Chapter 236 - Alliance Head Situ
That day, the youths traveled to the Endless Forest together with some of Lu Sulan"s disciples. Leading them were Hu Xiandao and a few elders from the Ice Cloud Sword Sect.
The Endless Forest was a dangerous place infested by countless savage beasts, but Jiu Shen was confident that Hu Xiandao and the others would be able to protect the young kids.
It was a journey that would change these young elites and turn them into fearsome warriors!
Although it would have been a good idea to send them inside the Spirit World, Jiu Shen did not want to babysit them too much. He had also discussed with Hu Xiandao and the others that they would only aid the youths when they are already on the brink of death.
Inside the store.
"Master, are they really going to be alright? I mean, the Endless Forest is not just some random playground. Brother Hu and the other elders might be there, but they might still encounter something unexpected in that place." Can Ye said while looking at his master. He had grown fond of those youths after teaching them for some time, so he was quite worried about their well-being.
Jiu Shen leaned on his chair and took a sip from his wine bottle. He remained expressionless and seemed as if he had not heard Can Ye"s words.
Gulp. Gulp.
After gulping down a bit of wine, Jiu Shen placed his wine bottle back on the table. He then stared at his disciple with a nonchalant look. "If you are that worried about them, then just go there after the execution of Xue Tong." He said calmly.
Can Ye"s eyes brightened upon hearing that, but after recalling what kind of place the Endless Forest was, his expression dimmed down a bit. "I guess I have no choice, but don"t you have anything that you want me to do, master?" He asked.
Jiu Shen shook his head lightly and took another sip of wine from his wine bottle.
Suddenly.
Hm?
"This aura... It"s not the old man"s aura, then who is this person?" Jiu Shen stared confusedly at the distance with his spiritual perception. He could sense an aura that was as strong as the emperor"s father, but he could not recognize the owner of this aura. From what he could perceive through his spiritual perception, the newcomer seemed to be a bit stronger than the emperor"s old man!
"Ho. Things might get lively later on. If I"m not wrong, this guy should be Liuli"s father. He even brought some strong helpers with him. Not bad. Not bad." Jiu Shen uttered calmly, but his words sent s.h.i.+vers down the spine of Can Ye.
He was familiar with Liuli and he had even interacted with her quite a few times already. From their conversations, he could already tell that Liuli was not just a simple manager that his master had randomly hired. Not to mention the fact that he could not even sense that girl"s cultivation level, so when he heard from Jiu Shen that Liuli"s father was about to come, he could not help but feel slightly fearful.
"Master, do you want me to call Lord Ren and Young Miss Theia?" He asked, feeling a bit anxious.
Jiu Shen ignored him since he was focused on observing the newcomers through his spiritual perception. He saw more than ten individuals dressed in luxurious garments. Leading them was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his mid-forties. This man had short brown hair and thick sword-like eyebrows. He looked rather attractive for someone in his age.
"Mid stage Nascent G.o.d Realm... His talent is not that bad as well. However, why do they look as if they are about to break someone"s bones?" Jiu Shen mumbled silently.
At the entrance of the store, eleven individuals stood unmoving. They glanced at the store with a hint of interest, but all of them waited for the brown-haired middle-aged man"s command before taking another step forward. From a certain perspective, they seemed to be deeply afraid of this man...
"This store looks fancy outside and it also radiates a mysterious aura that even I could not comprehend. Just what kind of man did that little girl of mine involved herself with? Even his store is already giving me a dangerous vibe..." Muttered the middle-aged man while staring at the store.
"Alliance Head Situ, do you want me to go inside and search for the Young Miss?" One of the people behind him stepped forward and asked.
The middle-aged man shook his head and replied. "No need. All of us will go there to search for that girl. Let"s go."
He then strode forward with a confident expression on his face. His subordinates immediately trailed behind him after seeing him walk inside the wine store.
"Ha?!" The middle-aged man stopped in his tracks just right after stepping inside the store. He stared speechlessly at the spiritual plants placed neatly in different corners of the store.
The middle-aged man"s subordinates were bewildered by his actions, but when they followed his gaze, they also gaped in shock and surprise.
"That... That... True Heart Icy Sword Tree!? How come an extinct spiritual plant exists here?! And that one, isn"t that an Earth Origin Dragon Tree?!" One of the middle-aged man"s subordinates exclaimed with a dumbfounded look.
Ehem!
The middle-aged man cleared his throat and glared at his subordinates. "Don"t make me lose face! Remember our goal in coming here. We only came to look for that stupid little girl! Go search for her inside this G.o.dd.a.m.n store!" He muttered coldly.
"Yes, Alliance Head Situ!"
"Yes, Alliance Head Situ!"
His subordinates instantly sprung into action and searched every corner of the first floor. Some of them even went to the second floor to look for Liuli, and they were lucky enough that all of them had cultivation levels that exceeded the 7th-rank Emperor Realm or they would have been kicked out by Ren Shuang.
Unbeknownst to them, there was a pair of beautiful blue eyes looking at them with a cold gaze. A chilly glint flickered in those ocean-like orbs.
