The Immortal's Wine Store Chapter 309
Advertisement
The whole sword tower was in an uproar when they heard about the Blood Sword Division, but what made them even more surprised was the fact that the sect master had actually appointed Yang Zenke as its division head.
Yang Zenke's eyes widened in disbelief. The sect master was actually giving him much importance that he even appointed him as a division head?
Yang Zenke could not help but recall his life before he met Jiu Shen. He was just a scrawny little kid with a weak and fragile body. He did not even dream of becoming someone great, but then a man suddenly came and changed his life. He told the scrawny kid to train twice as hard as his peers and the man even forced the scrawny kid into a hellish training.
Yang Zenke glanced at Jiu Shen with reverence and gratitude. It was all because of this man. If not for him, he might still be a servant of the imperial family.
Jiu Shen stared at Yang Zenke with a look of approval. The kid did not disappoint him indeed. He had transformed from a carp into a dragon! "Yang Zenke, take your new robes." He said to the young man.
"Yes, sect master." Yang Zenke accepted the robes and held it tightly. After he sensed its warmth, he promised in his heart that he would always serve as Jiu Shen's sword regardless of the dangers it may bring.
After that, Jiu Shen dispersed the crowd and went back to the sect master's room upstairs.
"Master, I have something to report to you." Ren Shuang appeared beside Jiu Shen and whispered to him.
"Speak." Jiu Shen calmly said.
"When you were still in the Divine Beast Continent, something happened to the new disciples." Ren Shuang did not dare to speak any more nonsense and immediately get to the point.

"Oh? Did something happen? What is it?" Jiu Shen was a bit curious, so he asked.
"Jimen Kang from the Crimson Sun Sect tried to capture Sylphie when she was outside of the sect. Luckily, the prince and the others were following her secretly and they were able to prevent Jimen Kang's group from kidnapping her. They also killed Jimen Kang during that time." Ren Shuang replied.
"I see. Someone from our sect suggested taking revenge for that, right?" Jiu Shen asked with a calm look as if he was already expecting this to happen.
Hearing that, Ren Shuang felt surprised in his heart, but he still nodded his head. "That's right. Elder Hu Xiandao and Elder Hestia led a few elders and a group of disciples to seek justice for Sylphie, but when they came to the Crimson Sun Sect's sect grounds, they met a Nascent God Realm expert. That expert is also the grand elder of their sect." At the mention of that, Ren Shuang felt a bit embarrassed. After all, he was responsible for the gathering of intelligence, but because of his overconfidence, he failed to discover the presence of the Crimson Sun Sect's Nascent God Realm expert.
Jiu Shen stopped in his tracks upon hearing that. He then glanced at Ren Shuang in disappointment, but he felt that this was also good. With this, Ren Shuang and the others would no longer dare to be complacent and they will also become more careful in handling matters. "You have shamed the reputation of our Heavenly Sword Tower. You actually approved the suggestion of taking revenge when there is no need to. The Crimson Sun Sect is merely a small sect in this mortal world. Wasting your time on them is not worth it at all."

Ren Shuang immediately kneeled when he heard Jiu Shen's words. He also felt ashamed of himself. "Sect Master, I admit my mistakes! Please punish me accordingly!"
Jiu Shen sighed in his heart as he shook his head. "Get up. Since you have already started this, then you must deal with it. As for that Nascent God Realm expert, bring him here. I'd like to see what kind of person he is for him to reach that realm in this continent even with its horrendous environment."
Jiu Shen became slightly interested in this expert. For him to become a Nascent God Realm despite the Profound Dragon Continent's unfair environment, this guy must be a genius.
Ren Shuang wanted to say that this expert was actually an old man, but when he saw Jiu Shen's interested expression, he swallowed the words down his throat. "Yes, sect master. I'll get this done right away."
"Leave." Jiu Shen waved his hand at him.
Ren Shuang vanished with a swoosh.
"Stinky human, I want to play with that Crimson Sun Sect. I promise I won't kill that Nascent God Realm expert. Hehehe." Ice suddenly said with a sinister smile.
Looking at her expression, Jiu Shen could only lament for the misfortune that is about to befall the Crimson Sun Sect.
Seeing Jiu Shen's lack of response, Ice elbowed him while putting on a cute look. "Come on, stinky human! I will just eat him... er I mean, I won't kill him. Hehehe."
Jiu Shen's face twitched, but he still nodded his head. He knew that he could not control this little troublemaker, so he might as well agree to her request. "Just don't kill him. I still want to see what kind of guy he is." He said sternly.
A hint of regret flashed in Ice's gaze for a brief moment. "Alright, I promise. Meow." She said with a pout before sprinting away from the scene.
"Sect Master Jiu, please forgive our child. She has been spoiled since she was young, so she acts like that." Ice's father said helplessly as he watched his daughter's running figure.
"Just let her be. At least this way, the Crimson Sun Sect's demise would be set in stone." Jiu Shen said indifferently. He was confident about the little girl's power. With her presence, even if there were three Nascent God Realm experts in the Crimson Sun Sect, she would still win.

'Bard's, warriors, tricksters, and idiots in equal measure. They wield the power of magic and song in tandem.

8 124Making a difference
Harry Potter FanFiction: Hannah Longbottom liked to watch the people who entered the Wizarding World via the small, walled courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron for a reason: During her not so long life, she had learned about three different boys who had entered the Wizarding World alone, leaving behind a life so horrible she could barely imagine. One of them, who became a friend of hers, had gone through great hardships to become a hero, one of the greatest wizards the Wizarding World had ever seen. One of them, who had been her teacher, had become cold and bitter, and no one had ever recognized what amazing talents he could have offered, until it had been too late. One of them, the monster she had helped to fight during the Battle of Hogwarts, had become the most dreaded, most dangerous, and most deadly man Great Britain had ever seen, and yet it could have all been different, if someone had just tried to make that difference early enough in that life, if he had not boarded the train to Hogwarts all alone. Already posted at Devianart and AO3, I've included a link to RoyalRoad on my profiles there.
