Chapter 191 Vonduhr was a small city situated at the beginning of a mountain path . It was mostly inhabited by non-cultivators, the people there lived off simple professions like hunting or farming . However, in the last month, many peculiar people were seen crossing its streets to enter the Three-jugs tavern . What was also peculiar was that the tavern, which was one of the few recreative businesses in the city, had closed its entrance to the normal citizen .

The common people of that world knew that when something unexpected or strange happened, it was likely related to the world of cultivation . Therefore, they began to avoid the tavern and continue with their own business, if those peculiar people were really cultivators, they would rather stay away from them . Noah arrived in Vonduhr exactly one month after he had received the "Breath" blessing . He was wearing tight black clothes as usual but his head was covered with a large hood and half of his face was hidden behind a tight scarf . Only his cold eyes were uncovered and they carefully examined the streets of the city . 'Should be that way . ' Noah moved toward a small building with a banner featuring three jugs . He had trained for the whole month, steadily improving his strength and making the best use of his new cultivation resource .
Sadly, he didn't manage to have any breakthrough of the sort, he simply had not enough time for that . 'I wonder what type of cultivators did the Royal family gathered . ' Noah arrived in front of the tavern and knocked three times before opening his mouth to speak through the scarf . "The golden eagle eats the red mouse . " The door released a metallic sound after those words were spoken and Noah pushed it to enter the building . He was immediately assaulted by a tense atmosphere as twenty or so cultivators turned to look at him . They were mostly dressed like him, with their faces covered and wary gazes, yet there were a few exceptions . "My, my, another valiant warrior . Would you like a cup of wine?" A female voice sounded as soon as the door closed . Noah turned to see a figure walking toward him holding a jug that exuded an intoxicating smell . The figure belonged clearly to a female cultivator and that wasn't only obvious from her voice . She was almost naked, with only a few strands of clothes wrapped around her bosom and buttocks .
Her face was almost completely covered by yellow bandages, revealing only her shiny green eyes . Her sensual forms coupled with her gaze would test the self-restraint of any man . Noah felt that the odor coming from the jug was attempting to affect his mental sphere so he immediately reacted . A saber appeared in his hand and he swung it toward the wine .
The woman dodged the attack but a few drops of the liquid contained in the jug fell on the ground and began to consume the wood of the floor .
In a few seconds, a small fuming hole was created in the tavern . "…" An awkward silence was created in the room as all the cultivators stared at the hole . "Oh my! I must have switched the liquid, I'm sorry! Take this refreshing beverage as a sign of excuse . " The woman took out another cup and tried to hand it to Noah . "Jean, stop it . We all know of your title 'Enchanting poison', do you really think that the Royals would recruit someone that stupid to fall for your traps?"
A fat man spoke to her from the back of the room . "Shut up, fatty! Let me have some fun . Those fucking Elbas have kept me in a cage till now!" The man snorted at her rebuke . "Didn't you expect that much after you killed almost everyone in your mansion?" "Hmph! They were just blind idiots, they didn't recognize my talent so they had to die . " Jean said, sitting in a corner of the room with her legs spread wide, revealing the covered parts of her lower body . The gazes of the male cultivators turned to stare at her with eager eyes and many gulps could be heard in the room . 'Why must I always be surrounded by idiots?' Noah internally shook his head and turned to sit near a wall of the tavern . "Hey, new one, what's your story?" The fat cultivator asked Noah . "I don't have a story . " Noah casually answered and closed his eyes, he had understood by then that the people in there were just like him: criminals . "But you must have one, I'd even bet an interesting one for you to be here . I'm fatty Joe, I did some stuff on the western side of the country and now I'm a dog of the Royal dynasty . " Jean snorted and looked at Noah . "Don't listen to him, he is a fatty addicted to human flesh . I advise you to never turn your back on him if you don't want to be bitten . " "Come on, don't be that mean, my cultivation technique works like that . I believe that everyone in this room has done its fair share of crimes to cultivate in this world ruled by nobles . " "He is right, Jean . We are the demons that the Royals use when they don't want to get their hands dirty . " Another man spoke, joining the conversation . Jean snorted and spoke in an angry voice . "Those fucking nobles think that they can set rules that only benefit them and label as a 'Demon' everyone that manages to break them . I could have been the genius of my generation in the alchemy field, instead I was relegated to be the maidservant of spoiled brats for half my life . No wonder the Elbas family ruled for such a long time, they don't care much about your origins and just accept everyone that has talent . " "Haha, that's true . But it's also true that they only use us as disposable slaves . " "Well, we don't have much choice . If we want to continue to cultivate, we need their support . " Many other people joined the conversation and Noah listened attentively to their words . In the end, realization dawned upon him . 'They are just like me, talented people that had to break the rules to embark on the cultivation journey . I guess it's true that the Royal family has gathered enough dangerous individuals through their rule, I'm just the last one to join their hidden forces . '
