บรรณาธิการ: Henyee Translations
The Boundless Icefield.
Feather God Kingdom.
Cao Xing was originally a street gangster at the bottom of society. He idled around every day and had nothing to do.
His favorite thing to do was to play games!
His parents were just laid-off workers with a meager salary. Their health was not very good, and they suffered from illnesses every couple of days.
However, Cao Xing spent 24 hours a day in the internet cafe and would easily invest a few thousand yuan into his account.
He had snatched all this money from his parents!
Every time he went home to ask for money, it was fine if the old couple gave it to him. If they did not give him enough, this bastard son would either smash things or curse.
The old couple had long given up on this disappointing son.
But in the end, this was their flesh and blood!
They couldn't bear to call the police. Instead, they indulged him again and again, hoping that this prodigal son would one day turn over a new leaf.
However, they did not know that not only did Cao Xing not repent at all, but he also often called his parents old farts in front of his so-called "friends."
He hated his parents for not being rich. That way, he could eat, drink, and have fun every day. He could spend as much money as he wanted.
He had never thought of earning money by himself.
"They owe me all this!"
This was what Cao Xing always said.
He often fantasized that if he could choose his parents, he would definitely be the most noble prince!
…
Sometimes, fate was so ridiculous.
Karma was only the naive wish of children.
Cao Xing had succeeded. Not only had he transmigrated to the game world that he was obsessed with, but he had also become the crown prince of Feather God Kingdom.
He felt that the Goddess of Fate was watching over him.
He was destined to be the protagonist of this game.
His rich gaming experience allowed him to quickly get used to it. As the Crown Prince, he knew how to borrow the power of the kingdom.
Angels were different from demons. They did not have special buildings like Demon Crystals.
Because they were emissaries sent by the gods to the human world, their growth in strength was all thanks to the blessings of the gods.
Every time angels killed demons, the gods would bless them with divine power to increase their strength.
Of course, since demons could cultivate by absorbing demonic energy, angels could naturally absorb natural divine power to improve themselves.
As soon as the protection period ended, he had his father, the king of the Feather God Kingdom, send him a troop of elite units.
With this powerful team, Cao Xing wiped out the surrounding demons. His strength had also risen from the second wing when he first descended to the current fourth wing!
Four-Winged Angel!
Peak Level 2!
In just a few months, such strength made him arrogant.
At the same time, it constantly stimulated his ambition.
He was no longer satisfied with being a prince who was controlled. He wanted to become the king of the Feather God Kingdom.
Even the king of the Boundless Icefield!
The king of the Continent of Gods and Evils!
This was the only way to make him worthy of the Goddess of Fate's favor!
Thus, he even publicized his identity as an angel, thinking that he could expand his influence in the Feather God Kingdom.
Of course, the king was well aware of this, but he was old after all. Sooner or later, this country would be handed over to Cao Xing.
Moreover, Cao Xing's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds in just a few months. No one in the entire Feather God Kingdom was his match.
Perhaps he could bring even greater glory to the Feather God Kingdom in the near future.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the old king decided to turn a blind eye.
In the palace of the Feather God Kingdom, Cao Xing was making out with a few beautiful maids.
He had painstakingly selected these women from the entire country.
A knock on the door interrupted his interest.
"Who's there!"
The knocking on the door suddenly stopped. The person outside was obviously shocked.
Cao Xing pushed the woman on him away impatiently, put on a loose robe, and walked out of the room.
He glared at the trembling guard who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.
"How dare you disturb my mood!"
"Crown Prince, I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! It was you who said that we must inform you as soon as there is news of the demon."
His voice was sobbing. The guard was clearly frightened and kowtowed desperately to Cao Xing to beg for mercy.
"Speak!"
Cao Xing temporarily suppressed his anger when he heard that it was about the demon.
He led the guard to another room.
How could the pleasure of improving his strength be compared to this? Every time he thought of the feeling of gaining one wing, Cao Xing's mouth would dry up.
"Crown Prince, recently, there have been rumors among the citizens that there are many Oak people near the snow mountain valley."
The guard was glad that he had survived. He followed behind Cao Xing and spoke.
"I felt that there was something fishy about this matter, so I sent someone to capture a lone Oak villager and bring him back."
"I didn't expect him to be so stubborn. Even when he's about to die, he's still talking about his master, claiming that the great Crimson Overlord will definitely avenge him."
The reason why the guard said so much was because he wanted to take credit.
"But we didn't kill it, in case we might alert the enemy."
"Well done."
As the two of them spoke, they walked into a room next door.
In the palace, in order to prevent others from eavesdropping, the soundproofing of every room was very good.
"Therefore, I'm guessing that the Oak village must have been enslaved by that demon."
"And that demon must be hiding in the snow valley."
With that, the guard raised his head and looked at Cao Xing with a flattering expression, waiting for the Crown Prince's reward.
He was secretly delighted in his heart. The guards who had discovered the demons earlier had all obtained quite a lot of rewards. He would definitely not be an exception this time.
"You did well in this matter!"
"So, as the Crown Prince, I want to reward you."
Cao Xing paused for a moment, and an evil smile appeared on his face.
Suddenly!
He reached out and grabbed the guard's neck, lifting him into the air.
The guard's limbs flailed weakly, and his face turned purple.
"I'll reward you with death!"
"Who asked you to disturb my mood!"
"Be careful in your next life!"
With that, Cao Xing exerted strength in his hand and crushed the guard's neck.
His limbs drooped weakly, and his head was tilted to the side. He was deader than dead.
Leaving the cold corpse behind, Cao Xing walked out of the room and casually said to the servant guarding the door, "Go in and get rid of it. Be clean and don't let anyone see through you."
After saying that, Cao Xing did not continue the "game".
No man would be interested in that after something like this.
After changing into a set of clean clothes, Cao Xing tidied up his appearance, put on his hypocritical smile, and headed to the old king's palace.
…
"Father, this is what happened. Please allow me to lead the troops to eliminate the demon."
When the old king heard about this, he changed his usual expression and did not immediately agree to Cao Xing's request. Instead, he pondered.
"No."
After some thought, the old king gave his answer.
Cao Xing looked up at his father in surprise.
"This matter involves the Oak Clan. We can't send troops easily. We have to investigate clearly."
"Why?"
Cao Xing was even more confused.
"The Oak Clan is a friend of our Feather God Kingdom. Their prophet was once a close friend of our ancestors."
"The Feather God Kingdom has cherished this relationship since ancient times. If we can't be 100% sure that the Oak Clan has been enslaved by demons, we can't send troops to attack our friends!"
"Yes, sir!"
Cao Xing lowered his head, looking very respectful.
However, Cao Xing gritted his teeth from an angle that the old king could not see. His eyes were filled with anger.
This was exactly why he looked down on this old thing.
Kindness and mercy!
In his understanding, these things were the greatest weakness of a king.
Since you're unwilling, don't blame me!
