Chapter 466 - 445: One More Update
"Indeed, Marquis, having defended the Northwest Border for many years, you must know something about those different kinds from beyond the Northern Border. It’s true that in recent years, these beings have been rarely active around Nanzheng’s border, but I’ve heard that not long ago, there was a conflict between border soldiers and those beings." Master Ling Yi told the Marquis of Zhenbei not solely because of his status, but also because he needed to understand the current situation in Ghoul Ravine.
"Are you referring to the people from Ghoul Ravine?" The Marquis of Zhenbei suddenly realized, "I have heard of them many years ago, fortunately, the Crown Prince’s foresight led to the deployment of the Fire Order Squad amongst the border soldiers, employing their hunting spells to protect us from those monsters."
Master Ling Yi nodded, seeing the Marquis’s reaction, he chose not to say more.
"Mage, is there anything I can assist you with?" The Marquis, under the pretext of offering help, casually inquired.
The Marquis believed his dealings to be secret, especially those concerning Ghoul Ravine, without a single slip; his inquiry now was entirely natural. Moreover, given the relationship between the Wen Family and Qiandao Temple, he supposed he should make this visit.
"Thank you, Marquis, for your kind intentions. Qiandao Temple is grateful, but this mission to capture is highly dangerous, and the brothers of our temple should suffice." Master Ling Yi spoke, seemingly having prepared his refusal, leaving no room for the Marquis to interject further.
The Marquis of Zhenbei was taken aback. Without insisting, he politely said a few words, and seeing that Master Ling Yi had no intention of detaining him, he then stood up to take his leave.
"Marquis, have you ever seen a mage cast spells?" As the Marquis stepped out, his trusted aide suddenly spoke up.
The Marquis, already dissatisfied in his heart, stifling a breath of air, had received an answer about capturing the different kinds, clearly not what he was looking for. Seeing his aide speak up, he looked at him with some curiosity.
