After a whole day of traveling, Mingluo discussed with everyone in the car how to ambush Huijianzhi, then he ate something and took a nap to rest up.

As the last ray of sunlight disappeared from the horizon, the bear car finally arrived at the far north.

The Far North, as the name suggests, is an extremely cold place where ice and snow coexist, like the South Pole in the human world.

Ming Luo did not feel cold because she was protected by the colorful skirt given to her by Jiao Bai. Brother Xiong, as a tough bear man with thick skin and flesh, had long been accustomed to the severe cold in the north. Moreover, he and Ye Zhihan both had true qi to protect their bodies, so they could naturally withstand the biting cold.

But Fat Peach was not so lucky. Although its realm was high, its racial limitations were there after all. It resembled a jellyfish and was exposed to the cold air and wind. It was almost frozen into an ice cube, and its round little body could not fly at all.

Seeing that Fat Peach was about to pass out from the cold, Brother Bear grabbed Fat Peach, who was swaying in the air, and stuffed it into his thick clothes.

In the bear's warm embrace, Fat Peach finally regained some consciousness, but was still very weak and unable to move freely.

"Thank you." Mingluo thanked on behalf of Pangtao, thinking that Brother Xiong was really reliable.

"We are all family, there is nothing to thank me for." Brother Xiong waved his hand domineeringly, but in fact his chest was frozen cold by the fat peach. He quickly mobilized his true energy to protect his chest.

Following the instructions of General Manager Xiong, Brother Xiong took Ming Luo and Ye Zhihan to search the far north for a long time, and finally found the location of the ancient ruins step by step.

There was no one here and it was eerily quiet. Ming Luo held his breath and concentrated, not daring to even breathe.

The ancient ruins were located underground, and the three of them quietly sneaked in through the entrance.

However, Mingluo felt very uncomfortable with the entrance. The entire ancient city was covered with ice and snow, with only a corner of the wall exposed. This corner included most of the door frame, as if the ancient city was welcoming people to enter.

It would be more accurate to say that the ancient city swallowed up Ming Luo and others rather than saying that they entered the ancient city.

There was endless darkness under the ancient city. Ming Luo took out a few stalks of sunlight grass that he had prepared long ago, used the vines to make torches, and injected some spiritual power into the sunlight grass. The faint white light of the sunlight grass suddenly became like a powerful lighting lamp.

This is the magical plant that Ye Zhihan introduced to her in the underground river. Although its light is weak, its endurance is extremely strong. Mingluo remembered it at that time.

"Sister Ming, you are also very powerful!" Brother Xiong patted Ming Luo on the back heroically and almost slapped Ming Luo to the ground.

"Ahem, men and women shouldn't touch each other. You'd better not take pictures of me in the future." Ming Luo steadied her steps. Since Brother Xiong appeared, how many times had she almost fallen under the bear's paw?

Brother Xiong rubbed his hands together in embarrassment and replied obediently, "Okay, Sister Ming."

"Men and women should not touch each other" was just an excuse Mingluo made up. She just didn't want to be knocked to the ground by the bear's paw again. However, this sentence made Ye Zhihan feel sweet in his heart. As expected, Mingluo treated him differently from other men.

Under the illumination of the enhanced sunlight grass, they were able to see the appearance of the dungeon clearly.

The entire city seemed to be frozen in an instant. All objects were covered with a thick layer of ice crystals. Even the cats and dogs that were drinking water and gnawing on bones were frozen into ice sculptures. There were unwashed clothes in the basin and a pot of stewing meat on the stove. The breath of life was extremely strong, as if this place was a vibrant city in the previous second, and turned into a lifeless ice city in the next second.

What's even more strange is that there is no one here.

The city looked like it had a strong atmosphere of life, but there was no one there. Ming Luo was very panicked. Could it be haunted?

Unconsciously, Ming Luo moved a little closer to Ye Zhihan, and while shivering as he walked forward, he looked around, almost hiding behind Ye Zhihan.

"Don't be afraid." Ye Zhihan said in a low voice, and took Mingluo's hand which was clenched into a small fist.

"Thank you." Ming Luo looked at Ye Zhihan with gratitude. Feeling the warmth in Ye Zhihan's palm, she felt much more at ease. She quickly took a deep breath to adjust her mentality. It was really great to have such a caring partner.

The further they walked, the more strange they felt this ancient city was. The existence of some buildings here was completely unreasonable, such as the towering floating staircase not far away.

They were clearly already under the ice field, so they shouldn't have gone too deep underground. However, the stairs seemed to have no end in sight. Judging from the height of the stairs, they should have broken through the glacier and reached the clouds long ago.

It was pitch black up there, and nothing could be seen clearly. Ming Luo felt very unsure. He just kept going up blindly in the dark. There was no way to retreat if he encountered any crisis. If the floating stairs broke due to disrepair, they would definitely fall to their deaths.

"Shall we go up?" Brother Xiong asked tentatively.

"Yeah." Ye Zhihan nodded slightly.

After investigation, there were no clues left in the ice city, and the road in front of them was the only way, and they had to go up.

Brother Xiong walked in front, Mingluo walked in the middle, and Ye Zhihan came in the back. This was the position Mingluo chose deliberately. This way, her position should be relatively safest. Even if she slipped and fell, Ye Zhihan should be able to find her in time and pull her up.

However, passively waiting for rescue is not Mingluo's style. She is best at preventing problems before they happen.

She had collected a large number of pine cones when entering the Far North, and they came in handy now. She used her ability to transform the pine cones into a rope similar to a safety rope. As she climbed the stairs, she used the safety rope to secure her position and tied the daylight grass, which had condensed into the shape of a torch, to her back.
