"Marita? She actually found my territory?"
When they parted last time, Cao Xing had given her a communication device and told her to contact him once she reached the Gale Snowfield.
He had not expected her to come over without a word.
Though somewhat startled, Cao Xing was quite happy.
After all, this woman could be said to be his benefactor.
The first time, she had given him the Devouring Demon Box, allowing him to successfully devour a demon and gain the powerful ability of Demon Transformation.
The second time, she had given him a magic seed, the Moon Crown Orb Fragment, and... her body...
It could be said that she had helped him greatly throughout this journey.
Thus, Cao Xing directly tapped "Accept."
About two kilometers from the territory was the boundary of the Furnace's coverage.
A rather ordinary-looking carriage approached.
Cao Xing quickly walked out of the territory to greet her.
From afar, he could see that there was only a coachman on the carriage, not even a single guard.
"So low-key?"
But considering the woman's strength, it was not surprising.
After all, she was a Master Tier mage. Her own strength was already the strongest guard.

She saw Cao Xing standing in the snow ahead with a large number of soldiers, waiting to welcome her.
The carriage curtain was gradually lifted.
A mature and beautiful face peeked out from within.
It was Marita.
Her waterfall-like brown hair was slightly curled and casually draped over her shoulders, with a few strands gently fluttering in the breeze.
Beneath her curved willow-leaf brows were a pair of sapphire-like, deep eyes.
She seemed somewhat different from the last time he had seen her.
After carefully dressing up, she appeared even more radiant
