Cao Xing chuckled as he listened.
He had to admit, Edward was indeed his lucky star!
Initially, when Cao Xing had the sudden notion to bring this down-and-out painter back to his territory, it was due to his advanced painting mastery.
What he hadn't anticipated was that Edward would also bring a powerful demon to the territory.
This demon then dropped two epic-level items for Cao Xing, significantly boosting both his and Renice's strength!
The assistance could be considered immense!
Of course, only Cao Xing had the power to deal with the demon.
If it had been any other survivors or factions, they wouldn't have been able to handle that creature even if it appeared—they might have been completely wiped out by it.
Thinking about this made Cao Xing feel even better.
"Great, I have a task for you now."
Edward immediately straightened up, then respectfully said, "Lord, please tell me, I will do my utmost to complete it!"
