Chapter 1906: Chapter 638: Heroic Witch, Arrival of the Management Talent

Speaking of that, she added, "Of course, Lord, if you have time, it’d be great if you could come play that kind of game with me and my sister again!"

"Nif and my sister still want to hug Lord and sleep together."

The little girl’s voice was very crisp, and also very loud.

As a pure Tree Spirit Clan girl, she still didn’t know what it really meant to do that kind of thing.

But she did know that doing that kind of thing could make Lord happy, and made her feel very good too.

So she kept thinking about it, wanting to do it once more with Cao Xing.

Beside her, Juliette’s face flushed scarlet, and she shyly tugged on Nif’s sleeve.

Cao Xing’s expression didn’t change much, but in his mind the perfect, exquisitely beautiful figures of this pair of sisters still surfaced.

A woman like that—just one would be enough to drive countless men mad.

Cao Xing chuckled lightly and responded, "All right, I’ll come find you when I have time."

Hearing his promise, smiles of joy appeared on both their faces at the same time.

Then Cao Xing left the rear garden area.

And went straight to the Territory’s East City Gate.

"Creak—"

When the city gate opened, Cao Xing saw at a glance that over a hundred figures were standing out in the snow.

Their clothes were ragged, and they carried worn-out bundles on their backs.

Every face was marked by exhaustion and fear; it looked like they had suffered quite a bit along the way. ℴℴ𝘮

Just then, a staff member called out loudly, "Lord has arrived."

Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but lift their heads, and more than a hundred pairs of eyes turned toward Cao Xing at once!

All kinds of expressions surfaced on their faces—bewilderment, surprise, fear...

Cao Xing swept his gaze over the crowd and was the first to speak: "Where are you from?"

His voice was calm yet carried authority, making the group outside involuntarily tense up, for a moment not daring to speak.

They could feel that although this Lord was young, he gave off a savage, terrifying aura, like a Beast lying in wait.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

A moment later, a young man with disheveled clothes but a handsome face stepped forward.

He bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Honorable and powerful Lord, please allow me to extend my highest respect to you."

"We are refugees from Frostwind Town. My father was Baron Frostwind: Goffrey Green."

"Just a few days ago, that group of bloodthirsty and brutal Monsters suddenly descended. Frostwind Town was overrun by those Monsters, and my father’s Baron Guard Team all died in the fighting."

"Including my father himself... he also, in the midst of battle, unfortunately fell."

At this point, a trace of pain surfaced in his eyes, and his voice grew somewhat choked.

"But at the final moment, a group of powerful soldiers descended from the sky."

"They slew all the Blood Soldiers and rescued us."

"However... the Frostwind Town after the battle was completely destroyed by those Monsters. The houses turned into ruins, and the Earth was drenched in Blood, no longer fit for habitation."

"After that, I led the remaining townsfolk and wandered endlessly across the Gale Snow Plain."

"Yet... this snowfield is too vast. We walked for many days and still couldn’t find any place suitable for living."

"On the way, because of the harsh weather and the attacks of Beasts in the snow, we lost many townsfolk..."

Stifled sobbing rose from within the crowd; many of those who died were their own kin.

The young man took a deep breath and continued, "We kept wandering in the Gale Snow Plain, but because the Bloody Army is rampaging everywhere and war is breaking out all over, there is simply no place fit to live."

"We even almost gave up hope..."

"Until yesterday, when we met an old gentleman who could fly as well."

"He told us that if we went southwest, there was a prosperous and powerful Territory, and that the Lord there would take us in."

"So we made our way here."

The young man’s account was orderly, his tone filled with sincerity and earnestness.

The old gentleman who could fly that he mentioned should be Cao Yi, the Subject Cao Xing sent out yesterday; the timing matched.

Even so, Cao Xing still had a trace of doubt in his heart.

After all, Cao Xing knew very well what the Nobles of this world were like.

Selfish and indifferent, treating commoners as tools, as livestock, never really seeing them as human.

And this young man, as the son of a Baron, was likewise a Noble.

Cao Xing looked at the young man in front of him and asked, "Then why didn’t you leave on your own, instead of choosing to bring these townsfolk along?"

"In an environment as harsh as the Gale Snow Plain, these townsfolk can’t offer you any help, and may even become a burden."

Hearing this, the young man answered solemnly, "Because they are the townsfolk of Frostwind Town, the Subjects of the Green family."

"Under my father’s governance, the town was prosperous and peaceful, and the townsfolk lived and worked in contentment there."

"Even though the town has now been destroyed and my father has fallen in battle, the Honor of the Green family still remains, and I still have the responsibility to protect them!"

"I must lead the remaining townsfolk to find a new place suitable for living and start everything over from scratch."

His tone was firm and sincere, and an unyielding light shone in his eyes.

Cao Xing studied him carefully, then looked at the townsfolk behind him and asked, "Is what he said true?"

The townsfolk all nodded, then started responding over one another.

"It’s true, mighty Lord.
