I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

Chapter 265.1

Master Painter took a seat next to Lin Beifan.

The other two seats were reserved for the Sword Elder and the Peerless Spear Immortal as if they had been waiting for him to join them.

Master Painter looked at the table filled with delicacies and thought viciously, Since youve taken my most precious flowers, Ill eat my way back to even.

Which dish here is the most expensive ahem, I mean, which one tastes the best?

Master Painter spoke with a hint of embarrassment: Im sorry, Im just a simple man from the countryside, not often do I get to see such a spread of exquisite dishes. I spoke without thinking, please forgive my rudeness!

Lin Beifan laughed and said: Master, youre being too modest! For a veritable immortal like you who has lived nearly 200 years, what havent you seen? What delicacies havent you tasted? Its our honor to have you here!

Your Majesty is too kind, haha! Master Painter laughed proudly.

Although he was used to being flattered by others, being praised by the Emperor of the Great Xia Empire still made him very happy.

However, as for these dishes

Lin Beifan said, pointing to the food on the table with a smile, they are actually quite ordinary. Take this fish, for example, it was just caught from the sea, what youre tasting is its freshness!

Master Painter glanced down and indeed found that the dishes were ordinary, feeling a slight disappointment in his heart.

It seemed he wouldnt be getting his moneys worth tonight.

But I do have a few jars of fine wine on my ship, each worth a fortune and unavailable on the market! Tonight, I shall treat the Master with those fine wines! Lin Beifan said with a smile.

Master Painters eyes lit up, excitedly saying: Excellent, lets drink wine tonight!

Bring them up!

Immediately, someone brought up a jar of wine and poured it for everyone present, filling the air with its fragrance.

Master Painter picked up his cup and eagerly drank it down.

Lin Beifan asked with a smile: Master, how is the wine?

Excellent wine!

Master Painter exclaimed: This wine is rich and sweet, it melts in the throat and instantly warms the entire body, leaving an unforgettable aftertaste! Whats more, theres a subtle hint of tea aroma, it must be the fragrance of Arhat Camellia flowers, I really like it! Haha

If the Master likes it, then please drink more! Lin Beifan instructed someone to refill his cup.

This cup is too small, give me a bigger one, tonight I shall drink to my hearts content! Master Painter declared boldly.

Did you hear that? Bring a bigger bowl immediately, a large one! Lin Beifan ordered.

And so, the cup in front of Master Painter was replaced with a large bowl.

Master Painter was secretly delighted, thinking he would drink them under the table!

In no time at all, he had nearly finished the jar of wine, which was about four or five jin.

Master can really hold his liquor, lets have another! Lin Beifan called out.

Someone immediately brought over another jar.

Master Painter asked curiously: What wine is this?

Lin Beifan replied with a smile: This is Golden Brew, a unique delicacy from the Great Xia palace! The process of making this wine is very complex, and the ingredients are exquisite. Its said to be worth its weight in gold, hence the name!

Master Painter was once again secretly thrilled, another jar of priceless wine.

I must drink it, lets see if I can outdrink you!

Bring the wine, I want to taste this Golden Brew!

Someone opened the lid of the jar and poured out the golden-colored wine.

Master Painter raised his cup and drank it all in one go.

Lin Beifan asked with a smile: Master, how is this wine?

This is also good wine!

Master Painter laughed heartily: This wine is refreshing and invigorating, best enjoyed on a summers day! Moreover, its mixed with a faint aroma of the Mandala Flower, which I am very fond of!

Since you like it, please have some more! Lin Beifan personally poured him another drink.

Master Painter, uncharacteristically modest, said: Your Majesty, please join! And the two fellow Daoists, please drink as well!

Master is too polite! Sword Elder and Peerless Spear Immortal said with a laugh.

In no time at all, the jar of wine was emptied, with most of it having gone into Master Painters belly.

Lin Beifan immediately had the third jar of fine wine brought over, followed by the fourth

The Master Painter was extremely fond of drinking, one cup after another

No, it was one bowl after another, not even caring for the dishes.

After downing seven or eight jars of fine wine, his heart finally settled down a bit.

Youve taken so many of my precious flowers. Its not too much for me to drink a few jars of your fine wine, is it?

At this point, Lin Beifan slapped his forehead, Right, I was so busy drinking that I forgot to ask about the important matter! Master, your visit must be for something urgent! What is it exactly, could you tell me?

The Master Painter glanced at Lin Beifan and then at the two Grandmasters beside him before speaking slowly, Its nothing urgent! I heard from my butler that today you entered my Hundred Flower Garden and picked some flowers?

Lin Beifan nodded, Indeed, thats true! Master, is there a problem?

Sword Elder and Peerless Spear Immortal both looked over.

No problem no problem at all, my servant was ignorant, and I have already reprimanded him on your behalf! the Master Painter said sincerely.

Lin Beifan let out a sigh of relief, That puts me at ease. I was worried you would blame us! Since the Master doesnt mind, well visit again another day, and we hope youll allow us the convenience!

The Master Painter felt a jolt inside.

You actually want to visit again?

If you visit a few more times, all the flowers in my Hundred Flower Garden will be plucked clean!

Visit of course, theres no problem with that, but try not to pick the flowers inside!

Why not? Lin Beifan asked, puzzled.

Because I am a person who pursues beauty! The more beautiful things are, the more I cherish them!

The Master Painter explained, You see, a flower can only bloom in the soil it thrives in, showing its most beautiful side! Once picked, it loses its vitality and beauty!

I see! Master, we truly see eye to eye! Lin Beifan found common ground.

The Master Painter was stunned, Your Majesty, are you also a lover of beauty?

Thats right! I love beautiful people! Lin Beifan said seriously.

Master Painter:

Are we even talking about the same thing?

So, whenever I see beautiful flowers, I cant help but pick them. Its simply a habit, Ive only made a mistake that any man could make, please dont take it to heart, Master! Lin Beifan said apologetically.

(TLN: Habit and mistake that any man could make is maybe a dirty joke about picking flower)

The Master Painters mouth twitched, I dont mind, I just hope youll show some restraint and not pick them all!

Rest assured, Master, Ill definitely leave the roots!

Master Painter:

Watching his Hundred Flower Garden about to suffer again, he became emotionally unsettled.

Do you have any more fine wine here?

Lin Beifan was taken aback, Master, you want to drink more?

The Master Painter smacked his lips as if still savoring the taste, I really love these wine, so I cant help but want to drink more! If Your Majesty doesnt have any, then never mind!

Master, theres plenty! You can drink as much as you want! Lin Beifan called out.

The Master Painter was secretly delighted. His provocation had worked!
