"Sister Yan, we haven't even reached the inner layer of the blizzard yet, and we've already reaped a great harvest, especially those snow monsters. We've killed as many as they come, it's so satisfying!" Lin Muze couldn't contain his joy.
"Look at you, so naive. These snow monsters are nothing compared to what you've ever seen before," Yu Qiqi couldn't help but mock.
“Once we get to the inner layer, the Yeti will be even stronger. If you beg me, I might take pity on you and let you hide behind me.”
"Wow! That's scary! I'm really scared." Lin Muze rolled his eyes at Yu Qiqi with a sarcastic tone.
"Your description is so detailed, could it be that you've actually ventured deep into the inner layers of the blizzard? If you really have been there before, then I'll truly admire you. Anyone can boast and brag."
Yu Qiqi choked, "Of course I haven't been there, but I heard my father say that even with his strength, he almost got injured when he went deep into the inner layer of the blizzard, which shows how dangerous the inner layer is."
"If you're scared, you don't have to go," Lin Muze chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't laugh at you behind your back; I'll just burst out laughing on the spot."
"Who's afraid! I, Yu Qiqi, have never known how to write the word 'fear' since I was born! You should worry about yourself first. With your thin arms and legs, be careful that you don't get kidnapped and mistaken for a girl. Then we'll have to come and rescue you."
"You! You! You actually said I look like a woman!" Lin Muze thought he had misheard, his eyes wide. "I am so majestic and strong, how do I look like a woman at all?"
Yu Qiqi chuckled, "The way you look angry right now is just like that."
Lin Muze laughed angrily, "Violent woman! Tigress! Tomboy!"
"Lin Muze, are you looking for death?!" Yu Qiqi roared.
Ruan Xiyan and the others just smiled and didn't say anything. Listening to their bickering along the way made the journey anything but boring.
They've only just met, how come they're arguing like this? Is this what they call a bickering couple?
Gradually, they ventured deeper and deeper, successfully reaching the innermost layer.
The inner layer of the blizzard had no snow, but it was covered in a thick white fog that obscured visibility, making it difficult to discern directions and providing an ideal hiding and ambush site for the Yeti.
"Be careful, we've now entered the inner layer of the blizzard."
Hearing Ruan Xiyan's admonishing tone, Yu Qiqi and the others stopped fooling around and showed serious expressions.
The fog continued to thicken, and in just a moment it became so dense that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
Just as Ruan Xiyan was about to ask them to come closer, Luo Wanyin's exclamation suddenly rang out from within the white mist, "Wanwan, how are you?"
Luo Wanyin looked at the bleeding wound on her arm, gasped, and gritted her teeth, saying, "I'm fine, Xiyan. It seems there are quite a few snow monsters lurking in the snow around us."
"Just as I was about to attack that snow monster that attacked me, it disappeared back into the snow and vanished without a trace," Luo Wanyin reported, enduring the pain.
Ruan Xiyan's blood-red eyes revealed that the white mist was too strange. Even with her blood-red eyes, she could only see about five meters away.
She located Luo Wanyin and handed her a hemostatic pill.
The temperature here is extremely low, and wounds inflicted by the Yeti are very difficult to heal. If left untreated, the wounds will bleed to death, which is one of the reasons why the Yeti is so troublesome.
Luo Wanyin knew this wasn't the time to be sentimental, so she took the pill and swallowed it.
After taking the pill, the bleeding from the wound immediately stopped, and in the blink of an eye, the hideous wound healed.
"Sister Yan, Wanwan, where are you? Are you alright?" Yu Qiqi looked around and called out into the white mist.
Being in this white fog is akin to being blind, with all senses diminished.
A white figure flashed past behind her, and she swung her hammer at it.
But they hit nothing; the Yeti disappeared into the snow.
This made her feel like she had no way to use her strength, which was incredibly frustrating!
Sensing something approaching again, Yu Qiqi raised her hand to attack, but Ruan Xiyan grabbed her wrist and stopped her. "Qiqi, it's me."
"Sister Yan!" Yu Qiqi exclaimed with delight upon seeing Ruan Xiyan, "This white mist is so annoying!"
"Let's not talk about this now, let me take you out first." Ruan Xiyan pulled her away.
"Sister Yan, where are Wanwan and the others? I haven't seen them."
Ruan Xiyan didn't even look at her, her tone indifferent yet subtly impatient, "It's dangerous here. They broke free of the white mist first and have already left. We agreed to meet up ahead."
As Yu Qiqi watched Ruan Xiyan's retreating figure, she felt that something was amiss.
Especially Sister Yan in front of her, she had a strange feeling about her.
"Sister Yan, we first met in this blizzard, don't you remember?" Yu Qiqi asked tentatively.
Ruan Xiyan did not refute, "Yes, that's right."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qiqi abruptly shook off Ruan Xiyan's hand, and a meteor hammer appeared in her hand. "You're not Sister Yan! You're a fake and an imposter."
"I first met Sister Yan in the Monster Mountain Range, and we're friends. Wanwan and the others would never abandon me and leave alone. Who exactly are you?"
"You little brat, you're quite clever. I was planning to take advantage of your momentary lapse in guard and swallow you whole, but you managed to find out." The 'Ruan Xiyan' in front of me suddenly transformed into a snow monster.
However, this Yeti was different from the ones we had seen in the outer layer. This Yeti had a white halo floating above its head.
It stretched its cracking neck. "But it doesn't matter if I've been discovered. It won't stop me from swallowing you whole."
"Yeti!"
“I am not one of those low-blooded Yetis. I am the strongest under the Yeti King. You can call me the Left Yeti General.”
Upon hearing this name, Yu Qiqi's expression changed.
The Yeti King rules the entire blizzard plains, and has two generals under his command whose strength is second only to his own, making them like his left and right arms.
Her face was pale. How unlucky she was to encounter such a troublesome guy as soon as she entered the inner layer.
Where are Sister Yan and the others? They were clearly not far apart when they entered the inner area, but now we can't hear a sound from them at all.
There was something strange about this white mist; could it be that they had been separated without their knowledge?
Yu Qiqi never believed that Ruan Xiyan would abandon her; the only possibility was that Sister Yan and the others were also trapped.
In the white mist on the other side, after Ruan Xiyan rescued Luo Wanyin, Jun Yu also appeared beside her with Lin Muze.
She called Yu Qiqi's name several times, but there was no response.
"Xi Yan, I hope Qi Qi is alright!" Luo Wanyin frowned deeply.
"Don't worry too much. As the young master of Ice Feather Palace, Qiqi must have some means of self-protection. Let's break through this white mist first." Ruan Xiyan's eyes were sharp.
Breaking through this white fog will make it much easier to find people!
