Sam and his team members didn't sleep that night. They just took the restaurant over after the boss of the inn closed and waited there.
They wanted to see if the other party wanted to try to come for them that night itself.
Sam and is tasting some dishes as he read some data regarding the research.
At this time, someone knocked on the door attracting their attention. Everyone looked at the entrance of the restaurant.
A ragged young man is standing there, looking a bit exhausted. She has a charming face and beautiful skin, but her hair and bruises are clearly indicating her difficult situation.
The group frowned, Night Ghost sent his ghosts to take a quick patrol around the surroundings and since they didn't find anything, Sam spoke.
"Who are you? What are you doing at this hour?"
"Ma.. May I know if Sam is here?" She asked timidly.
Everyone was surprised for a moment, but they became vigilant the next instant and were about to draw their weapons, they couldn't identify her cultivation, so they definitely thought of her as an equal, they didn't want to consider the possibility of her being a normal person and underestimate her.
"Stop."

Sam spoke calmly as he looked at the woman. Everyone cannot sense her cultivation, but he has energy vision and he can see if there was any interaction between her body and the spiritual energy. But he couldn't see anything.
"I am Sam, what do you want from me?"
The lady looked at Sam and slowly approached them as she spoke.
"I came looking for you after I saw the stone plaque, currently the poison church wouldn't respond instantly, I want to see if you want a maid."
When they saw her walking towards Sam, they became vigilant once again, but Sam gestured them to calm down and asked.
"I am here for the heirloom. I wouldn't just sit around for the attack. I wouldn't stay here for long enough to need a maid."
Sam replied casually and turned his attention back to the research data.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe knelt on the floor and touched held Sam's feet as she asked with pleading eyes.
"Master, can we talk in private? I might not be skilled at anything else, but I am sure my service will satisfy you. Please agree to my request and take me in."
Sam frowned as he looked at her, her words are definitely laced with different hidden meanings, but he is not focused on it, he is currently focusing on something else. He took a sniff in the air as he looked at the lady with a deep frown.
After a few seconds, as he looked at her deep in the eyes, he said.
"Okay, you are hired. Just for the time, I will be staying here."
He waved his hand a bunch of liquors and a scroll appeared on the table.
"Do you know how to read?"
The lady nodded in a daze.
"Then use the scroll and the instructions in it to create a cocktail drink with this."
She was stunned and didn't know how to react for a second.
"I am talking to you, what are you looking at me for?"
"Yes. Yes."
She hurriedly stood up and started preparing liquor. The rest of the team looked at Sam weirdly, they knew better than to think that Sam did this for her body. But they don't know enough to understand why he would hire her.
"You guys, leave us alone. Take your positions and be ready.
Did you place the restriction on the plaque properly?"
Sam asked Sia.
She nodded with a smile.
"They shouldn't be able to store it away and it would be hard for them to destroy it. If they did, just place one in the city center.
When the customers and the innkeeper learn of this, buy off the inn in case we might have to stay here for a long time."
He then turned towards the woman and asked her.
"What is your opinion on this? Do you think the poison church will attack us immediately, or will they take their time?"
The lady looked at Sam in confusion. She doesn't know why he is asking her, it might just be a casual question for his amusement, but his faint smile and that meaningful glance, made her think twice before she answered.
" I think that the church will not attack instantly. From the rumors in the city, they are in an extremely weaker state. After all, their recent pillar died and there is already a threat at their doorstep.
But since you are that detailed, not trying to hide, they will be more frightened and spy youi for the next two to three days.
They will make sure that you are as vulnerable as you can be, before attacking."
"So, what did you do prior to this?"
"Nothing Sir."
For the next few days, Sam and the group didn't care much about their own safety as they roamed around the city as they owned it.
Everyone knew who they are and they are extremely afraid to sell them anything. They are afraid that the sect would deal with them. But the fear was only for the locals, the foreigners didn't hold back, particularly the spending power of Sam is something that they welcomed with delight.
The team observed the spies who think that they are discreet enough but as bright and open as sunrise to them.
Sam roamed alone, even though Gran or Sia followed him from the dark, most of the time he and his new maidservant are roaming around. Even though he could carry everything in the storage, he deliberately made her carry many things from time to time as if he is afraid that he wouldn't be able to show off that he has a servant.
As he shopped everywhere, he always asked.
"What do you want?"
At first, she thought he asked normally and he is asking about what she wants from a shop. But soon, she could guess that he is insinuating something else.
Every time, she thought of saying something, she held herself back and couldn't say it.
She believed in her current stage, the other party wouldn't help her, she tried to make some advances in the past few days, but there was no response whatsoever from Sam.
No matter how obvious she is, he always found a way to stop her.
As they currently roamed around one restaurant to another, he is asking the same thing again and again, but there is no response as usual.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe bought some street food and made her carry it while eating and roaming around.
Sam stopped at a garment store where a tailor artisan is doing an excellent job and started taking a look.
The maid is in deep thought as she tried to wrestle between her thoughts, there is a reason she escaped the church the first chance she got and there is also a reason why she came to meet Sam.
But she is not confident that her words alone will convince the other party with their current servant and boss relationship.
At this moment, as Sam looked through the garments inside the shop and went to try some, someone appeared behind her and dragged her into an alley after covering her mouth.
She struggled a lot, but to no avail.
When she was finally released, she saw the person who is another woman and widened her eyes in horror. She panicked as she tried to think of a way to escape, but every idea that came to her mind needs her to have some strength of her own which she clearly doesn't possess.
The other party is also a woman and when she saw the maid's struggle, she couldn't help but feel a bit happy.
"You are indeed a slut aren't you? You already found another man only a few days after your husband's death? And to think that you acted all high mighty."
She started slapping the maid a few times and took out a jade container.
"Do you know what this is?" The woman asked and judged by the horrific expression on the maid's face, she definitely knew what that is.
"Since you are serving your new master like some slut every night with drinks, today add this to that and make him drink."
"No, No I can't do that."
"Of course, you will do that. You didn't forget what I have in my hands do you?"
s
With that, she crouched down and took out one of the wine jars in the contents that Sam is making the maid carry and replaced half of the wine with the contents of the jar.
She slapped the maid again before she left the alley.
After a few minutes, the maid gritted her teeth and walked towards Sam with the contents, he is still in the changing room.
After he came out, both of them went along with the rest of the day normally.
At night, when the team met up in the restaurant, she took out the alcohol and started mixing them, the last one is the bottle that was tampered with, she hesitated, but still mixed it before nervously taking it to Sam.
