Chapter 75 (1/2)

Claire’s heart tightened. It can’t be, the divine princess’s level was already so high that she was able to sense her slightly when she was invisible? The invisibility cloak had a time limit. If the divine princess continued to stay, then there would be trouble. Claire didn’t dare to move anymore. Since the divine princess could already sense that something was wrong, then if she moved, the divine princess was bound to discover her. There was a reason why she was the divine princess: the divine princess was not easy to deal with. Claire started to get worried. If she really continued to stay, then what would she do?

“Elder sister Qing, let’s go quicker, in a while, it’ll be too late and we won’t be able to see the dragon any more.” Xuanxuan Leng pulled on the edge of Liuxue Qing’s clothes, saying pitifully, “Quickly, if I don’t see it this time, perhaps Xuanxuan will never see one in her lifetime.”

“Xuanxuan.” Once Liuxue Qing heard this, her expression changed slightly, her wrinkled brows smoothing out, replaced with a somewhat pitying expression. Xuanxuan Leng’s body was very weak and had always been relying on the temple’s medicine to maintain her life. If there was some kind of mishap, perhaps she really wouldn’t live that long.

“Elder sister, let’s go quickly.” Xuanxuang Leng pulled on the edge of Liuxue Qing’s clothes eagerly.

“Ok, ok, behave well, Xuanxuan. I’ll bring you there right now. You can’t tell your elder brother when he comes back that I got you up in the middle of the night.” Liuxue Qing bent down and scooped Xuanxuan Leng up, quickly going out.

Claire watched the two go far away, letting out a sigh. In the end, they left. If she used up the time limit of the cloak this time, then strong magic had to be poured into it.

Just as Claire was feeling relieved, she saw Xuanxuan Leng, who was hugging onto Liuxue Qing’s neck and lying on her shoulder, poke out her small head and silently smile at Claire.

Claire’s pupils instantly widened.

The little girl saw her! Claire was a little surprised. In other words, the reason why Xuanxuan Leng was so impatient for going out and looking at a dragon was not because she wanted to go see, but because she wanted to tell Liuxue Qing to leave! Was she protecting her?! Why would that little girl want to protect her? Why did she treat her so well?

Thinking of this, Claire also turned to Xuanxuan Leng and revealed a smile, then nodded her head lightly.

After Xuanxuan Leng gave a mischievous wink, she went back into Liuxue Qing’s embrace, slowly going far away.

Claire immediately turned and read the barrier’s undulation, then went past the barrier. She put the treasure away carefully, then quickly went back the way she came. Just as Claire lept over the temple’s tall wall, the invisibility cloak’s time limit arrived. Claire’s figure instantly appeared.

Claire put away the cloak, then disappeared silently into the night.

Just when Claire arrived back at the dark alley she and Ben were at before and stabilized her balance, a strange, imperceptible movement suddenly whipped through the air. Claire’s heart tightened. The strange figure flashed to the side. The next moment, a shiny dagger slashed at Claire’s hair, cutting off a few strands of Claire’s hair. The hair lightly floated to the ground.

“Your guts are pretty big, actually daring to infiltrate into the temple of Light and steal something in the middle of the night!” A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind Claire.

Claire turned, facing a pair of cold eyes.

Black clothes, abnormally exceptional skills, a voice that she seemed to have heard before.

Claire looked at the person behind her and was a bit stunned. This person was the female assassin from that night, the person who could have killed her, but didn’t.

Claire watched the woman in front of her silently. Although this woman made a swipe with her dagger, she didn’t have any killing intent. Without knowing why, Claire didn’t truly dislike the woman.

“What are you doing, going to steal something from the temple of Light and not going to sleep this late?” The woman snorted.

“Wrong, I wasn’t stealing, it’s called borrowing.” Claire shook her head, looking even more guilty.

The female assassin put away the dagger, looking at Claire with cold eyes. “Hah, I’ve never met anyone as shameless as you. It’s clearly stealing, but you say that’s incorrect.” She said sourly.

“Well, it can’t be that you’re wandering around here instead of sleeping this late at night for chatting with me here, right?” A faint smile appeared from the corner of Claire’s mouth. This women, her skill was abnormal. Also, last time Walter said that she had a faint Dark aura. Who on earth was she then? Why did she feel like this person seemed to know who she was?

“Stinking brat, you dare to argue against me?” The female assassin frowned.

“I don’t dare.” Claire was a bit puzzled at the female assassin’s tone. It sounded like her age wasn’t that old, but she had an elderly tone, it was truly puzzling.

“Quickly call your stupid dragon to leave.” After saying this sentence, the female assassin disappeared into thin air.
