I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess Chapter 80 - Ice Giant
“Where are Little Zhou and the others?” Xiao Ran asked.
“When Lord Qin sent soone to call us over, we happened to bump into his father. You didn’t see it, but it was tragic.” Shen Yiming sighed.
And so that was the situation.
It was already ti for Little Zhou’s blind date today, but he had yet to go over.
His father asked around and found out that he was dead drunk in the Drunken Immortals Court. He was absolutely furious and rushed to Drunken Immortals Court with fire torches.
He chased him from upstairs to downstairs and back up again.
This skirmish only ended when Little Zhou leaped over the wall and escaped.
“He didn’t get hit at all?” Xiao Ran asked with curiosity.
“His father couldn’t outrun him. He had practiced the Fleeing Cataglyphis Technique that I taught him to a high level. In the end, even when all the guards attacked together, they couldn’t even touch the corner of his clothes.”
“…” Xiao Ran was at a loss for words.
“This ti, I summoned you here in a hurry because I have a task for you.”
Xiao Ran waited quietly for him to continue.
Shen Yiming said solemnly, “Just now, there is urgent news from the people in Qing Province, Horizon Prefecture. There’s a plague in Chen County and it has spread to several county cities. The people sent to investigate have all disappeared. They suspect that there’s a demon behind this. They can’t handle it, so they’re asking for reinforcents.”
“Why don’t you send people over from the base in Qing Province?”
Shen Yiming shook his head. “The person in charge over there died at the hands of the demons not long ago. They also suffered heavy losses. Although the demons have been arrested, they won’t recover anyti soon.”
There was a pause.
“We’ll split up this ti. I’ll go to Qing Province to deal with the ss there. You go to Chen County to deal with the plague and also assess the Divine Sword Guards in Horizon Prefecture.”
“Are we leaving now?” Xiao Ran asked.
“It’s very urgent. You and I will get started now. If you need assistants, I’ll arrange for it.”
Xiao Ran thought about it. It would be troubleso if there were too many people.
He could resolve this matter by himself. There was no need to mobilize so many people.
“I think it’s better that I go alone!”
“All right! If you really encounter sothing that you can’t resolve, don’t push yourself to settle it alone. Let know imdiately. I’ll rush over from Qing Province,” Shen Yiming reminded.
“Okay,” Xiao Ran agreed.
They left the Divine Sword Guards and Xiao Ran returned ho.
There was soone standing at the door. Who else could it be but Little Zhou?
“Why are you here?” Xiao Ran asked.
Little Zhou touched the back of his head awkwardly and stamred. Seeing that Xiao Ran was getting impatient, he said, “I forgot about the blind date today. My father looked for everywhere and threatened to break my damn legs.”
“And then you have nowhere to go and plan to hide from him at my place for a few days?”
“Brother Xiao, do you think it’s convenient?”
“I’m going to Chen County. I have sothing urgent to deal with,” Xiao Ran said.
“You have a new assignnt?”
“I just received news that a plague is spreading in Chen County. It has to be resolved as soon as possible.”
“I’m coming too.”
Xiao Ran remained silent and stared at him icily.
“Brother Xiao, think about it. It’s so inconvenient for you to be alone outside. I’ll go with you. With more people, you will have more helpers. I can even serve tea and ask for information.”
Xiao Ran couldn’t be bothered with him as he entered the courtyard.
Little Zhou followed him in like a puppy.
Xiao Ran put away the Eldest Princess’s painting. He then rode the mystical Night Illumination Dragon Horse towards Chen County.
Little Zhou followed shalessly, and Xiao Ran had no choice but to let him.
Fortunately, Chen County was not far from the capital city. With the Night Illumination Dragon Horse’s speed, it only took a day.
At nightfall,
the two of them entered a dilapidated temple, secured their horses, and sat in the temple hall.
Little Zhou lit the bonfire to keep the cold at bay.
Xiao Ran took out two portions of white lotus cake and handed one to him. “Eat.”
He then took one piece of white lotus cake and started eating.
“It slls so good! Brother Xiao, where did you buy it from? I’ll buy so when we get back.” Little Zhou asked.
“Why do you have so many questions?” Xiao Ran glared at him.
Little Zhou stopped talking and wolfed down the food.
Pitter-patter…
It began drizzling outside. It started as a light drizzle but as ti passed, it grew heavier.
The hall, too, had begun to leak in places, and big puddles ford in so parts.
“This damn weather. It was fine just now, but it started raining just like that without warning.” Little Zhou cursed.
Rapid footsteps could be heard outside.
Two young n entered the temple. One wore a red elaborate suit, the other in a white version.
There were no tools in their hands to shield them from the rain, but their clothes were clean and tidy. There was no sign of them getting drenched at all.
Looking at Xiao Ran and Little Zhou, the two of them were caught off guard.
The young man in red was about to do sothing when the young man in white stopped him.
He took a step forward and cupped his fists in greeting at the two of them. “The rain is very heavy. We would like to use this place to wait out the rain for a while. We’ll leave when the rain stops. Please bear with us for the inconvenience.”
“You are welco to co in!” Xiao Ran said.
The two of them walked to one corner and sat down. The young man in red got so firewood and lit a fire.
He took out so food and ate it.
Little Zhou lowered his voice and said, “Brother Xiao, be careful. They’re not ordinary people.”
“Really?”
“It’s raining so heavily out there, but their clothes are so clean. Even their shoes aren’t dirty. I wouldn’t be able to do that.”
“Ignore them,” Xiao Ran said.
After eating the white lotus cake, he closed his eyes to rest.
Little Zhou held the sapphire light sword tightly in his hand. If anything happened, he would take them down imdiately.
All these moves did not escape the eyes of the young man in red. “From their weapons, they’re from the Divine Sword Guards. Do you want to deal with them?”
The young man in white shook his head. “We don’t kill indiscriminately. Our swords only kill those who deserve it.”
“Yes.” The young man in red nodded.
It was raining very hard and showed no signs of stopping.
Late at night,
the temperature in the temple dropped without warning.
In a few short breaths, it dropped to freezing point.
Wisps of cold air seeped in from the outside, forming a layer of frost wherever they passed.
The power of ice chill it contained was very strong.
Just as the freezing air was about to touch Xiao Ran and partner, a flash of golden light blood from Xiao Ran’s body and expelled all the freezing air.
“Soone’s here.” Xiao Ran woke Little Zhou up.
Little Zhou held the sapphire light sword tightly and happened to see the two people opposite him standing up as well.
The surrounding freezing air was easily dispelled by them.
The fourso looked at each other warily, then turned their gaze away to the outside.
“Brother Xiao…” Little Zhou said.
“Don’t speak. Let’s take a look first,” Xiao Ran said.
An even more terrifying chilly air swept in from all directions, inundating the whole area.
With the temple as the center, they surged towards it.
The freezing air spread for thousands of feet, turning everything in its path to ice-covered sculptures.
Their target was the white-robed youth and the other guy. Xiao Ran and Little Zhou were just extras.
“Hmph! It’s these detestable fellows again,” the young man in red gave a scornful snort.
With one step, a towering red light burst skywards. With the expansion of his aura, he charged towards his surroundings.
Pow!
The temple shattered instantly, unable to withstand this huge force.
Even the freezing air that was sweeping towards here was destroyed.
Without the cover of the temple, the other party’s presence was revealed.
Dozens of demons, nearly 10 feet tall with their whole body in sky blue color, stood surrounded by a thick layer of freezing air. Under the leadership of a tall demon, they surrounded the two young n in a nacing manner.
“Ice Giants.” Xiao Ran’s eyes narrowed warily.
