The list (93)
Ruvan for his part wasted no time and quickly left his residence in search of Jena.
'Damn last night I think I overdid it with poor Sefia' Ruvan muttered with a smile as he remembered how Sefia had completely vanished in the face of his relentless onslaughts.
'Yesterday was good, though. It wasn't enough...' A lump could be seen under Ruvan's robe. Due to this uncomfortable situation he was forced to walk with his lower back to avoid being seen as a pervert by the female disciples walking around him.
'I need to find more partners... I can still feel the surplus Yang Energy lurking inside my body'
'Forget it... For now let's see what all this is about from the list of disciples that I have to eliminate' Ruvan decided to keep spinning his head and quickly increased his speed towards Jena's residence.
After about fifteen minutes Ruvan finally arrived at the imposing Jena residence, which was located as always on the highest mountain of the entire Sect.
The Hidden Flower Sect consisted of several valleys which were divided by several mountains. Some of these mountains could be habitable while some others simply acted as natural barriers.
"What are you coming for?"A strict female voice took Ruvan out of his thoughts so he quickly raised his head to see the owner of said voice.
"Oh..."
The woman standing in front of him was dressed in a suit specialized in camouflage, which made her get lost in nature. A bow was hanging from his back while the entirety of her face was hidden under a strange white jade mask.
"I'm here to see the Sect Master... I'm her personal disciple"
"Your ID..."
"..." Ruvan.
"What?"
"YOUR ID... I NEED YOUR ID" The woman said dryly.
"Here you go" Ruvan said with a grimace after seeing that the woman in front of him was not being kind at all.
"Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to pass..." Ruvan said with a smug smile as he made his way through the woman.
"DO YOU DARE?"A powerful aura invaded Ruvan making him feel like a small ant in front of an elephant.
"Do you dare to hurt the Sect Master's personal disciple?"Ruvan was not intimidated and quickly replied.
'Is this bastard still standing?'The masked woman couldn't help but be amazed after all she had applied enough pressure to smash Ruvan to the ground.
"Tssk... Here" The woman finally didn't bother anymore. She throw the ID jade back to Ruvan just before disappear.
"What an annoying woman..." Ruvan didn't bother to hide his voice. After putting his clothes back together he set off again.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"What happened to you?..."Jena, who was currently reading a couple of reports at her desk, raised her eyebrow when she saw Ruvan's completely red face.
"One of your bodyguards played a joke on me..." Ruvan said with an annoyed tone as he unceremoniously sat down on one of the sofas in her office.
Ruvan had arrived here after asking for directions from a group of maids who gladly helped him after giving them a couple of smiles.
"Hahahaha"
"It must have been Mayla... Don't take it personally. It's like that with practically everyone..." Jena said while shaking her hand lightly.
'But I'm not everyone'
Ruvan simply limited himself to smiling but his mind was already working on a future revenge.
"What are you doing?"
"I am answering a proposal sent by the Sect Master of the Wandering Peak," Jena said casually.
"Oh I see... Are you negotiating the release of his son?"
"Exactly..."
"Can't you imagine that he has asked me in exchange for a generous payment?" Jena said with a mysterious smile.
"No idea? Maybe one of your panties?"
"…" Jena.
"WHAT!?!? WHAT THE FUCK IS IN YOUR HEAD"
"Nothing... I just know someone who would pay very well for that..." Ruvan said dryly while remembering Shadow Walker.
'I hope Ryu is doing well'
"He asked me to hand over to him a disciple who has golden eyes who participated in the mission of capturing his son... He even offered several mines of spirit stones in exchange for your handover..." Jena said with a half smile.
"And what do you plan to answer?"
"Of course I'm going to accept the offer..."
"..." Ruvan.
"Hahahaha I'm Joking hahahaha... You should see your face" Jena said while wiping a tear out of the corner of her eye.
"I simply told him that we didn't have any golden-eyed disciples in our Sect"
"However, from now on I recommend you to be careful when doing any missions outside the Sect"" Jena said solemnly.
"Understood... Thanks for the warning" Ruvan said sincerely.
"Well? How has your life been going as a disciple of the Sect?"Jena said as she changed the subject.
"Everything is going well... I even attended my first class in the Dual Cultivation Department already"" Ruvan said lightly. He summed up a little his events and impressions during his first days living in the Outer Courtyard.
"I see... it's good to see that you are adapting well"
"For now, you continue like this while Mei and I take care of the search for the next part of the Devouring Art" Jena said with a smile.
Ruvan and his Master had already had a previous conversation about the possible clues to find the other parts of the 'Devouring Art'. Naturally Ruvan also extended this information to Jena to facilitate the search.
"Great..."
"Now here... Take this" Jena said as she threw a small rolled up scroll. Ruvan wasted no time and quickly unrolled it to read its contents.
"These are the names of the disciples aligned with Clayton"
A long list of men and women was written on the scroll. Ruvan had even already heard about some of them.
"Oh! Looks like I'm in luck"" Ruvan said with a smile.
"Do you have a pen?"
"..." Jena.
"Here" Seeing that Ruvan was serious, she threw him one of the many pens that were on her desk.
Ruvan didn't waste any time and quickly started crossing off some names within the list.
"..."Jena.
"Are you serious? You've only been in the Sect for a few days and you've already killed five disciples?"Jena said with some exasperation. Jena didn't know whether to laugh or cry
."It's not my fault... They came looking for trouble" Ruvan said indifferently as he continued crossing out the names of the disciples he had killed. Naturally he could not remember everyone's name so he had to search inside the belongings of the deceased disciples.
Ruvan had kept most of their belongings and rings inside his space ring so he had no problem identifying the disciples he had sent to the afterlife.
"And what did you do with the bodies?"
"If you get found out I won't be able to do much to help you after, all the Discipline Hall is practically controlled by the Elders loyal to Clayton" Jena said with some concern.
"Don't worry... They will never be able to find their bodies"
"Why are you so sure about that?"
"Because they were all already digested by Viridis" Ruvan said with a smile.
As if hearing his name the little snake poked her head through one of Ruvan's sleeves.
"Ssssss"
"Sigh..."
"Good job"
"However... You must be careful after all most of the disciples on the list are famous people inside the Outer Courtyard"
"I recommend that you try to take care of them outside the Sect grounds to avoid attracting curious stares" Jena said seriously.
"Don't worry! I already have some ideas of how to start taking care of this"" Ruvan said with a relaxed smile which sent a breath of cold air straight to Jena's spine.
'That same look again...'
Jena froze for a few seconds until she was finally able to pull herself together.
"By the way. Do not hesitate to consume the members of the list. Many of them have special physiques"
"As long as you do it discreetly and preferably somewhere far away" Jena said with a smile.
"Oh... That's great" Ruvan said with a casual smile.
"You said you will take care of the elderly, didn't you?"
"That's right... However, if you can eliminate one, another will be more than welcome," Jena said with a simple smile, after all, she didn't have much expectation that Ruvan would be able to deal with the powerful Sect Elders while he was still in the Golden Core Realm.
"Oh ~ Good to know"
"By the way... here"
"What is this?"
"It is a detailed map of the region. There you will find a list of desolate places so that you can ambush and devour people whenever you want. I'm sure it will be of great help to you"
"Great! Thank you very much"
"Don't think about that after all this it favors me too" Jena said with a half smile.
"Well... Do you have any other questions?"Jena asked curiously to see that Ruvan did not get up from his seat.
"None"
"Then you can leave" Urged Jena with exasperation.
"What the hell is going on?"
"Is there no goodbye kiss?"Ruvan asked with a pout.
"I can give you a kick in the balls with pleasure" Jena said with an extremely kind smile that would send chills to anyone.
"..." Ruvan.
"Okay I'm leaving hahahaha"
'This fucking bastard brat is trying his luck...' Jena murmured internally but the feeling of freshness invaded her mind again.
