The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 373 Lightning Tribulation Yue Bo
Yue Bo looked at the huge dark clouds in the sky. He could hear the rumbling sound of thunder as occasional flashes of lightning struck.
“Is this my distress lightning? I never thought I would have the chance to break through the Void God Realm. Looks like I should obediently sweep the wine shop of that person when the time comes ..” Yue Bo muttered to herself as the flames in her red eyes lit up violently.
Meanwhile, Jiu Shen glanced at the three women and told them. “Let's stay out of here. If we stay in this place, his distress lightning will only become stronger.”
The three women nodded obediently and followed behind Jiu Shen.
Yue Bo muttered the spell Jiu Shen told him and activated his Fire King's Red Eye. His red pupils released waves of terrifying power that scorched the old man's surroundings.
Yue Bo stared apologetically at the collapsed tombstone. “I'm sorry friends..”
He still found it difficult to control his abilities, but he knew that he would soon get used to it.
Zapp!
A huge lightning strike struck out like a shining white light spear, tearing apart space!
Bang out!
Yue Bo was directly hit, but bursts of fiery red flames covered his entire body, reducing the damage of the lightning.
Ha ha!
Yue Bo laughed like a crazy old man. His stooped back suddenly stood upright as he slowly raised his head to the sky. “Come!! Hahaha!”
Bolt after bolt of lightning continuously struck Yue Bo, but his uncontrollable laughter was still left in the grave that was now already shattered.

“Your Majesty, I've returned.” Cornelia respectfully bowed to the man sitting on the throne. His expression of romance was now replaced by a rare expression of seriousness.
“How is the situation against the Rebel Army?” Emperor Balmond asked as he looked at the kneeling Cornelia. He was very happy with his son. He was the number one expert amongst the younger generation and he had already become a Demon King (Nascent God Realm) at such a young age. His talent was rare even among their ancestors.
Cornelia gathered her thoughts before she answered. “Our Demon Army has captured three Rebel Army bases and we also killed two of their New God Realm experts. The situation on the front line has stabilized after our most recent win.”
Balmond nodded his head, pleased, at the report. “Good! I know you won't let me down. It was a wise decision to place you as the leader of our Demon Army. Even though you are still lacking in terms of personal strength, your battle wisdom and tactics replaced it! “
Balmond also knew this, so he nodded in agreement. “Although so, your contribution to this war is huge. What gift do you want me to give you?” He asked while looking at his daughter. Although her son was disappointing, Cornelia's recent achievements made her happy with her choice of choosing him as crown princess.
Cornelia slowly lifted her head and replied with a sweet smile. “Your Highness, I hope you can give me a short holiday.”
Balmond was a little surprised when he heard this. “Only this? Don't you want another? The soil? A soldier? A treasure? Don't you want all this?”
Cornelia shook her head. “Dad Emperor, your pitiful daughter is now tired of the constant war on the front lines. I want to take a short vacation.” He replied as he acted pitifully.
Balmond chuckled to himself when he saw his daughter acting this way. She knew him well, but since he had great merit this time around, she nodded her head. “Good. I'll approve your one-year break, but you shouldn't get out of the empire without any protection.”
“Don't worry, Father Emperor. I don't plan to exit the empire at this time. I have heard a lot about the strange wine shop in Morlon City. According to my subordinates, the wine sold in that shop had an amazing effect. I want to go and see this place myself.” Cornelia said, a hint of hope could be felt in her voice.
Balmond frowned after hearing this. Although there was no conflict between him and the mysterious owner of this shop, Emperor Balmond was unaware of the other party's thoughts. However, when he saw the appearance of his beloved daughter excitedly, he sighed and reluctantly agreed. “Good. Just don't provoke anyone from that store. Not until we clear the rest of the Rebel Army. It is not good to make more enemies in times like this.”
Cornelia nodded obediently. “Yes, Father Emperor.”
He was also curious as to why his father was so careful with the mysterious owner of the wine shop. However, he did not dare to ask about this.
‘I will investigate this owner myself and see what makes him so special that even fathers are careful of him.’ Cornelia thought to herself.
“Good. You can go now.” Emperor Balmond waved his hand, gesturing for Cornelia to leave the throne room.
Cornelia slowly stood up and bowed to Emperor Balmond before she left the throne room.
Outside, Cornelia's friendly face slowly returned. He let out an aura of seduction, making the imperial guards standing outside the throne room feel their lower bodies getting hotter.
As if she felt their reaction, Cornelia winked at them before she left.
The two imperial guards gritted their teeth and bit their tongues. Only a few seconds later they regained consciousness.
“Sial! I almost lost my soul in the seduction art of His Majesty!”
“Sst! Be quiet! If Your Majesty hears you, I won't bother to help you!”
