Chapter 337: Ice and Snow City
Knowing this, Xiao Che withdrew quietly, and he didn't even meet the "drunkard" again. He was also afraid that the "drunkard" would be targeted.
Xiao Che came in disguise, and he also took the elixir of hidden cultivation. It hasn't been discovered by anyone since. Even the person he met was only one of many travelers.
After leaving here, Xiao Che immediately returned to the barracks.
The speed of going back is even a few points faster than when I came.
"Xiao Che. You're back!" Xue Wuxian and Dongfang Ye saw Xiao Che at a glance.
"Let's get out of this place now. It won't be long before they're here. If the two sides collide, I'm afraid it's not a good thing. And these people are not specifically aimed at us at all. I think they must be very powerful in the dark. Let's avoid it. Xiao Che finished these words in one breath.
"Alright, let's go right away. I'm going to gather the army. With that, Dongfang Ye went to prepare.
"Xiao Che, where are we going next? This is the information I have collected in the past two days. Let's see if there's any useful information?" asked Snow Without a Trace.
"No trace, do you dare to play big?" Xiao Che saw one of the pieces of information, and his eyes lit up.
"Oh, why don't you dare!" said Xue Wuxian with a smile.
"This time, we went to Yandu for an outing. Xiao Che said.
"Hey, hey, I like challenging work the most. Of course, Xue Wuxian understood what Xiao Che meant, don't look at him usually very calm, but he is also a crazy person in his bones.
"Alright, let's go quickly!" At this time, Dongfang Ye had already assembled his troops. They embark on a new journey.
In order to reduce Xiao Che's stress. Xiao Qian and Hua Yu'er were facing the frantic attack of the Northern Yan Empire.
Xiao Che's approach was undoubtedly right, he specifically picked the Northern Yan Empire to attack, which would inevitably make the prestige of the Northern Yan Empire decline.
Once the Northern Yan Empire's performance on the battlefield is too weak, it will be impossible for other countries to obey him. When the time comes, it will fall apart sooner or later. And Murong Qing and Murong Ming were not idle. Once their plan began to be implemented, the blow to the Northern Yan Empire was almost fundamental. This was even more terrible than the defeat of the Empire in foreign wars. Especially for Emperor Yu.
Now, Yandu is the most chaotic place, not that the management here is chaotic. Rather, the form here is too complicated. Now there is a faint tendency to become the center of the north. The forces of all sides are intertwined.
At this time, Xiao Che and the others were moving quickly towards Yandu.
This time, they targeted warehouses near Yandu.
It can be said that it is the strategic material storage site of the Northern Yan Empire. If Xiao Che destroys it. Then the blow to the Northern Yan Empire is very big. In other words, the blow to Emperor Yu is very big.
In any case, Xiao Che would not harm the people of Beiyan. After all, if the Murong sisters and brothers can come back in the future. It's also their own territory. As for those materials, the Xuanfu side will go all out to help at that time.
Along the way, Snow Trail is gathering information from all sides. It makes him very hard, Xiao Che and they are not good at these. It doesn't help much. However, they still picked out some capable assistants from the eye of heaven to assist Xue Wuxi.
A hundred kilometers away from Yandu, it is a bustling small city.
This small city is the storage site of strategic materials of the Northern Yan Empire, Linyan City.
The population here is large, commerce and trade are developed, and the transportation is smooth, and none of the local residents in the city are ordinary people, they are all a special unit belonging to the Northern Yan Empire.
They were ordered to stay here for a long time, and it was also to ensure the safety of these strategic materials.
This time, Xiao Che couldn't have so many of them all act together. Then they won't be able to go to Linyan City at all.
Now Xiao Che divided them into different groups. Let them pretend to be caravans, travelers. Blend into the city of Linyan.
Snow Trail has completely investigated the location of the supplies.
Xiao Che: They entered the city in batches. When they entered the city, they did not arouse anyone's suspicion at all. Whether in terms of dress, language or behavior, they dress up as authentic Beiyan people.
There are more than one million people coming and going in Linyan City every day, and Xiao Che's tens of thousands of people coming in will not attract special attention at all.
And these days there are already more people coming and going than usual. So it's all the norm. It was also in this context that Xiao Che and the others were able to enter smoothly.
They gathered together that night. Attack the place where Snow Without a Trace has been identified. This was not what anyone expected. Xiao Che's idea is also very simple, he is afraid of long nights and dreams. It's better to start early.
And then they can attack with lightning speed, and they can achieve the best results.
Xiao Che, Dongfang Ye, and Xue Wuxian respectively led a group of men and horses to attack in the warehouse where the materials were located in Linyan City.
It's a big warehouse. In fact, all the supplies are stored underground. The warehouse on the ground is nothing more than an ornament to keep it from attracting attention. But these are nothing to Tianyan at all.
There's nothing they can't detect. As long as you are willing to pay a sufficient price. This is the inferiority of human beings. It is that people will sell themselves for profit.
Soon, Xiao Che and them made Linyan City suddenly chaotic.
These people cooperate quite tacitly, some of them attack, some of them prevent fire, and some of them pretend to panic and create chaos.
Anyway, now the two sides are in a hostile position. Xiao Che: It is impossible for them to show mercy.
Soon they destroyed the set target, and then all withdrew according to Xiao Che's order.
Originally, there was a city gate here, and most of the guards were not weak. But Xiao Che couldn't have imagined this, he sent someone to control the city gate as soon as possible. Adequate preparations were made for their evacuation.
They evacuated immediately after the attack, and they did not choose to return the way they came, as is the case with conventional thinking. Instead, they went in the opposite direction, all the way north.
The Northern Yan Empire was already a northern country. Further north of them. It's a sphere of influence called Ice City.
It's also the hometown of Snow Trail. Speaking of which, he hasn't been back for a long time. The people who came out of here were amazing. This is the reason why the Ice City has survived among the many northern kingdoms.
And their Snow Family is the largest family in Ice and Snow City. It is advisable to propose this strategy or learn without a trace. As soon as Xiao Che heard it, he immediately adopted it.
If they went to the Ice and Snow City, it would be impossible for the Northern Yan Empire to chase them anymore. They already have a clear pact with the Ice City.
No matter who sets foot in the realm of the Ice and Snow City, no matter which empire it is, they will not be able to cross the boundary.
Those who can speak confidently to other countries like this. Probably only the Ice City. But they are really strong. This is also the reason for the envy of the northern countries.
They knew very well what kind of strength this ice city had.
However, for so many years, the Ice City has no reputation for not participating in any outside affairs. Therefore, its status in the north is still very high. Even the common people consider it a sacred place.
To this end, Ice City spares no effort to promote and endorse itself.
In order to expand their influence.
Although no one knows what they want to do with this.
In fact, they didn't know that the Ice and Snow City was not as indifferent as it seemed, on the contrary, they had cultivated many forces all over the northern countries.
This time, the main thing of the Ten Thousand Demon Alliance, in addition to the Qingxuan Empire, is to make a move on the Ice and Snow City.
The enmity and strife between the two forces. It is from ancient times to the present day.
These are also known to Xue Wuxian after investigation.
Xiao Che and the others successfully arrived at the range of the Ice and Snow City, and sure enough, although the Northern Yan people behind them were helpless, they all stopped outside and did not cross the boundary of the earth.
Xiao Che and they were able to enter it completely thanks to Xue Wuxi.
"Traceless, this is your hometown! Here you are the landlord, we all listen to you. Xiao Che said with a smile.
"I haven't been back for a long time. I'm the kind of person who doesn't get treated well by the Xue family. Xue Wuxian said a little sadly.
"Without a trace, not now, you have us, there are so many brothers. Xiao Che comforted.
None of them knew what the situation was like at the Snow Traceless family. Snow Without a Trace has never been mentioned.
However, Xiao Che and the others knew that their hometown and family were the pain points in Xue Wuji's heart. Therefore, no one ever mentioned it around him. Now, for the safety of his brothers, Xue Wuxian can't take care of it so much. No matter what it is, he will take the initiative to face it.
Besides, Zi Wuji and his group, after ten days of traveling, finally arrived at the place called Xipo.
The Scouts sent out by Zi Wou-Ki earlier found nothing, but the only thing that was certain was that the place was safe.
When they got here, everyone searched carefully, and sure enough, they found some clues.
They continued to probe in this direction. Finally, in a hidden cave, traces of members of the Wenren family were found.
It made them a little excited.
Immediately after that, they began to explore even more vigorously.
"Wuji, come and see, come here!" Somewhere, Wen Renjing found some disorganized footprints.
"These should be the clansmen who act with Grandpa. "Zi Wou-Ki found a rag, the material and the print were unique to the Wenren family.
Knowing this, he searched harder.
Wenren Zhantian was worthy of being the eighth rank of the Supreme Realm, and soon he explored the place where the Wenren family was.
However, the state of the Wenren family is not good now.
The old man Wenren has been injured a lot, and the clansmen of the Wenren family are doing their best to take care of him.
For this reason, they even stopped the pace of further evacuation.
Seeing these made Wenren Zhantian even more heartwarming.
"Grandpa!"
"Daddy!"
Wen Renjing and Wen Ren Zhantian saw the old man Wen Ren one after another.
"Zhantian, Jing'er, how did you find here!" Seeing the two of them appear, the people of the Wenren family were all smiling. The old man was very surprised.
"Dad, what the hell is going on? Who attacked you?" asked Wen Ren Zhantian.
"If I'm right, they're from the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance. The old man said.
By this time, his injuries had healed and he was much more ruthless.
Previously, he had almost single-handedly held back the enemy's footsteps. That's why he was injured so badly, otherwise, those people wouldn't have been able to keep him at all.
Hearing that people are fighting in the sky, even if they use spiritual power to heal the old man. The exercises of the Wenren family are all the same. They were able to heal each other's injuries, and Wen Renjing carefully examined the injuries of her clansmen, and there were basically no major problems, which made her much happier.
Previous fears were swept away.
Now they are going to continue the retreat.
"Wuji, Xiaojing, let's separate here, your grandfather and these clansmen I will personally bring them back. Go to the Ice City to find Xiao Che and them right away. After Wen Ren Zhantian finished healing the old man's wounds, he called Zi Wuji and Wen Renjing aside.
"Daddy, you're going to drive us away so soon!" Wen Renjing was in a good mood now. The most important grandfather was injured, but it was not very serious, which made her very happy.
"Okay, let's go here tomorrow. Zi Wuji thought the same way, but he didn't want to go directly to the Ice and Snow City to meet Xiao Che, Zi Wuji had his own plans.
Now that the Northern Yan Empire had suffered a series of blows, Zi Wouji knew that it would be useless if he didn't do something. So a bold idea came to his mind.
Just when Zi Wuji and the others found the people of the Wenren family, Xiao Che and the others had already arrived in the Ice and Snow City.
The City of Ice, as the name suggests, is a world of ice and snow. Here, everything is white. Except at night, you can hardly find a single bit of other color.
Snow Trail is very familiar with the roads here.
He took Xiao Che and them to the real Ice and Snow City Main City.
Although it is called a city, it is not guarded. In fact, the area here is very large, comparable to any country in the north.
In terms of strength, the Northern Yan Empire is a younger brother compared to it. Even for all the forces standing in the entire Qingyuan Continent, it is the Qingxuan family and the Xiao family of the Qingxuan Empire that can stabilize them.
Now they are surrounded by the people of the Ice City. Xiao Che: They don't like this feeling very much. I saw Xue Wuxian take out a parchment-like thing, and then puncture his finger, and a drop of blood dripped on it, which means that Xue Wuxian is the descendant who has the permission to enter it.
The army can't be brought, they are already stationed outside the city, and Snow Without a Trace is a descendant of the Ice and Snow City, but they don't enjoy any special benefits.
However, there is still permission to bring some friends here.
Now those who have entered the Ice and Snow City are Dongya, Xiao Che, Dongfang Ye, and these few people.
"Traceless, you're back!" Walking down the streets of the Ice and Snow City, Snow Traceless was suddenly stopped.
Xiao Che and the others looked up, it was an old man.
"Traceless, who is this?" Xiao Che asked.
"He is Uncle Zhong and the chief steward of my family. But I don't want to go back to that home now. "Snow Without a Trace is a little stubborn.
"Uncle Zhong is good. Xiao Che and the others greeted Uncle Zhong.
"Hello, you are Xiao Che, the youngest Great Sect Master of Alchemy of the Human Race. Originally, I didn't believe it, but now that I see the deity, it seems that you are even younger. Uncle Zhong said to Xiao Che.
"Uncle Zhong, you go and tell them to go back when I want, and now I don't want to go back. You can do me a favor though. Help us find a yard. Lives on your own. Xue Wuxian said calmly.
"Okay, I'll arrange it. With that, Uncle Zhong left here.
"Traceless, I'm getting more and more curious about your family now. "If Xiao Che's perception is not wrong, the previous Uncle Zhong, who was called the butler by Xue Wuxian before, actually has the cultivation of the Seven Grades of the Supreme Realm.
"I'll tell you when I have the chance. Xue Wuxian said.
Soon Uncle Zhong found a kind of mansion for them.
Led by Snow Without a Trace, they stayed here.
"Traceless, this has a lot of spirit coins. Dongfang Ye can sense the luxury of this big mansion.
It stands to reason that Dongfang Ye is not a person who has never seen the world, but now he is also attracted.
"No need, the entire Ice and Snow City belongs to the Xue family, who dares to charge the Traceless Prince! Besides, this place is the asset of the Xue family's own family. Uncle Zhong explained with a smile.
"Uncle Zhong, go back first. I'm all right here. Xue Wuxian asked Uncle Zhong away.
"Without a trace, I don't know what happened between you and your parents, but you have to remember it forever. They are your parents. It's warmer than me, a lonely person. Xiao Che also had a feeling.
Xue Wuxian looked at Xiao Che blankly, and he remembered that Xiao Che was an orphan, and he could imagine how much he longed for a complete family in Xiao Che's heart.
"Don't worry, I know it. Snow Traceless replied.
"What are we going to do next, how long are we going to stay here?" Xiao Che said.
"Xiao Che, do you know what is the most powerful thing about my Ice and Snow City?" asked Xue Wuxi.
"It should be an ice attribute spiritual skill and exercise. Xiao Che replied.
"Yes, that's true, but in addition to them, there is also an ice attribute spirit weapon. However, the cost of this spiritual weapon is very high. I now want all the Venerable Master Realm members in our team to use this Ice Attribute Spirit Weapon. Xue Wuxian said.
These days, Xiao Che and the others are not with Xue Wuxi, but everyone is doing their own thing.
"Ice Attribute Spirit Weapon! But it's not for me. Xiao Che said worriedly.
"No, the ice attribute also has a very special property, that is, it can accommodate different attributes, which means that even if you have the fire attribute, you can also control the ice attribute spirit weapon. Snow Traceless explained in detail.
"There is such a thing!" Xiao Che was also very surprised when he heard this.
"Uncle Zhong told me that in about ten days, all the ice attribute spirit weapons were successfully refined. Snow Without a Trace continued.
"So fast!" Xiao Che didn't expect it.
"It's time to slow down, and if it's on full fire, I believe, one day will be enough. "Snow Without a Trace is well aware of the Ice and Snow City's ability to create ice-type spiritual weapons.
Snow Without a Trace cultivates the exercises of the ice and snow attributes.
