The Dominance of the Son-in-Law: My Wealthy and Beautiful Wife

Chapter 1224 1224: The Fragrance of Wine!

"Ugh, I'm exhausted. When will this end?!""Another ten days at least. I just want to have a proper drink and a good sleep. I'm really worn out. I don't understand why the leader is insisting on this Sacrificial Array when we could just inherit the immortal power. We even have to cooperate with the Snake Leader, it's ridiculous."

"Yeah, no kidding. Tomorrow we have to switch shifts and continue the array formation. Ugh!"

"..."

The two members of the Holy Soul Hall were in the front bushes, relieving themselves and complaining.

At that moment.

A sudden cold flash appeared.

Their heads fell to the ground!

Qin Feng appeared behind them, sheathing the Life and Death Blade.

Beside him, Xiao Wu said, "Why did you kill them immediately? Shouldn't we keep them alive for questioning?"

"These two are just minions. We won't get anything valuable from them. We need to question a minor leader at least." Qin Feng turned around and looked at a temporarily constructed wooden loft not far away.

Inside the loft.

Seven or eight people were having a meal.

Most were like those two, eating while complaining about their fatigue.

"Boss, will it really be over in ten days? I'm about to go insane, stuck here all this time, without a drop of alcohol."

Just as he finished complaining, a guy with a cheeky face and scruffy beard smacked him on the back of the head, angrily saying, "Could you stop mentioning alcohol? Aren't you afraid the boss will twist off your head?"

Their leader appeared very serious and fierce as his eyes glowered, almost ready to kill him.

Everyone knew he was the most fond of drinking amongst them.

He hadn't touched a drink in a month and was nearly going mad. He managed barely each day, avoiding thoughts of alcohol, and now someone brought it up...

"Everyone! Do not ruin the leader's plan. You must hold the line! From now on, anyone who mentions alcohol will have his head twisted off!!"

The leader said gloomily.

"..."

Everyone bowed their heads in silence.

Unexpectedly.

At that moment, a fragrance of wine wafted in, intoxicating and incredibly alluring.

All of them in the room were drooling.

But no one dared to say the word "wine."

"The wine's here!!!"

Qin Feng walked in, carrying several jars of Drunk Living and Dreaming Death Wine.

It really was wine!!

Everyone's eyes widened, staring intently at the wine jars in Qin Feng's hands, not daring to look away, fearing the wine would vanish if they blinked.

"Friends, this is a reward from above, so don't hold back."

Qin Feng said with a smile.

"And you are??"

Everyone looked at him.

Perhaps it was because of the wine that made people feel a kinship with this unfamiliar face. Their first reaction was not suspicion of an outsider invasion.

"I'm under the Ninth Elder." Qin Feng casually gave a name and said with a smile, "The leaders know you've been working hard lately, so they specially sent this treasured wine for everyone. No worries, everyone in the Holy Soul Hall gets some!"

After all, the Holy Soul Hall has over twenty thousand people.

It's normal they wouldn't recognize him.

"Really??"

One person excitedly drooled, eyes full of anticipation.

The leader frowned, saying, "Is it true? Why haven't I received such notice?"

"Isn't that why they sent me to notify you?"

Qin Feng spoke, then with a "pop," opened the lid.

Instantly.

The aroma of wine filled the entire room.

Everyone urgently swallowed, eyes widening like starving wolves, eagerly looking at their leader, just waiting for his command.

The leader, now also desperate with thirst.

But he was responsible for this area and couldn't be careless.

Also, he had no impression of Qin Feng at all; his clothes were not the Holy Soul Hall's uniform. Afraid it might be genuine and offending him would mean no alcohol, he refrained from brandishing a knife to question Qin Feng's identity.

"Alright, let's confirm with the leaders first."

He took out a Beast Shell and summoned a communication bird, writing a few lines, letting the bird fly away.

Sects in the Hidden World mainly use Spiritual Treasures, Magic Artifacts, and Spirit Birds for communication.

This communication bird is the most commonly used method, quick and low-cost, unlike some communication Magic Treasures that require Spiritual Power.

And it's so swift that unless one is a Ninth Grade Grandmaster, others would find it difficult to take it down, making it relatively safe.

The communication bird flew away.

The leader looked up at Qin Feng, seeing he was still calm and unruffled, believing him somewhat.

What he didn't know.

The communication bird was caught by Xiao Wu soon after it flew away.

Xiao Wu's cultivation isn't high, but her Qinggong and movement techniques are among the top tier.

Moments passed.

The communication bird hadn't returned yet. Everyone was growing impatient.

Qin Feng didn't rush, sat down, tilted back his head, sipped a drink, and laughed, "No hurry, the bird will surely bring news soon. You just wait; I'll have a drink first."

He then took another swig.

The people nervously swallowed.

There was no choice.

This wine was the revered Drunk Living and Dreaming Death Wine even for the Old Drunkard.

Since Dong Haimei's distillery began producing it, Qin Feng had packed many into his Nayu Ring space.

Now encountering this group of drunkards, it was time to use them.

"Boss..."

Many watched Qin Feng enjoy his drink, hearts bleeding, afraid he'd finish it all, anxiously looking at the leader, "Why hasn't the bird come back yet..."

"Could it be the heads above are too drunk to answer?"

"That's right, why don't... we drink first?"

"..."

The leader, unable to resist any longer, biting his lip, said, "Alright! You can drink a bit, but until the bird returns, not too much, understand?"

"Understood!!"

The crowd shouted in unison, then quickly grabbed a jar each and started drinking.

"Just a little sip!!"

The leader feared they'd drink too much and cause trouble, hurriedly ordering them.

Unexpectedly.

After just a small sip, his body shivered intuitively, as if flames erupted inside, with only two words in his mind—good wine!!!

Immediately after.

He forgot about waiting for the bird, forgot about potential trouble, only the word "bliss" remained in his mind!

Glug, glug!

One jar down, onto the second, third...

Before long.

The place was filled with people sprawled about, each muttering, "Good wine, it's the best I've had in my life... I feel like crying. Why was I given such good wine, what if it's only rewarded this once and I never taste it again, what agony..."

Qin Feng clicked his tongue a few times and then sat beside the leader.

The leader was now completely drunk, utterly unconscious, only able to foolishly smile.

"Brother, could I ask you a few questions?" Qin Feng held a bowl of wine and smiled.

"Of course... After all, you brought us such good wine, we're like brothers, ask anything! I'll drink, you do as you please!"

The leader was about to drink another bowl but was stopped by Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was worried he'd get too drunk to answer anything.

"Speaking of which, what is this Sacrificial Array exactly?"

He asked.
