Chapter 2265 - The Experts Set Out, Sword Pointed at the North! (1/2)

Chapter 2265: The Experts Set Out, Sword Pointed at the North!

“Relax; they’re friends, not enemies!” Wang Chong said lightly, apparently knowing what the people behind him were thinking.

The mood instantly turned awkward.

Everybody knew that the King of Foreign Lands was exceptionally intelligent and powerful. No one had imagined that Wang Chong would have a master!

“Heheh, Senior, my respects.”

The first to react was Zhangchou Jianqiong. With a smile, Zhangchou Jianqiong calmly bowed.

After all, he had a close relationship with Wang Chong, and the existence of the Demonic Emperor Old Man was no secret to him.

Wang Chong was the number one meritorious official of the Great Tang, and the feats he had achieved were difficult to match. It would not be excessive to say that he had saved the Great Tang again and again.

And this old man was Wang Chong’s master, so he naturally deserved all their respect.

Moreover, in terms of age, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief were both much older than Zhangchou Jianqiong, Zhang Shougui, and Wang Zhongsi.

“Paying respects to Senior!”

Ozmish Khagan, Yeon Gaesomun, and the others quickly responded, bowing with reverential looks on their faces.

Since this was the King of Foreign Lands’ master, it was no wonder he was able to penetrate through the blizzard to reach this distant land.

“Master, what’s the situation?”

Ignoring them, Wang Chong walked up to the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief.

The Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief had not taken part in the war of the northeast. This was partially because Genesis Supreme was so powerful that they wouldn’t be much help even if they went over. In addition, Wang Chong had finished planning, and he was certain that he could defeat An Lushan.

However, it was also because Wang Chong had held a discussion with the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief before the war.

An Lushan’s rebellion in the northeast really did need to be put down, but this extremely frigid weather sweeping through the world was the source of everything and was the more urgent problem.

If they didn’t find a way to handle it, they would only be treating the symptoms. Even if Wang Chong won the war of the northeast, in the end, it would be as substantial as a moon in the water.

Thus, before the war, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief had set off to the extreme north to investigate the truth of the Great Ice Age, at the same time seeking a method to stop it.

Both the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief were peak experts, making them capable of venturing into the extreme north without being affected by the cold.

“We basically know where the cold wave is originating from!” the Demonic Emperor Old Man coldly said, his first words leaving everyone shocked.

“The storm is gathering at the ocean at the ends of the extreme north. In addition, I and the Wushang Village Chief have discovered extremely powerful pulses of energy. From the look of it, there is at least one Grotto Heaven realm expert presiding.

“This is an extremely important matter, so after pondering it, we decided that it would be very difficult for the two of us to deal with it.

“In order to avoid alarming the snake, we decided to beat a temporary retreat and send you that letter.”

This meeting naturally wasn’t a coincidence. There had been some communication beforehand.

Moreover, the two of them had spent nearly a month here and had gathered a great deal of information.

“Master, Village Chief, thank you for your work. I must continue to trouble you for this cold wave,” Wang Chong respectfully said. “No matter what, we must resolve this matter!”

“Mm.”

The Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief nodded.

The two of them had seen the effects of the cold wave on the world. The longer this was delayed, the more dangerous it would be to the world, perhaps even the end of civilization.

Moreover, with each passing day, more of the common folk back in the Central Plains would die in the cold. This matter could no longer be delayed.

“Chong-er, the Celestial God Organization is extremely strong. Though you have killed two Supremes, the organization remains strong, and there is no telling how many hidden experts they have. We must be cautious,” the Wushang Village Chief gravely said.

It was precisely because they knew how powerful their foe was that they understood how dangerous this matter was. This had also played a role in their decision to serve as scouts for Wang Chong.

The two of them were rather old and didn’t care that much about death, whereas Wang Chong was the hero of the realm, the focus of their faith and belief. Nothing could be allowed to happen to him.

“Mm.”

Wang Chong nodded, a flicker of emotion in his heart.

The group quickly set off with the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief, pushing through the blizzard toward that ocean at the ends of the earth.

Past the arctic forests and another ten days northward, amidst an intensifying blizzard, Wang Chong’s group finally reached their objective.

Even though he had lived a lifetime and had memories from another world, this was Wang Chong’s first time here.

Whoosh!
