Hu Xiandao went to the Immortal's Wine Store together with five elders of the Heavenly Sword Tower. Behind them were dozens of elite disciples who radiated an intense aura that covered the streets of Beltran City. Even the passersby were stunned when they saw this intimidating entourage.
At this moment, the Heavenly Sword Tower's fame had already spread far and wide, so when the crowd discovered the black robes that these people wore as well as the emblem on their c.h.e.s.ts, all of them immediately made way for this large group.
"That's the emblem of the Heavenly Sword Tower! I saw it during the official establishment of the sect!"
"They must be the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower, but where are they planning to go? From their solemn faces, I think they are planning to attack someone."
"Look! The man leading them is Hu Xiandao. He was just a crippled barbarian a few months ago, but he had received the aid of Sect Master Jiu and was given the chance to regrow his arm after he consumed Sect Master Jiu's miraculous pill! Now, Hu Xiandao is an elder of the Heavenly Sword Tower. His strength has also increased by leaps and bounds under the guidance of Sect Master Jiu."
The crowd discussed enviously as they stared at the Heavenly Sword Tower's entourage. It hasn't been long since the establishment of the sect, but it was already crowned as the strongest sect in the whole Profound Dragon Continent. Of course, the reason for that was because of the existence of its incredibly mysterious and strong sect master.
With their heightened senses, Hu Xiandao and the elders heard their words. They also felt a bit proud and lucky after hearing the crowd's discussion.
Meanwhile, the new disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower could barely cover the smiles on their faces. Before they became disciples of the sect, they were not even that famous, but after becoming disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower, they received the envy and admiration of the whole Profound Dragon Continent. After all, the sect had a strict requirement, and only a few hundred managed to become disciples.
"I can't believe that our sect is actually this famous." Liu Mengdi muttered in surprise after witnessing the crowd's respectful expressions.
"Hmph! Of course, our sect is famous! Who do you think is leading our Heavenly Sword Tower!" Princess Sylvia said with a smug look.
"Is it really alright for you guys to come with me to the Crimson Sun Sect? The sect even mobilized the elders to help me in my revenge." Sylphie was feeling mixed emotions about what was happening. She was happy that she had finally found her new home, but she also felt ashamed that she had implicated the sect with her personal vendetta.
Jon who was walking beside her smiled and chuckled. "Junior Sister Sylphie, you don't have to be worried. We came here of our own volition because we want to help you. As for the sect, it has just been established for less than a month and the people are still unaware of the sect's bottom line. For instance, the Crimson Sun Sect thought that our Heavenly Sword Tower would remain indifferent about your story, but looking at this, they certainly made the worst decision."
Prince Dante and the others nodded at his words. At first, they also thought that the sect would not directly aid Sylphie in her matters, but the reaction of the elders surprised them. The higher-ups were even willing to bring Hestia into this endeavor.
All of them knew who Hestia was, but they were unaware of her true power, but for the sect to have such a high amount of faith in her power, she should be strong enough to contend against the Crimson Sun Sect's upper echelons. Just the mere thought of meeting her excited the new disciples. The only exceptions were the regular customers of the Immortal's Wine Store who had already met her many times.
"Brother Zhu, can you tell me more about Elder Hestia? You guys are citizens of the Silver Wing Empire, so you should know more about her. Can you tell me what is special about this elder that even Elder Hu Xiandao has to be this excited in meeting her?" Jon turned his head and asked Zhu Ren.
The group had already become friends after becoming disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower. The events earlier had also solidified their friendship.
Zhu Ren was silent for a moment before he replied. "I don't really know much about Elder Hestia, but I do know that she is one of Sect Master Jiu's personal assistants. When Sect Master Jiu only had the Immortal's Wine Store in his name, he only had two people with him. One of them is Elder Hestia."
After hearing his answer, realization dawned on Jon. "I see. Since she is one of Sect Master Jiu's first subordinates, her cultivation level must be profound. Wait. You mentioned that Sect Master Jiu has two subordinates during that time, then who is the other one?" He asked as he looked at Zhu Ren.
However, Jon only saw Zhu Ren's face twitching when he asked that question. It was only a few seconds later did the latter reply with a strange tone. "You have already seen her. It is Elder Theia."
Hearing this, Jon was dumbstruck. "That woman?!" He exclaimed.
Seeing his reaction, Princess Sylvia snickered.
Just then, the group suddenly halted. When they looked in front of them, they saw a majestic building with intricate design. There are dragons and phoenixes drawn on the building's wall. It looked lifelike and imposing, making the new disciples feel breathless. After seeing this building, they felt that the headquarters of the other families and clans looked like trash in comparison.
"Everyone, we have arrived. In front of you is the Immortal's Wine Store that was personally established by our Sect Master Jiu Shen. Sold inside this wine store are blessed wines that can promote fast growth in cultivation, but we are not here to drink wine, so hold yourselves back at this monent." Hu Xiandao said to the disciples.
"Wait for me as I discuss with Elder Hestia inside." He added before he went inside the wine store.
The disciples were in awe of the wine store and they became even more fascinated with it after hearing about the wines sold inside. After all, a wine that could help a cultivator enhance their cultivation is rare and valuable.
"So the rumors about the wines sold in this store is actually true?! Incredible!"
"If we're not here for official matters, I would have already gone inside the store and ordered ten bottles of wine."
"What do you know? The wines inside this store are not just some random cabbage sold in the streets. There is a limit given to the customers according to their strengths. As for you, you might only be able to drink the store's Mystic Jade and Ables Blanc."
The disciples discussed excitedly. All of them were eager to try the effects of the said wines, but they did not dare go inside the store. Everyone knew that Elder Hu Xiandao was discussing something with Elder Hestia and it would be a bad idea if they angered the two of them. Anyway, they could just come back to the store some other day.

Inside the store, on the second floor.
"Elder Hu, it has been a while. It seems like you have already adjusted with your new arm." Hestia said with a warm smile.
Hu Xiandao smiled at the woman in front of him and was shock to discover her sudden increase in strength. It has only been a few months since they had last met, but she had already become stronger by leaps and bounds.
From the aura that she possesses, she must be nearing the peak stage of the 9th-rank Saint realm! She was almost as strong as Theia now!
Hu Xiandao could not hide his surprise. "Elder Hestia, it has only been several months since we last met, but you are already much stronger than me." He said in admiration.
Hestia smiled upon hearing his praise. She then changed the topic. "Elder Hu, you have come here with a few elders and disciples of our sect. From the looks of it, you are about to go on a mission to attack someone."
"Indeed. It is as you say, Elder Hestia. I have received the order to eradicate the Crimson Sun Sect!" Hu Xiandao said fiercely.
Hestia's eyes flashed for a moment when she heard that. She was already trying to guess what the Crimson Sun Sect had done that it actually made the Heavenly Sword Tower mobilize some of its elders and disciples to attack it, but whatever it was, she would definitely side with Jiu Shen.
"I see. You must be here to seek my help, right?" Hestia asked with a smile. When Hu Xiandao saw her stunning smile, he suddenly felt a chill running down his spine.
"What a strong killing intent!"
