Chapter 100 (2/2)

Claire stopped talking, turned around, and sipped her wine. It had always been her riding on Little Leopard, but today, their positions had changed.

“Um, thank you for saving me……” A soft and gentle voice said from in between the two.

Claire turned around, and saw the pale faced waitress who was struggling to smile. When Claire turned around once more, she saw that the dead man’s severed hand was still holding onto the girl’s palm. No wonder her expression was so unsightly.

“Get it off of her,” Claire ordered Jean, who was right behind her, emotionlessly.

Jean obeyed. He stepped forward, grabbed the dead man’s hand, then pulled it off.

“Thank you, thank you very much,” The waitress thanked them hurriedly.

“You don’t have to thank us, it was nothing.” Claire indifferently waved for the waitress to leave, then looked at the owner and said, “Owner, do you have any rugosa rose tea?“

”Ah, truly sorry, customer. We, we only have wine and water here.” The owner replied shakily. He had just seen the young man’s terrifying way of doing things and his companion’s gruesome actions, so he spoke more cautiously than usual.

“Commander, such a small place can’t have any flowers.” Camille softly sighed.

Everybody behind Camille rolled their eyes. It was all because of this guy that Claire had become so evil! Claire simply had to drink rugosa rose tea after venting out her anger, but after searching the entire town, they couldn’t find any.

“Um, um I grow roses in my garden. If you don’t mind, you can come to my house. I have stored some dried flowers too,” the waitress said cautiously.

“Oh, is that so? Then let’s go.” Claire immediately stood up, about leave.

Li Yuewen rolled her eyes, wanting to scold her, but thinking of Claire’s dark mood today, she let it go.

“Owner, my little brother will be back soon, tell him I will first bring my saviors home.” The waitress called to the bar owner.

“Okay, okay, okay.” The owner hurriedly nodded his head, seeing off the scary group to the distance.

The waitress took off her apron then led them out the door.

“This brat only knows how to live it up.” Li Yuewen followed behind, muttering all the while, unsatisfied.

“You have trained her harsh enough recently, let her take a break today.” Li Mingyu said, feeling a slight headache. On their journey, Li Yue Wen’s methods of training has reached a severe level. Claire had to be on guard even when sleeping, or else her throat would have been slit open. Li Yue Wen often planned surprise attacks at night to develop Claire’s alertness. As a result, Claire fought with dark circles under her eyes and resisted her sleepiness as she was constantly awakened by Li Yue Wen’s sneak attacks. Her alertness improved, but the dark circles under her eyes became more severe too.

The young girl walked in front, but continuously looked back at the young man behind her. He had golden hair and lovely green eyes. Although his dark circles were a bit severe, they couldn’t conceal his peerless aura. It was this young man who had just saved herself from the clutches of the evil person, otherwise, who knows how it would have ended. Her little brother was out too. If it wasn’t for this young man, then the result would be unthinkable. The young girl’s heart began to beat faster.

Meanwhile, Claire was looking completely unhappy. The wind leopard followed them from behind at the very back. When it was carried by Claire, it had been terrified out of its wits. Now, it didn’t even dare to get close to her.

“My family is only I and my little brother. Today, he went to the Mountain of Lost Souls. That crazy little, he said that recently there some kind of strange beast was about to come into being and that he wants to capture it and sell it for money.” The girl started to talk to Claire. She didn’t know what to say, so she only brought up the topic of her annoying little brother.

“Strange beast?” Camille became interested. He asked, “Did your little brother say what kind of strange beast it was?

“He did, that lying brat, he said it was a deity beast,” the girl replied helplessly, feeling a slight headache. “How could a deity beast appear here? And how could he capture it?”

Deity beast? Li Yuewen and Li Mingyu exchanged glances and both saw doubt within each other’s eyes.

“In any case, my little brother brags about how he can use a little Dou Qi. He always thinks he’s some kind of expert.” The girl said exasperatedly as she lead everybody to the edge of the small town.

There was a very small garden, ivy crawling on the wooden fence, the small table and a few chairs under the grape rack in the garden seeming exceptionally comfortable.

“Benefactors, please sit down, I will go make tea.”The girl seemed a little embarrassed. “Just sit outside, the rooms are very messy.”

Claire lightly nodded her head, and sat down immediately without care for manners. Walter sat down silently immediately after her, because he had noticed there weren’t enough chairs. He didn’t want to stand, so he sat down first. Camille was smiling as he followed the girl inside to make the rugosa rose tea.
