Lian blushed when she realized that she had said too much and acted like a child in front of Azrael.

"I'm sorry, that's unbecoming of me," she said.

"No problem. It was cute actually." Azrael said.

"Cut—" she felt her face becoming too hot. 

She averted her eyes and looked at the window of the carriage trying to avoid looking at Azrael's face.

After 5 minutes, they arrived at the big and grand estate. Whoever lives in this estate surely has a great status and influence in the city.

They got down from the carriage and entered the estate. Inside the estate is a huge space that can house several houses.

Many people were walking around and when they saw Lian they immediately stopped what they were doing and sensed something was wrong.

"What happened young miss?" a middle-aged woman who looks like a maid approached her.

"It's a long story. I will report to my father about what happened. And please escort our guest to one of the guesthouses."

The middle-aged woman looked at Azrael for a moment wondering who he was. Then she nodded.

"Follow her for a moment and I'll come for you later," she said and walked towards the biggest building in the estate.

Azrael then followed the maid to the guest house.

"Here's the key for the guest house." the maid said.

The guesthouse is a simple-looking building with enough space for a living room, bathroom, one-bedroom, and dining area. There's no kitchen since the maids usually deliver food from the main house.

"I'll send another maid later to tend to your needs. Then, I'll be leaving first." the maid courteously said.

"Is that true?"  a man who's in his 30's asked with a hint of anger. He has a vigorous aura and a healthy figure.

He was sitting in the main seat inside the grand hall. Beside him is a beautiful woman who's in her 30's, she wore a worried face. 

These are her parents, Maxwell Rose and Reona Rose. Both of them are considered as strong cultivators in this city, Maxwell is a 2nd Qi Liquification stage cultivator while Reona is 9th a Qi refining stage cultivator.

In a small city like this, 9th Qi refining stage cultivator is considered as peak and anyone who can enter the Qi liquification stage is considered as lord. That is why Lian, who entered the 5th Qi refining stage at a young age is considered a genius.

The elders also wore shocked faces when they heard this piece of information.

Maxwell and Reona couldn't help but approach the young girl standing in their front.

"Are you okay dear?" Reona asked as she caressed her face and hair.

After hearing the worried question of her mother, tears couldn't help but form at the edge of her eyes. However, she still holds on and forces herself not to cry.

"Un." she nodded, "Fortunately, Azrael saved us."

"Azrael? Where is he? I want to see him. Bring him to me." he paused, " No, I am the one who should need to go and meet him later." he corrected himself after realizing that it was not appropriate to summon the savior of her daughter in a very domineering way. He should be the one who is making an effort to meet Azrael.

"You said that their purpose is to capture you and not to kill you? But why?" Maxwell said as he was puzzled.

"I don't know, they just appeared during our training in the forest."

"Did you tell anyone about it?" Reona asked.

"No, mother. I just told whoever asked that we were attacked by a strong monster beast," Lian said.

"Good. Since we don't know their motives." Maxwell then patted his daughter's head, "We will have a meeting, for now, you should go to your room and rest."

Lian exited the hall while Reona followed her daughter.

Then Maxwell and the elders conducted a meeting.

Inside a building somewhere in the city while the Estate of Rose family having an important meeting

" Those wastes!" a burly middle-aged man flipped his desk after receiving some sort of report.

"Are you sure of what you said?" he asked aggressively to a man kneeling in front of him.

The man trembled because he felt a murderous aura coming from his front

"Y-yes. A-and from what we heard, she claimed that they were attacked by a monster beast instead of people." the man said while trembling.

"So, she didn't dare to publicize about the incident because she didn't know who the mastermind was. Quite smart for a brat. I'm sure her father would do the same. But how did they survive? Was she that strong to kill 5 men with higher cultivation than her?" he doubtfully asked.

"N-no, according to her someone saved them. But her statement is also weird."

"Weird? What is it?"

"Because the one who she claimed as their savior has no cultivation."

"No cultivation!? Are you kidding me? Do you think that I am a fool to believe you!? Huh!?" he looked fiercely at the man

"I-I'm t-there a-and I-I am s-sure that m-man h-has n-no c-c-cultivation." Each time he spoke, his teeth would bump with each other because of fear.

"HAHAHA, to think that those wastes would be killed by a non-cultivator!" he laughed maniacally. 

"As if I would believe that!" he then slapped the man in the face causing him to fly towards the furniture and his teeth to fall off.

"Quickly tell the others that we will proceed with our plan two weeks from now. Master couldn't wait anymore. Tell them that we need to succeed now if you guys want to live. Go!"

The man immediately exited.

"Save by a non-cultivator? As if anyone would believe that." the burly middle-aged man mutters.

"To think that you would experience something like that," Reona said as she combed her daughter's wet hair, fresh from the bath.

"Yes, I thought that was the end but fortunately Azrael appeared," she said as she smiled sweetly.

Seeing her daughter smiling sweetly while talking about someone, especially a young man, she couldn't help but tease her and ask, "Hey my precious daughter."

"Hmmm, what is it, mother?" She then lifted her head to look at her mother's face.

"What do you think of him?"
