Chapter 220: Suspicion?



Ling Xue, after realizing how she had started crying, quickly used her hand to wipe away all the tears from her face and then looked at Chloe, who was standing in front of her. She could see the discomfort on Chloe when she had just cried, which made her very glad, knowing she was really worried about her.

She thanked Chloe for her forgiveness and also handed her all the cores she had asked for at the same time while wiping the tears from her face. She also didn't forget to address her as a big sister, which resulted in getting a cute giggle from her in turn.

Ling Xue found her giggling very cute but decided not to mention it to her for fear of upsetting her, as things had just cooled down between them, and she didn't want to upset her over some stupid things she might do.

Chloe had seen Ling Xue bursting into tears in front of her, which she didn't think was an overreaction. To her, it must have felt like coming out of a life-threatening situation where there was no escape, as running away had never been an option from the start, considering the situation outside.

She was about to comfort her; however, before she could do anything, she saw her collecting herself without any help, which was why she stopped herself and let her calm herself. Afterward, she received the bag that contained all the cores they had collected that day.

She accepted the bag without any words, as she really needed it, considering how she had decided to go outside to search for Aiden. She was hoping to reach his place in one day, knowing how close it was to her school. That would be the best-case scenario for her.

She didn't want to take more time than necessary to reach his place, as her top priority was taking shelter before sunset, and his home would be the best for her. She knew how tall the walls covering his home were, so it would likely be much safer than other places.

Even if she didn't reach his home in one day, she knew of many other places she could use as shelter in between. However, the best scenario for her would be to reach his home in one day, and to do that, she wouldn't stop at anything and would use all the cores Ling Xue had given her without any remorse.

She knew she wouldn't be able to use all the red cores, which was why she would leave Ling Xue some after meeting her needs. She also knew it would take time for her to get her mana stats to max, as before that, she wouldn't be able to use the cultivation technique she knew of from her memory to break through to the next level. So, for now, she didn't have any need for the cores other than the blue ones to increase her mana.

Listening to her honest and heartfelt words of thanks made her a little embarrassed. However, when she heard her call her big sister, she couldn't help but giggle in return.

However, stopping her giggling, Chloe didn't just stop there. She opened the bag Ling Xue had just given her, put her hand inside, and started the process of absorbing the cores all at once.

She used enough red cores to max out her strength, stamina, and agility stats at the same time, with all the blue cores to increase her mana stat and also using all the green cores, which were barely enough for her to max out her vitality, defense, and intelligence stats, only leaving a few inside.

Light started to glow around her, which attracted the attention of everyone watching her even more than before. While they were flabbergasted by everything they had seen earlier with her and the vice president, this new magical scene was much more interesting to them than the intriguing events that had transpired before, during which their vice president seemed to be crying for some unknown reason.

On Chloe's small body, red, green, and blue lights could be seen faintly glowing but were enough for others to notice as well. Even though the light around her body was faint, the red, green, and blue particles entering her body were enough to let them know it was a magical sight.

Chloe didn't care if everyone else was watching her or not, as sooner or later, they would know. She even felt she was doing them a favor, as seeing this sight would likely make them wonder what was happening. Some might even guess that it was something related to the bag in which her hands were currently placed.

If someone courageous enough asked her what she had done earlier, she wasn't going to shy away from telling them that she was getting stronger by whatever she had done earlier. To find out more, they would have to stop being scared cats and go outside to hunt monsters.

This was the only thing she was going to do for them, knowing how strict Ling Xue had been about keeping things secret from the ones accompanying her outside at the start. She had changed later and started to show them more, but Chloe knew that showing them more would fasten the pace of their development, which was why she was doing this.

She looked at Ling Xue's face, which now had a shocked expression while looking at the faintly glowing figure of Chloe in front of her.

Ling Xue was shocked at how openly Chloe was using her cores. Even though she felt she was showing too much to others, that was not her concern, knowing she was not in charge here anymore, as her big sister Chloe was now the boss.

However, looking at the faint glow on her body, which was not fading at all, and the light particles of three different colors entering her body for much longer, she realized, after seeing the three different colors of the light, that big sister Chloe was absorbing three different cores at the same time. This came as a surprise to her, and what surprised her even more was the time it was taking Chloe to absorb or the amount of light particles around her.

She could definitely say, after looking at the amount of light particles in front of her eyes, that Chloe was clearly absorbing more than one at once.

'How?'

She had always been with Chloe all the time and had always kept her eyes on her and everyone else who had accompanied her outside. She had kept her eyes on Chloe more than others because she was fascinated by the magic she was using and wanted to find out more about it.

She didn't understand how big sister Chloe had found out that they could absorb more than one core at once. She felt stupid, as they had always been together. Now that she thought about it more, she also remembered when Chloe had told them about the skill name earlier, which she had taken as a coincidence.

But now, seeing this, she even started to wonder if Chloe had information about the magical event that had happened two days ago. It felt like too much of a coincidence for her, as everything was being discovered by Chloe, and she didn't even try to justify it like last time.

She didn't think she would be able to find out any secrets from her now. She was thinking of leaving Chloe if she got any opportunity in the future, as she didn't absolutely want to be under someone else. However, when her life was on the line, she didn't care, as living was much more important than the so-called freedom she wanted in her life. If she wasn't even alive to gain her freedom, then what was the point of doing everything?

After becoming suspicious of Chloe and thinking she must have known about these strange events before, Ling Xue decided to follow Chloe for some time. She wanted to know what other knowledge Chloe had, as everything she had shown her could have taken months to figure out on her own. For her own sake, to become a strong and informative leader of the group she planned to create in the future, she didn't mind staying with Chloe for a little while.

There was also one other reason for that. She feared she might trigger Chloe if she mentioned anything about leaving her. Being close to someone who could take her life anytime wasn't something she wanted, but the circumstances had forced her to do so.

Now, with her suspicions of Chloe, things had become much more interesting for her, as gaining this important knowledge while risking her life was much better than doing it for nothing. At least she would get something in return, and hopefully, she would find something that could make things easier for her while dealing with her father.

She looked at Chloe with much more excitement on her face than her previous dull and merely relieved expression.
