On the way back, the biting winds of the Far North still howled, but with the Ice Empress accompanying them and the Ferocious Beast's pressure clearing the way, the journey was peaceful.
Suddenly, a violent surge of Soul Power and a thunderous roar came from a snowy valley ahead.
"Hm?"
Bibi Dong stopped, her violet eyes narrowing as she looked toward the valley. "A ten-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demon. Looks like someone's in trouble."
Chen Doudou sensed that familiar presence too. It was the same huge creature Bibi Dong had subdued with a single move while they were traveling earlier.
"Come on, Doudou. Let's go take a look."
When they reached the heights above the valley, they saw a fierce battle raging below.
A Titan Snow Demon more than fifty meters tall was thrashing about like a madman, swinging its enormous fists. Each blow made the ground tremble violently.
Facing it was a group of people.
At their head stood a middle-aged man in an extravagant golden-threaded robe. His aura was deep and powerful. He was Jing Hongchen, Hall Master of Mingde Hall in the Sun Moon Empire.
Behind him stood two young men and two young women.
One was a handsome silver-haired youth wielding a pair of crescent-shaped blades. He was Xie Yue.
Beside him stood a charming girl with short golden hair, dressed in a silver outfit. Her waist was slender, and her eyes held a naturally bewitching allure. She was Hu Liena.
There was also a white-haired boy and girl. The boy was handsome, the girl adorable, and they bore a striking resemblance to each other. They were Jing Hongchen's grandchildren.
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.
At that moment, they were clearly embroiled in a hard-fought battle.
For some reason, the fifty-thousand-year-old Titan Snow Demon had gone berserk.
