Three people appeared anxious and flustered, so Gu Liu Ma stepped forward and said, "Don't panic. How about this?"
He slowly spoke, "I will first have Zhongming Bird take you to Tianshan, then I will return. Once Ling Zhu and the others bring back the Thousand-Year Ganoderma, I will prepare the medicine and send it to Tianshan. Of course, the priority is for you to save Miss Xueer before tomorrow!"
"Very well, it seems this is the best plan!" Lan Ran Qingtian felt grateful to Gu Liu Ma. Having fought together before, he naturally trusted him, and Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue felt the same way.
"Then let's not delay!" Gu Liu Ma quickly formed hand seals, then bit his finger and struck it against the ground. The cracked earth released a mist, and the fiery red Zhongming Bird appeared before them.
Li Yunyang confidently handed over the Gentian in his hand to Gu Liu Ma and repeatedly reminded him to wait for Ling Zhu's return. The three then flew towards Tianshan in the southeast.
Gu Liu Ma held the Gentian of Black Dragon Saint Lord in his hand, a crescent-shaped cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Oh dear, what should I do now? Should I save them or not?"
The trio advanced towards Tianshan. The ancient being's speed was astonishing; in less than three hours, they had reached the summit of Tianshan Peak. The biting cold emanating from the snow-capped mountains nearly froze them solid just by being close.
Having just emerged from a bitter battle in Underground City, they now faced the test of extreme cold. Li Yunyang sighed deeply, gathering his strength and adjusting his physical condition to its best state to withstand the chill.
Zhongming Bird landed on the peak and flapped its wings before turning back towards the inn. In this vast snowy mountain, where could they find Xiang Xueer and that Lizard Spirit?
The snow was nearly up to their knees, making each step feel laborious, let alone searching for someone. Looking up at the rolling red clouds, they seemed particularly close to the sky.
Qingtian frowned at the red clouds, his expression darkening: "Not good; it seems a snowstorm is coming. We must find a place to take shelter!"
"A snowstorm?" Lian Cheng Xue was puzzled; how could there be a snowstorm when the sky was so clear? Qingtian quickly moved towards the summit: "I often trained in the snowy mountains with my father when I was young; I know what I'm talking about. It looks like we won't have much time before evening!"
Troubles came one after another, and they had to temporarily set aside the search for Xiang Xueer. They needed to find a place to hide from the blizzard first.
Finally, they found a cave halfway up a nearby mountain. The surrounding snow was a vast expanse of white, and a shadow flickered, immediately catching Li Yunyang's attention. He wrinkled his nose and carefully sniffed the air; the air above the clean snow-capped mountains was very pure, and he could detect even the slightest scent.
"There’s demonic energy!" His keen eyes scanned the surroundings cautiously. Aside from the white snow, there was still only white snow. Lian Cheng Xue and Qingtian searched around for a while but shook their heads, saying, "We didn't find anything!"
Li Yunyang couldn't help but feel puzzled. Although it was just for an instant, he had indeed smelled something different. Now that he tried to sniff again, there was nothing.
"Stop thinking about it; let’s get into the cave quickly!" Lian Cheng Xue urged, and Li Yunyang didn’t dwell on it too much. The three of them entered the cave, which was about two people high. Inside, the ground was covered with ice, and even at the entrance of the cave, there was a pile of snow as tall as a person.
As soon as Li Yunyang stepped into the cave's entrance, suddenly, a black shadow shot out from inside the cave with a 'bang,' creating a large hole in the wall, startling everyone into stepping back a few paces.
"What is that?!" Lian Cheng Xue quickly drew out the Black Iron Sword. It was pitch black inside; could that shadow be something like a tail? Was there really a beast here?
"Lian Xiong, don’t panic!" Lan Ran Qingtian first calmed the two of them down. However, Li Yunyang, who was standing aside, suddenly furrowed his brows and shouted, "It’s the scent of that demon from earlier, along with the smell of Dead Girl!"
"What?" Lian Cheng Xue and Qingtian were shocked upon hearing this. They hadn’t expected that while just looking for a place to escape the storm, they would stumble upon that Lizard Spirit and Xiang Xueer hiding in this cave.
"How fortunate! It’s like finding something without even searching hard!" Li Yunyang gritted his teeth and raised his Azure Dragon Sword as he charged into the cave. "You beast, give me back my Dead Girl!"
"Hey, wait! Don’t be reckless." Qingtian tried to grab him, but this guy's temper was uncontrollable; in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the dark cave.
Seeing Li Yunyang rush in without hesitation, Lian Cheng Xue also drew his Black Iron Sword and followed him inside. Only Qingtian remained at the entrance alone: "These two guys! Without Shirley around, they act recklessly at any time; it’s really hard to manage them!"
Lan Ran Qingtian sighed and had no choice but to brace himself and enter the cave. Although he was worried about Xiang Xueer's safety, at least the three of them could come up with a battle plan or something.
Li Yunyang's nose was very sensitive; the increasingly thick demonic aura and Xiang Xueer's presence immediately helped him discern the direction. Even in the darkness, he could withstand its attacks.
A scaled tail continuously attacked Li Yunyang. He easily dodged its assault and finally reached the deepest part of the cave.
In a circular cavern, red candles lit up the walls, illuminating the icy ground unusually brightly, as if through a mirror. In the center, around a Stone Bed, there was a blanket of white Fox Fur, warm and comfortable, with flower petals scattered at the head of the bed. It was unclear where the fresh flowers had come from; they certainly couldn't grow in the snow-covered Tianshan.
The fragrance of flowers wafted in the air. In the center of the Stone Bed lay a Green-Eyed Man tightly holding the unconscious Xiang Xueer in his arms. He glared hostilely at Li Yunyang, who had appeared before him, while his tail continued to sway in the air behind him.
"Who are you?" The man's green pupils contracted sharply as he noticed Li Yunyang's gaze fixed on Xiang Xueer. He immediately tightened his hold on her and shouted, "What do you want?"
Veins bulged on Li Yunyang's forehead. It was needless to say that this scoundrel must be the Lizard Spirit. How dare he hold her so tightly? This instantly ignited jealousy within him, and he retorted furiously, "I want to ask you what you intend to do with my woman!"
"Your woman?" The Lizard Spirit's eyes revealed hostility as he glared at Li Yunyang with furrowed brows. "What nonsense are you talking? She is my Jing Yue; when did she become your woman?"
"What Jing Yue? Her name is Xiang Xueer; she is my fiancée!" Li Yunyang rushed forward and grabbed Xiang Xueer's arm, trying to pull her to his side. Seeing this, the Lizard Spirit swept his tail and moved to a corner while holding Xiang Xueer.
The Lizard Spirit was finally enraged; his eyes seemed ready to spit fire as if he wanted to tear Li Yunyang apart. He shook his tail and roared, "You dare to compete with me for Jing Yue? I will kill you!"
