Chapter 195 - Shocked Emperor Elyk

Jiu Shen stashed the Demon Crystal and the Blue Fire Lotus. The first item was prepared for Hu Xiandao, while the latter was prepared for his wine recipe.

"Master, how are you going to repair this damaged sword." Lu Sulan asked while looking at the sword box in her hands. Lying inside of this sword box was the damaged sword that Lu Sulan won in the auction.

Jiu Shen glanced at her calmly and explained. "It’s not that difficult to repair this sword. Just that, we need a few materials before I can repair this. The sword’s body isn’t broken, but the sharpness and flexibility of this sword were severely affected after being left to rust for thousands of years. We need some rare metals and other resources to sharpen this sword. As for its flexibility, I can refine it again using an array formation. I will give you a list of items later, and you have to gather them first before I can start repairing this sword."

Although the sword was indeed a true Origin God Weapon, it was greatly damaged and it would be difficult for an ordinary weapon maker to repair it, but to Jiu Shen, this wasn’t a problem at all! He also studied the art of weapon making in his past life and his attainment in it was even more remarkable compared to his alchemy proficiency.

"I understand, master."

Lu Sulan felt slightly disappointed when she heard that. However she knew that weapon making wasn’t as easy as what her master said. In the whole Profound Dragon Continent, there were only a few high-level weapon makers and all of them were respected individuals with profound levels of cultivation. It wasn’t easy to contact them, and one needs a lot of resources to pay in order to get them to make a weapon.

Lu Sulan was also shocked because one needs to be a weapon maker so that they can repair a damaged weapon, and the weapon in her hands wasn’t just an ordinary weapon, so the fact that her master could repair it was slightly surprising to her.

’So aside from master’s high cultivation level, and high mastery in alchemy, he is also a peak-level weapon maker? He even mentioned about array formation. Is he also an Array Formation Maker?’ Lu Sulan felt herself going dizzy with just the thought of it.

"Don’t think too much about this. You can begin searching for the materials after the martial arts competition is over. For now, you should focus your attention on this contest. You can see the progress of your disciples through their battles. This is a valuable opportunity for them, so you must not take this lightly." Jiu Shen said as he patted the shoulders of Lu Sulan.

"Yes, master."

Lu Sulan nodded her head in obeisance.

"Wine Master Jiu! Sect Mistress Lu! How’s the auction? Were you surprised about the auctioned items? Hahaha!" The familiar voice of Emperor Elyk resounded beside their ears.

The emperor had a wide smile on his face as he walked towards Jiu Shen’s group. Following behind him were three of his sons and his only daughter. The second prince wasn’t present since he excused himself before the auction ended.

Lu Sulan cupper her fists at the emperor as she greeted. "Your Majesty."

"No need for formalities, Sect Mistress Lu. By the way, where are you guys planning to rest for tonight?" Emperor Elyk asked with a smile.

Jiu Shen remained silent, so Lu Sulan answered for him. "Your Majesty, we will look for an inn and have our rest there."

"No way! That won’t do! How about this. Your group will come with us to the imperial palace and I’ll have my people arrange accommodations for you. What do you think?" Emperor Elyk said.

The crown prince and the third prince frowned when they heard that, but they didn’t voice out their thoughts. They had seen how their father reacted when the second prince opposed Jiu Shen, so they just remained silent and hid their disagreement inside their hearts.

Lu Sulan thought that it was a good idea because they could save a lot of time if they could come with the emperor inside the imperial palace, but she still turned to look at Jiu Shen to seek for his opinion. "Master, what do you think about this?"

Jiu Shen was silent for a moment before he eventually nodded his head. "Alright. We can go with you, Elyk, but I don’t want people disturbing our rest after we arrive in the imperial palace." He said indifferently. These words made the crown prince curse silently in his heart. He was already planning to make things difficult for Jiu Shen’s group once they were already inside the imperial palace, but it seemed like it wasn’t possible to do it now.

Emperor Elyk slightly furrowed his eyebrows. He could sense that Jiu Shen was intentionally saying those words, but he still nodded his head with a smile. "Don’t worry, Wine Master Jiu. I’ll have my imperial guards protect your rooms, so you don’t have to worry about this."

"In that case, I accept your offer." Jiu Shen said.

Emperor Elyk laughed heartily as he led everyone to the imperial palace. He felt flattered to have Jiu Shen in his home.

"Wine Master Jiu, these kids look familiar. Are they..." Emperor Elyk’s voice trailed off as he stared at the youths behind Jiu Shen. He wasn’t able to take a closer look at them when he went inside the fourth VIP room in the auction house since he was focused on his conversation with Jiu Shen. However, he could now see that the young men behind Jiu Shen were definitely part of the one hundred slaves that he gave to Jiu Shen!

"No need to guess. They are indeed among the batch of slaves that you brought to me." Jiu Shen replied calmly, but he felt a bit proud in his heart since he was the one who nurtured them from the very start.

Emperor Elyk was stunned and he could not help but take a clearer look at the youths. His eyes widened and he felt that it was incredulous. ’What the hell?! If I remember correctly, the kids I brought that day were yet to start cultivating. How come these kids are already this strong?! The strongest among their group is even at the early stage of the 4th-rank Knight Crusader realm! Just how did Wine Master Jiu train them...’

"This... After just a little more than a month, you were able to train these kids into elites of the younger generation. In the whole continent, I think only you are capable of achieving this, Wine Master Jiu." Emperor Elyk didn’t skimp on the flattery since he was too astonished about the growth of the youths.

The crown prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth princess were dumbfounded after hearing the emperor’s words. These young men only took a little more than a month to reach their current level of cultivation? Even the fifth princess and the fourth prince who were recognized as the most talented youths in the younger generation of the Silver Wing Empire needed several years to reach their present level of cultivation, so how could this not shock them?

Jiu Shen remained silent after hearing the emperor’s praise, but an imperceptible smile flashed on his lips for a second.
