Chapter 108: Holy Saint Snow Mountain

“By the way, tell me what’s on this Holy Saint Snow Mountain.” Qin Xiaoxi’s question pulled Jiang Yun back from his thoughts.

“You’ll find out when you get there.” Jiang Yun didn’t feel like talking.

“Tell me, I’m just curious,” Qin Xiaoxi muttered. She seemed to have remembered something, and her eyes revealed a hint of devilish. “Don’t tell me you don’t know anything, too?”

“Nonsense.” Jiang Yun felt both angry and amused at the same time. However, Qin Xiaoxi was a woman. It was fine if she was only a woman, but she was also the second daughter of the Qin family, so he couldn’t do anything to her.

“Then I gave you the chance already, hurry up and tell me. It’s too boring if we don’t talk on the way.”Qin Xiaoxi played with her hair.

Jiang Yun turned to glance at her.

He had not noticed her earlier.

Qin Xiaoxi was not wearing the same heavy makeup as she had at the banquet yesterday. She had only put on a little bit of makeup, but for some reason, she looked even better than she did yesterday.

“The Holy Saint Snow Mountain…”

“Uhuh? The Holy Saint Snow Mountain.” Qin Xiaoxi’s interest was piqued again when she heard this word.

Yes, she was more curious than anyone else. She wanted to know more about the places on the mainland that she had never been to before. As for the Northern Region, the desolate place which she had been told was isolated from the world since she was young, naturally, she could not let it go.

“Rumor has it that there is a Snowmen Clan under the Holy Saint Snow Mountain.”

Jiang Yun thought for a while and then slowly said these words.

“You seem to have mentioned this before, but… These snowmen, could it be…” Qin Xiaoxi shook her head and began to reimagine the appearance of the snowmen in her mind, but no matter what, she still thought that they were supposed to look cute.

“This is not the kind of snowman that you’re imagining. These snowmen are not those snowmen.” Jiang Yun held his forehead and shook his head helplessly. He could roughly guess that Qin Xiaoxi was probably imagining the type of snowman which constituted of a big sphere and a small sphere, with a carrot stuck in the middle of the small sphere.

“I thought as much.” Qin Xiaoxi nodded, but she immediately felt that something was wrong. “Hey, you were the one who stopped halfway through talking, okay? Can’t you give me some space to imagine?”

Jiang Yun only smiled lightly, then he continued, “According to legend, the Snowmen Clan is a group of creatures who are taller than courtyards, with burly bodies and silver-white fur all over their bodies. They have infinite strength and have their own language. They are very good at imitating.”

“They sound like white-furred gorillas.” Qin Xiaoxi could not help but frown slightly.

Jiang Yun nodded.

“Hmm… That’s true. They are big white-furred gorillas.”

“That’s right!” Qin Xiaoxi quickly agreed and sighed.

“However, these white-furred gorillas are not gorillas at all. They are more intelligent than gorillas. They have lived at the foot of the Holy Saint Snow Mountain for a long time and suffered from the ravages of snowstorms. Over the past few hundred years, they have been able to withstand any extreme low temperatures. Moreover… Their outer skin have become extremely hard due to this. Ordinary swords and sabers can not cut through their rough and fleshy bodies.

“And then?”

“These white-furred snowmen live in the Northern Region all year round. If one saw any strangers, one would naturally devour them. Half of those who went to the Northern Region to search for treasures probably died at the hands of these white-furred snowmen.”

“That’s it? The white-furred snowmen can’t be the only creatures in the Northern Region, right?” Qin Xiaoxi didn’t think much of it. She thought to herself, the Northern Region that many people spoke of as extremely dangerous couldn’t possibly only have the white-furred snowmen, right. She thought that at least there would be something very dangerous.

“Of course not.”

“Then what else? ? Hurry up.” Qin Xiaoxi was a little anxious about Jiang Yun’s introduction. It was the first time she saw someone dawdle so much while introducing something.

“Other than the white-furred snow monsters, there is an even more shocking rumor. Of course, this is only what my Master told me.”

At this point, Jiang Yun fell into silence again.

This drove Qin Xiaoxi completely round the bend.

“Hey… Why did you stop talking halfway?”

Jiang Yun ignored her and continued to ponder on something. This made Qin Xiaoxi very angry. What she hated the most was the people who would fall into silence halfway through a story, and it seemed that Jiang Yun liked to do exactly this.

“You shouldn’t be called Jiang Yun, just change your name to Jiang Ban(Half) !”Qin Xiaoxi mumbled at the side.

However, she didn’t expect Jiang Yun to hear her!

“Jiang Ban? What are you talking about?” Jiang Yun looked at her in confusion.

Qin Xiaoxi was instantly speechless. It seemed that everyone who came down from Mount God of Heaven Mountain had such sharp ears? Qin Xiaoxi thought that only she could hear what she said, but she didn’t expect Jiang Yun to directly catch her.

“It’s nothing…”

Jiang Yun really felt that Qin Xiaoxi was someone who could bring joy. With a curious person accompanying him, perhaps the journey wouldn’t be so boring.

“I’m still thinking about how to say it,” Jiang Yun replied with a faint smile. Then, he cleared his throat and prepared to continue telling Qin Xiaoxi about the legends of the Holy Saint Snow Mountain.

“It’s said that there was originally no Holy Saint Snow Mountain in the Northern Region. All that was there was a piece of permafrost that had been covered by ice and snow for thousands of years. But… Everything changed when the Frost Dragon of the Northern Region appeared. This Frost Dragon was several miles long and more than a thousand feet wide when it spread its wings. No one knew where it came from. Of course, there were also people who said that it came from another mainland that was unknown to us. After all… Until now, no one has crossed the Holy Saint Snow Mountain, and no one knows whether there are other continents beyond the Northern Region.”

“Then how did the Holy Saint Snow Mountain come to be?” Qin Xiaoxi was excited again.

“The year the Frost Dragon appeared, cold wind raged across the entire mainland, and the people had no way to live. Countless people died in the extreme cold. Most of those who survived died because of the lack of food. At that time, there were very few cultivators. However, for the sake of the safety of the mainland, they risked their lives to go to the Northern Region together in an attempt to suppress this terrifying Frost Dragon by joining their forces.”

“I guess… The final result probably wasn’t satisfactory.”

“That’s indeed the case. The Frost Dragon’s body was too huge, and its exterior was extremely tough. Moreover, its body emitted an extremely cold power. Ordinary people would be frozen into ice before they even got close to it. The battle between the cultivators and the Frost Dragon lasted for half a year.
