Chapter 741
Noah returned in the hall by himself, and the envoys couldn't help but assault him with countless questions . The oath made them confident that he didn't betray them, but they still wanted to know the reason behind that private meeting .
Noah couldn't hide much at that point . He began to explain how his body-nourishing method made him resemble the lost bloodline of the ancestors of that world .
He even explained Danielle's story and how they kept the six bloodlines alive .
It was needless to say that the thought of having a harem interested some of the envoys . After all, all the humans in Noah's world had three centers of power, meaning that each of them was a valuable resource there .
Of course, Noah lied to them when it came to the features of his body . He said that Danielle had rejected him when she discovered that his abilities were the result of a technique and carried drawbacks .
The envoys could only let the issue go even if Noah didn't reveal any secret about his body . It was clear that he wasn't willing to expose himself, and they simply accepted the positive result that the misunderstanding brought to their world .
Only June knew that something was off .
According to his explanation, Noah did resemble the ancestors, which meant that Danielle didn't refuse him . However, she couldn't give voice to her worries in that place . She could only try to pick up clues from Noah's expression whenever their eyes met .
She realized that Noah was distracted and that his usual sharpness didn't appear in his aura .
Seeing him in that state frustrated her, especially since she couldn't reach for him and ask what was wrong . Yet, she could only lower her head and try to stop those emotions from appearing in her aura .
One of the guards in the hall announced that they could spend a few days there while Danielle prepared herself for an official meeting, and the envoys didn't hesitate to accept that offer . The guards even allowed a few of them to exit the dome to contact their headquarters!
The news that they had been accepted by one of the ruling forces shook the rank 5 cultivators on the volcano .
Everything was going smoothly, and establishing an alliance was a priority since they were still unaware of the actual power of the bloodlines . They would need to know their exact number of powerful assets before choosing a more violent approach, but they could settle for a simple exchange of resources until then .
The fact that Noah's peculiar body had influenced Danielle's behavior surprised them too, but the report of the envoys made them believe that they had just been lucky .
After all, Noah had been alone with Danielle for less than an hour . With the oath and that short amount of time, they felt inclined to believe him .
The guards assigned luxurious rooms to each envoy and made sure to leave a device that they could use in case they needed something .
Noah didn't even glance at his companions before entering his room and closing the door behind him . The others simply followed his example and decided to spend that time either cultivating or enjoying the delicacies that the guards could bring .
They couldn't possibly know that Danielle had granted Noah a favor and was waiting for everyone to close their doors before appearing inside his room through a secret passage .
