The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 18 Random Bonsai
“Some mid-level experts just die? Even Mu Sheng who was a peak rank 5 Spirit expert died without being able to fight back.” Boss Scar muttered with a blank expression on his face. As for Liu Xiufeng and the other mercenaries, they stared in fear at the heroic-looking Theia.
“Master, this is your order of two Blanc Ables. Enjoy!” Hestia gently smiled as she carefully placed the two bottles of wine in front of Liu Xiufeng. He then glanced at the dazed Scar and the others and asked with a sweet smile. “Halo, gentlemen. What do you want to order?”
Boss Scar's fear and the others slightly eased after seeing Hestia's bright smile. But they did not dare to have indecent thoughts on him. Who knew if he was also a top disguise expert? If so, then they might actually die without a grave.
“One order Tempura Fried Shrimp Dipped to Viper Magma Chilli and also two orders Ables Blanc.” Boss Scar stiffly said with an unnatural smile on his face. The previous scenes were still fresh in his memory, and it might take a long time before he forgot those scenes.
The other mercenaries also ordered their dishes with a wooden look. They did not even dare to stare at the most sensitive part of Hestia, lest those who were next would be burned to death. Recalling the horrific death of Mu Sheng and his subordinates, they all shuddered inwardly.
Mu Sheng and his subordinates might be immoral and perverted, but those people were still one of the most elite mercenary groups. Seeing them die is too real.
“Is there anything else, gentlemen?” Hestia asked with a bright smile.
Boss Scar and the others shook their heads.
After getting their answer, Hestia went to get their order.
“Hestia, you go cook a dish. I'll go get their wine.” Jiu Shen stood up from his seat and calmly spoke.
“Ya sir.” Hestia lowered her head and went to the kitchen to prepare the dish while Jiu Shen walked inside the wine storage area.
A while later, Jiu Shen walked out of the wine storage area with over a dozen grapes floating around. He then skillfully aimed the wine at Boss Scar's table. “This is your order.”
Upon seeing their wine, their eyes instantly brightened. They had even forgotten about the incident as if it was just an insignificant memory.
All sorts of wine scents spread within the shop as the mercenaries opened their wine bottles impatiently.
“Wine Master Jiu is still the best!”
“Yes! This Ables Blanc helped me break through the minor realm yesterday. Really great feeling!”
“If a wine worth five True Crystals already had such an effect, how much more wine would a hundred and twenty True Crystals cost?”
“You mean that new wine? What's his name again?”
The mercenaries discussed excitedly while gulping down their wine in a trained manner.
Jiu Shen's lips curved slightly after hearing their discussion. He closed his eyes and meditated. His strength had suffered many setbacks after he reincarnated. During his heyday, he was a Heavenly God expert with strength that was only below three Heavenly Emperors. But now, he was only an ordinary human in the Saint rank 9 early stage. He still had a long way to go before recovering his past strength. As for how long .. Maybe a hundred years, or ten thousand years, or even a million years. No one knows…
– Ding!
– Host, as the Unparalleled God of Wine in the future, you should not be bothered by your past grievances. Only by having a calm martial heart can your cultivation progress by leaps and bounds.
Jiu Shen attentively listened to the system's serious voice. Although it had forced him to brew wine over the past few weeks, it had also given him a precious heavenly Weapon. So even though he had a slight displeasure towards the system, he was still very grateful to him.
An hour later, the fourth prince and Defender Duanmu walked into the shop with dumbfounded faces. They were shocked about the huge change of stores overnight.
“It.... Why is the space here five times larger than the outside? Could Wine Master Jiu also be able to control the mysterious space arts?” Defender Duanmu muttered with a look of disbelief on his aged face.
The fourth prince was also stunned, but he hurriedly calmed down. He told himself to never again make a fool in this shop.
They then felt a sharp glare after they entered the store. The two men frowned and glanced to the side only to see the blond beauty with a cold disposition staring at them coldly.
“Halo, young lady. My name is Dante, how should I call you?” The fourth prince's name is Dante Silveria. He did not want to tell her his surname or he might think that he was using the imperial surname to force her into submission.
Theia coldly glanced at the fourth prince, but she did not see the slightest bit of hatred from her gaze. His gaze softened a little and he nonchalantly replied. “Theia.”
“Oh, so Young Miss Theia. Nice to meet you today.” The fourth prince smiled and cupped his fists while Theia simply nodded in response.
After realizing that he had no interest in talking to her, he flashed an embarrassed smile before he was dragged away by Defender Duanmu.
“Your Majesty, the woman is not simple. I could not read his cultivation level at all, but he produced a kind of extremely powerful air. His strength should be on par with His Majesty or even stronger.” Defender Duanmu whispered silently.
Defender Duanmu frowned after seeing that the fourth prince was still in a daze. He glanced at the prince and saw that he was looking in a certain direction. He followed her gaze and his old face froze as well. The two men, old and young, looked like wooden statues with wide eyes and gaping mouths.
“The plant is.. Similar to the one I read from the ancient book. This..” The fourth Prince muttered in a slightly trembling voice.
“It... It was indeed the 9th rank Earth Origin Dragon Tree. How could such a valuable plant be here, in this shop? There were even four of them here.Thinking that those rare heavenly treasures were only treated as random bonsai by Wine Master Jiu. I don't know what else to say.” Defender Duanmu doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.
