The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 526: Jiu Shen Out of Exile
It was the same sunny, scorching day in the desert region and The Immortal’s Wine Store became the most famous retreat for vagrants and travelers crowded with people. Although many customers were inside the wine shop, the temperature inside remained cold. It was the perfect place to relax in the desert region!
Jian Wang and Furion were among the crowd of customers. They sat in front of a table for 2 people in the far corner of the dragon building.
“Brother Jian, more and more people go here. There may come a time when we will not be able to enter the dragon building due to the large number of customers. If not for the expensive price of wine, more of them would be here.” Furion shook her head as she muttered in a sad voice. He had already stopped asking about the owner of the wine shop a few decades ago. The wine shop changed their waitresses every year and it was hard to befriend even one of them.
Jian Wang remained silent. For some reason, something had been bothering him all along. She had no idea where this unpleasant feeling came from, but she knew that her instincts would never lie to her.
When Furion saw that his friend was not listening to him, he pouted with dissatisfaction. “Brother Jian, you've become more reserved these past few years. Tell me what happened.” He said in a serious voice.
Normally, Jian Wang would talk to him about random things, but he had become very quiet in recent years. It was as if the man was bothered by something, but what kind of thing could possibly disturb a Heavenly God Realm expert like him?
Jian Wang put down his silver cup and looked at the pouting Furion. He put on a serious look as he said. “In the last decade, I felt uncomfortable for some unexplained reasons. I didn't think too much about it at first, but the anxiety I felt increased with time. This time, my instinct told me that there would be danger!”
Furion's casual appearance was replaced by a serious expression. “Now after you say it, I also feel a bit uneasy in the last few years. I thought it was just me getting older, but from the looks of it, things might be more complicated ..”
Jian Wang nodded.
Suddenly, the second floor door was pushed open. Everyone subconsciously turned their heads when they heard the creaking of the open door.
A man with long silver hair tied a ponytail came out from behind the door. His face was expressionless and he had a mysterious aura around him. Six more people were trailing behind the man, all of them had extraordinary cultivation that frightened the customers. The weakest among the six people was the purple-haired man who was at the mid stage of the Heavenly God Realm. As for the silver-haired youth leading them, they could not discern his strength!
Under the shocked gazes of the visitors, the twenty young servants of the dragon building lined up in two rows and bowed to the silver-haired youth as they greeted him in a respectful voice. “Greetings, Winner Jiu Shen!”
When the crowd heard the greetings, they became even more shocked. They knew that the mysterious owner of the wine shop was named Jiu Shen. However, no one had seen his shadow for the past hundred years. It was as if he had suddenly disappeared.
“Grandwoman Jiu Shen? Isn't that the name of the owner? I heard that he entered exile a hundred years ago. Looks like he just came out of seclusion.”
“His owner looks handsome!”
All sorts of discussions broke out after the arrival of Jiu Shen's group.
Many among the visitors judged the silver-haired young man.
Over the past hundred years, the reputation of the dragon building had spread far and wide so its big name had even reached the middle of the Primordial God Realm! Countless famous people wanted to see the mysterious owner of the wine shop, but he had never shown himself for many years.
Some people took out their communication crystals to inform their leaders of the arrival of the wine shop owner. Meanwhile, some of them took out a Recording Array Formation to record the entourage of owners.
Six high-level Heavenly God Realm experts followed obediently behind a young man. It was rare to see such a shocking sight!
Jiu Shen calmly waved his hand at the greetings of the young servants. “Back to work.” He muttered in an indifferent voice.
The young maids bowed in unison before they returned to serve the customers.
Jiu Shen ignored everyone's gazes and turned to the far corner. There were two people sitting there. One was a red-haired man and the other was a middle-aged man with a sword strapped behind his back. They looked normal among the customers, but Jiu Shen knew that the two were not ordinary people. The other was a saint beast with a pure Phoenix bloodline. His strength was at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm, just a breath away from the ranks of Heavenly Emperors!
Jiu Shen calmly walked towards their place and stood in front of them with a fist as he greeted them. “God Furion and Sword Jian Wang, nice to meet you two here in my simple shop.” His voice was neither condescending nor arrogant. He still had the same expressionless expression as he greeted the two top experts.
“Wait! Did he say Sword God Jian Wang?!”
“The man is actually Sword God Jian Wang?!”
“Cannot be! I've been drinking here for decades with the Sword God Jian Wang?!”
Astonishment covered everyone's faces when they heard Jiu Shen's greeting.
