Madam Ge looked at the people in her restaurant and sighed.

”Hila, how has business been?” a chatty young man said and Madam Ge threw him a glare.

”Sorry, I mean Madam Ge.” he chuckled softly.

”That is not why we are here. Someone stepped out of the Baju Valley, who was it?” a frowning man said.

”Straight to the point as always, Se Tibe.” the young man smiled.

”No one has been sent there for thirty years. Who would survive that long?” a beautiful woman said. She was veiled in soft white, making her out as ethereal.

”The demon general of old is the only person I can think of. Still, that is very impossible that he survived that valley all theses centuries.” an old man said. They all looked to Madam Ge in question.

”Stop all your assumptions. It is Tie Nse's student.” Madam Ge said and they all frowned. Soon, their eyes turned to a man by the corner.

”Patriarch never said anything about having a student.” the old man shrugged.

”He got a new student and shoved him in the Baju Valley.” Madam Ge said cleaning glasses, ”In fact, you just missed them.”

Silence took the place as even the smiling young man looked to be in thought.

”Who is this boy?” the veiled woman asked.

”Where did he find such a person?”

”Am I the only one who wants to know how he did it?” they started to ask at the same time.

”I have told you what I can. This is only because you are entitled to know. Any other information...” she narrowed her eyes, ”You know the rules.”

”Ha ha... Sorry Madam Ge. Of course we will pay for the information. How much do you want for it?”
