Chapter 56: [no title] (1/2)

(TL: Youwusali -> Yowusali)

Feng Yixuan grasped Claire’s hand tightly, staring at Claire with wide eyes. The next moment, Feng Yixuan covered his eye and crouched down, groaning.

“Next time you dare to do this, I’ll hit your other eye.” Claire said icily, retracting her fist.

“Ouch, I was telling the truth.” Feng Yixuan stood up and dropped his hand with a mournful expression, revealing a panda eye. This was Claire’s masterpiece from just then. During the moment when everybody still hadn’t come back to their senses, Claire’s hand was even faster than her thoughts. Pulling her hand out of Feng Yixuan’s tight grasp, she punched Feng Yixuan’s eye socket.

While Feng Yixuan grimaced with pain, Shui Wenmo watched gleefully at Feng Yixuan’s sorry figure, taking delight at his misfortune.

“What are you laughing about!” Feng Yixuan vented his heart’s rage onto Shui Wenmo, an icicle flying over.

But Shui Wenmo was already on guard for a while, pulling out his sword to block and then nimbly deflecting it. The two started fighting noisily again.

Claire sat down, looked at the girl who was completely covered in blood, thought for a moment, turned around and pulled out a set of her own clean clothes and a set of Jean’s clothes from her travel bag, and threw them at the two people.

“What are you guys planning on doing next?” Claire asked insipidly.

“Live while hiding our identities and go to and settle in Yowusali. Find a desolate village and live there for the rest of our lives.” The fallen knight answered like so.

Yowusali was the most backward country in the entire continent where the Temple of Light’s influence was the least deep.

“The Temple of Light won’t let you guys go.” Claire said coldly.

“Yes, I understand. I know the dark side of the Temple of Light that common people don’t know, naturally, they won’t let me go. But even though it’s like this, I’m still not going to wait for them to capture me. I will use all my power to protect her.” The fallen knight looked deeply at the girl sitting beside him. The girl looked deeply at the fallen knight. The two’s hearts were communicated without words.

“They really are a bitter fated couple.” Walter shrugged and said to Claire.

“Thank you, benefactors, for saving us today. Thank you.” The fallen knight struggled to get up and bow. “If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid we would have died mysteriously.”

Claire stopped him. “No need to bow. First, take care of your wounds.”

“I can’t trouble my benefactors any more. We will cross the border as soon as possible to Yowusali.” The fallen knight said seriously. He understood very deeply that if the holy knights who were chasing after them didn’t return to report, the Temple of Light would soon make new moves.

“Little girl, come, come.” Cliff beckoned at the girl. “Come, I’ll change your hair and eye color. It should stay for ten years and save a lot of trouble. Take care of yourselves.”

“Really?” The girl brightened, because her hair color and eye color had always hurt the people around her and she had been betrayed many times. Now that she heard her hair and eye color could be changed for so long, of course she was exceptionally happy.

“I can. Of course the medicine I make can last for about ten years.” Cliff said haughtily.

“Thank you, thank you, sir.” The girl happily thanked hurriedly.

The fallen knight looked at Cliff. He believed everything said by the holy knights. This elder was definitely the wizard sage Cliff. That was why he could easily overpower the five holy knights. But this was already not important.

Jean silently roasted the wild fare, not giving so much as a glance. Feng Yixuan and Shui Wenmo were still fighting fiercely. Cliff was dying the girl’s hair, the fallen knight watching them gratefully.

Claire sat down underneath a tree. Looking at the tree trunk, she looked up at the night sky that was getting darker and darker. Lightly touching her right hand’s glove, Claire frowned slightly. There were still many annoying matters: white emperor who was still in deep sleep and the dark mark on the back of her hand.

Feng Yixuan and Shui Wenmo went farther and farther away, fighting in the middle of the forest. When they were out of Claire and them’s sight, the two stopped. The two crouched down at the same time. Shui Wenmo said, “Was that my hallucination?”

“At first, I also thought I was hallucinating, but it definitely wasn’t.” Feng Yixuan said certainly.

“Right, Claire’s flame actually turned gold! What is going on?” Shui Wenmo stroked his chin suspiciously. “I’ve never seen a flame that color. Although it was only for a split second, it definitely changed color.”

“How do I know. We’ll just inspect it carefully in the future.” After he finished speaking, Feng Yixuan rapidly hit Shui Wenmo’s head and ran.

“Holy shit, you actually took advantage of the situation to hit me.” Shui Wenmo lept up and started attacking fiercely.
