Chapter 377: Chapter 377

Shangguan Xiao was frozen by the Ice Pearls. After finally thawing out, she patted her stiff arms and legs.

"So cold, so cold, so cold! I’m almost frozen solid!"

This time she was determined to capture Ming Jiu, lock him in a cage, make him beg for mercy – she wanted to conquer him thoroughly!

Just then, she suddenly felt a huge vibration from the snow mountain. She looked up, her face pale, her pupils dilating inch by inch. Snow was cascading down from the towering mountain above! Its might was overwhelming, instilling fear.

Shangguan Xiao turned to run, but her newly thawed body was slow to react.

She ran awkwardly for a few steps, unable to outrun the avalanche. As the snow roared down, the massive snowball knocked her and Guang Lie to the ground.

She was buried by the avalanche...

Si Yan, without her knowledge, had already frozen Shangguan Xiao three times.

The temperature at the top of the snow mountain was getting colder, and the snowstorm fiercer. There were fewer and fewer living creatures on the mountain. Only stones and the vast white snow remained. The cold air gathered, making the place even colder. Ming Ji tightened Si Yan’s fur skirt and held her hand, blowing warm breath on it and rubbing it.

"The temperature on the mountain is very low. Tell me if you can’t bear it."

Si Yan’s gaze softened. Even now, she felt like it was all a dream. For so long, she had been accustomed to facing difficulties alone. Now, with her brother’s protection, it all seemed somewhat unreal.

A smile slowly lit up Si Yan’s eyes.

"I’m fine. I can keep going."

The Frost Flower was not far away. The two struggled to climb to the mountaintop through the heavy snow. They headed towards the soon-to-bloom Frost Flower, battling the blizzard at the peak.

"It’s about to bloom," Ming Ji said excitedly. "We’ll guard it here. It should open in another hour or two."

The cold on the mountaintop was intense. Ming Ji picked up a few sticks of wood to start a fire for warmth. Although the flames were not strong, they at least dispelled some of the chill.

Si Yan leaned against Ming Ji for warmth. Ming Ji, while tending the fire, complained with disgust, "Look at you, how thin you are. Has that snake Beastman not been feeding you meat?" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs noⅴelfire.net

Si Yan felt a little embarrassed and turned her head to look down the snow mountain. The scenery was exquisite; snow-covered peaks glistened under the sunlight. She closed her eyes, intending to rest for a while.

Just then, the vengeful Shangguan Xiao and Guang Lie, having endured many tribulations, also reached the mountaintop.

Seeing Ming Ji embracing Si Yan, Shangguan Xiao found the sight infuriating.

Si Yan and Ming Ji immediately stood up. Si Yan saw at a glance two thinly dressed, repulsive-looking people.

Hatred filled Ming Ji’s eyes. Shangguan Xiao. He hadn’t gone looking for her, and yet she had come to him!

Shangguan Xiao gritted her teeth. She hadn’t endured so much hardship coming to this barren world just to see Ming Jiu embracing another girl!

Si Yan asked Ming Ji, "Is she here to pick a fight?"

Ming Ji coughed lightly and nodded.

Si Yan took out a handful of Ice Pearls from her space. In an instant, all the Ice Pearls flew towards the two people in front of her. Shangguan Xiao sensed danger, but her frozen body was slow to respond. In that moment, all the Ice Pearls hit Shangguan Xiao and Guang Lie squarely. The two were instantly frozen into huge ice blocks.

Si Yan clapped her hands. The Ice Pearls were really useful; she would pry some more off after they descended the mountain.

Ming Ji lowered his head and gently touched her hair, smiling fondly.

However, just then, large cracks appeared on the ice block freezing Shangguan Xiao. She gritted her teeth and shouted, "Ming Jiu, you actually helped others gang up on me! I want you dead!!"

Divine Power suddenly surged from Shangguan Xiao’s body. The Heart of the World in the Beast World suppressed foreign divine power to one-tenth of its strength, but even that was not weak.

Ming Ji swept Si Yan into his arms and quickly retreated.

Si Yan asked indifferently, "Who is she?"

Cold killing intent filled Ming Ji’s eyes. "She is a Divine Monarch from the Divine Temple. She is the enemy behind the annihilation of my clan."

Shangguan Xiao chuckled. "That’s right. Ming Jiu, how does it feel to lose everything? If you don’t listen to me, I can make the people you care about disappear again!"

After Shangguan Xiao finished speaking, she felt an intense, bone-chilling killing intent bearing down on her! Si Yan no longer had the languid appearance she’d had when with Ming Ji; her eyes suddenly turned sharp.

"Night God Ming Jiu’s family—it was you who harmed them?" Si Yan asked, her eyes cold.

Shangguan Xiao pointed at Ming Ji, trembling with anger. "Of course, it was me! He brought me disgrace. If I can’t have him, I’ll destroy him!"

"It wasn’t just his family I destroyed. I also destroyed his world. I destroyed a whole world!!!"

"Afraid yet? If you’re scared, you’d better leave Ming Jiu. I might even spare you an intact corpse!"

"You deserve to die." Si Yan’s eyes were profound; she had never felt such a strong desire to kill someone before. She took out her snake scales. Stepping on the snow, riding the wind, her figure flashed, and she was immediately close to Shangguan Xiao, her cold snake scales almost at her neck.

However, just at that moment, Guang Lie, who had been silent, appeared from the side and blocked Si Yan with one hand. Si Yan was sent reeling backward. She touched the ground with the tip of her foot, and her figure suddenly flashed. As she turned, her Psionic Gun was aimed at the two people in front of her!

Guang Lie sprinted forward. Si Yan fired several shots from her Wood-based Psionic Gun. The Wood-based Special Ability hit Guang Lie, and gorgeous roses pierced through his body! He spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at the woman before him in amazement.

This was the lowly Beast World, yet such power existed here?

Suddenly, a tremendous rumbling came from the top of the snow mountain, followed by a massive ice wall rolling down from the summit, separating Si Yan and Guang Lie.

The moment his vision was blocked, Guang Lie had taken only a few steps when he saw a dark, sinister, and terrifying power emerging from the ground, forcing him to retreat repeatedly.

Shangguan Xiao, her face ferocious, shouted from the side, "Guang Lie, kill them! Kill them now!!"

Guang Lie continued to retreat, but Ming Ji appeared from the shadows behind him, a dark force binding him.

With Guang Lie’s obstruction gone, Si Yan immediately switched her target to Shangguan Xiao.

Her goal was very clear. She wanted her dead!

She quickly armed her hands with snake scales and slashed towards Shangguan Xiao. Screaming, Shangguan Xiao pulled something from her pocket. Several ice spikes appeared before her and shot towards Si Yan. Si Yan immediately changed direction, leaping back repeatedly to dodge the ice spikes.

"Si Yan! Be careful!"

There wasn’t much space to stand on the summit. Seeing Si Yan nearing the edge of the cliff, Ming Ji immediately used his dark power to block Guang Lie and ran towards her!

Si Yan turned again, her movements extremely agile, and lunged to kill Shangguan Xiao.

But just at that moment, a huge, purple snake head suddenly appeared behind Shangguan Xiao. A ferocious, cold-blooded snake Beastman—a creature that should never exist in the Polar Lands—emerged with an overwhelming presence. He opened his terrifying maw and, with one bite, one tear, ripped the enemy before him to pieces!

Si Yan was stunned. Ming Ji was stunned. Guang Lie was even more stunned.

She had never seen a villain perish so quickly.
