Chapter 140:

The young master was extremely excited as she saw the change in Claire's expression. There were still much more she had not told Claire because it was more interesting if Claire discovered it herself. She had a feeling that in the near future, it was going to be entertaining. Haha, just thinking about it made her excited.

"Pretty girl, let's go. I'll bring you to your master and send you all out." The young master seemed very excited, saying this as she stood up.

Claire watched the merry young master, not understanding the source of her excitement.

"The sword behind your chair should be useful for you too. Take anything you can find!" the young master instructed, her eyes slits. Right now, she was exceedingly excited, longing after the future entertainment. If she wanted to see it, she would have to give a push and help the girl become stronger.

Naturally, Claire didn't object. The sword behind the chair was already rusty. As she grabbed it, she was astonished. The old looking sword was unexpectedly heavy! Claire had to secretly use Dou Qi and only after exerting all her strength was she barely able to store the blade into the storage ring.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"That sword is a magic blade. Once you give it to your knight, you'll understand how special the sword is." The young master crossed her arms and leaned on a pillar lazily.

"Thank you." Although Claire did not understand why the girl was helping her, she was still helping her, so naturally, Claire thanked her politely.

"Oh right," the young master suddenly remembered. She fished out something from her bag. "Have this, pretty girl. You can block a fatal attack, but only once."

"Why are you helping me like this?" Claire asked, although she accepted it readily. How could she not accept such a good thing for free?

"If you die too early, then it's not as fun." The young master's reply was completely earnest, leaving Claire completely wordless.

She rolled her eyes. Just when she was about to store the item the young master had just handed her into her storage ring, the young master stopped her.

"Wear it around your neck. Remember, it will only save you once," the young master reminded her again.

"I understand." Claire wore the ordinary looking ruby necklace, a thin string with a tiny ruby dangling, simple without any other decorations.

"Let's go, pretty girl. I'll bring you to you master and also your stupid knight, then send you all out." The young master was in an unusually good mood. She was looking forward to the fun and couldn't wait to send Claire out, wanting to watch the entertainment as soon as possible.

"Where is my master?" Claire understood that her master was most likely not in danger, or else the young master's tone would not be like so.

"Just follow me." The young master grabbed Claire by the hand forcefully, pulling her out the passageway. When they exited the underground passage, the young master looked up at the sky, as it to determine their position. Then, in the next instant, Claire felt dizzy. She couldn't help but close her eyes.

Once she opened her eyes again, the scenery had changed.

Instant teleportation again.

"Pretty girl, I hope to see you at the next Divine War, haha," the young master laughed. "I wonder who you'll be then." Claire was perplexed at the young master's baffling words.

Soon, the glow around Cliff disappeared. Claire was shocked to discover Cliff's numerous wounds had healed, and he seemed energetic. Cliff's every move gave off a different aura from before, a strong aura.

Claire finally relaxed. "Master!" she called out joyously.

"Pretty girl, I hope we meet again, haha. Go, kill the ones who want to kill you." The young master's voice sounded at Claire's ear. Just when Claire was about to turn and look at the young master, her vision blackened. When she opened her eyes again, Claire discovered she had returned to where she had first entered Devil Field outside the barrier.

"Claire!"

"Miss!"

Both voices were filled with shock.

"Master, you've made a breakthrough. I'm glad you are fine. Congratulations, Master, for your breakthrough." Claire understood instantly that the young master had sent them out. Her last words were ingrained deeply in her mind. Kill those who want to kill you. Claire's gaze sharpened, turning icy.

"What happened?" Cliff frowned, completely puzzled. "I remember I was just about to break through, about to fail, when strangely, some kind of outside force helped me succeed. The next thing I know, I hear your voice and now I'm here." Cliff was utterly baffled. While he was on the verge of his breakthrough, he had sensed two people in the surrounding area. One was Claire. Who was the other one?

"Miss, who was that person? Are you alright?" Jean's eyes were filled with confusion and concern.

"She* is a devil," Claire explained to Cliff and Jean calmly. "She was the one who helped Master break through and sent us out."

*In written form, the chinese character for he and she are differently, but they sound the same when spoken.

"What?!" Jean was astonished. How could a devil help a human? Devils were a terrifying existence, powerful, ruthless, cold blooded, savage. Rumors said there were creatures from the devil world in Devil Field, but he never expected it to be true. Jean then remembered the youth had blood red eyes.

"Claire, are you saying the devil helped me break through?" Although this was a question, Cliff's tone was certain. Only he understood how dangerous the situation was and that Claire could not have helped him. The person accompanying Claire was a devil? It seemed it truly was a devil.

"Yes." Claire nodded.

"Why did he help me? And he even sent us out." Cliff was stunned. A devil who helped humans?! It almost sounded like a joke. Cliff stroked his chin, glancing around suspiciously. Not only did the devil help him break through, he also sent them out safely. It was too strange!

"She just suddenly felt like it," Claire explained, sighing.

Jean and Cliff were shocked, but seeing Claire's solemn expression, they understood that Claire was definitely telling the truth. Most likely, the devil did it because he was bored!

"I never expected there to be an actual devil in Devil Field." Cliff still hadn't recovered from his shock. Everything that had just happened was simply too strange.

"Oh right, Cliff, Jean, here." Two rings materialized from Claire's storage ring. "Drip your blood on it to form a blood contract."

"This is?" Cliff initially had his suspicions, but after seeing Claire's eyes, his suspicions were confirmed.
