The people living there were all wearing the traditional costumes of the Muraco Clan.

The villagers were alert when they saw a stranger like Zeke. Some even looked hostile.

Thankfully, he had the Holy Maiden by his side. Therefore, no one dared to do anything rash.

On the way there, Zeke had encountered countless poisonous worm traps, but he had managed to overcome each and every one of them with ease.

Since Zeke had been trained personally by the elders of the Muraco clan, the poisonous worm traps were nothing more than a walk in the park for him.

The Holy Maiden was quite surprised and asked, “By the look of it, you seem to be well versed where poisonous worms are concerned. Have you studied them before?”

“Yes,” answered Zeke in a casual tone.

There was suddenly a hint of anticipation in her voice. “So, are you also a member of the Muraco Clan? Or are you related to the Muraco Clan?”

“Neither.”

“Oh.”

The Holy Maiden sounded extremely disappointed.


Zeke had no inkling why the Holy Maiden reacted in that manner all of a sudden.

The village was not huge, and it consisted of around a hundred families.

Very soon, they arrived at the house of the head of the clan. It was the only three-story house in the entire village.

“This is where the clan leader stays,” announced the Holy Maiden. “Please wait here while I inform him of your arrival.”

“Fine.”

In small, dainty steps, the Holy Maiden made her way up to the third level.

However, after a few steps, a sultry voice rang out from the topmost floor.

“Erwen, you are back so soon.”

Zeke looked toward the direction of the voice and saw a sexy middle-aged lady dressed in revealing clothes coming down from the third floor.

In terms of her voice, dressing, and even her movement, she was the embodiment of the word “sexy.”

It was a direct contrast against the aloofness of the Holy Maiden.

That was also the first time Zeke knew of the Holy Maiden's name, Erwen.

She is exactly what her name suggests. Pure and cold like the snow!

At the sight of the alluring woman, the Holy Maiden broke into a sweet but shallow smile.

The Holy Maiden responded, “Yes, Yazmin. I just got back.”

The seductive Yazmin said, “Erwen, how was your trip away from the village? Did you meet anyone interesting? Tell me. I have been locked up here for three days and three nights. I'm about to be bored to death.”

The Holy Maiden shook her head. “No, Yazmin. I'm here to look for the head of the clan. Please inform him of our arrival.”

Yazmin shook her head. “I doubt you can see him right now. He has entered seclusion and is still in it. By the way, why are you looking for him?”

The Holy Maiden turned and glanced at Zeke.
