Even the little girl who seed to be five or six years old carried an aura that filled them with fear!
Faced with the anxious villagers of Puteng Village.
Cao Xing didn’t offer any comforting words.
He knew these villagers had just arrived in a new environnt and would need ti to adapt.
So, he simply said: "You should know the specifics."
"I am the Lord here, and my territory is currently in need of manpower."
"As it happens, I have so connections with Fitz Walker Baron, so he chose to place you in my territory."
"From today onwards, you will be serving ."
"Any questions?"
Village Chief Zelco was taken aback but quickly shook his head and said: "It’s an honor to work in your great territory!"
The old village chief agreed very promptly.
After a pause, he continued: "Esteed Lord, we will serve you wholeheartedly in the future."
"Apart from this, do you have any other requirents for us?"
"Requirents?"
"Like how long we need to work each day, or how much work we need to complete..."
Cao Xing shook his head, "Not that many requirents, just try to work hard."
"As for whether you’ll slack off, other staff will supervise you."
"Any other questions?"
Village Chief Zelco looked puzzled and said, "No... no more..."
Other villagers also looked puzzled.
They originally thought this Lord would give them a hard ti, then assign so grueling tasks after seeing them.
But it seed that was not the Lord’s intention?
For a mont, everyone couldn’t figure out this Chosen Lord’s temperant.
Just as Cao Xing prepared to recruit all of them into his territory, he suddenly sensed so commotion above him.
There was so noise on the eaves of the advanced residential building above.
Then, two figures fell directly from above.
And the landing spot was right next to the Lord, where the little girl of four or five years stood!
This sudden scene left the villagers in utter confusion.
Then their eyes filled with extre terror!
But the situation unfolded too quickly for the villagers to react.
Just as the two figures were about to crash onto Tong Chuchu’s head.
Eliza quickly reacted, grasping Tong Chuchu’s arm and pulling her away.
Cao Xing reacted just as swiftly, raising his Magic Wand directly.
An Ice Wall Skill appeared out of thin air, lifting the two figures about to hit the ground.
"Ouch!"
With a cry of pain, the two slender figures slid down from the Ice Wall, landing on the ground.
They didn’t sustain any damage.
The two who fell held their bottoms, displaying expressions of lingering fear.
They looked like two thirteen or fourteen-year-old children, also very slender.
At this mont, the villagers, having seen their faces, were already terrified, their faces turning ashen and their bodies rigid!
Zelco rushed over almost imdiately, grabbing the two children’s arms, and asked in a trembling voice!
"Sale, Bodi! What are you doing!"
In conditions of over minus twenty degrees, a layer of cold sweat had appeared on his forehead.
Everyone could see that the two girls beside the Lord were absolutely important to him.
If anything were to happen to them, even sacrificing everyone’s lives in the village wouldn’t be enough!
The children’s bodies shook in fear at the village chief’s roar.
They ca to their senses and realized they’d made a ss, a big ss!
They hurried to get up from the ground, anxiously apologizing: "Sorry, Chief!"
The old chief, unconcerned about much else, directly grasped their shoulders, pressing them to Cao Xing.
"Quickly apologize to the Lord and the girls by his side, hurry up!"
The two kids were stunned by fear, moving like puppets to Eliza and Tong Chuchu.
Then they directly knelt down.
"Sorry! Esteed Lord, and the esteed young lady, please forgive our recklessness for offending you!"
anwhile, Eliza and Tong Chuchu, holding each other’s hands, looked at Cao Xing in confusion.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and everyone held their breath.
Even the two kids on the ground trembled constantly.
Everyone involuntarily glanced at the Lord, awaiting his judgnt.
It’s fair to say, almost the entire village’s lives rested in this young man’s hands!
Cao Xing didn’t speak; he could see that the old chief, despite scolding the two kids, was actually protecting them.
If they were in other territories with bad-tempered Lords, these kids’ actions would be enough to cost them their lives.
In severe cases, it might implicate villagers from the whole village.
That was why they felt such fear.
Cao Xing waved his hand: "Get up, rember to be careful next ti, and don’t climb to such high places."
"If you fall, you could easily get seriously injured."
The advanced refuge is as tall as twelve ters, fall from such a height, and even a light injury could break limbs for these kids with their constitution.
Upon hearing this, the oppressive atmosphere instantly paused.
Everyone’s expression shifted from initial horror and fear to bewildernt.
It seed with the Lord’s few words, an impending storm disappeared without trace.
