Chapter 1383: Chapter 1383: Leaving the Tower

Leaving the Tower

The Tower Keeper looked at Xu Zijing with some surprise: "I didn’t expect that there are still young people in Xia Country who know my name."

"The deeds of the General back in the day are hard to remain unknown."

"Hahaha, it’s nothing, not worth mentioning at all."

Ivan Yevich chuckled and casually steered the conversation away.

Su Chengyu immediately realized that the events Xu Zijing referred to were obviously not anything positive; it was likely because of those very events that Ivan Yevich, despite being a War Emperor, was dispatched to this place of exile to suppress the Nether Clan in the Tower of Eternal Winter.

"Back in the day, His Highness the Regent King promised me that if I were to break through from War Emperor to War God here, I could return to Thousand Tents City. It’s just unfortunate that soon after my arrival here, the internal and external collusion of the Nether Clan snatched away the control of the Tower of Eternal Winter."

"General Yevich, do you happen to know what the Nether Clan has been up to all these years with the Tower of Eternal Winter?" Xu Zijing asked bluntly.

They were not here to reproach or blame; Yevich’s mistakes would certainly be pursued by the Bei Luo Empire. Ultimately, the two came here for the Bam Alliance.

However, Yevich shook his head: "Sorry, these years I’ve been trying to protect myself by sealing myself in this slice of heaven and earth. It seems like the Nether Clan doesn’t want to completely break ties with me, so they didn’t push their luck. As a result, we’ve kept to our separate ways."

Yevich’s words sounded nice, but both Su Chengyu and Xu Zijing understood.

Even if he had made a prison for himself, confining himself to a small piece of the world, in essence, he was completely imprisoned by the Nether Clan.

"Well, congratulations to the General for regaining control over the Tower of Eternal Winter. In addition, I have a small favor to ask of the General..."

"I understand!"

Before Xu Zijing could finish, Yevich immediately understood Xu Zijing’s intention and said: "You want to take the Red Robed High Priest away, right? Don’t worry, I know nothing. All I know is that the people of the Nether Clan in the Tower of Eternal Winter have all been suppressed by me in this rebellion!"

"Then our thanks to the General."

"It’s no big deal, I only hope that you both won’t be too conspicuous, and don’t let this Red Robed reappear on the opposition side of our Bei Luo Empire..."

"I understand, I won’t make things difficult for the General."

Bei Luo and Xia Country were not enemies to begin with, and Yevich had been rescued because of their intervention.

Most importantly, Yevich was aware if he dared to renege on his word, the trouble that would ensue could be far greater than that posed by the Nether Clan.

A Red Robed High Priest, accompanied by the Demon Hunting Office of Xia Nation, was definitely not something that a War Emperor exiled to the Tower of Eternal Winter could handle.

Moreover, Yevich knew in his heart that even if these two took away the Red Robed, they would never allow him to publicly appear betraying the Nether Clan; otherwise, taking him away would be of no consequence at all.

As for what exactly they intended to do, Yevich did not know, nor did he care to know.

For him, at this moment, the most important thing was to successfully ascend to the War God status after taking control of the Tower of Eternal Winter, a building equivalent to a King-grade Divine Artifact.

Yevich understood that only by doing so could he leave this barren and exile place and return to the center of power within the Bei Luo Empire.

Then Xu Zijing spoke to Yevich about the matters concerning the City of Eternal Winter, and after realizing that they intended to act against the Nether Clan, Yevich immediately expressed that he could take responsibility for this matter as well.

After all, when the control over the Tower of Eternal Winter was snatched away from him, the external City of Eternal Winter had played no small part.

"Are you guys done talking?"

A cold voice with reddish eyes rose from the side, and Su Chengyu immediately turned around, somewhat guardedly watching this Land Immortal from the Nether Clan, while his peripheral vision glanced toward You Ming.

Having fully acknowledged Su Chengyu, You Ming gave him a look of understanding, and only after that did Su Chengyu relax, assured that the Red Robed High Priest would not act against them.

"We’re almost finished. However, after leaving the Tower of Eternal Winter, there are still a few things we would like to ask the senior to do."

The reddish eyes narrowed as they spoke, "I remind you, even if I agree to help you, I have my own bottom lines."

The bottom line for Red Eyes was that she could not personally initiate any action against the Nether Clan.

Xu Zijing smiled and said, "Don’t worry, we just want to ask the senior to gather some information for us, something as simple as asking a few Nether Clansmen some questions."

Red Eyes did not reply, only shifting her gaze aside, without any reaction.

In her heart, she knew all too well what the Demon Slayer Department was using her for, but now she could only delude herself while sticking to her so-called bottom line.

Seeing this, You Ming hesitated to speak further, but before he could open his mouth, Xu Zijing beat him to it, "Senior, you can rest assured, after this task is done, the Demon Slayer Department will not ask you to do anything else. Even if you wish to return to the Nether Clan and become our enemy, we will never stop you."

Red Eyes snorted coldly, "You know very well that I have no intention of going back to the Nether Clan!"

With her strength and status, rejoining the Nether Clan would not be a problem, but she no longer had the standpoint to do so, as returning to the Nether Clan would mean giving up on You Ming.

Xu Zijing sincerely spoke, "Doesn’t that prove that we truly do not hold any prejudice against You Ming?"

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, she offered neither agreement nor denial.

But deep down Red Eyes understood that even as a Red Robed High Priest, the Nether Clan would absolutely never accept You Ming, a half-breed of human and Nether descent.

Relying on the Human Clan was the only way for her to survive.

After the discussion, Xu Zijing activated his Daoism Method, and a Mysterious Door appeared before everyone.

General Yevich, who was standing aside, marveled at the sight, realizing that Xu Zijing’s Daoism Method completely avoided the path he had opened for them and directly connected this place with the outside world.

He immediately understood why this man was capable of sneaking into the Tower of Eternal Winter to release the Red Robed High Priest.

The resourcefulness of this approach would probably have only been noticed after he had infiltrated, even if General Yevich had complete control of the Tower of Eternal Winter.

After passing through the Mysterious Door and arriving outside the Tower of Eternal Winter, Su Chengyu looked up at Xu Zijing and said, "Did you deliberately show this method to Yevich?"

Xu Zijing nodded, "This person is notorious for being unscrupulous, and even in the Bei Luo Empire, he has an extremely bad reputation. I deliberately showed my hand to make him more wary of Xia Country."

It was a warning shot, Su Chengyu understood in his heart, then he turned back to look at the Tower of Eternal Winter and asked, "How will what happened here be conveyed to Thousand Tents City?"

Xu Zijing shook his head, "That depends on how this general thinks. But one thing is for certain: everything that has happened will definitely not be closely linked to our Demon Slayer Department. We are merely a helpful passerby."

"Even if just a passerby, our identity must have been exposed to the Bei Luo Royal Family by now, right?"

Su Chengyu pressed for an answer.

"Yes, not only that, but an order has already come from within the department: you must make a trip to Thousand Tents City."
