Cao Xing's face was lined with frustration, realizing that this Lieutenant didn't have much faith in their abilities, yet still allowed them to proceed. It seemed like they were being sent to their deaths.
However, the matter was now settled.
Cao Xing smiled and said, "I have a group of powerful followers and partners, of course we succeeded."
Carlhan glanced behind Cao Xing, then nodded and said, "Lord Cao Xing, you are right, you have a group of powerful followers."
"Moreover, with such a courageous presence, I believe you will rise to prominence at a terrifying speed!"
"It won't be long before the entire Western Continent knows your name."
"In the distant future, even we, the Undead buried deep in the Underground Palace, will hear of your name!"
Cao Xing chuckled, this fellow really knew how to flatter.
However, business was business. The agreed-upon reward should still be claimed.
