In a tavern, a faint scent of wine lingered.
Zhang San, accompanied by Cui Jiu, entered the tavern and, hearing someone arguing with the owner about watered-down wine, chose a relatively quiet spot.
Over the past few days, Zhang San had been entertaining several Military Chiefs from the Chuan-Yu Road, and now that he'd finally sent them off, he took the opportunity to learn and seek advice from them.
He not only mastered the Twin Blade Technique but also revisited the Bamboo Breaking and Mending Technique in his dreams for eight years, even learning many fighting skills from other Military Chiefs.
With the other Military Chiefs gone, he finally had the chance to meet with Cui Jiu.
"You've already taken away four people, so am I considered one of your members now?"
Being in a tavern, Zhang San wasn't sure if the walls had ears, so he deliberately omitted key words when speaking.
"Not yet," Cui Jiu replied.
Zhang San frowned and asked, "Why not?"
