The Immortal’s Wine Store Chapter 167

Chapter 167 - Progress

The glaring sun radiated with a bright light that lit up the whole of Beltran City, awakening everyone from their deep sleep. The clouds drifted across the sky as the morning wind passed by. It was another sunny weather for the capital city.

Jiu Shen who was seated cross-legged on the floor inside his room abruptly stood up and stretched his muscles after the first rays of sunlight touched his face.

Crack. Crack. Crack.

The cracking of his muscles can be heard as he stretched his limbs with a bit of force. This sudden noise awakened the little beauty who was lying on top of Jiu Shen’s bed. She raised her head and took a glance at Jiu Shen with a beautiful smile on her face. This woman was Xia Xinyue.

After she had slept naked beside Jiu Shen that night, she had already treated herself as his woman even though he didn’t receive his acknowledgment.

She would be satisfied as long as she could stay with him.

When they arrived last night in Beltran City, Xia Xinyue even insisted to stay inside Jiu Shen’s room which was immediately rejected by the latter, but after her endless pleading, Jiu Shen agreed reluctantly.

“Lord Sect Master, do you want me to make tea for you?” Xia Xinyue’s soft voice drifted inside the room.

Jiu Shen glanced at her and nodded his head with a calm look. Regarding Xia Xinyue’s feelings for him, he already knew about it, but his heart wasn’t prepared to accept this kind of emotion yet.

After that, Jiu Shen stepped out of his room and went downstairs to tell his subordinates to open the store. He also wanted to check the progress of the kids that he left in Can Ye’s care. Aside from that, he will inspect the relocation process that was promised by the emperor.

When she saw Jiu Shen leaving the room without even speaking to her, Xia Xinyue sighed lightly, but her expression was still full of affection. “Even if I serve you as your maid, I will be willing…” She muttered tenderly.

On the second floor, Jiu Shen saw Ren Shuang who instantly stood up after sensing Jiu Shen’s presence.

“Good morning, master.” Ren Shuang bowed respectfully as he spoke.

Jiu Shen nodded his head at him and recalled about Liuli’s matter. “Shuang, I want you to investigate the woman that came with me last night. I don’t need to tell you who I’m talking about, right?”

Ren Shuang shook his head confidently. There were only two women that came together with Jiu Shen last night. Among the two, one was an elder of the Ice Cloud Sword Sect, and the other one was someone he wasn’t familiar with, so he was certain that Jiu Shen was talking about the latter one. “Master, during your absence, experts from the Xue Family and the Undying Corpse Sect visited the store frequently. Their top experts always visited the second floor to enjoy the fast cultivation speed, while their mid level members stayed within the first floor to gather information about us. Aside from this, I did not discover any strange movements from them, so they should be still waiting for that Elder Ming to come out of his seclusion.”

While Jiu Shen was away from Beltran City, Ren Shuang wasn’t idle. He continuously monitored the movements of the Xue Family and the Undying Corpse Sect. He also secretly protected the one hundred young slaves that were staying in the beast fighting arena, but he didn’t know that there was already a god beast progeny protecting those kids.

Jiu Shen’s eyes flashed when he heard Ren Shuang’s words. He then patted the latter’s shoulder and said. “Good job. Now go and investigate Liuli for me. The second floor will temporarily be protected by her while you’re away.”

“Yes, master.” Ren Shuang bowed before his figure vanished with a faint swooshing sound.

Swoosh.

On the first floor, he saw that Theia and Hestia were already preparing to open the store. He also saw eight young women dressed in western maid outfit that barely covered their youthful figure. Hestia was dressed in a similar fashion, while Theia was still wearing a knight’s armor.

Looking at those four additional waitresses, Jiu Shen was a bit stunned, so he gave Hestia a curious look.

Hestia immediately understood his questioning gaze, so she flashed a pretty smile at him as she explained. “Master, the customers of our store doubled after you left, so I asked Sulan to bring four more disciples to work here. I hope you don’t mind.”

Jiu Shen slightly shook his head. He wasn’t good at managing his store since he didn’t experience doing this in his past life, so he didn’t really mind the additional young waitresses. “It doesn’t matter. You may open the store now.”

After hearing his words, Theia nodded her head and grabbed the door, slowly opening it.

Looking outside, there were already a number of customers waiting, and they were even standing in line with patient looks on their faces. In fact, no one among the customers would dare to behave wantonly anymore since they have already heard the rumors about Theia. Even the Bai Family which was a reputable noble family in Beltran City didn’t dare let out a fart despite knowing that the death of one of their clan members was related to Theia…

“Hestia, I will leave the store for a while. If Liuli comes here, tell her to guard the second floor temporarily.” Jiu Shen ordered before leaving the store.

Hestia bowed at where Jiu Shen had previously stood. “Liuli? She should be that woman.” Her voice was gentle like the spring breeze.

At this moment, Jiu Shen teleported above the sky of Beltran City to survey the ongoing relocation. There were still a few people that refused to leave their houses, but it was only a matter of time before they will leave since this was handled by the emperor. “Elyk that old brat is indeed trustworthy. Not bad.”

His figure then vanished as he teleported inside the beast fighting arena.

Before Jiu Shen left Beltran City several days ago, he gave the training schedule to Can Ye and he also told him to instruct the young men in their practice.

One hundred teens with youthful faces were doing their morning routine under Can Ye’s orders. The kids were afraid of this middle-aged instructor since he looked scarier compared to Jiu Shen appearance-wise, so they didn’t dare complain during his lectures.

Can Ye treated this seriously since this was his master’s orders, so even though he was a bit bored here, he didn’t neglect his duties as the trainer of the young men.

Looking at this, Jiu Shen nodded his head in satisfaction. “Good. Looks like no one is slacking.”

Just as the words left his mouth, he saw a ball of fur lying inconspicuously in one corner of the arena. If one would look closely, this ball of fur has a furry tail wagging left and right.

Jiu Shen’s lips curved upwards when he saw this. “I take back my words. This cat is still as lazy as always.”

A Heavenly God was transmigrated into a different world right after he died. After arriving in that world, he resides in the body of a handsome young man with a mechanical voice inside his head providing him with missions. It also kept on telling him to brew wine every single day.

The system built a humble store within the territory of the Silver Wing Empire where peak experts roam on a daily basis. His first task was to sell... wine?

The patrons thought that winemaster Jiu Shen was not as simple as he seemed to be. Even his identity and background were still a mystery to everyone.

They also thought the adorable and chubby white cat named Ice was just a normal household cat, but Jiu Shen knew that it was actually a 10th-ranked God-Class Glacial Sovereign Tiger.

Join Jiu Shen on his path on becoming the first ever Wine God!
