The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 161 Xia Xinyue's Misunderstanding
As Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue stepped into the Green Wood Pavilion, two rows of scantily dressed servants bowed at them as they spoke in unison. “Welcome, Young Master (Young Miss).”
Xia Xinyue felt embarrassed at this reception and she could not help but blush when she saw Jiu Shen's side profile. He wanted to see what his reaction was when facing this woman wearing revealing clothes. Any man would reveal an indecent or perverted expression if they faced a scene like this, but to his surprise, Jiu Shen did not seem to be moved even after he saw the women. After looking at the women leisurely for a moment, he then turned his gaze towards the interior design of the building. He didn't seem interested in them even a little.
‘Why is Sect Master not interested in them? Could he not like women?’ Xia Xinyue's heart turned cold and she hurriedly wiped away the thought in her heart.
How could a person like Jiu Shen be interested in a careless woman? Merely, he still felt worried in his heart because Jiu Shen's reaction was too unbelievable for a man. There should be at least a little reaction, right?
Xia Xinyue glanced at Jiu Shen suspiciously, and Jiu Shen could only feel perplexed upon seeing Xia Xinyue's strange gaze.
However, how could he know what he was thinking? If he knew what was on his mind, he would definitely laugh amusedly.
How could he like a woman from the mortal world? There might be some peerless beauties here, but were they even comparable to the immortal goddesses of the Primordial God Realm? Definitely not.
A woman in her late twenties suddenly walked towards them with a sweet smile plastered on her face. Her open and towering chest trembled as she moved, while her seductive eyes scanned Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue from head to toe. He was blown away when he saw Jiu Shen's face and his heart beat faster the moment their eyes met. ‘What a handsome man!’ After exclaiming in his heart, his expression restored his smile.
“Welcome, dear guests! Allow me to introduce myself. I am Liuli, the owner of the Green Wood Pavilion. I'll assume you're a couple. You just came at the right time! We still have some empty rooms reserved for couples. like you guys.” Liuli chuckled meaningfully, causing her explosive assets to produce a wave of flesh that could drive other men crazy.
Xia Xinyue smiled shyly when she heard Liuli say ‘pair’, and she couldn't help but see Jiu Shen's reaction. However, he remained separated as if he had not taken Liuli's words into his heart. Seeing this, Xia Xinyue's suspicions increased. ‘No! I have to make sure that ... that Sect Master is a man ..’
Xia Xinyue then looked at Liuli's cleavage which exposed a deep abyss. The latter's chest continued to rise and fall as the latter laughed in satisfaction.
‘This temptress! Hmph!’ Xia Xinyue muttered coldly in her heart.
With an impatient look, Xia Xinyue grimly looked at Liuli's face as she said in a cold voice. “Mrs Liuli, please give us one room.”
Hearing her words, Jiu Shen wanted to speak, but she decided not to. He knew that it was difficult to involve himself in a dispute between two women.
When Liuli felt the coldness of Xia Xinyue's tone, she simply smiled as she nodded her head. “No problem, young lady. I'll take you both to your room. Please follow me.” He then turned around leaving a feminine fragrance left in the air.
Liuli wore a short dress that covered only a small part of her body. Her long legs opened up partially, giving her a seductive and voluptuous atmosphere.
Seeing their owner leading the couple into their room, the women who greeted Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue earlier were slightly surprised.
“Who are the two of them? Madam Liuli actually led them personally.”
“Didn't you see that guy? He looks very handsome. He should be someone with a great background.”
The Green Wood Pavilion had a total of ten floors, and Liuli led the couple to the highest floor where only the most luxurious rooms could be found. Xia Xinyue did not know why Liuli treated them so politely, and she even forgot that she had asked for a single room for herself and Jiu Shen.
Just then, Xia Xinyue suddenly recalled the rumors about the owner of this place. ‘Could he be the real owner of this place? If that's the case, why don't I see something special about him? According to rumors, the owner must be an unexpected expert with a mysterious background. However, other than her figure i, this Liuli looked like an ordinary mortal woman without cultivation.’ Xia Xinyue muttered in her heart while glancing at Liuli's seductive back figure.
On the other hand, Jiu Shen looked at Liuli with interest. ‘Things become interesting. It seemed like the hidden experts of the Profound Dragon Continent were slowly gathering at this place. However, what did the Silver Wing Empire have to attract these many top experts? Elixir. Elixir. Elixir. It seems that you are still hiding a lot from me.’ Jiu Shen muttered to himself.
“Dear Guests, this is your room, and this is your key. If you want to order food or anything else, just press the alarm button in the room.” Liuli handed the golden key to Xia Xinyue with an alluring smile. He also did not forget to wink at Jiu Shen provocatively which made Xia Xinyue frown in displeasure.
“Thank you for leading us here, Mrs Liuli. You can go now. We can handle everything by ourselves.” Xia Xinyue blocked Liuli's gaze as she spoke in a slightly irritated tone. Liuli's flirtatious approach towards Jiu Shen made her uneasy, and she didn't want to give him another chance.
Liuli chuckled as she looked at Xia Xinyue with a provocative smile. He then walked away while deliberately touching Jiu Shen's arm.
Liuli's seductive laughter echoed on the tenth floor of the Green Wood Pavilion, making Xia Xinyue curse the first one in her heart.
“Older Xia, come in.” Jiu Shen had just broken through to the Nascent God Realm after consuming two Cultivation Fruits, and he wanted to consolidate his strength before returning to Beltran City.
Like a surprised rabbit, Xia Xinyue jumped in shock as she looked at Jiu Shen's expression. ‘I will stay in one room with Sect Master ..’ He felt embarrassed when he thought about it which made his cheeks even redder.
Jiu Shen took the golden key from the stunned Xia Xinyue and with a click, their room door suddenly opened, revealing a spacious room with an atmosphere of romance. It was indeed a room meant for couples. . .
Without waiting for Xia Xinyue, Jiu Shen had already entered the room. He wanted to immediately enter a meditative state and consolidate his newly acquired strength. The Cultivation Fruit did not disappoint him and he was indeed able to advance to the Nascent God Realm after eating two fruits. He still had the God Crystal within his outer space earrings, but he was in no hurry to advance his cultivation level any further. He wanted to stabilize his territory first to prevent unnecessary trouble in the future.
There was a large sized bed in the middle of the room, and it could fit nearly ten people at once. However, Jiu Shen was in no mood to admire him, and he quickly jumped onto the bed and sat down cross-legged.
Swoosh's.
Xia Xinyue was still dumbfounded and she did not know what she should do in this kind of situation. A man and a woman in one room ...it was too ambiguous, but an expression of determination developed on Xia Xinyue's face. He wanted to know if Jiu Shen was really a man…
He then stepped into the room and locked the door behind him before he walked towards the large bed with a nervous expression. She was already forty years old, but due to her high cultivation level and the sheer number of beauty products she consumed, Xia Xinyue still had the face of a young lady in her early twenties. In fact, she could still be considered a young woman in the cultivation world.
Unaware of his thoughts, Jiu Shen who was sitting cross-legged, sunk deeper into his meditative state as he slowly adjusted his breathing while checking the changes in his body.
Jiu Shen's tribulation lightning this time was too powerful, but fortunately, the system helped him in reducing the power of the God Annihilation Eye God or else he would turn into ashes in just a second. He was even able to nourish his physical body and soul using the lightning strikes produced by the God Destruction God Eye.
