Rou'er's complexion grew even worse. Guan Yue knew that she had also been affected by Senmiyama-senpai's Divine Sense, so he pulled Rou'er and ran towards the distance. Rou'er, in a daze, followed Guan Yue into the colder areas, as they had both trained in Ice Lake before, making them resilient to ordinary cold.
The two kept running away, hoping to escape the influence of Gesen Mountain's immense Divine Sense.
However, at that moment, an even more overwhelming pressure surged towards them. Guan Yue not only felt a sense of suffocation and annoyance but also sensed his own blood flowing backward under this pressure!
Upon hearing this sound, Rou'er immediately collapsed to the ground, completely losing consciousness. As an Attainment Disciple, how could she faint like this? It seemed her condition was already quite critical. Guan Yue quickly went to support her, intending to carry her away.
At that moment, Gesen Mountain suddenly appeared before Guan Yue and Rou'er. Seeing Guan Yue holding the unconscious Rou'er made him very happy. Without hesitation, he quickly grabbed both children under his arms and swiftly moved away. He explained to Guan Yue, "My earlier scan has startled a divine beast in this area; it is likely to come soon. I acted too impulsively because Rou'er doesn't have much time left."
Guan Yue was still feeling very distressed but could sense Gesen Mountain's regret. Disturbing the divine beast meant that finding Winter's New Sprout would become much more difficult.
During their escape, Gesen Mountain managed to awaken Sen Yirou.
However, it wasn't long before that powerful force locked onto the three of them. Clearly, the divine beast was enraged and was about to strike!
Gesen Mountain remained calm at this moment. He quickly searched for a hollow in the mountain and after placing the two children down, said to Guan Yue and Rou'er, "I will draw the divine beast away; you two should search around here first. The possibility of finding Coldland New Sprout is quite high." With that, he swiftly left.
Not long after he departed, a deafening howl and sounds of battle echoed through the sky. The air was filled with flashes of blades and shadows of combatants; continuous thunderous roars shook the heavens, causing the entire Afu Mi Forbidden Zone to be in turmoil.
Guan Yue and Rou'er both looked up intently at the fierce battle in the sky. They could clearly see two figures engaged in intense combat; their clashes were so powerful that even the color of the sky darkened significantly.
"Who is fighting against the senior?" Guan Yue asked in confusion.
"It might just be a humanoid form transformed by a divine beast," Rou'er hesitated to confirm.
One was his grandfather, and the other was a respected senior, so both children were fixated on the battle between the two Great Powers in the sky, fully engrossed.
At that moment, an Arctic Hound approached Guan Yue. It suddenly sprang out from the snow and silently crept up to Guan Yue, then bit down hard on his back.
Guan Yue and Rou'er reacted immediately, counterattacking the Arctic Hound and quickly driving it away. However, Guan Yue's blood had already spilled onto the ground. Rou'er quickly took out some medicine to bind Guan Yue's wounds.
Just then, a transparent Little Snow Tree moved toward the pool of blood that Guan Yue had shed, stopping at the edge and directly absorbing it.
Rou'er exclaimed in delight, "Coldland New Sprout! This is the Coldland New Sprout!"
So this is what the Coldland New Sprout is? It can move on its own? It seems that Gesen Mountain had already identified its presence in this area during its earlier sweep, which is why they remained here.
The Little Snow Tree stood about two feet tall, crystal clear and translucent, with three unique snowflakes blooming on its branches, shimmering with a hint of dark red.
Guan Yue gestured for Rou'er to be quiet and urged her to quickly consume it. The snow tree had completely stopped and was absorbing Guan Yue's blood. However, every time Rou'er tried to approach it, the snow tree would swiftly dodge away, leaving them with no way to catch it.
Finally, Rou'er said, "Why don't you try? It might like you since it seems so fond of your blood."
"Alright, I'll hold it still while you come over to consume it," Guan Yue replied anxiously as he watched from the side. He nodded in agreement when Rou'er suggested this.
As expected, the snow tree allowed Guan Yue to get close and even let him hold it. Guan Yue signaled for Rou'er to come over and consume the Little Snow Tree. However, just as Rou'er opened her mouth to swallow it, the Little Snow Tree suddenly darted directly into Guan Yue's body.
Rou'er saw everything clearly; she knew that she was fated to be apart from Coldland New Sprout. A look of deep despondency crossed her face, and she could no longer see any hope for survival.
In an instant, Sen Yirou seemed to lose all strength to continue living. Her body went limp, and she could no longer move.
At this moment, Guan Yue felt an overwhelming sense of guilt, but there was nothing he could do. In reality, he had deprived Rou'er of her chance to survive! Watching Rou'er, who had already fallen into a state of unconsciousness beside him, he felt that even if it cost him his life, he had to help her. Because this was his fault!
He held Rou'er in his arms and realized how light she had become; her body had suffered severe depletion.
Seeing this beautiful girl on the verge of death because of him filled his heart with profound sorrow. He sat there holding Rou'er, lost in thought. Although he did not often communicate with Rou'er, she was the first girl he had interacted with so much in his life, even more than Ouyang Shaohua. She had never bullied him and had helped him immensely.
Guan Yue's feelings were clear; she was his benefactor. If she hadn't asked Senmiyama-senpai to take him home, he might have died on the way to the Afu Mi Forbidden Zone.
The fighting in the sky had ceased. However, the chilling howls continued unabated, as if celebrating its victory. Guan Yue knew that Senmiyama-senpai had lost. He had not been able to defeat the divine beast.
Was Senmiyama-senpai still alive?
Guan Yue waited all day without any news from Senmiyama-senpai. Then he began to carry the unconscious Rou'er toward the base they had established by Great Water Lake when they first entered the Afu Mi Forbidden Zone. There was their food and a change of clothes for Rou'er.
Guan Yue trudged along with Rou'er on his back. Fortunately, he was a Transcendent Practitioner; otherwise, he would never have been able to accomplish such a grueling task. The oppressive atmosphere of the forbidden zone was indeed overwhelming.
On the way back to Great Water Lake, Guan Yue noticed that skilled fighters occasionally flew overhead while he remained grounded and felt a significant sense of oppression; his Combat Power was greatly affected.
Seven days later, Guan Yue safely returned to their base by the lake while carrying Rou'er. However, this small base had already been discovered; three youths were waiting for them at the edge of the base.
Among the three, there was a girl, a young man with a broad face, and another young man with a noticeable scar on his left forehead. When Guan Yue approached them carrying Sen Yirou, the scarred young man shouted loudly, "Dongfang Shixiong, Miao Shijie, it seems our judgment was indeed correct. This is their lair, but there must be more than just these two kids; there are definitely others."
These three were disciples of the Forbidden Area's Three Elders: one named Dongfang Yu, the girl named Miao Fang, and the one who just spoke was Yin Dongnan.
The broad-faced Dongfang Yu shouted at Guan Yue, "Kid, who are you? Don't you know? The Forbidden Area is sacred and inviolable! Do you dare to cause trouble here? Are you tired of living? Speak up—who else came with you?"
Guan Yue looked up at the three of them and noticed that their cultivation levels were significantly higher than his. He then replied, "Let me put Rou'er down first. She is in critical condition and needs immediate treatment." He was secretly contemplating how to deal with these three.
He intended to carry Rou'er into the small formation set up in Gesen Mountain, but Miao Fang reached out to block him from entering the formation. "Put the girl down right here and answer our questions properly. Don't even think about escaping." Miao Fang had a very strong physique; under normal circumstances, Guan Yue would have appreciated her appearance, but now he was facing a life-and-death situation and dared not be distracted. He could see a strong killing intent in their eyes.
Guan Yue took a few steps and placed Rou'er on a slightly elevated ground, standing beside her. He then faced the three and asked back, "May I ask who you are? On what basis do you point fingers at me?"
"How dare you talk back!" Yin Dongnan immediately leaped forward and struck at Guan Yue with a palm. Guan Yue slightly dodged and avoided it.
However, Guan Yue still said, "Why should I answer your questions? Is it just because your fists are bigger?"
Yin Dongnan lunged forward again and threw another punch at Guan Yue. This time he was using all his strength to deliver a heavy blow. Guan Yue did not dare to be careless; he immediately activated Nine Pulse Will and executed Li Zu Divine Fist's second move, Cleaving Waves and Splitting Seas, which collided perfectly with Yin Dongnan's fist. There was a loud bang as Guan Yue was knocked back five steps while Yin Dongnan retreated over ten steps down the slope.
As Guan Yue walked back to Rou'er’s side, he persistently asked, "Who exactly are you?" At that moment, he sensed that Dongfang Yu's body had begun to surge with Origin Energy. The powerful Vital Energy Fluctuation indicated that he was a formidable opponent whose cultivation level far exceeded his own and was already prepared to attack. Guan Yue couldn't help but worry; Rou'er must not come to harm.
Yin Dongnan being pushed back surprised both Dongfang Yu and Miao Fang. Miao Fang calmed the agitated Yin Dongnan and said to Guan Yue, "Kid, we are disciples of the three great elders of Afu Mi Forbidden Zone. My name is Miao Fang, a disciple of the Sixth Elder. Now I ask you: who are you? How many people came to the Forbidden Area with you? What is your purpose here?" At this moment, Miao Fang's expression was very serious and solemn, displaying her authority that was completely different from Yin Dongnan's demeanor. The pressure she emitted was nearly on par with Dongfang Yu's.
