Chapter 312
Hearing this, Hilda directly moved her eight legs to get closer to Cao Xing. “Really, my Lord?”
Cao Xing nodded. “Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”
At this moment, the proud Queen Blood Spider had a look of emotion appear in her eyes for the first time.
A system prompt appeared.
[Due to your promise, Territory Member: Hilda Bloodkiss’s loyalty to you has increased. Current Loyalty: 80.]
Cao Xing was surprised, not expecting that even this could increase loyalty.
However, at least he managed to raise this troublesome Queen Blood Spider’s loyalty to 80.
At that moment, Hilda seemed to realize her reaction was too intense.
She tilted her head and huffed lightly. “Hmph! Even without your Heart of Power, I would still surpass that woman.”
Cao Xing was completely speechless.
What a troublesome woman.
Of course, this was just a small episode.
Under Isabell’s guidance of Holy Light, everyone continued their journey.
Thirty minutes later.
They returned near the territory.
…
Outside, snow was everywhere.
Ahead, within the territory surrounded by walls three to four meters high, it was warm like spring.
The drifting snowflakes fell on the ground or buildings of the territory, quickly melting from the heat emitted by the Melting Furnace.
So, except for a clean circle around the territory, the snow outside had almost piled up to a meter high!
Meanwhile, there were many figures standing on the city wall.
Most subjects had come to the wall, eagerly waiting.
The Polar Person, Dazhuang, couldn’t help but say worriedly after waiting a moment, “Why hasn’t the Lord come back today?”
Next to him, Sanzhuang echoed, “Yeah, the Lord has never come back so late before…”
Worry appeared in the eyes of the others.
Beside them, Xia Yanni was also holding Tong Chuchu’s hand.
Seeing the worry in her daughter’s eyes, she softly comforted, “Cao Xing is so amazing, nothing will happen to him, don’t worry, Chuchu.”
“And I’ve also sent him a message, they should still be on their way back.”
Tong Chuchu nodded forcefully, “Mm-hmm!”
Including the Tree Spirit Clan sisters, Yilena, and others, they were all silently waiting.
In this territory, Cao Xing had already become the pillar of support for many.
Just then, Eliza, who was standing on the watchtower, exclaimed, “By the Moon God, I see a mammoth!”
“And there seems to be a glowing woman too!”
“It’s the Lord who has returned!”
Hearing this, everyone looked intently.
Indeed, it was just as Eliza had said.
A mammoth, carrying a group of figures, charged through the snowstorm in the snowy field.
At the front of the group was a woman standing on a Light Shuttle, her body glowing.
Seeing this scene, Dazhuang immediately raised his hands excitedly.
“Haha! The Lord has finally returned!”
“That’s great!”
Everyone was overjoyed and excited.
Outside the territory, the mammoth’s run was impressive.
Even almost one meter of deep snow was no obstacle for Da Bai’s size.
The gate had already been opened in advance.
After giving access to the half-dead Hunter Killer he carried, Cao Xing led everyone directly into the territory.
At this moment, everyone saw Isabell, bathed in Holy Light, and couldn’t help but marvel at her beauty.
However, they quickly focused their attention on Cao Xing!
Kidding aside, there were many beauties in this territory, and they were quite used to seeing them.
In comparison, the return of the Lord was more thrilling.
The Polar Person, Dazhuang, holding a hammer, excitedly said, “Lord, you’re back!”
The Tree Spirit Clan next to him also joyfully said, “Lord, welcome back.”
Eliza directly approached Cao Xing, exclaiming, “Lord! You worried me to death!”
Seeing this, Cao Xing smiled and said, “What’s going on? You make it seem like I wasn’t coming back.”
Dazhuang scratched his head foolishly and said, “The Lord has never come back this late, and with such heavy snow outside, we were all very worried about you.”
Subject Cao Yi also chuckled, “Yes, Little Elysa was all set to assemble her Archer Team and go out searching for the Lord, but Mr. Mel stopped her.”
Hearing this, Eliza immediately widened her eyes and waved her hands quickly, “I didn’t! I didn’t!”
“I’ve been staying in the territory very honestly!”
Cao Xing looked over at her.
Eliza immediately lowered her head, saying pitifully, “I know I was wrong… Lord…”
Seeing her pitiful demeanor, Cao Xing chuckled.
“Alright, I don’t blame you. Just don’t do it again, understand? Just stay honestly in the territory.”
Then, Cao Xing remembered something.
“Also, didn’t I leave you and Kandar with a small communication device each? Why not use it to contact me?”
Hearing this, Eliza and the Centaur exchanged a glance, then suddenly realized something.
“Oh no! I actually forgot about it!”
Next to her, the Centaur also scratched his head, saying, “Lord, we Centaurs have never used such things, so we subconsciously ignored it.”
Cao Xing was completely speechless.
At this moment, everyone laughed.
The Tree Spirit Clan sisters and Xia Yanni’s mother and daughter all had warm smiles on their faces.
The four newly joined Wild Boar Warriors were looking at this scene with some curiosity.
“Oh! Our mighty Lord seems to be deeply loved by the subjects!”
“Yes, Rab! I have a feeling, this is a very nice territory. On the faces of these subjects, I can see happy smiles!”
