The Immortal’s Wine Store Chapter 227

Chapter 227 - Shocked Old Man

Five days after the rebellion of the Xue Family and the Undying Corpse Sect, ’The Immortal’s Wine’ greeted an unexpected guest.

It was an amiable-looking old man with long white hair that reached his waist. He looked like a refined individual with his graceful bearing and sagacious charisma. This old man was none other than Emperor Elyk’s father.

Behind the old man was Emperor Elyk who wore a broad grin on his face as they entered the wine store.

“What the?!” The old man revealed a look of surprise as he surveyed the store. The exterior design was already great enough to shock him, but to think that even the interior design surpassed his expectations!

From the ceiling down to the floor, everything inside the wine store could only be described as luxurious and exquisite! Heck! Even the tables and chairs looked impressive!

“Oh my! Oh my! Our imperial palace looks like a shabby cottage in comparison to this place! Truly beautiful!” The old man exclaimed with a shining gaze.

Emperor Elyk could only chuckle dryly when he heard that. He felt the same as his father when he first saw the change in the wine store.

“Wait! Wait! Wait! Are my eyes deceiving me!? Those spiritual plants… Aren’t they… Earth Origin Dragon Trees?! And those right there! Aren’t they… the already extinct True Heart Icy Sword Tree?!” The old man who was still calm just a few moments ago was now panting heavily as he stared at the 9th-rank spiritual plants displayed like some sort of bonsai.

Even their Silveria Imperial Family only had one 9th-rank spiritual plant, and it was even placed in a very secure location that was tightly guarded by their most elite soldiers! So how could he not be surprised to see such high-level spiritual plants displayed so openly in public? One of which was even an extinct type. And to the old man’s surprise, not even one customer bothered to glance at these precious spiritual plants!

Looking at the customers’ faces, the old man was bewildered. He discovered a few mercenaries among them and most of these mercenaries were known for their greedy nature, so how come not even one dared to look at those spiritual plants? However, when the old man recalled Jiu Shen’s strength, he felt that it was slightly understandable, but even so, it would not hurt to look at it for a moment, right?

Behind him, Emperor Elyk snickered secretly when he saw the look on his father’s face. The emperor’s lips trembled as he suppressed his laughter.

The old man failed to notice the silly expression of his son since his focus was only on the sights before his eyes. He inched closer to the spiritual plants, but before he could take another step forward, the old man suddenly felt a pair of cold eyes staring at his back piercingly. He furrowed his eyebrows and turned his head.

He saw a valiant young lady with golden hair. She was dressed like a knight and a sword was strapped behind her back.

When the old man sensed her strength, he drew a gasp of surprise. ’Late stage 9th-rank Saint! And from the youthful aura she exudes, she should be no older than thirty! What the hell!’

“If I were you, I wouldn’t take another step forward.” Theia said with a cold expression.

The old man felt a slight sense of oppression from Theia’s icy gaze. ’She is one minor realm weaker than me, so how come I have a strange feeling that she could easily defeat me?’ He muttered in his heart.

Even so, the old man did not flinch outwardly. He stared back at Theia like an unbending pine tree. “Young Lady, I mean no harm. I only want to take a closer look at them.” He said while feigning calmness.

Theia furrowed her eyebrows. The old man’s gaze was clear and did not contain any hint of malice, but she still stubbornly stared at him, refusing to back down.

Emperor Elyk felt a sense of deja vu as watched this scene. He did not make a move since he knew that nothing bad would happen. He just wanted to see the defeated look of his old man. Thinking about it, Emperor Elyk chuckled in his heart.

“What’s going on here, Theia?” A tantalizing voice of a seductress suddenly drifted, making Theia, Emperor Elyk, and the old man stare at the newcomer.

She was a tall young lady with long purple hair. She wore a short crystal white dress that accentuated her curvy figure.

“Meili.” Theia greeted warmly. At first, Theia did not like this dragon lady, but after more than a month of seeing each other, they became as close as sisters.

Long Meili smiled at her. She then shifted his gaze to the emperor’s father and asked in a polite tone. “Is there anything wrong with our service, sir?”

The old man remained silent. It was as if he did not hear her question. He just glanced at Long Meili with a stupefied look on his aged face. ’This aura! I’ll never be wrong about this! Another Nascent God Realm expert! What kind of place is this?! Is this really just a wine store?! Not to mention that none the staffs look weak…’

“Sir? Long Meili waved her right hand in front of the old man which made the latter break away from his dazed state.

“Ah, this… I only want to take a closer look at the Earth Origin Dragon Tree and the True Heart Icy Sword Tree. I mean no harm, Young Lady.” He said, looking rather composed, but he was inwardly screaming in his heart.

“Oh, in that case, just allow this gentleman to take a closer look, Theia. It doesn’t matter as long as he doesn’t touch them.” Long Meili said to Theia with a smile.

Theia reluctantly nodded her head.

“Okay, but you must not touch them.” She said while glaring at the old man.

“I promise.” The old man said seriously.

After this short exchange, Long Meili left the scene after saying a few words to Theia. The latter also went back to her spot to continue observing the other customers.

The old man heaved a sigh of relief when the two women left. “So that’s why everyone is so well-behaved here, huh.” He muttered.
