Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!-Chapter 633: The Culprit.
Woosh!
Right before the entrance of a small cathedral, a building that appeared to be new and still in the middle of construction, a crack in the void appeared.
The crack was as thin as the breadth of a hair, barely noticeable. There were two guards who were standing at the entrance of the temple with their spears pointing towards the skies.
Their lazy posture straightened in shock and fear when they saw the crack as it widened enough to fit a person through it.
Clank!
Guided by their fear, they immediately pointed their spears towards the gap in the void before them, the darkness that seemed to ensnare their minds, swallow them alive, twisted and tangled, before three figures stepped out of it.
The guards, who had never seen a scene like this in their lives, were frozen in fear. Their hands trembled, and the spears in their hands dropped to the ground.
Leading the group, Noah stepped forward, followed by Xin Yan and then Widow Ah Shi.
The sheer aura radiating from their bodies made the guards tremble in fright. Ah Shi would have been the same if not for Noah secretly protecting her with his aura.
"Is this the temple?" Ignoring their reaction, Noah turned to look at the woman behind him and asked.
"...How?" She tried to speak but could only say one word. The scope of what she had witnessed was beyond what she could ever comprehend.
But then she acted as if nothing happened and nodded, "This is the place. The magistrate built this place himself for Healer Clara after she treated his son's hidden ailment in the kidneys."
Then her eyes landed on the frozen guards who were trembling in their posts, looking at them as if they had seen some kind of ghost.
She hurriedly stepped forward and pleaded with the guards, "Sir guards, these two seniors are honorable immortal cultivators. They are here to meet the healer Clara."
"Ah… Widow Ah Shi!" Seeing a familiar face, the guard snapped out of his daze and forced out a smile.
They had no doubts about their status as cultivators; who else but the legendary immortals can tear through the air like that?
"Greetings to the two honorable immortals!" The two guards immediately knelt on the ground in reverence.
"Can you tell us where this Healer Clara is?" Noah went straight to the point after accepting their greetings with a nod. "We have some business to discuss with her."
"Ah… honorable immortals also need to meet Healer Clara-ah!" The first guard almost blurted out in a daze, but his partner nudged him with his elbow and shut him up.
"Senior immortal, Healer Clara is currently away from the temple." After stopping his partner, the other guard spoke with his hands cupped before his face. "She has left with guards to collect some herbs."
"So she went to the market to buy herbs?" Noah asked with a frown while his attention appeared to be somewhere else.
"No, no, no, master immortal, Healer Clara went to the wilderness to look for herbs. She said that she could not find these herbs in the market."
The guard hurriedly shook his head and explained in detail.
"Do you not find it odd?" Noah asked again, "Instead of asking someone to get the herbs for her, she went to get them herself."
Embarrassed, the guard scratched the back of his head and replied, " To reply to the senior, Healer Clara does not allow us to touch the herbs and always collects them on her own, despite being a mortal like us."
At that point, people had started to gather around the square. The appearance of the immortal masters had caused quite the commotion in the area.
"Immortals master? Is that the truth?"
"Are they here to help with our problems?" freёnovelkiss.com
"Did you not hear? They are looking for Healer Clara."
"Could it be that they want to take her away?"
The whispers among the commoners continued to spread around like wildfire as more and more of them gathered around.
Even a carriage could be seen coming in their direction.
"Mortal… you say?" Noah sneered, his eyes narrowed as if they had focused on something. "Tch, now this is troublesome."
"What happened?" Xin Yan seemed to have sensed something amiss. "Did you see something?"
Before Noah could say something, a plump man dressed in regal clothing and covered in jewels from head to toe rushed towards the two of them.
Upon seeing Noah and Xin Yan, his eyes glowed, and he hurriedly bowed deeply to the two of them, "Greetings to the two immortals!"
His voice was loud and filled with reverence. Seeing the magistrate's actions, the guards followed to do the same behind him, and like a chain reaction, even the commoners now prostrated themselves before the two of them.
"I am deeply honored that the immortal masters have graced my lucky town with their presence." The nobleman was none other than the magistrate of the town.
"Magistrate, we were passing by and heard about the ill fate that has fallen on this town from Miss Ah Shi and decided to lend a hand to help her find the person behind all of this." Noah spoke calmly, but his voice reached every single soul present in the area.
"I am deeply grateful to honorable masters for their help. What can we help you with?" At first the magistrate was stunned upon hearing his words, but after controlling his emotions, he spoke with even more determination.
He, just like anyone else, wanted to catch the culprit of this incident, as it was also his son who was one of the kidnapped targets.
Noah looked at the noble with indifference before speaking, "I have already found the person responsible."
The noble trembled under his gaze while Xin Yan narrowed her eyes without saying anything. A glint of sadness flashed through her eyes as she bit her lips before turning away.
"Can… Can you tell us about it as well?" Sweat appeared on the head of the magistrate, but he asked through gritted teeth with his trembling voice.
"She left this place in the disguise of collecting herbs." Noah's voice sent shocks through the hearts of the two guards at the gates and Widow Ah Shi. "She used a Beast Attracting pill to attract a bunch of beasts to kill herself and the guards."
