Due to their previous day’s encounter and the recognition by several guards, Liao Ning and Zhou Ling were able to proceed to the sixth floor without any questioning or interruptions.

Sami, on the other hand, had resorted to her last remaining invisibility cloak. Her previous cloak had been confiscated by Liao Xi, leaving her with no alternative for self-preservation. She was determined not to use it unless absolutely necessary.

Upon entering the hall, Sami discreetly observed the two figures in the corner. To her surprise, they were diligently engaged in cleaning tasks, showing no signs of suspicious activity. She briefly pondered if they had indeed mistaken her for someone else.

However, as time passed and more than two hours elapsed, Liao Ning finally made her move. A silent exchange of glances occurred between Liao Ning and Zhou Ling. In response, Zhou Ling swiftly gathered cleaning tools and began tidying up near the remaining two guards. The guards paid no heed, considering it routine work given the daily task of cleaning seawater, which inevitably generated trash.

Sami struggled to control her breathing, acutely aware of Liao Ning’s formidable abilities. She suspected that the man with her was not to be underestimated and remained on high alert.

Liao Ning surreptitiously approached the heart-shaped crystal, periodically checking if anyone was observing her. Strangely, she sensed a malevolent gaze fixated on her, but despite her vigilance, she couldn’t discern Sami beneath the invisibility cloak.

In the end, Liao Ning steeled herself and decided to abscond with the heart-shaped crystal. She pricked her finger with a fishbone needle, causing the crystal to shrink and slowly ascend from the center of the pool towards her. Liao Ning promptly placed a vial containing her blood into the pool, restoring its purification process, all while the guards at the entrance remained oblivious to the covert operation.

Just as Liao Ning breathed a sigh of relief upon securing the crystal, she suddenly sensed someone approaching from her left.

Years of experience as a bounty hunter had honed her instincts, allowing her to swiftly retreat. As expected, a woman’s hand emerged where she had stood only moments ago.

Invisibility cloak! Liao Ning immediately recognized that the hand belonged to Sami.

Zhou Ling, noticing her reaction, hurried over. “Are you alright?”

Liao Ning shook her head and whispered, “Quick, leave!”

They exchanged a knowing look and promptly exited the sixth floor. Liao

Nings pace quickened, and Zhou Ling refrained from asking questions, simply

following her lead.

As they reached the castle gate, a guard stopped them. “Where are you headed?”

Although their presence in the castle had been brief, it was evident that few individuals from the empire possessed the skill to prepare ancient delicacies. The guards treated them with respect.

Liao Ning scanned the area, failing to spot Mike. She then produced a bag of small biscuits. “Mike mentioned that his daughter improved after eating my biscuits. I’ve brought some for him today.”

She handed a few biscuits to the guard. “I didn’t make many this time, so please enjoy them. I’ll prepare more next time to diversify your meals.”

The guards expressed their gratitude, allowing the two to pass without further inquiry. As they approached the port, intending to board the fire seahorse while the guards were distracted, Zhou Ling suddenly kicked behind him.

A thud sounded as someone fell to the ground. The invisibility cloak unraveled, revealing Sami, glaring fiercely at them.

“Ignore her. Let’s go!” Zhou Ling urged, pulling Liao Ning away. It was not the right moment for confrontation. They needed to return to the elders urgently to avert a looming threat.

However, Sami, appearing frail, retrieved a bottle of potion and splashed it on Liao Ning with all her might. In seconds, Liao Ning’s true form was exposed.

“Your necklace!” Zhou Ling disregarded formalities, quickly unfastening Liao Ning’s collar and confirming that the necklace had indeed been soaked.

Sami burst into laughter. “Hahaha, it’s really you, Liao Ning! This liquid is a hallucinogen. The scale powder won’t work now. You can’t escape! Either take me with you immediately, or I’ll call for help.. The choice is yours!”
