The sickly looking man looked at the youngest with a stern gaze, "Explain," his voice, while not yelling, is akin to thunder to the young man.
"Yes, Grand Elder," he proceed to tell the older man of who he send the two men after.
"A couple with great bodies and amazing feature. Especially the male. He possessed an exotic white and black hair, a pattern that will earn us a lot of money. His silver eyes is another exotic feature.
As for the women, she is an amazing beauty, with purple eyes and brown hair. Her purple eyes would have dazzled a lot of our customers," after he was done describing the pair, the Grand Elder looked at him while stroking his chin.
Sweating profusely, he almost collapse in relief when the sickly-looking man gave him a verdict that favour him.
"It seem you underestimate your foe. No matter, it sometime happen. But you must not go after them anymore. There is a high chance they are from one of the more powerful families in the other cities, maybe even from the capital.
After all, they manage to defeat 2 peak Genesis Formation. So, there should be a more powerful expert nearby. To be safe, make sure to not do anything towards them, less the Craw Family would be in ruin," the rest of the family nodded, bowing to the Grand Elder.
One by one, they dispersed, leaving the young man behind. He merely looked dissatisfied before his expression schooled into a calmer one.

While the Craw Family was having a discussion about the two, the couple is busy looking at the Gold-Tier Slaves. There are 2 males and 2 females Gold-Tier Slaves. For some reason, Ina decided to take a look at the female slaves only.
As her husband, he wondered why she would do such thing but decided to not question it, instead just go with the flow. As his father said, happy wife, happy life.
"Hhmm, not this one," Ina pushed one of the pictures aside. Ryker merely glance at it and immediately agreed with her decision.
"How does such a ... beefy-looking woman become a Gold-Tier slave?" she questioned.
"While in terms of looks she is not that attractive, she is the strongest slave we have. Remember when I said that the strongest combat slave we have at the moment is only at the 6th Stage Genesis Gathering.
Well, it did not include the Tier Slaves, as she is a peak Genesis Formation expert. It is one of the reason why she is at the Gold Tier. The fact she also an excellent housekeeper is a reason for her to be a Gold-Tier Slave," hearing the explanation, the two nodded, accepting the reason.
Though that does not mean they planned to get her in the near future, or ever that is.
"How about this one? Is there anything special about her?" Ina asked of the other Gold Tier slave.
"Yes, she is a special one. Let just say, the story of her becoming one of our Gold Tier slave is an interesting one. As for her speciality, her cultivation is at the peak of Genesis Gathering, and she is an expert combatant.
She is also a capable housekeeper, able to do chores and is a decent cook. Aside from that, she is a beautiful woman, which what allowed her to become a Gold-Tier slave. In fact, she is the most beautiful slave we have in our entire history. And we don't lie of it,"
Ina looked at the portly man before nodding, "We like to take her," when Ryker about to ask her reasoning, the portly man let out an awkward cough.
"She, is a special one," he started slowly. "Unlike others, she become slaves on her own will. And she paid us to keep her. So, we decided to allow her to choose the person she wanted to serve, instead of selling her to the one who paid the most.
After all, the amount she gave us is not little," Ina merely looked at the portly man with confidence as she said, "In that case, we are going to convince her,"
The portly man just looked as shock as Ryker no doubt. He stared at Ryker, who merely shrugged his shoulder. Even the silver eyed man did not know what his wife is thinking. Whatever it is, he will let her do as she please unless it could harm all of them.
"Let me lead you to her room then," the portly man said as he walker towards one direction. The two followed, with the woman being more excited to see the same than the male.

"Here we are, I will talk to her first," the portly man walked to the door and knocked.
"What is it?" female voice asked, as the portly man began to tell the reason for the visit, "There are some people that is interested in buying you," he told her.
The voice inside sounded like she was scoffing, as she replied, "Throw them away. I am planning to stay here for my entire life,"
"Remember our deal. I will return back the item in your possession with the exception of those used to pay for your expenses if you don't accept to at least meet them," the man threatened her.
A loud sigh was heard from the room. "Fine, I will let them see me. But I promise you, I will not be convinced to take him as my Master,"
"Really," Ina asked, "In that case, how about a wager?"
Hearing this, the voice seem to be taken aback, not like anyone else is any better.
"Well, what is the wager?" she asked.
"It simple," Ina said, "If I manage to convince you to accept both me and my husband as your Master, you will do one thing, and you cannot refuse.
But if you win, we will give you enough money to buy you, and help extend the length of your stay. After all, there should be a limit of how much the money in your possession could last for your stay here," she pointed out.
"Well, she can stay for at least another 2 decades before she could no longer afford it," the portly man told Ina. The brunette looked at the door with a smile.
"So, do you accept the wager?" she asked.
The silent went on for nearly 4 minutes before the voice inside sighed as she said, "Very well, I accept the wager. Just remember to pay me full," she reminded Ina.
"And remember that you cannot disobey one of my order," Ina retaliate. Seeing the two agreed to a wager he did not agree with, Ryker decide to trust his wife in this one.
