Chapter 377 - Cornelia Meets Jiu Shen
Cornelia swiftly calmed her restless heart. She was merely excited at the thought of meeting another Void God Realm expert other than her father.
"Handsome, are you the mysterious owner of this store?" Cornelia asked Yue Bo with a seductive smile hanging on her face. She slowly leaned closer to him, exposing her deep cleavage that could drown any man in ecstasy.
With a light smile on his face, Yue Bo appeared to be unruffled by her charms. He stared into her eyes as he answered with an amiable voice. "I'm merely an ordinary sweeper working here. If you are looking for the owner, Wine Master Jiu Shen is inside the lotus building."
Cornelia slightly frowned when she heard the reply. 'Am I wrong? Is he really just an ordinary sweeper? No. For a human, he didn't show any fear when he spoke to me.'
"Young Miss? Please excuse me. I still have to clean the garden." Yue Bo bowed gently at her and left with the broom in his hand.
Cornelia stared at his figure with interest. This average-looking human was definitely not normal. She secretly used her seductive arts on him, but it actually had no effects! If he was a normal human, he would have thrown himself at her, but no such thing happened. The only explanation was that the human was way stronger than her!
"Interesting! I will find out more about you soon, but first, let me see if the owner is truly inside this lotus building..." Cornelia muttered with a dazzling smile as she elegantly walked towards the wine store.
When she stepped inside the store, there was a sudden change in the atmosphere. The amount of true essence became denser and the space inside the building seemed to have become bigger. She was sure that it wasn't just a misconception. This was a high-level array formation that controlled space! That means, whoever made this lotus building was a top Array Formation Maker!
Cornelia's arrival inside the store made her the focal point of everyone's gazes. Lecherous stares were directed at her figure, but she merely ignored them. She was used to this already, so wasn't surprised by their reaction. Although she didn't show any change in her outward appearance, Cornelia was mocking these lowly beings in her heart.
Tap. Tap.
Her high heels made light tapping sounds as she slowly walked around the store. Wherever she passed by, she would leave a wave of tantalizing fragrance that made the customers inhale her scent greedily.
Cornelia Bloodfallen was a well-known figure in the Great Demon Empire, but only a few important people managed to see her appearance. That's why no one was able to recognize her this time.
The succubus princess toured around the store's first floor as if she was sightseeing. Many individuals had already noticed her seductive figure walking around, but no one dared to disturb or cause trouble for her. This also surprised Cornelia since every time she showed herself in public, there were always brave individuals who tried to strike a conversation with her. Some couldn't even control themselves after seeing her beauty and pounced at her with hungry eyes. Of course, the latter individuals were no longer alive in this world...
Suddenly, Cornelia stopped and stared at a human who was sitting calmly in a corner. His devilishly handsome face made her eyes light up.
This man was leaning on his chair with an expressionless look on his face. At the moment, he was holding a sleeping chubby white cat in his arms. Seated on either side of this man were two peerlessly beautiful ladies, each with their own charms. She even sensed that their cultivation levels were on par or even stronger than hers.
Looking at them, Cornelia smirked and proceeded to walk towards their group.
Theia and Long Meili noticed someone walking towards them. When they saw the seductive-looking succubus throwing amorous glances at Jiu Shen, their eyebrows knitted into a frown.
Cornelia chuckled when she saw the hostile gazes of the two ladies.
"Oh my! Don't look at me like that. I feel so scared..." She put on a scared look as she glanced at the two.
"Stay where you are if you don't want me to break your face!" Long Meili said as killing intent seeped out of her eyes. Theia's hand also rested on the hilt of her sword, prepared to strike if she saw this succubus acting weirdly. They both felt threatened when they saw her appearance.
Cornelia covered her mouth with her hands as she giggled coquettishly. She then stared at Jiu Shen and said in a cute manner. "Hey handsome, is this how you treat the guests of your store?"
Jiu Shen turned his gaze towards the unfamiliar-looking succubus. He acted as if he failed to notice the seductive arts purposely directed at him.
"Theia, Meili, you guys sit down. This young lady is the crown princess of the Great Demon Empire, Her Highness Princess Cornelia Bloodfallen." Jiu Shen said as he motioned the succubus to a nearby seat.
Cornelia was surprised that her identity was uncovered by this human. This was the first time they had seen each other, so how did he know her? She was full of questions, but she still put on the same seductive smile. With a hand covering her small lips, Cornelia winked at Jiu Shen. "Hehe. It seems like you are the mysterious owner of this store, little brother..."
Little brother?
Jiu Shen's calm face froze when he heard this title. He then laughed hard, shocking Long Meili and Theia who was seated beside him.
After Jiu Shen's laughter ceased, he stared at Cornelia with an impassive look. His handsome features made her blush instinctively. To hide her embarrassment, she looked away.
"Meili, go and get a bottle of Bejeweled Ocean Nectar for Princess Cornelia." Jiu Shen said.
Hearing that, Cornelia's smile turned even more vibrant.. "The mysterious owner Wine Master Jiu Shen is actually this generous."
