The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 22 Deja Vu
Jiu Shen's eyes sparkled after seeing the soldiers right outside his shop. “Hey, the Liu family is rich, right?” Jiu Shen grabbed Liu Xiufeng's clothes and asked with shining eyes.
Liu Xiufeng was confused but he still replied with a serious expression. “Master of Jiu Wine, the strength of the Liu Family is second only to the Silveria Imperial Family. As for their wealth, they had accumulated countless resources over the years and they could be considered one of the richest families within the empire
Jiu Shen remained expressionless, but his eyes glittered as if he had seen a mountain of True Crystals.
“Liu Xiufeng, will you come out or you want us to go there?” A soldier grunted furiously.
Inside the shop, Boss Scar held tightly onto Liu Xiufeng's shoulder, not letting him step outside.
“It looks like Big Brother Xiufeng wants us to go inside. Since that was the case.” Young Patriarch, Liu Mengdi spoke softly and walked towards Jiu Shen's shop with a smiling expression. Over thirty soldiers followed behind him neatly while staring at everyone inside the store with cold gazes.
“We are done. We die.” Liu Xiufeng muttered with a forced laugh.
Liu Mengdi and his soldiers entered the shop. They were somewhat surprised that the space inside was actually much larger than what could be seen outside. Despite his shock, Liu Mengdi focused his gaze on the impolite-looking Liu Xiufeng with a cold smile. “We meet again, Brother Xiufeng. And it seems like your cultivation did not develop much after you left the Liu Family. Too bad ..”
The soldiers behind Liu Mengdi also looked at Liu Xiufeng with a cold smile.
“Do not block my shop entrance. And I don't allow anyone to roam around without buying anything.” A calm voice rang out in everyone's ears and shattered the tense atmosphere. They turned their heads to the side and glanced at the handsome young man with long silver hair tied in a ponytail. None other than Jiu Shen who still had an indifferent look.
Liu Mengdi's lips twitched as she looked at Jiu Shen. He did not feel the true essence fluctuation of the silver-haired youth that made him think that he was just dregs. “Brother Xiufeng, I did not know that you hired a clown to welcome my arrival.” Liu Mengdi said after laughing softly.
Boss Scar's and the others' faces turned somewhat strange upon hearing his words.
“Tell that again if you dare ..” A cold voice suddenly resounded inside the store.
Liu Mengdi looked for the source of the voice and saw a beautiful blonde-haired woman who was looking at him coldly standing beside the door. He was stunned after seeing her gentle face and her eyes involuntarily lit up. “Oh, so we also have a little beauty here? Brother Xiufeng, you really continue to surprise me.” Liu Mengdi said as he looked at Theia from head to toe. ‘This woman is even prettier than that aristocratic young lady. My time here was not in vain at all. Hehe!’
Boss Scar opened his mouth but just as he was about to speak, he felt a familiar cold gaze that frightened him. He breathed and chose to be quiet.
“Theia, they are customers, so don't kill them.” Jiu Shen calmly spoke. Theia lowered her head gently before she walked towards Jiu Shen and stood behind her back.
Liu Mengdi glanced at ‘badut’ with a big smile. He then looked at Liu Xiufeng and spoke in a mocking voice. “Sister Xiufeng, stop stalling. I'm still waiting for you to greet me. Will you do it or not?”
Before Liu Xiufeng could even speak, Boss Scar stepped forward and said in a stern tone. “Young Master Mengdi, Liu Xiufeng is no longer part of the Liu Family. He is under no obligation to welcome you.”
A soldier pointed his finger at Boss Scar and shouted furiously. “You are ordinary people! Don't involve yourself in the affairs of the Liu Family!”
“Do you ignore me? Or do I have to move?” Jiu Shen calmly stated, but Boss Scar and the others who were a little familiar with his personality knew that Wine Master Jiu must be angry.
Upon seeing them sit down, Jiu Shen nodded his head calmly. He then looked at the smooth-looking Liu Mengdi with a frown. “Are you deaf? Or do you want me to tell you one more time?”
A soldier walked towards Jiu Shen with heavy steps. He looked at Jiu Shen coldly as he said. “The young patriarch may be generous but-” Before he can continue his words, the soldier was thrown outside the store.
“Enough!”
“Width!”
Liu Mengdi and his subordinates became serious after seeing that scene. They did not even see how the other party was moving when the soldier was banished. “Who are you, Mister?” Liu Mengdi asked with a serious expression.
“I don't allow violence here in my store. As for you, will you guys order or not?” Jiu Shen asked with a poker face.
Liu Mengdi's face darkened, but he did not want to move rashly. He then looked at one of his soldiers. The soldier was instantly aware of the young patriarch's thoughts, so he exerted his true essence and dashed towards Jiu Shen. But even before he could step forward, he had already been kicked out of the store.
“Enough!”
“Width!”
The soldier instantly fainted after being expelled.
Jiu Shen shook his head and sighed softly. He looked at Liu Mengdi and made a flicking motion of his finger.
Following his actions, Liu Mengdi and his subordinates fell to the ground in a kneeling position.
“Bang!” More than thirty men were forced to kneel in less than a second. They don't even have the strength to fight.
“Arggh!”
Liu Mengdi's handsome face was filled with sweat and fear as he glanced at Jiu Shen. He finally realized that the silver-haired man was a top expert who was at least on par with their old grandfather in terms of strength.
Their faces were full of agony as if they were lifting a heavy stone. Liu Mengdi gritted her teeth and spoke with great difficulty. “Gentlemen, I ... I do not recognize your honorable self immediately. Sorry-I'm sorry for being disrespectful ..”
Jiu Shen did not remember his spiritual strength, but he stared attentively. “OK, but you have to buy one order for each item sold in my store for all your soldiers.”
Boss Scar and the others who heard his words felt deja vu.
