Jian Wang frowned after his initial surprise. From the way the old man spoke, he was merely following the commands of this Wine Master Jiu Shen. That means the old man wasn’t the owner…
‘The owner should be upstairs. How did he inscribe dozens of Celestial-rank Protective Array Formations? The number of resources needed to make them is already more than enough to make a powerful country! However, all those precious materials were used to protect a mere wine store!
What was even more shocking was the fact that the owner was capable of making such high-level Array Formations. Even Jian Wang wasn’t capable of such a feat! After all, he wasn’t a master of Array Formation making.
‘That means the owner of this dragon building already has the power to stand on equal footing with the three Celestial Emperors! Jiu Shen… The only man I know with this name has already died. Could he be alive?’ Jian Wang thought to himself after sorting out all the clues he had found.
Including himself and Lao Gou, the third Celestial Emperor is Asmodeus, the guardian of Hell.
Among the three of them, Lao Gou was the most high-profile, and practically everyone in the Primordial God Realm has already heard of his name. As for himself, the people of the Primordial God Realm only knew of his name and only a few top experts would be able to recognize him. And finally, Asmodeus was an individual who was difficult to understand. He had so much power in his hands, but he never involved himself in the power struggles. Asmodeus was even more discreet than Jian Wang.
“It looks like the Primordial God Realm will welcome the fourth Celestial Emperor soon.” Jian Wang muttered with a hint of expectation in his tone. The presence of another behemoth would be the start of a new age! He might even have the chance to improve his swordsmanship further when the time comes.
Furion who heard his words was stunned. “Fourth Celestial Emperor? What do you mean by that, Brother Jian?” He asked in a whispering voice.
Jian Wang stared at him and remained silent. It was only his speculation and he was not yet certain about his claims, so it was better not to tell Furion about it. The guy was a huge blabbermouth and it was a bad idea to tell him such things.
When the dozens of Protective Array Formations inside the dragon building lit up, the faces of Berith and Domas fell drastically. They never thought that the old man would actually activate the Array Formations for a mere child!
“Hold on! The wine store would be destroyed if you release the power of these Protective Array Formations!” Domas was sweating profusely as he tried to speak to the old man. However, he was only met with a look filled with extreme coldness. The murky eyes of the old man made him feel a sense of anxiousness.
He might be stronger than the old man in terms of cultivation, but the latter was controlling more than a dozen high-level Array Formations capable of vanquishing them!
Berith finally realized the predicament they were in. He regretted running his mouth against the little girl. He forced out an ugly smile as he said. “Wait! We will co-”
Before he could continue his words, the Array Formations suddenly released their oppressive might that bored down to the two Dark Devils, forcing them to crawl on all fours.
The arrogance on Berith’s face was replaced with sheer terror and panic. There was no longer a semblance of a mighty expert on his pale face.
The two Dark Devils were subjected to a heavy and overwhelming pressure that almost tore their bodies. They could feel their internal organs churning in protest.
The customers shivered when they witnessed the scene.
Those two unruly Dark Devils were at the late stage and the peak stage of the Heavenly God Realm respectively, but they couldn’t even raise their heads under the intense pressure brought upon them by the dragon building’s Array Formation. They swiftly swore in their hearts to never provoke anyone in the dragon building…
Domas was the first one to succumb to the intense pressure, he fainted and collapsed on the floor with white foams in his mouth.
The pressure on Berith intensified after Domas fainted and in less than ten seconds, he also lost consciousness.
After seeing that they had fainted, Ice who was behind Atlas snickered coldly as she looked at the two Dark Devils. She then walked towards them and grabbed them by the neck as if she was holding a pair of chickens.
“You’re lucky that it wasn’t Jiu Shen who came here. If it was him, you two wouldn’t have the chance to see tomorrow’s sunshine.” Ice muttered as she casually kicked the asses of the two Dark Devils, sending them flying out of the dragon building.
Everyone could only stare at her speechlessly throughout the ordeal. None of them dared to make a sound. This little girl was too mischievous and cunning. She might be weaker than most of them here, but inside this dragon building, no one was brave enough to make trouble with her, not after what they had witnessed.
Ice watched the bodies of the two Dark Devils soaring through the skies. A devious grin can be seen on her chubby face. After a little while, she turned around and stared at everyone inside the dragon building, making the guests feel slightly uncomfortable.
The girl was threatening them! And it was effective! Now, no one would dare to provoke her!
Ice tilted her head upwards and walked towards Atlas with a lovely smile. “Old man, you can go back now. I’ll stay here for a while.”
Atlas chuckled upon hearing that, but he shook his head as he replied. “Young Miss Ice, you escape from the cultivation hall without the master’s approval. I advise you to come back with me upstairs lest you anger him any further.”
The face of the little girl contorted after hearing his words. She shrunk her neck as she pouted. “Okay.” Her voice was as small as a mosquito. She knew that Jiu Shen would punish her the moment she comes back, but knowing that guy, her punishment would be more severe if she doesn’t return.
Atlas gently rubbed the little girl’s head when he saw her glum look. “Don’t worry. I’ll put in a good word for you.”
“Really?”
“Of course!”
The crowd watched as the old man and little girl went upstairs.
