Chapter 282 A Meeting?!
at the same time.

Ying Bing finally stepped out of the ice cave that the Snow Maiden had long forbidden her to leave.

The view suddenly opened up, and all around was an endless expanse of white snow, the extremely cold air pure and biting.

In this icy and snowy realm, she clearly felt that the spiritual energy within her body had become unusually active.

This is not an illusion.

This near-death experience was not entirely without its benefits—

The Snow Woman used a special method that not only perfectly cured her congenital physical defects, but also returned all the life force that had been devoured and accumulated by her constitution.

As a result of misfortune, her strength broke through the shackles of the commander level and directly jumped to the monarch level.

At this moment, as she gazed at the gradually clearer outline of the Snow Wolf Clan's encampment, Ying Bing felt a long-lost sense of tension welling up in her heart.

Before he fell into a coma last time, the situation in Longxia Kingdom was extremely dire.

The five void gates were simultaneously attacked by the demons, and the spatial gate of the imperial capital would inevitably bear the strongest impact.

Her father...

She didn't even dare to think about it!
Furthermore, she could not be certain whether the image of Gu Xing she saw before losing consciousness was a hallucination from her near-death experience.

Logically speaking, Gu Xing should have been in seclusion in the Beast Taming Sacred Pool, breaking through to the Commander level, and there was absolutely no way he could have appeared on the battlefield of Lin Yuan City.

but……

In the moment before I closed my eyes, his image was so clear and real.

Ying Bing took a deep breath of the cold air, her eyes gradually hardening.

Whether it was an illusion or not, her top priority now was to find a way to leave the snow country.

Her trip to the Snow Wolf Clan wasn't just to inquire about the current situation in the Dragon Summer Kingdom; she also had another purpose—

To find a way to secretly leave the snow country.

Since the Snow Woman wouldn't allow her to leave without permission, she decided to find a way herself.

Although the snow woman had saved her life, she had more important things to do at the moment.

Only after confirming the safety of the Dragon Xia Kingdom could she return with peace of mind to repay the Snow Maiden's kindness.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

Now that her level has broken through to the King level, Ying Bing is moving very fast.

The journey ended at her feet in almost fifteen minutes.

The Snow Wolf Clan members stationed at the entrance to the Snow Wolf Clan's territory did not stop Ying Bing when they saw her.

During this time, the news that this human was favored by the Snow Maiden had already spread throughout the entire Snow Wolf Clan, so naturally no one was unaware of Ying Bing.

However, while they didn't prevent her from entering the camp, the snow wolves wouldn't let her roam freely.

Just as Ying Bing was about to head to the most conspicuous igloo in the center of the camp, her path was blocked by two snow wolf warriors.

"This is the territory of the Snow Wolf Clan, and outsiders are not allowed to approach."

Upon seeing this, Ying Bing frowned slightly.

She had previously tried to inquire about news from several Snow Wolf tribesmen at the camp, but let alone the current situation of the Dragon Xia Kingdom...
They knew very little about the situation outside the Snow Country.

What puzzled her even more was that these snow wolves seemed to harbor a subtle, albeit imperceptible, hostility towards her.

But it was clearly the first time she had ever seen them.

Left with no other option, she decided to ask a member of the clan who held a high position, but she was stopped from even getting close.

"I would like to meet your Lady Xue Li."

Through fragmented information, she learned that Xue Li was now mainly in charge of all affairs of the Snow Wolf Clan, so she directly mentioned that name.

However, the guarding snow wolves exchanged a glance, then resolutely refused:
"No, Lady Xue Li has important matters to attend to and is not available to receive guests."

Ying Bing frowned even more deeply.

The Snow Maiden had rarely allowed her to leave the ice cave. If she still gained nothing from the Snow Wolf Clan this time, wouldn't it be a waste of this hard-won opportunity?

"Could you make an exception?"

"no!"

Seeing that the snow wolves showed no sign of leniency, Ying Bing clenched her fists tightly—she absolutely could not miss this opportunity.

Since the other party refused to let her see Xue Li, she had no choice but to try anyway.

"Mystic Frost Phoenix!"

In an instant, the Frost Phoenix was summoned by her, its icy wings unfurling and exuding a chilling aura.

However, before she could give the order to act, the door of the igloo suddenly opened, and Xue Li, whom she was looking for, walked out on her own.

"Ying Bing, why aren't you staying by the Snow Maiden's side? What are you doing here in my Snow Wolf Clan?"

Xue Li's tone was not friendly, after all, in her opinion, it was Ying Bing's appearance that had diverted the attention of Lady Xue Nu.

Ying Bing, however, paid no heed to the hostility in her words. Upon seeing the person in question, she went straight to the point and asked:

"Lady Xue Li, I would like to inquire about the Dragon Xia Kingdom!"

"Longxia Kingdom?"

Xue Li frowned slightly, originally not intending to answer Ying Bing's question.

Seeing Ying Bing's worried expression, he softened and said:

"I don't know much about the Dragon Xia Kingdom! However, I can confirm that the country should be fine."

Every time they went out to help Lady Yuki collect information, the place they visited most often was the Holy See.

In addition, they had not deliberately inquired about information from the outside world.

Therefore, they knew very little about the Longxia Kingdom.

However, one thing is certain: the Dragon Xia Kingdom is safe and sound.

Otherwise, they would have already heard rumors while they were still in the Papacy.

Upon hearing that Longxia Kingdom was safe, Ying Bing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She had originally wanted to inquire about Gu Xing's whereabouts, but...
It's possible that Gu Xing isn't that famous among humans.

So they abandoned the idea.

After asking Xue Li a few more questions, Ying Bing thanked her and turned to leave.

Knowing that nothing was wrong in Longxia Kingdom, she was relieved.

As for how to leave the Snow Country, she certainly couldn't ask Xue Li about it.

however.

Unbeknownst to Ying Bing, inside the ice house that was separated from her by only a wall—

Gu Xing was writing furiously at his desk, recording the touching stories from his memory one by one.

Its purpose.
It was all to please a certain shut-in girl.

However, just as Ying Bing turned to leave, Gu Xing suddenly looked up from his desk.

Just a moment ago, he seemed to sense a familiar presence...

Like Ying Bing.

However, he had previously asked Xue Li, who clearly stated that Ying Bing was still receiving treatment in the Snow Maiden's Cave.

Therefore, he simply assumed it was a momentary illusion.

Thinking of Ying Bing, Gu Xing unconsciously tightened his fingers.

I wonder how badly that girl's injuries are progressing...

A hint of worry, difficult to conceal, flashed across his eyes.

at the same time--

In an extremely remote corner on the border of the Snow Country, a fragment of space suddenly peeled off.

A dark, void passage is slowly taking shape without anyone noticing.

One after another, incredibly creepy insects began to migrate towards the center of the entire snow country.

Wherever it passed, ice and snow melted, spiritual energy dried up, and the world seemed to die.

 I need to take a break so I can work on the outline and clarify the plot. Thank you for your understanding!
