The Immortal's Wine Store

Chapter 501: Sword God Jian Wang?

Chapter 501: Sword God Jian Wang?

'Who is he?' Domas muttered to himself as he entered the dragon building.

The place was extremely luxurious, but Domas wasn't as surprised this time. He had already expected something like this especially after he saw the medicinal garden outside.

From the ceiling down to the floor, everything was made from precious materials. He could tell it with just one look!

"These materials... They aren't of Heavenly God-rank..." He whispered after he recognized the worth of everything inside the dragon building.

He was already a late stage Heavenly God Realm expert, but he could not even discern that human's cultivation.

Domas turned his gaze towards Kadhar and frowned. "Do you know anything about that human?"

This time, Domas regretted taking things too lightly. He should have investigated everything carefully before he came here, but it's too late for that now.

Kadhar's expression turned heavy as he replied. "You mean the owner of this store? His name is Jiu Shen. I don't have a lot of information about him... but this guy... he is an expert in swordsmanship! And his wines-"

"I don't care about his wines... Wait... Did you say Jiu Shen?" Domas' expression turned grave all of a sudden.

'Jiu Shen... No, it's not him... That guy's been dead for millions of years... According to Lord Berith, Jiu Shen was trapped and tortured by Celestial Emperor Lao Gou inside the God Sealing Tower, so it should be impossible for him to be that person...'

'He possesses a wine store made from Celestial God-rank items. He is an expert in the sword... There is only one man who fits this description other than the late Jiu Shen... Sword God Jian Wang... Is he Jian Wang?! The man recognized as the strongest in all realms?!' There was a trace of fear in Domas' eyes when he reached this conclusion.

"Lord Berith, it looks like we stepped on dogshit this time..."

It took him five seconds to recover from his fear. He then glanced at his subordinates and said with a grim look. "Let's go back to the base! I have something urgent to report to Lord Berith!"

"But what about the mission?" Someone asked with a confused look on his face.

"Mission? What I'm about to report is more important than the mission! Let's go!" Domas glared at the man.

Kadhar frowned when he heard Domas' words. He grabbed Domas' shoulder and asked. "Lord Domas, what about Elder Hadji's death? Are you not going to do anything about it?!"

Domas' face became frosty as he turned his gaze towards Kadhar. "Since the Winged Devil Race is our subordinate race, I have one piece of advice to you guys. Stop your investigations before it's too late!"

After saying those words, Domas went out of the dragon building with his subordinates following behind him.

Meanwhile, Kadhar and his party could only stare at them in confusion.

'Why did Lord Domas suddenly leave without even investigating? Did he discover something about the owner? Then does that mean Elder Hadji's death would be for nothing?!' Kadhar gritted his teeth in anger.

"Elder Kadhar, what should we do now?"

Kadhar sighed weakly and responded. "Let's go back to the territory and report this to the Leader."

From Domas' actions earlier, he could tell that something was wrong with the owner of the wine store. He had to inform their Leader about this.

***

Outside the store, Jiu Shen who was reclining lazily on his chair suddenly opened his eyes. He saw Domas and the other Dark Devils leaving the dragon building in a hurry. "They're leaving already? It wasn't even a minute since they entered... What do you think, Atlas?"

The old man standing behind Jiu Shen also saw the Dark Devils going out of the wine store. "Perhaps they discovered something..." He said in a whispering voice.

"Discovered something?" Jiu Shen smiled upon hearing that. He then stood up and kept his chair inside his space earring and said.

"Atlas, stay here for a week and report to me immediately if they come back."

"Yes, master!" The old man replied with a slight bow of his head.

***

A day later, in the territory of the Dark Devil.

"What did you say?! You think the owner of that wine store is Sword God Jian Wang?!" Berith's eyes widened as he stared at Domas with incredulity.

Who is Jian Wang?

He is one of the three Celestial Emperors and the one recognized as the strongest man alive!

The servants and guards who were inside the room overheard Berith's outburst and they could not help but feel stunned.

Berith glared at them and bellowed. "All of you, get out!"

Everyone immediately left the room when they heard Berith's roar.

This time, only Domas and Berith remained inside the room.

Domas was silent for a moment before he answered. "I'm not sure as well... According to the Winged Devils, the man calls himself Jiu Shen, but there is no way that guy is still alive. You told me that he was killed by Celestial Emperor Lao Gou millions of years ago. Isn't Celestial Emperor Jian Wang known for being mysterious and unpredictable? Although I'm not a hundred percent certain about my guess, it is still plausible."

Berith nodded his head gravely upon hearing Domas' deduction. "If you're right... Does that mean the wine store is owned by Celestial Emperor Jian Wang himself? If that's the case, what is his connection with the God Sword Region?"

Domas frowned and shook his head. "We didn't encounter Yin Long or anyone else from the God Sword Region when we went there. Lord Berith, I think we should not meddle too much in this anymore. If that guy is Celestial Emperor Jian Wang, we would be in trouble if we cross blades with them."

Berith slammed the table in front of him.

Bang!

"Dammit! Who knew that those Winged Devils would stumble upon this discovery. Luckily you noticed it right away."

"What should we do about the Winged Devils? If they do something, we would also be implicated." Domas stared grimly at Berith.

"Get rid of them!"
