The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 462: The Lord of the Corpses
The old bartender's eyes turned softer when he saw the small sack in Jiu Shen's hand. He then looked at the young human in front of him with a new look. “Speak. As long as I know about it, I will answer your question..”.
Jiu Shen smiled after hearing the old bartender's words. “I came from out of town and I heard that there is a town called Blue Rift City somewhere around here. Do you know anything about it?” Jiu Shen asked calmly.
The old bartender's eyes blinked for a moment. He then looked left and right carefully before he replied in a whispering voice. “Young people, do not ask such questions again in public in the future. There is indeed a city called Blue Rift City, actually the location of Hard Rock City was once the area where Blue Rift City was located. However, the City Lord of Blue Rift City offended someone honorable. He was killed and destroyed along with Blue Rift City.”
Jiu Shen was not surprised when he heard that. Such things were normal in the Primordial God Realm. Without sufficient strength, you will only be trampled by others!
After hearing his reply, Jiu Shen pushed the God Stone sack towards the old bartender. “One more question, what happened to the Blue Wave Sect?” He asked with an indifferent look.
The old bartender carefully picked up the God Stones sack as he replied. “Young man, since you are generous, I will give you a final warning. The person who killed the City Lord of Blue Rift City was the same person who destroyed the Blue Wave Sect. I don't know his real name, but people call him. he's Mr. Corpse ..”
Jiu Shen was satisfied with the information he received from the old bartender. “Thank you for the information.” Jiu Shen nodded at the old bartender before leaving the pub. He decided to take a walk around Hard Rock City to get more information.
The city was quite prosperous and most of the surrounding companies had Formation Arrays for protection. Some even had ferocious wild beasts as guards!
After looking around for about a day, Jiu Shen finally arrived inside the city library. It was huge and had a lot of books. Jiu Shen quickly went to the history section and searched for information related to Blue Rift City and Blue Wave Sect.
He found four books mentioning them and he quickly read the contents of those books. Jiu Shen discovered that what the old bartender said was true. However, there was one additional detail he learned from the books.
The City Lord of Hard Rock City was the same person who killed the City Lord of Blue Rift City! This revelation made Jiu Shen feel slightly satisfied.
“I have to go back and look for another. This place is supposed to be safe with the Corpse Lord watching.” Although Jiu Shen was still not in his peak condition, he was not afraid of this so-called Mortal Master.
Jiu Shen immediately left Hard Rock City and immediately went to look for the temporary camp of the Heavenly Sword Tower. It didn't take long for him to find them since he was familiar with this location.
“Did you find anything?” Theia asked as she looked at Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen nodded calmly and replied. “I did find something. Blue Wave...” He then told her about what he found.
Theia was not proficient in handling sects. He was also not good at talking to people because of his personality, so he could only ask Jiu Shen for guidance.
“We will rest for now and let others get to know the place first. After everyone calms down, I will try to communicate with this Mr. Corpse and see if he is willing to let us build a building near his territory. If not, then I fear that Hard Rock City will soon have a new City Lord.” Jiu Shen said with a mysterious smile on his face. Theia also smiled after hearing the confidence in her tone.
A day later, Jiu Shen returned to Hard Rock City to search for the current City Lord known as the Corpse Lord. It didn't take long for him to find the location because the city guards were easily bought by his God Stone.
The Manor of the Corpse Lord was located in the central part of Hard Rock City. It was covered by a high wall made of precious high-tier stones and the manor gate was protected by a team of peak stage newborn realm experts.
“Retreat! No one is allowed to enter the City Lord's palace without an appointment in advance!” One of the guards warned when he saw Jiu Shen move towards them.
Jiu Shen ignored the warning and continued to move forward calmly. He knew that if he acted weakly in front of these guards, he would be ignored by them. The most ideal thing to do here was to show them his strength!
When the guards saw that Jiu Shen had not heeded the warning, they immediately surrounded him while taking out their weapons. Anyone who dared to ignore the City Lord guards were not weak, so they immediately chose to take out their weapons.
Jiu Shen only smiled coldly upon seeing this scene. He could crush this cretin with a wave of his hand, but he did not want to create too much trouble. Mr. Corpse might be supported by someone, so it was better to remain cautious without further information.
Jiu Shen slowly released his True God Realm spiritual aura and shouted. “Mortgage Master, how about you come here so we can chat?”
The guards were dumbfounded when they sensed the aura of Jiu Shen's spirit power. This human was actually a True God Realm!
