Chapter 108:
"Claire, how do you feel now?" Leng Lingyun asked quietly after sitting down.
"There's already no major issues, I just have a bit of a headache," Claire replied.
"It's because you had too much blood loss earlier. If you allow it to heal, there will be no problem. But traveling further into the mountains is not suitable for your body. Your body cannot heal in this kind of environment." Naturally, Leng Lingyun knew how strong his treatment was.
"Yeah, thank you for saving me again." Claire had a slight smile on her face.
Before Leng Lingyun spoke, Camille stepped in, narrowing his eyes in an unsatisfied manner. "You seem to be thanking him, but shouldn't you thank me first?"
"Haha, yes, thank you, esteemed secondary commander. In this group only you such quick reflexes,only you have such quick hands." Claire smiled slightly while complementing Camille. Camille was in a state of bliss, happily smiling through closed eyes.
Meanwhile, there was only one person whose face had paled. And that was Li Yuewen. Listening to others, her face had turned to a more uncomfortable color.
"Oh right, Elder Li Yuewen, you still haven't paid the price for hurting me yet," Claire suddenly said in a heavy tone.
Li Yuewen froze, her expression changing a little. She looked back, trembling, at the serious-faced Claire. Her heart wouldn't calm down.
However, Li Mingyu had a calm demeanor. He knew that Claire wouldn't really blame Li Yuewen.
Li Yuewen head drooped as she said softly said in a low voice, "Yes, it's all my fault. My mistake harmed you......"
"Yeah, you almost stabbed me to death. If it weren't for Camille and Leng Lingyun, I would have died." Claire's voice was very cold.
Li Yuewen bit her lip very hard, biting so hard, it nearly bled.
"So you have to pay the price." Claire's tone suddenly took a turn. She said steadfastly, "I lost too much blood, my head is dizzy, you have to take care of me. Right now, I am still weak, so I cannot continue practicing. Let's go back now and after being fully rested, then I can go to your family's training ground to train. Also, don't pull any pranks in the middle of the night, let me have a nice sleep. My eye-bags are getting heavier."
And so, Claire's words came in a long and windy stream. Li Yuewen looked up, gaping at Claire. This was her payment?!
"What? You think I'm too harsh?" Claire frowned at Li Yuewen as she asked Li Yuewen.
"No, not at all." Li Yuewen shook her head wildly like a string drum. "Okay, okay, then tomorrow, let's return to our country. We'll slow down our pace, and I'll take care of you throughout the trip and stop pulling pranks on you in the middle of the night."
"Heehee, you said so, so don't come in the night. I haven't slept properly recently at all." Claire yawned as she confirmed, satisfied.
"You think I'll go back on my word?" Li Yuewen raised her brow let out a humph while asking.
"That's right, that's right. Haha, Miss Claire, how have you been?" Jackson said to Claire while smiling. Claire nodded slightly.
"Fine. We're tired now," Claire said faintly. Right after Claire finished speaking, she went directly past the burly man with Summer through the door.
Jackson scratched his head, smiling awkwardly. Suddenly, he spotted Jean. He immediately approached him, laughing heartily. "Brother Jean, you're here too, haha, what a coincident. We actually bumped into each other here."
"Yes," Jean said stiffly, not wasting any breath.
"Haha, where are you going?" Jackson asked. He followed Jean from the side, curiousy watching the large group of people behind him. They passed to two, following Claire in the door.
"To Lagark." Jean didn't want to reveal too much, so he only spoke tersely.
"Ah? Really? Wonderful, we're also planning on going to Lagark, why don't we go together? We have plenty of time so we can wait for you and go together. It's best to look after each other." Jackson smiled widely.
"Why are you going to Lagark?" Jean said casually. Whether or not they would go together would depend on Claire.
"To send a few things to the Feng clan's chamber of commerce." Jackson said with his mouth drawn back. "The Feng clan's chamber of commerce. You know, the wealthy family that everybody is jealous of."
The Feng clan? Feng Yixuan's clan?
"Oh. So it's like that." Jean replied softly.
"Then when will you all depart? Let's go together." Jackson asked while following Jean in the door.
"About that, I'll have to ask my commander and secondary commander," Jean replied carefully.
Jackson immediately became curious and he asked, "Commander? Secondary commander? You guys became a mercenary group? What kind?"
"Yuan Bao mercenary corps." Jean, having a favorable impression of Jackson, replied patiently.
"Hehe, congrats, you guys are now a mercenary group." Jackson congratulated them.
"Thank you." Jean replied softly.
"Brother Jean, this meeting is such a good opportunity, let's got and drink something." Jackson elbowed Jean with a very relaxed voice.
"No need," Jean declined politely.
"Haha, you are too polite. You guys just came, eat and rest first." Jackson smiled.
"Yes." Jean nodded.
The lobby of the hotel had tens of tables with a few people sitting small groups. When Yaks and Jean came in together, the table in the corner had people yelling and laughing out loud. They were the mercenaries under Jackson and also the ones who had thrown Jackson out.
"Miss, Secondary Commander, they invited us to go on the journey with them tomorrow, how will we reply?" Jean walked over while questioning Claire and Camille.
