A jade plate floated in front of him.
The light on the jade plate grew dimmer and weaker.
It was Jin Lie’s life tablet; the light on the tablet symbolizes the life of its owner.
When the lights went out completely, it meant that Jin Lie had died.
The Shadow Warrior opened his eyes, stared at the jade tablet, and remained silent for a long time.
“dead.” His voice was very soft, but every word seemed to come out from between his teeth. “Thirty-seven people, all dead.”
He stood up, walked out of the main tent, and looked out over the vast expanse of icy plains.
There, the fluctuations of the Ice Field Ruins had disappeared, but his intuition told him that those who finished off Jin Lie were fleeing towards the Eastern Region.
“Convey this order,” his voice was cold. “Gather all the troops and chase them.”
“Master, which way should we chase them?” asked the cultivator behind us.
The Shadow Warrior’s lips curled slightly. “Eastern Region. They are going to the Valley of Freedom to look for the Resistance Army.”
The cultivator behind him changed his expression. “My Lord, the Valley of Freedom is the territory of the human resistance army, we”
“I know,” Shadow Warrior interrupted, “so we can’t let them in. We have to stop them before they reach Freedom Valley.”
He turned around and entered the main tent.
“Courier.”
“There is!”
“Inform Alliance Leader that the person possessing the power of chaos is in the region of the Sixteenth Heaven’s Ice Plains, and ask Alliance Leader to send reinforcements.”
“Yes!”
The Shadow Warrior sat in the main tent, his fingers tapping gently on the armrest.
The sound echoed in the empty tent like the tolling of a death knell.
“David The Attractive Power of Chaos.” His voice was gentle, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
David and his four friends traveled quickly across the icy plains throughout the night.
When dawn broke, they finally emerged from the ice plains.
The ice beneath our feet turned into gray-black rock, and the piercing cold slowly dissipated, replaced by a dry wind that carried the scent of sand and dust.
The two moons in the sky had set, and in their places stood a golden sun.
Sunlight shone on the barren land, turning everything a golden red color.
David stopped and looked back.
The ice slowly receded behind us, turning into a gray-white line.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but did not dare to let his guard down; The Shadow Warriors were still chasing them, and they were not safe yet.
“Let’s rest for a while.” David sat on a rock and took out some pills and crystals from his storage ring to share with everyone.
The long journey had drained each of them, and they needed to restore their energy.
Bing Wuhen sat beside him, took the pill, but did not eat it. “Mr. Chen, are you sure resistance will help us?”
David looked at him. “I’m not sure. But we still have to try.”
Bing Wuhen was silent for a moment, then asked, “What if the resistance doesn’t want to help us?”
David smiled and said, “Then let’s persuade them.”
Bingxue sat aside, hugging her knees, looking at the sky in the distance.
There was a hint of confusion in his eyes, but also a hint of hope.
After thousands of years of freezing, the outside world has changed.
He didn’t know what awaited him, but he knew that as long as the Palace Master and David were there, he had nothing to fear.
Bingfeng Han stood on a huge rock, staring into the distance.
He held an ice spear in his hand, its tip shimmering with a faint blue light under the sunlight.
His eyes shone brightly, as bright as the stars at night.
Jiang Xuelan walked over to David and sat down. “David, what do you think is in the Valley of Freedom?”
David thought for a moment, “I hope so.”
Jiang Xuelan looked at him without saying a word.
He knew that the hope David spoke of was not only the hope of the resistance army, but also the hope of all races oppressed by the gods.
David stood up, brushed the dust off his clothes, and said, “Let’s go. It’s still a long way to go.”
The five people stood up and continued their journey towards the Eastern Region.
The five people walked for three more days in the wilderness.
The gray-black rocks underfoot were gradually replaced by sparse grass, which then gradually turned into low bushes.
The air was no longer dry, but carried a slight scent of damp earth.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the two moons appear alternately in the night, like two silent sentinels.
David said very little throughout the trip.
His gaze remained fixed forward, occasionally glancing back at the path he had taken.
The pursuing Shadow Soldiers did not appear, but he knew that was not because they had managed to break away from their opponents, but rather because those opponents were waiting, waiting for them to let their guard down, waiting for them to reveal their weakness.
