The next day, Jiu Shen removed the invisible barrier that masked the dragon building from the outside world. He then stared at the group of young ladies behind him with a smile. They were already dressed in their new waitress uniforms.
"Are you guys ready?" Jiu Shen asked them when he saw their slightly nervous expressions. They've been familiarizing themselves with their new jobs, but they were worried that they might do something wrong.
The girls slowly nodded their heads despite their rising anxiety.
Seeing this, Jiu Shen smiled gently as he said. "You don't have to be worried. Nothing would happen as long as I'm here."
"Yes, Wine Master Jiu Shen!" The ladies regained their confidence when they heard Jiu Shen's words. They trusted this man so much since he had always exceeded their expectations. As long as he was here, even if the sky collapsed, they believed that Jiu Shen would be able to protect them.
"Guards, some people will cause trouble later. You know what to do for those types of individuals, right?" Jiu Shen glanced at the Soul Puppets. Their faces remained indifferent as they replied.
"Yes, Master!"
"Good! Go back to your posts and wait for our customers to come!" Jiu Shen said before going inside the dragon building. Now that he could cultivate, he didn't want to waste more time!
The new branch of The Immortal's Wine Store was now officially open!

"City Lord!" Serek came to the City Lord's office and shouted urgently. He saw something that made his nerves feel restless!
"What is it this time, Serek?" The City Lord frowned as he opened the door.
"City Lord, the old restaurant that Jiu Shen bought from me is now gone!" Serek exclaimed.
"What?! Did someone destroy it? Didn't I tell you to prevent others from provoking him?!" Corpse Lord was incensed when he heard Serek's words.
"No! No! The restaurant is indeed gone, but it was replaced by a new building! I can't explain it to you in detail, so you should take a look at it yourself. Once you see, you'll understand everything." Serek said with urgency.
The City Lord sensed the gravity in his tone, so he immediately went out of his manor and went directly to the location of the old restaurant. Serek followed behind him with a solemn look on his face.
When the two arrived, they discovered that there was already a huge crowd of people in the area. However, despite the number of people here, the City Lord could still see the magnificent dragon building beyond the golden fences.
"Bloody hell!" He unconsciously cursed when he saw the splendid sight.
"City Lord, you know why there is a huge crowd here?" Serek's voice echoed from behind him.
The City Lord glared at him and spat out coldly. "Just spit it out already!"
Serek immediately pointed at the garden right outside the dragon building. "Look at that garden. The spiritual plants in there, I could recognize that some of them are at the Supreme God-rank! As for the others, I couldn't identify them..." He muttered.
The City Lord furrowed his eyebrows as he scanned the garden filled with various kinds of spiritual plants. Even from his location, he could already sense the dense amount of true essence lingering in the air. Those spiritual plants were precious! He even saw one that he identified as a Heavenly God-rank spiritual plant! He could still remember it since he had seen it in an old book!
"How in the world did he manage to get that thing?!" The face of the City Lord changed after discovering this. That was a Heavenly God-rank spiritual plant! Possessing such a precious item was a guarantee that one would ascend to the higher realms of cultivation! And such a valuable spiritual plant was now before his eyes!
However, the City Lord quickly calmed himself. He wasn't stupid. How did Jiu Shen create this dragon building in just one night? Furthermore, how did he place those spiritual plants without being noticed by anyone? Could it be that there was a Heavenly God Realm expert behind Jiu Shen or is Jiu Shen himself a Heavenly God Realm expert? The more he thought about it, the more horrified he become. It was possible! That was the only explanation he could think of since it was impossible for a True God Realm expert or a Supreme God Realm expert to possess such precious items!
"Let's get inside! Quick!" Corpse Lord was still not sure about his guesses, so the only way to know the truth was to speak with Jiu Shen. He impatiently pushed everyone blocking his way and soon he was able to enter the golden gates.
Corpse Lord saw two warriors guarding the entrance and just looking at them was enough to scare him out of his wits! These two are Supreme God Realm experts! He was sure of it!
"Don't cause trouble inside the dragon building or someone will kick you out." Corpse Lord nodded his head seriously when he heard the warning. He then followed the marbled pathway leading towards the dragon building. For some reason, he felt nervous the more he walked closer to the building.
"The Immortal's Wine Store..." He saw a name plaque above the door of the dragon building. The store's name was written in calligraphy. The strokes were filled with the brilliance of a master and beauty.
Corpse Lord glanced one last time at the spiritual plants before reluctantly taking his eyes off of them. He then stepped inside the store as he muttered to himself. "A wine store this luxurious? Perhaps I'm right..."
Just the value of the name plaque alone was already enough to buy his entire manor! He wondered what kind of shocking sights he would see inside this dragon building.
Serek followed the City Lord with a dazed look. Everywhere he looked, everything screamed opulence! He felt that he was a farmer going inside the emperor's castle!
"I must be insane... This is a dream, right?" He muttered with a blank look.
