The Immortal's Wine Store

Chapter 434: Brat, Don’t Bother Me Again

Outside the lotus building, in front of the spiritual garden.

Jiu Shen slumped on his chair with a tired look on his face. Exhaustion was written all over his face. 

He then whipped out a bottle of wine from his space earring and immediately downed the entire bottle. 

"Ah… The last time I've been this tired was when tens of thousands of Supreme God Realm and Heavenly God Realm experts were pursuing me… I never knew that managing a faction was this tedious… Maybe I should let someone act as my figurehead and pass all these troublesome matters to them." Jiu Shen muttered as he leaned comfortably on his chair. 

Long Meili suddenly appeared behind him and gave him a satisfying massage. He could not help but close his eyes when he felt her soft fingers rubbing his back. 

"Master, you can pass all those matters to us. Although we might not be able to do things perfectly as you do, we will do our best to fulfill everything to your satisfaction. I'm sure Sister Theia and the others would be willing." Long Meili whispered softly to his ears. 

Jiu Shen pushed her face away from him and looked at her in disdain. "I'm not looking down on you lot, but I don't think any one of you are capable enough to manage things on my behalf."

Long Meili felt dejected upon hearing his words. In the end, she could only remain silent. 

In truth, Jiu Shen was already planning to groom someone to do this job. However, no one here in Nuar could satisfy his standards, so he could only wait until he comes back to the Primordial God Realm to search for someone qualified. For now, he could only do these things on his own. 

Suddenly, Jiu Shen's eyes moved in a certain direction. His spiritual perception detected two familiar presence moving towards the lotus building.

"Balmond? They should be here to ask for cultivation techniques suitable for that dolt Artaurus." Jiu Shen could already smell a long and boring conversation with Balmond. 

He then abruptly stood up and kept his chair inside his space earring before turning his gaze towards Long Meili who still appeared to be lost. "Meili, if Balmond comes here, give this to him and tell that brat not to bother me." 

"Meili? Hey! Little Dragon!" 

"Ah, yes! I will give this to him and tell him what you just said." Long Meili took the uneven piece of parchment paper and nodded her head at Jiu Shen. 

"Alright. Bye." Jiu Shen swiftly teleported above the clouds and created a small hut using his power of elements. 

A wooden hut was then erected on top of the clouds.

Jiu Shen waved his hand and enveloped the wooden hut with his spiritual power. This way, no one would be able to detect his presence even if they used their spiritual vision. 

"Let's see the current situation of the Crimson Fiend Continent…" He then released his spiritual perception that covered the entire continent. Nothing could escape his eyes! 

After scanning the continent briefly, Jiu Shen slowly sat down on his chair.

"It seems like the Lycan Family and the Torgrim Family are quite prepared. They even brought a late stage Void God Realm chimera with them." He muttered when saw the huge army hidden on top of a mountain. 

"This battle will forge those little guys to become true elites. After this battle, their battle proficiency should reach the level of those talented geniuses in the Primordial God Realm…"

"How are the preparations?" Herald Lycan asked his subordinates as he eyed them with a serious look.

"The army is prepared for battle, Your Majesty! With the help of the Poison Valley and the undead army, victory is already within our grasp!" A single-eyed werewolf demon general replied with a smile. 

Hearing this, Herald nodded his head in satisfaction. He couldn't believe that Stormhoof has actually succeeded in his mission. The guy managed to get the help of the Necromancer Emperor! Although the old man himself didn't join their army, the undead army he sent alone was almost as strong as the Lycan Family and Torgrim Family's combined strength! 

"Brother Stormhoof, did you really give that Void God Realm savage beast corpse to the Necromancer Emperor?" Herald asked the muscular demon standing beside him. 

Stormhoof's expression became solemn but he still nodded his head. "I had no choice. That old man's strength has exceeded my expectations and even with my power, I failed to see through his cultivation. I could only give him the Fire Wyvern Overlord's corpse in exchange for letting us borrow his undead army." 

Hearing this, Herald was stunned. Stormhoof was already a late stage Void God Realm expert, but he couldn't detect the cultivation level of the Necromancer Emperor? What does that mean? It means that the old man was a lot stronger than them! 

"That old man is too stingy. He is only allowing us to borrow his undead army?" Herald muttered and he felt that his friend was cheated on that exchange. 

Stormhoof sighed and shook his head. "It doesn't matter. We can't afford to offend that old man. Anyway, I can recover from this loss once we've taken control of the Great Demon Empire. By the way, did the people from Poison Valley already prepare the antidotes? Our men must not be killed by our allies."

Herald nodded his head with a smile. "Of course! Their Valley Master, Jiao Lei had already given me the antidote. Now, everything is already prepared! We just have to wait for that succubus' enthronement! Hahaha!" 

Soon, a merciless grin emerged from Stormhoof's face. "Good! Tell everyone to rest! Make sure that they are properly rested before the war!"

Meanwhile back at the lotus building, Balmond came with Artaurus following behind him. 

"Young Miss Meili, did you see Wine Master Jiu Shen? Where is he?" Balmond asked when he spotted Long Meili near the garden. 

The dragon girl stared at him and handed an ugly-looking piece of parchment paper to him as she said. "Brat, don't bother me again… Those are master's words." 

Long Meili turned around and left after saying those words, leaving two demons standing there with blank faces.
