The Immortal's Wine Store

Chapter 268 - Sylphie In Trouble

Ren Shuang tapped his space ring and took out the corpse of a person. The corpse had multiple sword wounds and bruises, but his expression remained calm even in his death. However, the most surprising thing about this person was that his corpse was still intact even after five years of being dead!

Jiu Shen stood up from his seat and walked towards the corpse presented to him. He then crouched and inspected the corpse using his spiritual vision.

From Jiu Shen’s perspective, he could see that this dead person’s true essence was actually that of a savage beast! And from the thickness of this true essence, it can be easily determined that this guy was a descendant of a savage beast with a noble bloodline.

"Indeed, this guy has a dragon bloodline in his veins. In fact, this guy’s dragon bloodline is thicker than that of Long Meili’s before I met her. However, this man still failed his tribulation lightning and he even regressed by two major realms and he only managed to stabilize his cultivation at the peak stage of the 7th-rank Emperor realm. He must have settled down in the late Iron Sand Kingdom after failing his tribulation lightning, but in the end, death still came his way... At least he was able to give his blood essence to his daughter Sylphie before he died..." Jiu Shen said after scanning the corpse with his spiritual vision.

If someone else could have heard his words, they would certainly be flabbergasted. He was actually able to tell what had happened to the man after a few casual inspections through his spiritual vision!

"Master, what do you want me to do with this corpse?" Ren Shuang asked after Jiu Shen concluded his inspection.

Jiu Shen glanced at Ren Shuang and recalled the look of the pitiful girl before he turned his gaze to the corpse beneath his feet.

"I’ll keep it myself. You may go back to your post." Jiu Shen said as he put the man’s corpse inside his space ring.

Ren Shuang bowed his head before he left.

Jiu Shen went back to his seat and muttered calmly to himself. "That girl must have experienced a terrible life at the hands of the Crimson Sun Sect. If she manages to pass all three assessments, I will help her achieve her revenge..."

Jiu Shen did not even bat an eye at the mention of the Crimson Sun Sect. It was as if this sect was nothing worthy of his attention.

Inside the World of Illusions.

Sylphie glared at the three youths in front of her. She was holding her worn-out sword tightly while sharply observing the actions of the three men.

"Little sister, just give us the tokens you have and we won’t hurt you." One of the three men who looked to be the leader of the three smiled at her reassuringly, but the two guys behind him failed to mask the mocking smiles on their faces.

Sylphie was very familiar with that kind of look. She had faced that kind of face for over five years inside the Crimson Sun Sect, so she did not let her guard down.

"Come on, brother! Let’s just cut down this stupid girl and be done with it. Inside this forest, we have no way of knowing how much time we have, so we must hurry in getting the tokens we need." A thin man behind the leader said with impatience. This guy was a peak 4th-rank Knight Crusader realm cultivator. Their leader was a 5th-rank Spirit realm expert and the remaining guy was also a peak 4th-rank Knight Crusader.

If a battle broke out, Sylphie who was only a mid-stage 4th-rank Knight Crusader would face great trouble.

She had no idea that all of them were inside a World of Illusion, so she was very worried about getting seriously injured.

Sylphie thought hard, but she could not find any solutions that could help her defeat these three men. The only option left for her was to escape from them, but could she really escape the pursuit of three cultivators who were stronger than her? In her current state, it was definitely not possible.

The leader glared at his buddy and glanced at Sylphie with a dark smile. "I apologize, little sister, but you forced us to do this. Get her!"

The two men behind the leader smiled evilly and immediately sprinted towards Sylphie with their weapons in their hands.

"Is it over for me? No! I have already come this far! I must not give up! This is nothing compared to what I experienced in the Crimson Sun Sect!" Sylphie shouted in her heart as she darted towards the two men who were moving speedily in her direction.

She did not want to come back to that sect! They did many terrible things to her and she could not imagine what would happen to her if they manage to capture her.

Although she was a slave of the Crimson Sun Sect, Sylphie still had a bit of free time. She used all of her free time to practice the sword techniques that her father had taught her during her childhood. She also cultivated secretly at that time and that was why she was able to reach her current realm despite the lack of resources.

Facing these two men, Sylphie calmly parried their attacks using her superior sword techniques.

Despite the difference in number and cultivation, she was able to fight the two men without being defeated. From this, it could be seen how much effort she had expended to practice her swordsmanship, but her talent also spoke volumes about her growth.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Sylphie could not receive the attacks of the two men head-on, so she could only expertly parry their attacks, but if this continues, she would have to consume more stamina.

’I can’t let this drag on! Not to mention that their leader is still here! Is it really over for me here?’ She cried out in her heart.
