Chapter 5426 Raid
"The elder also said that if I cannot complete the task, there is no need for me to stay in the castle."
"But I have a sick father and a young brother at home. If I am driven out of the castle, they will all starve to death."
The girl lowered her head and her body trembled constantly, tears gradually filling her eyes.
Seeing this, Zhang Yifeng was silent for a while, then he sighed, opened the door, and motioned the girl to enter the room.
"Thank you very much, sir!"
The girl felt the movement in front of her and immediately looked up.
Seeing the door open, she immediately wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and rushed into the room excitedly.
Zhang Yifeng shook his head and closed the door.
"Although I let you in, you don't need to do anything else. Just stay here quietly and I won't bother you."
Zhang Yifeng said this in a calm voice, then sat back on the ground and began to set up the formation.
Upon hearing that, the girl stood aside with an awkward look on her face, carefully observing Zhang Yifeng's movements.
After a while, the girl gradually let go of the panic and fear in her heart.
She stared at Zhang Yifeng carefully for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Sir, are you also from the Empire?"
"No."
Zhang Yifeng responded casually, concentrating on outlining the formation.
"I see, that's great!"
When the girl heard this, excitement immediately appeared on her face and she spoke happily.
Zhang Yifeng paused when he heard the voice and turned around to look at the girl.
"What deep hatred do you have with the Imperials that makes you hate each other so much?"
Zhang Yifeng asked with a puzzled look on his face. Now there happened to be a civilian from the Han clan nearby, so Zhang Yifeng could ask her about his doubts.
"I'm not sure about this, but when my mother was still alive, she told us that the imperial people were all bad guys."
"They have green faces, fangs, and are bloodthirsty. They will even kidnap children from the Snow Country to eat!"
"But looking at those imperial people today, they seem to be no different from us."
The girl scratched her forehead, looking as if she was thinking hard.
When Zhang Yifeng heard these words, he couldn't help but think of Lu Shang's previous look, which seemed to think that the Snow Tribe people were a group of monsters.
It seems that the image of the Tianyu Empire and the Snow Country demonizing each other has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the country.
From this perspective, there is still a long way to go before the Snow Clan can accept the Ji family members from the empire.
Unless there is a major event that can change the Snow Clan’s prejudice against the Imperials.
Otherwise, even if Zhang Yifeng could help Wan Renxue ascend to the position of King of the Snow Country, his envisioned scene of accommodating all races would be difficult to implement among the Snow Clan.
"So what do you think of the Imperials now? Are they still as evil as you thought?"
Zhang Yifeng narrowed his eyes and asked the girl in a deep voice.
The girl looked distressed when she heard this, and after thinking deeply for a while, she shook her head.
"No, now I think they are the same as us Snow Tribe people, just with different accents and clothes."
"Besides, the sisters I met before were very nice and gave me candy."
The girl laughed as she spoke. At such an innocent age, a few candies could often make her happy for the whole day.
"Um……"
Zhang Yifeng nodded slightly. It seemed that the demonized image of the imperial people had not yet taken root in the hearts of these young people.
Otherwise, if even the young man's mind is filled with hostility towards the empire, Wan Renxue's future work will be really difficult to carry out.
"You stay in this room today, and don't step out of the door."
Zhang Yifeng completed the last stroke in his hand, and in an instant a golden light disappeared into the ground.
At the same time, a golden light flashed in front of the doors of other rooms in the corridor where the Ji family members lived.
"Okay, okay sir."
The girl nodded as if she understood, then stood aside obediently.
"Sit on the bed and have a good rest. I have some things to take care of."
"Before I come back, remember not to leave rashly."
Zhang Yifeng stood up and walked towards the door, giving instructions in a calm voice.
The girl nodded cautiously, then turned her head to look at the big bed in the next room.
It was not until Zhang Yifeng pushed the door open that the girl showed hesitation.
Finally, he slowly walked towards the big bed, first carefully touched the clean and soft edge of the bed, and then he slowly and tremblingly lay down to put on his clothes.
Suddenly, a warm feeling came over her heart, and the girl fell asleep while lying on the bed.
On the other side, Zhang Yifeng had just pushed the door open when he felt a chill gradually enveloping the entire corridor.
The fog that made it impossible to see the surroundings rose up from all directions and gradually enveloped the entire corridor.
"Are you finally here? I'm getting a little impatient waiting."
Zhang Yifeng chuckled, raised his hand and summoned into the air, and a long sword fell into his palm.
At the same time, a heavy sound of footsteps suddenly came from the front.
Zhang Yifeng could feel an evil aura coming towards him.
"Ok?"
This breath inexplicably carried a familiar feeling, which made Zhang Yifeng frown.
Just as he was secretly wondering, a roar came from the cold fog.
Immediately, a huge black shadow rushed towards him through the fog, and its sharp claws tried to tear Zhang Yifeng's chest.
"Oh? I didn't expect to see something like this in the Snow Country?"
Zhang Yifeng raised his eyebrows and saw the true appearance of the attacking monster from a close distance. A look of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.
But at this time the monster was already approaching, Zhang Yifeng took decisive action, and the sword flashed in the air.
Instantly, dark and smelly blood gushed out, and the monster's huge head fell at Zhang Yifeng's feet.
The monsters that emerged from the cold fog were actually the terrifying black demons that roamed in the starry sky and chose their prey.
But according to Ji Shan's explanation, these black demons should only appear in the starry sky, specifically attacking passing merchants and travelers.
At this time, these monsters appeared in the castle of the Snow Country, which made Zhang Yifeng feel frightened no matter what.
Moreover, these monsters seem to be immune to the Snow Clan’s inherent coldness and can move freely in this cold fog.
"Could it be that Elder Bai Mu has already mastered the method of controlling these black demons?"
"Even transforming them into monsters that are not affected by the Snow Clan's cold fog?"
Zhang Yifeng thought secretly in his heart, holding the sword and looking vigilantly at the black fog in front of him.
Even though he had killed a black demon, Zhang Yifeng could feel that there were more evil auras hidden in the thick cold fog.
Sure enough, the next moment countless roars sounded one after another in the cold fog.
Through the thick fog in front of him, Zhang Yifeng could even see countless pairs of scarlet beast pupils, staring at him.
