The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 107 Second Disciple
Jiu Shen's cultivation was currently at the late stage of the 9th rank Saint realm, but the abyss towards the next realm was not easy to cross. Now that he had two Cultivating Fruits, he felt that it would not take long to reach that level.
– Ding!
– Host, do you want to claim your prize now?
“No. I'll open it later.” Jiu Shen replied.
After more than an hour, the emperor left with Defender Duanmu and the imperial guards. Emperor Elyk was satisfied with his discussion with the Wine Master Jiu. Although he was unable to convince the latter to go to the Alliance with him, Emperor Elyk still managed to establish a good relationship with Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen only asked for a hundred slaves, and with the power of the emperor, it would not be a problem to gather that much within a day. On the other hand, he would get a VIP card from Jiu Shen. Emperor Elyk couldn't help but laugh thinking about it.
Duanmu's defenders and the imperial guards were shocked by the emperor's behavior, but they were grateful to see him happy. After all, the Silver Wing Empire had been through so many conflicts and disputes lately that the emperor no longer had much time to rest. This made his loyal subordinates feel heartbroken.
“Your Highness, it looks like your discussion with Wine Master Jiu ended well. Congratulations, Your Majesty!” Defender Duanmu said as he looked at the emperor with curiosity. He really wanted to know what made Emperor Elyk so happy that his smile almost widened into his ears.
Emperor Elyk glanced at the old defender and chuckled. “Your Old Master, Jiu Wine Master will give me something great tomorrow. I don't think anyone else in the Profound Dragon Continent has this item.”
Defender Duanmu became increasingly curious about the item this emperor was talking about. “Your Majesty, you really want this old man to die of curiosity.” The old defender said with a wry smile.
Emperor Elyk laughed out loud and urged his mount to run forward.
Defender Duanmu shook his head and smiled faintly. “No matter what it is, I will finally know it soon. Our relationship with Wine Master Jiu should have increased, right? Getting to know such an expert was His Majesty's luck. I just hope Wine Master Jiu will be fine.there if our Silver Wing Kingdom faces a disaster.” He muttered as he kicked his mount, urging him to follow behind the emperor.

Inside the Jiu Shen wine shop.
Jiu Shen glanced at Can Ye and sent a message to him telepathically. “Sit here with me. There's something I want to talk to you about.”
Can Ye almost jumped in fear when she suddenly heard someone talking inside her head, but the voice was very familiar to her. He then turned his gaze to Jiu Shen and saw Jiu Shen pointing at the chair in front of him. ‘So, she wants to discuss something with me?’ Can Ye think.
Can Ye smiled at Hu Xiandao and said in an apologetic tone. “Tuan Hu, please excuse me for a moment.”
Hu Xiandao waved his hand and replied. “Do not worry. Please, Brother Can.”
“Greetings, Alchemy Sacred Lord.” Can Ye bowed respectfully.
“Sit.” Jiu Shen said in an indifferent voice.
Can Ye felt depressed sitting in front of an honorable person like Jiu Shen. He did not even dare to raise his head to look at the latter, but in the end, he was still the first to break their silence. “Lord Alchemy Saint, I want to thank you for saving my life. No matter what you want me to do, I will finish it soon.”
“Oh, really? Then why does it seem like you have no intention of returning my kitchen knife?” Jiu Shen glanced at him calmly.
Could Ye almost spurt blood upon hearing Jiu Shen's words. ‘What?! That peerless weapon was actually his kitchen knife?! I thought it was a godly sword ..’
“It... I naturally plan to return it to you, Mr. Alchemy Saint.” Can Ye forced a smile while scratching the back of his head. He actually had a plan to keep the knife to himself, but since Jiu Shen had already spoken, he did not dare to hide it anymore.
“Lord Alchemy Saint, this is your kitchen knife.” Can Ye put the knife on the table with a longing look. Even though it was only a blade, it was good enough to be used as a sword. Furthermore, it was even capable of splitting the heavenly Weapon in two, so the quality of this blade should be unusual, right?
Jiu Shen did not glance at the knife on the table and focused his gaze on Can Ye. “I can give you that knife, but you must consider me your master.”
Can Ye's eyes came out as Jiu Shen's voice drifted. Without any more hesitation, he stood up from his seat and immediately offered Jiu Shen three kowtows as he said in a serious voice. “Murid Can Ye greet sir.”
Jiu Shen did not stop him and simply glanced at him with a satisfied look. Although Can Ye's peerless Saber Heavenly Body was only a god physique, it was still extremely rare even in the Primordial God Realm.
Customers were shocked by this sudden development. Who is Jiu Shen? He is an Alchemy Saint! Anyone who became his disciple would definitely experience a huge change in fate! Liu Mengdi and the others could only glance at Can Ye enviously.
Jiu Shen flicked his finger making Can Ye suddenly stand up. “You are my second student, and I must of course give you a gift for thinking of me as your master, but it must wait now.”
Can Ye felt an intense excitement in her heart. He was already in his forties and he had no hope of breaking through to the 9th rank Saint realm with his current cultivation speed, but he now had a master who was an Alchemy Saint!
“I'll introduce you to your sister later.” Jiu Shen added.
“Congratulations, Mr. Wine Jiu!”
“Congratulations, Brother Can!”
Customers offered their congratulations to the men, making the store a bit boisterous.
