Chapter 410 - Herald Lycan And Torgrim Stormhoof

The Immortal's Wine Store

Inside a grand hall, more than a dozen old demons were seated before a round table. Two of them who had higher cultivation levels were seated in the two most prominent seats. They were discussing something with solemn expressions on their aged faces.

"How come the Narda Principality returned the resources we provided them? What does this mean?" An elder with a ferocious wolf-head asked the surrounding elders in a cold tone. This person was the Demon Emperor of the Lycan Family, Herald Lycan. He was a mid stage Void God Realm expert!

A demon with a muscular physique furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this. He then glanced among the elders and asked them. "What's the current status of the Great Demon Empire? Why did something like this happen during our solitary cultivation?"

This muscular demon was the Demon Emperor of the Torgrim Family. He was a bit stronger than Herald since his cultivation level has already reached the late stage of the Void God Realm! His name was Torgrim Stormhoof!

The elders stared at each other for a brief moment before one of them gritted his teeth and answered with a hint of nervousness. "Demon Emperors, we are also unsure why Narda Principality suddenly returned the items that we gave them. We tried to extract more information from their representatives, but they refused to give an answer. However, we feel that their change in attitude might be related to a certain individual that suddenly came to Morlon City!"

The two Void God Realm powerhouses frowned as they stared at the elder. They waited for him to continue.

"During the two Demon Emperors' solitary cultivation, a mysterious human suddenly arrived in Morlon City. He miraculously created a blooming azure lotus building overnight and stunned everyone with its beauty. This human sells precious wines that can enhance the consumer's cultivation progress! Not just that, this human also has a garden with hundreds of rare and valuable spiritual plants! If my guess is right, the leader of the Narda Principality might have had a secret deal with this human."

Hearing this, everyone inside the grand hall thought that this might be plausible. Even the two Void God Realm experts were deep in thought. A mysterious human who sells wine? He has a garden that has hundreds of rare spiritual plants?

"Have you investigated this human and his force?" Torgrim Stormhoof asked as he eyed the elder.

The elder felt scared under his stare, but he still answered. "We sent multiple teams to investigate this human. We even sent a few Demon Lords (Nascent God Realm) to scout his store. And after several weeks of monitoring him, we still failed to discern this human's cultivation level. However, his subordinates are quite strong! We noticed the presence of a few Origin God Realm experts guarding his store and there was even a human gardener at the Void God Realm! If I remember correctly, this gardener's name is Yue Bo!"

Hm?

A Void God Realm gardener?!

The two powerhouses felt that they were hearing things, but seeing the elders nodding their heads, the two lapsed into a moment of silence.

"If he has a subordinate who is at the Void God Realm, this human has to be at least an expert at the mid stage Void God Realm or even at the late stage Void God Realm! To think that there is actually a living human who has reached this level of power! I thought all their Void God Realm powerhouses has already died of old age." Herald Lycan muttered in a solemn tone.

"Hmph! It doesn't matter if the Narda Principality has reneged on their promise! I have already broken through the late stage of the Void God Realm! I'm confident that I can beat someone on the same level as me! We will proceed according to the plan! We have already waited for several ten thousand years for this! No one can save the Bloodfallen Family, not even that human!" Torgrim Stormhoof slammed the round table, breaking it into smithereens!

Herald Lycan also smiled ferociously. "Brother Stormhoof is right! The plan should proceed as we discussed! I will breakthrough to the late stage of the Void God Realm in a few weeks. By then, who can stop our two great families?! Hahaha!"

Hearing his loud laughter, Torgrim Stormhoof also smiled. He then glanced at the elders and commanded. "Leave the human powerhouses and Balmond to us. Your objective this time is to assassinate the descendants of Balmond! Without them, the future of the Bloodfallen Family will be bleak!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Cornelia was practicing the set of boxing movements that Jiu Shen taught her. It was difficult and strenuous for her since she didn't have a good physical body foundation. However, after training according to Jiu Shen's teachings, Cornelia discovered that her physical body's strength has increased substantially. It won't be long before her body reaches the standard of a Nascent God Realm!

"This body strengthening technique is even stronger than our Bloodfallen Family's Ferocious Tiger God Art! And to think that he made this technique on the spot... Wine Master Jiu Shen is truly incredible!" Cornelia praised him with a look of admiration. Other than her father, he was the first man she admired.

Cornelia adjusted her posture according to the set of movements drawn by Jiu Shen. She had practiced it several times now so she was more proficient this time.

"My progress has slowed down. I think I need real combat experience to increase my progress! Hmm. Where should I go this time?" Cornelia thought to herself with a pondering look. From her memories, there was a huge forest near Morlon City. That place should have many high-level savage beasts!

She then gathered a few things and kept everything inside her storage ring. After checking her weapons and equipment, the succubus nodded her head with a smile. "I should leave in secret. According to Wine Master Jiu Shen, the Lycan Family and the Torgrim Family might be after my life..."

At the cover of the night, Cornelia left the imperial palace in secret.
