiong came to his senses, spoke softly, then grabbed the exquisite wine jar from the table, broke the seal with a swift motion, tilted his head, and poured the amber liquid into his mouth.
Those witnessing this scene admired his boldness.
It's one thing to share a table with Gu Rulong, but to drink his wine as well, let's see if Gu Rulong will let this pass.
To the crowd's surprise, neither Gu Rulong nor Lingxiao reacted to Li Zhexiong seizing the wine; instead, their faces bore mockery.
Gu Rulong didn't stop Li Zhexiong from drinking his wine, secretly mocking him for his ignorance.
The Dragon Elephant Sect's wine was not for ordinary people!
This kind of wine was extremely strong and could refine the body, but only those above the Power of the Three Elephants could manage more than a small sip.
Even Lingxiao wouldn't dare drink an entire jar, only daring to drink a few mouthfuls.
This was because his body refinement wasn't strong enough; drinking too much could lead to the body bursting apart!
Now, this person at the Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm dared drink this way, just wait for his body to explode!
However, contrary to Gu Rulong's expectations, Li Zhexiong quickly finished the entire jar of strong wine without showing any signs of bursting.
Lingxiao's expression turned solemn.
Gu Rulong's expression darkened, exclaiming, "Who are you?"
Li Zhexiong put down the wine jar, wiped the wine from his mouth, burped slightly drunkenly, and said, "I am Li Zhexiong, just a nameless swordsman."
"Hmm?!"
Upon hearing 'Nameless Swordsman,' Lingxiao seemed to recall something, his eyes sharpened, a gleam of light burst forth, then a bright sword light swept out, aiming directly at Li Zhexiong's throat!
The intimidating sword light, cold and shining, made those at neighboring tables feel as if their skin was being cut by the scattered Sword Qi.
It's unimaginable how terrifying the Sword Intent felt by Li Zhexiong in the center of the Sword Light must be!
"Clang!"
At a critical moment, Li Zhexiong's drunken eyes suddenly turned hollow, he raised two fingers and caught Lingxiao's Spirit Sword.
"Is there really a need to be so aggressive?"
Li Zhexiong spoke, his tone now cold and emotionless, like a cold wind sweeping through.
"Hmm?! Again!"
Lingxiao saw Li Zhexiong catch his sword, his eyes gleamed with intrigue, he withdrew the Spirit Sword instantly, and attacked once more, targeting Li Zhexiong's heart, eyes, throat, and other vital points!
"Clang! Clang! Clang!!"
Li Zhexiong's fingertips moved rapidly, as if playing a musical instrument, repeatedly blocking Lingxiao's Slaughter Sword!
"Good, good, good..."
Lingxiao praised continuously, his Spirit Sword flickered with light, the killing intent intensified.
As he was about to expand his Domain to duel Li Zhexiong.
"Whoosh!"
An immensely powerful aura suddenly descended into the inn.
With this aura's appearance, the originally outstanding four like Yue in the sky, instantly seemed like candles in the wind, their aura greatly diminished, teetering under the opponent's pressure, unable to resist.
This was the intervention of a Hedao Realm expert from the Dayan Imperial Capital!
The people present instantly realized this.
Indeed, recently there had been several clashes between Heaven's Pride, with experts from the Hedao Realm intervening to suppress them.
Since Li Zhexiong and Lingxiao's fight lasted about a minute, drawing the attention of Hedao Realm experts in the Imperial City, and their intervention was quite normal.
"No more fighting in the Imperial Capital; violators will be expelled from the Imperial City!"
A cold voice echoed in the inn.
Simultaneously, the aura of Li Zhexiong and Lingxiao was suppressed, and they sat back in their original seats.
The place calmed down.
But the owner of the cold voice did not show himself, nor did he speak again, presumably already left.
"Whew..."
Lingxiao, feeling the suppression from the Hedao Realm great power, did not show any dissatisfaction; his emotions stable, he didn't dwell on it but refrained from further action.
After exhaling lightly, he looked at Li Zhexiong, his eyes filled with admiration, "To reach such a level with the Selfless State, truly remarkable, you are worthy of sharing our table."
Li Zhexiong's eyes gradually became unfocused, hearing Lingxiao's words, did not respond, instead took another unopened wine jar, broke the seal, and drank alone.
Seeing this, Gu Rulong frowned slightly, looked at Yue, and spoke, "Is he the one rumored some time ago to be at the Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm, who was besieged by seven experts at the late stage of the Fanxu Realm, yet killed all seven with a single sword?"
Hearing Gu Rulong's words, everyone who had perked up their ears to listen also recalled this event.
Their eyes filled with astonishment.
To think the rumor was true, the person not only came to the Imperial City but engaged with Gu Rulong's friend, seemingly ending in a tie!
Yue chuckled softly at Gu Rulong's words, shaking his head, "It's not him."
With these words, both Gu Rulong and Lingxiao frowned in disappointment.
Those present also felt disappointed.
Yue continued leisurely, "The one who acted that day was me."
Upon hearing this, Gu Rulong's eyes lit up, looking directly at Yue and asked, "It's you?"
"Yes, it's me." Yue nodded and admitted, "If it were my brother who acted, it wouldn't be possible for them to encircle him. However, my skills have improved since then, and if it were to happen again, I could handle it better!"
"Brother..." Gu Rulong murmured, then looked deeply at Li Zhexiong and Yue, laughed heartily, shoved a wine jar in front of Yue, and said, "Come, drink!"
