The Story Never Ends
Chapter 194 - Conflict

"I…" Davion panicked and didn't know what to say.

"Did she see through my lies?" He pondered and since he wasn't sure, he decided to test the waters.

"Lady, it seems like you have been listening to our conversation. Although you may be strong, it is rude to do so." He reminded her.

"Shut up!"

"A fraud like you isn't qualified to lecture me. Just tell me who you are?" The woman scoffed.

"Damn, she is too arrogant." He cursed inwardly. But he didn't dare to show anger on his face.. He believed that this woman was certainly above the Domain Realm. After all, his Mind-Eye didn't work on her.

"Lady, why do you doubt me? You cannot call others so disrespectfully without any valid proof. I am definitely the Second Young Master of…" Before he could finish his sentence, the woman tapped on the desk and it began burning slowly.

The flames were white and strange in the sense that it was burning calmly without any hint of threat. This was completely different from Davion's blood-colored flame as his flame distorted the space and looked terrifyingly destructive.

In a couple of minutes, the desk turned into ashes causing Davion and the woman to sit face to face without anything separating in between them.

"What is she trying to do? With her abilities, destroying the table shouldn't even take a single second. Is she showing off her flames?" He was doubtful.

While he was pondering, another shocking thing happened that made him jump out in fright.

He saw tiny white flames automatically appearing in the same spot where the desk had perished. The flame grew bigger in size, and who knows how the desk which had been destroyed came into existence in the speed visible to the naked eyes.

"My God!" He exclaimed in disbelief.

The woman snapped her finger and the flames vanished into thin air. As for the desk, it had genuinely materialized. However, Davion was still not convinced. He put his hands on it and checked it properly.

"It's no different from earlier." He muttered and gazed at her intently for an explanation. He couldn't believe she could recreate a desk from nothing.

"Haha, you got caught red-handed. If you were really from the Vermilion Tribe then you would have been able to recognize it." The woman gave a sweet chuckle.

Listening to her voice and laughter confirmed that this woman is definitely young. Nonetheless, he wouldn't be sure about it. After all, in the cultivation world, transforming into a younger self or possessing a young body was not so difficult. Who knows she might be one of them?

"Eh! The Vermilion Tribe?" He didn't understand what she was trying to say.

Seeing his reaction, she shook her head and addressed herself. "You can call me Siena. Unlike you, I'm in fact from Phoenix Island."

"So, you can now cut to the chase and introduce yourself honestly." She ordered.

"This…"

"What a coincidence!" Davion became speechless. It was the second time he fell into trouble after spewing some random name.

"Indeed. You had many flaws in your story. If only there were powerful people instead of these baboons, they would have simply asked for you to transform." She added.

Davion nodded in understanding. Asking others to transform sounds quite disrespectful. Even if the baboons wanted to see it, they wouldn't say it out loud.

"I didn't lie about my name. I am Davion; the last surviving member of the Flame Tiger Clan that was wiped out long ago." He released a small part of his bloodline aura in his right hand which took the shape of the face of a tiger.

"Humm, I see. The tribe that betrayed their own species; the White Tiger Clan." She was amazed.

"Betrayed?" Davion was confused. It was his first time hearing this.

"Haiz, you are clueless about everything. Here I was thinking I was the one who had zero knowledge." Siena sighed.

"It looks like you are not from this world." The moment she said this, Davion's mouth twitched and this didn't escape her eyes.

"As I thought, you are hiding more from me. Come say it." He now had completely caught her attention. Who could have thought that she would run into someone so interesting and mysterious after running away from home? Especially when she was curious and wanted to know more about the outside world.

"You.." Davion was getting furious. This woman was getting annoying as time passed. Nonetheless, he couldn't do anything about it.

"Here I thought that I was strong after reaching level 40. But it was only my wishful thinking. I am getting bullied here by an unknown woman." He had various thoughts in his mind.

"Hehe, don't think about lying once again." Her evil laugh gave Davion goosebumps.

"Fuck. I will definitely get back to her in the future." He made up his mind. However, he didn't answer her straight away but instead replied, "I will answer you if you can tell me why you suppressed me with your bloodline the moment I entered here."

As for her releasing coercion when he was having a conversation with the baboon brothers, he could understand it. How could one not get angry when one lies openly about her home infront of her?

"Oh! I remember my flames getting out of control and trying to escape from my body. This has never happened to me before and shouldn't be happening to someone like…" She paused there and put her hands on her mouth abruptly.

"Phew, I nearly revealed more information." She thought.

His expression became solemn when he heard it.

"Even though she possesses a superior bloodline than mine, her flames still went out of hand near me. I believe it's not because it's weak but rather it must be due to my tattoo."

"What should I do if she inquires about it?" He began sweating. Besides, he didn't bother trying to know what she was hiding in the end. This was because there was only one thought in his mind. How should he react if she attempts to strip him off of his clothes?

Nevertheless, utterly out of his exception, she didn't continue on this topic any further. She simply waved her hand and declared, "You can start."

"Thank God" Davion sighed in relief and began answering by twisting the truth a little. He told his father escaped to the human world and gave birth to him. Currently, his father died, and he was the last surviving member of the tribe. Then using the secret method left behind by his father, he traveled all the way here.

"Is it true?" In response to him, Siena stood up all of a sudden and grabbed his hands. He became bewildered seeing her act this way.

"Of course. Do you think I will lie to you again?" He smiled despite not understanding why she was so agitated.

"Do you have a way back?" She asked immediately.

"I do." He blurted without hesitation.

"Can you take me with you?" She requested with a pleading tone. She knew that her tribe would soon replace out that she had escaped and they would definitely be coming for her.

"This.." He now found it difficult to answer. He was confused why she would have this odd and easy request. He knew that experts above the Domain Realm could swiftly create a void in space to travel between worlds.

"Does this mean that she isn't in the Venerable Stage as I had guessed? Or is there something that stops such experts from traveling through worlds?" Various scenarios played in his mind. But he couldn't come up with anything.

Seeing him lost in his thoughts, she spoke, "Is it possible?"

"Eh!" He finally came back to his senses and replied with difficulty, "I can. But it takes time and many rare materials are required."

Although he agreed, he would not let her do this easily. He would take away as much wealth as he can from her.

"Are you trying to build a large-scale teleportation formation?" She thought this way.

"Yes, yes." Davion smiled in agreement.

"Now I understand why you planned to visit the Sky Heavens Restaurant. You must be thinking of buying materials there, aren't you?" She guessed.

Davion nodded again and decided to go with the flow. However, her next words poured cold water over him.

"How about I pay for all these materials? I will even give you extra benefits for taking me there. But I will only pay once we reach there. I can't trust you yet." She reasoned.

"You.." This woman was too cheeky, and it was difficult to fool her. So, Davion said angrily, "I can't believe you too."

"You dare to put me in the same shoes as you?" She replied back in the same way.

"Humph! You are the suspicious one here and the one who can't be trusted at all. Not only do you hide your face, you even sneakily eardrop others' conversation. You look like a thief from inside out." He didn't go easy on her.

Previously, he would have never responded this way. But now it was different. He was confident that she wouldn't strike him because he had what she desired. Moreover, he felt satisfied talking back to her.

Siena didn't reply a word and simply stood there as a statue. She couldn't believe someone would provoke her and would be so rude to her. It was the first time she experienced this feeling.

It felt really bad and her anger surged outside as a result. White flames continuously emerged from her body and they flowed towards his hands as she was still holding them.
