Yang Guyun leaned Returnless Spear on the edge of the table and looked around.

Other guests in the tavern were also looking at them.

In a place like this, no one would ask.

Anyone who can survive Ice-Sealed Forest has some ability.

The main reason is that further north is Far North, and the Spirit Beast inside is not only old, but the cold wind from the north can freeze someone to death.

Hot soup and stew were served quickly.

Zhou Qiubai broke open the cake and soaked it in the soup, eating it without any image, while Yang Guyun ate slowly but not at all slow.

While the two were enjoying the food, the door of the tavern was pushed open, cold wind poured in, and two slender figures were brought in.

As soon as they entered, the noise in the tavern suddenly dropped by half.

The eyes of those Soul Master men were involuntarily attracted, but they did not dare to look any further.

The Soul Power fluctuations and clothing of the girls clearly indicate that they are not ordinary girls.

"Two guests, what do you want to eat?" The one-eyed boss said in a more respectful tone.

Soul Hunting Town Soul Master There are quite a few, but they all depend on the clothes.

Can ordinary Soul Master and noble Soul Master be dressed the same?

"Two bowls of noodles and a pot of hot tea." The older girl said.

"Okay."

The two of them found an empty table and sat down, right across from Zhou Qiubai and the others.

The young girl took off her cloak, revealing her long aqua-blue hair, with an ice crystal hairpin in her hair.

She held her chin and looked around boredly. Her eyes swept past the window and suddenly stopped.

"Bing'er." She lowered her voice and pulled the older girl's sleeve.

"Huh?"

"Look over there."

The older girl looked along her line of sight, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun.

At this time, Zhou Qiubai also looked up.

When their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Zhou Qiubai swallowed the cake in his mouth and showed a natural smile, "Hey, Miss Shui, we meet again."

Shui Bing'er stood up and walked to their table.

She looked at Zhou Qiubai, then looked at Yang Guyun, and nodded slightly. "Young Master Zhou, I didn't expect to meet him here."

Shui Yue'er also came over and said hello with a smile, "Yes, yes, what a coincidence!"

Yang Guyun put down his chopsticks and looked at the two sisters calmly. "Do you know each other?"

"A former client." Zhou Qiubai explained casually, "When Star Dou Forest helped people pass by, the two ladies Shui Clan hired me as their guide."

Yang Guyun said "Oh" and continued eating.

He had indeed heard Zhou Qiubai mention that when Star Dou was hanging out, he occasionally took on the job of guiding Soul Hunting to earn extra money.

Shui Bing'er's eyes fell on Yang Guyun, especially the black spear. "This is..."

"My friend, Yang Guyun." Zhou Qiubai introduced, "Gu Yun, this is Shui Bing'er, and next to him is Shui Yue'er."

Yang Guyun nodded in greeting but said nothing.

Shui Bing'er was secretly frightened.

She sensed Soul Power fluctuations of Yang Guyun, at least Four-Ring Soul Ancestor, and her aura was solid, obviously she had just broken through not long ago.

He looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he is already at the level of Soul Ancestor?

What concerned her even more was that gun...

"Young Master Yang won't take Martial Soul back into the body?" she couldn't help but ask.

As soon as these words came out, Shui Yue'er also looked closely at him curiously. "Really, just like this guy!"

She pointed at White Clothes Sword around Zhou Qiubai's waist, "You two are so weird, Martial Soul never leaves your hands, aren't you tired?"

"I can hear you." Zhou Qiubai said lazily.

Shui Yue'er stuck out his tongue.

Shui Bing'er glared at his sister, turned to Zhou Qiubai and said apologetically, "Yue'er is rude, Young Master Zhou, don't blame me."

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Zhou Qiubai waved his hand, "You two, why are you here alone? It's just the two of you, without any guards?"

Shui Bing'er looked slightly gloomy. "I originally brought some tribesmen to help Yue'er hunt for the third Soul Ring. But we encountered a snowstorm in the forest the day before yesterday and got separated."

"Blizzard?" Zhou Qiubai raised an eyebrow, "There shouldn't be a snowstorm in this season."

When they came out, they didn't see any snowstorm.

This is not Star Dou. Entering Frost Forest, there is only one main road. Due to the perennial ice and snow, most of those small roads are buried.

The road that Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun entered from the mine was also the road that Marquis of the North built specially for mining.

"It was caused by Spirit Beast." Shui Bing'er explained in a low voice, "We found a group of Ice Howl Wolf thirty miles to the north, which is just right for the moon. We wanted to set up an ambush and hunt, but who knew that the wolf could trigger the celestial phenomena and disperse the group with a blizzard. When the snow stopped, the family members were gone."

Shui Yue'er added, "We searched nearby for two days but couldn't find anyone. The supplies were almost running out. We happened to see the road sign and had no choice but to go out to the forest to rest."

Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun looked at each other, thinking in their hearts.

Ice Howl Wolf, Spirit Beast live in groups, usually thirty to forty animals in a group. The alpha wolf can lead the wolves under his hands to cause the wind and snow. The attributes and abilities do meet the needs of Shui Yue'er Lustrous Jade Dolphin Martial Soul.

"So what are your plans now?" Zhou Qiubai asked.

Shui Bing'er pursed his lips, as if it was hard to speak, but he looked at his sister and said, "Young Master Zhou, I know this request is very abrupt... but can you two please help me? Help Yue'er hunt for the third Soul Ring."

She paused and added, "The reward... one thousand Gold Soul Coin, how about it?"

Shui Bing'er also knows that Zhou Qiubai is at the same price as Star Dou, but this is Frost Forest, and the environment is worse than Star Dou.

Zhou Qiubai's eyes lit up.

Yang Guyun took a sip of soup silently.

This money addict is hopeless.

"A thousand~" Zhou Qiubai rubbed his chin, "Ice Howl Wolf group is not easy to deal with, especially the alpha wolf. If you can't handle it, you will have to fight hard."

"Two thousand." Shui Bing'er increased the price without hesitation.

"Deal." Zhou Qiubai slapped the table, "When are you leaving?"

Shui Bing'er was stunned. I didn't expect him to agree so happily.

Yelled high.

Her monthly expenses are nearly two hundred Gold Soul Coin. Now it seems that she has to use her previous small treasury.

"Eat first, rest for the night, and then go into the forest tomorrow morning." Zhou Qiubai sat down again and broke another piece of cake, "By the way, did you agree on a meeting place before you were separated from your tribe?"

"Yes." Shui Bing'er took out a map from his arms and spread it out on the table. "We made an appointment that if we get separated, we will meet at Cold Ice Lake in three days. Today is the second day."

Zhou Qiubai looked at the location of Cold Ice Lake marked on the map, which was about fifty miles away from their current town.

The habitat of the Ice Howl Wolf group mentioned by Shui Bing'er is twenty miles northeast of Cold Ice Lake.

"The route is okay." He nodded, "The same rules?"

Shui Bing'er hesitated for a moment and nodded. "Okay."

"Also." Zhou Qiubai paused and lowered his voice a bit, "Have you met anyone from the Marquis Mansion in the past few days when you have been in the forest?"

Shui Bing'er's face changed slightly. "Young Master Zhou means..."

"Slave Hunting Squad, or, Marquis Mansion private soldier."
