The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 516: The Tongue Slips
Jian Wang and Furion became regular visitors of the wine shop. They will arrive in the morning and leave during the day. The two of them also tried to befriend the young servant of the dragon building and asked about its owner.
Soon, wine shops became more famous in the desert region. More and more people became their customers and they even attracted some higher-ups. However, no one dared to make a fuss inside the wine shop as there were rumors about it being protected by dozens of high-tier Protective Array Formations.
A few months later, Jian Wang and Furion walked towards the newly opened golden gate.
“We've been here for a few months, but we still haven't seen the owner of the wine shop. Even the old man and the little girl had never walked out of the second floor since. Brother Jian, I think it's people deliberately avoiding us.” Furion muttered while scratching his head while thinking.
Jian Wang shook his head after hearing his words. “No. I think they are cultivating in seclusion. I asked one of the maids and he told me that the little girl back then had run away from her training. I don't know what they're doing, but it's none of our business to dismantle. If we wait, we will finally meet the owner of the dragon building. As soon as he comes out of seclusion, I will try to ask him if he wants to sell his wine in bulk.”
Furion nodded in understanding. They come here every day just to drink wine. They even rented a small house in Hard Rock City just to save time traveling.
When the two stepped in, they were warmly greeted by a pair of young and beautiful maids.
“Good morning, Mr Jian and Mr Furion!”
Since they had become regular visitors, the waiters already knew both of them. Of course, they still did not know that their loyal customer, Master Jian, was actually Jian Wang!
Jian Wang and Furion smiled at the two young ladies. They enjoy the unique atmosphere of the wine shop. They also had a good impression of their courteous young servant.
After the two were ushered to an empty table, a young maid asked them with a smile. “Do you want the usual?”
Jian Wang and Furion nodded.
“Good. Two bottles of Sword Divinity Ardent Spirit, three bottles.” The servant expertly stated their usual order.
The first time they met these people was a few months ago. Back then, they simply ignored them and did not think too much about their presence. However, the same group would come to the dragon building every day. Although they were cautious in their actions, Furion and Jian Wang were still paying attention to their strange actions.
“They have the unique battle aura of the secret cultivation technique of the Heavenly Paragon Tower, the Almighty Holy Fire Canons. They used a Heavenly God ranked cloaking technique to cover their battle aura, but they were unable to escape my detection.” Jian Wang muttered calmly.
Furion was shocked when she heard those words. He tried to investigate the group for several months using his spiritual perception, but he did not even sense their battle aura! That meant their cloaking techniques were among the best at the Heavenly God rank! “That means Lao Gou's parents already know where you are here. Maybe he used it to monitor our movements. Since when was that old fart so nervous?! He even dared to send his subordinates to observe us!”
Although he was not angry, Furion still felt irritated at the thought of being noticed. Not everyone will be at ease if their every action is noticed.
“Leave it. We have been living in seclusion for millions of years, so I can understand why the old man was curious about our sudden appearance in this remote area. I believe that his subordinates had already told him about the effects of the wine being sold in this store. We might soon meet that old man Lao Gou.” Jian Wang shrugged his shoulders with a unconcerned look. He did not mind some insects observing them as long as they did not disturb his peaceful life.
“Tuan Jian, Mr. Furion, here's the wine. Enjoy!” A clear and melodious voice resounded beside them. A young maid with long black hair and a plump figure smiled at them as she placed their wine on the table.
“Thank you, Miss Phoebe! Oh, by the way, did the owner come out of seclusion today?” Furion casually asked. She didn't really expect too much, but she still asked him.
The young maid named Phoebe shook her head. “Grandwoman Jiu Shen never came out of seclusion. Everyone inside the second floor had not yet come out. However, I heard that an important figure of our Heavenly Sword-“
Phoebe hurriedly closed her mouth after realizing that she was about to slip in important information. His face paled and he repeatedly apologized to the two men before he left.
“Attracting.” Furion revealed an interested expression as she looked at the fleeing young lady. From her slipping tongue, the young lady mentioned something about ‘Our Heavenly Sword’. “What do you think, Brother Jian? It seemed that this dragon building had a mysterious background. You also told me that the Protective Array Formation written here is at the level of a Heavenly rank. Among the three experts of the Heavenly God Realm, only Asmodeus was an expert in Formation Arrays. From the looks of it, there may be a connection between them.”
“You're right, but all this is just speculation. We will only know about these things after the owner comes out of seclusion. For now, let's enjoy this rare moment of peace.” Jian Wang replied while drinking his wine.
