Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang arrived near Icy Bastion.

Just 20 years ago, he had been the Town Lord of Icy Bastion, but that was obviously no longer the case.

The town had never truly belonged to Shang. He had simply been a form of administrator or manager for the town.

For now, an Initial Ancestral Mage was acting as the Town Lord. Thanks to the Abyss Worms, the Town Lord didn't need to be super powerful.

At the moment, over 8,000 people were gathered near the main exit of Icy Bastion.

They were all anxiously waiting for someone.

From what Shang could see, there were about 50 Impose Stage warriors and about 600 True Path Stage warriors. The remaining people were the friends and family of these warriors.

Shang recognized a couple of people that had joined the Temple of Blood already, but based on what they were talking about, their SKP had already been deleted.

This meant that none of them remembered for whom they had been working.

Most of them were confused, but they were also quite happy with the outcome.

They didn't know where it came from, but all of them had earned a ton of money.

At the moment, Shang was just looking at them from around 100 kilometers away.

The Sweeper had left shortly before they entered the range of Icy Bastion's Magic Circles. On the surface, this town belonged to the current Town Lord, and as a Sweeper from the Temple of Blood, the Sweeper couldn't possibly show herself near the town.

When she had stopped before the range of the Magic Circles, Shang had just continued.

He didn't face her.

He didn't say anything.

He just continued flying like she hadn't been there at all.

The Sweeper closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Shang's cold actions hurt her a bit, but she was not some emotional teen.
