The Immortal's Wine Store

After witnessing the victory of Yang Zenke's group, Long Meili smiled contentedly. Although Sylphie's performance was lackluster compared to the rest of the group, she was certain that she could train Sylphie into becoming a much stronger cultivator. The moment Sylphie comes back to the Heavenly Sword Tower, Long Meili would immediately take her as a disciple.

At first, Long Meili did not take her seriously, but upon observing her for a few days, Long Meili was satisfied with the girl's character. With the dragon's bloodline flowing through Sylphie's veins, Long Meili was certain that the girl will experience massive growth once she begins training under Long Meili.

"Brother Han, take him with us. Make sure that he won't die along the way. Since these people are daring enough to capture one of our disciples, they should be prepared to face the wrath of the Heavenly Sword Tower!" Yang Zenke said in a cold tone which caused the others to feel a chill in their hearts. To think that the normally calm Yang Zenke would actually reveal such an overbearing aura. Although his current appearance was scary, this also made the group feel warm in their hearts. It was hard to find a fellow sect disciple that was caring enough to their own.

Han Sen nodded his head gravely at Yang Zenke. He then took out a pill from his space ring and forced the surviving subordinate of Jimen Kang to consume it. The guy tried to spit it out, but Han Sen shoved the pill directly to his throat.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

The man coughed heavily, but his complexion became much better after he consumed the pill. He glanced at Han Sen with fear. 'Young master, why did you have to provoke these people?'

"Brother Liu, Brother Zhu, please call the other disciples of our sect and tell them to come back to the Heavenly Sword Tower. It would be dangerous for them if they go back by themselves. There might be experts from the Crimson Sun Sect who will come here to investigate what had happened." Yang Zenke said in a grave tone.

Liu Mengdi and Zhu Ren nodded their heads in acknowledgment. They then swiftly went to the imperial palace without hesitation. The Crimson Sun Sect might be significantly weaker compared to the Heavenly Sword Tower, but the sect still had numerous experts.

"Let's go back to the tower. We must inform the elders about this immediately. War is bound to happen between our two sects!" Yang Zenke said as he led the group back to the Heavenly Sword Tower. All of them had solemn expressions as they walked away.

"Master, are we going back to the Profound Dragon Continent?" Theia asked Jiu Shen.

Jiu Shen who was sitting lazily on a chair glanced at Theia with a calm look as he replied. "Not yet. The Divine Beast Continent is not just known for the savage beasts living in it, but also because of the valuable spiritual plants that can be found here. How can we waste this kind of opportunity?"

Theia found his words reasonable. However, she also found it quite funny that her master had actually spoken such words when he was still lazily sitting on his chair.

The tigers heard their conversation and they could not help but glance at each other. Suddenly one of them went in front of Jiu Shen and bowed.

"Sect Master Jiu Shen, we have overheard your conversation about the spiritual plants. Although the Divine Beast Continent indeed has a lot of it, I must warn you about the danger that comes with it. There might be Origin God Realm savage beasts protecting these spiritual plants, so if you're planning to gather spiritual plants, please exercise caution." The tiger said solemnly.

Earlier, Jiu Shen had already discussed with the tigers that he was planning to bring them into the Heavenly Sword Tower and he also told them that they would become the sword tower's guardians. To this arrangement, the tigers agreed without hesitation. In fact, they were very happy to serve as guardians for Jiu Shen's sect.

Upon hearing the tiger's words, Jiu Shen merely nodded his head. He did not take his words seriously. He has the map of the entire Nuar inside his head and he was more familiar with the Divine Beast Continent than these tigers, but he was too lazy to explain all of this.

Jiu Shen stared at Ice who was still chatting happily with her parents. From the looks of their faces, it might take long before they grow tired of chatting.

Jiu Shen abruptly stood up from his seat and said. "I will leave for a moment. As for you guys... Just stay here and wait for my return. I might be gone for a day or so, but you don't need to worry. I will just pluck a few spiritual plants to increase my collection."

Theia and the tigers were speechless at his words. Perhaps only Jiu Shen would treat high-level spiritual plants as collection materials... Of course, he might be joking as well, but from his indifferent expression, it looks like there is some truth to his words...

"Master, do you want me to accompany you?" Theia asked as she looked at Jiu Shen.

The man shook his head lightly and replied in a calm voice.

"There is no need for that. Just wait here for me with the tigers. Also, take this with you. You'll know what the contents of this ring if you check it later." Jiu Shen said as he handed a space ring to Theia.

She accepted the space ring and absentmindedly nodded her head at her master. Although she was quite reluctant to be away from him, she could not bring herself to force her master. She might only be a burden to him if she follows him to search for spiritual plants. After all, the Divine Beast Continent houses billions of strong savage beasts.

After Theia took the space ring, Jiu Shen ripped the space open and leaped inside the rift.
