"If you hadn't come tonight, I was ready to lead the villagers to spend the night in the mine caves of the Borialis Mountains..." the village chief said excitedly.
"Is it that serious?" Cao Xing was stunned.
Mordo Village Chief nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Cao Xing..."
"You have no idea... those Snow Demons are too ferocious. We haven't had a good night's sleep in several nights, and these days we can neither eat nor drink."
"I had no other choice but to send the militia out to find you."
"We even made plans to abandon the village..."
Cao Xing smiled and said, "There's no need to worry, Village Chief. We're here now, aren't we?"
This village chief seemed quite agreeable; he hadn't said much when Cao Xing took Old Mel and his cattle away earlier.
Upon hearing this, Mordo Village Chief beamed with joy.
"You're right, Lord Cao Xing is here. We're finally saved!"
