"I'm sorry, King Xi, there was a bit of a misunderstanding today. I want to apologize to King Xi!"
Guo Shengdong took a deep breath and bowed slightly.
He had no choice but to bow his head. Ling Hao's combat power had far exceeded his expectations. If he continued to entangle him, he would be asking for trouble.
"Sorry, King Xi, for disturbing me!" Tao Chengfu and Shi Hongbo bowed at the same time.
"Get lost!" Ling Hao didn't intend to argue with the other party.
His goal today has been achieved. Some things cannot be rushed and require some time.
"Farewell!" the three said again and then led the group of people away in frustration.
"Long Zun, you really put us to shame!" After everyone left, Liang Xu looked at Ling Hao and sighed.
"With your current fighting power, the three of us old men can't even take one of your attacks together!"
"Elder Liang was so complimentary, it was just a fluke!" Ling Hao responded with a smile.
"Long Zun, although you have shocked the three major families just now, they should not be so easily subdued. You have to be careful in the future!" Yu Jun said.
"Yes! Thank you, Mr. Yu, for reminding me!" Ling Hao nodded in response.
After the two sides continued to chat for a few words, Liang and Xu said goodbye and left.
"Brother, why did you let people from the three major families go like this?" A few minutes later, Ling Hao and everyone returned to the courtyard, and the judge asked.
Others also looked at Ling Hao, which didn't seem to be his eldest brother's style.
"It's my first time here. There are some things that I haven't figured out yet. We'll talk about everything after we get back from Lingquan." Ling Hao responded thoughtfully.
"Okay!" No one asked any more questions.
"Brother, how to deal with him? Did he behead him?" Qinglong then pointed at the man from Dongyuan Kingdom who was paralyzed on the ground and asked.
"No, don't kill me," the man said quickly and with difficulty.
"As long as you let me live, I will tell you an important message."
"What news?" Qinglong asked.
"This news is related to the four hundred warriors of your Daxia Kingdom who were ambushed last month," the man responded in a trembling voice.
"Huh?!" After hearing this, Ling Hao's pupils shrank slightly.
In his mind, he couldn't help but think of what Emperor Qian had told him a few days ago, asking him to investigate the matter after arriving in the polar snowy areas.
All four hundred warriors were killed, and no one was spared. This is definitely a big event!
"Did you Dongyuan people do that?" Qinglong asked.
Ling Hao had already told his brothers and sisters about this on his way to the polar snowy area, so everyone knew about it.
"No...no" the man shook his head.
"Who did that?" Qinglong asked again.
"If you promise to let me live, I will tell you, otherwise I would rather die than reveal any information." The man continued.
"Speak out and I will send someone to escort you out of the city gate!" Ling Hao responded.
"I can't trust you. Send someone to escort me outside the city gate first, and then I'll tell you." The man said.
"Lu Yue, you and Qinglong take him out!" Ling Hao looked at Lu Yue and told him.
"Okay!" Lu Yue and Lu Yue nodded and carried the man out of the courtyard.
About twenty minutes later, the two returned to the yard again.
"Boss Lu, have you asked?" Bai Hu looked at Lu Yue and asked.
"Yes!" Lu Yue nodded, "According to what he said, the party that took action was a powerful organization called the Ice Palace!"
"Ice Palace? What the hell?" Bai Hu was stunned.
"Ah?" Brother and sister Yuan Haichen on the side said in surprise at the same time, "So they are from the Ice Palace?"
"Xiaojie, have you heard of the Ice Palace? What's the origin?" Qin Yuxin looked at Yuan Yijie and asked.
"Mrs. Long Zun, let me tell you!" Yuan Haichen began to introduce after a brief pause.
"There are a total of forty or fifty non-governmental organizations of various sizes in the polar snowy areas."
"These forces do not belong to any one country. Many members of the organizations come from various countries in the world."
"They steal and plunder natural resources in the polar snows and then sell them to all parts of the world."
"Among these forty or fifty force organizations, three organizations are the strongest, no less powerful than some small and medium-sized countries stationed here."
"And the Ice Palace is one of them. Apart from the Ice Palace, the other two are Fengxue Hall and Extreme Cold Castle!"
"Among them, the Extreme Cold Castle is located in the central region and is the strongest among all the forces. The Ice Palace and Fengxue Hall are mainly distributed in the other four districts."
"Gee! Is there such a sect in the polar snowy regions?" the judge shouted.
"The Guardian Realm doesn't care?" Xuanwu looked at Yuan Haichen and asked.
"On the one hand, because these forces are so cunning, it is difficult to find their real base camp." Yuan Haichen continued.
"On the other hand, the guardian world has changed over the years, and many people have gained a lot of benefits from these powerful organizations." .??.
"Okay!" Xuanwu shrugged his shoulders, "Then do you know the lair of the Ice Palace?"
"I don't know!" Yuan Haichen shook his head and said, "Their lair is very secret, and it is impossible for ordinary people to know it!"
After finishing speaking, he paused briefly and added.
"However, people from the Ice Palace will be active outside from time to time. I can ask someone to make inquiries and they should be able to find them."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you!" Ling Hao said.
"Okay!" Yuan Haichen nodded in response.
"Are you two brothers and sisters included in the quota for going to Lingquan this time?" Ling Hao then asked.
"No!" Yuan Haichen shook his head and responded, "Such a good opportunity usually does not come to ordinary civilians like us."
"What do you mean?" Suzaku frowned slightly, "The quota is not open to selection?"
"The selection was indeed carried out in name." Yuan Yijie responded.
>
"But before the selection, many rigid conditions were set. After one round of screening, very few people can enter the selection."
"Haha, that's interesting!" Qinglong sneered.
"You two get ready and come with us to Lingquan the day after tomorrow." Ling Hao said lightly.
"Ah?" Yuan Haichen was stunned for a moment, then said, "But over there at the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Don't worry, you can go as big brother tells you to. No one has the right to stop you!" Qinglong interrupted him.
"Thank you Long Zun!" The two brothers and sisters looked at each other and bowed deeply to Ling Hao.
On the morning of the third day, forty-two Daxia geniuses set out for Lingquan under the leadership of Liang Xu and others.
Also accompanying him were four old men sent by the City Lord's Mansion, all of whom were in the Late Supreme Realm.
As for the sudden addition of the two Yuan Haichen brothers and sisters, some people did raise objections at first, but when they learned that it was Ling Hao's intention, no one said anything.
After these two days of events, many people have a better understanding of Ling Hao's character, so they will not look for trouble over such a trivial matter.
Liang Xu knew that Ling Hao didn't like too much noise, so he arranged a snow chariot for Ling Hao and his brothers and sisters. Yuan Haichen and his two brothers were also called up by Ling Hao.
Lingquan is more than a thousand kilometers away from the capital city of Daxia, and the snow chariot ride takes about six or seven hours.
Along the way, everyone once again experienced the ultimate snow scenery covered in thousands of miles of polar snow, which was so beautiful.
From time to time, some animals that have never been seen before will run out on the snow. The smallest ones are as big as mice, and the largest ones are nearly three or four meters high.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
About three or four hours later, when two snow chariots passed by a valley, a dull sound reached everyone's eardrums.
At the same time, large and small ice blocks rolled down from the slopes on both sides, and the entire valley floor also trembled faintly.
