Returning to the small tavern, the plump shopkeeper was already inside, warming the wine, waiting for him.
Qin Yi was not polite, sitting directly across from him and said, “Now it’s your turn to treat me.”
The shopkeeper, wary, covered the wine pot, “I’m here to help you understand, shouldn’t you be the one treating me more?”
Qin Yi scoffed, “Clearly, you’re the one who needs my help. It’s enough that I’m not asking you for money.”
The shopkeeper glanced at him, unwillingly pouring a glass of wine, “I’ve waited half a year, even the king has changed three times, yet all I got was a mere Initial Stage cultivator of the Fourth Layer of Phoenix Initiation… and you dare say I’m asking for your help…”
“Let’s just talk about what needs to be done and stop bringing up the changing kings!” Qin Yi almost splashed wine all over him. “Besides, is the Fourth Layer of Phoenix Initiation really that weak? Am I supposed to care about a rundown town and a broken well?”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t… You’re at least a helper,” the shopkeeper smiled apologetically, serving him a piece of meat.
