This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered
Chapter 80: The Trio of Idiots

Chapter 80: Chapter 80: The Trio of Idiots

"Hiss, that’s some fragrant wine!" At a table not far from Liang Yi and the others, a burly, fierce-looking bald man sniffed the air.

He Zhiqing had already tried to control the spread of the wine’s fragrance, not wanting to attract too much attention. But there was no helping it, Li Yunqi was known as a notorious drunkard in Guanglong Temple, with an unusually keen sense of smell for wine, which could be considered a unique talent.

"Hey! What wine is that?" Li Yunqi patted his companion, who was busy eating, and pointed at the Lonely Mountain Wine in front of Liang Yi and the others.

"Uh... I dunno, boss!" Lackey Number One, who was eagerly eating, glanced in the direction Li Yunqi was pointing and mumbled indistinctly with his mouth full.

"No way, I must try such good wine!" Li Yunqi, enticed by the faint fragrance of the wine, felt an itch in his heart, as if teased by a shy young maiden.

"Waiter!"

"Ah, what can I do for you, sir?" Beitang Hao fully embraced his role as the waiter, showing no trace of the Beitang family’s second young master.

"That jug of wine, get me one!" Li Yunqi touched his shiny bald head and pointed at the Lonely Mountain Wine near Liang Yi.

"Sorry, sir, that wine is only served to the owner’s acquaintances and is not for sale. However, we do have plenty of other fine wines. Would you like me to bring you a jug?" Beitang Hao explained with a polite smile, recognizing what Li Yunqi was referring to.

"Fart your grandpa’s farts! What crap rule is that! Hurry up and serve the wine!" Li Yunqi slammed his hand on the table, startling two bald companions who were engrossed in their meal.

But upon grasping the situation, they too showed fierce expressions, and Lackey Number One shouted loudly, "Are you deaf? Hurry up and serve my boss some wine! Or do you want us to tear down your tavern?"

"Yeah! My boss is the Chief Disciple of Guanglong Temple! Be careful, or you won’t be able to handle the consequences!" This was Lackey Number Two.

"Really sorry, sir, we’ve already run out of that wine." Beitang Hao’s smile remained, not the type of pampered young master who can’t stand a bit of foul language. Besides, this situation was also a test of one’s mental state, the very purpose of the bustling mortal world.

"Out of stock? Fine! Brat! I’ll get it myself!" Li Yunqi slapped the table and stood up, heading straight for Liang Yi and his group with his lackeys.

Beitang Hao watched Li Yunqi’s back with a mocking smile, making no attempt to stop him.

He had just recalled who everyone at that table was. His sister’s best friend, Yu Gejing, Chief He Zhiqing of the Complete Heaven Sect, and the other two he hadn’t seen before, but he guessed they were probably disciples of Dovergent from the Taoist Sect.

"Guanglong Temple? A second-rate force dares to be so arrogant? Peace has lasted for too long." Beitang Hao didn’t bother with that group courting death, with so many customers in the lobby, he had no time to be idle!

At this moment, Li Yunqi had already led his men to Liang Yi’s table. Looking at the several young faces, he didn’t recognize any of them and assumed they must be some mediocre, unknown force trying their luck.

"Boss! Boss! Look at those two chicks!" Lackey Number One urgently grabbed Li Yunqi’s arm, pointing at Su Youyi and Yu Gejing.

Li Yunqi had only glanced over earlier and hadn’t taken a good look at them. Now, looking directly, he was awestruck, shaking to his core.

"Woah, these two chicks are really damn pretty!" Li Yunqi’s body went weak at the sight of Yu Gejing’s face, and softened even more upon seeing Su Youyi.

He Zhiqing and Liang Yi exchanged glances, both understanding the message in each other’s eyes:

"Where did this idiot come from?"

Yu Gejing and Su Youyi didn’t even lift their heads, continuing to whisper to each other with quiet laughter.

"I’ve decided, I want the wine! And these two chicks! Name your price!" Li Yunqi’s arrogance flared, and while he said they should name a price, his hand was already reaching for the Lonely Mountain Wine on the table.

Just as Li Yunqi was about to forcefully grab the jug, he found he couldn’t move it an inch. Looking closely, he saw a hand pressed on top of the jug. Following the arm upward, it turned out to belong to the youngest of the two men.

"Brat, don’t think you’re something special just because you’re handsome! Let go quickly! Or I’ll chop off your hand!"

Liang Yi’s full charm value made those without malice towards him friendlier, but it had no effect on those who already harbored evil intentions, or it might even have the opposite effect.

Su Youyi lifted her head, a murderous glare landing on Li Yunqi. Threatening her senior brother in front of her? Was he emboldened by the courage of a Demon King?

Li Yunqi shivered, looking around without finding the source of the chill. The surroundings were filled with diners enjoying the spectacle, so he didn’t pay it any heed.

Su Youyi was just waiting for a sign from her senior brother to turn this eyesore before her into ashes.

But Liang Yi gestured for her not to make a move, leaving everything to them.

He Zhiqing glanced at him,

"Who will handle it?"

"You go ahead. I don’t think it’s quite right for me to bully a few Second Realm little Cultivators."

"Then..."

Before their eye contact had ended, Li Yunqi, with his audacious and lust-driven audacity, had already reached out his paw towards Yu Gejing, who was closest to him.

Just as he was about to touch her shoulder, an invisible and formidable force came from the Void, striking directly at the lower abdomen of all three men.

"Boom!!"

The trio of idiots were sent flying out of the main hall, through the front doors, vomiting blood, and landing in the river within the city, staining the waters red!

"You want to touch her!?"

The always calm He Zhiqing now had a cold face, and with a light wave of his hand, countless stars flashed from the Void behind him and shot out.

"The Complete Heaven Sect’s Luiguang Chen Silk Calamity!!"

"It’s the Complete Heaven Sect’s Chief He Zhiqing!"

"My god! Having a meal and getting to see He Zhiqing, good gracious!"

·····

Some of the more knowledgeable patrons shouted in surprise.

The starlines wrapped around the severely injured trio in the river, suspending them in mid-air. The fact that the three idiots didn’t die was entirely because He Zhiqing showed mercy; even so, they were exhaling far more than they were inhaling.

"Who dares to fight in the city!"

A furious shout arose from the shadows, and a figure shot out from them towards He Zhiqing, apparently trying to force him to release the men first.

"Government officer, brother, don’t be in such a rush to act."

Liang Yi, with a smile on his face, had at some unknown point already stepped in front of the Mystic Bureau’s Shadow Guard, palm to palm.

"Bang!!"

To the shock of the bystanders, that leisurely Second Realm youth actually managed to repel the Third Realm Shadow Guard!

"Who are you? Daring to obstruct the official business of the Mystic Bureau!?"

The unknown Shadow Guard had a grave expression as he shouted towards Liang Yi. He had also realized that this young man in front of him might not be simple.

"Taoist Sect’s Liang Yi! Complete Heaven Sect’s He Zhiqing! Is that qualified enough?"

Liang Yi couldn’t be bothered to take action; he simply pointed at himself and then at He Zhiqing, who was still figuring out how to deal with the trio of idiots.

Don’t think it was easy for him; after all, he had crossed a major Realm with that strike, rebounding so much that it cost him a full 10 drops of blood and required a whole breath’s time to recuperate.

"Taoist Sect! The one where the Banished Immortal resides!"

"It’s actually a disciple of the Banished Immortal! Wasn’t it rumored that the Banished Immortal’s greatest disciple couldn’t cultivate?"

"Mom, I’ve made it, having a meal and actually seeing the Complete Heaven Sect’s Chief and the esteemed disciple of the Banished Immortal!"

·····

Liang Yi’s words ignited the crowd of onlookers.
