Rosetta felt relieved when she saw the changes in Catina’s appearance. “They say you cultivate by
sucking men’s essence. They also say you’re incredibly ruthless and would kill anyone upon sight. Oh,
and you also eat children…”
Catina’s smile faded the moment she heard Rosetta mention the eating of children, and her expression
grew vicious all of a sudden.
Rosetta tensed up and broke out in a cold sweat when she saw that.
“Those f*cking b*stards! As if spreading rumors about me sleeping around wasn’t bad enough, they
even went as far as accusing me of eating children? I love children the most, so there’s no way I’d eat
them! Those old b*stards are just jealous that I’m as powerful as they are! That’s why they go around
spreading rumors about me! If I find out who accused me of eating children, I’ll skin that person alive!”
Catina’s eyes were wide with fury, and she looked as though she was about to kill someone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt took quite a while before Catina’s anger subsided. She then flashed Rosetta another faint smile and
asked, “Do I look as scary as the rumors say?”
Rosetta shook her head. “N-No, you don’t…”
“Hahaha! You’re way too pure and naive! Did you think I’m a good person simply because I smiled at
you? Honestly, I don’t understand why your father would leave an innocent and pure girl like you in a
place like this! There are no rules here in this Celestial Battlefield. Given your current strength, you’re
practically a sitting duck if you run into bad guys here! What are you doing in that cave all by yourself?
Why aren’t you with your father?” Catina asked.
“I… I’m waiting for my father and the others. They went off searching for magical items. I had to wait
here because I’m too weak to go with them. They should be back soon,” Rosetta replied while
instinctively stealing glances at the cave.
Catina saw right through Rosetta’s lies and asked with a chuckle, “What’s inside that cave? Is it the
magical items you’ve found?”
Rosetta shook her head profusely. “T-There’s nothing inside!”
Naturally, Catina didn’t believe a word she said. As Catina started making her way toward the cave,
Rosetta quickly stepped in front of her to block her path.
Upon seeing her response, Catina was all the more certain that there was something inside the cave.
“Do you really think you can stop me?”
With a gentle wave of Catina’s hand, an invisible force effortlessly shoved Rosetta aside. She had just
entered the cave when she saw Jared lying on the ground.
“I didn’t think a young girl like you would be keeping a handsome man in here. That explains why you
were panicking so much. Is he your boyfriend?” Catina said while eyeing Jared from head to toe.
“No, he’s not. We’re just friends. Mr. Chance here got injured, so I brought him in here,” Rosetta
explained.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Injured, huh?” Catina knelt down and began examining Jared’s injuries. Right as her hand was about
to touch Jared’s chest, Rosetta reached out and smacked it aside.
“Don’t you lay a finger on Mr. Chance! As long as I’m alive, I won’t let you touch him!” Rosetta roared
angrily at the top of her voice.
As Jared had saved her life before, she refused to let anyone hurt him.
“Why are you freaking out, Demonic Cultivator? I’m just examining his injuries.”
Without even looking back, Catina waved at Rosetta and sent her flying with a burst of aura Rosetta
was about to get up when she realized she was immobilized by an invisible force.
Catina gently placed her palm on Jared’s chest.
The fair skin of her hand formed a huge contrast with Jared’s tanned chest.
Right as Catina was about to inject her aura into Jared’s body, a white light flashed past his chest. The
next thing Catina knew, a powerful force had knocked her back a few steps.
After taking a moment to regain her composure, Catina looked up at Jared with shock written all over
her face.
