The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 160: True Heart

She looked down at herself, discovering that not only had her beast skin skirt been changed, but the wound on her neck had also been treated.

In her heart, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of goodwill towards this male.

With a grateful expression, she couldn’t help but ask, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my life. May I ask if you have seen my companion? Where is he?"

Nolan Sterling raised an eyebrow, looking her up and down. "I don’t know where your companion is. I found you unconscious in the dense forest outside Beast King City and brought you back as a matter of course."

Chloe Callahan heard his answer and frowned slightly, feeling a bit uneasy.

Suppressing the anxiety in her heart, she looked up at Nolan and pleaded, "Your Highness, could you help me find my companion? I have a feeling he is not well, perhaps even..."

Nolan Sterling narrowed his fox-like eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips. "Oh? Your companion? Truly devoted. However, the forest outside Beast King City is vast, and finding your companion won’t be easy."

Her heart sank but unwilling to give up, she continued to plead, "I beg Your Highness for help, I am willing to pay any price!"

Nolan chuckled softly, his long fingers gently stroking his chin, seemingly intrigued by her "any price."

He walked closer, leaned down to her ear, and spoke in a low, tempting voice, "Any price? Including... yourself?"

This female might be ordinary in looks, but her skin is excellent, snow-white, just like his fox fur, evoking a sense of pity and a desire to protect.

Somewhat interesting indeed.

Chloe Callahan looked at Nolan Sterling’s enchantingly handsome face and the warm breath brushing past her ear, her eyelashes gently lowering.

She was secretly calculating in her heart.

Caleb Manning’s life or death is unknown, and she is alone in Beast King City. She must find new support quickly.

Nolan, as the grand prince of Beast King City, is obviously a good choice.

Her mind turned slightly, revealing a look of pitiable vulnerability, "Your Highness must be joking. I’m just a helpless female, I don’t dare to wish for any price... Just, if Your Highness is willing to help me find my companion, I am willing to repay you with everything I can."

This man has a noble temperament, and his appearance is not inferior to Caleb Manning. The nine fox tails lazily swaying are much like a mythical fox fairy from a TV drama.

Suddenly, the androgynous face of Kian Sterling flashed through her mind.

She remembered that the Beastman was also a Nine-Tailed White Fox, bearing some resemblance to this Nolan Sterling before her, wondering if there was any connection between the two?

But she didn’t say it out loud, just kept the thought buried in her heart.

A trace of playfulness flashed in Nolan’s eyes, his slender fingers gently lifted Chloe Callahan’s chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.

Within his eyes seemed to lie an endless storm, yet the smile at the corner of his mouth was tender enough to startle.

"How do you intend to repay me?"

He repeated softly, his voice like it’s seeping out from deep within his throat, carrying a hint of danger.

Chloe Callahan’s heart raced, but she knew she already had no way back.

She bit her lip and gathered her courage, "Though I am not talented, I do know some knowledge, which might bring Your Highness some benefit."

Nolan chuckled softly, withdrawing his hand and turning his back to her, the nine fox tails gently swaying behind him, as if pondering something.

After a moment, he spoke lightly, "Alright, I’ll have someone look for your companion. But first, you have to prove your value."

Chloe Callahan was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask, "What does Your Highness want me to do?"

Nolan turned his head slightly, an enigmatic expression on his face, "It’s simple, accompany me to the banquet in Beast King City tomorrow night."

Chloe Callahan was startled; the Beast King City’s banquet would certainly be a gathering of countless beasts. If Caleb Manning were still alive, perhaps this might be a chance to find him.

Hmm, maybe she could even meet more powerful Beastmen.

Thinking of this, she nodded without hesitation, "I am willing."

Nolan smiled with satisfaction, "Settle here well; there will be female slaves to attend to all your needs, no need to worry."

As soon as he finished speaking, two female slaves walked in from outside, kneeling respectfully before Chloe Callahan, their heads lowered as they awaited instructions.

Nolan gave them a glance and said lightly, "Take good care of her, if anything happens, you’ll be held responsible."

The two female slaves quickly responded, cautiously rising and stepping forward to support Chloe Callahan.

Inwardly, Chloe Callahan was delighted. It seemed Nolan had a favorable impression of her, and for now, she wouldn’t have to worry about survival.

She looked up at Nolan, her expression grateful, her voice so soft and tender, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Nolan nodded slightly and turned to leave, his nine fox tails shimmering silver under the moonlight, looking particularly enchanting.

Chloe Callahan watched him leave, her mind beginning to scheme.

The banquet tomorrow night might be her opportunity to turn things around.

She had to seize this chance to find Caleb Manning... or a new support.

Meanwhile, Luna Sutton was leisurely enjoying a petal bath by the hot spring, the screen in front of her having switched to the scene in Beast King City.

She watched the confrontation between Chloe Callahan and Nolan Sterling, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned.

"As expected of the daughter of fate, now that Caleb’s down, Nolan shows up in no time. The protagonist’s aura isn’t just for show!"

She murmured softly, her voice full of irony and playfulness.

Luckily, Chloe Callahan has already gone to the Beast King City and didn’t stay. Otherwise, it would have been truly disturbing.

She scooped up a handful of hot spring water, gently sprinkling it on her shoulder, droplets sliding down her smooth skin, shimmering pristinely in the moonlight.

Luna Sutton leaned lazily against the edge of the pool, continuing to watch this "show."

"But, Nolan really knows how to play, Nine-Tailed Foxes are indeed old foxes, even simple ’little white rabbits’ like Chloe Callahan aren’t spared."

She chuckled lightly, a hint of ridicule in her eyes.

Suddenly, she recalled Kian Sterling, that guy who seemed gentle but was actually quite scheming, probably on par with Nolan.

She knew that Kian Sterling and Nolan Sterling were brothers.

Kian Sterling was framed years ago and forced to flee Beast King City. Could Nolan have had a hand in this?

At this moment, a voice echoed in her mind: "Ding! Host, a new task has arrived. Do you want to accept it?"

Luna Sutton raised her eyebrows and lazily asked, "What task? Let’s hear it first."

The system chuckled: "Within a month, establish a substantial relationship with Kian Sterling and gain his trust, make him voluntarily reveal the mystery of his background. Task reward - [Fox Clan Secret Technique, Enchanting Eyes]. This technique allows you to temporarily control the opponent’s mind; the effect depends on the difference in strength, with the potential to influence beastmen up to two ranks above you."

"Tsk tsk, this reward is quite tempting, but Kian is not an easy target. His face is gentle enough to deceive without guilt, yet his thoughts are deeper than anyone’s. To settle him within a month, you must think highly of me."

The system chuckled: "I believe you can do it, host. If not for the task difficulty, time wouldn’t be a month but seven days. Moreover, your current appearance and charisma have long surpassed the unpopular past. Kian already has a 60-point affection rating toward you, that’s a pretty good starting point."

She lazily scooped up more hot spring water: "That’s easy to say, a 60-point affection rating is merely not hating me, far from trust and voluntarily revealing his background. But..."

She paused, a glint flashed in her eyes, "The Fox Clan Secret Technique, Enchanting Eyes, tsk tsk, this reward is truly enticing. Alright, I’ll take this task."

Although dealing with old foxes is difficult, she insists on trying.

Feeling that she’d soaked too long, she prepared to get up and leave the water.

Suddenly she heard faint footsteps behind her.

Luna Sutton perked up her ears, a smile tugging at her lips, deliberately pretending not to notice, and sat back down in the water to continue soaking.

"Luna, it’s late, aren’t you going to rest? Are you waiting for me?"

Kian Sterling’s voice was as gentle as water, tinged with a subtle teasing.

She turned her head, seeing Kian Sterling emerging from the night, nine snow-white fox tails swaying gently, moonlight casting a silver sheen on him, giving him an ethereal yet enchanting aura.

She feigned surprise and blinked: "Oh my, Kian, why are you here? I thought you’d gone with Corbin Crowley to chase Caleb Manning."

Kian Sterling chuckled, slowly walked to the edge of the hot spring, crouched down, and his long fingers gently stirred the water, droplets sliding off his fingertips, creating ripples.

"Caleb Manning has already regressed to a cub, no threat there. But you, soaking alone for so long, be careful not to catch a cold~"

Luna Sutton glanced at him, her eyes carrying a charming smile: "Kian, are you worried about me?"

Kian Sterling’s eyes smiled deeper, his fingertips gently gliding across the water, his voice soft enough to be sickeningly sweet: "What do you think?"

She intentionally sank lower under the water, only her beautiful peach blossom eyes showing: "Kian, with words like that, I can’t dare to overthink. After all, you are a Nine-Tailed White Fox, your mind deep enough to hold the entire beast world."

Kian Sterling chuckled, his fox tail gently brushed the water surface, creating ripples while also soaking his fur, making the snow-white fur even silkier.

"Luna, your words really break my heart. I am genuine to you."

"Genuine?"

She blinked, feigning innocence, "Then tell me, how genuine are you towards me?"

Kian Sterling’s eyes flickered slightly, lips curling with a meaningful smile: "Genuine enough... to do anything for you."

"Oh?"

Luna Sutton was a bit surprised but didn’t believe him at all.

Just felt this old fox was truly tough to deal with.

Thinking about how to make Kian voluntarily reveal his background.

She saw him slowly raise his hand, his fingertips stroking his face, his beautiful fox eyes holding a hint of depth: "Luna, since you want to know my thoughts so much, why don’t we play a little game?"

She instantly became wary, maintaining composure: "Oh? What kind of game?"

Kian Sterling’s fox eyes squinted slightly, his smile deepening: "Very simple, I’ll ask, you answer. If you’re correct, there’s a reward, if you’re wrong... there’s punishment."

Her heart skipped a beat, what’s this old fox up to?

Yet her face remained calm as she chuckled: "Alright, what do you want to ask?"

Kian Sterling slowly drew closer, his breath spraying beside her ear, his voice husky: "How much sincere feeling do you truly have for me?"
