Several miles had passed since the Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe had left the ancient city, when suddenly a few vines from beneath penetrated into the carriage and pulled two individuals inside.
These two individuals were Xie Xiaofeng and a young girl named Han Shuang.
Having just escaped the ancient city, and due to several terrifying ancient beasts nearby, Xie Xiaofeng and Han Shuang did not stray far. Instead, they waited nearby, according to the plan they had agreed upon with the Snow Mountain Tribe's Clan Leader in the temple.
The snow wolves pulling the carriage carried a kind of blood that could burn with rage, and thus, no beasts dared to approach.
Glancing back at the ancient city, the Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "The Second Generation Nether King has already sent people to pursue you, but luckily I left the city quickly."
"Didn't he suspect you?" Xie Xiaofeng asked.
"Being as suspicious as he is, he surely suspected me," the Clan Leader replied, "but for him, nothing is more important than those towers in the ancient city. So, as soon as I mentioned that I needed to return to the tribe to find another young girl, he let me leave the city."
"Not good!" Xie Xiaofeng suddenly exclaimed in shock. "I remember the Glacier Heart allows him to see far and through everything. Could he have let you leave on purpose?"
The Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe shook his head, smiling slightly, "Don't worry! No one understands the Glacier Heart better than I do. Of course, I know he might be watching me, but I have ways to make him see nothing."
"Can you freeze the Glacier Heart?"
The Clan Leader shook his head and replied, "I can't freeze it, but I can weaken it for a short time. Hence, he currently cannot see anything inside our carriage."
"Clan Leader!" Han Shuang finally spoke, "What exactly happened to Tu Yi?"
Caught in a rush earlier, the Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe had no time to explain much and had urged Xie Xiaofeng to take Han Shuang away quickly.
Then, the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe explained the recent task he had sent Tu Yi on—to kill Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Bodies.
Hearing this, both Xie Xiaofeng and Han Shuang looked worried. Xie Xiaofeng was concerned about Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Bodies, while Han Shuang naturally worried about Tu Yi.
Looking at them, the Snow Mountain Tribe's Clan Leader said anxiously, "So I'm entrusting this to you, you must get there before they engage in battle again."
Two hours later, the Snow Mountain Tribe's Clan Leader returned with Xie Xiaofeng and Han Shuang to the tribe of the Snow Mountain people.
Non-stop, the three first went to the tribe's temple and took a transparent stone glowing with a faint blue light; then, they headed to a cave at the back of the mountain.
"Wait here at the entrance of this cave for me," the Clan Leader said, looking back, then he walked alone into the cave.
Shortly after, the Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe emerged, followed by a massive snow wolf.
"Nu Nu!" Han Shuang shouted excitedly, recognizing the wolf.
It was the wolf that had always accompanied Tu Yi.
"Ooow!" The snow wolf, called Nu Nu by Han Shuang, let out a howl, appearing very excited too.
"Let this wolf lead you to Tu Yi," the Clan Leader of the Snow Mountain Tribe told Xie Xiaofeng. "This wolf is fast and recognizes Tu Yi's scent."
Xie Xiaofeng nodded, feeling somewhat intimidated by the size of the wolf, thinking to himself that he was hardly enough even as an appetizer for it.
"Clan Leader, then let's depart right now," Han Shuang urged anxiously.
The Snow Mountain Tribe's Clan Leader nodded and handed the blue-glowing stone to Han Shuang, saying, "This stone will protect you when you face danger; you should know how to use it."
Han Shuang nodded, looking up at the snow wolf and said, "Clan Leader, don't worry, we also have Nu Nu to protect us."
"Please, Han Shuang," the Clan Leader's expression turned very grim, "if you find Tu Yi, then flee far away with him to wherever you wish to go, and be together forever. This old man sincerely blesses you."
"Elder!" Han Shuang's eyes suddenly reddened, "Is that true? Can Tu Yi and I be together from now on?"
The elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe nodded, his expression growing even more bitter.
"Of course, if you wish to return to the tribe, that would be ideal. I hope in your hearts, this place can still be your home."
Han Shuang didn't speak further; her heart still harbored hatred. Initially, due to the lack of a suitable candidate within the tribe, the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe had chosen her as a maiden girl, forcibly separating her and Tu Yi.
Later, when she and Tu Yi planned to elope and leave the tribe, the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe captured Tu Yi with the help of the tribe's people and threatened her with Tu Yi's life, forcing her to go to the Ancient City.
Even after tens of thousands of years, her hatred for the tribe and the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe had only grown.
After jumping onto Nunu's back, Xie Xiaofeng also transformed into a mist and floated up, sitting next to her.
"Nunu, let's hurry and find Tu Yi!"
"Wait!" the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe suddenly said.
Han Shuang looked down at him.
"Han Shuang, I almost forgot to tell you something. Yesterday morning, Tu Yi did come to the Ancient City, and he saw you!" said the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe.
Han Shuang froze, and when she came to, her face was streaked with tears.
"Then why didn't you tell me at the time!"
"I just," the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe was at a loss for words.
His intention at the time was to use Han Shuang to stimulate Tu Yi's fighting spirit.
"Despicable!" After cursing, Han Shuang commanded Nunu to leave.
In the blink of an eye, Nunu had disappeared with the two of them into the vast white snowy landscape ahead.
Looking at Nunu's retreating figure, the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe cast witchcraft, aiming to prevent the Second Generation Nether King from locating the two through Nether Vision.
After casting the witchcraft, the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe suddenly fell to his knees and let out a hoarse, aged scream toward the sky, "I am despicable! Glacier King, the god I most revere, please grant happiness to those two miserable children!"
Now, he had placed all his hopes on Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body, who were about to reach the Ancient City.
...
...
Meanwhile, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body had finally located the source of the beast's Spiritual Power.
Before they even got close to the source, the two saw thick ice and several well-preserved human corpses.
"These people must have been swallowed by this beast like us, then thought of the same foolish method to destroy the beast's Spiritual Power source to escape," said Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body on Chen Hao's back.
"How is this method foolish?"
"If it weren't foolish, why would they all have died here," said Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body, "This is clearly an act of overestimating one's abilities against impossible odds."
"Well, I'm different from them, right?" said Chen Hao.
"Of course!" Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body smiled, "My Chen Hao is definitely different from these tribe's primitive people. You'll surely destroy this source and get me out of here!"
