Chapter 105: Eva

The evolution of the forest shocked everyone in the clan. And many people went to investigate the matter but to no avail. They couldn't find the reason behind the change of the forest.

As for Nolan, no one paid him any attention; he was just a mediocre disciple of the clan without any elemental energy inside his body.

The changes in the forest were too heaven-defying. Who would think that the evolution of the forest had anything to do with him.

Nolan sighed in relief when no one came to him for questioning. If higher-ups of the clan had suspected him, it would become very hard for him to hide the truth, he was only eighteen years old, after all. No matter how cunning he was, he could never compare to those old foxes of the clan.

Ten days passed and Nolan continued to practice his sword intent. However, sometime later, he realised that his sword intent wasn't a simple sword intent like others!

It had something else inside it. He could sense the traces of elements in his sword intent whenever he used his sword.

The realisation shocked the young man. His body wasn't compatible with any element. There shouldn't be any elemental power in his body. 

However, now he realised that there were traces of elements in his sword intent.

Although there was a trace of the elements in his sword intent. He couldn't tell which element was it; therefore, he continued to practice his sword skills in front of the mountain inside the egg-like stone.

However, on this day a visitor appeared in his house, a familiar visitor. When he saw the face of the newcomer, a surprised look emerged on his handsome face.

"Eva, what are you doing here?" Nolan asked confusedly.

Eva glared at him furiously, but then, a cunning smile appeared on her face, "You gave me two years at that time, now, two years over. You can't shove me away anymore."

Immediately, Nolan's temple was covered in a cold sweat, 'Shit, how did I forget about that?'

However, the expression on his face didn't change. He looked at the beautiful face in front of him, speaking, "What are you talking about? What two years? I can't remember anything."

Eva narrowed her eyes when she heard him denying their deal so bluntly, 'How shameless.' thought the beauty, but then curled her lips in a mocking smile, 'Trying to act smart in front of me, hmph!'

"Alright, from now on, I am going to live in your house," As she spoke, she looked around at the broken bed, at the chair which was in a terrible condition. A football-sized hole could be seen at the top of the roof, sun rays squeezed from the hole, entering his broken house.

However, the lady didn't seem to be affected by the condition of the house.

At first, Nolan looked at her blankly, but when he realised what she had said, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, "Wh-what?! You can't live with me. Do you think your family would let you do that? If they knew they would skin me alive."

Nolan was sweating profusely when he thought about the consequences of the matter.

"Hmph! Don't try to bring up my family in this matter. I have talked with them. At first, they were against me, but when I threatened them with suicide, hehe." a complacent look emerged on her face when she described her deeds.

Nolan was left speechless… this girl.

"Umm… so what now?" Nolan looked uncomfortably at the lady.

Though he could understand the thinking process of Eva's parents.

Eva couldn't cultivate at all. Though she was extremely beautiful, and many youngsters wanted to make her theirs. In the end, she would just become a plaything for them. She could never become their wife; even concubines would have higher status than her; everything only because she couldn't cultivate.

It was also the reason why Ivan didn't pursue her anymore. She was just an ordinary girl who couldn't even cultivate. Now he was engaged with the daughter of the clan leader. However, he would still come to Eva from time to time, trying to lure her into his den; she was an absolute beauty after all. 

However, rules of the clan were strict which protected even ordinary people of the clan. No one could harm them. That was the reason why a beauty like Eva was still safe in between so many wolves. No one could force her against her will.

Nonetheless, when Nolan heard that she had already talked with her parents, an awkward expression emerged on his face, 'What now?'

At this moment if he was to drive her away, everyone in the clan would definitely despise him. Most of all, her admirers would come to him, trying to take revenge for her in the hope to get in her good boy list.

Furthermore, he himself didn't dislike...cough, the company of such a beauty.

Nolan sighed at last, and said, "Alright, you can live here but don't expect much from me."

After hearing that Nolan agreed with her, the lady became incredibly happy and jumped at him, tightly hugging him.

Nolan felt awkward when he felt two soft moulds pressing against his chest. His breathing became hurried. A sweet virgin smell of a lady invaded his nostrils.

"Ahh!"

Suddenly, the lady jumped away from Nolan In fright.

"Wh-what happened?" Nolan asked her in confusion.

Lady lowered her beet-red face, muttering, "Som-something hard was po-poking on my belly."

As she said, the lady felt so embarrassed that she wanted nothing more but to dig a hole before hiding.

Nolan stood at the same place, he didn't know what to say in response, her reply made him utterly speechless.

Eventually, he placed his hand in front of his manhood, trying to hide the embarrassing sight.

Anyways, who could blame him? He was only eighteen years old after all. No matter how mature he acted, he was just a teenager nonetheless. 

"If-if you want—"

"I am going to practice my sword arts." Before the lady could finish her sentence, the boy dashed out of the broken house in a panic.

Looking at his escaping shadow, the lady giggled at his cute response. It was the difference in him and those people who coveted her body. That was the reason she fell for him. He never looked at her like those disgusting fellows in the clan.

"Wait, I am also coming," the Lady didn't remain inside the house, and followed Nolan. 

When he saw the lady was struggling to catch up with him, Nolan slowed down his speed, a complicated feeling appeared inside his heart. He himself didn't know what to do with this stubborn lady.

"Follow closely behind me if you don't want to get eaten by a beast," Nolan warned her before continuing.

"Oh.. are you worried about me?"

Nolan heard her question but didn't reply, continuing to walk towards the forest.

The lady chuckled triumphantly when Nolan didn't say anything and followed closely behind him.

"Halt!" a booming shout came from in front of the duo.

Nolan looked at the group of the youngster standing in front of them, looking at him disdainfully.

"What is the meaning of this?" Nolan looked at the group and frowned, he didn't know what these people were trying to block him.

There were five people in front of Nolan. After his question, a man took a step forward and stood in front of the other four, an arrogance was plastered on his face.

He looked at Nolan and turned his heated gaze towards Eva, "Nolan, I know your brother is the greatest genius of our clan with a special constitution, but remember, you aren't your brother."

"What do you want to say?" Nolan narrowed his eyes at the man.

"I want to say that you can't enter the spirit forest anymore," the man sneered and an arrogant look appeared on his face.

"And why is that?" Nolan didn't show a surprised look on his face, he had endured many things in these few years, even his brother left him because he couldn't cultivate any element. 

However, he still felt something amiss, because no one would be so daring to act artogbatly in the clan. There must be a reason behind these people's actions.

Jack smiled when he heard Nolan's question, "Because the clan doesn't want a waste like you to enter the forest and use our resources."

Nolan smiled when he heard the man. He knew why this was happening. The forest had been evolved, making it a valuable asset to the clan. Now, the clan wanted to control the forest more strictly. Letting only talented youngsters of the clan enjoy its resources.

Moreover, if the clan had let anyone enter the forest, its value would decrease in the eyes of the clansmen. They won't cherish it if everything was given to them very easily.

"Brother Nolan —"

However, before Eva could finish her sentence, Nolan interrupted, "Don't worry, these people aren't enough to do any harm to me."

Looking at the confident smile of Nolan, Eva didn't speak anything; however, worry didn't lessen on her face.

Nolan looked at the boy in front of him and smiled before asking, "Uhh.. what did you say your name is?"

The boy frowned when he heard his question, though, he still replied, "I didn't tell you my  name."

"Uhh… so nameless brother—"

"Jack. my name is jack," the boy instantly told Nolan his name when he heard someone calling him nameless.

"Ohh, so Jack, you said I am a waste. What will you become if I defeat you?" Jack suddenly felt a chill inside his body when he heard Nolan.

However, he immediately discarded the wary feeling inside his heart. How could someone without any elemental power threaten him? That was almost impossible.

After thinking that, an evil smile appeared on Jack's face. He looked at Nolan before replying, "If you can defeat me. I won't stop you from entering the forest."
