Lin Bai was led by Pei Ji towards a distant area, and the further they walked, the fewer disciples there seemed to be around. Lin Bai felt they might have arrived at the residential area for the higher-ups of the Sword Art Academy.
"Dean, I have brought Lin Bai!"
Pei Ji, with Lin Bai, came to the exterior of a simple tile-roofed house and called out respectfully.
"Oh? Is he here? Come on in."
From inside the simplistic tile house, a playful voice could be heard.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai knew it was Dugu Yun without a doubt.
Pei Ji and Lin Bai both pushed the door open and saw Dugu Yun warming wine in the courtyard.
On the blazing charcoals, a pot of aged wine was boiling hot, giving off an intoxicating aroma.
Lin Bai chuckled and said, "Just by the scent, I know this is fine wine."
Upon hearing Lin Bai speak like this, Pei Ji immediately scolded him, "Lin Bai, don't be rude. Quick, pay your respects."
Lin Bai gave a slight smile.
