The Legend of Divine Destiny
LTI 16 - Nine Treasures Phoenix

Moments after cleaning up and having dinner, Shen Lao immediately rushed to leave the inn. Shen Lao stared at a nine-story building with a very beautiful front yard as trees and flowers grew neatly there.

“So this Nine Treasures Phoenix? A new organization was formed five years ago... I'd better get in..” Shen Lao smilingly stared at the signboard that read Nine Phoenix Treasures in a large hurus. On top of the nameplate is a red-colored engraving of the Phoenix Bird.

About five guards who were Peak Stage Star Swordsmen came to Shen Lao who was smiling as he stared upstairs. They thought Shen Lao was a stalker peeking at their master.

According to the documents that Shen Lao took from the Black Water Organization, it was noted that the Nine Treasures Phoenix only had three branches other than in the Jiaran Capital.

What Shen Lao was concerned about was the person who was in business and formed this group. Shen Lao greeted the guards and said that he wanted to buy pills and sell valuables.

The guards allowed Shen Lao to enter. Shen Lao looked over the weapons and pills being sold. Thanks to the information from the memories of the legacy of the Spirit God and the Thousand Knowledge Pill, Shen Lao searched for pills that could help the development of Chi Rong.

“Will he accept my gift..” Shen Lao muttered to himself and shook his head slowly.

Until now Shen Lao still kept thinking about Chi Rong. Remembering she was the woman who first met him.

When Shen Lao held a pill that had a fantastic price. A middle-aged woman came and greeted him.

“Welcome to Nine Treasures Phoenix.” The appearance of the middle-aged woman was very similar to that of a noble.

Shen Lao closely watched his face. Although there are wrinkles, but the beauty is still visible. But according to him, this middle-aged woman had a relationship with the owner of the Nine Treasures Phoenix.

There was a female swordsman who wore a cane and stood beside the middle-aged woman. The two whispered to each other about something.

In fact Shen Lao knew what the two were thinking. Currently Shen Lao suppressed his abilities until he reached the Early Stage Star Swordsman. But the quality of his body, ranging from his muscles, marrow, blood and bones exceeded that of a swordsman in general.

Shen Lao grew for twelve years by eating the flesh of the Beast Beast and Demon Beast. Of course the meat that Shen Lao had eaten for twelve years was extremely nutritious. Even within the Infinite Space Seal were the flesh of the Beast and Demon Beasts that were mountainous.

“Excuse me, I'd like to meet the owner of the Nine Treasures Phoenix. I want to sell resources to you.” Shen Lao wanted to see the reaction of the middle-aged woman and the old old female swordsman.

Both choking. How not because the Nine Treasures Phoenix sells various types of pills, heirlooms and some martial world necessities. But Shen Lao's arrogant temperament made the middle-aged woman and the female swordsman hold their breath and put on a look of astonishment.

Before they spoke, the two introduced themselves. The middle-aged woman introduces herself as Xie, while a white-haired grandmother who is a swordsman named Nue's Grandma.

Grandma Nue had reached the Peak Stage Sacred Swordsman. According to Grandma Nue, Shen Lao only had a special special body. Even more shocking was Shen Lao who had just reached the Early Stage Star Swordsman.

‘It looks like this young man is hiding his abilities. He had no evil intentions, but somehow his friendly eyes stare implied hatred and resentment.’ Grandma Nue nodded and looked at Shen Lao closely.

Since the two switched the conversation, Shen Lao simply listened and sighed, “Aunt Xie, Grandma Nue. I came here to work with you. I have the ambition of making the Nine Treasures Phoenix the largest business organization in the entire mainland of the Continent of the Seven Stars.”

Xie and Grandma Nue choked. Shen Lao's words made the two of them almost laugh, but it wouldn't be nice for them to laugh at customers.

“The flesh of the Beast and the Demon Beast is something that is very rare among the people. It might be possible for a martial arts expert this was an ordinary meal, but what about the residents out there?” Shen Lao told me a little if the resources and needs of the swordsman increasingly thinned out. That was why many warrior groups chose to fight for resources.

Beasts and Demonic Beasts can be the best solution because besides being able to help build muscles and bones. The flesh of the Beast and the Demonic Beast had many properties for the person who consumed them.

“If Aunt Xie and Grandma Nue don't believe me, let junior show you something.” Shen Lao's index finger looked like it was drawing something in the air.

Xie and Grandma Nue looked astonished at Shen Lao's behavior. Before long the eyebrows of the two were raised when they saw Shen Lao flicking his finger.

Xie and Grandma Nue choked on their own breath, as the air in front of the two turned purple before revealing a mountain pile of flesh of Beast and Demon Beast.

“Can I meet the owner of the Nine Treasures Phoenix? I also have valuable information. Maybe this will be your next step.” Shen Lao's countenance changed, “Will you perish in the usurpation of the throne or remain and earn the great reward of Emperor Jia.”

Xie and Grandma Nue were until it was hard to breathe because Shen Lao, a seventeen-year-old youth had a gaze that was as if staring at the future. The young man really thought about his future, and started planting seeds from now on.

“Young Master, can you know where you are from?” For the first time, Xie was seen putting on a very serious face.

Shen Lao shook his head, “My name is Shen Lao..”

Xie held his breath when he found out the name of the young man, “Shen? What the Young Master is..”.

“Aunt Xie. It is not good to ask the background of others. We need to get to know each other first. Don't know then no dear. Right no?” Shen Lao cut Xie's words.

‘L a? It's not a dream, is it? This is your son Liuliu?’ Xie covered his mouth and almost cried, but he held it in.

.

Before long Xie choked on hearing the young man's words. Shen Lao's words were correct as they were, “Wait a minute, Young Master.”

Before leaving, Xie took Shen Lao up the top floor of the ninth floor building.

Shen Lao was amazed to see the magnificent building that became the shop as well as the home of the Nine Treasures Phoenix. He was soon told to wait in a room.

Shen Lao sat quietly and watched Grandma Nue who was standing behind him.

‘If this young man has great ability. Maybe I can help Big Madam and Young Miss.’ Nue's grandmother sat in and tried to figure out Shen Lao's level of ability.

As Shen Lao was troubled by Grandma Nue's strange gaze, the door of the room opened. A beautiful twenty-five-year-old woman entered the room with Xie. The faces of Xie and this girl had many similarities. This girl had long brownish-black hair and was wearing noble clothes. Her parasites were beautiful and her eyes were so softly warmed up to the soul.

“Sorry to have made Young Master Shen wait a long time.” His gentle and friendly voice made Shen Lao smile back at the girl's gentle smile.
