Chapter 199 (1/2)

Prince Banis and the alluring woman looked over at Carter, not understanding what he was doing. Qi Aoshuang and Leng Lingyun also eyed him as he approached.

“Good evening. Could I borrow a bit of your fire?” Carter’s icy face revealed a trace of a smile.

Prince Banis blinked. Had he seen wrong? The stone-faced man could smile? The knights were even more shocked. It was the first time they had seen this powerful person take the initiative to talk to someone else, especially to strangers! The alluring woman’s eyes also darkened, watching with narrowed eyes.

Qi Aoshuang’s response left Carter stiff.

“No. I’m sorry, there’s not enough room,” Qi Aoshuang responded heedlessly. She took a sip of her cup, not even giving Carter so much as a glance.

“But isn’t there a lot of room?” Carter then did something that shocked prince Banis and the rest even more. He smiled as he plopped down next to Leng Lingyun.

How shameless! Qi Aoshuang was annoyed. She did not want to have any connections to this person. He was definitely difficult to deal with. This was her intuition. She did not want problems to arise.

Carter eyed Qi Aoshuang fixedly. What he said next made Qi Aoshuang shiver. “Young lady, your voice is very similar to a person I know.”

He watched Qi Aoshuang intensely to see her reaction.

But Qi Aoshuang showed no change in expression. “What? I’ve never met someone like you before.” She paused, then said venomously, “It takes a certain level of skill to flatter others.”

Carter’s expression. He examined Qi Aoshuang’s expression more closely, but was not able to discern any clues. He was certain that this ordinary looking girl’s voice was the exact same as the person who had been seeking to battle, Claire. Claire Hill was like fireworks, falling after displaying her peak splendor. Naturally, he did not believe she had committed matricide in order to ingratiate herself with the Temple. Was this ordinary looking girl the previously shining Claire? He inspected her face with rapt attention, but was disappointed to see no similarities. Her every freckle was so realistic, there was no way she was using some kind of disguise. There was no traces of uses of potions either. It seems he had made a mistake.”

“I must have mistakened you for someone else, my mistake.” Carter smiled, standing up to bow apologetically, then left.

Qi Aoshuang and Leng Lingyun did not respond, continuing to make tea and roast meat. Right now, all they needed to do was wait for Ben to come out of his reclusive training.

Prince Banis’s party and Qi Aoshuang and Leng Lingyun lodged on each side of the ravine, mutually ignoring the other.

The night passed by peacefully.

As day broke, the sun rays filled the entire ravine. The crisp bird calls could be heard.

Prince Banis left his tent a little gloomily. Just as before, the captivating women did not let him do anything to her.

“Dear…” Prince Banis’s hand was pulled tenderly. “Are you still mad? I already said as long as you fulfill this wish of mine, I’ll become yours.”

Feeling the soft sensation on his elbow, Banis discarded his floomy thoughts. He wrapped his arm around her curvy waist, nodding. “Alright, baby. You promised me.”

“Mm, of course, darling,” the flirtatious woman responded coyly. Her eyes flashed with loathing, but it disappeared in a wink. Inwardly, she cursed, this disgusting pig. Did he think she was some kind of playing? If he wasn’t born a prince, he would be a nobody. She just needed the cretin to attract the dragon race’s attention for a moment. Humph. Whether he lived or died did not matter to her, as long as she could get that thing!

“Everyone, get up! Get ready to leave!” Banis coldly commanded.

“Young master, where are we going?” the captain asked, unsettled. Was their idiot prince really that dumb?

“Of course into Dragon Valley,” Banis replied haughtily.

The captain’s mouth dropped, staring at the prince incredulously. Wasn’t that certain death? All just for that woman?

“We’ll just take a look,” Banis urged impatiently. Although he was perverted, he was not a fool. He knew how strong dragons were, but the beauty only wished to witness a dragon, that was all. It couldn’t be that difficult. They would just enter to take a look, then leave immediately.

Just take a look? That simple? A trace of doubt flashed in the captain’s eyes. That bimbo only wanted to take a look? Perhaps it was so.

After waking up and eating, they saw Qi Aoshuang and Leng Lingyun had lazily just come out of their tents.
