Shang had already expected something like this.

This was essentially the best-case scenario for him.

Lucin could have just killed him.

Lucin could have also just said that they would support him, but that would be worse than him asking his superior.

How was it worse?

Because the actual rise of a Warrior King would definitely need the approval of at least several Mage Kings, if not one of the Mage Emperors.

Lucin would have obviously known that.

So, the only reason why he wouldn't have asked his superior would be that he was certain that Shang would never become so powerful.

Which would be a bad thing for Shang.

Luckily, he decided to ask his superior.

This meant that Shang's chances were genuine.

The two of them continued traveling for nearly an hour, which was quite surprising to Shang.

By now, they had probably traveled across over half of the Lightning Manor's territories.

They had probably traveled for over four million kilometers in total, which was insane.

The further north they got, the colder everything became.

The general climate had always been the same to Shang, just temperate, but that wasn't because all of Aterium was like that.

It was just that Shang had barely moved enough to notice a change in the climate. He had always stayed in the southern parts of the northern third of the world.

Now, they were entering the northern parts of the northern third of the world.

The short instances Shang managed to glimpse at his surroundings showed him a completely different world from what he was used to.

Everything was extremely cold. There was ice and snow wherever he looked, and the number of Ice Affinity beasts also shot up.

However, that was only on the ground.

The sky had darkened considerably, and it only became darker the further north they traveled.

The sky was completely covered by black clouds, which were constantly crackling with explosions of lightning.
