The Immortal's Wine Store

Jiu Shen came out of the Spirit World with Cornelia. The succubus kept on looking at him with peculiar eyes even after leaving the Spirit World.

Noticing his return, Theia walked towards him and held his hands. She ignored Cornelia's jealous look and continued holding Jiu Shen's hands.

"I completed my breakthrough, but I still have some resources with me. Take some for your cultivation and give the rest to the others." Jiu Shen patted Theia's head before giving her a hunch of cultivation resources. Some of which were pills while the others were unused God Stones. He didn't give his remaining Fruits of Cultivation since he needed it more than them.

At this moment, Jiu Shen still had three Fruits of Cultivation. With this amount, he would be able to reach the late stage of the Void God Realm!

Theia took the cultivation resources and kept them in her space ring. She then glared at the succubus who was standing behind Jiu Shen. After warning the succubus with her eyes, Theia left in satisfaction.

"Cornelia, once your father leaves the Spirit World, you will be crowned as Empress. There shouldn't be any opposing force left after your brother's death, but you must make sure that nothing goes wrong. Observe the nobles and the officers for the time being. If you see any unusual behavior, report it back to me." Jiu Shen said as he sat down on a chair.

Cornelia felt slightly uncomfortable being ordered by Jiu Shen, but when she recalled her father's words and that traumatizing tribulation in the Spirit World, she swallowed down her misgivings and nodded her head obediently.

"There shouldn't be any hidden forces left that could threaten my ascension to the throne. However, there are indeed some members of the noble families that are against me becoming the empress. They are Torgrim Family and the Lycan Family. A few weaker nobles are also supporting these two families in the shadows. Initially, they planned to support my brother and make him a puppet emperor, but with Amon's death, there should be changes in their plans." Cornelia reported with a glint in her eyes. She had been observing the actions of the nobles throughout the years and she had long since discovered their plans.

Hearing this, Jiu Shen leaned on his chair and motioned the succubus to sit on the chair opposite him. "I thought your Bloodfallen Family has a tight hold in the Great Demon Empire. It seems like I have overestimated you..."

Cornelia felt ashamed upon hearing his words. Their Bloodfallen Family was strong, but they could not stop the greed of the other noble families.

"Hmph! Even if they decide to rebel, so what? Father alone is enough to squash them to death!" Cornelia muttered in disdain.

Jiu Shen calmly opened a bottle of wine and took a small sip. He then glanced at the salivating Cornelia and said with a mysterious tone. "What if the Narda Principality is secretly helping those nobles?"

Cornelia's eyes widened and she thought deeply. It was indeed possible, but was the Narda Principality strong enough to fight against her father? Did they have an expert at the Void God Realm?

"I haven't heard of them having a Void God Realm expert, but even if they do, he shouldn't be as strong as father, right?" Cornelia stared at Jiu Shen inquisitively. She wanted to see if this man knew something.

According to her father, he was now a subordinate of Jiu Shen. He even dragged the whole Bloodfallen Family to follow Jiu Shen. If they ever needed Jiu Shen's help, he would be there, right? She didn't know...

Jiu Shen grinned when he saw the succubus looking at him like that. Did she really think that he couldn't discern what she was trying to do? Naive!

"Not long ago, I killed a demon named Garland. He was a Void God Realm expert from the Narda Principality. I haven't investigated them yet, so I'm not sure if they have more experts at the Void God Realm. However, I'm certain that one of the noble families might give you a surprise." Jiu Shen chuckled. He already knew everything about the Great Demon Empire, including the cultivation levels of everyone living within. Some time ago, he discovered that a noble family had actually hidden its true power to the world!

"What do you mean?" Cornelia felt her heart skipping a beat when she hears Jiu Shen's words. There seemed to be a hidden danger near them!

"I will only tell you once your father comes back." Jiu Shen replied calmly.

Cornelia pouted, but she didn't press him further. Although she felt a bit anxious, she could still wait. Besides, Jiu Shen was now standing behind their Bloodfallen Family. With his power, he could even have the whole world of Nuar!

***

Outside the Great Demon Empire, ten thousand miles up north was the territory of Narda Principality.

Hegante City, the capital city of Narda Principality.

At the very center of this prosperous city was a towering structure that looked like a giant medieval castle.

"Demon Empress Ganda, I want to ask if Demon Emperor Garland came back here?" Lou Baiqing asked nervously as he kneeled in front of a figure draped in fiery red robes.

This demon had a human-like appearance. She had a perfectly sculpted face and refined facial features. Her long red hair touched the ground and swayed every time she moved her head. There was also one blade-like horn on her forehead that told everyone her demonic origins.

She didn't have Cornelia's seductive aura, but just her beauty alone already surpassed her by a dozen times!

This woman was Ganda, the leader of Narda Principality. No one knew about her other than the top figures of the Narda Principality. That was also why she was able to remain hidden and unknown after all these years.

"He's not here." A soul-stirring voice came out of her mouth.

Lou Baiqing's face fell as he muttered. "Then he should be dead now...."
