Chapter 170:

Everyone sahat occurred fro over Lashi+a also hurried over Roger followed frohast and hurried over, but he was pulled back with force His arm was almost pulled out of its socket Emery turned to face Charles's cold face

”His grace said you are to stay quietly here with me” Charles had not been surprised at all, clearly aware of ould happen beforehand He had an iron grip, not letting Emery move half an inch

Before Claire could coht rays shot out Claire's vision blurred, and as she leaned against a tree, she realized that the light below her was actually froic forer

”Father, what are you doing?!” Katherine ran over ic formation also

”Katherine, calrabbed Katherine and pulled her into his embrace

”Grandfather, what are you doing! Why are you attacking elder sister?” Lashi+a was both angry and worried Seeing Claire pale even htened and she too want to rush in, but was stopped by Duke Gordan White Emperor and Black Feather, who had been on Lashi+a's shoulders, lept onto Claire's shoulders Both chirped and peeped worriedly

Duke Gordan's expression was coic formation with no hint of warmth in his eyes

”Roger! What are you doing? Let led with all her h looked pained, did not let go

Claire stood within the hing coldly ”The Te this Grand Devil Slayer nized this ic formation, because it was carved on the wall that honored the Goddess This ic formation was used to kill those of devil race, except in the carving, the els

Gradually, twelve cardinals donned in white appeared from different directions Each wore a necklace, the Calm of the Goddess It was shaped like a s one's aura! This hy Claire had not been able to sense their presence

They all wore the exact sa, controlling the Grand Devil Slayer forh it was far less powerful than the one in the carving controlled by angels, it was enough to kill a wounded and poisoned sorcerer Thethem to be killed by those outside

Claire had spoken indifferently, her eyes without fear Her gaze never left Duke Gordan It was he who had viciously attacked her without mercy If Claire did not practice Dou Qi, she would have been gasping for air weakly by now

When Duke Gordan returned her gaze, a cold feeling arose in his heart Claire's gaze seeh him Sorcerers were no ordinary people If he had tried to attack her with Dou Qi, he would have definitely failed The pope had already foreseen this, which hy he had specially given hier

”Father, what exactly are you doing? Do you knohat you're doing right now? Why are you doing this?” Katherine cried, struggling with all her ht

Claire slowly let out a breath, controlling her breathing She leaned against the tree and watched Duke Gordan coldly

”Elder sister…” Tears streamed down Lashi+a's face

”What agreement did you and the Teic formation, but she could heal her wounds with the Lotus power But this ti her body, but also her spiritual power!

Claire was extremely aware that she had been betrayed!

By this supposed ”Grandfather” of hers!

”Someone who is about to die doesn't need to know,” Duke Gordan said coldly But when his eyes met Claire's, they flashed with fear

”Father! Claire is your granddaughter, how could you…” Katherine was on the verge of collapsing

Duke Gordan coldly watched Claire For sohter? I don't have such a resolved granddaughter!”

”Father!”

”Grandfather?!” Lashi+a's eyes widened Was Grandfather really betraying her sister for an agreement with the Temple?

Claire did not say anything, concentrating all her strength on using Lotus power to heal herself The th yet, but she had to break out of it as soon as possible But rong with the wound in her back? Her strength see out What exactly was the poison on the dagger?”

”Katherine, Lashi+a, thinking carefully Hoas Claire like originally? An idiot who chased afteroff the horse? Because she is not Claire! She is only using Claire's body It was she who killed Claire's soul and took over Claire's body!” Duke Gordan's expression was icy He watched Claire almost with disdain

Katherine froze and stopped struggling, while Lashi+a was shellshocked But Roger only had a complex expression Katherine and Lashi+a watched Claire blankly, completely frozen

Claire raised a brow, but then understood The old fox already knew long ago? But he did not expose her, letting her grow and develop instead because she was valuable to the Hill clan Now that the Te to discard her without a thought?

Such cunning, such patience, such sche!

Such a person hy the Hill clan stood at such grand heights!

Claire's gaze gradually shi+fted to Katherine Katherine looked dazed, her face deathly pale Roger sighed in his heart and let her go Lashi+a watched Claire incredulously, frozen in place

”Is… is it true? Claire, you are not aze unfocused

Claire gently sighed She looked into Katherine's eyes ”It is true that I ainal Claire” Now, there was no point in continuing to talk Claire closed her eyes and continued to circulate the Lotus power throughout her body

The twelve cardinals continued to chant and the light of the ht White Emperor and Black Feather hopped up and down on Claire's should, evidently understanding that this h at

Katherine continued staring at Claire rigidly

”Katherine, let's go hoer could not bear to see Katherine watch Claire be killed Even if it wasn't their daughter, it was still her body She also did indeed rescue Katherine Roger was not completely indifferent

”You should also go back, Lashi+a Everything will be over soon” Duke Gordan patted Lashi+a's head, gently pushi+ng Lashi+a towards Katherine
