Chapter 373
At present, the [Advanced Power Heart] he mastered could only allow them to transform from third-tier to fourth rank.
As for what might be needed to reach a higher fifth rank, it remained unknown…
However, Cao Xing still encouraged, “Not bad, Sarah, I’m looking forward to the day you become a master-level assassin!”
Sarah solemnly put away the [Assassin Manual] in her hand.
Then she kneeled on one knee and said, “Lord, this is the most precious gift Sarah has received since childhood.”
“In the name of the Dark Moon Goddess, Sarah Blade Dance will henceforth defend everything of yours with her life.”
This promise, one could say, carried immense weight.
It meant that Sarah was even willing to give up everything for Cao Xing.
Including race, faith, life…
Cao Xing smiled and then helped the Dark Elf assassin up.
“Go, Sarah.”
Sarah nodded slightly, then disappeared on the spot, going to patrol the territory.
…
After Sarah left, Cao Xing mused, “Next, I should go and give those Fierce Beast Skin Pants and Cruel Gloves to Renice.”
“Both pieces of equipment suit her well.”
With these thoughts, Cao Xing went straight to Renice’s residence and started knocking on the door.
“Bang! Bang bang!”
Although he had authority over all the constructions in the territory,
it was, after all, a girl’s room, so he still needed to knock before entering.
At this time, a clear and cold voice came from inside.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me.”
Hearing the voice, a series of footsteps quickly followed from inside.
Step… step step…
Then the door opened.
In front of Cao Xing stood an unfamiliar woman.
She had smooth long hair draped over her shoulders and wore loose silk pajamas.
In the light, one could see the curves of her body, which were pronounced and shapely.
Cao Xing studied for a moment and asked in confusion, “Um… are you Renice?”
At this moment, the woman, who had a somewhat sister-next-door style, shyly lowered her head.
“Don’t I look like it, my Lord…”
To speak of, this was the first time Cao Xing had seen Renice in this appearance.
Previously, she always tied her hair up to facilitate battle, making her look valiant and spirited.
But now, this appearance seemed much gentler.
Cao Xing smiled, “It’s not that, I just didn’t recognize it at first.”
Renice gently asked, “Then… does my Lord like me in this form?”
Her voice was soft, but Cao Xing still heard it.
After a moment, Cao Xing replied.
“Yes.”
Hearing these words, Renice lifted her head, revealing a beautiful smile.
The moonlight above sprinkled down, making her skin appear as white as snow.
In terms of appearance, Renice might fall slightly short compared to Liu Muxue.
But at this moment, she was like a fairy under the moonlight, exuding her unique beauty.
Before Cao Xing could react, he suddenly felt his wrist being grasped.
Then, without a word, Renice pulled him into the room.
As a woman who dealt with bows and arrows for years, Renice had strong wrist strength, and Cao Xing couldn’t break free.
“Boom!”
The door closed directly.
And Renice pinned Cao Xing against the door, gazing at him intently.
The scene before him was somewhat peculiar, making Cao Xing couldn’t help but think.
Uh… am I being cornered by my own subordinate?
However, after that initial bold move, Renice seemed too shy to continue.
She bashfully lowered her head and softly said.
“Lord… my Lord…”
The earlier entanglement with Sarah had already made Cao Xing feel a flame burning his body.
Thus, in Renice’s surprised gaze, Cao Xing directly pulled her into his arms.
Even through the pajamas, Cao Xing could feel the slim curves of this woman’s body.
Especially her waist, there was no excess flesh; it felt as if it could be easily held with one hand.
Swoosh…
In front of Cao Xing appeared a slender and fit body.
Years of training gave her a perfect body curve, and even her abdomen had clearly visible abs.
Looking down, there were round and firm hips.
Renice’s figure was not as soft as Liu Muxue or Sarah.
On the contrary, it seemed a bit firm.
This woman, with arms crossed, turned her head slightly away and said, “Lord… my Lord…”
“My body might not be as good as Sister Sarah’s… would you… would you be put off by me?”
However, after hearing this, Cao Xing stepped forward and took her hands.
Renice seemed even shyer.
However, in her bashful yet expectant gaze, Cao Xing lowered his head.
At that moment, all the anxiety and shyness in her heart disappeared entirely.
Leaving only the continuous murmurs from her mouth.
“Mm… mm…”
Then, with slightly rough palms, she stroked over Cao Xing’s chest, gently saying, “Sorry, Lord, Renice’s palms are a bit rough…”
“I’ve always felt a bit self-conscious because of this…”
Due to years of drawing the bowstring, Renice’s hands carried many calluses.
But upon hearing this, Cao Xing laughed, “It’s okay, Renice, you are a very perfect woman.”
Hearing this, Renice’s face gradually showed a moved expression.
“You are the first to praise me like this. On the battlefield, my subordinates complained I was too fierce…”
“Because of my strictness, no one ever saw me as a woman…”
Before she could finish, Cao Xing already lifted her hands, interlocking their fingers.
An hour later…
She no longer had strength left.
She lay softly on the floor, gazing at Cao Xing with hazy eyes.
Time passed quietly…
Both lay together in the warm covers…
