Chapter 349
A circular table was placed at the center of the residential area of the cultivators in the second rank .
Noah was sitting on a simple chair together with the five disciples that were waiting in front of his cave, they had invited him to join them for a talk and he didn't have a reason to refuse .
Noah strived for a peaceful environment where to cultivate, as a member of the sect, it seemed right to at least maintain friendly relationships with the other disciples .
Yet, as the minutes passed, he started to become impatient .
"Zach, right? Have a taste of this wine, I personally bought it on island forty-nine . "
"Why don't you tell us more about yourself? I bet that your story must be amazing!"
"You sure are good looking! We should go together to the brothels on island ninety-nine, I bet that they will give us a discount if you were to come with us!"
The conversations of the disciples differed a lot from what Noah had expected .
'Did they invite me just to have a drink? Where are the prideful stares from before?'
Noah thought as he kept shaking his head every time someone asked him a question, he simply continued to take sips from his cup, waiting for the conversation to reach the important topics .
However, it seemed that their chit-chats had no end .
"The Chasing demon sect has really a shortage of female cultivators, we are forced to go on the surface every once in a while or we will go crazy!"
"The best wine is found in the islands number twenty and below but this one isn't bad at all!"
"Where do you come from? Are you a native of the archipelago? Did you come here from the continent?"
'Are these the normal conversations that cultivators have? Damn, I miss June's surprise attacks, they were easier to endure . '
Noah sighed as he remembered the silver-haired wild girl that only wanted to surpass him .
'She might have surpassed my cultivation level already thanks to the inheritance… Oh well, I have wasted a lot of time escaping after all . '
His mind began to wander as he reviewed the events in the Utra country, the words of the disciples around him became a soft background noise as he lost himself in his memories .
'I wonder what happened to Ivor… Now that I think about it, he was the person closest to me in the eyes of the Royals . '
Ivor was only interested in passing down his inscription method, his mind had been on the verge of falling apart for a long time, only his obsession allowed him to endure the waves of pain that his cracked mental sphere constantly radiated .
'He is either dead or imprisoned . '
That was the obvious conclusion that Noah reached .
He knew that investigations about his background had been made after his disappearance, he was entangled in too many obscure matters after all, the Royals wouldn't just let him go .
However, Noah didn't feel bad about him .
There was a tacit understanding between him and Ivor, the latter knew that Noah had many secrets and that he would eventually leave so he did his best to pass down his knowledge .
Noah, instead, knew that Ivor's life was hanging on a frail thread, only a soft blow was enough to take it away .
