Yang Yuwei nodded, "That's right, it's probably not at sea, most likely on Iceland!"

Baxia said, "Brother Hua, why don't we take a look together? We've never seen Iceland before!"

"Alright!"

Iceland is not far from the North Pole. You can see the island from afar just by looking at the sea. It is all white, like a white pearl in the sea.

Before even entering Iceland, a blizzard greeted them, stinging their faces.

Baxia wisely retracted its little head into its shell.

"Aren't Iceland and Lingzhou both located overseas in the Northern Continent? Why are they so different?" Lan Hua asked curiously.

Crescent Moon smiled and said, "This is the wonder of the Half-Heaven Realm. Perhaps it is because of Iceland's special location that only Iceland has wind and snow."

"Master, I don't think so. I can sense the aura of a celestial artifact!"

Hongmei transmitted her voice, "This snowstorm is very likely caused by a celestial artifact!"

Lan Hua was taken aback; it seemed Iceland was no ordinary place.

Baxia's voice came from inside the tortoise shell, "This Iceland is covered in snow and wind all year round. Are there any sects there?"

Crescent Moon shook her head and said, "I've never heard of any sects in Iceland, but there must be some independent cultivators!"

Upon entering Iceland, everything was pure white, and you could hardly see anything of any other color.

Suddenly, a white shadow flashed past them; it was a white fox.

"Although this place is covered in ice and snow, there are still living things here!"

Yang Yuwei was overjoyed and quickly chased after the white fox. Lan Hua and Yueya smiled and followed after it.

After a long while, Yang Yuwei took out the jade plate again, but the pointer inside spun wildly and became completely unpredictable.

“Iceland’s terrain is unique, so it seems that finding prey on Sin Island won’t be easy!” Yang Yuwei’s pretty face showed a hint of helplessness.

"It's alright, let's take our time looking!" Crescent Moon comforted her.

The group flew deeper into Iceland.

Soon a large mountain appeared before them. The mountain range stretched out in a continuous, undulating pattern, and it was the only mountain range in Iceland.

Yang Yuwei sighed, "This mountain range isn't that big, but it's not that small either; it's hard to find!"

Just as everyone was searching like headless flies, Lan Hua suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" and then pointed in a direction, saying, "There's a fluctuation of Yuan energy in that direction!"

Lan Hua's cultivation level was a whole realm higher than Yang Yuwei and Yueya's, and coupled with her super strong mental power, her divine sense could cover a radius of twenty miles when fully extended.

"Chase!"

After Yang Yuwei finished speaking, she rushed ahead.

"Miss Sheep, I'm still not sure if that person is the prey you're talking about."

But Yang Yuwei had already flown far away and didn't hear what Lan Hua said at all.

Lan Hua shrugged, then used her Flowing Light Step to follow.

After flying for several miles, a figure appeared in mid-air, flying rapidly towards the Northern Continent.

"Wang Mazi, stop right there!"

Yang Yuwei shouted loudly, and seeing that the other party did not respond, she decisively used the Peacock King Technique, and a huge seven-colored peacock rushed towards the person.

When the peacock appears, the wind and snow will shun it wherever it goes.

The man grunted in response, seemingly quite surprised, and then with a flick of his right hand, a black sword beam shot out.

The sword light was extremely sharp, and it pierced through the peacock in an instant.

"A master!" Yang Yuwei exclaimed in surprise.

Crescent Moon said, "That's right, with such cultivation, he definitely has reached the Refining Spirit Realm. That person is not Wang Mazi!"

"Judging from this person's haste and the evil aura emanating from his swordsmanship, even if he isn't Wang Mazi, he's no saint either!"

"Let's see if I shoot him down first!"

Lan Hua summoned the Yueque Bow and unleashed the Double Dragons Emerging from the Sea move.

Two invisible arrows, controlled by mental power, shot towards the man's shoulder and chest.

The man exclaimed in surprise, then flicked his right hand with his sword-finger, unleashing several sword beams that accurately struck the invisible arrow.

"Um?"

"This person has quite a background!"

Lan Hua then made another move, which was to return in seven days.

Once the arrow was released, it instantly split into sixty-four arrows, divided into two waves, attacking the opponent from three directions.

The man was taken aback; this was the first time he had encountered such a troublesome archer.

A long sword appeared in his hand, exuding a sinister aura.

With a flick of his longsword, more than ten sharp sword beams shot out.

If it were an ordinary archer, so many sword beams would be enough to block the invisible arrow.

However, Lan Hua's invisible arrows can have their trajectory slightly altered under the control of her mental power, greatly increasing the difficulty of defense.

"how so?"

The man exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly swung his longsword, but managed to block more than ten invisible arrows.

Just when everyone thought that the man would surely be riddled with bullets, countless sword beams shot out from his body, as he unleashed his strongest defensive move.

Although many invisible arrows were blocked, a silver talisman arrow suddenly attacked, disappearing silently under the cover of the wind and snow.

When the talisman arrow entered within half a zhang of the man, it was too late to dodge.

The man let out a muffled groan as his left shoulder was pierced, followed by a blade strike that hit his chest.

His cultivation was frozen, and he fell from mid-air, crashing into the ground and creating a snow crater.

Lan Hua and the other two flew to within a hundred feet of the man before they could see his appearance clearly.

This person was dressed in all black, which appeared white due to the wind and snow. His hair was half white, but strangely, he was missing his left ear.

"Damn it, what did I ever do to you? Why did you shoot me?"

The man with the missing ear spat out a mouthful of blood and said angrily in a rough voice.

Baxia retorted, "Then why are you in such a hurry to run away? Isn't it because you have something to hide?"

"Hmph, can't I hurry to get home and have dinner?" the man with the missing ear said angrily, grinning.

“Miss Yang, although this person’s complexion is a bit ashen, he doesn’t have any pockmarks. He’s probably not your prey, is he?” Lan Hua said.

Yang Yuwei said in a deep voice, "It is indeed not him, but this person has a peculiar appearance and uses such evil spells, which makes him seem like someone else!"

"Who?" Lan Hua and Yue Ya asked curiously.

"The Deaf and Arrogant Nie Qiang!"

Upon hearing this, the man with the missing ear trembled, his expression shifting several times as he stared at Yang Yuwei.

"Never heard of it!" Lan Hua shook her head.

Crescent Moon replied, "I've heard of him. I've heard that this person is utterly wicked. He once slaughtered an entire family for a spirit sword!"

Yang Yuwei nodded and said, "That's right. After Sin Island learned about this, they put up a bounty, and countless bounty hunters went to capture him."

However, this person possessed unorthodox techniques and formidable strength. His evil sword technique had killed countless bounty hunters.

It wasn't until fifteen years ago that a bounty hunter at the peak of the Divine Refinement Realm intervened and brought him to justice.

"And then?" Baxia listened with great interest.

"I heard that Nie Qiang is imprisoned in the death row on Sin Island. Because of his heinous crimes, he will never be released!"

After saying that, Yang Yuwei looked coldly at the person in front of her and said in a chilling voice, "You are Nie Qiang, nicknamed Evil Deaf, aren't you?"

"That's right, I am Xie Long. How do you know that so clearly?"

Xie Long glanced at Yang Yuwei's waist and saw a jade pendant with the character "hunter" engraved on it. He then realized what was going on.

"So you're a bounty hunter from Sin Island. Damn it, what a small world!" Nie Qiang spat and snorted.

Yang Yuwei said in a deep voice, "The Death Sin Prison on Sin Island is the most important of the eighteen prisons. No one has ever been able to escape it. Anyone who enters has their dantian destroyed."

"Tell me, how did you escape?"
