It took them a full three or four hours before Bai Zhi and the others finally managed to shake off the giant shark pursuing them.
"Tell me, what exactly did you snatch from that thing?"
After climbing down from the sled and breathing warm air into his hands, Bai Zhi turned to Qi Guang Meng Xing and asked.
"Get the fire going first. I'll take it out and show you then."
Waving a finger in front of herself, Qi Guang Meng Xing wore a mysteriously secretive expression.
"I'll let you in on something first—it's good stuff."
Out on the vast Ice Sea, they built a campfire.
A kettle sat atop a simple stove made from several wooden supports, gurgling as steam rose from it. Not far away, an ice hole less than a foot across had been smashed open, exposing the water below. The ghost wolves that had previously pulled the sled transformed back into one and jumped into the ice hole.
Ever since the blue Banana Moon that night, the world had remained an Icy Snow Land. Although some parts of the sea had thawed, most of it was still the same as before.
After the four of them sat down around the campfire, Qi Guang Meng Xing stopped keeping them in suspense and took several round eggs out of her Inventory.
