The Immortal's Wine Store

Jiu Shen hid behind the clouds with an amused smile on his face. "He has good eyes. That Fire Devil Fruit is indeed the most precious spiritual plant in my garden."

With his hands behind his back, Jiu Shen continued observing the scene with a mocking smile. "Hm, it looks like I finally found another sweeper for my garden. Yue Bo wouldn't be sad anymore..."

Meanwhile, Garland was walking calmly towards the Fire Devil Fruit. Although he looked normal outside, he was actually feeling nervous. He didn't know why he felt anxious all of a sudden, but he ignored his screaming instincts since he was already very close to his goal.

Garlan scanned the women guarding the garden using his spiritual vision. He also observed the store closely since Yue Bo might be around. When he sensed that only the Nascent God Realm women were around, a malicious smile covered his face. He dashed towards the Fire Devil Fruit with his fastest speed and grabbed it. He could already feel the fruit in his hand. It felt rather rough and heavy. Wait!

Garland opened his hand and he was stunned at what he saw.

It was actually a palm-sized rock!

A wave of terror surfaced in his heart. He then turned his gaze to check the surroundings. He could no longer hear the crowd discussing the tournament.

In front of Garland was a barren land filled with collapsed and dilapidated buildings.

A gust of hot wind blew, making him recover from his fear.

"This place... Isn't this the abandoned city right next to Morlon City?" Garland gulped in worry as he anxiously stared in every direction. The eerie silence unnerved him.

He swiftly calmed his heart and moved in a battle stance, preparing himself from the unknown."

How did he suddenly get teleported to this place? Even with his power as a Demon Emperor (Void God Realm), he couldn't achieve this feat. Then how did the other party teleport him to this place without him noticing anything? Yue Bo was definitely not capable of doing this since he was just a newly ascended Void God Realm expert. In that case, who was it?

Suddenly, a young and handsome face emerged in his mind. 'Could it be him?'

Jiu Shen was the only man he couldn't discern. He thought that the young human merely had a cloaking technique that masked his cultivation, but thinking about it now, he realized that his thinking was flawed.

'So that's why that old fart Balmond has been acting strangely lately! He already discovered Jiu Shen's power!' Garland felt like smacking his own face for his carelessness.

"Hey."

A calm voice suddenly interrupted his train of thoughts.

Garland fearfully turned his gaze and saw a young silver-haired human seated on a luxurious-looking chair. This human was even holding a bottle of wine as he looked at him with an amused look.

In front of this human was an ordinary table and a vacant chair.

Garland knew that he was truly fucked up this time. This Jiu Shen was a wolf in sheep's clothing! No, he is definitely a dragon in sheep's clothing!

"Do you prefer standing there like an idiot or do you want to join me in drinking wine?" The human asked him with a disdainful smile.

Garland felt his knees going weak under Jiu Shen's stare. The guy might be smiling at him, but it looked like an evil god's smile in his eyes...

After hesitating for a moment, Garland picked up his courage and sloppily walked towards the vacant seat. He then carefully sat as he looked down, not daring to meet Jiu Shen's gaze.

Looking at the nervous demon sitting in front of him, Jiu Shen almost burst into laughter.

"Actually, I currently need a sweeper for my garden. After all, Yue Bo is the only one cleaning it, so it must be tiring for him to do it alone. I'll forget what you did this time if you work for me." Jiu Shen said after gulping down his wine.

Hearing this, Garland almost stood up in fury. This guy actually wants him to clean his garden? Is he out of his mind?

Demons are innately stubborn and prideful. They would refuse to accept defeat under any circumstances. And as a demon himself, Garland didn't want to accept Jiu Shen's terms. It was beyond his pride to work as a sweeper for someone! He couldn't even imagine himself weeding someone's garden.

Veins protruded on his face as Garland clenched his fists tightly.

Looking at this, Jiu Shen calmly drank a mouthful of wine and said. "It looks like our negotiations have failed..."

Garland abruptly stood up and smashed the table in front of him.

Bang!

A thick cloud of dust covered the surroundings.

Garland was unsure of Jiu Shen's cultivation.

He couldn't discern it no matter how hard he tried to observe the human.

However, he was confident in his own survival skills. Even if Jiu Shen was way stronger than him, he was confident that he can escape this place!

Just as he was searching for Jiu Shen's figure, he felt a strong force on his shoulder, preventing him from moving. After that, a wave of heavy and archaic aura suddenly. burst from behind him, making him immediately fall to the ground.

Thud.

Garland kneeled in fear and he didn't even have the strength to lift his head. He could only stare at Jiu Shen's feet...

Jiu Shen took back his aura.

This time, Garland slowly lifted his head and saw Jiu Shen's calm face looking at him as if he was an insignificant creature.

Garland finally realized what true fear was. His heart was beating disorderly, hastening his blood pressure.

Jiu Shen walked towards the collapsed demon and slowly bent over to meet Garland's gaze.

"What about now? You should cha-"

The face of Jiu Shen who was about to offer a second chance to Garland suddenly changed into shock.

Garland collapsed on the ground with a frothing mouth. The whiteness of his eyes was now visible...

"Eh? Did I accidentally kill him?" Jiu Shen muttered in regret.
