Qin Yu'er

Tang Miao sat cross-legged on the ground, and within his spiritual space, he was developing new power.

Meanwhile, the Snow Woman continued to absorb the remaining power. Since Tang Miao had advanced, she, who had been suppressed for so long, was naturally eager to reach a new level.

Five days later...

Over a full five days, the original Ice Domain completely vanished without a trace.

Tang Miao, who had evolved Ice Element power, also awoke on the third day. When he came out, he found that Fei Lian's hostility had completely disappeared. Dark Serpent also told him what had happened.

After learning what had happened, Tang Miao summoned the constantly trembling Qilin again. Fei Lian remained respectful the moment the Qilin phantom appeared. However, the two Totem Beast seemed to exchange something...

However, the final result remained unchanged.

That's normal, actually. Some totems need human protection when they are at their weakest, and in turn, they protect humankind. But others don't need it and have gotten used to surviving on their own over the years.

"Whoosh!"

By sunrise on the fifth day, the Ice Domain had completely dissipated, and at the same time, a thick layer of ice emanated from the ground around the Snow Woman!

Judging from her aura, her strength seems to have reached the level of Sub-Monarch... Moreover, the Snow Woman is no longer the little loli she once was. She has completely changed. Although she doesn't yet have the mature aura of the old Snow Woman, she's now like a young girl in her prime. She has human hands and feet, and a curvaceous figure.

After advancing, the Snow Woman immediately returned to the Contract Space. Her power is still unstable and she needs a lot of time to rest. As for when she will wake up, that remains to be seen.

After the Snow Woman had absorbed Ice Element power here, the old Snow Woman also vanished into thin air.

Everything went smoothly. Throughout the entire process, Fei Lian neither expressed friendliness nor hostility. Although Tang Miao really wanted to have a few totems as his underlings, the Qilin wouldn't even pay his bill, so whatever he did was obviously superfluous. After taking in the Dark Serpent, he left with Sky Scarred White Tiger.

I went on a trip to Tianshan with the Snow Woman. The trip lasted half a month, and unexpectedly, I advanced my Ice Element to a new level.

Although I've been at the high-level Ice Element for a long time, it would normally take at least another six months to break through to the next level.

After leaving Fei Lian's new territory, Sky Scarred White Tiger invited him to Baihu's place, but Tang Miao refused. After all, the Little White Tiger was not yet ready to go, and there was nothing to do there. Besides, he was getting bored eating dry rations on the mountain every day.

The Sky Scarred White Tiger escorted Tang Miao for a while, and only turned back when they were almost at the outer edge.

Just as Tang Miao was descending the mountain, he suddenly saw a graceful figure walking downhill in the distance. Upon seeing this figure, Tang Miao quickened his pace. As he approached, the woman's figure became clearer and clearer. She was wearing a down jacket that tightly wrapped around her body. The jacket was somewhat loose, but it couldn't hide her beautiful figure.

Tang Miao was very curious about this beautiful woman from Tianshan, and he quickly arrived in front of her. When Tang Miao stopped in front of her, he paused slightly. Although her clothes weren't particularly nice, her stunningly beautiful face alone made him feel a surge of desire...

However, it was only for a moment; he wasn't driven by lust.

After all, the opponent's aura gave him a very, very strong feeling; his Ice Element power was completely overwhelming...

The woman, seeing Tang Miao suddenly appear, asked somewhat confusedly, "It was you... who saved me?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao rested her chin on her hand and said, "You wouldn't happen to be Qin Yu'er, would you?"

"You know me?" The woman paused, then looked at Tang Miao with a mixture of surprise and confusion.

Tang Miao shook his head before saying, "I don't know you, but I know you because I know Zhan Kong."

"Slash... Zhan Kong!?"

Hearing what Tang Miao said, Qin Yu'er became slightly excited. Moreover, on the day she broke free of the ice, she seemed to have seen a familiar figure! Based on what Tang Miao said, Qin Yu'er was now certain that the person who saved her was none other than Zhan Kong.

Then, looking at Tang Miao, she asked, "Did he save me? Where is he? Why can't I see him?"

"He can no longer be considered a human being..."

Tang Miao told the poor girl in front of him the truth about Zhan Kong.

After learning that Zhan Kong might be dead, Qin Yu'er felt somewhat desperate, but when she heard that he still retained a trace of his memories, she was quite happy.

After all, if there was anything in this world that she still cherished, it was probably only Zhan Kong.

Qin Yu'er looked at Tang Miao and said, "Could you tell me where he is? I want to go find him."

"Aren't you afraid I'm lying to you?" Tang Miao couldn't help but ask, given her unquestioning nature.

Qin Yu'er shook her head, then said honestly, "With your strength, you can't beat me. Lying to me won't do you any good."

"Well..."

Although it's a fact, and not very hurtful... why does he feel like he's been insulted?

He can easily defeat even a Monarch Level boss, and this little Super Level Mage is acting so arrogantly?

However, Qin Yu'er didn't mean any insult; she was simply stating the truth. Then, she looked at Tang Miao with a pitiful expression and said, "Could you tell me where he is? I want to see him."

"I'm not entirely sure where he is either..." Tang Miao really didn't know where Zhan Kong was. After all, Sha Yuan's location was constantly changing.

Qin Yu'er felt somewhat disappointed upon hearing this...

Tang Miao, a warm-hearted guy, would naturally find it most unacceptable for a girl to be like this, especially such a tragic young lady.

Besides, if she wasn't told, she would still be bothered later, so he quickly said, "But I can ask him for you. Whether he'll see you, or whether you'll survive, I don't know. So, are you really sure?"

"Mm." Qin Yu'er nodded in response without any hesitation.

Where else in this world could she go besides Zhan Kong? Only the Tianshan Scar...

She was originally sent down the mountain, but at the foot of the mountain, Qin Yu'er received no human warmth whatsoever, only the same indifference as before. This forced her to consider returning to Tianshan to wait for that man's arrival. But now that she knew his fate, continuing to wait here was clearly pointless.

Therefore, as long as I can see Zhan Kong, nothing else matters...
