I Have Infinite Systems In The Immortal World
92 Battle of Wine
Long Ming's lips curled when he heard that. " Is that so? Hmm, But, Why do I feel like Elder Ren is just saying this to trick me into giving you wine?"
" Huuuh? Brat, Do I look that kind of person to you?" Ren Qian's eyes squinted when he heard Long Ming.
Long Ming shrugged. " Well, I don't know. How can I trust a stranger?"
" Haah, Is that so?" Ren Qian snorted. " Believe me or not, I am better than all the old geezers out there."
Long Ming kept slapping his closed paper fan on his palm as a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. " Then, I hope Elder Ren could answer a question of mine."
" Fine, Go ahead."
Long Ming looked at him. " Have you tasted the Blossoming Emotions of Blissful Heaven Temple?"
Ren Qian's expression became thoughtful. " Well, I did."
" How did it taste? It really bubbles up one's emotion, am I right?"
Ren Qian crossed his arms and nodded. " You are right. But there are still some anomalies inside it."
" First, It felt like it was hurriedly brewed. The natural taste of a treasured wine was missing in the Blossoming Emotions." Ren Qian spoke. " Not to mention, It felt like a carefully blended wine."
" Oh, Is that so?" Long Ming looked at home with a calm smile. " Then, Did Elder Ren manage to notice which wine was blended in it?"
" Well, I have drank many wines across my life. Therefore, I can tell what many couldn't tell." Ren Qian grinned. " I feel this is Holy Qilin Imperial Family's Nine Spirit Sky Dew."
" Ah, I see. Is Nine Spirit Dew that rare?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" Well, You can say that. The main ingredient of the Nine Spirit Sky Dew is the drop of spirit water from Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave, the Ten thousand Year old Hidden Snake Flower, and other precious materials. If a Harmonization realm cultivator drinks a jar, he will able to enter in a meditative state and it also has a spiritual healing property."
" But of course, What The Blissful Heaven Temple used is the Three Spirit Dew, which is a much diluted version of Nine Spirit Sky Dew. But I can feel it wasn't pure Three Dew Wine. They must have mixed something in it."
Long Ming laughed and nodded. " Very well, Elder Ren. Please, Taste this wine."
Long Ming took out a jade jar and poured wine into the glass. Suddenly, a mix of light orange and icy blue filled the cup as they mixed like a mixing of fire and ice.
" Eh? This isn't the wine you were drinking. But, I guess this will work too." Ren Qian laughed and took the cup and drank the wine while savoring it.
" Such a blend of fiery hotness and icy coldness. At one moment, I feel like I am standing under the summer sun while at another moment, it's like I am facing a desolate blizzard."
" Not to mention, the dense true qi… The wine is aged over a thousand years old without any special method. This is… definitely a top notch wine."
But then, Old Ren's eyes narrowed and he looked at Long Ming. " I see, You let me taste this wine because of Blissful Heaven Temple. Now I understand… They blended this wine with Three Spirit Dew and made Blossoming Emotions?"
" Elder Ren is wise. I guess I don't have to elaborate much." Long Ming poured him another cup of wine. " This is called the Song of Summer and Winter, a wine of our Four Seasons Valley. But unfortunately, Blissful Heaven Temple took the wine and mixed it with another wine to create a new wine and presented it here."
" Hmhm, I can guess their plan. Since they went first, your Song of Summer and Winter will receive some negative remarks, right?" Ren Qian nodded. " But then, This wine is already a top notch spirit wine. I guess you will do fine."
" I am not worrying about that at all." Long Ming laughed. " Since Elder Ren drank so much wine, I hope you will say something on our behalf if the situation rises."
" Hoho, Are you sure I can help?" Elder Ren rubbed his beard. Long Ming cupped his fist and bowed lightly. " If you do, you will get a surprise wine."
" Hahaha! A surprise wine? Brat, I guess you found my weakness, huh?" Ren Qian turned around.
" Very well, I will see what I can do."
" Goodbye, Elder Ren."
Long Ming raised his head and saw Ren Qian already disappeared. Long Ming sat back in his seat and let out a deep sigh. Although many people didn't notice Ren Qian, with his Heavenly Revelation Eyes and Temporal Fate Simulation Technique, he managed to take a glimpse of the true aura of Ren Qian.
' Damn, to think he is a demonic beast who transformed into a human, a powerhouse even more oppressive than Nine Revolution of Soul Realm.' Long Ming muttered in his heart.
' Hehe, but thanks to that, I manage to secure another supporter.' A cruel light flashed in Long Ming's eyes. ' Blissful Heaven Temple, You love to play games, huh? Now, It's my turn.'
Soon, the disciples of Four Season Valley converged around Long Ming as their turn finally came.
" Senior Brother, I asked many elders. But most of them are thinking that Blossoming Emotions is an original wine. Not to mention, those few who are thinking it's a blended wine can't say what is mixed with our Song of Summer and Winter."
Long Ming heard Luo Yingying and nodded. " It's alright. You have already done enough."
With a smile, he took out many jars from his spatial bracelet. " All of you, listen carefully. There are two types of jars. First, You will serve this jar. And after the first one, you will serve this one."
Luo Yingying and others looked at Long Ming and nodded. " As yous ay, Senior Brother."
" Alright, This is the turn on Four Season Valley."
Everyone look at the stage when they heard about Four Seasons Valley. No matter how much the sect has weakened, the female disciples of Four Seasons Valley already have been an attraction.
" Lo-Look there…"
" So beautiful…"
Long Ming held a wooden vase and walked in the front. Behind him, the female disciples of Four Seasons Valley walked in a row, taking one step at a time. All of their steps were like an invisible rhythm, giving e surreal sensation.
" Who is that young man in the front?"
" Isn't his name Long Ming? He won the calligraphy match against Xu Jian of Six Sword Pavilion."
" So handsome. Such a handsome young man is the disciple of Four Season Valley?"
The female disciples wore four types of dresses, depicting the four seasons. Long Ming stood on the stage and bowed.
" Greetings, Esteemed daoists. I am Long Ming, the True disciple of Four Season Valley."
' What?! He is the True Disciple of Four Season Valley?"
" Impossible! They made a male the True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley?"
The crowd plunged into the discussion when they heard Long Ming. Long Ming's expression didn't change as he spoke again."
" This is my first time attending the wine gathering. I hope all the present elders will pardon my mistakes."
" This time, the Four Seasons Valley has brought more than one wine. I hope everyone present here will feel the hospitality of Four Seasons Valley."
Slapping his paper fan on his palm, Long Ming gave the signal. The disciples of Four Seasons Valley walked and poured wine from wine jars. The wine jar was carefully crafted with patterns of flaming leaves and falling snow.
" This wine…"
" Such a rich scent…"
When the Daoists drank the Song of Summer and Winter, their expressions turned wonderful.
" Ugh, Such heat… I think my whole body is burning up."
" Hot? I think I am going to freeze here. Such coldness."
" What?"
All of them became shocked when they realized the transition between hotness and coolness. The Blissful Heaven Temple's elders and disciples couldn't help but snort when they tasted it.
They looked at each other and nodded. It wasn't long before someone spoke in an audible voice.
" But, Isn't it taste the same as Blossoming Emotions?"
" Indeed, It just increases the intensity of hotness and coldness, that's all."
" Four Season Valley is copying our Blissful Heaven Temple."
All the disciples of Four Season Valley clenched their fist in anger when they heard that. Long Ming's expression was calm when he saw some old geezers already started to speak.
" Indeed, This feels much like the Blossoming Emotions. But the flavor of Blossoming Emotions is much better."
" Maybe Four Season Valley stole the wine recipe of Blissful Heaven Temple?"
Luo Yingying clenched her teeth and spoke. " This wine has been already on sale in Grand Sky City's Eternal Spring Tower. I believe it's Blissful Heaven Temple who is plagiarizing our wine."
Mo Zhu stepped forward when he heard that. " Sister Luo, You can eat anything, but you can't say anything as you wish. On what basis you are accusing us?"
" Beside, When did we plagiarize your wine? We only served our wine, a better wine."
" Can you say people of that than your Grand Sky City knows about this wine?" He spoke. " I mean, you could have stole it beforehand and launch in Grand Sky City."
" You are twisting the logic."
" Is that so?"
Long Ming looked at Mo Zhu and gave a chuckle. " Alright, I hope all of you enjoyed our wine, It's called Song of Summer and Winter."
" Now, I wish to present our second wine."
" Wait!"
Mo Zhu spoke while looking at Long Ming. " It's stated that each sect will give their best wine and not more than one wine. Since you already presented your Song of Summer and Winter, your turn already ended."
Long Ming looked at the elders who were seated on the honorable seats.
" Esteemed Elders, I hope you allow me to serve this second wine. Because both wines are joined. And by tasting both, you will able to feel the flavor of our sect's best wine."
" But rules are rules. We can't change them, can we?" An elder sitting beside Liu An spoke.
" Yeah, Only one type of wine is allowed."
" Hurry up and get down. You guys are stealing wine from Blissful Heaven Temple."
" Yo-You!"
The disciples of Four Seasons Valley became furious. But Long Ming remained calm.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face when he heard an imposing voice echoing.
" Well, If both wines are necessary to make us understand the Four Seasons' Valley's main wine, I believe we should give them a chance."
