Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1660 - 744: Cold Lake

Daoist Qing Yan, holding a bell, smiled at him.

The bell in his hand was still gently swaying, emitting sound waves.

Luo Jianqing, Fatty Jia, and others had been waiting at the exit for a long time.

Luo Jianqing, with cold eyes and face, glanced over at Fang Yu.

The others weren’t even interested in looking this way, busy packing their things, as if they had all been attacked.

"Giddy up!!"

With a clear voice ringing from behind.

Fang Yu turned to look and saw the Old Witch Feng Yahu, like himself, successfully burst out from the forest exit.

With her arrival, all the team members were finally gathered.

"So slow."

Sitting on the ground, Fatty Jia waved his hand and stood up, saying.

"Look who’s talking; if it weren’t for your ambush, we would have been out long ago." Dongfang Aotian said coldly from horseback.

"As if you weren’t caught off guard, you couldn’t even tell illusion from reality. If it weren’t for Daoist Qing Yan’s artifact leading the way, you’d still be trapped inside now!"

The two of them were quite heated, seeming a bit upset over a minor setback.

"Daoist Qing Yan."

The Old Witch behaved very well in front of Daoist Qing Yan, greeted him, and returned to her position quietly.

Fang Yu also cupped his hands towards Daoist Qing Yan to express gratitude.

The others also mounted their horses, preparing to set off once more.

Daoist Qing Yan smiled as he put away the bell and said.

"Qiu Ni Forest is inherently hard to distinguish between reality and illusion. Even if we are together, we will be separated one by one. But with the artifact prepared by Yunyun, even if we separate, as long as we follow the bell and let the Black-footed Horse gallop with all its might, we can quickly pass through Qiu Ni Forest. As for the demons in the forest, even if separated, with your skills, handling them is not a hard task."

What is this? A test?

However, Fang Yu felt more like Daoist Qing Yan overestimated the discipline and unity of this team...

Which is to say, he was careless.

What seemed like a small challenge, not needing a prior warning, just following the bell to run, turned out to waste time and left the team in slight disarray...

Fang Yu didn’t know what Daoist Qing Yan was thinking, but at this point, he learned his lesson. No matter what comes next, he intends to stick closely to Daoist Qing Yan and follow in his footsteps.

"To quickly reach the Melted Heart Cave, there are three major hurdles that cannot be avoided."

"Qiu Ni Forest is the first hurdle."

"As for the second hurdle, it’s the Northern Cold Lake."

"This lake, its surface frozen all year round, is extremely cold. There are even rumors that someone tried to raise a special kind of demon, moving the Northern Cold Lake here from the Land of Extreme Cold. That’s why it doesn’t match the surrounding environment, forming its own system, yet enduring for a long time."

Perhaps learning from experience or anticipating some trouble with the Northern Cold Lake, Daoist Qing Yan actually discussed it with everyone on the journey.

The team set off, with Daoist Qing Yan still leading far ahead, pushing the Black-footed Horse to its limits.

Fang Yu and the Old Witch had now grasped some driving skills for the Black-footed Horse, so they managed to keep up in speed, not falling too far behind the team as before.

"The Land of Extreme Cold?" Luo Jianqing rarely moved his lips.

Fang Yu had already roughly figured out the nature of the people in this rescue team.

This Luo Jianqing, is typically the type who is silent, aloof, posing as a master.

Of course, he genuinely is a master...

Despite any bold words Fang Yu made before setting out, in front of this man’s fighting power of 15,000 blood volume, he had to stay humble.

"Oh? Sect Master Luo knows the Land of Extreme Cold?"

Luo Jianqing was silent for a moment, seemingly a bit uncomfortable with the title ’Sect Master,’ but soon, he responded coldly.

"Haven’t been there, but heard of it. The Northern End, Ice Extreme Cold, heard there are many who offer high prices to acquire the Ice Demon materials from there. If caught alive, the price offered would be even higher."

Seriously... as a sect master, how come all you talk about is money...

Fang Yu was speechless, feeling that the title of Sect Master was somewhat devalued on Luo Jianqing.

"Some nobles in the Capital are indeed interested in these rare and strange demons and can offer high prices. However, even if the demons from the Land of Extreme Cold are caught alive, the transportation issues en route are a significant challenge."

Daoist Qing Yan spoke without slowing down, making it somewhat hard for Fang Yu to keep up.

It seems, whether an illusion or not, that during this casual chat, the team’s overall marching speed suddenly increased.

"For business, come to me! If Sect Master Luo can capture the demons from the Land of Extreme Cold, I’ll figure out the transportation. Afterward, we split seventy-thirty!"

It was Fatty Jia, smiling all over, but Luo Jianqing just glanced at him, ignoring him.

Fang Yu, seeing this, sneered silently to himself.

Seventy-thirty split, who gets seventy? Why do you, just doing the transport, get seventy, or thirty? Know your place.

Fatty Jia, sticking hot faces to cold butts, could only chuckle awkwardly to dissolve the embarrassment.

Daoist Qing Yan just smiled, picking up the conversation, seemingly trying to keep everyone’s attention focused on him.

"Even if the transportation issue is resolved, most demons from the Land of Extreme Cold can’t adapt to the outside environment. Only those demons with special bloodlines or strong enough themselves can operate outside the Land of Extreme Cold. Otherwise, if they leave the Land of Extreme Cold, they’d die before reaching the Capital city."

So fragile?

What fragile demons...

Fang Yu muttered to himself.
