The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 467 - 308: Frozen Land

...

The man lightly stepped out of the Central Palace, heading as quickly as possible to the Frozen Castle crafted by General Frozen in the Frozen Land.

The Frozen Land is a deep mountain, located in the depths of the mountains between the Sun Kingdom and the Divine Domain. Decades ago, this territory was taken over by General Frozen, and no one dared to reclaim it.

General Frozen is one of the four pillars supporting them. He also controls the Crusaders along with the Central Palace. His authority is so great that whatever he desires, no one dares to offend him, not even one of the three other pillars.

Considering all of this, the Lord became even more uncertain about the decisions he made, but now he really couldn’t return to the Central Palace and the Ladder of Hope unless he sent a message first.

This journey took him three days, arriving at the valley at noon on the third day, white as soft clouds, snow-covered.

Gently shaking for a moment, he stopped. After persuading himself to continue, he took another step and stopped again. He approached the castle very slowly, his heart filled with fear.

Around him were the Crusaders, patrolling the ground, but they did nothing to the cold and terrified Lord, who was walking so slowly towards the Ice Palace.

The Lord took nearly an hour to move from the valley entrance to the castle, an incredibly slow pace, showing how afraid the Lord was. Once he reached the doorknob, he realized there was really no hope of turning back and straightening himself. He took a deep breath before knocking.

After he knocked, the door slowly opened, with no servants present, causing the young Lord’s fine hairs to stand on end. Not missing his step, which seemed to ignore his surroundings, he demonstrated a demeanor befitting a Lord, even though he was terrified to his core. He entered the Frozen Castle, walking along a set of light stones towards the room where Zhong Hui sat on the icy throne.

"Welcome to my castle, I’m curious to know what the master of the Dragon Army is doing here." he said, a smile revealing itself on his lips, a genuinely joyful smile.

Zhong Hui was not foolish. Previously, he had sent the Crusaders into the Underworld to hear news about Yan Xiaobao, and now a Lord appeared with his message. How could he not guess what the message was about?

Even God knew he worried that something might have gone wrong. What if this was a video showing General Frozen’s favorite theme of death? As he bowed before the powerful man, many thoughts swirled in his mind.

"Milod, I received a Memory Stone," the Lord said, on the ground, lifting his hand and the Memory Stone simultaneously.

Seeing the Memory Stone, a trace of impatience appeared in Zhong Hui’s eyes, his hand waved, and the stone was sucked into his palm, the smile on his face greatly increasing.

"Please stand up, my dear friend," Zhong Hui said with a smile, patting a woman who appeared beside him with one hand.

"Take this man to the treasury and let him choose any item he likes," General Frozen said, as if it meant absolutely nothing to him that his treasure was being taken away.

Though Zhong Hui seemed impatient in solitude, the young Lord suddenly impatiently left the room to enter the treasury. Quickly moving to his feet, the Lord once again bowed to Zhong Hui, then turned to follow the silent, cold woman before him.

With the hall left behind, Zhong Hui did not pay attention to the two figures leaving, but instead immediately placed the Memory Stone on his forehead. As the record of life and death began, he beamed with a smile and closed his eyes.

As Zhong Hui re-entered the game, time slowed down. Finally, after watching several times, he removed the stone from his forehead.

His face no longer carried a smile; instead, it seemed he was contemplating something important. After a while, a false smile appeared on his face, which grew larger over time, eventually erupting into loud laughter echoing off the icy walls of his Frozen Castle.

....

Hui Yue’s excuse for his soul fusion was quickly accepted by Xu Biao, and after some time, the two sat quietly in the headquarters, neither speaking but enjoying the silence.

"I think we should look at the different tasks available," Yan Xiaobao finally sighed, "Ideally, if we can find an escort mission to the Capital, but if we can’t, I suppose we’ll be fine with whatever comes up for the next few caverns."

Xu Biao nodded, agreeing after some time of searching, then picked up a large book, saying a piece of Parchment fell out.

"This is the book of all ongoing tasks," he explained to Yan Xiaobao’s odd expression, "I know it doesn’t look like much," he continued with a slightly embarrassed smile, "but it’s how we keep track of tasks."

Going through the tasks wasn’t as difficult as Yan Xiaobao expected. Initially, Xu Biao cleared the table, then he took out each task to read it. If it was an escort mission, he handed it to Yan Xiaobao; if it was not an escort mission, he put it aside on his own.

Through escort missions, most of them involved escorting wealthy young masters to academies in other cities, hoping they could improve and bring fortune and honor to their families.
