Two days later,
The Life Wine Pavilion was a beautiful building in the business district of the inner domain and it was the most famous and crowded place in the inner domain because it offered the best beverages on the continent.
But the inner domain branch of the Life Wine Pavilion differed slightly from its normal branches.
Because in these branches only cultivators with river realm can enter and they had to pay ten low-grade 1 Qi stones for entry. Not even nobles can bypass this process, except for the association members, of course.
Anyhow, the business was booming in the night hours, as always.
Right at this moment, a beautiful demoness with an icy demeanor, wearing a black dress, entered the building, drawing some of the young scions' attention.
However, she moved right toward the counter, where another beautiful hostess was dealing with some flirtatious scions.

There were three more demons who were following behind that fat demon with the same look in their eyes.
However, this demoness completely ignored them and asked the hostess, "Where's Private Room 23? Someone is waiting for me."
The hostess looked at the demoness and then those demon scions, who had now ugly expressions on their faces as they were being ignored by this demoness.
"Please go to the west hallway. You'll find the private room 23."
This demoness was naturally Noa in her Lana disguise, who was here to meet with Ace.
After getting the confirmation, Noa moved toward the west hallway.
"Boss, it seemed that chick didn't know who you are." One of the demons behind the fat demon whispered.
The Fatty's lustful eyes were cold as he looked at that demoness's ample back. He knew he can't cause trouble here or he'll be banned after they broke his limbs. So, he didn't cause a scene just now.
He said, "Keep a watch on room 23. The moment that bitch leave, I'll let her know who she ignored!"
The other three smiled evilly, as they quickly agreed.
Right in the corner of the entrance lobby,
A demon was standing watching everything with his purple eye filled with coldness. The strange thing was that no one seemed to notice him as if he was invisible.
'Young Miss is meeting someone? But she didn't have any friends, nor did someone contact her in the guild. The last time she went to the treasure pagoda, two people were found dead.
'Master only thought it was a coincidence, but now she's meeting someone while she said she was going for a stroll. Something is going on. I have to see who she's meeting and what they're talking about.'
He crept toward the west hallway as well and approached the private room 23.
On the other hand,
Just as Noa opens the door with some anticipation to see Ace, to her surprise, the room was empty. Only an empty bottle and a wineglass were on the table.
However, a gentle voice entered her ear at this moment. "Don't resist."
The next moment, she felt a firm grip on her shoulder.
Her first reaction was to fight, but she suddenly recognized this voice, so she didn't resist anymore.
Suddenly a suction force appeared, before her vicious blurred and she appeared in front of a creepy dark house and dark space.
Noa was greatly alarmed at first, but then Ace's voice sounded again.
"Don't worry, it's a special space granted to you by the goddess. Just enter the Thief House and you'll find your room. I'll be back in a moment."
Noa was startled when she heard. Her eyes shimmered with elation as she moved toward the thief's house with great anticipation.
Outside,
Ace was naturally in his stealth when he took Noa in his thief's space and he also senses the presence of a soul realm demon moving in slowly.
His lips curled, and he moved toward the exit. He didn't alert anyone while leaving!
'First step is complete.' Ace smiled contently as he headed back.
The soul realm demon didn't notice Ace passing by and he continues to get close to the close private room number 23.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, his expression suddenly changed when he used his martial sense to probe the room and found there was no one!
He quickly appeared in front of the room and kicked open the door, and his expression turned ashen when he saw it was empty!
"H-how?!" He was as if his soul had left him.
He clearly knew if Lana disappeared right under his nose, the Life Grandmaster would skin him alive.
So, he started to panic and quickly headed toward the registration counter and question the hostess, "Who was in Private Room 23?!"
They naturally kept a register for private rooms.
The hostess was shocked when she felt the murderous aura of this dark brown demon. She was frightened and looked around for help. She wasn't supposed to disclose this kind of information to anyone except the association's bigwigs.
"Just give me that!" He waved his hand and took the register. He had more important things to worry about than showing his identity.
He quickly found Private Room Number 23 and see today's entry.
'Private Room Number 23'
'Booked by Evil Blade Demon Clan's Eliezer Evil Blade.'
"Evil Blade Clan, you're courting death!" He threw the register back and quickly left.
But one thing which he didn't seem to understand was why they did it!
Nevertheless, he didn't have time to mull over it.
He was going toward the life demon guild to inform his master first, even though he wanted to head to the Evil Blade Estate first, but he knew the evil blade demon clan wasn't easy to push around by someone like him.
Only the Life Grandmaster can overpower them and demand something.
Even the Blade Demon King won't interfere as long as the Life Grandmaster moves personally!
