Chapter 484: Yin Long
"You think that this Jiu Shen person might be connected to the founder"s teacher?" The last person was an old man with a thin and sickly look.
The old man with sword-like eyebrows shook his head and replied. "I don"t know, but that guy also uses a sword... There might be some sort of connection between them..."
"But the founder"s teacher has been dead for millions of years! This was announced by Celestial Emperor Lao Gou himself!" The fat old man interjected.
"You"re right... I may be wrong, but I will still investigate this person..." The elder with sword-like eyebrows said.
"Hey, Brother Yin Long! Are you sure about this? Although the Celestial Paragon Tower has stopped monitoring our movements, there still might be people observing us in secret! It will be dangerous if you come out alone!" The fat old man furrowed his eyebrows as he uttered those words.
"Brother Yin Long, Brother Gu San is right. To be safe, I"ll go with you..." The thin and sickly-looking old man muttered.
Yin Long shook his head immediately upon hearing his friends" words. "Brother Ka Wayan, I can protect myself, so you don"t have to go with me. Besides, there would only be Brother Gu San left here to guard the castle if you come with me. Just stay here while I investigate this matter..."
Ka Wayan and Gu San sighed upon hearing this. In the end, they could only reluctantly agree with him.
"Don"t worry. I, Yin Long, am a mid stage Heavenly G.o.d Realm expert. Even if I encounter someone stronger than me, I"m confident that I could escape from their grasp!" Yin Long a.s.sured his buddies with a confident look.
"I knew that we could not convince you once you have decided on doing something. Just be safe, Brother Yin!" The fat old man, Gu San, patted Yin Long"s shoulder.
Yin Long smiled and nodded his head. "I will!"

Jiu Shen was seated on a chair outside the dragon building. He was looking at Balmond and the others who were tending the garden.
Standing behind Jiu Shen was an old man dressed in plain white robes.
"Master, what are you planning to do with the remnants of the Shadow G.o.d Sect?" The old man suddenly asked to break the silence.
Jiu Shen took a sidelong glance at him and replied. "I don"t know, but they might be useful for Theia since they are still in the process of building a new sword tower. They lacked manpower right now because they couldn"t casually ask for someone to build the sword tower for them."
"Do you want me to send a Soul Puppet and bring them there?"
"Sure, but you have to make sure that their cultivation would remain sealed. Theia and the others are still too weak right now, so we have to be careful." Jiu Shen muttered solemnly.
Atlas nodded his head. "Yes, master! I will double-check everything before sending those people there..."
After saying those words, Atlas" figure vanished.
Jiu Shen stood up from his chair and went inside the dragon building. There were many customers inside, but no one was causing trouble. No one was brave enough to become enemies with the owner of this store! Besides, the wines here were very valuable and they didn"t want their chance to be here to disappear just because of a simple mistake.
When Jiu Shen entered the dragon building, his presence immediately caught the attention of everyone. They were now used to his presence, but they still couldn"t help but feel nervous every time he was here.
Jiu Shen ignored the customers and went to the cultivation hall. However, he stopped when he was already midway to the second floor. He stared in a certain direction and furrowed his eyebrows.
"A mid stage Heavenly G.o.d Realm expert?" He muttered to himself. He had just barely recovered his strength after overexerting himself in the fight against the Sect Master of the Shadow G.o.d Sect. He was not in his best condition to fight and if he was forced to use his peak stage Heavenly G.o.d Realm aura, it would be dangerous for him. Doing it forcibly would damage his foundations and his plan of reaching the Celestial G.o.d Realm would be jeopardized.
"Who is it this time?" Jiu Shen disappeared and reappeared outside of Hard Rock City. He could already do long-distance teleportation, so this wasn"t difficult for him.
Jiu Shen hovered in midair with an indifferent look on his face. He placed his hands behind his back as he waited.
Not long later, he saw the figure of an old man flying towards him with great speed! When he finally got a clearer look, Jiu Shen noticed that the old man didn"t reveal any malicious movements.
"This must be just another curious individual. Well, that saves me from a fight..." Jiu Shen thought to himself.
Yin Long had long noticed Jiu Shen, so he wasn"t surprised to meet him outside Hard Rock City. The only thing that made him feel shocked was the fact that he couldn"t sense this man"s cultivation.
"h.e.l.lo, friend! My name is Yin Long! I came here to visit the rumored dragon building here in Hard Rock City. I wonder if you could help find this place?" Yin Long let out a smile as he introduced himself briefly. He also stated his intentions in coming here to prevent the other party from thinking that he had ulterior motives.
Hearing this, Jiu Shen"s expression didn"t change. He wore the same calm look as he glanced at Yin Long.
"Oh? It appears that my wine store has become quite reputable. Pardon me for blocking your path. I am Jiu Shen. The owner of "The Immortal"s Wine Store" or the famously known dragon building. It"s a pleasure to meet you." Jiu Shen said with a smile.
Yin Long was pleasantly surprised when he heard this. "It seems like I don"t have to look around aimlessly. Brother Jiu Shen, could you take me to your store?"
