The Almighty Dragon General

None of them were too surprised that the man before them was the Ice Spirit.
After all, Latrusse had already suggested the possibility before.
Latrusse turned to Qiyana and asked curiously, “There are countless myths about the Glacies’ Ice Spirit.
Could you enlighten us about it?” Qiyana fell into thought.
After a while, she took a deep breath and said, “There are indeed many stories about the Ice Spirit.
Most of them are false rumors, but some are real.” The three men’s curiosity was immediately piqued.
Qiyana looked at them and said, “His real name is Qairo Burrein.
He was a super genius of our race.
We've been secretly training him and never allowed him to make any public appearances.
He didn’t let us down and kept improving steadily.
He entered the Holy Celestial Rank and ultimately reached the Quasi Bliss Rank.” She paused for a while, then said, “While
trying to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank, something unexpected happened.
We integrated our race’s precious treasure, the Ice Spirit, into his body.
We managed to save him, but he seemed to have no consciousness of his own and became like a walking corpse.” Qiyana
shared the Glacies’ past event.
The group immediately realized the man before them was not called the Ice Spirit.
His name was Qairo Burrein, and the Ice Spirit was within him.
They were surprised he had reached such a high cultivation rank.
He was at the Quasi Bliss Rank but encountered an accident when he tried to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank.
Even though he failed, the Quasi Bliss Rank was already a terrifying achievement even in the Dark World.
Qiyana looked at the three men and said, “I can give you the Illus and Ice Sword.

However, I can’t hand over the Ice Spirit.
Without it, Qairo will die instantly.” James said, “I just want the Illus.” Latrusse quickly joined in, saying, “I'll take the Ice Sword.”
Lemuel frowned and said, “Logically speaking, you can go anywhere in the Dark World since you have Qairo protecting you.
Why insist on going to the Glaciem Holy Land?” Before Qiyana could reply, Latrusse interrupted and explained, “ The Glacies’
territory was destroyed.
However, their core region didn't go down.
Unfortunately, the Four Ancient Races have powerhouses guarding that area, so we'll have to go against them.
It’s a very troublesome task.” James said nonchalantly, “I’ve nothing to worry about since I’m too weak.
It’ll be up to you two to protect her.” “Will that be alright with you two?” Qiyana looked at Latrusse and Lemuel.
She could sense they were at the Holy Celestial Rank’s early and middle stages.
With them and Qairo, she should be able to enter the Glaciem Holy Land.
Latrusse replied, “Fine by me, as long as I get the Ice Sword.
Although I’m the Taeyton Race’s Leader, I can change my appearance and aura.” Qiyana turned to Lemuel, waiting for his
response.
Lemuel looked at James and said, “I'll help you get the Illus.
However, you’ll have to hand me the remaining Genesis Paths.” “Deal,” James replied with a smile.
“Thank you,” Qiyana said gratefully.
Latrusse looked at her and asked, “What’s worth the risk of entering the Glaciem Holy Land?” Qiyana answered, “I have an
exceptional physique, and there's something there that can help me awaken it.
I must go there to awaken and understand my physique.
As long as I can activate it, I can enter the Holy Celestial Rank.” James looked at Qiyana thoughtfully.

The Glacies had a feud with the Four Ancient Races.
Meanwhile, he had some beef with the Yefteros.
Thus, James began contemplating whether to join forces with Qiyana.
‘An enemy of an enemy is an ally.’ James quickly put away his thoughts.
Even if he joined forces, it was not the right time yet.
