Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 106 - 107: Welcoming Guests

At the same time,

In the Crown Prince’s office at the Heavenly Palace,

"Ye Xiuhu and the others is dead…... damn it!"

Seeing the shattered soul orbs on the desk, rage erupted from Xue Tianao’s eyes! The furious blonde man couldn’t help but raise his hand and smack it down,

turning the entire blue sandalwood desk into powder! The sudden explosion of golden magical power made the guards around the office shudder, and those with weaker strength even couldn’t help but fall to their knees.

Seeing this situation,

Talowey, who was helping with the documents on the side, couldn’t help but tremble.

She hurriedly went to Xue Tianao ’s side, patted his shoulder, and softly comforted him,

"Calm down, Tianao. What happened?"

"My good brother is dead."

"What exactly happened?"

"Sigh, in order to find the Child of Destiny as soon as possible, I sent Ye Xiuhu and the others with the unmanned reconnaissance devices I made to search near the Winter Forest. But just now, their soul orbs shattered."

"Did they encounter an abyssal demon?"

"Probably. Both of their soul orbs showed signs of contamination. However, Amok’s orb was shattered, but it had no signs of contamination."

"Tianao, do you suspect that Amok was... murdered by someone?"

"Heh, it’s very likely. I don’t think my people would die in accidents for no reason."

With that said,

A dazzling faint golden light and a chilling murderous intent burst out from Xue Tianao’s blue eyes.

Who would dare to harm my people?

--

"Tianao..."

Seeing Xue Tianao’s angry appearance, Talowey couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.

But she knew her man’s character well.

He didn’t care about one’s background, ignored the noble system and slavery, and valued people based on their abilities.

Ye Xiuhu was a partner Xue Tianao met while he was inspecting the commoners and acting as an adventurer. Although Ye Xiuhu was born into a poor farming family, Xue Tianao took him in after discovering his talents, breaking the rules to accept him into the royal knights and granting him the title of ’knight.’

In the Snow Night Empire, only nobles could obtain the title of ’knight.’ In order to help Ye Xiuhu, Xue Tianao was even punished by the Emperor back then.

In fact,

Not just Ye Xiuhu, but many others were promoted by Xue Tianao. Out of gratitude, they were extremely loyal to him.

Similarly,

In return, Xue Tianao didn’t hesitate to treat these partners as brothers from the bottom of his heart.

Now, his brother had died mysteriously, and it was only natural for Xue Tianao to be furious.

With a helpless sigh in her heart, Talowey slowly left the office and closed the door. As a woman who had been with Xue Tianao for a long time, she knew that her man needed some time to calm down alone.

However,

’Ye Xiuhu and the others died Encountering an abyssal demon’

’and one of them even being killed by a human,’

’In the northern territory, who would target Amok? Could it be the Duke family? They had always been at odds with the royal family and disliked Tianao...’

Perhaps,

This is a good idea.

Regardless of whether they did it or not, it can be used as an excuse.

Once the affairs of the Imperial City are settled, use this as a pretext to take action against the Duke family...

Killing the envoy sent by the royal family is a grave crime~

’The empire must centralize power.’

Thinking of this, Talowey showed a seductive smile,

...

And so, pondering as she walked, Talowey left the Crown Prince’s Palace.

As she stepped out of the palace gates, the purple-haired woman’s brows furrowed slightly. Then, revealing her signature elegant smile, she looked at the blonde woman in a platinum robe beside her.

And this woman,

Was the fourth princess of the Snow Night Empire, Feng ling - Valentin.

"Oh? Your Highness? What brings you here?"

To Talowey’s greeting, feng ling just gave a cold smile,

"Why did my brother suddenly lose his temper?"

"Sigh~"

Accustomed to the princess’s attitude, Talowey didn’t mind it too much. She helplessly waved her hand,

"It’s nothing, just that Ye Xiuhu and the others died."

"Died? Died in the Northern Territory? How did they die?"

"Who knows?"

"Then, do they have any news of the Child of Destiny?"

"Well, not yet."

"Not yet, huh..."

Hearing this answer, feng ling showed a hint of unease. However, this emotion was quickly hidden. Then, feng ling spoke slowly,

"In that case, I’ll go to the Northern Territory."

"Hmm? You, Your Highness?"

"Yes, to avoid a war with the Crimson Lotus Empire and the Asumos Church, we must ensure the safety of the Child of Destiny as soon as possible. I’ll personally lead a team to search, just as the Fourth Army Group has just withdrawn from the southern border, and we’re not short of manpower."

"Even so, there’s no need to trouble Your Highness. We’ll handle these matters."

"Aren’t you and my brother still negotiating? Focus on your business, and leave the search for the Child of Destiny to me."

With that,

Ignoring Talowey’s opposition, feng ling turned and left without giving the purple-haired woman any face.

As for that,

Talowey could only smile helplessly, speaking slowly to feng ling ’s retreating figure,

"Your Highness, if you find the Child of Destiny, remember to bring her back~ The Crown Prince has been looking forward to it for a long time~"

"..."

Hearing these words, feng ling shuddered, her steps pausing momentarily. It seemed that her heart was filled with rage because of this sentence.

But soon,

The fourth princess regained her composure and walked silently forward, not responding to Talowey’s words.

On the other side,

Watching the gradually disappearing golden figure, Talowey slightly narrowed her eyes, revealing a meaningful smile...

---

One day later,

Snow Night Empire’s Northern Territory, the main city of Windy City,

At the city gate, dozens of Blizzard Knights and soldiers from various fortresses had gathered to form a hundred-strong team. Of course, with the temporary resolution of the abyssal demon crisis, their purpose for gathering here was not to go to the front lines but to welcome guests...

With the gradual recovery of combat power from the Blizzard Knights and other nearby forces of Windy City,

The defense of Galros Fortress,

Gradually returned to the control of Marquis. The Black Rose family, who temporarily guarded the fortress, withdrew from Galros Fortress one after another after completing the handover mission. Although the Black Rose family guarded Galros Fortress with a purpose, it is an indisputable fact that they took on the risk of facing the attacks from the abyssal demons.

Therefore, as the Northern Marquis Xiumu naturally needed to show hospitality as the host and express gratitude to the Black Rose family.

So,

Here comes this welcoming team,

As a member of the Marquis family’s side branch, the young generation’s Benjamin received instructions from Marquis Sumu today to replace the busy marquis at the city gate to greet the guests and be responsible for entertaining the Black Rose family’s distinguished guests.

Of course, the ones to be entertained were not the entire Corps, but some special individuals.

In fact,

Benjamin detested such a task.

Not to mention that entertaining guests is tedious and uninteresting. The fact that they were from the Sadiq Empire made Benjamin extremely upset. After all, decades ago, the Snow Night Empire had met with the Sadiq Empire on the battlefield for quite some time.

Deep hatred and enmity exist between the two parties.

As a person of the Snow Night Empire, there was no fondness for the family of the Sadiq Empire. Not to mention, the purpose of these people coming to provide support was for the Galatmo Ice Crystal Mine!

"Sigh, annoying."

Benjamin, wearing heavy armor, couldn’t help but sigh and complain,

Now Benjamin had only one thought in mind, and that was to quickly end this so-called welcoming party...

And so,

Under Benjamin’s impatient gaze, the solid and heavy city gate slowly opened.

Accompanied by the fluttering of the Black Rose family flag, dozens of knights clad in white cloaks and armed with black-gold armor strode into Windy City with a formidable presence, all in neat rows.

There were only dozens of them, but each of them had solemn expressions and sharp gazes, the momentum they emitted caused the welcoming party and onlookers to shudder involuntarily. The awe-inspiring sense of authority struck them without any anger...

Just by their presence alone,

One could imagine the combat power of this team...

"Heh, showing off"

Feeling the strong oncoming momentum, Benjamin pretended to be calm and snorted,

However,

Just as he let out a ’disdainful’ snort, the young representative of the Marquis family couldn’t help but notice a special presence among the knights.

And the moment he saw that black figure, Benjamin’s eyes suddenly shrank,

’Who... who is she?!’

Is,

Is she from the Black Rose family?

In an instant, Benjamin held his breath, and his gaze and attention were drawn to the black-haired girl at the center of the knights...
