The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 399 Double
Jiu Shen came out of the Spirit World with Cornelia. Succubus continued to look at him with strange eyes even after leaving the Spirit World.
Realizing her return, Theia walked towards him and held his hand. He ignored Cornelia's jealous gaze and continued to hold Jiu Shen's hand.
“I completed my breakthrough, but I still have some resources. Take some for your cultivation and give the rest to others.” Jiu Shen patted Theia on the head before giving her a premonition about the cultivation resources. Some of them were pills while others were unused God Stones. He did not give away the remaining Cultivation Fruits because he needed them more than them.
At this moment, Jiu Shen still had three Cultivation Fruits. With this sum, he would be able to reach the final stage of the Void God Realm!
Theia took out her cultivation resources and stored them in her outer space ring. He then glared at the succubus standing behind Jiu Shen. After warning the succubus with her eyes, Theia left satisfied.
Cornelia, after your father leaves the Spirit World, you will be crowned Empress. There should be no opposing force left after your brother's death, but you should make sure nothing goes wrong. Observe the nobles and officers for the time being. If you notice any unusual behavior, report it back to me.” Jiu Shen said as he sat on the chair.
Cornelia felt a little uncomfortable being ordered by Jiu Shen, but when she recalled her father's words and the traumatic tribulation in the Spirit World, she swallowed her doubts and nodded her head obediently.
“There should be no hidden power left that could threaten my ascension. However, there are indeed some members of the noble family who oppose me becoming empress. The Torgrim Family and the Lycan Family. Some of the weaker nobles also supported these two families in the shadows. Originally, they planned to support my brother and make him a puppet emperor, but with Amon's death, there had to be a change in their plans.” Cornelia reported with a glint in her eye. He had been observing the actions of the nobles for many years and he had long known of their plans.
Hearing this, Jiu Shen leaned back in her chair and gestured for the succubus to sit on the chair opposite her. “I think your Bloodfallen Family has a strong grip on the Great Demon Empire. Looks like I've overestimated you ..”
Cornelia was embarrassed to hear his words. Their Bloodfallen family was strong, but they could not stop the greed of the other noble families.
“Hmph! Even if they decide to rebel, then what? Father alone is enough to crush them to death!” Cornelia muttered in disdain.
Jiu Shen calmly opened a bottle of wine and took a sip. He then glanced at Cornelia who was salivating and said in a mysterious tone. “What if the Narda Kingdom secretly helps those nobles?”
Cornelia's eyes widened and she thought deeply. It was indeed possible, but was the Narda Kingdom strong enough to fight against its father? Do they have experts in the Void God Realm?
“I've never heard of them having a Void God Realm expert, but even if they have one, he shouldn't be as strong as dad, right?” Cornelia looked at Jiu Shen curiously. He wanted to see if this man knew anything.
According to his father, he was now Jiu Shen's subordinate. He even dragged the entire Bloodfallen Family to follow Jiu Shen. If they needed Jiu Shen's help, he would be there, wouldn't he? He doesn't know…
“Before long, I killed a demon named Garland. He was a Void God Realm expert from Narda Kingdom. I haven't investigated them yet, so I'm not sure if they have more experts in the Void God Realm. However , I'm sure one of the noble families will probably give you a surprise.” Jiu Shen chuckled. He already knew everything about the Great Demon Empire, including the cultivation level of everyone living within it. Some time ago, he discovered that the noble family had actually hidden his true strength to the world!
“What do you mean?” Cornelia felt her heart beat violently upon hearing Jiu Shen's words. There seemed to be a hidden danger near them!
“I will only tell you after your father returns.” Jiu Shen replied calmly.
Cornelia pouted, but she did not urge him any further. Even though he felt a little anxious, he could still wait. Moreover, Jiu Shen was now standing behind their Bloodfallen Family. With his strength, he could even possess the entire world of Nuar!

Outside of the Great Demon Kingdom, ten thousand miles to the north was the territory of the Narda Kingdom.
City of Hegante, capital of the Kingdom of Narda.
In the center of this prosperous city was a towering building that looked like a giant medieval castle.
“Double Demon Empress, I want to ask if Demon Emperor Garland is back here?” Lou Baiqing asked nervously as she knelt in front of the figure wrapped in a fiery red robe.
This demon has a human-like appearance. He has a perfectly sculpted face and smooth facial features. His long red hair touched the ground and swayed every time he moved his head. There was also one blade-like horn on his forehead that told everyone his demonic origin.
She did not have the aura of teasing Cornelia, but her beauty alone had already surpassed her a dozen times!
This woman is the Dual, the leader of the Narda Kingdom. No one knew about him other than the main character of the Narda Kingdom. It was also why he could remain hidden and unknown after so many years.
“He's not here.” A soul-shaking voice came out from his mouth.
Lou Baiqing's face fell as she muttered. “Then he should be dead by now ..”
