Chapter 1232: Drinking Causes Trouble

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Zhang Ruochen had always had his nerves pulled taut. It was very rare for him to be able to lower all guard and sleep comfortably.

Drinking the Dragon Fire Wine with the Crazy Alcoholic yesterday was his first time getting drunk. He slept, losing track of time. When he woke up in the morning, he actually had no clue what he’d done.

The moment he woke up, he took quite a hit to his mind.

He was actually naked with Ao Xinyan in the same bed, and they were hugging each other. Ao Xinyan’s dress was in a mess. Large patches of her snowy-white chest, stomach, and thighs were exposed. There were also red fingerprints as if she’d been in battle.

There was a strawberry-like mark on her slender neck.

What is this? What did she do to herself? Why did she come into my bed?

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to be responsible for this. He wanted to escape before Ao Xinyan woke up.

However, his head was extremely dizzy and his limbs were all weak. He couldn’t gather any strength. He struggled for a long while but couldn’t climb out of bed.

“Hmm…”

Ao Xinyan’s lashes fluttered and she opened her eyes. She was a bit dazed. Then pain registered from some places on her body. Her eyes flashed.

There was a naked man sleeping beside her. One could figure out what had happened even without guessing.

A scream escaped from her mouth.

Ao Xinyan was furious and tears flowed out of her eyes. Her purity had been tainted after she lost consciousness.

How would she face Zhang Ruochen from now on?

Could she still face him?

Thinking of this, Ao Xinyan grew even more furious. Anger surged out of her, causing her to lose all reason.

Who in the Divine Dragon and Half Human Clan dared to do this to her? She couldn’t resolve her hatred without killing him!

She flipped over. Using her finger, she guided a blue saintly sword out of her forehead and cut down on the man on the bed.

Seeing the man’s face clearly, she froze. The flying saintly sword also froze in mid-air.

“Group Leader…” Ao Xinyan said. “Zhang Ruochen…you… How can it be you?”

Zhang Ruochen was exhausted. “Ao Xinyan, what are you doing? Why did you run into my room and lay in my bed? Why do you have so many injuries on your body? What did you do?”

“This is my room!” Ao Xinyan was completely done.

“Your room?” Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked around. He slapped his forehead. Understanding the general situation, he cried out inside, Oh no!

Ao Xinyan wasn’t a regular woman. She was the princess of the Divine Dragon and Half Human Clan. She was the future heir of the clan.

It was great luck that he was still alive after this happened.

To Ao Xinyan, it looked like Zhang Ruochen was just pretending to be stupid. Not only did he want to avoid responsibility, he also wanted to blame her.

How could he be like this?

Ao Xinyan bit her lips. “Why did you break into my room last night? What did you do to me?”

“I don’t know.”

“How can you not know?”

“I really don’t know…” Zhang Ruochen thought hard. “Oh, I remember! I drank with the Crazy Alcoholic last night. I drank a lot and then I wanted to find a place to rest. I was very drunk and lost consciousness after lying down. I don’t think…I did anything.”

Ao Xinyan felt the pain coming from her chest and looked at the red marks on her arm, thighs, and waist. How could he not have done anything?

He was lying straight through his teeth.

“If you continue insisting that you didn’t do anything, we’ll die together today.”

Ao Xinyan’s eyes turned red as she grasped her sword. Her emotions were unstable.

She liked Zhang Ruochen, but she couldn’t bear how irresponsible he was. He’d done everything, but he just wouldn’t admit it.

Seeing the marks on Ao Xinyan’s body, Zhang Ruochen almost broke down inside. Even he suspected that he’d done something last night when he was drunk.

Drinking caused problems.

“Calm down. Let me try to remember.”

Zhang Ruochen really was worried that Ao Xinyan’s sword would cut down. With his current state, he might not be able to block it. While thinking, he circulated his Holy Qi to dissolve the alcohol.

Outside, a servant’s voice sounded. “Princess, the Young Clan Leader sent someone to ask about Lord Zhang. He wishes to speak to Lord Zhang alone.”

“I know,” Ao Xinyan said coldly. “Leave now.”

The servant was a bit terrified. The princess was usually very friendly. How come she was so angry today?

The servant didn’t dare to ask and retreated hurriedly.

A while later, Zhang Ruochen had dissolved most of the alcohol. He recovered some of his strength and he stood up. He took a robe out of the spatial ring to wear.

This entire time, Ao Xinyan stood on the side without feeling any shame. Her sword was still pointed at Zhang Ruochen.

“Do you remember or not?”

Zhang Ruochen had a thoughtful expression. Meeting her eyes, he said, “I think that this is a misunderstanding. I couldn’t have done anything in my state at that time!”

“In other words, you don’t plan on admitting or taking responsibility for this.”

“You probably saw how I was too weak to even climb out of bed,” Zhang Ruochen continued to explain. “How could I have done anything?”

Ao Xinyan was heartbroken. Clenching her jaw, she stabbed at Zhang Ruochen’s chest. “Then let’s die together!”

Whoosh!

Zhang Ruochen stood in place without moving, but dozens of Sword Qi beams rushed out of him. They formed a shield and stopped Ao Xinyan’s saintly sword.

Seeing that she couldn’t kill Zhang Ruochen, Ao Xinyan threw down her sword. She crouched on the ground and tears flowed out of her eyes. She started sobbing.

Zhang Ruochen was the type to be moved by emotions. Seeing Ao Xinyan like this, he felt bad.

The door opened with a bang.

The Crazy Alcoholic rushed in, cackling. “Zhang Ruochen, let’s continue drinking… Hey…what happened here?”

Blackie also rushed in. It jumped and landed on the bed. Its round cat eyes looked in all directions.

“Zhang Ruochen, no wonder you left halfway through. You came to have fun with Princess Yan. I’m quite impressed by you.”

The Crazy Alcoholic grew serious. “Zhang Ruochen, how can you make a girl cry? Did you have drunk sex and not want to take responsibility?”

“No way. I have no clue what happened last night.” Zhang Ruochen thought that the Crazy Alcoholic and Blackie’s appearance made things even messier.

The Crazy Alcoholic was more serious than he’d ever been. “So it’s drunken sex. Zhang Ruochen, if you don’t treat her well, then that means you have bad drinking manners. I will end things with you.”

Zhang Ruochen still felt innocent, but the Crazy Alcoholic’s words shocked him awake. Perhaps he didn’t know what had happened, but this was a huge matter to Ao Xinyan.

Merely the fingerprints on her body proved that he wasn’t completely innocent.

“In the future, I’ll end things first if you make me drink with you again.”

Zhang Ruochen glared at the Crazy Alcoholic. Then he walked over to Ao Xinyan and murmured some things to her.

Gradually, Ao Xinyan pressed her lips together and stopped crying. She looked up and said, “Really?”

“Since I said it,” Zhang Ruochen said gently, “I’ll definitely keep my word.”

Zhang Ruochen always tried to stay away from girls that he shouldn’t be involved with. However, when he ran into situations like this, he had to give an explanation.

After getting Zhang Ruochen’s promise, Ao Xinyan recovered quickly. She even looked proud.

She wasn’t a three-year-old kid. After her emotions stabilized, she checked her body. She obviously knew that Zhang Ruochen hadn’t actually done anything.

However, he’d indeed taken actions that were beyond that of a friend and had damaged her purity. He had to take some responsibility.

Thankfully, it was Zhang Ruochen. If it was any other man, Ao Xinyan would rip him to shreds no matter what he said.

“Let’s go! We’ll go to Yin Yang Sea now.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to meet that Young Clan Leader. After all, he’d slept with Ao Jing’s daughter last night. It would be awkward to meet him now.

“Wait, give me a spatial treasure first,” the Crazy Alcoholic said.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t stingy. He took out a spatial ring and handed it over. After getting it, the Crazy Alcoholic played with it carefully and then flipped in happiness. Then he disappeared to some unknown place.

Ao Xinyan packed up simply. Then she led Zhang Ruochen and Blackie to the wormhole that reached the Yin Yang Sea.

Along the way, Blackie asked Zhang Ruochen softly, “What did you say to her? How come she suddenly stopped crying and instead grew happy?”

“She was happy?” Zhang Ruochen had been dissolving the alcohol within and didn’t notice other things.

“Didn’t you see how overjoyed she looked?” Blackie asked.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at Ao Xinyan’s backside. “I only promised to do something for her.”

“Anything?”

“Yes.”

Blackie sighed. “No wonder she’s so happy. You really dug yourself a trap this time. Don’t drink with the Crazy Alcoholic again. You might cause more trouble.”

“I know.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded, feeling this deeply.

The wormhole wasn’t in Divine Dream Marsh. Instead, it was in a vast and boundless ancient forest. It wasn’t far from Divine Dream Marsh though and was very hidden. Other than the upper level of the Divine Dragon and Half Human Clan, few people knew its specific location.

Just as Zhang Ruochen, Ao Xinyan, and Blackie entered the forest, approaching the wormhole, the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and a group of savage beasts finally entered Divine Dream Marsh.
