Hearing the mysterious Woman's curiosity Ma Ning Could not help but tremble, he did not want to let this matter out but it looks like he had no choice. He could not hide anything from the woman in front of him.
He had tried and failed! Miserably!
The woman merely used a single move to deal with him. The next thing he knew was that his face was planted in the ground. He could still feel the pain in his old bones.
"It did not sell because I raised the price to 100,000 spirit stones. I wanted to save this place for you especially but who would have thought that some rich boy would be willing to fork out the money like it was nothing."
The old man rambled with a little venom in his tone, honestly the woman did not blame him. She was even a little amused by his efforts, she knew that he wanted to please his superiors by giving them the best accommodation as a gift.
He did not really break any rules but his actions could have made the guild suffer a little, not in terms of money but reputation. Thankfully no one had the guts here to provoke them.
But she was really interested to hear that some rich boy was the one who bought it for a hundred thousand spirit stones. That was not a low amount for the people in this place. To some of the sects that is their year worth of income.
"What about that boy, did you find anything about him?"
"The boy is called Long Tian!"
"And?!"
If she could find anyone with just his name would there be even need for people to make out sketches or using projection stones!
"He is handsome?!"
Ma Ning replied meekly, seemingly unsure on how to explain the appearance of the boy to her, he just narrated what he had learnt from Shao Heng.
*~SILENCE~*
*THUD*
A heavy pressure descended on the old man making him fall on his knee followed by the woman's chilling voice. He could sense annoyance and anger in her voice while also feeling her cold gaze boring on him.
"Are you joking with me, old man?!"
Leaning back on the luxurious sofa, she crossed her left leg over the other and looked down at the old man like she was about to judge his fate, If he did not say anything to clarify himself.

A fresh wave of morning dew assaulted Noah's nose as he woke up from his sleep. After staying in the forest for a long time Noah felt a little relaxed sleeping on the comfortable bed.
"Mmm~"
His movements aroused a moan from his side making him freeze his movements. He turned to look at his side and saw a huge bulge under the bed sheets. He could feel a hand locking around his waist. The arm around him felt warm and delicate.
Seeing the locks of green hair flowing from the sides of the sheets, Noah realized the identity of the person sleeping beside him. The memories of the last night flashed through his mind.
[Flashback]
Noah was sleeping peacefully on his bed until he woke up hearing a voice beside his ears.
"Noah, can I sleep with you?! I am unable to sleep alone!"
Since he was deep in his peaceful sleep and did not sense any ill intent. He did not open his eyes and just said.
"Mmm!"
Now that could either be interpreted as anything, either yes or no. Yet the ever optimistic Elysia took it as a humm of approval and got under his sheet.
She proceeded to sleep but not before giving him a kiss on the cheeks.
"Good Night~"
"Mmm"
With a content smile on her face she drifted in her sleep.
[Flashback Ends]
Now looking at the woman beside him Noah felt a headache coming as...
*Knock Knock*
'Oh well!'
