The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 465: Balkans
After the two reached an agreement, the two of them stood up with satisfied expressions. Although Jiu Shen felt a little regretful that he could not kill this old man, he was still happy with the exchange.
“It's nice to do business with you, Corpse Lord. I will not stay here long because there are still many things I have to do.”
The Corpse Lord smiled as he said. “I hope there will be more exchanges between us next time, Mr. Jiu Shen. My manor door will always be open for you ..”
The Corpse Lord could not wait to drink the wine he got from Jiu Shen, so he did not bother to make him stay for long. He was stuck at the early stages of the True God Realm. This batch of wine might help him reach the next stage!
Jiu Shen only smiled at her words. He then left the manor under the guidance of the Corpse Lord.
When the guards saw Jiu Shen being guided by the City Lord with a friendly smile, they became curious about this human identity. The City Lord was known for his fearsome reputation and they did not believe that he was speaking peacefully with someone.
“You can visit here anytime, Mr. Jiu Shen.” The Corpse Lord said as he looked at Jiu Shen's face. Up until now, he still could not discern the thoughts of this man. This is dangerous because they are neighbors now. However, he had to take this risk because the wine presented by the other party was too precious for him.
Jiu Shen waved his hand without saying a word. He then left with calm and steady footsteps.
The Corpse Lord stared at his figure, his mind unknown. When he could no longer see Jiu Shen's shadow, he glanced at the guards standing in front of him and said. “Do not hinder him when he comes here again.”
“Ya, City Lord!” The guards nodded their heads seriously.
The old man then returned to the manor…
***
Jiu Shen did not immediately return to the camp. It was because he received a new mission from the system.
ding!
Mission Details: Searching for new locations to build another branch store.
Mission Gifts: x3 Cultivation Fruit
Jiu Shen smiled after reading the new command. He then used his spiritual perception to search for the best place in Hard Rock City. After searching for a while, Jiu Shen picked an area near the main entrance of the city.
The traffic there is excellent and the location is ideal for its new branch store.
Jiu Shen arrived in front of an old building. This is a restaurant, but it only has a few customers.
Jiu Shen entered the building and since the customer was rarely in this place, he was instantly seen by the owner. The owner is a demi-human with a boar head. She looked shabby with her usual looking clothes. The interior of the building was unexpectedly clean. The furniture and ornaments in it look old, but still attract attention. Overall, the restaurant was not bad.
“Welcome! What do you want to order?” The pig-headed owner greeted Jiu Shen with a lifeless look.
Jiu Shen glanced at the owner calmly. He could sense the weak true essence emanating from this person. He was only at the Origin God Realm and it was quite surprising that he had survived for a long time in this place with his strength. “I don't want to order anything, but I plan to buy this place. Give me the price.” Jiu Shen stated in an arrogant tone.
The owner was slightly surprised when he heard Jiu Shen's words. ‘Is this guy new here? Did he not know that this restaurant was under the protection of Boss Serek?’ The owner thinks for himself.
“This... Although I am the owner of this restaurant, I still have to discuss this with Boss Serek...” The owner felt a little embarrassed when saying this. Boss Serek was connected to the City Lord, so he did not dare to fight this man.
Jiu Shen furrowed his brows upon hearing this. It seemed like he had found an unreliable owner. “Tell me where I can find this guy.” Jiu Shen uttered in a calm voice. He doesn't want to waste any more time. He couldn't wait to obtain those three Cultivation Fruits!
The owner felt a little nervous when he saw the indifferent expression of the human before him. He didn't seem to care about Boss Serek's reputation. Is he confident or is he just stupid?
“Eh, I-” Before the owner could answer, he suddenly heard a series of loud footsteps outside the restaurant. From the tremors of the ground, it seemed like there were more than a dozen people coming.
When he heard these familiar footsteps, the owner's expression turned extremely ugly.
“Someone is really looking for me?” A loud and deep voice came from outside the restaurant. His voice carried a strong sense of oppression and strength!
Jiu Shen grinned as he turned his head. “It seems I don't need to waste my time looking for you.” muttered Jiu Shen while looking towards the group that had entered the restaurant. This group is from the same race. They have thick and strong arms and a high muscular figure. These people only had one eye, the most distinctive feature about them.
These people were from the Balkan Race. The race is widely known for its inherent fighting skills and ferocious personality. Only a few dared to cause trouble for them …
The Balkan group frowned when they saw the indifferent smile of the little human in front of them.
The tallest and most muscular among the group stepped forward and walked towards Jiu Shen with a ferocious glint in his eyes. “I don't think that a little human like you actually dared to act arrogantly in front of me.” He released his peak stage Mystic God Realm aura to scare Jiu Shen away.
However, the human remained motionless as he stood there with the same indifferent smile.
