Chapter 624: A Frost Beauty

Beneath the blizzard-filled sky, the two Great Gods, Cheng Border and Xu Yiyu, floated straight down, landing steadily on the ground.

Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei, who clearly lacked such advanced Snow Step and Snow Dance skills, were guided down by Rong Taotao’s Snow Ghost Hand, landing safely beside Cheng Border as well.

Amidst the vast snowstorm, Cheng Border immediately raised a large flag. But even as the wind and snow seemed to freeze in place, he still couldn’t see any sign of the Frost Beauty.

At the same time, Rong Taotao shot forward, a Snowball Cat perched on his head.

White Lantern Paper Cages and Luminous Lantern Paper Cages drifted above their heads, illuminating the pitch-black, blizzard-swept night. The moment Rong Taotao drew his Heaven-piercing Halberd, everyone knew a battle was imminent.

“Grrr… grrr…”

“Hiss… ROAR!!!” The sounds of the Snowflake Wolves snarling and tearing grew clearer.

In Rong Taotao’s view, a massive Snowflake Wolf was on top of the Frost Beauty, its sharp claws digging into her abdomen and lower leg. It opened its cavernous maw, aimed for her long leg, and bit down hard.

It tore away her Snow Cloak and a huge chunk of flesh in an instant, scattering blood and shredded meat across the ground.

But the Frost Beauty’s struggles were weak and helpless, as if the Snow Dragon Tornado she had cast earlier had consumed the last of her strength.

Ordinarily, she shouldn’t have been in such a pathetic state. Beyond the Third Wall, the ice-attribute Soul Power was so dense that she could have absorbed it on the spot and cast another Snow Dragon Tornado.

She must have lost too much blood. Her mind was foggy and her body unresponsive, which was why her resistance was so feeble…

Rong Taotao was certain. ‘There’s no way the Snowflake Wolves forced her into this condition. She must have been severely injured before she even ran into them!’

Seeing their prey had finally collapsed, the rest of the Snowflake Wolf Pack immediately pounced, ready to enjoy a delicious meal…

“You beasts!” Rong Taotao roared, violently throwing the Heaven-piercing Halberd from his right hand.

SHLICK! The sound of a blade piercing flesh!

A Snowflake Wolf was instantly skewered, turning into a “Wolf Meat Skewer.” Carried by immense momentum, the Heaven-piercing Halberd flew off into the vast blizzard, taking the wolf with it.

At the same time, a Snow Burst Ball began to spin rapidly in Rong Taotao’s left hand.

Unlike everyone else’s small Snow Burst Balls, Rong Taotao’s had already reached the master level. It spun rapidly in his hand, growing to the size of a soccer ball!

BANG!

As he charged forward, Rong Taotao threw a single Snow Burst Ball and completely blasted apart the swarming pack. The knockback effect was astonishing!

‘So this is the terrifying power of a Master-level Snow Burst…’

“Whimper… whimpe~r…”

“Awooo…” The injured whimpers of the Snowflake Wolves rose one after another, and the rest of the pack in the rear slowed their advance.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the humans, the Snowflake Wolf Pack acted on instinct. Instead of attacking immediately, they fanned out, circling around to surround the group of four.

“Ngh…” Beneath his feet, the Frost Beauty let out a soft groan. Her clothes were in tatters, and she was drenched in blood.

She opened her grayish-white eyes, which looked as if they were clouded by cataracts. Her gaze was vacant as she looked out at the world, but all she could see was the back of a figure.

Rong Taotao now stood over her, his feet planted on either side of her body, guarding her with his Heaven-piercing Halberd in hand.

Naturally, in the Frost Beauty’s blurred vision, all she could make out was Rong Taotao’s back and… that distinctive head of natural curls, covered in frost and snow.

“Hah…” The next moment, the Frost Beauty’s vision blurred once more. Her head lolled to the side, and she passed out completely.
