Amer, watching the three locals silently walk back, couldn't help but sigh softly.
These locals wouldn't submit to Tiger Dad for no reason; it was simply because Tiger Dad was too powerful. That move just now had completely stunned them.
To put it bluntly, the moment the "tiger dad" appeared, his domineering aura made everyone bow down in his presence.
Yes, it's that simple and unpretentious!
The night passed amidst howling winds and surging torrents, and as the white light pierced the sky, a new day officially began.
Tiger Dad opened his eyes and looked around at the unchanged surroundings with a sense of boredom. Since the strange mist beast was destroyed, nothing strange had appeared again.
Tiger Dad had hoped to get more ice beads, but after waiting all night, nothing came of it.
Shanfeng held a clear ice bowl, stirring it with an ice spoon, his eyes filled with curiosity. This was food that the locals had just brought over. He had just come out of the ice cave when they looked over and eagerly offered him food, clearly still not giving up on their intention to find Tiger Dad as a backer.
The food wasn't plentiful; there was just a large bowl of milky white meat broth. I didn't know what kind of meat it was, or what the broth was made of. What was surprising, however, was the ice bowl itself. Despite being filled with hot broth, it didn't melt at all.
These ice bowls are made of real ice. If you turn your head now, you can see the locals digging and grinding ice.
Although these locals came prepared, they were clearly in a hurry and didn't bring much. After all, they had enough food and warm clothing. Bowls and utensils not only take up space but also weigh a lot, so they were obviously not essential items.

"Hmm? It's meat broth!"
Inside the ice cave, Yao Yao, still half-asleep, had just opened her eyes when her nose twitched, and she instantly became fully awake!
Afu turned his head and poked his head into the hole. Seeing that his little master was awake, he lowered his head and rubbed his face against Yao Yao's.
The ice cave that Amo and the others dug was barely big enough for them to squeeze into; even Afu, with his large body, couldn't fit completely in, and most of his body was still outside.
However, Ah Fu's thick fur, coupled with the protection of spiritual energy, prevents him from getting cold outside and also serves as a warning.
As advanced ability users, Amo and the others could naturally use their spiritual power to resist the cold. However, if it lasted too long, the consumption would be too great, which was not suitable. Therefore, the three of them hid in the cave, trying to use their spiritual power as little as possible to conserve their strength and spirit stones.
The Dragon Roar Base also has a map of spirit veins, and the humans are also mining spirit veins, with a decent output. However, humans currently do not have spatial spirit artifacts, so they do not carry many spirit stones, which can only be used as a supplement to spiritual power in emergencies.
The most cost-effective way for Amo and the other two to save spirit stones is to use only Afu as their spirit beast, since Afu is very warm and can keep them warm even without a fire.
"Brother Xu! Are you making soup?" Yao Yao called out from her lap towards the outside of the cave, thinking that Xu was making food, since they had brought dried meat.
Outside the cave, Ah Xu and Ah Mo sat around the milky white meat soup, their eyes fixed on Tiger Dad.
After the locals delivered meat soup to Tiger Dad and Mountain Wind, they also delivered some to Amo and his group, showing that they hadn't overlooked this small team.
Amo and his companions naturally had their concerns. Although it was impossible to start a fire in this environment, they did not lack food, and it would be safer not to eat.
But seeing Tiger Dad lick it, Amo and Axu naturally chose to observe. If there was nothing else to do, it would be better to have some hot soup.
Yao Yao rubbed her eyes, but received no response. The little girl came out on her own and saw her two older brothers staring at Tiger Dad with serious expressions. She stopped talking, squatted between the two of them, and stared straight at Tiger Dad.
——————————
Tiger Dad was naturally aware of Amo and the others' concern, but the big tiger didn't care; these humans posed no threat to it.
"Wow." He can drink.
A few minutes later, Tiger Dad growled at the mountain wind. He had checked the food; it was fine, and it even tasted pretty good!
Tiger Dad's share was naturally indispensable. Shanfeng had a big bowl, while Tiger Dad had a big basin, the kind of ice basin the size of a large washbasin.
Tiger Dad and Mountain Wind are cautious about unknown food. Tiger Dad's decision to 'test the poison' first is entirely based on his confidence in his abilities.
Shanfeng disagreed, as Tiger Dad certainly couldn't be allowed to test poison on himself, but Tiger Dad's unwillingness to let Shanfeng test the poison made him angry.
After all, Tiger Dad's perception is different from that of humans. He doesn't have the same shady ways of those in power. Moreover, in his eyes, Shanfeng is still a cub, a half-junior, so naturally he would not agree.
Shanfeng was very worried because he couldn't resist Tiger Dad. However, Tiger Dad only tasted a little bit. If there was a problem, this amount wouldn't cause any harm to his huge body, even if there were toxins.
Furthermore, its spiritual power is much stronger than that of the mountain wind, so even if something goes wrong, Tiger Dad will be better able to control it.
After receiving confirmation from Tiger Dad, Shanfeng carefully sipped a little soup. Although Tiger Dad had tried it, Shanfeng was, after all, human, and the difference in constitution between him and Tiger Dad could lead to unexpected factors. This was something given by the locals, which might be specifically designed for humans and wouldn't have any effect on Tiger Dad.
Better safe than sorry. Shan Feng carefully sensed the changes in his body and found no discomfort. His spiritual energy also detected no problems, so he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Although they are nourished by spiritual energy, they will not be too hungry even if they do not eat for three to five days. However, they will still feel uncomfortable if they do not eat. Moreover, the surrounding environment is so cold that there is a big difference between having hot food and not having hot food.
