Chapter 316 Undercurrent
Mo Yu decided not to absorb the black light for the time being.

Compared to the black light they had encountered before, this black light looked harmless. More importantly, it possessed Kong Fang.

A black light without independent consciousness may not necessarily pose a threat to him; it depends on the relationship between him and the person it is attached to.

The Demon-Subduing Array in Snow City needs Kong Fang's abilities to maintain it, but he is currently just a mortal. Without the assistance of the Black Light, even with his powerful Sequence ability, he might not be able to support the operation of the entire Demon-Subduing Array.

By then, Snow City will be in grave danger.

He didn't want to see this outcome if he could.

The fall of the city means that the more than 100,000 residents inside will face slaughter by monsters. The destruction of the northern barrier also means that monsters can freely enter the Northern Underworld Kingdom. In this world, the tragedy of monsters massacring villages will be staged in various places.

rewind.

Back when Kong Tian was lying on the stone bed, Mo Yu didn't rest. He began to investigate the underground secret chamber. Besides the inheritance, this was also the Kong family's treasure vault. There were several other rooms if you went in other directions.

Each room contains different items.

The first room was filled with many boxes, which, when opened, contained neatly arranged gold and silver ingots, as well as some glass gems and the like.

Mo Yu was not interested.

This thing doesn't appeal to him; he can only use it as material. As for other derivative timelines... does he need to pay for things?

Open the hiding place.

Calling Amya.

The little girl dragged her slippers out and walked over to Mo Yu first, grabbing the hem of his clothes and pulling it down.

Mo Yu was puzzled, so he squatted down. Amyya leaned in and kissed him without saying a word. She then turned around, took a device, scanned the contents of the vault, and remotely controlled a robot to move the gold and some of the ore away.

Rare metals cannot be overlooked.

Mo Yu touched his cheek. It seemed that the little girl was a bit unhappy about not being able to return to the hideout for more than a week. Before, when they were on the Hope, they never missed a single day of food.

He stepped forward, picked Amya up from behind, kissed her neck, and after indicating that he understood, put her down.

Mo Yu went to check the other rooms.

Enter the second room.

This place is filled with ancient books.

Mo Yu's eyes lit up. These were martial arts techniques, formations, and secret arts—things he needed.

He quickly flipped through these ancient books.

The AI ​​can assist in memory by recording visual information as images. These memories are stored in the brain, meaning they are unaffected by rewinding.

More than a dozen mirror images appeared, and they quickly flipped through the ancient books in the room, not missing a single one, and memorized them all.

Then go to the third room.

This place contains a lot of equipment and props, including various melee weapons, armor, herbs, and hidden weapons. With Amyya around, Mo Yu doesn't care about these things.

After finding nothing else of value, Mo Yu left through the hiding place.

Return to the village.

Taking advantage of Kong Fang's inattention, Mo Yu canceled the mirror image, then walked out from the other side, beckoned Herobella to leave, and the two went hunting outside the village.

Kong Fang woke up when it was already dark.

I can't go back today; I'll have to spend the night here.

Let's prepare dinner.

The two entered the nearby mountains and forests, very high in the air, and took out thermal imaging cameras to search for prey.

The two returned to the village after dark. From afar, they saw a wisp of smoke rising. Kong Tian had already come out, and it must be Kong Fang starting a fire to cook.

Mo Yu and Hai Luo Bella landed on their flying swords.

It turned out that Alpha was the one cooking with the spatula. Kong Fang watched attentively, as if she were learning; after all, she was a general and not particularly skilled in cooking.

Upon seeing the two return.

Kong Fang said embarrassedly, "Mr. Mo, Fairy Hai, Afu knows so much."

Mo Yu asked, feigning nonchalance, "How is Kong Tian?"

Kong Fang said, "Everything is fine, but it's already dark, so we'll probably have to spend the night here."

Kong Tian was in his room, reading by candlelight. He had found a cultivation method in the Kong family's secret chamber that matched his abilities, and he was diligently studying it. Mo Yu did not disturb him.

After preparing a sumptuous dinner, the four of them ate and drank their fill and then went to rest.

Mo Yu took Hai Luo Bella back to their hideout, leaving Alpha outside to keep watch.

He promised Amya.

I'll feed the little girl tonight.

……

Night under the moon.

Deep within the polar snowfields, in a colossal palace made of ice, eerie blue flames burn, their light reflecting off the surrounding ice pillars and illuminating the massive palace.

At the center of the palace stand a series of towering skull thrones.

A handsome man, over 3 meters tall and clad in bone armor, sat on a throne. In his arms was a stunningly beautiful woman with six snow-white fox tails behind her.

The beautiful woman said in a soft voice, "Your Majesty, this time I will personally go to investigate."

"My beloved concubine, you mustn't." The Ice Emperor was very worried, reaching out to gently stroke the beauty's hair, his eyes full of affection.

The beauty rose to her feet and gently stroked the man's cheek, saying, "Your Majesty, this matter concerns our grand plan to rule the Northern Continent. It is no longer a matter of a small Snow City. We must find out how the people in Snow City have cracked our fox clan's transformation technique."

The Ice Emperor sneered, "It's just a small Snow City. If it weren't for cooperating with my beloved concubine's plan, I would have already wiped it out and taken the capital of the Northern Underworld Kingdom."

The beauty said, "Has Your Majesty forgotten my advice? Although humans like to fight among themselves, they will unite against a powerful enemy. Do not act rashly."

The Ice Emperor said, "Then there's no need for my beloved consort to personally risk her life; just send your subordinates to handle it."

The beauty replied, "This matter is of utmost importance, and it would be best if I went to investigate personally. Your Majesty, my people have successfully infiltrated the royal families of the three kingdoms. The next step is crucial, and we absolutely cannot allow any accidents to occur. Now that such a change has taken place in Snow City, we must find out how they broke the transformation spell."

The Ice Emperor said worriedly, "But..."

The beauty reached out and covered the Ice Emperor's mouth, laughing, "Does Your Majesty not believe in my abilities?"

After hesitating, the Ice Emperor said, "If anything happens to my beloved concubine, I will immediately raze Snow City to the ground and slaughter everyone in it."

"Your Majesty~"

The two hugged each other...

Undercurrents surged across the snowy plains.

Under the Ice Emperor's command, the monster communities that had been lying dormant in various places began to gather, centered on Snow City, along the border, and hiding in underground ice caves, awaiting the Ice Emperor's orders.

That evening, the sun was low in the sky.

Orange light bathed the sky and painted the earth.

A caravan arrived from the south and lined up to enter the city at the south gate, where security was stringent. Soldiers and members of the Demon Slayer Bureau took turns checking them, and only after confirming that everything was in order were they allowed to pass one by one.

Jingle bell bell~
Jingle bell bell~
The crisp sound of the bell echoed continuously.

"It's a fox demon! Slay it!"

Inside the caravan, a middle-aged man, his face pale, tried to reason with the experts from the Demon Slayer Division, but his response was a long sword.

puff.

Heads flew up.

The caravan descended into chaos.

The merchants were trembling with fear, and a few angrily questioned the people from the Demon Slayer Bureau.

"This is my uncle, how could he be a demon?... Ah?!"

The questioning abruptly ended.

Because after the head fell to the ground, it emitted a faint white smoke, which instantly transformed into a ferocious fox head, and the headless corpse also turned into a demonic form.

"It really is a monster!"

The merchants were greatly alarmed and began to discuss the matter.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a magnificent carriage in the rear of the procession had its curtain slightly ajar, revealing a stunningly beautiful woman who witnessed everything. Her fists clenched, her gaze icy, while the two maids inside the carriage turned deathly pale.
