The Zohan people had direct personalities and fiery tempers. Fighting with swords for a minor disagreement was commonly seen. Yet how could the common people fight on a matter between other dynasties? This kind of conflict disappeared when tempers cooled. No one took them seriously. It would still be as usual.

Yuuma did the same thing he did everyday. When he had free time, he would roam around Vahaya, and then cultivate at night before opening the shop in the early morning.

The weather turned colder. Yuuma knew that fall passed quickly in Vahaya. As the frost on the doors thickened in the mornings, one could count on the fingers for when the first snows would arrive.

Just after morning, Yuuma finished eating a bowl of soup-noodles and intestine. He washed the bowl that only he used. A group of students dressed in light robes walked out of an alleyway as they chatted and laughed.

Looking at the student’s robe patterns, Yuuma’s eyes lit up.

He raised his head and looked at the sky above the trees already void of their leaves. He lamented mentally, "It really has come?"

The sword was the primary weapon of the Zohan Dynasty cultivators.

The territories of the Zohan Dynasty had been conquered by the cultivators slicing their way through the years of war.

After the Han Sword Devo's disappeared, the Zohan Dynasty’s Sword Mountain Sect and the  Sword spirit Sect were unanimously the strongest sword cultivating sects in the world.

The two sword sects were very strict in how they accepted and taught their disciples rough. They would open be open on some scheduled days to accepting students and let their disciples leave the mountains. If disciples could not cultivate to a certain realm, they could only stay in the sect their entire lives to avoid being killed by others with a blow when they left the mountain. That would stain the reputation of the two sword sects.

Other than these two sects, there were hundreds of famed sword schools in Vahaya. With Sword Mountain Sect and  Sword Spirit Sect as examples, these cultivating places naturally were strict on their disciples. Most cultivation places only let their disciples freely travel outside when they had third realm cultivation or higher.

Those students, who were far from third realm, were only allowed to roam and play outside the school on rare holidays.

This group of students who appeared like birds flying out of the nest had different patterns on their robes and different swords. They clearly belonged to different sword schools. However, they were good friends so they were together.

Among these students, several students all had cloud patterns on their plain robes. Yuuma’s gaze flickered around those cloud patterns.

People that could join the sword schools were the best young geniuses of Vahaya. The ones that could stay in the end were certain to become cultivators. Also, those that were so joyful and at ease on a school holiday naturally were the best of the schools. The students who did not cultivate and advance quickly would not dare to relax even on holidays. They would be working furiously in order to get ahead.

The person walking at the front of the group was a youth with stern features and walked with a predatory lean. This was the fifth young master of Lin City Gin, Han-Gin.

The Lim City Gin Establishment was a major family from Yangdong one in the previous dynasty and had produced many great generals who were ennobled with a thousand households. They could be considered to have a great foundation, and they had not weakened like many other families after the new policies in the first year of Zonaya.

This generation of Gin Establishment members were all very accomplished. Other than tenth young master who was ill from childhood and was unable to cultivate, all other members joined different cultivation places.

This Han-Gin cultivated in Tree Sword Academy. Among the students of similar age, he did not have a match.

There was also a youth dressed in plain  robes and a young girl dressed in scarlet satin robes who also had extraordinary backgrounds.

That youth dressed in plain robes looked only about fourteen or so. His figure was mid sized. While his features were young, they were filled with pride, and he also had cloud patterns on his sleeves. This youth was Wenzy Zohan. The Wen Family was a tycoon from Wenzy two His mother was from a prestigious family of Zohan three from the Kin Dynasty. Before the Zohan and Kin dynasties started fighting, his mother had urged many of her paternal family in Zohan to come to Vahaya and cut their ties with the Kin Dynasty. The Gin Family was able to possess a position in Vahaya because of that unusually farsighted decision.

As to the Scarlet robed young girl, this was Yangdong Shuna. They were new nobility in Vahaya. Her father was a general that was station at Shun Commandery. Shun Commander was the biggest city nearest the Han Dynasty. Usually, generals that were stationed at such places were the Emperor’s most trusted subjects.

While they were talented young people who had good friendships, their family statuses were different. When they talked, the other people were always slightly wary or restrained. Out of worry of offending these three people, they deliberately maintained a certain distance from the trio. Consequently, the space around the three was much bigger than anyone else.

These three did not detect it. At the front, Han-Gin had a smile and spoke eloquently. When he saw the wine Flag up ahead, he turned slightly and see to the young people around him, "This should be the store. I hear that they are illogical in their wine making, terrible, but the female store-owner is beautiful so their business is good. Today, I want to see if the rumors are true."

Zan Weng was young, but grinned when hearing this. He said, "If that is the case, how about you ask your father to first confirm this marriage, take her as a concubine to avoid other people getting there first?"

The surrounding youths laughed. The young girl, Yangdong Shuna, in scarlet  robes, frowned in distaste. Looking at Han-Gin and Zan Weng, she sneered coldly and said, "I fear that if it is the case, Brother Gin’s father will have another concubine in the end."

Han Gin immediately had an awkward expression. His father’s appetites were well known. He already had eleven concubines.

Because it was a rare day for relaxation, these youths were all in good moods. Amidst the laughter, Han Gin, who walked at the front, finally stepped into this nameless wine shop in Commoner Wine Shop.

Yuuma calmly looked at Han Gin who stepped over the doorway.

Han Gin looked around and then at Yuuma who had not come to welcome him. He thought, the environment of the wine shop was the same as the rumors said. He smiled harmoniously, looked at Yuuma and asked, "Young scholar, are you the only person in here?"

Yuuma looked at these talented youths of Vahaya and said directly, "Did you come to drink or to see my aunt?"

Seeing Yuuma react so, these Vahaya youths first stilled, and then realized that the other must have seen this often. Their anticipation immediately rose.

The young looking Zan Weng was the most experienced. He smiled. "So what if we are drinking or wanting to see your young beautiful aunt?"

Yuuma said neutrally, "If you want to drink, follow the rules, come here to pay and find a seat. If you want to see my aunt, not unless all the wine out here has been sold."

"hahaha..This is interesting."

The crowd laughed.

"No wonder business is so good. I hope that this will not be a disappointment."

Zan Weng shook his head and smiled. He casually took out a coin from his robe and threw it onto the table.

The coin landed gently on the table, yet the youths behind Zan Weng were astounded inside.

This was a  knife coin.

"If I am not disappointed, I will reward you with this  knife coin." Zan Weng casually said this, causing the young people around him to feel the indiscernible difference between them and him.

Yangdong Shuna’s brow immediately furrowed deeply. Even though the Zohan Family was one of the wealthiest families from Yangdong, she was still displeased by Wenzy Zohan's conduct.

Even if he could shock this common youth right now, Zan Weng did not consider that most people might may not even use a knife coin in a year.

Those in the right have more support, those in the wrong are alone. Sometimes, it was these accidentally actions that caused people to feel great disparity.

Yet at this time, a calm voice sounded. "If you want wine, get it yourself."

Yangdong Shuna stilled.

She looked dazedly at Yuuma as though she wanted to see something from Yuuma’s face.

Everyone else was shocked.

Zan Weng did not expect this answer. He raised his head and looked in displeasure at Yuuma, saying, "Can we just buy and not drink? One needs to know how to be flexible in business. Can you not move out a few more wine pots?"

Yuuma immediately shouted towards the inner courtyard. Auntie."

Zan Weng stilled at such a swift response.

Han Gin and the others exchanged smiles. They all felt Yuuma was interesting. The curtain that closed off the inner courtyard swayed gently, and Wenzy Zohan came out holding a pot of wine.

All the youths, including Han Gin, Zan Weng, and Yangdong Shuna, felt their hearts jump when they saw Wenzy Zohan for the first time. This was a great shock than seeing the elders of the sword academy display their strength.

They were completely stunned. They did not believe there was such a debasingly beautiful woman in a place like Commoner Wine Shop.

Zang Weng lips opened slightly. He, who usually threw money around, could not speak.

Wenzy Zohan looked at him with very cold eyes. His hands felt icy. However, all he thought about was how beautiful a woman like this would be when she smiled.

doeg. Wenzy Zohan put the pot onto the counter in front of Yuuma.

Han Gin heart jumped as well and he came back.

Everything was as Yuuma had imagined. However, at this time, his expression changed slightly.

The sound of hooves sounded. A carriage was slowly coming from one end of the alley.

While the three scholar watching Wenzy beauty while holding a pot and coldly eyes.
