With that, Huston looked towards the court officials gathered in the grand hall and spoke, “Gentlemen, who is
willing to journey to the Ice Mountains on my behalf, to offer worship to the Ice God and resolve the calamity of
the snow disaster for the Golden Tower Empire?
“Whoever is willing to go, upon your return, | will promote you and reward you handsomely.”

Huston was extremely irritated.

His gaze involuntarily turned to Yacouba, the aged yet valiant General with silver whiskers and a face etched
with the experiences of life.
This general of the Golden Tower Empire was his last hope.
Seeing Huston'’s look. General Yacouba didn’t wait for Huston to speak.
With his tall and dignified presence, he stepped forward from the ranks of the military officers.
With a formal bow, General Yacouba addressed Huston seated on the dragon throne, “Mr. Franko | am willing to
go to the Ice Mountains on your behalf to offer worship to the Ice God.
Emotions welled up inside Huston.
General Yacouba was truly a pillar of the Golden Tower Empire,
In every upheaval and crisis faced by the Golden Tower Empire, he had been there.
And this time, it was such a difficult task to go to the Ice Mountains to worship the Ice God.
It was only when no one d
dared to accept it that Yacouba accepted it.
Huston felt a heavy sense of gratitude, seeing a pillar of the state shouldering his worries.
But alongside his gratitude, there was a pang of reluctance.
General Yarouba had served the nation and its people with utmost loyalty, pouring out his heart and soul.
Now advanced in years, he was still ready to face hardship for the sake of the country.
This troubled Huston.
It took a moment before Huston could speak, “General Yacouba you are of considerable age. The journey to the
Ice Mountains is thousands of miles of trekking through mountains and waters, a journey fraught with hardship.

Huston pondered for a moment before looking at the imperial preceptor, “Imperial preceptor, you are the one
with supernatural skills. | now command you to lead a thousand imperial knights to the Ice Mountains to conduct
the sacrifice to
the Ice God”
Since learning about the imperial preceptor’s treachery, Huston had been looking for an opportunity to remove
him.
Keeping such a devious man like the imperial preceptor close was a recipe for endless trouble.
And if he could send the imperial preceptor to the Ice Mountains, to possibly meet his end in that frozen
wilderness, nothing could be better.
However, the imperial preceptor said back to Huston, “Mr. Franko, | cannot leave Fensville,
“With such a catastrophe upon the Golden Tower Empire, | must remain in Fensville and conduct prayers for one
month. Only then will the Ice God cease to bring disaster upon the Golden Tower Empire.”
Huston seethed inwardly.
In his eyes, the imperial preceptor’s insistence on staying in Fensville to pray was clearly an excuse to avoid
going to the Ice Mountains,
This made Huston’s plan to eliminate the imperial preceptor unattainable.

General Yacouba replied with a booming voice, “Mr. Franko, although | am of advanced years, my dedication to

A glimmer of tears could be seen in Huston’s eyes as he spoke, “Mr. Perris, you are indeed the backbone of the

General Vacouba immediately knelt down and said, “Mr. Franko flatters me. | am your subject, and | will serve
the Golden Tower Empire to the utmost until my dying breath. This is my duty”
The courtiers in the grand hall were also full of praise. “General Yacouba is truly the pillar of our nation.”
The Golden Tower Empire is indeed fortunate to have Mr. Perris!”
“General Yacouba is the shield of our empire, safeguarding the Golden Tower Empire.
Huston, hearing these sycophantic praises from his courtiers, felt his anger boiling within.
He wished he could strip these flatterers of their titles and have them all beheaded.
But he knew, as much as he despised these courtiers’ ways, he couldn't just have them executed.
Doing so would make him no different from a tyrant.
Mr. Franko, the General Yacouba is an important general of the country. He is famous all over the world and has a
wide range of abilities. It is just right for him to worship the Ice God At this time, Imperial Preceptor Levi praised.

His words were clearly a dig at Levi and the silent ministers.

However, they all had thick skins and quickly regained their composure, despite Huston’s mockery.
Compared to going to the Ice Mountains to worship the Ice God what's there to feel uncomfortable about being

The Imperial Preceptor said, “Mr. Franko, the snow disaster of the Golden Tower Empire is so terrible and serious.

“To truly show our sincerity to the Ice God, | believe we should send a member of the royal family to accompany
General Yacouba to offer tributes to the lee God.”
Huston frowned. “Imperial Preceptor, why must a member of the royal family personally go?”
Levi said. “Mr. Franko, the Ice God is a deity of the Sunsbury, To stop the snow disaster, merely sending General
Yacouba to offer tributes might not suffice.
“But if a royal family member were to accompany him, it would surely move the Ice God and put an end to the
snow disaster plaguing the Golden Tower Empire,
A glint flashed in Huston'’s eyes,
To him, Levi's words seemed like utter nonsense.
Initially, the imperial preceptor had claimed that sending a supernatural skill individual to offer tributes to the Ice
God would suffice.
Now he also said that he needed the company of the royal family members to move the Ice God so that the
disaster would no longer harm the Golden Tower Empire,
Huston was starting to regret asking Levi about the root cause of the snow disaster.
And now, with all the courtiers present, Levi had put forth this proposition.
He didn’t know how to refute.
After all, Levi, the imperial preceptor, held sway over astrology geomancy, and divination, and Huston himself
had sought
his counsel.
Therefore, all the officials firmly believed what Imperial Preceptor said.
At this juncture, even if Huston wanted to overturn Levi's words, it was a battle he could not win.
So, with a tone of detached agreement, Huston said, “Very well, shall select a member from the royal family for
this purpose. Court is dismissed”
With that, Huston rose from his throne and declared the court adjourned.
The reason why he was in such a hurry to leave was that he was afraid of the Imperial Preceptor. Later, he would
say that he needed to send someone to worship the Ice God together so that the Golden Tower Empire would not
suffer from a snow disaster.
Before leaving, Huston cast a glance at Yacouba and said, “Mr. Perris, after the court, joinin the inner palace.

Huston sat sipping his coffee, his demeanor serene.
Yacouba stood by respectfully, his silence an embodiment of hidisciplined nature.

“Mr. Franko, rest assured, we will fulfill our mission and return safely.” Yacouba said.
Huston nodded and then said aloud. The imperial preceptor mentioned that a member of the royal family should.
accompany you. Who do you think we should send?”
The question was a thorn in Huston’s side.
Apart from the Huston’s wife, the only other royal member was Princess Amy.
As for Huston'’s brothers and sisters, these generals and princesses were all hiding. It was impossible for them to
worship the Ice God on behalf of Huston.
They were very afraid of death.
Huston couldn't bear to force them to go there.
They didn’t care about the royal family, but the Huston did.
Yacouba, hearing Huston’s query, furrowed his brow.
He too quickly realized that Huston’s siblings were unlikely to share the burden.
Because he knew that Huston’s brothers and sisters were all afraid of death, but liked to seek pleasure and
indulge in luxury.
They would scramble for a bar of gold.
But asking them to face the Ice God was out of the question.
Therefore, if he really wanted to send a member of the royal family to follow him to pay respects to the Ice God,
the only member of the royal family was Princess Amy.
But Yacouba balked at the idea of putting the princess in harm's way.
He was momentarily at a loss.
Just then, a firm voice rose. “Father, letaccompany Mr. Perris to the Ice Mountains to pay tribute to the Ice
God.”
Huston and General Yacouba looked over and saw Princess Amywalking in.
“Amy, you're my only daughter, | won't allow you to go.” Huston objected almost immediately.
But Amy didn’t hesitate, saying, “Father, letgo with General Yacouba.
“If he can shoulder such responsibility for the country and its people at his age, how can |, as a princess, not do
the same?”
“Amy, don’t let bravado dictate your actions. I'll send your uncle instead, the Huston stated with a finality that
brooked no argument.
Yet Amy just pouted and replied, “Forget it. My uncles, all they do is hide whenever there's trouble.
“They claim to be sick and unable to move whenever you assignem tasks.
“As the nation faces peril. | cannot hide.
Hearing Amy’s words, both Huston and General Yacouba were deeply moved.
Huston looked at his daughter with a heavy heart and said, “Amalthough what you're doing is honorable.

“But you're my only daughter. And you're the future ruler of the Golden Tower Empire. You absolutely must not

However, Amy looked at her father and said, “Then, Father, if | can cback safe and sound, does that mean |

Huston was speechless.
For a moment, he was at a loss for words due to his Amy's question.
Of course, he didn’t want Amy to go to worship.
But if Amy could enter the fray and cback safe and sound.
Perhaps it wasn’t entirely out of the question.
Thus, Huston could only nod in agreement.
A delighted Amy then asked. “So, Father, when do Mr. Perris and | depart for the Ice Mountains?”
Tomorrow morning, you shall set out, Huston said.
Yes, Father Then | shall take my leave now,” Amy said as she prepared to
leave.
Huston waved his hand and said. “Well, go ahead!”
“Mr. Franko, | will also take my leave, General Yacouba said.
