Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System - Chapter 271: Asking For Explanation

Han Cai summoned another cup and poured her some spirit coffee.

Lan Yulan took a sip and frowned – the spirit coffee was the most ghastly drink she might have ever had.

Han Cai enjoyed the expression on her face as she struggled to finish the coffee.

Once she was done, he was about to pour her another cup when she stopped him and said, “I have wine, let’s drink that instead.”

Han Cai laughed and replied, “I told you, spirit coffee is an acquired taste.”

She nodded and brought out an ancient-looking wine pot.

“This is a very special wine, the best I’ve ever tasted. I would like to share it with you,” she said.

Han Cai nodded in agreement.

Lan Yulan gracefully extended a beautifully adorned wine flask towards Han Cai, pouring a delicate stream of liquid into two ornate cups. Han Cai realized this was no ordinary wine. As soon as it left the flask, the wine released a captivating aroma that swept across the valley, so potent that even the surrounding flowers seemed to sway towards it, as if intoxicated by its scent.

The aroma was a delightful blend of sweet and tart, with hints of exotic fruits and a subtle undertone of honey. It filled the air, enveloping them in a sensual haze that was both inviting and enthralling.

Accepting the cup from Lan Yulan, Han Cai brought it to his lips and took a small sip. The wine was unlike anything he had ever tasted. Its flavor was a complex layering of notes, each one unfolding gradually, allowing him to savor every nuance.

At first, there was a delicate sweetness, reminiscent of ripe peaches on a sunny afternoon, followed by a tart punch of citrus that danced on his tongue. Then came a subtle warmth, akin to a gentle sunbeam, which slowly spread throughout his body, leaving him feeling both relaxed and energized.

With every sip, the wine seemed to get better. It had a velvety texture, like a soft whisper against his palate, leaving a trace of warmth and a lingering hint of honey that enticed him to taste more. The wine was indeed special, not just for its rich and exquisite flavors, but for the experience it delivered – an unparalleled indulgence that was both satisfying and deeply memorable.

Drinking the wine felt like a journey through a tapestry of delightful tastes, weaving a tale of exotic lands, sun-kissed fruits, and a hint of the mystical. Even though Han Cai wasn’t a wine connoisseur, he knew the wine he just had was extraordinary – a tribute to the artisan’s skill and a testament to the magical realm’s bounty. The taste lingered on his tongue, a tantalizing reminder of an experience that was truly otherworldly.

After Han Cai put down the wine cup, Lan Yulan was about to pour him another one.

But Han Cai stopped her and suggested, “Let us have some snacks with it.”

Lan Yulan nodded. As Han Cai rose, his steps faltered, and he sat back on the cushion, saying, “The wine got to me.”

Lan Yulan nodded and moved closer to him. Her face was only inches away from Han Cai’s. She whispered, “With this kiss, I absolve any karma we have.”

As Lan Yulan moved closer to Han Cai, their faces were merely inches apart. He could feel the warmth radiating from her, and his heart pounded with an intensity he’d never experienced before.

He found himself captivated by her gaze, unable to look away from her mesmerizing eyes.

Then, she leaned in and pressed her lips against his. The world seemed to stand still in that moment. The kiss was gentle, yet it packed an intensity that left him breathless. The sensation was an overwhelming rush of emotions – a delicate mix of surprise, delight, and a deep connection that he couldn’t quite put into words.

He was consumed by her. The fragrance of her hair, the taste of her lips, the warmth of her body against his – everything was magnified, demanding his complete attention. His heart pounded in his chest like a wild drum, matching the rhythm of the emotions coursing through him.

He felt a spark ignite within him, spreading warmth that radiated outwards from his chest. The entire world outside of this moment seemed to blur and fade away. There was only him, Lan Yulan, and the shared sensation of their first kiss.

As they slowly pulled away from each other, he found himself in a daze. His mind was a whirl of thoughts, trying to process the significance of what just happened. His lips still tingled with the residual feel of her kiss, a sweet reminder of the intimate connection they had just shared.

He was losing consciousness slowly, trying to savor the beautiful kiss and the amazing wine. When she kissed him, the whole Mystic Realm shook.

Lan Yulan was surprised at first, but then she realized that her actions had caused changes in the laws of this world, leading to some movement.

Han Cai asked, “Could you tell me who you are?”

Lan Yulan nodded and responded, “Dao Sovereign of Equality.”

Han Cai asked, “Why me?”

Lan Yulan replied, “You have my treasure, don’t you?”

Han Cai asked, “What’s its real name?”

Lan Yulan replied, “You don’t need to know.”

Han Cai responded, “I feel taken advantage of. I deserve an explanation. If I die without one, I am going to hold it against Heaven and the Grand Dao of Equality as I have been mistreated. This is not an equal exchange.”

Lan Yulan agreed, “You gained a kiss from a Sovereign, the Karma is absolved, but you do deserve an explanation.”

She replied honestly, “It was called the Orb of Equal Exchange, a Dao weapon – the highest level weapon in any realm.”

Han Cai asked, “Why give it to me?”

She shook her head and said, “I did not give it to you. It found you.”

Han Cai gave her a confused, blurry look and asked, “What do you mean?”

Lan Yulan explained, “When I was young, I made some mistakes. I was naive and had very upright morals. I wanted to eliminate the suffering from the world and bring about the Dao of Equality in every realm. My main body couldn’t travel to lower realms, so I divided my soul and sent it there.

When I arrived in the lower realms, I was filled with a sense of righteousness, determined to alleviate the suffering of Mortals and Immortals. I moved through many realms and helped many people. When I arrived in this realm, I came across a Transcendent who did not leave this world but reduced his cultivation because he wanted to cultivate the Grand Dao of Life. His name was Qian Lifeng. He told me he would be my follower and would help me. I was naive and believed him.”
