1807 Into Snow Territory 2
“Numerous individuals have unintentionally entered, and many have come seeking to prove their prowess. What does it matter? Even highly skilled warriors have found themselves trapped within Snow Territory, enduring starvation and freezing to death.”
“….”
“They may know the entrance, but they cannot safely navigate their way out of Snow Territory on their own.”
“….”
“Longqing, you have given this matter excessive consideration,” Ouyang Mingjing calmly addressed Longqing. It was evident that he didn’t fully comprehend the reasons for Longqing’s worries.
Longqing shouldn’t have even entertained such thoughts.
Ouyang Mingjing shook his head subtly.
Longqing understood the implications of Ouyang Mingjing’s words. He was aware of it himself. However, he simply wanted to exercise caution. Phoenix Girl and the King from the Saint Divine Land didn’t appear to be easy individuals. It was always better to remain vigilant. Snow Territory had changed, and conflicts were prevalent. He didn’t want any mistakes that could negatively impact the people in Snow Territory.
But upon hearing the City Lord’s response, Longqing felt his concerns dissipate.
He returned to his own wagon.
They embarked on their journey into the vast realm of Snow Territory.
Their progress was swift.
Moments ago, the people on Gu Chaoyan’s side had witnessed mountains in every direction. Yet, as they stepped into this particular cl.u.s.ter of mountains, what lay before them was not more mountains or a sprawling landscape, but a sea of white snow. The white expanse seemed endless, with distant snow-covered peaks punctuating the pristine whiteness.
Turning back to look, they could still see the green mountains they had left behind. However, the stark contrast with the snow-capped mountains ahead created an illusion of an invisible barrier dividing the two sides in a peculiar manner.

Even Gu Chaoyan couldn’t resist the temptation and pulled aside the curtain to steal a glimpse outside.
Zhou Huaijin’s demeanor stiffened as they ventured deeper into Snow Territory. In a hushed tone, he beckoned Fu Bao and whispered, “We have now entered Snow Territory’s realm, an unknown land to us. The whiteness ahead might lead us to an entirely snowy domain. No one knows what awaits us. Fu Bao, inform our concealed guards to exercise extreme caution. Remind them of the entrance and remain vigilant for any potential ambush.”
“…”
“We may have reached an agreement with the City Lord, but we cannot predict the actions of his subordinates towards the Phoenix Girl and us in Snow Territory. Their land is exposed, and we cannot a.s.sume safety.”
“….”
“Remain cautious in the face of the unknown. Understand?”
Zhou Huaijin spoke softly, his voice filled with reverence for the vast expanse of white snow before them.
Fu Bao nodded in acknowledgment and swiftly departed on his horse to relay the message to his comrades.
Gu Chaoyan remained silent by their side. She shared the belief that Zhou Huaijin’s words held truth regarding the potential danger they faced.
