The Immortal's Wine Store

Emperor Balmond noticed that Jiu Shen no longer had an interest in talking to him. He smiled politely and nodded his head. "Alright. Thank you for your time, Wine Master Jiu Shen. We will take our leave now..."

Jiu Shen waved him off with a calm look on his face.

Seeing this, Theia immediately stood up and gestured for the guests to follow her. "Our valued guests, Wine Master Jiu wants to rest now, so please follow me outside."

Emperor Balmond stared at Theia\'s face. From how Jiu Shen passed the diplomatic discussions to this woman, she seemed to hold a special place among his subordinates. "Thanks, Young Miss Theia. Cornelia, Hanzo, let\'s go."

Hanzo quietly followed behind Emperor Balmond, while Cornelia sneaked a final glance at Jiu Shen before she left.

Poof.

Ice suddenly transformed into her human form and stared at Emperor Balmond\'s group with disdain. "They finally left! Hmph! That demon was so loud that he woke me up from my sleep! If he was not a Void God Realm expert, I would have clawed his face! So annoying!"

Jiu Shen patted the little girl\'s head with a smile. He then adjusted her posture and held her tightly in his arms. "Just let him be. He will be useful in attracting customers to our store. However, things might not be peaceful in the coming days."

Ice furrowed her eyebrows and turned her doubtful gaze to Jiu Shen. "What do you mean?"

Jiu Shen glanced in a certain direction and muttered. "The demons also have their own internal conflict. I can sense another Void God Realm demon other than Balmond. From how this guy is acting, he must be an enemy."

The little girl\'s beautiful pair of eyes lit up when she heard Jiu Shen\'s words. She could already imagine the scene of chaos in her head.

"Can I watch them fight?" She asked excitedly.

Jiu Shen ruffled her hair as he chuckled. "Of course, but you must be here in the store. A battle between two Void God Realm experts would be dangerous to someone of your level, so you must stay here together with Theia and Meili."

Ice pouted, but she nodded her head reluctantly. "Okay."

"Meili, bring Ice to my room and let her sleep there." Jiu Shen carried Ice and handed the little girl to Long Meili.

"Yes, Master."

"Sister Theia, can you tell me who that guy is?" Cornelia moved closer to Theia as she pointed at a human who was removing weeds in the garden.

Hanzo and Emperor Balmond praised Cornelia in their hearts. They were also curious about this Void God Realm subordinate of Jiu Shen, but they were too embarrassed to ask the cold-faced woman.

Theia stopped in her tracks and turned her gaze at the smiling succubus. She really wanted to smack this girl\'s face, but she held herself back from doing it.

"That man is Yue Bo. It was my master who helped him break through the Void God Realm. He followed us here to serve the master." Theia answered in a cold tone.

Emperor Balmond\'s eyes shone with interest when he heard Theia\'s words.

\'Jiu Shen helped this man reach the Void God Realm? Just how did he do it?\' Hanzo was stunned upon hearing this. He was stuck at the peak stage Demon Ancestor (Origin God Realm), and he was uncertain whether he could reach the next realm. Jiu Shen might be his only way to achieve the impossible!

Sensing a few gazes behind him, Yue Bo stopped doing his work and stood up. His hands were covered in soil, but it was instantly removed by him using his true essence.

After weeding the garden for a few hours, he discovered that the soil here was unlike any other he had seen. It was heavy, full of vitality, and rich in nutrients. It was the perfect soil to grow spiritual plants!

Aside from the precious soil, Yue Bo also discovered a pond near the garden. There were nine fishes swimming within the pond and after observing them for a while, he noticed that these fishes were at least Nascent God Realm beings!

Jiu Shen\'s image in Yue Bo\'s mind became even more mysterious...

Yue Bo waved his hand at the group behind Theia. They must be people of importance since they were personally led by Theia. He also knew that the ferocious-looking demon dressed in luxurious garments was an expert at the Void God Realm.

"So this is the Crimson Fiend Continent. It is indeed a place filled with powerful demons." Emperor Elyk said, feeling slightly downcast. The strength of the demons he had seen so far was way too strong! Just the power of the whole Morlon City alone was enough to destroy his Silver Wing Empire!

However, he vowed that he will kill the demon prince who had assasinated his sons.

"Elyk, it\'s getting late. We should go back to the store. Wine Master Jiu Shen might get angry if we don\'t come back soon." A deep baritone voice echoed in Elyk\'s ears. He then turned his gaze at the demon who was responsible for touring him around Morlon City.

This demon was once A Demon Lord serving Demon Ancestor Jun, but he was now working in Jiu Shen\'s store.

\'Life must have been tough for him..\' The emperor thought.
