Once he passed through the horned gate, the corners of Ling Zhang's mouth widened into a smile. His ice-cold eyes disappeared and he once again revealed a warm and clear expression.

The indifference on his face slowly faded away, turning back into an exhausted status which looks like a drunken stupor. His footsteps became unsteady and messy.

It was as if he had become a completely different person, unguarded.

I found it! The Ling childe is here! someone shouted from the front.

This voice broke the silence in the corner, and very soon, two people ran over to support Ling Zhang, "Ling childe, where did you go earlier?

Ling Zhang rested the strength of half his body on the person supporting him, and raised his hand to rub his forehead. His tone was filled with the powerlessness and tiredness of a drunk person: "I went to sit in the pavilion over there, and accidentally fell asleep."

If you had caught a cold, our master would definitely skin us alive. Please follow us back to the room to rest and get some warmth. " The servant who supported Ling Zhang said with a terrified tone.

Ling Zhang waved his hands, telling them that it was alright, and in the next moment, he hissed softly, with eyes half open as he frowned, "My head aches."

The servant who supported Ling Zhang kept apologizing and walked toward the Main Hall in a domineering and swift manner while keeping him company.

Along the way, Ling Zhang pretended to rub his forehead, as his eyes quickly scanned his surroundings, which looked very familiar to him.

He had once treated the owner of this place as a friend, visited him often, and also greatly admired the scenery here. However, in the end, the beautiful scenery in front of his eyes had turned into a nightmare, causing him to wake up in the middle of the night with cold sweat dripping down his back.

The two servants walked very quickly, and didn't care if Ling Zhang was feeling uncomfortable because of them, they soon arrived at Main Hall and supported Ling Zhang in.

Once he entered the Main Hall, the strong smell of alcohol and all kinds of mixed dishes made Ling Zhang feel nauseous. A big wine table lied in the center of the hall, and five people were seated around it. One of the empty seats was the one that Ling Zhang had been sitting on earlier.

"Zhang Di, you're finally back. Where did you run off to?" With a careful tone, he came over to support Ling Zhang. He was handsome, which accorded with his proper and polite conduct.

However, the moment they touched each other, Ling Zhang almost could not control his impulse to throw him away. His half-lidded eyes obstructed the coldness and fierceness that was uncontrolled just now.

"Zhang Di?" since he did not get a reply, the man grabbed Ling Zhang's hand tightly, and called out in a low voice.

Ling Zhang shook his head, as though he was too tired to answer.

"Hey, Ling Zhang, your alcohol tolerance is too terrible. You only drank a few cups and you're already so drunk?"

"That's right. You even need Yuan Ling to support you. Not intending to be mean, but you are too lame."

The people at the table ridiculed loudly. If it was before, Ling Zhang would only take it as a mutual damage between friends. He would not think that their ridiculing tone was filled with such malice.

"Stop talking already, Zhang Di has just become an adult and has not gotten drunk before. It's normal for him to be drunk so quickly. Come here Zhang Di, sit down, I will get someone to cook the Decoction for Waking Up Wine for you. After drinking it, you can go to the side room and sleep. "

Ling Zhang was supported to sit down in the empty seat. When he heard the words "Decoction for Waking Up Wine" and "sleep", his hand that was placed under the table tightened into a fist as he desperately suppressed his surging anger and killing intent.

With a light tap, a bowl of black Decoction for Waking Up Wine was placed in front of him, emitting an unpleasant smell.

Ling Zhang raised his eyelids a little and looked at the Decoction for Waking Up Wine, then sanned the people around him again.

"Zhang Di, what's wrong? "Hurry up and drink it all down. You'll be fine after a bit of sleep." The person sitting opposite to him revealed a gentle and handsome smile, and spoke with a doting tone.

The other four persons gazed at Ling Zhang with unclear meanings. Previously, Ling Zhang was unable to see through them, but now, Ling Zhang could easily see through them and see the malicious intention behind their gazes.

Ling Zhang slightly curled the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of ridicule. Then, he slowly lifted the bowl of Decoction for Waking Up Wine, touched the rim of the bowl with his lips, and drank it all down.

Ling Zhang stared at the five people on the table without blinking. It was different from his previous life of being befuddled, this time, he could clearly see them revealing expressions of complacency and relief.

It was disgusting.

"Someone, send Zhang Di to his room to rest."

On the way to the side room, Ling Zhang quietly took out the dark green jade pendant on his neck, and placed it into his mouth. A faint medicinal taste emitted from his mouth, dispelling the quickly approaching sleepiness.

A big show was about to perform, but this time he would not be a fish at the mercy of others. He would decide the one who had the knife.
