Qiao Xixi quickly ducked down the moment her cloak's effect wore off.
Sangkun seemed to sense something and snapped his head up, looking toward Qiao Xixi's position.
Sangkun put away the beast bone and slowly rose. The moment he stood, his hands transformed into sharp claws.
Qiao Xixi looked up to see Sangkun was only three steps away.
Sangkun suddenly raised his claws toward Qiao Xixi's location. Just as he was about to strike, the voice of a beastman messenger sounded from outside the door.
"Young Clan Leader, the Clan Leader requests your presence."
Sangkun walked behind the stone table. There was nothing there.
He slowly lowered his claws, the grim expression on his face easing. "Understood."
Sangkun followed the messenger out of the stone house.
Leaning against the other side of the stone table, Qiao Xixi regretfully put away the Dull Liquid in her hand. 'If he had just come a little closer, I could have sprayed the Dull Liquid and snatched the beast bone.'
