Chapter 90-

(TL: Castellen -> city lord)

“Is it fine to train with us and abandon so many people?” Li Mingyu looked towards the city gates.

“If I had stayed, then it would have been not fine!” Claire coldly humphed, annoyed. She had actually been ensnared by that old fox! And she had been ensnared before so many people and she couldn’t resist at all. She didn’t understand why the pope wanted to pull her towards the Temple of Light’s side, but one thing was for sure: it definitely could not be that the pope was just impulsive for a moment. Was it related to Leng Lingyun investigating the anomaly from that day? No matter what, leaving the feud behind was good. Being stuck between royal authority and divine right would definitely be uncomfortable.

The line up of this mercenary group was rarely seen. Claire pretended to be an archer, Summer was a thief, Qiao Chuxin was an actual archer, Jean was a warrior, Walter was a Dark magician, Ben was going to be both a warrior and magician, and Camille was a narcissistic, mad killer. In any case, it was a line up with variety, having all types of classes. On the surface, Li Mingyu and Li Yuewen were their mercenary group’s employer.

“Little leopard, come.” Claire leisurely reached out and called the wind leopard who was following them from behind. She mounted on him.

“Ah, you traitor. Didn’t you say you were going to train?” Summer immediately protested. Everybody was walking while Claire, that guy, actually rode a mount.

“Training not only the body, but also willpower. If you get upset by such a small thing, our secondary commander, Camille, is going to get mad.” Claire said faintly.

Immediately, Summer felt a cold wind blow strangely from behind her. Turning around, she saw Camille’s warm and gentle smile. Summer shuddered and kept on feeling like this person was very danger, truly dangerous. Summer sensibly stopped talked and rushed over to Claire’s side.

And so, the small mercenary group peacefully left the capital, heading to the next town. The Azure ripple was pointing towards the Belruk border.  

Claire looked up just as wind blew, lightly blowing her bangs. Everything became clear at once.

Her new life had started just now.

The party looked like they were just an ordinary mercenary group. The people that attracted the most attention instead were the Li siblings. Their outstanding appearance and unordinary air attracted many looks. Every time they went to a new place, people couldn’t help but look.

But today was an exception. Everyone saw many people constantly fleeing frantically from the city gate ahead and were puzzled. The city before them was Amparkland’s third ranked port city, Placid Water, was always prosperous and peaceful, a major trading market. Usually, there was an endless stream of businessmen entering or leaving, but today, they acted like they were being chased by ghosts, like they were wishing they could grow wings and fly away.  

“Ah, wait…” Summer attempted to ask someone, but they turned a deaf ear, running off without a trace will holding a bag of something.

Li Mingyu and Li Yuewen also wanted to ask the people running by, but they all ignore them, only running like their life depended on it. Carriages were also continuously rushing out, creating cracks on the ground. The entire city was very chaotic!

“Ben!” Claire called. Ben understood, immediately grabbing a running passerby, directly lifting them up.

“What are you doing? Let me go!” The person Ben was raising fearfully kicked his legs that were suspended in mid air, shouting angrily.
