The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 186 Silver Dragon Auction House
“Woah! Young expert! And she is also as pretty as a flower!”
“Never think of seducing her. Have you seen people with him? Especially Yang Zenke, he was still fifteen years old, but he was already an early stage 4th rank Knight Crusader realm expert! Even the best student of the three! a great noble family is not as strong as him.”
“Hei! Have you forgotten about the son of the supreme elder of the Xue Family? I heard his strength mysteriously increased, and he is now at the peak stage of the 4th rank Knight Crusader realm!”
“You mean Xue Tong? That person is already twenty-one this year, and you actually compare him to a fifteen-year-old? You idiot!”
The crowd spoke amongst themselves as they observed Yang Zenke and Xiao Hua's group. They were the same age as them, but Yang Zenke and his comrades were still much stronger and their support was also not to be taken lightly.
“Master, how can you increase the strength of these brats in just over a month? When I last saw them, they were not this strong. I can even sense that they smell blood and killing intent. . This is a clear sign that they have suffered a murder.” Lu Sulan glanced at his master in surprise. Although he already knew that his master was someone from the Primordial God Realm, he had no knowledge of the place. So he was somewhat confused by Yang Zenke and another sudden leap of strength.
Jiu Shen was quite secretive about how she scolded Yang Zenke and the other youths. Even Can Ye who oversaw their training knew nothing about it.
“Don't forget that your master is a high-level alchemist. And about how I trained them, you will find out after the sect is officially established.” Jiu Shen replied indifferently.
Lu Sulan pouted, but he did not bother Jiu Shen anymore. He knew that he would not tell her no matter how she asked him.
“Master, let's go to the auction house. It's still morning, but it should have been opened for their guests.” Lu Sulan changed the subject. He was very interested in the auction tonight, so he was a little excited to talk about it.
Jiu Shen was also interested in this auction, but she did not expect to find anything valuable there. Could it be that there was something of interest to him in the auction of the mortal world? That's almost impossible. Besides, he'll just go there for fun.
“At first I wanted to tell Elyk that we are here, but since you really want to go to that auction, then let's go. If I'm not mistaken, this Silver Dragon Auction House should be owned by the imperial family, so he should be present at the auction tonight. It's not too late to see him then.” said Jiu Shen.
After obtaining Jiu Shen's approval, Lu Sulan's cold expression suddenly melted into a beautiful smile. “Master, let's go.” He said while pulling his master's arm.
Jiu Shen shook his head helplessly, but he still followed behind him. ‘Mendesah. This girl was even more excited than the children. It seems like he was completely confined in their ice castle because of his past condition.’
Yang Zenke, Xiao Hua, and the others followed behind the two with excited gazes. This was their first time attending the auction, so they were very enthusiastic.
It did not go far towards the Silver Dragon Auction House as it was not too far away from the imperial palace.
Upon seeing the majestic building with the dragon statue at the entrance, Jiu Shen grew more and more convinced that this auction house was owned by the Silveria Imperial Family. Who else besides the imperial family would dare to place a dragon statue at their entrance?
There's been a long line of people coming into this building. It was a very large place, so it was no problem to accommodate several ten thousand people. Moreover, only the rich had the ability to enter such a place, whereas for those with no background, they could only dream of entering it.
The entrance of the auction house was guarded by two middle-aged imperial guards. Their cultivation level was at the early stage of the 6th rank King realm. These two imperial guards assessed Jiu Shen's group, and one of them seemed to recall something as he immediately said with a smile. “Guests, you can go inside without paying the entrance fee.”
The other imperial guards were shocked by this, but when he saw his comrade's signal, he swallowed the words he was about to say.
Jiu Shen's expression remained calm after hearing this, but he still nodded his head at the two imperial guards to thank them. He then entered the building without saying a word.
After no longer seeing Jiu Shen's party figure, the imperial guards who had been silent the entire time finally spoke in confusion. “Brother, why did you let the group in without asking for an entrance fee?”
The imperial guards were stunned hearing this. “You mean that man is Wine Lord Jiu? I heard he was good friends with His Majesty.”
“Not just that..”

The inside of the Silver Dragon Auction House was quite large and spacious, and there was a platform at the very center where the items to be auctioned would be displayed. There were already many people inside, but they did not even occupy a quarter of the total seats inside.
“Auction house is huge! Just incredible! I wonder what will be auctioned later.”
“Are we not going to know then? Stop asking questions and don't embarrass our Ice Cloud Sword Sect.”
The young disciples from the Ice Cloud Sword Sect were talking amongst themselves excitedly. As for Yang Zenke and the others, although they were also excited about the auction, they could still remain calm.
“Halo, guests eh-Wine Master Jiu?!” The sharp exclaim made Jiu Shen's group glance at the young lady who had greeted them. After seeing his face, they were stunned because they knew who he was.
“Greetings Her Royal Highness Fifth Princess!” The group of disciples Yang Zenke and Xiao Hua immediately greeted him.
“So this is why you are not present this time to work in the store? You are actually here to manage this auction house.” Lu Sulan teased Princess Sylvia with a smile.
Jiu Shen speechlessly glanced at the fifth princess and only nodded his head in greeting.
“I-This ...this is the arrangement of the father of the emperor and he said that I will manage the auction house of the imperial family in the future. He sent me here to gain experience .. It's okay about that. Follow me to the VIP room upstairs. ” Princess Sylvia said while forcing a smile. He was somewhat embarrassed after being ridiculed by Lu Sulan. They were quite familiar with each other as they both worked as servants in Jiu Shen's shop.
Princess Sylvia did not wait for their answer and she immediately brought them upstairs. There were five VIP rooms inside the Silver Dragon Auction House, and only honorable people were allowed inside. Three of the five VIP rooms had already been taken by the Beiming Family, the Liu Family, and the Alchemist Hall, so there were only two VIP rooms left. The latter two were supposed to be taken by the imperial family and the Xue Family, but since Jiu Shen was here, Princess Sylvia did not even hesitate to offer the VIP room meant for the Xue Family to her group.
“Your Majesty, didn't you say that this VIP room was prepared for our Xue Family? Why did you bring people here?” A black and purple-robed old man said in a displeased tone. He had just come here earlier and he had already discussed with Princess Sylvia that this room was reserved for the Xue Family, but now, he saw her bringing a group of people to this place, he said, so how could he not feel unhappy?
Princess Sylvia might be quiet and meek in front of Jiu Shen, but she was a mischievous and mischievous young girl in front of others.
“Did I say that? I don't remember discussing anything with you. Old grandpa, please step aside. Can't you recognize Wine Master Jiu and Lady Sect Lu with your old eyes?” Princess Sylvia snorted haughtily. He did not even glance at this elder from the Xue Family as he walked into the VIP room.
“You!” The elder's beard flared up and he nearly lost his composure after being looked down upon by the little lady's demon, but he hurriedly calmed himself down and put on a grim smile at Jiu Shen's group before he left with heavy strides.
“Small girl, you are really good at making trouble. You even dared to mess up the Xue.” Family Lu Sulan giggled as he looked at the cheeky face of the fifth princess.
“Hmph! What can the old man do? If he dares to bother me, I will pull out his beard!” The fifth princess snorted in disdain. He didn't put anyone in his eyes at all.
Jiu Shen glanced at him and sighed in his heart. ‘It looks like this little boy still doesn't understand about Family Xue ...’
