Zhang Xiaohou was the best at dealing with winged beasts. Mofan was well aware of Zhang Xiaohou's capabilities, so he was not too worried about the winged beasts on their own.
According to Zhang Xiaohou's plan, the rest of them followed the charcoal-faced soldier and crept closer to the tree hole. At this time, the giant tree had been frozen into a small ice mountain. If one was trapped in this bone-piercing cold for a long time, they would die in less than half a day.
Li Dexin and the others had no choice but to ask the soldier to come out and ask for help.
Luckily, Mofan and the others had not gone too far. Otherwise, the entire Violet Imperial Battalion would have been wiped out in the winged beasts' paradise!
"Screech ~!"
"Li li li ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!!!!!"
Cries of the winged beasts rose and fell. They would occasionally see a few birds with transparent bodies flying past the white leaves.
Mofan used the Shadow Element to hide the group in the shadows of the vines. The Shadow Element was indeed the best Element to hide their presence in such a complicated environment. The low-level Skyice Winged Beasts had no chance of noticing their presence.
"Screech!"
The Skyice Winged Beasts flew away after discovering nothing out of the ordinary.
Some time later, a loud cry came from the dimly lit forest. The Skyice Winged Beasts seemed to be infuriated. They kept flying in a certain direction.
The cries gradually faded into the distance. Mofan asked Apas to observe the surroundings. He withdrew the Shadow Element after making sure the Skyice Winged Beasts were not around.
"Zhang Xiaohou seems to have lured them away," Zhao Manyan said.
"Brother Xiaohou's ability to keep the demon creatures at bay is impressive," Bai Hongfei complimented.
It was important to be able to fight and kill in the wild, but a Mage that could perfectly divert the attention of the demon creatures was the best choice for a team.
"Enough talk, help me melt the ice," Mofan said.
The ice was extremely thick. Even the most powerful spells could not penetrate it. Mofan used his three Soul-grade Flames. The others used their spells to break the ice as quickly as possible.
…
"Dong dong dong!!!!"
Finally, the ice layer was completely broken. Li Dexin and the others in the tree hole did not give up. They continued to attack the ice from the inside.
"I thought you guys would leave me to die," Li Dexin said.
"Can't you say something nicer with that mouth of yours?" Mo Fan was left speechless by Li Dexin.
"Why? Do you want me to thank you?" Li Dexin asked.
"All right, all right. At any rate, we did not come here for free. Let's leave this place first and find a safer place. Those Skyice Winged Birds should be on their way back," Mofan said.
Li Dexin's expression darkened at the mention of the Skyice Winged Bird. He had lost his temper after being bullied by the winged beasts. He quickly went to the hole in the tree and respectfully protected the Young Master of the Army.
It was rare for Mofan to see Li Dexin being so humble. He glanced at the hole in the tree to see who the Violet Imperial Battalion had come all the way here to save.
A skinny person with dirty cheeks came out of the hole. Her hair was disheveled. She was wearing a Violet Imperial Battalion coat, but she was wearing ragged clothes underneath … it was hard to tell how long she had been trapped here.
When the person walked past Mofan, she lifted her gaze and glanced at Mofan. Her eyes suddenly froze.
Mofan was startled, too!
Even though the person looked like a savage, Mo Fan was able to recognize her very quickly!
"Jiang Shaoxu! Why are you here!? "Mofan was shocked. He pointed at Jiang Shaoxu's beggar-like face.
"Mofan! Is this fate arranged by the Heavens? "Jiang Shaoxu was shocked, too. Why would they stumble into Mofan in a place where even ghosts would not come?
"Holy crap, Jiang Shaoxu, you … you … why are you here? My Heavens!" Zhao Manyan screamed when he saw Jiang Shaoxu.
Was the world really that small? Why would they stumble into her in a place like this?
Speaking of which, they had not seen Jiang Shaoxu since they parted ways at the Taklamakan Desert. They had not contacted her, either.
"You know each other?" Li Dexin was surprised.
"We are classmates on the national team," Jiang Shaoxu said.
"Let's leave this place first … let's leave this place first …" Mofan was also in disbelief, but now was not the time to talk about it. Zhang Xiaohou was trying his best to buy them some time to leave this place.
…
The person that the Violet Imperial Battalion had sent to rescue was Jiang Shaoxu!
It was such a surprise. Mofan immediately asked them about it after they found a place to hide.
Mofan and Zhao Manyan came to a realization after asking a few questions.
It turned out that Jiang Shaoxu had not given up looking for her brother after the incident at the Taklamakan Desert. She had also discovered the winged beasts' paradise in the Qinling Mountains through some of her brother's belongings. There was a noble Totem Beast here.
She had traveled around the Qinling Mountains for a long time, and finally found the winged beasts' paradise on Mount Baiba.
However, her strength was limited. She was extremely cautious, but she was still trapped in the end. She had no choice but to summon an inherited artifact to save her life!
"Your family must have a formidable background to be able to mobilize the Violet Imperial Battalion to rescue you!" Mofan exclaimed.
Mofan remembered Zhao Manyan mentioning that Jiang Shaoxu had a formidable background when they were still on the national team … but he had no idea what it was exactly. Jiang Shaoxu had never mentioned anything about her family.
"It's such a relief to meet you two here. If I can't find a suitable husband in the future, I'll just pick one from you two," Jiang Shaoxu smiled.
She was overjoyed. First, she was saved, and second, she had bumped into Mofan and Zhao Manyan again. It was quite interesting to follow them around and stir up trouble.
"What? What did you say?" Li Dexin's voice suddenly appeared.
"I accepted it on behalf of General Li …" the tanned soldier said softly.
"Who's in charge here, me or you? Did I say I was going to help them kill the Demon Tree?" Li Dexin snapped angrily.
"But they did help us," the tanned soldier felt wronged.
"I can still find a way to escape without them. Our mission is to escort Miss Jiang back. It's our duty as soldiers to fulfill our mission!" Li Dexin said sternly.
Jiang Shaoxu glanced at Li Dexin. Mofan said, "Do you have a plan?"
