Brother Monkey?
Lin Qiye instantly recognized the figure that left on the cloud. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned around and said to the others:
"Hold on to the new recruits. I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cloud of gas rolled out from under Lin Qiye's feet, carrying his body and chasing after him rapidly.
Seeing Lin Qiye leave, Baili Pangpang and others looked at each other with serious expressions.
"Where are the new recruits?"
"The fastest ones have already reached the foot of Gongger Peak, while the slower ones probably still have half a day to go."
"In this emergency, we'd better be careful." An Qingyu thought for a moment and quickly gave an order, "Now all the new recruits are scattered in two places, Gongger Peak and Kayushi Border Defense Company. There are more new recruits in the Border Defense Company, so I, Jiang Er and Cao Yuan will go there to guard the situation. Fatty, you stay with Brother Zhua to guard the new recruits in Gongger Peak.
If anything goes wrong, call the radio."
"good."
No one had any objection to An Qingyu's arrangement. They immediately split into two groups and flew in different directions.
…
At the foot of Kongur Peak.
Fang Mo stepped his boots into the thick snow, slowly pulled them out, and moved forward with difficulty. An unnatural blush appeared on his pale face.
After several days of trekking, even he could hardly hold on. The cold, low pressure, extreme exercise, and insufficient calories in the food had pushed his body to its limit.
He stumbled and fell into the snow. The cold snow covered his face, constantly absorbing his heat, and a feeling of suffocation surged into his heart.
He struggled to support himself with his arms and just as he was about to stand up, a strong hand grabbed the back of his collar and pulled him out of the snow.
"call……"
Fang Mo sat in the snow, turned his head and was slightly stunned.
He saw a one-eyed boy, wearing a winter suit covered in dust, standing behind him, looking down at him coldly.
"Lu Baoyou?" Fang Mo asked in surprise, "You really caught up with me?"
"I told you I would come back." Lu Baoyou said calmly, narrowing her one eye slightly. "But you... at your speed, you shouldn't have come here after such a long time. Are you deliberately slowing down?"
Feeling the murderous intent in Lu Baoyou's eyes, Fang Mo immediately shook his head.
"No, I just found some things on the way and went somewhere else, so I took a detour on the way back."
Fang Mo was telling the truth. If he had not smelled the entrance to Kunlun Xu halfway and changed his route and took a long detour, he would have climbed at least half of Kongur Peak by now.
Lu Baoyou snorted and said nothing.
He withdrew his gaze from Fang Mo, and continued walking towards the nearby Gongger Peak. Without turning his head, he said in a cold voice:
"Since we are back to the same starting line, let's compete again... This time, I will never lose."
Hearing this, Fang Mo was stunned and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In those tired eyes, the high will to fight was rekindled. He stood up shakily from the ground and took a deep breath. "Okay, let's fight again!"
He took a stubborn step and followed Lu Baoyou.
At this moment, a rainbow light in the sky passed over the two people's heads. Then, the rainbow light seemed to have sensed something, and with a light exclamation, it turned in the air and rushed straight towards Fang Mo under Gongger Peak.
Feeling the fluctuation of divine power coming from the rainbow light, Fang Mo's face suddenly changed!
"god?!"
But soon, he sensed a familiar aura from it.
Thump thump thump——!
Before Fang Mo could react, Lu Baoyou, who was walking a few steps ahead of him, narrowed his eyes, turned around, stepped on the snow and rushed to Fang Mo's side, pulling out the straight knife at his waist with a clang.
Lu Baoyou's blade pointed directly at the divine figure falling on the snow, like a ferocious beast with its fangs bared.
Fang Mo stood there in a daze.
"strangeness……"
In the rainbow light, a Taoist priest riding a white tiger with different eyes walked out slowly. He turned over and landed on the snow. He looked at Fang Mo in front of him in surprise, and then looked at the white tiger beside him, "Why do you have the aura of a white tiger on you..."
White Tiger with Heterochromia and Fang Mo looked at each other, and a look of confusion appeared in their eyes.
Who am I? Where am I? Who is he?
As if sensing Lu Baoyou's murderous intent, Jade Ding Zhenren turned to look at him, frowning slightly.
"The Outer God's agent... is he a spy who has infiltrated Daxia?"
Under the pressure from Jade Ding Zhenren, Lu Baoyou's palms holding the knife were covered in sweat. He gripped the handle tightly, and his body was shaking uncontrollably.
When Fang Mo's gaze shifted away from the white tiger and he saw the Taoist's face clearly, a look of surprise emerged on his face. He saluted respectfully and was about to say something when a figure walked out from the wind and snow behind the two of them.
"Haha, it turns out to be Jade Ding Zhenren."
A fat man wearing a crimson cloak walked up to Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou with a smile, rubbed his hands, and said excitedly, "I'm Baili Pangpang from the Nightfall team, nice to meet Master Yu Ding."
Hearing the words "Master Yu Ding", Lu Baoyou behind him was stunned.
He carefully looked at the Taoist in front of him and was extremely shocked. This plain-looking man was the Jade Ding Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals in the Daxia mythology?
Just as he was secretly surprised, Fatty Baili in front of him had already reached out and pressed down the straight knife in his hand, and at the same time turned to Master Yu Ding and said jokingly:
"Master, this kid is not a bad person, he is just a junior with an impatient temper... Please don't mind it, Master."
The moment Baili Pangpang appeared, Jade Ding Zhenren's gaze had completely shifted from Lu Baoyou to him, as if he was nailed there and could not move away at all.
Jade Ding Zhenren was stunned for a moment, and then a look of shock appeared in his eyes:
"Who are you……"
"Master." Before he finished speaking, Fatty Baili spoke again, "Listen, there is thunder in the west."
Rumble——!
Low thunder came from the direction of the western border of the fog. Jade Ding Zhenren turned his head and saw Lei Gong and Dian Mu standing in the clouds, bombarding the fog with thunder, but they could not stop it from spreading at all.
Jade Ding Zhenren retracted his gaze and stared at Baili Pangpang for a long time. He seemed to understand something and nodded:
"I see... Well, I'll take my leave then."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and bowed, then mounted the white tiger again and turned into a rainbow of light and flew towards the distant mist.
When Jade Ding Zhenren's figure completely disappeared from his sight, Baili Pangpang patted the snowflakes on his crimson cloak, turned his head to look at Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou, and smiled slightly:
"Okay, go ahead. I'll be waiting for you at the top of Kongur Peak."
