Also, the statue repaired at the center of the Royal Palace.
During the last palace battle, this statue of the King was cleaved by the Dragon Speaker’s sword.
Now it has been restored to its original state.
[You have arrived at Eternal Frost Main City…]
…
Cao Xing said cheerfully: “This is really quite convenient, Eternal Frost Main City has truly become like the backyard of my territory.”
Even though the large teleportation array can only transport over a hundred people at a time, with a cooling time of 6 hours.
But compared to taking two or three days to travel in the past, it is much more convenient.
Kro, looking at the familiar surroundings, quickly said: “Lord Cao Xing, please follow me; I will take you to meet His Majesty the King.”
Just as Cao Xing was about to respond, an aged voice suddenly echoed around the group.
“No need, I am already here.”
As soon as the words fell, a figure with white hair and beard, carrying an ancient aura, swiftly appeared.
In an instant, Witch Francisca, Renice, and others became alert!
This was their first time seeing the Old King, and the profound and vast aura emanating from him made them feel a soul-deep oppression!
This is a formidable enemy!
The Old King’s gaze scanned over Cao Xing along with the twelve people, plus one dragon, seemingly assessing their capabilities.
After a moment, his eyes showed a look of appreciation.
“Lord Cao Xing, the master-level experts on your side are truly extraordinary!”
“I fear even regular heroic-level powerhouses are no match for you.”
Cao Xing replied with a smile: “Your Majesty overestimates us; compared to Ice Crystal Kingdom, my troops are nothing.”
“You, being a legendary-level expert and wielding a demigod artifact, could easily overcome all of us.”
The Old King chuckled softly: “Relax, I don’t intend to do anything to you.”
“Don’t forget, we are allies now.”
Clearly, the Old King was reassuring Cao Xing to ease his worry.
Cao Xing also laughed, saying, “The King speaks truth; we are allies now.”
Including Francisca, Renice, and others, they gradually relaxed their guard.
The Old King continued: “Kro already briefed me on the specific actions; you are not only attacking the Bright Church Headquarters but also dealing with ten strongholds, correct?”
“Yes.” Cao Xing replied: “Currently, my people are already on their way to the strongholds.”
“They are expected to arrive the day after tomorrow.”
Thoughtfulness appeared in the Old King’s eyes, “Looks like I also need to act quickly.”
“For these next two days, you all can stay at the palace.”
“Alright.” Cao Xing agreed without objection.
The Old King, known for his decisiveness, directly addressed Cao Xing and his group.
“Kro, arrange accommodations for Lord Cao Xing and his people; I have matters to attend to.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Kro responded respectfully.
In the next moment, the Old King disappeared instantly.
Truly coming and going without a trace, they couldn’t even discern how the Old King moved.
“Lord Cao Xing, please follow me.”
Quickly, Kro led Cao Xing and the others into a spacious mansion.
Cao Xing glanced around; the decor was nice, and the temperature was comfortable.
There were plenty of rooms, enough for everyone to rest in.
Kro continued: “Lord Cao Xing, you may rest here for the time being.”
“For any commands, just call the guardian outside.”
“I have preparations to make too.”
“Alright, go ahead, General Kro.”
Cao Xing responded casually,
And soon, the general left.
Cao Xing looked at his subjects and said: “Alright, find a room to rest yourselves.”
“I’ll call for you on the day of action.”
“Understood.”
