"Um..."
Hu Ke'er let out a soft moan when she felt the burning sensation on her body gradually fade away, and then slowly opened her eyes.
"It's so cold."
As the burning sensation in her body disappeared, Hu Ke'er was soon hit by the cold wind and felt a biting chill.
She gently shivered to shake off the snow on her body, and then looked around.
"Senior Brother?"
Hu Ke'er saw Chen Tianyi, who was already covered in snow beside her, and called out with concern.
"Um, it seems Senior Brother is still in cultivation. It's better not to disturb him for the time being."
"It's so cold."
After waiting for a while on the side, Hu Ke'er gradually felt the power of the Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm. Before, the medicinal effect was still on her body, but now that the effect had worn off, she was gradually being eroded by the cold of the forbidden realm. She could clearly feel her body trembling involuntarily.
"What should I do..."
Hu Ke'er knew that she was trembling because her body was losing heat too quickly, so her body's protection mechanism intervened and made her tremble to generate more heat. However, the heat generated by her body was limited. If this continued, she would eventually collapse in the Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm.
"Hey, I don't know how long Senior Brother will be in cultivation. I still don't know how to get out of here."
"Boom!"
Just as Hu Ke'er didn't know what to do, a huge explosion suddenly came. Hu Ke'er looked in the direction of the sound and saw a huge wave of snow soaring into the sky.
"What is this..."
"Junior Sister, you're already okay?"
Chen Tianyi's voice suddenly came from behind. Hu Ke'er slightly turned her head and saw Chen Tianyi with a surprised expression on his face, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Yes, Senior Brother, you're okay too!"
"Not yet. I was woken up by the commotion just now. Let's go back quickly!"
"Ah?"
Hearing Chen Tianyi's words, Hu Ke'er was also stunned for a moment.
"Go back?"
"Yes, what else?"
Chen Tianyi retorted.
"Could it be that Junior Sister wants to go and see what's going on over there just now?"
"Why not? Something that can make such a big commotion might be a very powerful person."
"Hey, don't you know that curiosity killed the cat, Junior Sister?"
As Chen Tianyi said, he took out a talisman and pasted it on Hu Ke'er's back.
"Are you cold? I see you've been shivering. Aren't you afraid of freezing to death if you don't go out like this?"
"Um, isn't there Senior Brother here?"
Hu Ke'er felt a slight warmth coming from her back and knew that the talisman Chen Tianyi had pasted on her was working. She also smiled and said softly.
"This is a forbidden area. The guys inside are not easy to deal with. How about we just leave?"
Chen Tianyi said with an embarrassed smile.
"Um~ Let's go and take a look. I'll just take a quick look, just one look. After that, will you take me out, Senior Brother?"
Hu Ke'er was really interested in the person who could make such a huge wave of snow just now, but what attracted her more was her own feeling.
She had an intuition that the wave of snow not far away would bring about a huge change to her. Maybe there was a huge secret hidden behind it.
"Okay then."
Under Hu Ke'er's request, Chen Tianyi also nodded helplessly.
"Then Junior Sister, come with me!"
As he said, Chen Tianyi summoned his flying sword and then reached out his hand to Hu Ke'er.
"Okay."
Hu Ke'er didn't want to walk in the thick snowdrift. She grabbed Chen Tianyi's hand and got on the flying sword. Then the two of them flew towards the location where the snow wave had erupted.
"Why does it seem like there's nothing here?"
When Hu Ke'er and Chen Tianyi flew to the location of the snow wave just now, they didn't see a single person. There was white snow everywhere, and there were no human footprints at all.
"After all, this is the Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm. It's normal that there's no one here. Junior Sister, how about we go back?"
Chen Tianyi said softly.
"Okay."
Hu Ke'er looked around from above and didn't see any suspicious signs, so she had no choice but to nod.
"Alright, then let's go back!"
Just as Chen Tianyi was about to fly away on his flying sword, he saw a glinting spot in the vast expanse of white snow.
"Hey hey hey, Senior Brother, wait a minute. Look, there's a glinting spot over there."
"Huh? Where?"
"Over there! Let's go down and take a look!"
As Hu Ke'er said, she pointed to the glittering location not far away.
"Okay!"
Chen Tianyi followed the direction Hu Ke'er was pointing and indeed saw a flickering spot. So he also landed on his flying sword.
"Senior Brother, what do you think that could be? Could it be a very powerful magic treasure?"
"Um, I'm not sure either. But this Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm is very strange. Many senior brothers who violated the sect's rules were locked up here and became very powerful after they came out. Maybe there really will be a strange encounter here!"
"If that's the case, why don't you come here and try your luck, Senior Brother?"
Hearing Chen Tianyi's words, Hu Ke'er said with a naive look on her face.
"It's not that easy. Although there are quite a few senior brothers who have had strange encounters, most of the disciples who entered the Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm didn't make it back."
"Uh..."
Hearing Chen Tianyi's words, Hu Ke'er also looked embarrassed.
"Um, Senior Brother, is it still too late for me to go back now?"
"Forget it. We're already here. Maybe there really will be a strange..."
"Boom!"
Just as Chen Tianyi was about to stop the flying sword while talking, a huge explosion suddenly erupted, and the white snow immediately swept the two of them in.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
After a while, Hu Ke'er managed to push aside the snow on her body and get out.
"Senior Brother?"
Hu Ke'er looked around but didn't see Chen Tianyi's figure.
"Senior Brother Chen~ Senior Brother Chen~ Where are you—"
Hu Ke'er was a little panicked at this time. She regretted not listening to Chen Tianyi and going back earlier.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Just as Hu Ke'er was worried about Chen Tianyi, three explosions suddenly sounded, and then Hu Ke'er saw three figures rushing out of the snow.
"Senior Brother Chen!"
Hu Ke'er recognized Chen Tianyi's figure among the three figures and called out softly. Then she saw Chen Tianyi rush down and directly grab her.
"Let's go!"
"Hey—"
Before Hu Ke'er, who was picked up by Chen Tianyi, could react, she was pulled onto the flying sword and flew directly towards the entrance of the Thousand-Snow Forbidden Realm.
Hu Ke'er also carefully looked back at the two figures confronting each other in the air in the distance. One of them was a girl wearing the clothes of Longhu Mountain, and the other was a middle-aged man in black armor.
