During the more than three hours of waiting, King of Whirling Clouds Ashad ordered the elements to find some food and drinks suitable for humans to entertain Su Yu.
Su Yu did not refuse their kindness.
Though the food looked rather unappetizing, he still sampled a little.
During those three hours, the King of Whirling Clouds also sent his sharpest scout—a Gale Element—to the Sands of Time Kingdom at top speed to investigate.
It took only two hours for the scout to return to the City of Whirling Clouds.
The scout reported to Ashad, "Your Majesty, the Sand King really is dead! The Sands of Time Kingdom is in complete chaos now. Sand Elements are running madly through the streets everywhere."
"Excellent!" Ashad was overjoyed.
A prompt sounded in Su Yu's ear at just the right moment:
"Ding! The Legendary Quest Whirling Cloud City Defense Battle has been completed. You have received 600,000 War Contribution Points." "Ding! Due to King of Whirling Clouds Ashad's promise, all your points will be exchanged for 2 Rank 7 Legendary Quality Whirling Cloud Cores."
Upon receiving the game prompts, Su Yu breathed a quiet sigh of relief. The quest had gone fairly smoothly.
He walked over to the Sand King's Core in the center of the hall, preparing to store it in his necklace.
This core did not match Su Yu's attributes, making it unsuitable as breakthrough material. However, it was worth far more than a Whirling Cloud Core! He had to put it away carefully.
Su Yu reached out and lifted the Sand King's Core.
But at that moment, a breeze suddenly appeared and pressed down on the back of his hand.
Su Yu was startled.
Ashad's deep voice reached his ears. "Adventurer, could you sell me the Sand King's Core?
