Cao Xing did not pay much attention to the mist and went straight to Renice’s residence.
Soon, he pushed open the door.
At this mont, Renice was sitting beside the fireplace, tuning her longbow.
Upon seeing Cao Xing, the archer swiftly stood up and respectfully greeted him.
"Lord, good evening."
Cao Xing didn’t speak, but his gaze fell on her hand.
There was a greenish bruise that looked like sothing had bitten her.
Cao Xing frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"
Renice replied softly, "Last ti in that forest, I encountered a poison beast and got a small injury during the fight."
"But now it’s almost healed."
After speaking, she hid the injured hand behind her back, seemingly a little shy.
Cao Xing directly reached out, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into his arms.
"You’ve worked hard, Renice," Cao Xing’s caring voice rang out.
The woman in his arms suddenly had a mist of tears in her eyes.
A strong woman like her was usually silent, as if nothing could bring her down.
But that was for outsiders.
When alone with Cao Xing, she would let down all her defenses.
At this mont, hearing the lord’s concern, she seed to find a harbor she could rely on, and waves of warmth filled her heart.
"No... it wasn’t hard."
"To serve the lord is my honor..."
After hearing this, Cao Xing gently lifted her up, then sat on the edge of the bed and had a mont of intimacy.
Renice closed her eyes, enjoying this rare mont of solitude.
After a while, she seed to rember sothing and said softly, "Lord, let report the situation I’ve probed during this period?"
"Alright," Cao Xing nodded slightly.
Renice began, "The place you asked to probe is quite far. I rode the griffin and traveled day and night for almost three days, crossing over six thousand kiloters to reach the destination."
"It’s a rarely visited original forest."
"The forest is very large. I estimate it’s at least ten tis the size of Gale Snow Plain."
Cao Xing was slightly surprised. According to Renice, the scale of this forest was quite vast.
It’s important to know that the area of Gale Snow Plain, even its widest region’s diater, exceeds five to six hundred kiloters.
And this original forest is ten tis the size of Gale Snow Plain.
One can imagine that inside there must be nurous monsters or beasts and so unknown opportunities.
Renice continued her narrative.
"Then, I kept going deeper into the forest."
"On the way, I encountered so beasts and never-before-seen monsters. The deeper I went, the stronger the monsters got!"
"So of them even made feel I wasn’t a match."
"But I didn’t fight these monsters; I bypassed them and continued exploring deeper into the forest."
"After approximately two days of exploration..."
"I discovered the ancient tribe you ntioned!"
At this point, Renice’s tone carried a hint of excitent.
"Later, I spent several days probing there and found that there are indeed many elves living inside."
"They still maintain an ancient way of life, conducting rituals and hunting every day."
"I roughly estimated that the number of elves is no less than five hundred."
Hearing this number, Cao Xing showed a look of surprise in his eyes.
After all, such a quantity could already be considered a large tribe.
Moreover, in their Western Continent, the Elf Clan was very rare.
At least Cao Xing had only seen one pure-blood Elf Clan mber, and it was dead.
In other words, any Elf Clan mber could sell for a sky-high price!
And the tribe has so many elves. If those slave rchants knew, they would find ways to level the entire forest.
"I understand, Renice. As for that tribe, I’ll send people over after this monster siege is over."
"For now, use this soul to see if you can break through."
Renice watched the bright soul in Cao Xing’s hand, her eyes showing expectation.
"Alright, I’ll give it a try..."
After speaking, she stood and then placed the soul into her body.
A powerful wave of soul surged.
However, just less than half a minute later, the aura stopped abruptly.
Seeing this, Cao Xing realized sothing.
"Did it fail?"
However, it was within his expectations.
After all, he had succeeded twice with the souls before, along with one Heart of Power—he had already gained a lot!
And to this point, it was his first failure in breaking through the Commander Level Heart of Power, not unacceptable.
But Renice seed downcast at this mont.
"Lord, I..."
Before Renice could finish speaking, she suddenly felt her hand being grabbed, and she again fell into the arms of the man before her.
Before she could speak, her lips were sealed.
After the initial shock, Renice reacted.
As Cao Xing’s hands gradually removed her war armor, this female archer’s eyes gradually grew hazy.
In no ti, the room’s atmosphere grew heated.
After another hour, she was thoroughly comforted.
Cao Xing gently covered her with the blanket and then gradually got out of bed.
After leaving Renice’s room.
He checked the ti; it was already six o’clock in the evening.
