The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 539: The kind-hearted Jiu Shen
Jiu Shen observed the battlefield through his spiritual perception. The arrival of the Celestial Paragon Tower people reversed the state of war. The Infernals were pushed back despite their overwhelming numbers. Celestial Paragon Tower showed its superiority in skill and strength!
However, a small group of people wearing pure white armor also displayed strength that was not inferior to them. They were like a bunch of tigers slaughtering a bunch of sheep, reaping lives with each strike of their swords.
The allied soldiers were amazed by their prowess so they began to question the identities of these people.
“They wear the same armor as Wine Master Jiu Shen. I think those people are his subordinates.”
“They only numbered in the thousands, but the amount of Infernal they killed was almost equivalent to six great armies! To think that there were actually hidden forces as powerful as them! They could even be compared to high-ranking elites. from the Heavenly Paragon Tower!”
In the allied army camp, the resting soldiers discussed as they watched the brilliance of the Heavenly Sword Tower people.
A voice filled with admiration suddenly interrupted their chatter. “They are from the Heavenly Sword Tower. A hidden sect nurtured by Wine Master Jiu Shen. If not for their help, many of my friends would have died.”
The soldiers turned their eyes towards the man who spoke. It was a tall man with blue hair and long pointed ears. This person was a member of the Ice Elf Race, a rare noble lineage in the Elf Race.
When the Ice Elves noticed everyone's gazes, she smiled at them and said while pointing at the badge on her chest. It was the emblem of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion. “Our Heavenly Melody Pavilion is tasked with providing support to the allied army. We are the ones who control all Array Formations, but they are all destroyed by the High Chieftain of the Infernals. As the controller of the Formation Array, our souls are broken, leaving us vulnerable. It was then that the Heavenly Sword Tower led by one of their Division Heads appeared and protected us as we retreated.”
Everyone felt admiration for the Heavenly Sword Tower as they listened to the story of the Ice Fairy.
Meanwhile, somewhere on the battlefield, a gigantic Phoenix suddenly appeared, burning the Infernals with fiery red flames. His savage eyes revealed an expression of excitement as it shattered a large number of Infernals.
scream!
It flapped its wings and summoned a whirlwind that burned the Infernals to ashes!
This Phoenix was none other than Furion, the one pure-blooded Phoenix left.
The scream!!
Furion cried out in excitement as he released a gust of fire that burned thousands of Infernals in his path. He then flew back to the allied army camp and turned into a human form. “Sial! Tiring day for me!” He spat with a desperate tone.
They had been fighting the Infernals for one day and the allied armies had to fight in turn to recover their energy. It was a good thing that they had a large number of recovery pills that accelerated their healing.
“Master Furion, this is a regenerative pill created by our Heavenly Melody Pavilion. Please take.” A pleasant voice floated beside his ears as a lithe figure stood in front of him. She was Ai Chen, the Mistress of the Pavilion of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion.
Furion raised his head and glanced at the outstretched hand. He held a small pill that shone with a golden light.
“Thank you.” He took the pill and swallowed it.
Ai Chen smiled and lowered his head lightly before he left, leaving behind a fragrant lilac scent left in the air.
The Heavenly Melody Pavilion was filled with talented individuals. They accept people who are experts in their respective fields of study so that they have a diverse amount of talent. The man who was recognized as the best Alchemist in the Primordial God Realm was even one of their Elders!
“How lucky! He got the pill from Madam Pavilion Ai Chen!”
“Shut! Don't you know who that guy is?”
“…”
Furion ignored the whispers of the rested soldiers and controlled his true essence to speed up the refinement of the healing pill. He then swept his gaze towards the camp. “The men had just retreated early, but they had already returned to fighting again... Are they battle maniacs?” He muttered with a wry smile as he failed to find the members of the Heavenly Sword Tower.
***
Jiu Shen resisted the urge to kill the members of the Heavenly Paragon Tower. If he were to kill them now, the Infernals would gain momentum and the allied army would be in an unfavorable position. “I'll spare your life for now. This is also a good opportunity for my subordinates to sharpen their skills.” He muttered while hiding behind a dark cloud.
He wouldn't mind waiting a little longer. “I will only treat this as compensation to help the allied army.” Jiu Shen had a strange smile on his face as he said those words.
Behind the scenes, he had also secretly aided the allied army by firing spiritual attacks at the leaders of the high-level Infernals. He even prevented the death of many soldiers just by summoning a little bit of his strength. Of course, he still prioritized the safety of the Heavenly Sword Tower.
Although Jiu Shen had already become strong enough to single-handedly defeat Lao Gou and the Heavenly Paragon Tower, he wanted to see his subordinates grow stronger with him. He had experienced the death of his family and friends in his past life and he did not want to experience the same pain.
Jiu Shen swore that he would live happily with them after he destroyed Lao Gou.
