【Ice Cave】

Underneath the Forest of the Face Tree, there is a man-made ice cave, and the temperature inside the ice cave is extremely low, which is unbearable for any ordinary creature.

In the cave full of ice, a lifelike ice sculpture stands out in the middle.

It was an ice sculpture of a handsome boy who looked to be about twelve years old, and he maintained a meditative posture sitting cross-legged.

Suddenly, a little blue light began to light up on the ice sculpture's head, and it became brighter and brighter as time passed......

Click......

The ice sculpture shook slightly, and a crack appeared in the complete shape.

Click...... Click......

The cracks are getting bigger and bigger, and the ice fragments and ice powder are falling down little by little.

Boom! There was a crunch.

The entire ice sculpture exploded violently, revealing the handsome boy inside.

The handsome young man had white broken hair and a miserable white complexion, and he slowly opened his eyes, which were a pair of sapphire-like eyes, shining brightly.

"Huh?"

The handsome young man reached out to the center of his eyebrows in confusion, and the blue light slowly dissipated. The handsome young man silently accepted the information that was transmitted to his mind with a secret method.

"Tsk!"

After receiving the message, the young man put on an unhappy expression, and he scolded at the empty ice cave.

"Tsk! This unfilial son! Disturbing my slumber for such a thing! Is the daughter of Ari IX...... It's been passed down to the ninth......"

As if thinking of the memories of the past, the young man stood quietly in a daze.

…

…

In the Forest of Human Face Trees, Chen Rui followed Zach to the source of the cold.

"Hey, isn't Zach here? Could you be mistaken? How did you look for so long? ”

Chen Rui clasped his hands together, buckled them under the back of his head, his eyes were looking everywhere, and after finding that there was no target he was looking for anywhere, he asked Zack weakly.

"You can't be wrong, Zach remembers that he entered the Forest of the Face Tree fifty years ago, and hasn't seen him since, except for the occasional chill, he must be hiding somewhere."

Zack led the way with two long golden legs, he was used to simulating a human form, which was much faster than the round body of a slime.

…

…

"Here it is! Just behind the tree, Zach could feel a powerful magic inside. ”

Zach stretched out his hand and pointed to an oversized human-faced tree in front of the mountain in front of him and said to Chen Rui.

"Wow, this tree is huge!"

Chen Rui touched the beard on his chin and looked at the huge human-faced tree in front of him in surprise and said. "I'm afraid it's been years old!"

The huge human-faced tree is more than 20 meters high, and the body of the tree needs to be as wide as several adults to hug.

As if sensing the movement in front of him, the facial features in the middle of the huge human-faced tree began to tremble.

"Who's disturbing the hibernation?"

The huge tree's mouth opened slightly, and an old voice came out.

"Behind this tree?"

"Yes, Zach can guarantee it."

"Okay."

Chen Rui shook his arm, walked to the bottom of the huge human face tree, raised his right hand slightly, and clenched it into a fist.

"What do you want, rude! Rude! Stop your movements, ignorant humans! ”

I don't know how many years the huge human-faced tree has lived, and when its eyes widened, it looked at Chen Rui in horror.

It can feel the terrifying power hidden in the human body in front of it, and it will die! If you get hit head-on by this human! Instinct is frantically warning the face tree.

Brush Brush Brush !!

Countless branches spread out from the body of the human face tree and stabbed towards Chen Rui!

Dododo!!

The branches penetrated the ground where Chen Rui was standing, but did not touch Chen Rui in the slightest. The speed at which Chen Rui moved, no one could catch it, just now he jumped up slightly, avoided the attack of the branch, and then stood firmly on the branch.

"Warn you, retreat quickly! This is not a place for you to step into. ”

The human face tree was shocked and angry, shocked by Chen Rui's terrifying speed, angry that he didn't listen to his own persuasion.

Just before Chen Rui made a new move, a change protruded.

Click...... Click......

The white cold air came out from behind the face tree, and the temperature dropped rapidly, just for a moment, Chen Rui was still fighting against the face tree at the last moment, and Zach was watching the play in the back. The next moment, all three of them were frozen into ice sculptures by the sudden cold.

Boom!!!

A large piece of solid ice pierced through the middle of the face tree, forming a two-meter radius passage.

A handsome young man with white broken hair, dressed in a blue magic robe, appeared in the hole in the middle of the body of the freshly pierced human face tree.

"Ah~"

The handsome young man yawned, and he was dazzled by the dazzling eyes outside.

"It's been a long time since I saw the sun."

Click...... Click......

The ice cube that froze Chen Rui soon began to crack, and with a soft sound, the ice cube exploded to reveal Chen Rui, who had multiple frostbitten spots all over his body.

"Oops, it hurts. It was cold and painful. ”

Chen Rui felt that the heat in his whole body was flowing quickly, and his eyes glanced at Zach first. Finding that he was still an ice sculpture, he looked at the white-haired boy standing on the hollow of the tree and said unkindly to him.

"That kid over there! Please untie my partner's ice, or your Uncle Chen Rui will be angry! ”

The white-haired boy turned his gaze to Chen Rui and found that the muscular uncle below who was dressed as a magician's apprentice was talking to him.

"Huh? What are you talking about? I just didn't hear clearly. ”

"I'll let you untie the ice from my companion! How can you be so bad at such a young age! If it weren't for your Uncle Chen Rui's talent, wouldn't you be frozen to death directly! ”

The white-haired boy raised his hand, pointed at Zack, and showed a weird smile at Chen Rui.

"You said untie it, okay."

Rumble!!!

The ice that enveloped Zach exploded violently and turned into ice powder, and of course Zack who was frozen in the ice did the same.

"Hahaha, how's it going, uncle? I did as you asked, and untied your partner's ice, though it may have been a little rough. ”

The white-haired boy squinted his eyes and smiled happily.

"You bear child, it seems that your Uncle Chen Rui wants to educate you well!"

"What?! When?! ”

The white-haired young man heard Chen Rui's voice behind him, and immediately turned around in surprise, only to find that Chen Rui appeared behind him at some point, with a gloomy and terrifying expression on his face.

"Ice Spike !!"

The white-haired young man opened his eyes, raised his left hand and pointed at Chen Rui.

Several slender icicles appeared in an instant, and stabbed towards Chen Rui quickly.

Chen Rui raised his hand expressionlessly, and waved it instantly when the icicle was close to his face.

Bang bang bang!!

"It can't be! He actually used the power of pure flesh to break my ice spike with his bare hands! That's ice that pierces through steel! ”

Under the disbelieving gaze of the white-haired boy, Chen Rui smashed all the icicles with his right hand.

"Come on, come on, let your Uncle Chen Rui teach you what it means to respect the old and love the young!"

Chen Rui squeaked his fists, the expression on his face was very terrifying, and he walked towards the white-haired boy step by step.
