The Immortal's Wine Store

Chapter 60 - Troublemaker Becomes A Customer

Xue Tong found himself a seat in one corner and sat down with a sullen look.

Xue Tong went here after hearing the rumors about the wine store. He also thought that the people from the wine store were just intentionally hyping everything to gain a reputation for themselves.

He didn’t know that the rumors about them having a strong expert was true. Besides, she was also a very stunning beauty! Furthermore, even their waitress was also a very beautiful and graceful woman!

"Just what kind of person is the owner of this wine store for him to make these two lovely women serve him?" Xue Tong muttered to himself with a downcast look.

At first, he thought that the rumored wine master was merely a conman, but after everything that had happened, Xue Tong knew that the wine master was no ordinary person!

"Here are your wines, dear guests. Enjoy." Hestia smiled gently as she carefully put the bottles of wine and silver wine glasses on Xue Tong’s table.

Xue Tong recovered from his stupor after hearing Hestia’s captivating voice. He then gave her a forced smile and said. "Thank you, Young Miss Hestia."

Hestia flashed a smile before she walked away leaving behind a bewitching natural scent of a young woman.

Xue Tong and his three remaining guards closed their eyes in delight as their nostrils enjoyed the womanly scent that lingered in the air.

Xue Tong slowly opened his eyes and looked at Hestia’s figure for a moment before he turned to look at the wine bottle that he was holding in his hands.

"Let’s see if the rumors about these miraculous wines are true. If not, then I will demand compensation even if it means being thrown out of this store." He said with a dark look.

Although the wine aroma that remained in the air was quite appealing, he believed otherwise.

Xue Tong slowly pulled out the cork that sealed the bottle of Ables Blanc. With his strength, it wasn’t a problem pulling it out even without a corkscrew.

A strong oceanic smell that burst out of the wine bottle hit his face like a sea wave. As the smell seeped through his senses, his eyes widened in surprise. He couldn’t believe that such a pleasant smell came from the wine inside the bottle he was holding!

"This..." Xue Tong impatiently grabbed a silver glass prepared for them and filled it with the wine in his hands.

A shimmering liquid flowed down from the wine bottle as it continuously emitted a dense aquatic aroma.

After filling his glass to the brim, Xue Tong gulped down the contents with no hesitation.

"Gulp. Gulp. Gulp."

"This taste... Ables Oyster’s honey?! How luxurious is this!? Even our Xue Family rarely used Ables Oyster’s honey as an ingredient, but in this store, it is used in their wines as if it is just common honey!" Xue Tong exclaimed exaggeratedly.

He couldn’t be blamed either. Although their Xue Family was a merchant family, it was also rare for them to acquire honey from an Ables Oyster.

The three guards beside Xue Tong nodded their heads in agreement as they drank their share of wine with indulgence.

Boss Scar and his brothers smiled mockingly after seeing the stunned expressions of Xue Tong and co.

"Ah, I can see myself in them after I first went here. In fact, I was also skeptical about Wine Master Jiu’s wines because of their absurd prices. Good thing I tried it and didn’t make a lot of trouble that day or I would’ve been banned by Wine Master Jiu. If that happens, I will surely regret it." Liu Xiufeng said in a clear and reminiscent voice. He had already recovered from his drunken state after seeing the sorry plight of Xue Tong’s guard.

"You sound like you’ve been here for years, Old Liu. We haven’t even been customers here for a month yet." Boss Scar smacked the back of Liu Xiufeng’s head with a bit of force causing the latter to rub his head.

"Ow! Ow!" Liu Xiufeng grimaced while glaring at Boss Scar.

"Hahaha! Hahaha!" The other mercenaries around the table laughed after seeing the charade between the two. It was quite rare for them to spend their time like today in their line of duty. And after becoming Wine Master Jiu’s loyal customers, their brotherhood also became a lot stronger after drinking wines together.

Wines and friends are a great blend indeed...

A handsome man with long silver hair descended in front of the wine store. His expression was detached as if nothing could make a ripple in his emotion.

Behind him was a lady with icy blue hair wearing a white dress. She was looking curiously at the wine store in front of them.

"Master, is this your store?" Lu Sulan asked with a doubtful look in her eyes as she scanned the shabby-looking store that had a domineering name written in bold capital letters. ’THE IMMORTAL’S WINE STORE’

It was way different than what she had imagined. In fact, it wasn’t even close to what she had in mind. Although the wine store looked spotlessly clean, it was still plain to look from every angle.

Without turning his head, Jiu Shen nodded his head indifferently. "This is indeed my wine store."

After that, Jiu Shen walked towards his store while ignoring an unconscious man dressed in a guard’s uniform who was lying face-first outside the store.

Lu Sulan raised her eyebrows when she saw the man but she also chose to ignore him and just silently followed behind her master.

The moment they step inside the store, Lu Sulan felt her strength being somewhat constrained by an unknown force. It was as if there was an array formation meant to weaken everyone who steps inside the store.

Lu Sulan surveyed the store and she couldn’t help but gape in shock.

"Spatial manipulation?! But only 10th-rank God realm experts are capable of wielding the power of space! My master, is he perhaps a..." She had a horrifying thought in her head as she glanced at Jiu Shen with an even more worshipping look.

Jiu Shen ignored his disciple as he had already expected that kind of reaction from her. Perhaps only Jiu Shen would know that it was actually the system that had enlarged the space inside his store.

Lu Sulan lightly inhaled the lingering aroma of wines in the air with a sweet smile on her face.

"Although the store looked rather plain outside, the calm atmosphere inside the store is just like my master’s neutral and indifferent disposition. Now I’m beginning to like this store." She muttered to herself while looking at the pleased and smiling expressions of the customers inside the store.

But then she saw something in the corner that made her stop in her tracks.

"That small tree... I think I’ve seen that somewhere... Wait! Isn’t that the 9th-rank Earth Origin Dragon Tree?!" Lu Sulan covered her small mouth as she exclaimed with wide eyes.

"Oh, young lady, are you talking about Wine Master Jiu’s bonsais?" A customer who was seated near Lu Sulan asked her with a bewildered look on his face.

"What bonsai?" Lu Sulan asked with a blank look on her face.

"Wine Master Jiu has four of those bonsais. Aren’t they beautiful? They even looked like small coiling dragons. Hehe." The customer smiled kindly as he spoke.

"Four of them?!" Lu Sulan hurriedly looked around. Indeed, there were four Earth Origin Dragon Tree inside the store.

"Master mentioned that he has this. I thought he was just messing around... To think that he has four of it here. And he’s even treating them like random ornamental plants..." Lu Sulan’s lips twitched as she forced out a smile on her face.
