As Ling Ling had speculated, the Frosty Ancient Eagles were mainly collecting the food they had caught half a month ago. They were saving the latest food for the winter.
Everyone was frozen in the ice. The ice was transparent, like a layer of tempered glass. The Frosty Ancient Eagles were very close to them. They could see their every move clearly.
Yassen, Zhao Kang, Bertan, and the others were relieved when they saw the Frosty Ancient Eagles digging the food out of the thick ice. It seemed like the plan was working. Otherwise, they would be fighting the Frosty Ancient Eagles with their lives on the line.
They could not move their bodies in the ice, but they could still blink their eyes. Mu Ningxue did not freeze them completely. She still gave them some space to move around, just in case something unexpected happened.
Mofan had been observing the situation. He noticed a few eagles roaming in the area behind Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu.
Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu could not turn around. They had no idea the Frosty Ancient Eagles were right behind them. Mofan kept rolling his eyes and communicated with Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu through the window.
Zhao Manyan was confused when he saw Mofan's actions. Had the ice in Mofan's head melted?
Are you crazy? Why are you rolling your eyes? Up, down, left, right? Do you think you're going to get thirty lives if you keep rolling your eyes like that?
"Behind you, behind you, the Frosty Ancient Eagles are digging the ice!" Mofan wished his eyes could transmit his thoughts to the two idiots!
The Frosty Ancient Eagles were digging the ice with their claws. The stronger ones were acting strangely. They were not collecting the food they had caught half a month ago. They were going for the fresh food instead!
"Apas, can you drive the three eagles away?" Mofan communicated with Apas through their Contract.
Apas was frozen beside Mofan. She lifted her head with difficulty and told Mofan with her eyes that he could not!
"What's going on? Aren't they supposed to keep the fresh food for the winter? These eagles are not following the rules!" Mofan murmured.
"Many demon creatures like fresh food. Even though the Frosty Ancient Eagles are supposed to keep the food for the winter, don't forget that the Frosty Ancient Eagles have nobles among them. They don't need to eat the food that has been frozen for half a month. Therefore, they should be using fresh food to please the nobles … the little girl didn't think of that!" Apas communicated with Mofan through their Contract.
"Why didn't you say so?" Mofan asked.
"So what if I say it? Is there a better way? Maybe Lingling has already thought of it, but she didn't say it."
"Use your Psychic Voice to tell Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu."
"I'll try my best, but being frozen will seriously affect my ability."
…
Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu soon received a message from Apas. She told them that the eagles behind them were planning to treat them as food for the nobles!
Zhao Manyan finally realized that the eagles were digging the ice behind them. A huge part of the ice had already shattered.
Guan Yu's eyes darted around in fear. Are you kidding me? There are so many fresh food here. Why are they not eating bear meat or beef? They only have a few ounces of meat!
"Calm down, calm down, don't be reckless!" Zhao Manyan told Guan Yu his thoughts with his eyes.
Guan Yu replied with his eyes, "Sure, let's fight it out with them!"
While the two of them were conversing, Apas sent a mental message to Nie Yan.
"Mu Ningxue asked you not to move. Don't use your energy."
Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu could hear claws digging at the back of their heads, but they could not see anything. They kept feeling like their heads were going to be penetrated by sharp claws in the next second. How could they not worry when Mu Ningxue asked them not to resist?
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
The sound was getting closer. Zhao Manyan and Guan Yu would be soaked in cold sweat by now. They never thought a day like this would come when they would be shivering in the freezer like iced ribbonfish!
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
The sound of the eagles' claws digging grew louder. Zhao Manyan was on the verge of losing his patience.
No, their heads were surely going to be penetrated. He had to use his Light Element to melt the ice and fight the eagles!
"Squeak!"
Chef Eagle suddenly let out an exasperated cry. It flapped its wings and flew to another piece of thick ice. As though it was venting its anger, it started pecking at the ice layer. Not long after, a huge hole was dug out, and a steel spike bull was smashed into pieces!
Zhao Manting and Guan Yu happened to witness the scene. They could feel a stronger chill surging inside their bodies than the ice outside.
It was obvious that the Frosty Ancient Eagles could easily break the ice with their sharp claws, but since they were frozen by Mu Ningxue, and Mu Ningxue's Ice Element was very advanced, the ice was as tough as metal. The eagles were unable to break through it. They gave up on attacking Guan Yu and Zhao Manyan and turned their attention to the Steel Spike Bull covered in blood.
Luckily, Mu Ningxue had asked them not to move. If they had melted the ice, they would have been turned into minced meat, just like the Steel Spike Bull!
That was too f * * king exciting!
They would never come back to Tianshan Mountain again!
"AHHHH!"
Suddenly, a cry of agony echoed in the air. A Frosty Ancient Eagle with a dazzling crest had brought one of Xing Hui's subordinates out as a fresh ingredient as a tribute.
Xing Hui's subordinate screamed. The crowned eagle used its sharp beak to pierce through all four of his limbs, causing this Mu Family member to be unable to resist in the slightest. In the end, he was dragged out of the ice cave alive, and sent to the highest point of the Ice Cloud Eagle Nest.
Many people saw what happened to the Mu Clan member. Their eyes widened as they prayed in their hearts that they would not be chosen by the eagles!
Many of them began to regret accepting Mu Ningxue's ice.
Guan Yu and Zhao Manyan only managed to survive because Mu Ningxue's ice was sturdy enough that the eagles were unable to penetrate it. The eagles thought it was food that had been frozen for a long time, so they chose other fresh ingredients instead …
