The leader of the team was a Fifth Level Lower Tier Inner Sanctum disciple, Song Qingshan.
He was muscular and wore a leopard skin coat, giving off a savage vibe.
Many of the Inner Sanctum disciples secretly frowned.
Song Qingshan was too powerful. Among the six of them, Song Qingshan would definitely be the one to return alive.
If he killed the leader of the murderers first, they would lose some merit.
"Song Qingshan, I'll leave the team to you. You must capture and kill all the murderers," the Third Elder solemnly instructed.
Song Qingshan cupped his fists and respectfully accepted the order, his voice booming like a bell, "Yes! But I have a request. "
"Speak!" The Third Elder nodded.
Song Qingshan glanced at Su Yu coldly, his finger pointing at him, "I want to replace him! This mission is dangerous, I cannot bring a burden along. "
Everyone was silent. Su Yu was only a Third Level Lower Tier Holy King, the rest were Fourth Level Peak Holy Kings. Replacing him would increase the overall strength of the team.
A few disciples who wanted to join the team but had already filled their spots, their spirits lifted, their eyes shining.
The Third Elder also had the intention to replace Su Yu. But he had personally promised Su Yu to join, how could he go back on his word?
"Su Yu is a rising star of the Inner Sanctum, you older generation disciples should support him. Just treat this as a training opportunity for him."
Hearing this, Song Qingshan glared at Su Yu with disgust.
Of the six team members, other than Li Hao, who had ulterior motives, the rest were frowning.
Su Yu's gaze was calm, silently enduring the strange looks.
"Since everything is ready, let's go," the Third Elder announced.
The team left the faction and headed straight for the ambush.
Three days later, the Wolong Snowfield.
The Wolong Snowfield was a snowfield that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles.
It had existed for tens of thousands of years. The snowflakes that filled the sky never changed.
The accumulated snow formed transparent icicles, like a vast mirror, reflecting the sunlight.
In the silent world of ice and snow, six people appeared in a glacier canyon.
Their expressions were grave as they stood there for a long time.
Broken limbs and remains were a shocking sight.
Bright red blood splattered across the canyon.
The coldness of the Wolong Snowfield preserved the tragedy of that day.
"Not even their bones remained... what exactly happened to them?" Song Qingshan squatted down to examine the remains below him. Only half a limb was left, the rest had been gnawed away.
Recalling the huge claw mark on Wu Qingzhou's chest, everyone's heart shuddered.
Other than humans, there might also be demonic beasts among the attackers.
"Su Yu! Immediately investigate the situation within a fifty-kilometer radius! "Song Qingshan did not raise his head as he ordered coldly.
Su Yu furrowed his brows slightly, but he still flew to the top of the canyon and looked down from the sky.
Ever since the Red Dragon had been baptized, Su Yu's eyesight had undergone a qualitative change.
In the past, he could only observe the situation within a radius of 20 li, but now he could detect the movements of plants within a radius of 50 li.
He scanned his surroundings. Fifty li around him was dead silent.
Other than the pure white snow, a few snowfield hares, wild wolves, and wreckage, there was nothing else.
He flew back and said indifferently, "There are no signs of enemies within fifty kilometers."
"Are you trying to tell me that you can see the situation fifty li away with just a glance from the sky?" Song Qingshan's bell-like eyes were filled with anger as he glared at him.
Su Yu nodded calmly. "Yes."
The other team members looked at each other and frowned.
"Su Yu! You'd better be aware that you're a burden. Since you're shamelessly following us, you should be prepared to accept orders! "
"Humph! If you feel wronged, you can scram back! There's no need to be perfunctory here. "
"Team leader, for our safety, it's better to expel Su Yu from the team. I dare not entrust my safety to him if he's so perfunctory and careless."
Clearly, everyone thought Su Yu was being perfunctory.
Song Qingshan's expression was calm. "Su Yu, I advise you to …"
"Thirty miles to the northeast, there's a snow wolf chewing on a human bone, it should be one of our disciples … Fifteen miles to the south, there are two snow hares that fell into an ice ditch … Nine miles to the west, there's … there's something! There are a few fresh footprints! "
Su Yu stood in the air, looking at his surroundings as he spoke. But when he looked to the west, his expression changed!
Only after a closer look did he realize something was amiss!
Whoosh —
Without waiting for Song Qingshan and the rest to react, Su Yu flew to the west!
Leaving behind a group of dumbfounded people.
"He can really see that far?" One of the disciples was incredulous.
Looking at Su Yu's receding figure, another sneered. "I think he's taking the opportunity to leave. He knows he's unpopular in the team, so he's trying to find a way out and leave the team."
Song Qingshan did not believe that Su Yu could see that far, but as the leader, he could not let his emotions affect his decisions. He said calmly, "It's better to believe it than not. Follow him and we'll find out the truth!"
Whoosh, whoosh —
Five piercing sounds reverberated throughout the ice mountain valley.
A moment later, nine miles away, Su Yu stood high up in the sky, his arms crossed as he pondered.
The disciples who had followed him took a closer look, their expressions changing.
There was a row of footprints on the snowy plains!
A pair of human feet, and a pair of … giant demonic beast footprints!
The footprints were the size of a small house, with remnants of a thick demonic energy.
"There really are footprints! His eyesight can really see up to a fifty-mile radius? "Shreds of shock spread through the crowd.
Everyone's gazes toward Su Yu gradually changed!
In the vast snowy plains, if one could see up to fifty miles, regardless of whether it was searching for the enemy or defending against an unknown enemy, its usefulness was immeasurable!
In terms of importance, he was even more important than a Fourth Level Peak Holy King!
Turning his head to glance at the crowd, Su Yu cupped his fists. "My abilities are weak, so I will not burden you seniors. Let's go our separate ways, farewell."
Saying this, Su Yu followed the footprints to search.
"Eh …" The crowd panicked. Such terrifying eyesight was irreplaceable for their safety and the ability to capture enemies. How could he just leave like that?
But no one dared to ask him to stay. Along the way, they all had looks of disgust. They had even ordered Su Yu to leave the team without hesitation.
Now that Su Yu had really left, how could they ask him to stay?
Song Qingshan's face turned green and red. He wanted to ask Su Yu to stay, but he could not bring himself to do so. He could only grunt. "No sense of teamwork! If he wants to walk alone, we'll grant him his wish. Don't come back and beg us! "
The faces of the rest of the people were burning.
It seemed like Su Yu had been forced to leave by them?
The ones with no sense of teamwork were them, not Su Yu.
"Let's go! Follow the footprints! "Song Qingshan suppressed his anger, leading the team forward.
But half a day later.
In front of a canyon, the wind howled. The snowflakes covered the entire sky, covering all the footprints. In half a day, they had lost track of Su Yu, as well as the man and the demonic beast.
"Bad luck!" Song Qingshan was extremely angry that Su Yu had left the team.
"Team leader, look within the canyon, there's a weak fire," one of the team members with sharp eyes quietly reminded.
At that moment, it was almost evening. The faint yellow fire, under the reflection of the white snow, was emitted weakly.
"It could be Su Yu, but … it could also be traces of the enemy! One of you stay here. If there's an emergency, be alert immediately. The rest of you, follow me inside! "Song Qingshan calmly instructed.
The four of them carefully walked into the depths of the canyon, arriving at the place where the fire was weak.
It was a natural stone cave. Outside the cave, the cold wind howled, piercing to the bone.
Inside the cave, it was peaceful, warm like spring. The fire was warm and cozy.
But there was no one inside!
"Could it have been left behind by Su Yu? The fire is still there, I believe he must be nearby. "There was no one inside, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Song Qingshan looked around cautiously. After confirming that it was not a trap, he coldly grunted. "Who cares about him? It's getting late. After a day of chasing, we'll rest here tonight. "
Everyone nodded. The sky was already dark, and it would be difficult to track the enemy. They could only wait until tomorrow.
The group entered. Before entering, Song Qingshan looked at the entrance of the canyon. Amidst the wind and snow, he could faintly see a figure. He shouted, "Zhao Dan, come in!"
But the figure did not move.
His voice was buried in the howling wind.
Song Qingshan was annoyed. If Su Yu was here, he could see the entire situation. Would it be so troublesome?
He opened his mouth to shout again, but he heard a tinkling laugh. "Hehe, he might not be able to hear you."
Patter —
A bloody ball of flesh fell from Song Qingshan's head, landing in front of his feet.
Looking closely, it was actually a heart that was still beating lightly, and it was rolling with hot air!
At the entrance of the canyon, the unmoving figure had also fallen!
Zhao Dan had been killed without a sound or trace!
Before he died, he did not even have the chance to scream. His heart had been dug out!
Who could be so terrifying?
Looking up, a lady in a snow-white robe floated in the air.
Her face was beautiful and delicate, her figure alluring. Her loose snow-white robe could not hide her wonderful figure.
She should have been a beautiful lady in the snowy night, but the blood on her hands added a sense of eeriness to her beauty!
But what shocked Song Qingshan was not the lady herself, but the giant creature beneath her feet!
It was a giant Snow Lion with abilities as high as Fifth Level Lower Tier Holy King!
The Snow Lion's mouth was filled with blood, and it was extremely fierce. Its eyes were filled with a cruel light.
"Interesting. I left for a while, and there was a group of people staying in my cave. You must be the disciples sent by the Liuxian faction to investigate." The lady's eyes were cold, and she laughed meaningfully.
"Not good! Get out of the cave! "When Song Qingshan saw the terrifying Snow Lion, he realized that something was wrong and roared.
Trapped in the cave, they could not fight. They might be trapped inside.
He himself turned into a sharp arrow, flying out of the cave.
Of the four people in the cave, Li Hao was the most vigilant, and thus the last to enter.
Hearing this, he did not hesitate and followed Song Qingshan to escape.
"Hehe, it's too late to escape now." The lady's expression turned cold.
Roar —
With a furious roar, the Snow Lion beneath her opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of blue gas.
It looked like flames, but it was actually a ball of blue ice flame!!!
Creak —
The bonfire in the cave was immediately extinguished!
At the same time, a thick layer of blue ice covered the entrance of the cave, gradually freezing inwards. It wanted to freeze Song Qingshan and the rest to death in the cave.
"Not good! Quick, circulate your spirit energy and break the blue ice flame! "Song Qingshan did not manage to escape. With a furious roar, he used his spirit energy to break the ice.
Everyone, including Li Hao, had a serious expression as they attacked together to break the ice!
But the ice was extremely terrifying. In an instant, the combined strength of the five of them could only slow down the speed of the ice's freezing!
Song Qingshan was filled with regret. If Su Yu had been in the team, he would have discovered the lady and her terrifying mount earlier, and they would not have been trapped here.
The rest of the disciples were also complaining, their hearts filled with despair.
Seeing that they were stubbornly resisting, the lady's beautiful eyes turned cold. "Hmph! Struggle before death! "
Her lips curled into a cold smile. "That's fine. Ever since I obtained this item, I have not had the chance to try it out. I'll use you guys to test it out."
Whoosh —
The lady took out an extremely ancient jade box from her robes. It was mottled and filled with traces of time.
In the jade box, there was a drop of extremely cold liquid. It looked like a crystal, but also like a liquid. It emitted cold air, causing the temperature of the valley to drop by thirty percent!
"This is one of the treasures that your Liuxian faction dug out from the abyss of Wutong, the Ice Crystal Marrow! It condenses extremely cold air! " The lady's face was filled with mockery. "I have to say, your Liuxian faction has really discovered an impressive relic. To think that there are so many complete ancient treasures!"
The lady's mocking expression became even more intense. "Unfortunately, everything has gone to the benefit of my Empire of Darkness!"
This lady was from the Empire of Darkness!
Creak —
The lady flicked her fingers lightly. The drop of Ice Crystal Marrow flew towards the entrance of the cave.
Crack —
The terrifying cold air caused a large area to freeze in the cave!
The state that Song Qingshan and the rest had managed to maintain with great difficulty was instantly broken!
Ah —
With a horrible shriek, a Fourth Level Peak Holy King was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture!
Song Qingshan gasped. What exactly was the Ice Crystal Marrow? Just getting close to it had such power. If it were to shatter …
A numbing feeling welled up in his heart!
But at that moment!
Whoosh, whoosh —
A few crystalline, almost transparent threads descended from the sky!
Caught off guard, the threads wrapped around the Ice Crystal Marrow and flew into the sky!
At the same time, a light laugh floated into his ears. "Wouldn't it be a pity to waste such a treasure? I'll accept it! "
Raising his head, he saw a silver-haired, purple-robed figure standing under the beautiful moonlight.
In his palm was the Ice Crystal Marrow.
The terrifying cold air did not harm him at all. Instead, it was completely absorbed into his body.
It was Su Yu!
With Su Yu's eyesight, he had long discovered the lady and the Snow Lion. He was hiding fifty miles away, observing cautiously.
It was only at this moment that he had the opportunity to show himself.
"There's still a fish that escaped the net!" The lady was deeply surprised.
Why was this Liuxian faction disciple acting alone?
Song Qingshan seemed to have grasped onto a life-saving straw. He was overjoyed. "Junior Su! Please save us!! "
"Hmph! A mere Third Level Holy King wants to ruin my plans? "The lady mocked. She then flew into the sky.
With a calm expression, Su Yu muttered softly, "Fourth Level Lower Tier Holy King, five honor points for killing, ten honor points for capturing … Unfortunately …"
Glancing at the terrifying Snow Lion below, Su Yu gave up on the idea of capturing it alive.
The lady's first move was a legacy level cultivation technique. Moreover, it was Stage One Upper Class!
Her hand was like a snow-white jade dragon, piercing through the air. Like lightning, she grabbed Su Yu's chest. She wanted to pull out Su Yu's heart!
Just like Zhao Dan at the entrance of the canyon, after being frozen by the Snow Lion, her heart had been clawed out by this vicious lady!
Su Yu's expression was cold. With a flip of his palm, a long spear of purple thunder flames and azure ice flames formed in his hands.
"Heavenly Punishment of Ice and Thunder!" Su Yu let out a low grunt. The long spear of purple and azure flames contained a terrifying power. It turned into a beam of light and pierced through the void.
"What, half divine grade Holy Decree? The same Holy Decree realm as that demonic woman! "The lady's cold smile froze. It was replaced by a touch of fear as she screamed and retreated.
But it was already too late!
It shook the heavens and shook the earth.
With a shrill scream, the lady from the Empire of Darkness was pierced through her chest. Her heart was shattered!
Her life was instantly extinguished!
Killing a Fourth Level Lower Tier Holy King with one move!
Whoosh —
A Divine Ice Thread flew over and coiled around his body.
Su Yu quickly searched and found two jade boxes that were filled with the vicissitudes of time.
Could it be the treasures that they stole from the abyss of Wutong?!
