The gigantic city gate slowly opened.
In comparison, the few figures beneath the city gate seemed insignificant.
The little girl Nuannuan, and the old woman still smoking a pipe, both watched as Han Zhan walked into the city.
Watching Han Zhan's back, Nuannuan opened her mouth but made no sound.
In her heart, her impression of Han Zhan had once again undergone a tremendous change.
"Tsk, it's really rare to see such a proud young person in the City of Extreme Evil."
The old woman's eyes narrowed into slits, seemingly reminiscing, or perhaps just instinctively closing due to the bright white light ahead.
"Granny, can big brother Han Zhan really succeed in knocking the boundary?" Nuannuan suddenly asked with some concern.
"Heh, I've lived seven hundred years, and in all those years, I've never seen a successful gateknocker. Do you know why there's a vast open space of several kilometers between Fulong City's main city and the city wall?"
The old woman took a deep draw from her pipe.
The glowing embers flared up and quickly died out.
"That's a burial ground left for those with pride."
Hearing this, Nuannuan's little face turned pale, but she clenched her tiny fists and stared nervously ahead.
She didn't want Han Zhan to die.
Because if that happened, she would be left alone to face those eerie shadows.
First checkpoint, in front of the camp.
Seventh-grade Spirit Contract Master, Drunkard Sun Yun, had his hands tucked inside his sleeves.
"We meet again." After seeing the newcomer's identity, a faint smile appeared on Sun Yun's face.
"I wasn't sure whether the information was reliable, but seeing you here, I can be 100% certain, you definitely can't be one of those knights."
The Knights of the Setting Sun would never have the courage to knock the boundary.
"If you give up knocking the boundary now, I can recruit you under my command, as my capable assistant." Sun Yun said earnestly.
In the history of the Anti-Xia Alliance, there has never been such a precedent.
But historically, there has also never been a case of someone who should have appeared at the Anti-Summer Port being mistakenly sent to another port.
Rules are made by people, and rules can also be changed by people.
Sun Yun looked at Han Zhan, waiting for his answer.
Unexpectedly, Han Zhan slightly shook his head.
Sun Yun was a little surprised by Han Zhan's refusal. "Why?"
"Because I want to give it a try."
If it were just for the Knights of the Setting Sun's spy infiltration plan, then the best choice now would be to accept Sun Yun's recruitment and join his command.
But I've never been just working for the Knights of the Setting Sun.
I've helped Zhan Ning escape an assassination once, and helped the Knights of the Setting Sun uncover the secrets inside the Mechanical Sect Mine; I've done enough for them.
So this time, let me be willful.
Han Zhan was originally pondering how to attract Gongyang Jin's attention and meet her after entering the Anti-Xia Alliance.
Right now, this is the best choice.
"You really are proud. But sometimes, pride comes at a cost."
As Sun Yun finished speaking, a massive flood of wine suddenly surged up in the previously empty space beneath their feet.
"Recruiting you was also one way of stalling for time. Young man, this is called all's fair in war."
"Previously at Sun Never Sets Port, time was short, and we didn't really have a chance to have a proper fight. Today, I'll show you the true strength of Drunkard Sun Yun!"
Sun Yun's wine domain has always been a nightmare for his opponents.
Once it takes shape, within the wine domain's scope, it completely becomes Sun Yun's home ground.
But Sun Yun's wine domain also has a fatal weakness, which is that it takes time to go from release to formation.
So when dealing with Drunkard Sun Yun, a swift decision is the best approach.
But now, Sun Yun's wine domain had already formed, and Han Zhan hasn't yet launched an offensive, entirely losing the initiative.
Seeing this, many spectators who had initially held some expectations started shaking their heads.
They thought he might be an exceptionally rare genius, but it turned out he was just a brainless brute.
In front of the first camp.
The wine domain had fully formed, enveloping the heavens and earth within.
Han Zhan and Sun Yun's figures were obscured by the wine mist and gradually became blurred.
"I know your talent is related to disintegration, and intoxicated state is ineffective against you. But you think I only have this one method?"
Sun Yun's voice echoed inside the wine domain.
The wine flask in his hand suddenly turned crimson, and Sun Yun uncorked it, pouring the liquid furiously into his mouth.
As he gulped down the wine, his skin turned visibly red at an incredible speed.
Sun Yun put down the flask and blew toward Han Zhan straight ahead.
— Whoosh!
A large cloud of wine mist spewed from Sun Yun's mouth, and the moment it came into contact with air, it ignited instantly, engulfing everything with extreme heat and scorching flames.
"Burning Wine Technique!"
"Hahaha, more, more!"
Sun Yun acted as if he was drunk, dancing with abandon.
The wine mist turned into flames, quickly engulfing Han Zhan standing in place.
"It's Drunkard Lord's Burning Wine Technique, one of the two states of Divine Drink. In this state, he becomes exceedingly excited, and the wine he drinks turns into flames, burning the whole wine domain!"
This maneuver from Sun Yun was witnessed by many and was no secret in the Anti-Xia Alliance.
Once the wine domain was formed, the power of Sun Yun's Burning Wine Technique was significantly heightened.
At this moment, the temperature inside the wine domain was extremely high, causing the ground's wine to evaporate and vaporize into the air, continuously exacerbating the process!
Just as everyone thought it was all over, a figure emerged unscathed from the engulfing flames.
With one punch, they struck the laughing Sun Yun holding the wine gourd.
Crash!
The sound of the punch colliding with the body was like thunder, deafening.
Sun Yun's laughter abruptly stopped.
He only felt as if his stomach had been trampled by a prehistoric giant beast, his insides roiling tumultuously.
His face turned red, then white, then black, finally bowing his head and vomiting with force.
He puked out all the wine he had just consumed.
"You!" Sun Yun raised his head, forcibly broken out of the Divine Drink state, looked at Han Zhan with disbelief, "You broke my Wine God Body?"
In the Divine Drink state, with burning wine drunk, Sun Yun's physical attributes increased tremendously, his defense akin to a Tier Seven Knight with buffs stacked high.
Yet even so, he was broken through by just one punch from Han Zhan!
Han Zhan remained silent, answering Sun Yun with a high-raised second punch.
In a moment, Sun Yun retreated backward, shaking his wine gourd rapidly, which changed from a deep red to a dark green in the blink of an eye.
Sun Yun took another swig of wine.
A tinge of dark green washed over his face.
Instead of retreating, Sun Yun advanced toward Han Zhan's fist, attempting to engulf him completely.
"Snake Wine Technique!"
