The Immortal's Wine Store

Alliance Head Situ felt cold in his heart when he heard Jiu Shen's words.

If it was earlier, he would have just laughed it off if someone would speak those words, but the man in front of him was different to the ones he had interacted with in his life.

He speaks as if he was an old man despite his young look and youthful air. Jiu Shen could also remain calm in the face of his overwhelming aura. Aside from that, he might also be the strongest person in the whole Profound Dragon Continent!

'My lovely daughter, just what kind of person did you involve yourself with?' He muttered in his heart as he stared at Jiu Shen with a fake calmness. He was already shaken that he almost failed to cover his shivering limbs.

"Come here. I will make things less painful if you remain obedient." Jiu Shen said as he beckoned Alliance Head Situ to go near him.

Ice strutted out of the store with a wide smile. She then sat cross-legged on the ground and cupped her chin with both her hands as she stared at the scene with great interest.

Some customers also came out of the store to spectate this. It was rare to see an Alliance Head inside their Silver Wing Empire, so they were quite excited to see him fight against Jiu Shen who was known to be a mysterious expert.

"Man, to think that Wine Master Jiu easily slapped him out of the store in a single strike! From what I have heard, all the Alliance Heads has a cultivation level that exceeds a 9th-rank Saint, but I'm not sure what that realm is called..."

"Isn't it the 10th-rank God realm?"

"Idiot! That term is only circulated by those foolish historians who knew nothing about the truth! All I know is that the realm after the 9th-rank Saint is where one could break away from their mortal chains and become an Immortal!"

"Cool!"

...

Ice snorted when he heard their discussion and said in an arrogant tone. "Stupid humans, the realm after the 9th-rank Saint is called the Nascent God Realm. Only those with superior talents could reach that level and this idiotic Alliance Head is someone at the mid stage of the Nascent God Realm. He could not even dodge Jiu Shen's attack, so what made him act all pompous in my territory? Hmph!"

Everyone became speechless when they heard her words, but they also learned something important from that. They never thought that this middle-aged Alliance Head who was easily slapped away by Jiu Shen was actually such a terrifying individual! Then what about Jiu Shen? How strong was he?!

Ice ignored their ignorant looks and shifted her attention back to Jiu Shen and Alliance Head Situ.

"Wait! Friend, let me apologize for barging inside your store with that kind of nasty attitude. I was just worried about my daughter, so I was carried away by my emotions." Alliance Head Situ said as he forced out a smile, but because of his bulging left cheek, his smile looked incredibly ugly to behold.

Jiu Shen remained silent as he thought about what he should do to this man. 'I have to be lenient with my attacks or I might accidentally kill this brat.' He said in his heart.

Alliance Head Situ took his silence as a good sign. He did not want to waste this rare opportunity, so he added. "I will compensate you for damages we made in your store and also for the losses you incurred after our..."

SMACK!

Bang!

Alliance Head Situ could not even finish his words when his figure was once again flung away like a broken doll. He even failed to discover how Jiu Shen had struck him.

Jiu Shen did not stop right there. He continued to hurl slaps that looked slow and light-handed, but every time Alliance Head Situ was hit, a new bulge would come out of his face...

Smack! Bang!

Smack! Bang!

Smack! Smack! Smack!

Ding!

Mission Completed: A Wine God can never be bullied!

Loading Rewards!

Received x 2 Fruit of Cultivation

Received x 1 Lunar Star Rock

Jiu Shen retracted his raised palm when he saw the flashes of texts in front of him. He was not surprised when he saw the two Fruits of Cultivation, but when he saw the Lunar Star Rock, he was slightly taken aback.

The Lunar Star Rock was a superior kind of metal that could only be found in a dying star. It was a type of metal that is commonly used as an ingredient to forging weapons and armors.

'I can use this to upgrade Sulan's broken sword. With that Nascent God Soul and this Lunar Star Rock, it might reach the level of a Supreme Weapon. Not bad...' Jiu Shen muttered when he saw the rewards of the mission.

The Fruit of Cultivation was important to him since it could easily increase his cultivation level, but he was not in a hurry to rank up.

After checking the rewards, Jiu Shen fixed his gaze to the unconscious figure of Alliance Head Situ.  The man was now sprawled on the ground like a dead dog. His face was badly bruised with multiple bulges here and there. He looked as if he was stung by ten thousand bees with his current appearance...

"Oh, I think I overdid it... but I did not even use ten percent of my strength... How can this guy be so weak?" Jiu Shen scratched his chin with a thoughtful look. He then used his spiritual perception to check the man's internal organs.

"Regular breathing, no severe internal damage, a few fractured bones, and a deformed face... Boy, I know you're awake. Stop acting dead or I'll break a few more of those feeble bones." Jiu Shen said in a calm tone, but his words immediately made the 'unconscious' Alliance Head Situ rise on his feet.

"Arm Shorty, I...I..." Alliance Head Situ tried to speak, but he failed to utter a proper word because of his broken teeth and badly damaged mouth.

Jiu Shen raised his hand to signal him to shut up.

"Can you just scram out of my sight?" Jiu Shen said while shooing him away.
