Chapter 378: Chapter 189: Hog Village Seeking Help, Action Plan!_2
Upon thinking of this, Cao Xing took out all the Cloud Yak hair from his backpack and then said,
“Yanni, I’m going to trouble you in the next few days. Use this hair to make a few sets of clothes first.”
“See if you can tailor them into coat styles, perfect for when we venture out.”
Hearing this, Xia Yanni quickly replied, “No… it’s no trouble…”
“You are the one working hard… Not only taking care of my daughter and but also managing such a large territory…”
As she said this, she shyly lowered her head and softly said,
“If… if you ever feel overwheld… you can always co to , Yanni…”
Toward the end, her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s whisper.
Yet Cao Xing heard it very clearly.
The mature, shy beauty before him lowered her head, her legs pressed together.
Just a glance made one want to hold her tenderly in their arms.
He was just about to step forward.
At that mont, a system prompt appeared.
[Hog Village Militia: Arnold requests to visit your territory. Do you agree?]
Cao Xing halted his steps, his mind filled with curiosity. “The militia from Hog Village wants to visit my territory. How did they find their way here?”
Xia Yanni noted Cao Xing’s expression and softly asked, “Is there sothing outside, my lord?”
“Yes, there’s a little matter.”
“Then… please, my lord, attend to it first. You can place the hair in the Storage Box; I’ll follow your instructions…”
Cao Xing acknowledged the importance of business and nodded, saying, “Okay.”
After speaking, he accepted Arnold’s request to visit.
Then Cao Xing left the Sewing Shop and headed straight outside the territory.
In the distance, a sowhat familiar figure hurriedly approached the city wall.
Since most Survivors’ territories now had Arrow Towers built,
those Natives had to apply before approaching.
Otherwise, upon entering the attack range, they would be t with rciless attacks from the Arrow Towers.
Cao Xing glanced over and saw only Arnold had co.
He opened the city gate and approached the other party.
Militia Arnold, upon seeing Cao Xing, exhibited a mix of excitent, relief, and various complex emotions.
Nearly trembling, he said, “Lord Cao Xing, I finally found you…”
Cao Xing asked, puzzled, “How did you get here?”
More intrigued by how the Natives found him than Arnold’s purpose,
given that he had just pulled a big job last night and didn’t want to be exposed so soon.
Arnold took a few deep breaths, seeming to calm his excitent,
then slowly explained.
“It’s like this, Lord Cao Xing.”
“When you ca to Hog Village previously, you ntioned to the Village Chief that your territory was nearby.”
“So we dispatched several militia n to search all over.”
“During this ti, I t several nearby Survivors Lords, paid so Crowns, and asked if they knew where you might be.”
“They then provided with a rough location.”
“Following their guidance, I searched all the way and saw this massive territory from afar, guessing it could be yours!”
Hearing Arnold’s explanation, Cao Xing nodded.
The location of his territory wasn’t much of a secret.
After all, using the Ice Dragon Horn last ti, many Survivors Lords already knew Cao Xing’s territory was nearby.
Moreover, although Cao Xing had pulled a job last night,
those Hunters shouldn’t suspect him,
because they believed Otherworldly Lords were weak, having no power to overthrow a camp of 600.
Cao Xing continued, “Arnold, what’s the reason for finding ?”
Militia Arnold imdiately said, “Lord Cao Xing, we’ve co seeking your help!”
“We at Hog Village recently encountered trouble, and with no other choice, we ca to you…”
“Trouble?” Cao Xing frowned.
“Yes!”
Arnold explained, “Recently, every night, Snow Demons appear in our Hog Village, and there’s more than one!”
“At most, there were even five Snow Demons!”
“They keep knocking on villagers’ doors each night, causing widespread panic.”
“You know the nature of Snow Demons. Once they’ve targeted soone, even if you don’t open the door at night, they’ll break in and devour the villagers’ hearts.”
“In just a few days, villagers whose hearts were taken by Snow Demons have reached dozens!”
At this point, Militia Arnold’s voice was filled with imnse fear.
Cao Xing also realized the gravity and instinctively asked, “Is Elena okay?”
Hearing the na, Militia Arnold hesitated for a mont,
then quickly said, “Lady Elena is temporarily safe.”
“However, last night, she too nearly suffered a Snow Demon attack and now fears leaving her house.”
“You know our village’s power is very weak; we have no ans of dealing with this.”
Hearing this, Cao Xing slightly relaxed.
After all, this woman had so connection with him and was quite decent.
If possible, Cao Xing didn’t want anything to happen to her.
But upon hearing that Elena faced a Snow Demon attack last night, he couldn’t help but feel worried.
Arnold, suppressing his fear, continued, “Lord Cao Xing, the Snow Demons, these evil beings, are just too powerful and cannot be killed.”
“And our strength at Hog Village is too weak. If we don’t seek aid, the entire village will be destroyed by this group of Snow Demons soon!”
