Three days later.

Since Xie Xiaofeng had been away from the ancient city for a full seven days without finding anyone or discovering his body, the Second Generation Nether King found it odd and wondered if Xie Xiaofeng had been devoured by the giant beasts outside the city.

Once again, he came to the temple beneath the ice-sculpture building to meet with the elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe.

"Have your assassins returned?" the Second Generation Nether King asked the Snow Mountain Tribe elder.

The Clan Leader opened his eyes, sneering, "You want to know whether those two are dead, don't you? Can't you sense the other half of the Nether King's Heart?"

The Second Generation Nether King was visibly displeased, "So that means the person hasn't returned! It's been seven days now; it seems quite likely that he has died at their hands."

"You should directly sense the other half of the Nether King's Heart," the Snow Mountain Tribe elder emphasized. He too was curious if Han Shuang and Xie Xiaofeng managed to stop Tu Yi before the confrontation between Tu Yi and Chen Hao's and Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Bodies.

With a snort, the Second Generation Nether King closed his eyes, awakening the half of the Nether King's Heart within him, and then reached out to sense the other half of the Nether King's Heart within Chen Hao.

The reason he had been reluctant to do so before was his fear that Chen Hao could also see everything on his side by the same means. Therefore, he had always kept the Nether King's Heart within him dormant.

After a short while, the Second Generation Nether King's mind began to project the scenes that Chen Hao was seeing.

He saw Chen Hao riding atop a small white beast, moving at a very swift pace. Besides that, he also saw Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body, lying to Chen Hao's left.

"Ah!" the Second Generation Nether King exclaimed in amazement. He had not expected to see Xie Xiaofeng. Xie Xiaofeng was lying to Chen Hao's right, looking completely at ease.

"How can Xie Xiaofeng be there!" the Second Generation Nether King exclaimed in disbelief.

Hearing him say this, a glint of light passed fleetingly through the eyes of the Snow Mountain Tribe elder nearby. He thought to himself, since Xie Xiaofeng had already encountered Chen Hao and his party, could it mean that Xie Xiaofeng and Han Shuang had successfully prevented the confrontation between Tu Yi and Chen Hao?

"Did you see anyone else?" the Snow Mountain Tribe elder hurriedly inquired.

The Second Generation Nether King's eyes flew wide open with every pore on his face expanding. He glared at the Snow Mountain Tribe elder, only then realizing that it was the elder who had released Xie Xiaofeng and the girl, and the elder had also helped Xie Xiaofeng find Chen Hao and his granddaughter.

"It was you!" the Second Generation Nether King pointed angrily at the Snow Mountain Tribe elder, "All along, it was you!"

At that moment, the Second Generation Nether King's face showed a trace of pain.

His consciousness had encountered a strong psychic backlash, causing him to feel dizzy and disoriented.

That was Chen Hao realizing that he was sensing the Nether King's Heart on his body and sending a counterattack, invading his consciousness.

Noticing the Second Generation Nether King's discomfort, the Snow Mountain Tribe elder abruptly stepped forward, his hands gripping tightly around the Second Generation Nether King's wrists, and then stared into the Second Generation Nether King's eyes.

Through the Second Generation Nether King's eyes, he saw Chen Hao; likewise, Chen Hao also saw him.

"Young man, I am an elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe, where are Tu Yi and Han Shuang?" the Snow Mountain Tribe elder urgently asked, all the while trying with an incantation to suppress the Nether King's Heart within the Second Generation Nether King.

"You!" the Second Generation Nether King said weakly. At that moment, with the Nether King's Heart suppressed, his face was pale and his spirit scattered, temporarily unable to deal with the Snow Mountain Tribe elder.

"They have already fled far away," Chen Hao replied after a pause, surprised by the events that had transpired in the ancient city, not understanding why the Snow Mountain Tribe elder would suddenly appear and converse with him.

"That's great!" the Snow Mountain Tribe elder's tightly furrowed brow suddenly relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. For Tu Yi and Han Shuang to have a happy ending was a kind of redemption for him, lessening the guilt in his heart.

"Young man, I will recite an incantation for you, which can weaken the power of the Glacier Heart. Make sure that you remember it well," the Snow Mountain Tribe elder hurriedly continued. He knew the Second Generation Nether King would not let him go, so he planned to tell Chen Hao how to deal with the Second Generation Nether King before his death.

Having said this, he swallowed a gulp of saliva, and just as he was about to recite the incantation after catching his breath, a dagger suddenly stabbed into his abdomen.

"Ugh!" he let out a painful shriek, and then the Second Generation Nether King shoved him to the ground.

"Ah!" The girls below suddenly let out a sharp scream, then crying and crying in fear and confusion they shouted for the "Elder".

The Second Generation Nether King threw the dagger on the ground, and then severed the connection between the two Nether King's Hearts.

A burst of Spiritual Power erupted from within him, spreading outward and breaking the Snow Mountain Tribe elder's heart incantation's restraint.

"You old fool, how dare you trick me!" the Second Generation Nether King lifted his left foot and stepped on the Snow Mountain Tribe elder.

"You can't kill me," the Snow Mountain Tribe elder said in extreme pain, "If you kill me, you will never be able to freeze the Volcano King's heart."

The Second Generation Nether King let out a cold laugh, saying, "Those little ones will arrive here in a few days. Then, after I kill them and obtain a complete Glacier Heart, combined with the Spiritual Power of the elites within the city and the ancient beasts outside, I won't need you to freeze the Volcano King's heart."

"If I can't freeze the Volcano King's heart, I will definitely exterminate your Snow Mountain people before that!" the Second Generation Nether King added.

Having said that, he picked up the dagger covered in the Snow Mountain Tribe elder's blood beside him and stabbed him again in the body, sneering, "Actually, I've wanted to have you cut into pieces for a long time, but I never had the determination to do it. It's thanks to you that you've pushed me to this hopeless situation, forcing me to make the choice to kill you!"

"Ah!" The Snow Mountain elder let out a heart-rending scream, his entire body convulsing in pain, his complexion growing more and more deathly pale.

"If you know what's good for you, just tell me the incantation to freeze the Volcano King's heart, and I might consider sparing your Snow Mountain people," the Second Generation Nether King said coldly, his smile looking very terrifying at the moment.

After that, he stabbed the Snow Mountain Tribe elder again.

"I, I!" The Snow Mountain Tribe elder mustered the last bit of strength in his body and raised his hand to grasp the Second Generation Nether King's collar, "If I tell you, our people will have even less hope of surviving."

"Hahaha!"

After laughing wildly, the Second Generation Nether King looked down and asked, "I really don't understand. Weren't our fourty thousand years of cooperation good? I brought the most outstanding elites from both the yin and yang realms here, turning this place into a dreamland. And you continued to fulfill your mission as an elder, with your people living peacefully in the tribe. Why! Why did you betray me and destroy it all!"

"For the sake of preserving our Snow Mountain people's faith," said the Snow Mountain Tribe elder very calmly, "and even more for freedom!"

"Bullshit freedom, I am the faith! The only faith in this world!" the Second Generation Nether King shouted, and then thrust the dagger in his hand into the Snow Mountain Tribe elder's heart.
