The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 552: Marbas
“It's true. I think the person who called the comet was Jiu Shen.” Jian Wang was certain of this. He had seen the extent of Lao Gou's strength and the man was not strong enough to unleash a technique at this level. The only person he could think of was Jiu Shen.
The crowd was shocked by this revelation.
“I remember someone named Jiu Shen millions of years ago. He was a man with extraordinary talent with outstanding skills in swordsmanship. At that moment, the public believed that he was the fourth strongest in the Primordial God Realm. That meant his strength was only below three Celestial Emperors.” An old man wearing a worn-out battle suit suddenly spoke. His words made everyone collectively turn their eyes to him.
“Now after you mention it. There is indeed someone by that name, but I heard that he was killed by Heavenly Emperor Lao Gou. Unfortunately, I forgot the reason why the Heavenly Emperor killed him back then.” Another expert added.
The younger experts were confused by their words. They had not been born when the person was alive, so they had no idea what the old experts were talking about.
Unbeknownst to them, there was someone who revealed a trace of anger when they discussed this.
Jian Wang immediately sensed this and he sent Theia a puzzled look. ‘Why did this girl suddenly emit killing intent? Wait... Could it... Impossible!’
A moment of awareness flashed across Jian Wang's eyes as he stared at Theia's beautiful face. The goddess-like figure overlapped with Theia's image and this made her click her tongue.
“If everyone is very curious about it. How about we go and visit Middle Region?” Jian Wang voiced out a suggestion.
Four of the six great troops revealed hesitant expressions after hearing this.
They had done nothing when the Celestial Paragon Tower was killed during the previous confrontation, so they felt a little nervous about returning to the Central Region. After all, it was the territory of Heavenly Emperor Lao Gou!
Meanwhile, Ai Chen, Ri Kushou, and the members of the Heavenly Sword Tower agreed with Jian Wang's suggestion.
Jian Wang looked at the worries in the eyes of the four major powers. He grinned as he convinced them. “Do not worry. I won't let Lao Gou do anything to you guys.”
Hearing this, the four major powers heaved a sigh of relief and nodded their heads in gratitude.
“Then, we will follow the settings of the Sword God Jian Wang.”
Jian Wang chuckled after hearing their words.
“Wait!”
Everyone turned their eyes and saw a man with long golden hair and three pairs of wings.
Seeing him, they immediately cupped their fists respectfully as they greeted him. “Greetings, Sky Emperor Asmodeus!”
This man is Asmodeus. The strongest Array Formation Maker ever!
Asmodeus's face was still pale. It seems he has not fully recovered.
“I'll go with you.” He said as he looked at Jian Wang.
Millions of experts left the Desert Region under the lead of Jian Wang.

Jiu Shen glanced at the prostrating crowd. He ended up injuring countless innocent lives to achieve his goal. To correct his mistake, he decided to reconstruct the entire region and make it his territory.
After all, he could only move the building of the Heavenly Sword Tower and the dragon building with the help of the Asmodeus Array Formation.
As he was thinking about his next plan, someone caught his attention.
It was an old man whose beard had reached his knees. He looked weak with skinny arms and twig-like legs. However, the old man's murky eyes revealed a trace of brilliance and wisdom.
“Heavenly Emperor, we await your orders!” The old man raised his head and stared at the figure that was floating in the air like a god.
The strength of the old man was not weak either. He was a peak stage of the Heavenly God Realm, but his clothes looked shabby compared to what others were wearing.
‘He must be a traveling cultivator.’ Jiu Shen thought as he slowly descended to the ground.
He stood in front of the old man and muttered. “What's your name?”
The old man did not dare to raise his head while making close contact with Jiu Shen. He could feel the holy aura emitted by the young man which almost made him believe that he was talking to a god.
“I-This name is Marbas. A traveling cultivator from the Middle Region.” Marbas did not realize that his voice was shaking.
“Marbas, right?”
Marbas nodded his head obediently.
“Marbas, lead everyone here and find more survivors. Also, I want you to find a trustworthy construction company by the end of today and bring them to me.” Jiu Shen planned to repair the destruction he caused in the region. Since this place would be his territory, this was a necessary expenditure. Money is not a problem for him because he already has the wealth of Lao Gou.
Marbas' eyes shone with an intelligent light upon hearing Jiu Shen's words. He lowered his head and answered. “As you command!”
He decided to take a chance like this and he didn't want to miss it. This is an opportunity to serve the Celestials! The Celestial was so strong that he ended up destroying a large part of the Middle Region (now called the Heavenly Sword Region).
Jiu Shen dismissed Marbas and decided to return to the Southern Region to meet Elena. He wanted to know why he had chosen to hide from the spotlight even though he was a Celestial.
However, he suddenly saw a large fleet of floating ships moving towards him. He furrowed his brows and used his spiritual perception to observe the group.
“Ho... Have they finished off the troops of the Heavenly Paragon Tower?” Jiu Shen grinned as he looked at the members of the Heavenly Sword Tower among the people riding the flying ship.
