Chapter 647: The Immortal Demon Kingdom
"My wine isn't good enough?"
"Hmph! In the past, there were very few people in the entire Immortal Realm who were qualified to drink my wine, and now they are being evaluated like this by some greenhorn, really..."
The old man's beard bristled with anger, but he only got angry for a moment before shaking his head.
In the past, if anyone dared to speak ill of his fine wine in this way, he would never have let it go; it was an intolerable offense!
But for now, whatever.
Speaking of the past...
Forget it.
That was a long time ago. He is no longer in the Immortal Realm, nor is he the renowned powerhouse he once was. Now he is just a wine seller trying to make the most of his remaining lifespan.
"...Let me see what you, you sharp-tongued brat, can come up with."
The old man glanced at the jar of wine Gu Heng had placed on the table, then disdainfully picked it up. Fine, since the other party thought his wine was no good and kept a jar for himself, the old man wouldn't hesitate to give his opinion and see if this arrogant young man was really as good as he boasted.
Uncork the wine.
The rich aroma emanating from it almost made the old man's skull pop out.
"Good wine!"
Just smelling the aroma, the old man couldn't help but exclaim in praise!
The aroma of the wine alone stimulated his entire body, as if a strange power was flowing into his battered body.
The old man eagerly raised his head and drank it down. After taking a big gulp, his eyes shone as if he were holding a treasure he had never seen before. He muttered to himself, "This wine...this wine is no ordinary thing!"
"I never imagined that after I became the Immortal Emperor, I would devote myself to studying the brewing methods of the four realms of Immortal, Ancient, Nether, and Demon. I thought that the brewing method I created was unmatched by anyone else in the world!"
"Turns out, there are still experts!"
The old man stared intently at the wine jar in his hand.
Then he made a decision.
No!
As the dignified "Immortal Emperor of Wine", since he became famous for brewing wine, how could he tolerate being inferior to others in the art of brewing wine?
I took another sip.
Immortal Emperor Jiu Qiong strode to the back of the tavern, where he closed the door to the dilapidated brewing area and began his own "breakthrough."
We can't lose to that "young punk"!
……
After Gu Heng had been gone for a long time, he realized that he hadn't asked the old man how far away Twilight Moon City was.
But he silently continued northwest until nightfall, when he finally saw the outline of another city.
To know.
I was wearing the Swift Boots, and yet I've been walking for so long.
The places we just passed through could probably be called no man's land.
Along the way, Gu Heng didn't see any other cities or people. He occasionally passed through a few small towns, but they were also mostly deserted.
The only thing worth mentioning is that the scenery in this Lesser Mystic Realm is indeed more beautiful than that of the Mystic Realm. After all, it is a world capable of nurturing immortal-level cultivators, and strange celestial phenomena can be seen everywhere.
Gu Heng still finds her very interesting.
As he approached the city gate, this time there was no light shining on him, but there were soldiers guarding the city, and more people were entering the city. The soldiers only glanced at him and then ignored him, so Gu Heng entered the city without any trouble.
But once inside the city, Gu Heng realized something was amiss.
The city streets were bustling with people, far more lively than the so-called "Sixth Soul City" he had just been to. But he sensed that these people didn't seem to be entirely human...
They have characteristics of the demon race!
Fox ears, cat tails, snake eyes, and some that simply look significantly different from humans...
At first glance, most of the people on the street were demons!
"Did I go to the wrong place...?" Although no one was deliberately watching him, Gu Heng's impression of the demon race was not good. After all, the relationship between the demon race and humans was very bad, which was common knowledge in the Xuan Tian Realm. Moreover, the great war that the demon race had caused a few months ago had also bothered him a lot.
It's not that living in the desolate city was unpleasant, but Gu Heng was essentially forced to move away from Yunling City.
However, here, it seems that there is no barrier or hatred between the demon race and humans; everyone just goes their own way.
Is this Twilight Moon City?
When Gu Heng entered the city, he still didn't see a signboard, so he followed his old method and found a restaurant that looked luxurious enough, intending to ask for some information while ordering some food and drinks.
This restaurant was also run by the demon race, and the waiters were all incredibly strong, hairy giants. Gu Heng figured they must be from the bear race...
What would you like to order, sir?
"I want a private room where I can drink alone, and I want the best food and drinks you have here. As for what the best is, I've never been here before, so it's up to you."
Gu Heng took out a handful of spirit stones.
He now only hopes that the currency used for circulation among cultivators in the Little Mystic Heaven Realm is also spirit stones, otherwise he will have to spend some treasures from the Ancient Secret Palace.
Fortunately, the burly waiter saw the spirit stone and his eyes lit up with joy. He then respectfully led Gu Heng to a small room by the window.
"Please wait a moment, sir, it will be here shortly."
Gu Heng sat down by the window, and soon, fine wine and dishes were served.
"Wait a moment, I have some more questions to ask."
Gu Heng called out to the waiter who was serving the wine and dishes and asked, "Is this Twilight Moon City?"
"Twilight Moon City? No, that Twilight Moon City is the largest city in our 'Twilight Immortal Demon Kingdom'. If you want to go there, you'll have to go northwest from Demon Cloud City." Gu Heng nodded, indicating that he had made a mental note of it.
The Immortal Demon Kingdom?
The name itself clearly indicates a strong connection to the demon race, but since he wasn't a native of the Little Mystic Heaven Realm, he knew nothing about it.
Immediately, he threw out a large bag of spirit stones.
Faced with such a generous customer, the bear-like waiter was naturally all smiles and could even say a few more words.
"Is this your first time visiting the Twilight Immortal Demon Kingdom, sir?"
"Yes."
"In that case, please keep this map safe."
The waiter took out a map.
Gu Heng was even more satisfied now; spending a lot of money should result in such thoughtful arrangements!
"Please enjoy your meal."
The waiter took the bag of spirit stones and left. A sinister smile then appeared on his face.
Well, it's been a long time since this place has seen such a foolish and rich guy, and he's even an outsider who knows nothing about the Twilight Immortal Demon Kingdom!
I just checked out that guy's strength carefully, and he's no threat at all. He's practically the perfect target to rob!
Quickly tell the buddies, we're having a big feast tonight!
Although humans and demons coexist in this Immortal Demon Kingdom, and cannibalism is a crime explicitly forbidden by the Nine-Tailed Immortal Venerable, what does it matter if they eat an outsider?
……
Inside the room, Gu Heng put away the map and was just about to start eating when...
A fragrant breeze suddenly blew past the windowsill next to him. Gu Heng had just caught a whiff of the scent when he noticed a beautiful young girl sitting on the stool next to him.
Behind her, a fox tail was slowly swaying.
"Um... young lady, is there anything I can help you with?"
Gu Heng was caught off guard.
Damn, where did this fox spirit come from?
