  Ding Hao looked gloomy and shook his head, saying, “Ke’er missed years ago.” The thorough infusion of soul and mind had enabled Ding Hao to inherit all the feelings of his predecessor. The blood connection with his sister has not weakened but has become more and more intense.

  “Ah,” said Li Lan apologetically, “I’m sorry, I don’t know……”


  Ding Hao shook his head and smiled. He said, “No matter where Ke’er went, I will find her, definitely.” He said firmly.

  “It turns out that your sister’s name is Ding Ke’er. That’s a nice name. I guess she must be very good and beautiful, right?” The cold wind blew and messed up Li Lan’s long hair. He stretched out his hand and gently gathered his long hair, acting naturally.

  Ding Hao, however, was stunned. He smiled and handed over the roasted fat fish, saying, “Hey, Xiao Lan, if not your Adam’s apple and you don’t have female chest, I would think you are a woman.”


  Li Lan looked slightly shocked but was surprisingly not furious. He said with a smile, “I wish I were a woman, and I wouldn’t have to bear too much burden in my life.” He then gently took a bite of the roasted fish, feeling that the lips and teeth were fragrant and the bottom of the tongue was producing saliva. He sincerely praised, “Wow, the taste is very good.”


  Ding Hao burst out laughing and then said, “Of course.”


  The cute cat urgent cried, and he used his small head rubbing on Ding Hao’s calf, very adorable, and he was drooling.

  Ding Hao hurriedly gave the little cat a grilled fish.

  “Meow!” The cat jumped up and licked Ding Hao’s cheek affectionately. Only then did he eat his own share with satisfaction.

  “Interesting little fellow.” Li Lan looked at the cat with a soft smile on his face.

  The two men chatted while eating. Unconsciously, they became closer. Ding Hao squatted and felt uncomfortable, so he moved over and sat down on Li Lan’s fur mantle. Li Lan frowned, moved aside and finally acquiesced in Ding Hao’s behavior.

  Ding Hao said with a smile, “I know you have a mania for cleanliness, but don’t worry, I am very clean. You can check me.”


  Li Lan snorted and kicked Ding Hao and ate the roasted fish silently before speaking. He said, “By the way, we must be careful in tomorrow’s relic trial. After entering, we must follow the teachers and martial uncles closely. Outside, the wandering warriors and rogue cultivators dare not attack our disciples of the nine sects, but they will attack us inside the relic. These people are outlaws and lack of cultivation resources. They can do anything to get the manuals.”


  “In that case, why do the nine sects still send the nominal disciples here and allow those no-sect guys to explore the ruins? Do they want these outstanding disciples to die here?” Ding Hao frowned slightly.

  “In order not to provoke public anger, the nine sects have to allow those wandering warriors and rogue cultivators come here, after all, these people are powerful enough in Snow Province. Besides, snakes have their advantages, and rats have their advantages. Among these people, there are also some strange people who perhaps are not good fighters, but they are good at exploring the ruins. The nine sects want them thoroughly explore this relic area. Actually, they are still regarded as cannon fodder. If there is any missing treasure discovered by them, the nine sects will buy it at a high price. If these men and women don’t sell, the nine sects will steal it secretly.”


  Li Lan said quietly.

  However, Ding Hao felt creepy.

  He suddenly realized how cruel this world is.

  “These wandering warriors and rogue cultivators are not fools. They know what the nine sects are thinking. However, they have no choice. If they want to become stronger, they must take risks. This is an opportunity,” Li Lan paused and continued, “And the Sects sent their excellent disciples here for exercise. The more excellent the disciples are, the more exercise they need. None of the sects hope that their successors they have spent a lot of energy to cultivate are flowers in the greenhouse and can’t stand the wind and rain. Of course, our safety will also be guaranteed. That’s why there are five third-generation disciples here with us.”


  Li Lan’s analysis was very thorough.

  When Ding Hao heard this, he nodded. Indeed, it was the way Swordsmanship-seeking Sect trained its disciples.

  “The relic area we are going to enter tomorrow has a history of tens of thousands of years. A super large sect was located here, but somehow, this sect was destroyed, and the resource was preserved under the protection of its Prohibitions. While, after a long period of time, half of that sect had been buried underground and was divided into three layers. The pamphlet out sect gave us has marked all the mechanism and the terrain inside. About 80% to 90% of the treasures will be divided by the nine Sects. Tranquility Academy and Mu Tianyang will get the majority. Perhaps some treasure rooms have not yet been discovered. If someone is lucky, they will get the treasure inside.”


  The wind was blowing and the snow was heavy. Li Lan slowly ate a fat fish up, and basically finished what he had to say. He then stood up and stretched his body. He said goodbye to Ding Hao and then left.

  “Hello, Lan, your fur mantle.” Ding Hao shouted.

  “It’s yous now.” Li Lan waved his hand without looking back.

  Soon, Li Lan disappeared in the snow.

  “How generous you are.” Ding Hao muttered.

  Although Ding Hao did not know Li Lan’s real identity, he gave such a superior fur made by a cyan fox Demon General to him, which meant that his family was rich than Wang Xiaoqi’s. Besides, Li Lan could always know a lot of news from the High-level of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect in advance.

  Ding Hao speculated that Li Lan definitely had a great relationship with the inner core of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

  Soon, the north wind was blowing and began to roar.

  The snow is getting heavier and heavier, blurring the line of sight.

  The first snow Ding Hao met in Snow Province would last for several days and nights from now.

  The winter was coming.

  The cruelest season in Snow Province came. During the long winter, the weather conditions became harsh, vegetation withered and rivers froze. More friction would occur between the Demon Tribe and the Human Tribe due to food shortage. Small-scale wars were common.

  According to the previous rules, the nine sects would soon send their masters to the cities where the Human Tribe lived in to avoid being slaughtered by the Demon Tribe.
