The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 66 Wine Master Jiu Is an Alchemy Saint?
Master Fengzi and the four Alchemy Emperors sat down and glanced at each other with strange expressions attached on their faces.
They did not expect that their visit here would surprise them for no reason. Who in their right mind would make a rank 9 Saint realm expert become a doorman? Not only that, there was even an 8th rank heavenly realm expert acting as a servant…
Suddenly, their overall impression of the mysterious Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen increased by several degrees.
“What do you want to order, honored guests?” Hestia smiled as she asked the alchemists with the unchanging smile she gave every day.
Master Fengzi glanced at Hestia respectfully and replied in a slightly cautious tone. “Do you have a menu here, young lady?”
Hestia smiled apologetically and said. “Unfortunately we don't have a menu yet, honored guest. But all the items sold in it were written on that whiteboard.” He then pointed at the blackboard hanging inconspicuously in front.
Master Fengzi and the four Alchemy Emperors followed the direction he pointed to and looked at the small blackboard with a neatly written row of words.
When they saw the price, they were a bit surprised, but they never showed the shock they felt. They were just a little curious at the high price…
Master Fengzi's expression remained the same as he glanced at the price. He then smiled at Hestia and said. “Five Deep Sea Spring Dews for us, young miss.”
Hestia had long sensed the cultivation of these new guests, so she was not surprised by what they ordered. He just gave them a nod and said with a beaming face. “One Deep Sea Spring Dew is 120 True Crystals. You order five, so it will be 600 True Crystals. Is there anything else, dear guests?”
“That's it for now, young lady.” Mr. Fengzi chuckled.
‘Although this is the Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen wine shop, who knows if he is also a good winemaker right?’ The alchemists thought in their hearts.
After getting their reply, Hestia gracefully turned to fetch them some wine.
“Head of Fengzi Branch, this store does not look normal at all. Space manipulation, staff strength, and the way customers act.” The middle-aged alchemist voices his thoughts with his eyebrows knitted tightly together. The name of this man was Wang Wei, one of the four vice branch heads of the Beltran City Alchemy Hall Branch.
Master Fengzi looked at Wang Wei with a deep gaze making Wang Wei swallow the words he was about to say.
“Remember, this place is Saint Jiu Shen's Alchemy grass. A person like him was not lacking in experts serving under his wings. Don't talk too much so that you accidentally cause her displeasure.” Master Fengzi said in a serious tone.
Master Fengzi suddenly recalled the words of the supreme elder of their Alchemy Hall during his youth.
“Fengzi, your talent in the alchemy arts is astounding even I would not dare to accept you as my disciple. But even so, I will still give you the entire Alchemy Hall when you yourself become an Alchemy Saint.” A kind-looking old man with long white hair said as he patted the back of the then middle-aged Master Fengzi.
The lips of the supreme elder trembled. The old man then laughed out loud to cover his emotions. “Remember this Fengzi. No matter how strong you are, don't let your achievements increase your ego. Because there is always someone out there who is much stronger than you.”
Master Fengzi sighed emotionally after recalling the incident. ‘I have to visit the supreme elder after this and tell him about the Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen. Maybe the supreme elder knows something about him.’ He thinks to himself.
“Honored guests, this is your order from Five Deep Sea Spring Dew. Enjoy.” The voice of Hestia echoed beside the ears of the alchemists like a sweet melody that made their tense nerves calm down a little.
Hestia carefully placed five bottles on their table and she also gave them one small silver cup each.
“Thank you, young lady. But before you leave, may I ask if Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen is here?” Master Fengzi asked with a slightly nervous feeling. He really wanted to see Jiu Shen once again and talk to her about the alchemy arts.
Hestia raised her eyebrows, feeling a little surprised. But he then relaxed after sensing that the other party had no ill intentions. “My master is currently brewing wine, but he will be here in the near future.” He answers.
Master Fengzi heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Hestia's reply. “Oh, really? Glad to hear. To be honest, I want to talk to your master about-.”
“Eh, isn't this the little brat from the Alchemy Hall?” The calm and indifferent voice cut through Master Fengzi's speech halfway through.
Master Fengzi's lips twitched upon hearing that familiar voice. He then searched where it came from and saw a handsome man with long silver hair standing right in front of the kitchen entrance with his arms crossed.
The same lazy attitude could also be felt from him, but the alchemists did not dare to underestimate him because this man was what they were looking for. The mysterious Alchemy Saint who manifested the Aurora Pill when he made the 8th class Refresher Meridian Pill, Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen.
“Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen!” Master Fengzi stood up from his seat and bowed respectfully to Jiu Shen. The four Alchemy Emperors followed him despite not being there to witness Jiu Shen's majesty when he concocted the Refreshing Meridian Pill. Branch Head Fengzi had no reason to lie to them about something so important. Moreover, many other alchemists were there to tell the story.
When customers inside the store heard the words ‘Alchemy Saint Jiu Shen’, their eyes widened like plates. They then glanced at the silver-haired Jiu Shen with more respect and admiration.
Everyone did not doubt its authenticity in the slightest. They could feel the sincerity of the alchemists as they bowed to Jiu Shen. And knowing their great status, they would never submit to just anyone.
“So Wine Master Jiu is also an Alchemy Saint?” Boss Scar felt his mouth dry with this revelation.
‘The simple and simple Master of Wine Jiu is actually an Alchemy Saint ?!’ The hearts of customers are now in a state of frenzy. Who can blame them? It was an Alchemy Saint!
An expert at that level would never show himself in front of everyone for no reason! And to think that the owner of the Immortal Wine was actually an Alchemy Saint himself!
‘OK ... I had to cancel my plan to steal the space treasure ..’ Xue Tong muttered in his heart, feeling very scared at this moment.
