Novel Full Chapter 985 - Jwala
Sam waited in the inn for the call to come. He knew that this time, someone is bound to come, and just within two hours after the threat, someone came to meet him.
It is a woman wearing a black robe. She used a cloth similar to hijab and even covered her hair only her face is visible.
Sam let her in as soon as she knocked on the door.
Inside the room, Sam is sitting with the rest of his team.
"What do you want to talk about?"
The woman asked in a cold voice.
"Are you the sect leader?" Sam asked with a smile.
"No."
"Then I have nothing to talk to you about."
"You have no right to directly talk to her. You should tell me what the matter is and if it is something that needs her approval, then I will arrange a meeting."
"Then who will decide if the matter is important enough to meet the sect leader?"
"Me, of course."
"When I heard your sect is running on losses and your leader has no experience, I was surprised. But now that I see you guys, it is no wonder you are losing money."
As soon as those words left Sam's mouth, the aura of the lady changed indicating her extreme anger.
"You better watch your tongue." As she spoke she tried to suppress Sam with her aura of Superior cultivation.
But before she could do that, she felt suppressed from all four sides and before she realized, the Five elemental King, the Saber Monarch, Gran, Sia, and Agar all surrounded her and their auras are pressing on her. She couldn't bear the mental pressure and held her head in pain. Even though Tamas didn't move just the change in his presence is enough to make her feel the dread of death.
Sam gestured them to back off a little and said.
"I don't want any conflict with you. I just want a meeting with your sect leader. You might think I am not worthy because of my age and strength, but my subordinates in the room would disagree big time.
So, you better go back to your sect leader and tell her that I want to meet her. This deal might make your sect not only come out of your poor state, it will also help in keeping the sect running properly even without any of her involvement.
And the threat remains. I will show the video out by tomorrow evening. That is just a grace period because someone of a higher level came here to talk to me. And also tell her that the content in the video is the indication of poor handling of the organization."
With that, the lady in the black left the inn with a black face.
She is angry and frustrated. The saleswoman didn't say anything about Sam having these strong subordinates and she thought she could shake him off a bit with that pressure.
But the team almost made her faint with just a display of the aura. This caused her to evaluate the situation and came to a decision to tell everything that happened to the sect leader.
From the looks of it, the people in Sam's team are as strong as the sect leader, so she could only follow what Sam said so that the sect wouldn't add even more enemies.
The Next day.
After the sun rose, the lady in the black came back. But this time, she is polite and not as overbearing as before. She came to lead Sam to the sect.
"Sect leader ordered that only Sam could come since he is your boss. He is the only one required for the business deal."
When the team was about to raise their objections, Sam gestured them to stop and showed them some hand signs casually, and left the inn along with the lady.
They went out of the city and walked through the forest path for half a half-an-hour before they reached the sect.
Even though it is called a sect specifically, it doesn't have an atmosphere of the typical sect.
It occupied a large area with an active volcano in the center and the rest looked like a forest area. But most of it was cut down to build houses, but still, the atmosphere of the forest is not gone.
There are no distinct buildings assigned for certain activities like teaching, sparring, or healing. There are no offices, quarters, dorms and from the looks of it, there are not even many rules.
The only proper building is near the volcano and it seems to be the place for the artisans and the medicine makers to work.
At the foot of the volcano, A woman with golden blonde hair and red robes which has golden embroidery all over sat on a chair with a table in front of her. Sam was lead to a seat opposite to her.
"So, you are the man that is threatening our sect," Jwala spoke as soon as Sam sat down. Her tone was cold and showed her clear hatred towards him.
"That is one way to put it, but the more appropriate way is that I am the man that was created by your sect and decided to threaten you for that."
She became silent as she sized him up and Sam did the same. But unlike her, he didn't look at the other party, instead, he focused on his sense of smell. Because he could smell something here that is riling up his Golden Sun crow bloodline. It is not because that could be of help to him in cultivation, but whatever that is, it is something the bloodline seemed to be familiar with.
It should be something the golden sun crows are so in contact with that it registered into genetic memory. If only Yanwu could smell through the divine dimension, then he is sure that he would have found out what it is.
"What is the deal that you want to talk about?" Jwala asked as she looked at Sam's curious expression.
"I am assembling a team of strong people for a quest I have to fulfill. I want you to be a part of it."
"I cannot. I have a sect to run and I don't want to be part of a stupid team."
"Stupid? Every one of my team members is smarter than you. Do you know why? They decided to make a decision after listening to what I have to say completely. So, let me finish before you make a decision. After all, I still didn't say what I have to offer."
By the time Sam finished speaking, her eyes turned red and she is ready to throw her temper. Her aura is raging and the rest of the staff standing nearby also got ready to make a move. But Sam just smiled and said.
"Are you sure you want to do something? Didn't your subordinate tell you about my subordinates?"
"You are far away from your subordinates now, aren't you?"
"Well, it seems like you are more naïve than I thought. No wonder your sect is having problems."
"I don't want to hear another word out of your narcissistic mouth about my sect and me. No matter where I go, all men are the same. Thinking that they have right to lecture me." She muttered the last line and Sam almost burst out laughing.
"Oh, you are a man-hater. It has been a while since I met one."
"What did you call me?"
Red hot flames surrounded her as she looked at Sam in anger.
"What else do you want me to call you? You passed a judgment on me within five minutes of meeting me. You are extremely hostile since the start of the meeting and you called my team stupid as soon as I proposed the offer even before listening to it fully."
"You are the one to talk. What about the judgments you passed on me and the sect since the start?"
"Your sect is in a dire state which is a fact. And when I visited your shop and bought something in the intention to make a bigger deal, your employees that means your subordinates tried to cheat me of my money just because they don't have sales.
Whose fault is that if not for the bad management of yours forgetting to keep your employees in line?
You have no experience in running a sect. The most you would have done is being a part of one and here you are with a sect as its leader. Doesn't know how to operate, but you expanded so much now you must be running out of funds to support all the women.
Your subordinate, whatever her name is, the woman in the black doesn't have a single skill in talking or negotiating. I have some evidence on your guys trying to cheat me and the worst she could do is come and threaten me again without even knowing my strength, but she did exactly the same and that too in the presence of a bunch of my subordinates, in which anyone could clap her to death in a second.
And your final judgment on every man is the same? I don't know how many pathetic men you have met, honestly, I don't care. I am a person who offered a genuine deal and any responsible sect leader would consider the deal more than their immature emotional reactions.
And your judgment is so stupid, to begin with. If you have met a dozen men who are pathetic do all the men are bound to be like that? I met with a thousand whores who are willing to sell their bodies for a comfortable life. How stupid it would be if I judge every woman as a whore?
So, don't play this game with me."
