Amidst the dense snow trees that resemble a dreamlike scene at the center of the Ice Snow Desolate Forest, stands a huge ancient Snow City, looking like a giant snow beast crouching on this earth. This city is the legendary Ice Snow Wilderness City!

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ugh!" But at this moment, waves of painful, heartrending screams continuously erupted from within the Ice Snow Wilderness City, as splashes of bright red blood stained the snow-white city walls, turning them blood-red.

"Haha! Hahahahaha!" Amidst the painful shrieks, these were occasionally accompanied by gleeful laughter, the laughter of those Hanl Family slaughterers.

Lives were being ruthlessly taken by their hands, bringing them satisfaction! To these high-ranking Hanl Family members, these lives might be no different from pigs and dogs, right?

The world is ruthless, treating the weak as pigs and dogs!

For the first time, the Ice Snow Wilderness and Ice Snow Wilderness City suffered such a calamity, turning this place into a veritable Hell on Earth!

…

"Hanl...Hanl Wei led the Hanl Family into our Ice Snow Wilderness City!" Qingg Yan exclaimed, her eyes widening in shock and horror. She was filled with extreme terror as she spoke again:

"My father and mother are still in the Ice Snow Wilderness City! I have to go back to save them, or else the Hanl Family will kill them!"

"No need, girl, don't worry. In our Ice Snow Wilderness City, there's an ancient secret passage leading to a Secret Forest. Your parents have already escaped through that passage."

"Ah! Is what you said true, Lady? Have my father and mother really escaped? Really?" Upon hearing her parents had escaped, Qingg Yan was surprised, yet the worry and terror on her face began to fade quietly away.

"Why would I lie to you? You don't need to worry about your parents' safety," Snow Lady replied.

Then she spoke again, "We can't stay here for long. Those savage Hanl Family members, after massacring everyone in Ice Snow Wilderness City, might come here next. We must quickly head to the Ice Snow Secret Forest!"

The Ice Desolate Mirror could hide us from the people of Gu'e Mountain, but it surely won't deceive those Hanl Family experts, especially that old Hanl Wei!"

"Snow Lady, where is the Ice Snow Secret Forest?" Hearing the words 'Secret Forest,' Qingg Yan asked, her face full of confusion.

Growing up in the Ice Snow Wilderness, she had never heard of the "Ice Snow Secret Forest."

"I will take you there, and you'll know. Besides, your parents are heading to the Ice Snow Secret Forest. If we go now, we can reunite with them," Snow Lady said.

"Really? My parents are heading to the Ice Snow Secret Forest! If we go there, we can meet them? That's... that's wonderful!" Qingg Yan rejoiced when she learned that her parents were going to the same place.

Her parents had escaped danger, and she had not seen them for a long time, so Qingg Yan missed them dearly.

At this time, Qingg Yan turned to Shi Feng and said, "Shi Feng, things aren't looking good. Both Gu'e Mountain and the Hanl Family are after you, trying to kill you! You should come with us to the Ice Snow Secret Forest."

As Qingg Yan finished speaking to Shi Feng, before Shi Feng had a chance to respond, Snow Lady resolutely said, "No, he cannot go to the Ice Snow Secret Forest!"

"Ah? Lady, why can't Shi Feng go? If we all go to the Ice Snow Secret Forest, and Shi Feng remains alone, how is that possible?" Qingg Yan quickly turned her worried gaze to Snow Lady.

With Snow Lady's Ice Desolate Mirror, Shi Feng has avoided detection by Gu'e Mountain. But without it, faced with pursuit from Gu'e Mountain and Hanl Family experts, he would be extremely dangerous.

Snow Lady resolutely spoke again, "Our ancestors set the rule that not everyone can enter the Ice Snow Secret Forest! The rules of our ancestors cannot be broken!"

"But...but Lady, if Shi Feng is found by them, he'll be killed! Lady, you are the master of Ice Snow Wilderness City, can you change the rule, or make an exception?" Qingg Yan pleaded again.

Once more, Qingg Yan begged Snow Lady for Shi Feng's sake.

"Forget it, don't ask anymore. I won't go," Shi Feng said. Upon hearing Qingg Yan plead with Snow Lady once more, Shi Feng promptly spoke.

"That's not right, Shi Feng, it's too dangerous!" Qingg Yan exclaimed.

"Actually, there is a way for him to go to the Ice Snow Secret Forest," Snow Lady said, grinning at Qingg Yan.

Hearing this, Qingg Yan's eyes widened with joy as she asked Snow Lady, "Really? Is there a way? Lady, what should we do?"

With a unique smile on her face, Snow Lady said, "Girl, as long as he agrees to marry you, he will be considered one of us in Ice Snow Wilderness City. Once he is considered one of us, he can enter the Ice Snow Secret Forest."

"This...this...Lady...this..." Qingg Yan, upon hearing Snow Lady's words, was initially stunned, followed by a flush of red on her cheeks. She lowered her head slowly, and with the corner of her eyes, she discreetly glanced at Shi Feng to see his reaction to Snow Lady's words.

At this moment, Qingg Yan was both nervous and expectant, filled with fear. Her heart was pounding, and even her breathing had become rapid.

Following Snow Lady's words, Shi Feng spoke coldly, "No need! I don't need to go to your Ice Snow Secret Forest."

Snow Lady's words clearly carried a threatening tone. It was like she threatened him to marry Qingg Yan, or he would not be able to enter the Ice Snow Secret Forest and would then suffer from Gu'e Mountain and Hanl Family pursuit.

It was as if without her, he was certain to die!

But Shi Feng was not someone easily threatened by others!

He would rather die than allow anyone to coerce him into doing anything!

"He...he...as expected..." Qingg Yan heard Shi Feng's words, and the anxiety in her heart instantly turned into desolation. Her heart became intensely cold.

"He...he would rather be killed by strong enemies than marry me, Qingg Yan? Haha, I...am I really that distasteful to him? I knew it, it was all just wishful thinking!"

With self-mockery, Qingg Yan once again spoke to herself in her heart.
