Chapter 353 – Passing Out From Shock
The general saw that his subordinates were slightly nervous. However, he could not blame them since one of the five Demon Lords of Morlon City was here. Not to mention that even he was feeling slightly anxious as to what was going to happen next. After all, he has yet to know if the one he met was the same person who ordered Aren to save them.
Looking at his anxious subordinates, the general put on a calm look as he commanded them. “Brothers, let’s take a seat first while we wait for that person. Although we have yet to meet him, he shouldn’t be a bad person since he was the one who ordered that sir over there to save us.” The general said as he glanced at Aren.
His men felt much better upon hearing their leader, but they could still not fully remove the anxiety in their hearts.
The soldier wearing glasses suddenly said. “Sir, I noticed that even the three ladies we met earlier were all Nascent God Realm experts. Inside this lotus building are five Nascent God Realm experts, including the man who saved us and Demon Lord Burlock. The person who could command them…” When his words reached that point, a line of sweat trickled down his forehead.
His words made everyone silent. Even the general who was putting up a calm look felt his lips tremble as he tried to say something. In the end, he slumped to his chair with a heavy sigh.
Just then, a wooden door with an intense divine aura suddenly emerged within the store, stunning the human soldiers. Their eyes widened in shock as they watch the door slowly open to reveal a young man with long silver hair tied in a ponytail. The young man had an indifferent expression on his face even after seeing the general and his group.
The general became even more astonished when he realized that this young man was the same person he had met before. Beside him, the soldier wearing broken spectacles shriek. “High-level space manipulation! V-Void G-God Realm!”
The bespectacled man’s eyes widened to an unnatural degree before he passed out from shock. However, no one came to help him since his words made his buddies tremble from head to foot.
Aren was also surprised by this since he wasn’t here earlier when Jiu Shen revealed the celestial door. After regaining his composure, he quickly greeted Jiu Shen with more respect and awe. “Master, I have completed the task you gave me.”
Jiu Shen calmly nodded his head at him. He then shifted his gaze to the general and the others, but before he spoke to them, he lifted his hand and flicked a globule of light towards the unconscious bespectacled man.
The moment the small ball of white light touched the man’s forehead, his body shook as he abruptly stood up. He still had a dazed look on his face as he held his head. When he recovered, the man stared at Jiu Shen in horror.
After seeing that he was fine, Jiu Shen finally glanced at the general. He saw that one of the latter’s arms was amputated. He dished out a pill from his space earring and tossed it towards the general as he said. “Drink it. As for your subordinates, they can pick a few healing herbs outside the store.”
The general stared at the pill in his hand. It looked like a typical pill, but he could sense a strong amount of life force as he held it. Without hesitation, the general quickly popped the pill into his mouth and sat cross-legged.
Aren who was looking at the scene frowned when he saw how impatient the man was, but when he noticed that Jiu Shen was silent, he chose to stand aside.
The general felt a warm current exploding within his body after he consumed the pill that Jiu Shen had given him. ‘It must be a precious pill.’ He thought to himself.
Suddenly, he felt his armless shoulder was beginning to feel itchy. He opened his eyes and saw something incredible. In the place where his arm was cut off, tissues, muscles, and bones regenerated at a discernible speed.
“This… I actually ate such a priceless pill!” He exclaimed. After less than a few minutes, a brand new arm was attached to his shoulder!
The general felt his stomach churn as he spat a mouthful of black liquid, but before it could even touch the floor, an invisible force evaporated it.
The general’s subordinates were tongue-tied after witnessing the scene. They had never heard of a pill capable of regrowing broken limbs, but this young man actually toss it to their leader as if it was nothing worthy in his eyes!
Ignoring their horrified and reverential expressions, Jiu Shen took a seat and muttered calmly. “We meet again kid. It looks like you encountered a terrible situation earlier.”
The general sighed when he heard Jiu Shen’s words. “Without your help, my men and I would have died at the hands of those demons. I can’t thank you enough, esteemed sir.”
“It’s nothing. Honestly, I thought that there were no humans here in the Crimson Fiend Continent, but then I saw you guys.” Jiu Shen took out a bottle of Deep Sea Spring Dew from his space earring and chugged it down.
“Esteemed sir, if you don’t mind me asking, are you from the Profound Dragon Continent?” The general asked curiously.
“That’s right. I came from the Profound Dragon Continent. I became bored after playing around there, so I decided to open a store here.” Jiu Shen replied carelessly.
The general and his men were speechless at his reply. Even Aren who was listening at the sidelines almost stumbled when he heard his master’s words. ‘So the master came from a different continent…’
“We can chat later. For now, bring your men outside and let them pick a few herbs to help them heal their wounds.” Jiu Shen waved his hand indifferently.
Hearing that, the general bowed his head politely and walked outside with his men.
Before they stepped outside, they heard Aren’s cold words. “Remember, just take what you need or else….”
