On the other side, Kerry, accompanied by his entourage, slowly surrounded them. But the last giant frost wolf, sensing the abnormality, charged forward, buying the pack time to escape.
In the end, Kerry only managed to acquire one Frost Wolf, leaving him quite frustrated. He pursued the wolf for several miles, managing to kill several Snow Hares, before returning home dejectedly.
"I hope there are only a few snow hares in that mountain stream, then I'll win. Otherwise, the little girl will laugh at me again."
Back on the mountain peak, Kerry heard the chirping sounds coming from the forest ahead and knew that his father was unleashing his power, and the harvest would surely be plentiful.
On the other side, there was absolutely no sound. Hmm, this is a sure thing!
Following the stream, the three of them continued onward, with only the sound of rushing water and the chilly air to be heard.
Xiaoxue stared inside, seemingly sensing something, and became somewhat anxious.
"Xue'er, is there really treasure inside?"
"Yes, Brother Fan, I can smell its scent."
"Could there be a guardian beast?"
"I don't know, I can't feel it."
"Oh, then it's probably true. I wonder what it is, and whether that martial artist can handle it."
"I feel that thing is very important to me, Brother Fan, can you help me?"
"Of course, you are my favorite little cutie."
The snow woman tightened her embrace around the slime, a beautiful smile curving her lips.
Before long, a pleasant fragrance filled the air, and Luo Fan sensed the aura of the guardian beast.
A snake, as thick as Ellie's thigh, was flicking its tongue and looking this way.
On the cliff face not far away, a glistening, grass-like plant was trembling slightly.
"A level 35 Frost Serpent! And an Ice Spirit Grass!" the servant exclaimed, taking a step back as he gripped his weapon tightly, his magic power rapidly circulating.
"Brother Fan, I want to eat that Ice Spirit Grass!"
Luo Fan jumped directly into the shadows and stealthily moved towards that direction.
Daisy and Ellie were ready, quickly replenishing their shields, their eyes fixed on the direction of the giant snake.
The air seemed to freeze; neither side chose to attack.
Just then, Xiaoxue made the first move. Countless ice spikes formed around her and then surged toward the demonic serpent, deliberately avoiding the spiritual herbs behind it.
The serpent, its body swaying, withstood the onslaught of ice spikes, managing to withstand the damage. Its entire body tensed as it lunged towards Xiaoxue.
Luo Fan took the opportunity to pick the spiritual herbs and then hid in the shadows.
The serpent's attack was blocked by the attendant, who directly met it with a blast of icy blade energy, forcing the serpent to change direction.
But when it turned around and saw that the spirit herb was gone, the demonic snake became completely enraged and spewed out bursts of white breath.
"Be careful, that white mist contains a cold poison!" the attendant warned.
Light snow began to move again, countless snowflakes fluttering and rushing towards the white mist. Soon, those snowflakes turned into icicles, continuously falling to the ground.
Before long, the water froze, and the air became extremely cold. The snow rabbit in Ellie's arms seized the opportunity to slip out, but it was frozen solid into an ice sculpture in no time.
"Watch out, that giant snake has disappeared!"
"Hehe, another one who likes to play hide-and-seek. Is he using the icy environment to become invisible?" Luo Fan returned to Xiao Xue's feet and directed the girl's actions.
A moment later, a series of ice spikes poured out from Xiao Xue, directly knocking out the giant snake that had been lurking towards them.
The servants quickly followed, and Ellie used Shadow Chains to forcibly slow down the snake. Daisy followed up with Freeze, but the effect was mediocre, only barely reducing the snake's speed.
The giant snake's scales were highly defensive, and repeated attacks failed to injure it.
Xiaoxue continued her relentless bombardment with ice spikes, relentlessly attacking the giant snake's head, forcing it to protect its eyes.
Seeing how difficult it was to deal with the big guy, Luo Fan pondered a solution.
Its chrysanthemum? The snake was too long and lying on the ground, completely invisible, and the ground was too cold.
What about its eyes? Even an ice pick couldn't break its eyelids, and it seems like I have no chance either.
All that's left is the mouth; I still have to avoid those two teeth and the white mist.
"Xiaoxue, attack its vital point!" Luo Fan defined a general area for the cute little girl.
This caused the giant snake to react even more violently, opening its massive jaws and lunging forward. The attendant quickly stepped in, but her weapon was frozen by the white vapor it had just exhaled, and her arm was covered in frost.
"Miss, run! I can't hold out much longer!" the servant shouted, constantly channeling his magic to restrict the giant snake's movements.
Ellie took a step back, managing to steady herself. Daisy fell to the ground, the white frost spreading over her body.
"I don't want to die!" Daisy cried out in struggle, "Help!"
Just then, taking advantage of the snake's pause to breathe, Luo Fan transformed into a sharp cone and pierced it directly.
The part that was still outside the snake's body was then separated, while the part that had been pierced began to frantically absorb the snake's blood.
That was so damn exciting! A hundred times more exciting than dealing with that ghost wolf!
The frenzied serpent writhed and twisted, unable to escape Luo Fan's attacks. The servant was sent flying, crashing to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood before barely managing to get back to his feet.
Finally, the slime, which had transformed into several small spikes, tore at the snake's heart before piercing it.
Watching the struggling flying snake in front of her, constantly shattering the surrounding rocks and ice, Daisy dared not move and slowly retreated with Ellie's help.
Xiaoxue continuously replenished the ice wall, cutting off the distance between herself and the giant snake, while patiently waiting.
Before long, Luo Fan finally found the location of the giant snake's magic core and severed its connection with his body. Only then did the giant snake's struggling movements slowly stop.
"Xue'er, swallow it quickly, the spiritual power of this herb is slowly weakening!" Luo Fan returned to Xue Nu's side and handed her a herb.
Without the slightest hesitation, the Snow Woman put it in her mouth and swallowed it.
The servants were about to speak up to stop them when they saw this, but it was too late; the two little ones were too fast.
"Sigh~, what a waste! If we planted these in the castle, all the ice-type magical pets would benefit!"
"What does that have to do with me? My Xiaoxue likes it, so of course I'll prioritize her!" With that, Luo Fan jumped next to the giant snake, retracting the rest of his body. He immediately felt a cool, smooth sensation all over his body, which felt very comfortable.
His ice resistance seems to have increased considerably.
Xiaoxue sat to one side, seemingly entering a certain state, remaining motionless.
"Xiaoxue, what happened?" Daisy brushed the ice shards off her body, her little hands still trembling, her heart still pounding with fear.
“It should be growing! Ice Spirit Grass can improve the quality of ice-type magical pets.” The attendant standing to the side used his weapon to prop himself up and stood up with difficulty.
"Oh, really? That's wonderful!"
What should we do with this big snake?
"Ellie, what do you think?"
"Let's just consider them our prey, we'll talk about it when we get back."
"Yes, yes, I'm sure I can get first place this time!" Daisy finally recovered.
It took Xiaoxue quite a while to stuff the giant snake into the magic bag before she recovered from her previous state.
"Xue'er, how are you feeling?" Luo Fan jumped into her arms.
Wow, the way Xiaoxue feels, she's actually developed quite a bit.
"Brother Fan, thank you! Xue'er has leveled up again, now she's level 25, and she's even learned a new magic spell, Ice Blast!" Xue'er pressed her little face against the slime in her arms and smiled happily.
Daisy noticed Xiaoxue's unusual behavior, ran over and hugged her, and she also noticed the change in Xiaoxue.
She seems more spiritual and more beautiful.
Ellie blushed slightly; her pet was such a pervert, where was he touching her? Xiaoxue, on the other hand, was completely smitten!
Just as they were about to return, the Duke came looking for them. He was relieved to find that everyone was alright.
"Xiaoxue ate an Ice Spirit Grass?" Kaili was instantly unsettled. That thing was priceless, how come he didn't have such good luck?
When they finally returned to the castle, Carey was shocked once again.
Two snow wolves, dozens of snow rabbits, and most importantly, an ice serpent—isn't the gap between him and his sister just too big?
Even the Duke was startled when he saw the true form of the serpent.
The value of this snake is equivalent to that of the dozens of Frost Deer I hunted, especially its scales, which are perfect for making equipment. Not to mention the Ice Spirit Grass that Xiao Xue ate.
Daisy really had a great time this time, and even her father was quite envious.
Evening, in the study.
"Send some people to investigate that cave tomorrow. If you find any monsters of level one or higher, bring them back!"
"yes!"
An unknown cave is definitely a valuable treasure.
"That girl Ellie is a blessing to our family. Anyone who dares to hurt her will be in for a world of hurt!"
"I wonder if the second son will like her. It would be great if we could arrange a marriage. As for the eldest son, forget it, he's not presentable enough!" The Duke sighed and looked out the window.
