Unfortunately, when the middle-aged man got rid of the sneaky wolf and rushed forward in Lin Tianyun’s direction. He found that Lin Tianyun and the wolf were nowhere to be seen now. Guilt immediately flushed into his heart as he quickly searched the surroundings.
“What’s going on?” At this moment, Qin Ye arrived at the scene and asked solemnly. He had already woken up when the Winter Wolves appeared and joined the fight. However, the battle scene was a bit chaotic. He didn’t have time to care about others much.
The middle-aged man was stuttered. “I… That boy… He…”
Qin Ye quickly scanned the place and discovered Lin Tianyun had disappeared. His body tensed up as he asked coldly. “Stop stuttering and tell me everything!”
Under Qin Ye’s presence, the middle-aged man quickly explained what had happened.
Qin Ye’s brows tightly locked together. “Form a team and spread out. I want to see his remains.”
“Yes!” The middle-aged man replied readily and quickly went to find his comrades. .𝒐𝙧𝒈
“What happened, Young Master Qin?” At this moment, Lin Musong walked toward Qin Ye and pretended to ask in confusion.
Qin Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Lin Tianyun is missing after helping my people.”
“Ah? How could it be?” Lin Musong had an exaggerated expression, but even a fool could see it was fake.
“I’ve organized people to look for him now.” Qin Ye said and walked away.
“Well, I have to thank Young Master Qin then.” Lin Musong said with a grin. He planned to kill Lin Tianyun, but he didn’t expect him to disappear just like that without doing anything. He felt incredibly good and returned to his tent in a good mood. He couldn’t wait to go back and let Lin Qianxue come out alone.
***
“Phew…” A few kilometers away from the camp, Lin Tianyun looked at the Winter Wolf’s remains with relief. With his current strength, fighting the winter wolf alone was difficult. Thankfully, he managed to hit the wolf’s vital point when he jumped onto it.
Lin Tianyun quickly threw his clothes away and changed into new clothes before finding the direction and moving toward the mountain peak.
As he approached the peak, the snowstorm came to a standstill, and the whole forest became extremely quiet, so much so that it could make a person’s heart stop beating in anxiety.
Lin Tianyun was confused by the sudden change in the atmosphere. He raised his vigilance to the maximum while continuing forward.
He was currently in a rather open area, and so the thing he needed to do first and foremost was to find a relatively hidden place that would be suitable for him to hide himself.
After walking for an hour, Lin Tianyun found a small cave under a hill in front of him. This cave was relatively hidden. As long as he found something to block the entrance, he believed no one could find it.
Lin Tianyun hesitated for a moment and decided to take a look. After all, he started to get tired now.
The cave entrance was around two meters wide. It was enough for an ordinary adult to enter alone. Lin Tianyun used his torch to observe the entrance carefully and didn’t discover any trace of the beast. Undoubtedly, nothing had visited this place for a long time.
Lin Tianyun began to carefully enter the cave. He exerted his all to keep his aura restrained. With every step he took, he had to ensure there was nothing strange on the ground. He simply didn’t want to startle any potential existence here.
When Lin Tianyun moved his torch around, he suddenly noticed the wall was emitting blue light. And when he looked closer, he discovered the entire wall was actually filled with unidentified blue stones that were smooth like jade. It also emitted a cold aura, even colder than the snow outside.
“What is this…?” Lin Tianyun muttered to himself as his body shivered involuntarily.
Suddenly, Lin Tianyun couldn’t help but sense an unharmonious feeling that was difficult to put into words.
Bang!
Before he could process the information, the cave entrance abruptly closed with a loud bang. Lin Tianyun was shocked and hurriedly moved to the supposed to be the entrance.
“What the hell!?” Lin Tianyun confirmed that the entrance had become a solid wall. It was impossible for him to dig through it.
He couldn’t help swallowing nervously. Was he going to be locked in here forever?… No! Mom is waiting for me. I can’t stay here forever!
Thinking of this, Lin Tianyun came to a decision. Since he couldn’t go out, moving forward was the only way left. He didn’t hesitate anymore and began to venture deep into the cave.
As he went further, the path continued to expand, and the coldness grew increasingly. Layer upon layer of frost appeared on Lin Tianyun’s body, making his entire body numb. However, the will to survive continued to drive him forward.
He didn’t know how long he walked, but when he regained his sense again, he already found himself in a spacious area with a small pond at the center.
Lin Tianyun subconsciously looked toward the pond covered with an icy mist, his eyes immediately wide open because he saw a blue object floating in the middle of the pond.
“F… Frozen Heart Lotus!” Lin Tianyun exclaimed in shock. The numbness in his body was swept away instantly.
He hurriedly stumbled forward, trying to get a closer view. All of a sudden, he caught a glimpse of a figure leaning against a boulder through the corner of his eyes, causing him to halt his step.
From the initial shock, Lin Tianyun completely calmed down, as the figure was no other than a human skeleton. Judging by the clothes and accessories on the skeleton, he believed this person should have a noble background.
Lin Tianyun hesitated slightly and decided to walk over to take a look.
Looking at the skeleton, Lin Tianyun didn’t find anything strange. It seemed like this person didn’t suffer from a fatal wound before his death… How did he end up here then?
While he was thinking, he suddenly discovered a small book hiding behind the clothes. He clasped his hands together and said. “I’m sorry, Senior.” Afterward, he picked the book up and carefully opened it.
“My name is Yu Sheng. People called me Devil Sovereign.” That was the first sentence Lin Tianyun saw….
