Ye Chen felt as though his entire body was being gripped by an invisible hand. Fear caused his body to stiffen. His expression did not change, but when that slippery and sticky red tongue licked his cheek, his facial muscles could not help but twitch. He felt nauseous and was about to vomit.
Using the dim light of the flames, Ye Chen gradually saw the entire body of the seductive woman in front of him. He felt his stomach churn. The light of the flames shone behind her. It was a snake's body covered in fine green scales. It was as thick as a water bucket. The scales shone with a cold light and looked very smooth.
Ye Chen's heart twitched. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Who are you?"
The seductive woman looked at him with a smile. "You've never heard of me? No wonder you're not afraid at all. Sigh, how disappointing. But it's also very interesting. Let me tell you. I don't know if you've heard of the Three Demons of the Snow Region?"
Ye Chen frowned. "No."
The seductive woman with a human face and a snake's body wrapped around him. Her red forked tongue twisted in the air. He could vaguely see two sharp fangs between her lips. "So you don't know anything … Let me tell you. There are many monsters in the Snow Region. They were all captured from the Dragon Abyss Valley in the ancient world. Originally, we obeyed the orders of the Ice Goddess to guard the corpse of the Goddess of Light …"
"Among these monsters, the three strongest are called the Three Demons of the Snow Region …" She looked seductively at Ye Chen. "As for me, I'm one of the Three Demons, the Snow Demon."
Ye Chen's expression changed slightly. He looked at the seductive woman's beautiful face. He did not expect her to be one of the three most terrifying monsters in the Snow Region. He thought for a moment and frowned. "If I'm not wrong, the Goddess of Light died a long, long time ago. If you were arranged to guard her from then on, such a long time should be enough to corrode your life force, right?"
"Long time?"
The woman with a human face and a snake goddess could not help but chuckle. "I can see that you still have the power of chaos in your body. It looks like you're just a minor god emperor. Well, to you, it is indeed a long time.
However, once you attain the Epoch Realm, you'll know what eternal life is. "
Ye Chen frowned and did not continue the topic. "You're saying that the corpse of the Radiant Goddess was buried here?"
"Of course not."
The snake-bodied woman shook her head, her expression somewhat innocent and regretful. "The Snow Goddess' trusted followers betrayed us and sealed the strongest few of us in this Dead Souls Abyss. The corpse of the Goddess of Light is not here, but in the Sacred Mountain."
Ye Chen glanced at her. Under the illumination of the flames, the warm yellow light shone on her delicate and pretty face. If one didn't look at her ugly snake body, just her beautiful face and her slightly sorrowful expression was enough to move any man's heart.
"Right."
The snake-bodied woman looked at Ye Chen curiously. "How did you get in here? You're not strong enough to enter this place. Did you eavesdrop on something and get sealed in here?
That can't be right. You're so weak that one slap could kill you. There's no need to waste energy to seal you. "
She looked innocent and curious, her pitch-black eyes as beautiful as the sea of stars.
Ye Chen did not say it directly. His expression did not change as he said, "It's nothing. The Bronze Paragon of the Primal Chaos Realm came to the Snow Region. During the great battle, the entrance to the seal was torn open and I was sucked in."
"What?" The seductive woman was shocked. "You're saying that the Bronze Paragon of the Primal Chaos Realm came?
Are you sure? That's not right. According to the time, they shouldn't have come to the Ancient World so early. Otherwise, they would have been killed by the World Core of the Ancient World. At this time, they would only dare to send some of their subordinates to scout the way. It would take at least a million years for them to sacrifice themselves. "
Ye Chen was puzzled. "What World Core?"
"Don't worry about that." The seductive woman stared at him. "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"No."
Ye Chen shook his head. "The Bronze Paragon did not use the Ancient World as a springboard to come to the Snow Region. Instead, he used some unknown method to tear open the space barrier of the Snow Region and came in."
From the seductive woman's words, he had guessed most of the reason for this matter. Therefore, he concealed the fact that the Bronze Paragon had come because of his breakthrough. Otherwise, this snake-bodied, human-faced monster in front of him would have been so angry that she would have swallowed him whole.
No wonder the Bronze Paragon said that he was indebted to him. It turned out that his breakthrough had broken through the space barrier. With his strength, he would be invincible in the entire Snow Region. The corpse of the Goddess of Light would belong to him. With his strength, if he could swallow and refine the corpse of the Goddess of Light, his strength would increase by leaps and bounds. He might even become a master on the same level as the Goddess of Light!
"So that's how it is …" The seductive woman muttered, her expression somewhat absent-minded. She seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, she sighed. "The Bronze Paragon has come here. The Snow Region will no longer exist. Unless that bastard breaks the barrier that the Ice Goddess placed on the corpse of the Goddess of Light and swallows the corpse, his strength will increase greatly. Otherwise, there is no hope … Legend has it that the Bronze Paragon was a bloodthirsty man when he first appeared. Although he restrained himself later on, it was difficult to change his nature …"
"I'm afraid that the Snow Region will be plunged into misery and suffering."
She sighed, her brows furrowed with unspeakable worry.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside. Then, a young man's voice was heard. It was filled with the unique charm of a man. A slender figure slowly walked out from the darkness. "Little Scale, what are you doing here? Eh, there is a human."
Ye Chen's body shook as he looked behind the snake-bodied woman.
Under the dim light of the flames, a slender man wearing a silver-white robe stood quietly in the darkness. His long blue hair was like a curtain of rain, gently hanging over his shoulders. His flying blue eyebrows were as sharp as daggers, and he was filled with a cold battle spirit. However, his face had a smile that made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze, which made him even more charming.
…
Sacred Mountain.
Nine men and women wearing the uniforms of the Snow Region's messengers were leading ten snow slaves of different genders. They were walking through the dark underground tunnel behind the hall at the bottom of the Sacred Mountain.
This tunnel was a downward slope. There were stairs leading down into the darkness. Quaint oil lamps were on the walls, reflecting a warm yellow light on the walls and everyone's figures.
The heavens and the earth were silent. Only the sound of scattered footsteps echoed in the pitch black tunnel.
The snow slaves following behind the nine messengers were all at least rank 3. At this moment, they were all quietly following behind, but their eyes could not help but look around. They had never been to this mysterious tunnel before, and had never even heard of it. They did not expect that the nine messengers would bring them here, and they did not know what they were going to do.
What puzzled them the most was that there were only nine messengers here. Where were the other three messengers?
Did they really go out to fight a powerful enemy like they said?
What kind of enemy would require the three messengers to go together?
Everyone's heart was heavy, but they couldn't help but think back to the sword wielding woman who was fighting on the snowy slope. They felt a chill in their hearts.
Behind them, at the entrance of the pitch-black underground tunnel, a figure flashed and appeared in front of the tunnel like a ghost. He looked down at the pitch-black tunnel under his feet and was silent for a while. Then, he flashed and entered the tunnel like a white cloud. He floated in without making the slightest sound.
…
Outside the Holy Mountain.
Sifiglan and Schmidt rushed up the steep mountain like majestic eagles. Then, with a flip of their bodies, they landed on the edge of the cliff. Their fluttering robes landed softly like soft clouds. What appeared in front of them was a vast field covered in snow. At the end of the field, in the white wind and snow, there were a few vague shadows of magnificent palaces standing.
"In front of them is the palace of the messengers." Schmit raised his hand and pointed.
"Yes." Sifigland nodded and gently put down Zero, who had been in his arms.
As soon as Zero's feet touched the ground, he still felt a little weak in his legs. He was dazzled by the lightning speed. It took him a while to steady himself.
"Wow …" He was stunned by the scene in front of him. "It's so magnificent. The sky and the ground are all white. It's so beautiful."
"Let's go." Sifigland took the lead.
After a while, they arrived in front of the magnificent ice palace. Sifigland looked inside and frowned. "Why is there no one inside?"
Schmit was stunned for a moment, then walked to the door and looked inside. Sure enough, there was no one inside. He turned to look at Sifigland and thought for a moment. "Maybe the messengers have something to do. I'll take you to see the other messengers."
Sifigland nodded.
Schmit took her and Zero around a few kilometers and came to a magnificent ice palace. Sifigland glanced at it and frowned. "There's no one here either."
Schmit was stunned for a moment and walked to the door to check. Sure enough, there was no one here. His expression was a little strange. Since he was appointed as a snow slave, he had only seen the messengers not in the palace once. They had gone out to quell a snow beast riot.
But he had never seen two messengers not in the Holy Mountain.
He turned around and looked at the empty snowy ground. His gaze extended into the distance, and he suddenly had a bad premonition. "You guys wait here. I'll go take a look." He threw down these words, and his figure disappeared into thin air.
Sifigland was not anxious. He just frowned and pondered.
Zero stood behind her and looked around. He did not dare to say anything.
Not long after, Schmit came back. His expression was very bad. "All the messengers are not here. I don't know where they went. This situation has never happened before. It's unimaginable."
