"Sis …" The veins on Zi Che's face throbbed. He stood up swiftly and took a step forward. In an instant, he arrived next to the block of ice and threw a punch at it. With a bang, the block of ice instantly shattered into pieces.
The shadow on the ice immediately disappeared as the ice shattered. However, the moment before it disappeared, the woman inside seemed to have sensed something and turned her head to look at it.
Hu Zi was enraged. He glared at the ice and pounced on it like a tiger. His voice was like a roar.
"How dare you destroy the good thing your Grandpa Hu created with so much effort?! I'll kill you!"
Su Ming had a strange expression on his face. He respected Hu Zi's quirk, but he did not know whether it was just a figment of his imagination, but the moment the ice was shattered by Zi Che, he seemed to have heard two sighs coming from the area around them.
"That's my sister! My sister! "Zi Che's face was also filled with anger as he roared at the incoming Hu Zi.
Hu Zi was originally livid, but when he heard Zi Che's words, he was momentarily stunned. Soon, his imposing manner disappeared and he came to an abrupt halt. He scratched his head with a slightly embarrassed look on his face, but it soon turned into a nonchalant look.
"Oh well, I'm a generous man. If it's broken, then so be it. If worst comes to worst, I'll just create another one."
Zi Che's breathing quickened as he glared at Hu Zi. More veins popped up on his face.
"Ah, alright, alright. If worst comes to worst, I'll just not look at your sister anymore." Hu Zi quickly spoke up, feeling a little guilty.
"Are you serious?" Zi Che immediately asked.
"Of course, of course. There are so many people in Freezing Sky Clan. If I say I won't look at her, then I won't. But don't tell your sister," Hu Zi quickly promised.
Zi Che's face was dark. When he saw Hu Zi's expression and the guilty look on his face, he could not help but smile wryly, but cold sweat broke out on his body. He instinctively looked at Su Ming.
There was a strange look on Su Ming's face. He did not bother with Zi Che and Hu Zi. Instead, he walked around the area as if he was looking for something.
His strange actions immediately attracted Hu Zi and Zi Che's attention. The two of them also looked around.
"Youngest junior brother, what are you looking for?" Excitement appeared on Hu Zi's face. He quickly approached Su Ming with light steps and asked in a low voice. As he spoke, he kept sizing up Su Ming.
Su Ming's footsteps faltered and his gaze fell on a glacier before him. After a long while, he shook his head and looked at Hu Zi.
"Third Senior Brother, can you … stop going to see Minister Chen?"
Once Hu Zi heard it, he immediately nodded, but soon, a look of understanding appeared on his face, and he gave Su Ming a mysterious smile.
When he saw Hu Zi's smile, Su Ming was about to speak.
"I understand, I understand … Heh heh, youngest junior brother, you don't have to explain anymore. There's nothing your third senior brother doesn't understand. Your third senior brother is the smartest person in the entire ninth summit."
Su Ming could only smile wryly. He knew that he would not be able to explain himself, that was why he chose not to. Instead, he wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed towards Hu Zi.
"There's no need to be so polite. We're from the same sect. Right, Junior Brother, Third Brother's Intrusive Dreams is powerful, isn't it? It sent Su Ma Xin running away, didn't it? Hmph! Junior Brother, don't worry. I haven't mastered Intrusive Dreams yet. Once I master it, it'll be even more powerful."
As he spoke, he suddenly lifted his head and looked at the sky.
"Youngest junior brother, I won't talk to you anymore. It's almost time. I have to rush to the eighth summit as soon as possible. By the way, do you want to come with me?" Hu Zi looked at Su Ming. When he saw Su Ming shaking his head, he quickly flew up and turned into a long arc that charged into the darkness in the distance. Soon, he disappeared without a trace, but no matter how Su Ming looked at his departing figure, he looked rather pathetic.
It was especially so when he saw Zi Che's forbearing expression. He understood that his third senior brother was clearly feeling a little awkward and guilty after being caught red-handed. That was why he left in a hurry.
"This won't happen again, or else, it doesn't matter whether he's right or wrong. If you do this again, then I still lack a material for making medicine." Su Ming turned around and looked at Zi Che coldly.
Zi Che's heart trembled. He felt a little wronged, but when he saw the cold look in Su Ming's eyes, he lowered his head and obeyed.
"The ice was blurry. I couldn't see anything. Besides, my senior brother also said that he won't look at your sister anymore. Let's just forget about it." As Su Ming spoke, he walked into the distance.
Zi Che let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He was not an unreasonable person. Su Ming might have said those words, but he did not do anything to him because of what happened just now. He only warned him not to do it again. This in itself was already a form of respect for him.
Once Su Ming and Zi Che left, a person suddenly flew towards the place filled with shattered ice from the distance. That person approached cautiously and stood on the spot, looking around furtively before quickly crouching down and sweeping away all the ice.
He bent his back and left quickly. That tall and sturdy figure was clearly Hu Zi.
'How unlucky. This is the first time I made something and I was enjoying myself watching it. I didn't expect to run into her little brother. How could I have forgotten about this..? Oh well, I'll have to be more careful next time,' Hu Zi mumbled and quickly left.
After a moment after Hu Zi left, the glacier that Su Ming had been staring at previously started distorting, and a handsome person gradually walked out from within.
There was a slightly awkward look on his face, but even so, he still looked as gentle as a spring breeze. That person was naturally second senior brother.
Once he appeared, he let out a few fake coughs.
"Youngest junior brother almost saw through me. It's all my fault for making such a good thing …" second senior brother mumbled and quickly left.
Once second senior brother left, another moment passed before distorted ripples appeared in the air around the area of 100 something feet. An old man dressed in a flowery long robe walked out from within.
The old man took a quick step forward and patted his robes in a relaxed manner. He placed his hands behind his back and calmly walked towards the top of the mountain. His expression looked as calm as ever, but there was a smug look in his eyes.
"Third is pretty good. He made such a good thing … It's a pity that it was broken … But with his personality, he'll definitely make another one in a few days, and he'll even strengthen it so that no one can break it with just one punch.
"It's a pity, it's a pity … But isn't Fourth too observant? He almost noticed that Second was by his side … Heh heh, but they're still too naïve if they want to see through my presence," the old man mumbled and walked forward proudly. He was … Tian Xie Zi.
The one dressed in flowery robes, Tian Xie Zi!
Time passed peacefully. As Hu Zi created and peeped, Second Elder Brother planted grass during the day and stole flowers at night. Occasionally, he would accidentally run into Hu Zi looking at the ice he was making. Time passed slowly. Of course, Tian Xie Zi would occasionally appear at night, dressed in flowery robes.
Very soon, two months passed by.
During these two months, the battle between Su Ming and Si Ma Xin in Freezing Sky Clan was spread among the people who had been watching that day. Gradually, almost all the disciples in the eight summits knew that a person who could fight against Si Ma Xin had appeared in the ninth summit.
They also knew that this person was a Divine General of Transcendence.
His name spread rapidly, and gradually, due to his battle against Si Ma Xin, his name appeared on the Great Frozen Plains of Freezing Sky Clan's ranking board.
He was ranked ninth on the Great Frozen Plains, replacing Zi Che.
He was ranked ninth because the battle between Su Ming and Si Ma Xin had not ended. The people might have some understanding towards Su Ming's strength, but they did not know the specifics. From his battle against Si Ma Xin, they could tell that Si Ma Xin was clearly stronger than Su Ming.
It was especially so when the two of them did not manage to complete the final Style. This was something that many people regretted.
During these two months, besides Su Ming's name spreading through Freezing Sky Clan, there was also another big event that was being prepared in full swing.
There were only ten months left before the Sky Mist Shaman Hunt that was held once every ten years. Sky Mist Shaman Hunt was a regular event in Freezing Sky Clan.
It was held once every ten years, and each time, the disciples sent out would range from thousands to tens of thousands. Western Sea Clan, which was another big tribe in the Land of South Morning, would also send out disciples to fight against the Shamans together with Freezing Sky Clan.
At that time, when Sky Mist Shaman Hunt began, the disciples from the two clans would be on Sky Mist Barrier to intimidate the Shamans. They would also prevent a certain number of people from walking out of Sky Mist Barrier and entering the territory of the Shamans.
Each Sky Mist Shaman Hunt lasted for a year.
For all the disciples who participated in this battle, this year was a bloody trial and tempering. Whether their treasured swords were broken or if they were sharp, this year would be able to tell.
However, not every single Sky Mist Shaman Hunt would be held during Sky Mist Shaman Hunt. Since ancient times, there had been many Shaman Hunts, but only about a dozen of them had been incredibly devastating. The rest of the time, most of them were rather peaceful.
However, this time was different from the previous ones. The Sky Mist Shaman Hunt that would be held ten months later was a battle that only happened once every hundred years!
Sky Mist Shaman Hunt was held once every ten years. This was a small battle, and the scale of the battle that would happen once every hundred years would be much larger. This was a rule set a long time ago by the two big tribes in the Land of South Morning. The reason why the Shaman Hunt was held so frequently and had to be sent out on a large scale every hundred years was so that they could understand the speed at which the Shamans outside Sky Mist were developing.
Whether there were any outstanding Shamans appearing, whether there were any new Shamans, whether there were more Shamans, these were the main points of the battle that would happen once every ten years.
There were a lot of disciples who had joined Sky Mist Shaman Hunt multiple times within Freezing Sky Clan, but there were also some who had never joined before. However, in general, most of the disciples were already familiar with this. During these ten months, all those who knew that they would join the battle would isolate themselves and make their preparations.
During the two months of peace in the ninth summit, there were a few things that were not peaceful. Zi Che's sister had charged into the mountain multiple times and targeted Hu Zi.
At that moment, Su Ming was sitting cross-legged on the platform outside his cave abode. The sky was clear. As he sat there, he placed his right hand on the drawing board before him and drew again and again.
His movements were very slow, but there was a sense of ancientness that seemed to emanate from his fingers as he drew the line.
He was copying. For the past two months, he had been copying Si Ma Xin's sword slash, wanting to find that feeling he had felt in the past.
Zi Che watched by his side with an intoxicated look on his face, as if he wanted to find his own epiphany from those strokes.
Yet at that moment!
"Sun Da Hu, get your ass out here!" A woman's cold voice traveled forth from beyond the ninth summit.
"You stupid b * tch, why are you only staring at me? Your little brother saw it, and so did my youngest junior brother!" Hu Zi's muffled voice traveled forth, as if he was about to cry. He sounded incredibly wronged.
Zi Che was instantly embarrassed. Su Ming lifted his head and smiled wryly.
