Chapter 781: Chapter 416: May I Ask If I Qualify to Receive an Invitation?

Hoo...

Outside the window, snow was swirling in the wind.

In the laboratory, a group of students lost interest in their studies, huddling together to stare at the laptop screen, fixated on the live broadcast from the Celestial Wave Mansion.

Even though the scene wasn’t thrilling, and even somewhat monotonous and dull, they were still watching with wide eyes.

"The number of people in the live stream is increasing."

"Don’t they have jobs?"

"There are more and more comments as well."

[I have a feeling this treasure vault is about to have some big trouble]

[Who are these ten people that just came out? Members of the Immortal Committee?]

[The boss from the Dongguo District is going to rescue them!]

On screen, ten people at the top of the Celestial Wave Mansion lay on the ground, bodies curled, foreheads against red leaves, emitting white smoke, and trembling slightly.

Numerous talismans flew down from the sky like scattered butterflies, forming a blanket beneath them, lifting them off the scene.

Yang Zhan stared at the screen without blinking, quietly clenching his fists.

He was very worried that a conflict would erupt on-site, very afraid that his mother and the Great Immortal Mage of the Dark Side would clash!

Next to him, Guan Yue Ling, Chu Mian, and others sighed in relief.

"It’s good to get these ten injured people out of harm’s way."

Huang Sitong leaned close to the computer screen, feeling the presence of the two Ancient Immortal Masters in her mind, also watching the broadcast.

"Outside, things seem calm. But who knows how many inside the Great Treasure Vault have died? How many are still alive? How many are still fighting?"

...

Swish...

The noise of the car occasionally drifted into the compartment.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Oww oww oww!"

Inside the expedition vehicle, a group of foxes stared wide-eyed, faces full of bliss, following the instruction of the Ghost Eye Two detector to the next location.

"Ying ying ying!"

Flying Legs took a warm caramel macchiato from the med kit, giving each of the brothers a cup.

And soft sponge cakes were also shared among the brothers.

After all, the weather was too cold. They needed to consume enough calories in these extreme conditions to maintain their energy!

Thus, in the expedition vehicle, the group of foxes ate and drank.

Outside the vehicle, the treasure vault’s fierce wind howled, and white snow fell thickly, making the sky and earth gloomy, with temperatures inside the entire treasury dropping rapidly!

But atop the vehicle, a Snow Warm Pill emitted a soft glow, conjuring swirling hot air that completely covered a radius of twenty meters around the car, keeping the roaring wind and cold snow outside, blowing the snow off the ground, and melting the ice crust!

...

Inside the cave.

Two brothers, their bodies covered in talismans resembling snake hide, looked pale.

With these talismans drawn by the Master himself, they didn’t feel cold.

But the blinding white snow outside the cave brought them tremendous psychological pressure!

"The treasure vault seems impatient, wanting to freeze everyone to death quickly, leaving only one to make a wish."

"If one wishes here to advance to Sequence One, will it succeed?

"If such a wish is made, what would happen?"

The senior brother grinned.

"Master told me that this treasure vault actually isn’t that reliable.

"For overly excessive wishes, for wishes beyond its capabilities, it will... will cheat and refuse to grant them.

"Not only will it cheat, but it will also kill the wisher along with it.

"So... be cautious when making wishes, don’t be too extravagant, hahaha."

...

Among the ruins, within the broken walls.

A boy in polar expedition gear huddled in the corner, hooded, holding his head, covered in white snow, gradually blending into the shape of a snowman.

The endlessly ancient Fire Poison Mantis was hiding inside his hood.

At this moment, it bit lightly behind his ear, injecting a trace of fire poison.

"Ah!"

The boy was startled awake by the pain, but also felt warmth flow back from behind his ear into his cold body.

"Ha... it’s really tough."

His face hidden in the hood, he chuckled bitterly.

"It’s almost over, right?

"Have the others all frozen to death?

"Please let me make my wish soon, let me leave quickly!"

He still remembered the repeated instructions of the Green Blade Immortal Master, telling him what wish he needed to make... a strange wish.

It wasn’t to demand anything, nor to ask for anything, only to ask a question... whether the Green Blade Immortal was qualified to receive an invitation?

"What Master wants is that so-called invitation, right?

"But what exactly is that invitation?"

The boy didn’t know and didn’t bother to think, quietly huddled in the corner, waiting for all others to be frozen to death.

Step...

Step...

Suddenly, he vaguely heard footsteps coming through the snowstorm.

"Eh?"

He looked up, seeing a person stepping through the breaks in the ruined walls amidst the blizzard.

It was a laid-back boy, wearing a raincoat, swinging his shoulders and chin up high, slowly approaching.

The raincoat seemed peculiar, as it could make the swirling storm evade it!

"Hey, you’ve been hiding for so long, aren’t you tired? Aren’t you cold? Aren’t you exhausted?

"Don’t suffer in this snow anymore.

"Let me send you on your way."

Yu Cui raised his right hand, and a dirty, greasy, grimy black flame ignited at his fingertip.

...

Ripping...

In the office, Fang Xiaoyu opened a box of egg yolk pies, sharing them with Bai Mo and Coffee Claw.

While eating, they continued to watch the live broadcast.

"It’s a pity Qingyun isn’t here; she really loves those egg yolk pies."

Wu Qingyun was like a brick, moved wherever needed. Today, she was hurriedly sent to Hai City.
