Mu Rong Xin Nuo then went to visit the Wine Sage with the wine.
As for the vat of Blazing Yang Wine, it was discovered later that it had contained the rare Drunk Celestial.
The Drunk Celestial, as its name proposes, would cause even a celestial to become drunk. A small amount of it was enough to cause an ordinary person to die from being drunk.
The Drunk Celestial was colorless and could also enhance the fragrance of wine when mixed in it.
Causing it to become unnoticeable when added into the Blazing Yang Wine.
How could there be such a coincidence? Madam Ru was locked up and was denied visits from outsiders, so who allowed Mu Rong Xin Nuo to visit?
Why did Madam Ru ask Mu Rong Xin Nuo to look for Wine Sage and not someone else?
And even happened to mix Drunk Celestial inside a good wine?
Such coincidence only proves that it was premeditated!
Either the Holy Court or the Ji Mo Clan has someone controlling everything.
Can it be the Master that Bai Li Zi Xi mentioned? The Devil Eye?
As this matter involved Ji Mo Ya’s biological mother, the Wine Sage did not want to act rashly. Moreover, to avoid startling the Devil Eye, it was better to investigate the matter incognito.
Ji Mo Ya was expressionless after listening to the details, but his heart was in turmoil.
He soon nodded: “This junior will return to inquire as well as investigate if anyone in the Ji Mo Clan is collaborating with outsiders.”
The Wine Sage was appreciative, the reason he brought it up to Ji Mo Ya and not to Ji Mo Wu Chang or Ji Mo Cai, was because this kid could always keep his mind clear and maintain an impartial stance.
Ji Mo Ya was nurtured by both the Ji Mo Clan and Holy Court; thus, he could better maintain a neutral position and avoid making the Ji Mo Clan feel that the Holy Court was meddling in their clan affairs.
This made Wine Sage admire Ji Mo Ya even more; although he had unknowingly caused trouble for Ji Mo Ya, Ji Mo Ya did not utter a word of complaint and did not even display a poor attitude when he met the Wine Sage. Such a magnanimous attitude could only be displayed by a good man!
In a moment of delight, the Wine Sage took out a precious treasure he found in a hidden realm a few hundred years ago, the Purple Sesame Horse. He handed it to Ji Mo Ya while enduring his aching heart: “This box contained the Purple Sesame Horse that this sage had gotten a few hundred years ago. It was formed from a ten-thousand-year-old Purple Sesame that took the shape of a horse. If it is given another thousand years, it will likely become a living spirit with a will and move freely. I have caused you to suffer grievances, to the lass from Bai Li Clan and the child of both of you. Sigh…”
The Wine Sage turned and left, worried that he would regret and take back the Purple Sesame Horse.
Ji Mo Ya looked at the jade box in his hands before opening a gap to peek inside. A whiff of fragrance flew out, smelling it immediately caused him to feel refreshed.
This is a good item!
Ji Mo Ya kept the box and headed for Sage Cai’s place.
Cockaigne Courtyard.
Sage Cai looked at the jade box that Ji Mo Ya gave him with spirited eyes: “That old drunk had such a good treasure? He really knows how to hide the good stuff, this sage did not even know that he had this! It is likely his most treasured item, at least he was tactful!”
Sage Cai opened the box as he spoke, a purple crystal gem the size of the palm was seen, the gem was shaped like a horse, looking extremely life-like as it lay within the box.
The moment the box was opened, an indescribable fragrance permeates the entire room.
Sage Cai decisively sliced off the tail of the Purple Sesame Horse and returned the jade box to Ji Mo Ya: “This is good stuff, keep it well as it might be able to save your life during crucial moments!”
As he spoke, he fed the thumb-size tail to a small figure laid out on the bed.
Ji Mo Ya looked on nervously at the process, not daring to blink.
