The Immortal's Wine Store

Swoosh.

However, the emperor didn\'t even bother to explain things to him and just whizzed past him. Hanzo was stunned and he was wondering what Emperor Balmond was planning to do.

With a troubled look, Hanzo followed the emperor with his fastest speed, leaving behind a trail within the blue skies.

In just a few minutes, Emperor Balmond saw the outline of Morlon City. It still looked the same as how it did in the past. The only difference was the presence of a beautiful and huge azure lotus somewhere at the center of the city. It was definitely the wine store of Jiu Shen. The emperor thought to himself.

As he neared the wine store, he noticed a human cleaning the garden outside the lotus building. He looked ordinary, but Emperor Balmond felt a sense of pressure coming from this guy.

\'A Void God Realm expert? Is this Jiu Shen? But from what my subordinates told me, he should be a handsome young man.\' Emperor Balmond walked towards the gate with a baffled look.

Hm?

Yue Bo placed the broom at the side and furrowed his eyebrows as he glanced at the incoming demon. This guy\'s stature was tall and broad. Yue Bo could also sense the dangerous vibe emitted by this demon. \'A Void God Realm demon? Is he the emperor of this empire?\'

"Are you Jiu Shen?" Emperor Balmond skipped the chitchat and asked right away as he scrutinized the man in front of him. From the aura of this human, Emperor Balmond realized that he had just recently broken through.

Yue Bo stared into Emperor Balmond\'s eyes with a calm look. He was surprised that he wasn\'t afraid of a Void God Realm expert now. He wondered if it was because of his cultivation or because of Jiu Shen\'s presence.

"You got the wrong person. I\'m just a subordinate of Wine Master Jiu Shen. If you\'re looking for him, he is inside the store chatting with a succubus lady." Yue Bo said as he lightly smiled.

Hearing his words, Emperor Balmond was stunned. A Void God Realm expert was just Jiu Shen\'s subordinate? Emperor Balmond felt a sudden chill in his heart. It looks like their plan has to be canceled. It would be fine if their plan succeeds, but if it fails and Jiu Shen noticed their involvement, it would certainly be a disaster for them.

Someone who could make a Void God Realm expert serve him was surely not just a simple figure. Provoking that kind of existence should not be done.

Thinking about this, Emperor Balmond\'s eyes softened as he said. "Thank you, brother. My name is Balmond Bloodfallen. I\'ll talk with you later."

Yue Bo was slightly surprised by the sudden change of Balmond. \'This demon is quite smart. He must have realized Wine Master Jiu Shen\'s power through my words.\'

"My name is Yue Bo. Alright. I know you\'re in a hurry, so I won\'t take your time." Yue Bo smiled as he waved his hand.

Emperor Balmond nodded his head gratefully at Yue Bo. He then walked towards the store after adjusting his mood. Luckily, he came here in person. It would have been a catastrophe if he didn\'t come here himself.

When he stepped inside the store, Emperor Balmond scanned the room, feeling slightly anxious. From Yue Bo\'s words, his daughter should be talking to Wine Master Jiu Shen at this moment. He hoped that his daughter was smart enough to avoid making enemies with that man.

After scanning the room briefly, his eyes lit up when he noticed a familiar figure. He hastily moved towards her, but a sudden exclamation stopped him in his tracks.

"Your Majesty!"

Emperor Balmond glanced at the demon who had suddenly called out, making the poor fellow almost piss his pants under the emperor\'s penetrating gaze.

"At this moment, I\'m no emperor. I\'m just a customer who wants to buy a bottle of wine or two. Don\'t mind me, everyone." Emperor Balmond forced out a smile as he gestured for the startled crowd to move back to their seats. Emperor Balmond didn\'t want to cause a commotion here in Jiu Shen\'s store or he might think badly of him.

"Father Em- Your Majesty! Why are you here?" Princess Cornelia was stunned to see her father here. She thought that her father didn\'t want to involve himself with Jiu Shen at the moment, so she was shocked when she saw him.

"My good daughter, it\'s good to see you." Emperor Balmond took off the hood that covered his face, showing a ferocious-looking appearance. However, this terrorizing face was currently smiling amiably at his daughter. He no longer cared if his image was destroyed in public. It was much better than provoking Jiu Shen, who might be a more terrifying existence!

Cornelia could not believe her eyes when she saw her father acting like this. In her mind, he was strict and dignified. He never showed such a meek appearance in front of her. She was wondering what strange medicine he had eaten for him to show such a vulnerable personality.

Emperor Balmond ignored his daughter\'s questioning look and moved his gaze towards the human with long silver hair. He felt that this human was detached from the world with how he acted. There was an ethereal air around him, making him seem like a grand being.

This must be Jiu Shen.

Emperor Balmond immediately knew it in his heart. He dared not check the man\'s cultivation since it might incur his displeasure.

"Wine Master Jiu, I\'ve heard stories about you. It looks like those rumors were true." Emperor Balmond put on a smile, but that smile didn\'t truly fit his ferocious look.

"You must be Balmond. The emperor of the Great Demon Empire." Jiu Shen casually said.

"You! How dare you talk to father that way!" Cornelia stood up from her seat and pointed at Jiu Shen\'s nose as she snarled at him.

Looking at this scene, Emperor Balmond felt his heart freezing.
