Random Recommendation:
At this moment, in the ruins area.
Cao Xing led his group of subordinates out of the ruins entrance.
He looked toward a plain over a hundred kilometers away, where a powerful aura soared into the sky. It seemed to have been waiting there for their arrival.
Cao Xing said, "Let's go. We're heading over."
Everyone nodded casually, without the slightest nervousness about facing a Demigod.
Kailan, who was still tied up like a twisted rope, had not said a word since his father and Cao Xing made their wager.
He knew he had caused far too much trouble this time...
If this went badly, it would not just be him—the entire Northwind Kingdom might be dragged down with him.
At that thought, endless regret welled up within Kailan.
He regretted proposing that wager in the first place.
His gaze toward Cao Xing was also filled with complicated emotions.
At the side, Taliya, the Rose Goddess, bit her lip and said softly, "I'm sorry, Lord Cao Xing."
"This matter started because of me... If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been dragged into the dispute between me and the Northwind Kingdom."
"In this battle, I hope to fight beside you and contribute my strength."
"Even if I die here, I will have no regrets!"
After saying that, Taliya bent deeply at the waist. Her red hair cascaded down like a waterfall.
Seeing how serious she was, everyone stopped and looked at Taliya in surprise.
Cao Xing said nothing. He walked up to her and reached out to help her up.
The moment their bodies touched, Taliya's fingers trembled slightly.
But she did not pull away. Instead, she raised her head and immediately saw Cao Xing's stern face and the faint smile at the corner of his lips.
