In this vast ice mountain stretching thousands of miles, constant streams of ferocious beasts both walking on land and flying in the sky, tried to attack. But somehow, they would quickly retreat as soon as they got close.
After two months of traveling on the snowy mountain, Feng Tianlan finally understood why the two Continents were difficult to get back and forth — the extreme cold and constant emergence of ferocious beasts were things that people of Guiyuan Continent could not overcome.
Even people on Xuantian Continent who wanted to traverse this vast ice mountain stretching thousands of miles would pay the ultimate price. So, no one would pay the price and go to what they thought of as a small place.
The cold wind screeched, and fluttering snow floated down. The footprints recently left were instantly covered by snow.
Si Mobai clasped hands tightly with Feng Tianlan and raised his hand to help her sweep the fallen snow off her head as he said, “We’ll walk for another hour and then we’ll be able to exit to Xuantian Continent.”
“Are we reaching Xuantian Continent soon?” Luo Yunzhu asked in a trembling voice because it was too cold. It was cold to the extreme, especially when they were about to reach, and the cloak on her body did not keep her as warm as before.
Feng Tianlan looked at the horizon behind the fluttering snow and gently said, “We’re reaching soon.”
They were nearing Xuantian Continent. She had returned to Xuantian Continent after being away for two years.
Shen Family, Shen Yunya and Jiang Ying!
Did you ever think that Shen Qingdai would come back?
“That’s great. My legs will be gone if I’ve to walk on any further,” said Zhang Tiancheng, who was about to collapse from exhaustion. They could still travel on flying beasts before. But as they got closer, there seemed to be a restriction at high altitudes and they simply could not fly.
Xi Jin slowly walked behind. His gaze could not help but fall upon Feng Tianlan. Along the road, she either clasped hands with Si Mobai, walked with their arms around each other or let Si Mobai carry her.
Alone at the side, he could see that the two people were happy together.
She was clearly a stranger and someone w of no concern to him, yet he always could not help looking at her. He felt that it was nice looking at her in this way.
“It’s the first month of the lunar year,” said Xi Jin, turning his gaze away. He looked up at the edge of the sky. After they got out and walked for another month, they would reach Dongshu Nation.
And he was going to be married in another three months’ time.
Yes, he was going to get married. He was going to fulfill Dai’er’s will and marry Ya’er, giving her a life of happiness. He wanted to treat Ya’er the same as how he did towards Dai’er.
Even if he was unwilling to, once he left the snowy mountain he had to accept the reality that Dai’er was really dead.
Feng Tianlan glanced at him and asked with feigned ignorance, “Since you like someone, why are you marrying another?”
Hearing Feng Tianlan’s question, Xi Jin lifted his eyes and looked at her. He did not answer but smiled mildly.
Probably it was because he loved too much.
He would fulfill any wishes that Dai’er had, even if she asked him to marry someone else — not to mention it was her last wish. How could he bear for Dai’er to die with a remaining grievance and no reprieve?
Feng Tianlan frowned and looked up at Si Mobai. She saw that he just shook his head.
They did not know what exact means Shen Yunya had employed to make Xi Jin so willing to marry her. Even in the case of knowing that Tu Xiupei was fake, she especially wanted to know how Shen Yunya gave a plausible explanation in the end.
But in any case, she would absolutely not let Xi Jin marry Shen Yunya. There were still three months’ time. She had enough time to destroy the forthcoming nuptials. If it did not work, she would directly gatecrash and destroy the wedding!
In any case, Xi Jin must not marry Shen Yunya!
Si Mobai saw that a thin layer of snow had gathered on Feng Tianlan’s head again and reached out to help her brush it off. Instead, he saw that she slightly moved her head aside to duck away.
