In the morning, a stunning news spread throughout the entirety of the Demonic Sword Sect.
"Have you already heard what had happened to that greedy Cao Min?"
"What? Is he perhaps enjoying his riches and flaunting it to get his women in our front?"
"Of course not! But well... He might have done that indeed if he was alive to enjoy them today. HAHAHA!"
"What do you mean? Is Cao Min..."
"Yup. He died. Must be because of those spirit stones. I say every time, too much of everything is never good. It would only invite the envious scourge in your home."
"Indeed. Cao Min has eaten more than he could chew. It would be good if he only got some broken teeth to show for it but alas, he lost his life in consequence for being so naive."
"Let this serve as a lesson to all of you! If you happen to stumble upon any treasure in your life, don't tell a soul. Or you may just end up exactly like Cao Min."
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
"Absolutely!" The Outer Disciples talked amongst themselves.
Conversations like these were rampant around and same as the majority of disciples, this showed aptly enough of their ignorance of the truth.
However, those that knew of what really happened behind closed doors certainly would not be stupid to blabber their mouths away out in the open.
Especially since this involved the most powerful Seniors in the sect, no one doubted that they would follow Cao Min's fate if they should do otherwise.
It did not need saying that this piece of trivial information has also reached the ears of our bored gamer and company.
"There goes another victim of your schemes, Foul Creature. You should just raise your neck and let me take your head cleanly in one swipe of my sword.
It would at least grant you what little redemption that can be afforded in your surrender." Lin Che uttered her usual dark omen of words as she shook her head in dismay.
She would have wanted nothing but to end her quest as soon as possible but it seemed that our bored gamer would choose to remain stubborn in the end.
"Wouldn't that be too easy if I did exactly as you wanted, Lin Che?
If you really want to finish your task here then you should better go home and return to see me only after one hundred trillion years.
When that time comes, I bet that you'd get the chance to hear me say a final goodbye. To you and to this chaotic world."
Our bored gamer replied and revealed what little he can to the Primal Warden.
"Why? What's going to happen in one hundred trillion years?" Lin Che asked the golden question.
"We shall see, won't we?" Clark smiled and led his eternal prison guard out of the room. Together, they went to welcome the new day with entirely different motivations.
"Good morning, Young Master Clark!" Elders Feng Ren and Feng Lin greeted outside of the room and it did not take them long to go outside of the residence.
The crowded bodies were no more and what was left behind was a semblance of peace. Perhaps this was true, save for one soul who persevered even now.
Our bored gamer toyed with what subtle words he can for he knew moments like these were becoming so rare indeed.
He was still thinking of how he could effectively and efficiently make his ex fiancee fall in love with him.
There were thoughts of using the same common cliche in the web novels he'd read in the past where they would get poisoned with potion of love or lust or a mixture of both and do the deed in absolute abandon but he discarded it after giving it some thought.
Our bored gamer was looking for true love at this time and he was not about to get that by doing so.
At least Clark made the quest more difficult for him at this stage. After all, he got all the time in the world to burn and waste away.
Our good gamer could only look at Tang Xinyue with all the desire he could give in the end.
"You will always be a scum in my eyes, Lu Chen. And I never expected anything good to come from your mouth. So i don't need your apologies.
You are only wasting your breath in saying them. What do you want?!" Tang Xinyue exploded in the room and she did not even spare a glance at the silent lady on the corner.
She found Lin Che as a strange blunt woman and there were times when her frankness was too real to ignore.
This was especially true in these days where their paths had crossed more than she ever wanted.
The gods and goddesses above knew that Tang Xinyue would rather be alone than spending her days in the presence of one very annoying woman in Lin Che.
"You flatter me with your words, Xinyue. I think that I am even blushing with happiness right now."
Clark replied in all the indifference he could posture but deep inside could only sigh again for the umpteenth time.
'At least I tried.' Our bored gamer lamented in the silence of his thoughts. In the end, he went directly to what he wanted for Tang Xinyue to do for him.
"Tell that boy outside something for me... he passed the test. Offer him refuge in my residence and let him know that I will see him when I have the time." Clark instructed.
A breath.
Two breaths.
And some more followed.
Tang Xinyue took this time to get over her shock. One should know that she was one of the few people that our bored gamer has offered large amounts of resources to use.
Alas, she rejected them almost immediately. Tang Xinyue was much too proud to accept anything from someone she viewed as her most hated enemy.
But then to think that Lu Chen was willing to accept some more people in house.
And just like before, she assumed that Lu Chen would also give his share of resources and spirit stones to that nameless lucky Outer Disciple.
'Is he really so rich?! How?!' Tang Xinyue could only pause in utter wonder. She left ten breaths after and did not say any more words towards our bored gamer.
She deemed no reason to do so. But unbeknownst to her, another guest was patiently waiting for her to go out.
* * *
"Everything is ready, Young Master Clark." Gu Wenren arrived in time.
She had heard what had transpired from beginning to end and was well aware to take notice of the unknown new part of Young Maser Clark's circle of influence.
"Very well then... it's time for us to move." Our bored gamer stood and left the soft embrace of his bed.
