Chapter 99: Chapter 99: Noah's Indifference! Scared Li Rong!
The staff behind the counter did not feel the pressure that suffocated these cultivators.
They thought that the mercenaries might try to intimidate the boy like they did with every newbie.
It was an unspoken rule that everyone would try to pressurize the newbie.
The guild would also not interrupt them as well.
This served as entertainment for these mercenaries while a test of morality for the guild.
The Guild can test whether the person who wants to register would have the qualification to even deal with the kind of work they had to do in the future.
*Tap*
*Tap*
*Clomp*
Under The eerie silence Noah made his way towards the counter while Xin Yan also started following behind him.
Their steps echoed in the hall as none of these mercenaries even dared to breathe.
Xin Yan's face was still a little pale, ever since they had left the Long Clan she had come to see so many faces of Noah but this one was the most shocking.
It was like he was a proud warrior that was ready to annihilate anyone that dared to provoke him.
'He is like those God of Wars from legends!'
She turned to look at Elysia who had been oddly silent ever since they entered this area. She was stumped seeing the scene in front of her eyes. Elysia was frozen in the air, not even moving from the place they had stood since the beginning.
Elysia was looking at Noah with a look of trance, Xin Yan could see her twin peaks heaving up and down, a sign that her breath became a little rapid.
She was biting her lower lips, seemingly having an internal struggle at this moment.
'What is wrong with this woman!'
Xin Yan thought in her mind with a confused look on her face, despite being married and having a kid Xin Yan had practically zero experience in love related matters.
What she thought to be true love, turned out to be a sham. She was tricked because of her inexperience in the world's affairs.
Shaking her head she ignored her and hurriedly walked behind Noah, who had already reached the counter.
".. How can I help You?!"
Despite being nervous after seeing the scene in front of her, the woman, who was also the receptionist behind the counter, asked.
One could hear nervousness lacing her voice.
She could not help it, although she did not know what Noah had done before, the look in his eyes gave her chills.
Even though Noah had retracted his aura, he could not stop the indifference to appear in his eyes.
The actions he had honed for years were not that easy to suppress,
" I want to register as a mercenary!"

Just like any other day, Li Rong had been working as the receptionist at the front desk of the eternal jade guild.
She was referred to this job by her friend when she had just moved to this city.
She was in need of work to survive, with her talent her cultivation proceeded smoothly but she needed money for her cultivation resources.
She was already at the foundation establishment stage at the age of 19.
No one knew her real age other than Ma Ning and Yu Ming. To the rest of the people she was just a little talented young lady in her 20 or 30s.
Even at the age of 100s of years the cultivators preserved their young appearance.
With her beautiful appearance and talent, she was naturally a target of many people but with her brute strength and cold attitude, she scared everyone away.
Even in this hall, she had received confessions from almost half of the mercenaries. While the rest chickened out seeing her way of dealing confessions.
She had been fearless and unwavering from the day she was born.
But that changed today, it all started when a boy walked into the mercenary section with the company of a very beautiful woman. Even more beautiful than herself.
She was ready for the usual Newbie bashing by the mercenaries, even though somewhere in her heart she did not want the boy to go through the process
She could not hide astonishment in her eyes when she saw that no one in the guild made a move on the boy but stared at him with fear in their eyes.
Some of them even dropped the things they were holding and trembled in fear.
She could not understand what had just happened, how could a boy scare these scary looking veterans who had been fighting with deadly beasts all of their lives.
Her heart could not help but tremble when that same boy whom Everyone in the room got scared of turned to look at her and started walking in her direction.
Li Rong's legs almost gave in when she saw the emotionless look in the boy's eyes looking at her with disinterest.
It was the first time she had been looked by someone this way. It was like she was not even a loving being In his eyes.
But the fighting spirit in heart did not let her back down let alone fear some second generation rich guy with fancy clothes.
She gathered all of her courage and spoke up.
"...How ..Can I help you?"
Even after summoning all of her will power just to ask this question, her voice could not help but quiver.
"I want to register as a mercenary!"
Her words broke everyone from their thoughts as they looked at each other in shock.
"Did you see that?!"
"That woman, That Icy Blockhead is trembling in fear!"
"Our ice goddess has been defiled!"
Hearing the cries of people, Li Rong could not help but blush. Never in her life did she have to bear this much shame.
"Who is that boy though, Not only does he possess such a killing Intent but he also made our Ice Blockhead blush!"
"Indeed, I never saw him before in my life."
"I thought she would end up lonely and go past her prime age by staying alone. Who would have thought she would find someone attractive."
"I thought she had other preferences!"
Everyone turned to look at the man who said the last line and secretly gave him thumbs up.
