As the voice echoed, two figures gradually emerged in the sky, one large and one small.
Leading them was that quirky Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, Hu Huan, and following him was the resurrected Great Elder Hu An.
When the Fox Clan of the Qingqiu Fox Country saw them appear, they all bowed in salute.
Hu Huan flew over to Xue An with a grin, gave him a once-over, and then exclaimed in amazement.
"I had heard that your cultivation retraining would progress quickly, but this speed is too astonishing. How long has it been since you left, and you’ve already reached half-step Immortal Emperor, almost breaking through?"
Xue An smiled slightly, "Well, geniuses... are just this capricious."
Hu Huan and the others: "...."
Then the little child Hu An couldn’t help but mutter softly, "I originally thought my master was already shameless enough, but I didn’t expect there was someone even more so...."
His words were cut short, as he suddenly noticed Xue An looking at him with a faint smile.
This made him quickly swallow the rest of his words, smile awkwardly, and then hide behind Hu Huan.
But Hu Huan burst out laughing at this moment, then patted Xue An on the shoulder.
"Good, very good. For the first time, I find that your shamelessness reminds me of my own back in the day! Do you have good wine here? I’m parched from the journey!"
"Of course, there’s plenty of fine wine!" Xue An smiled slightly, stepped aside, and then said in a deep voice, "Welcome, everyone, please come in!"
But just as they were about to enter the Sword Palace Sector, laughter suddenly came from afar.
"What’s this? Brother Xue, is there no wine for me?"
As the words fell, a group of people rapidly appeared in front of the crowd.
Leading them was an elder in a robe, with hair tied in a bun, exuding an air of immortal grace.
Seeing this person, a faint smile appeared on Xue An’s lips.
But before he could speak, Huyue laughed boldly and cursed, "Zhuge old man, you finally decided to show up. I thought you were dead."
Indeed, it was Zhuge Cang.
He smiled broadly, "Rest assured, even if you this fox were dead, I wouldn’t be!"
Saying this, he took a step forward and saluted Hu Huan.
"Greetings, Ancestral Fox!"
Hu Huan waved his hand, "You’re too polite!"
Meanwhile, Zhuge Banzang, Zhuge Xuanqing, and Wei Rulan led the Zhuge family disciples in bowing together.
"Greetings, Mr. Xue and esteemed Lords!"
Their voices resonated in all directions.
Even Huyue couldn’t help but be moved, "Wow, Zhuge old man, you’ve brought out all your family’s resources."
Zhuge Cang smiled slightly, "In light of the impending catastrophe, it’s our Zhuge family’s duty!"
In fact, even before receiving Xue An’s notice, Zhuge Cang had started making preparations.
He had long sensed a formidable force lurking in the fog, eyeing the Multiverse.
This calamity was no small matter, so Zhuge Cang had started preparing early.
When Xue An’s notice arrived, Zhuge Cang immediately led all the experts of the Zhuge family to the Sword Palace Sector.
Hu Huan chuckled, "How’s the taste, my good disciple?"
Hu An almost burst into tears; he, who naturally liked cleanliness, rarely touched meat, even when hungry, he would just eat some Spirit Fruit. Eating such a large piece of meat today was his first.
The others at the banquet could only stifle their laughter at Hu An’s look of grievance.
Even Xue An couldn’t help but smile faintly.
At this moment, Hu Huan turned his head, holding a wine cup with a smile, "Brother Xue, I heard your drinking capacity is good, how about we have a few drinks?"
Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly, "Oh? Are you sure you want to drink with me?"
"Of course I’m sure. I, Hu Huan, am a dignified Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, possessing an Ancient Bloodline. I don’t believe I can’t drink more than a human like you!" Hu Huan said defiantly.
Xue An’s mouth slowly curved into a meaningful smile.
"Since you say so, I’ll drink with you, but let me remind you, no getting drunk or causing a scene."
Hu Huan snorted, "What a joke, I’m the great Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, as if I’d get drunk! Much less cause a scene!"
Saying this, he raised his cup to drink.
Xue An, however, gestured to stop him, "Wait!"
"Huh? What’s the matter? Chickening out?" Hu Huan asked with a grin.
"Not at all, I just think drinking cup by cup is too slow."
Hu Huan was slightly taken aback, then asked, "So how do you propose we drink?"
Xue An’s eyes turned cold, he said calmly, "How about... with this?"
