However, Wei Huo stopped soon. The people and animals in the team were all listening to him. Chen Xuanyue did not have any traveling experience. She was only 19 years old. Besides, she had a Divine Sense. She could control domains, but only just a little. She was not that strong.
There was no need to mention the rocs. They were stunned when they saw the snow. Although the two of them had seen snow before, they had never walked across snow. The snow was too unfriendly, and their feet were not suited to walk on it.
Most importantly, they had to resist the power of the coffin’s domain.
“This speed is too slow.” Wei Huo added a layer to the coffin made of the Divine Wood and bronze. He then injected his Domain Force into the coffin. It seemed like it increased the coffin’s weight, but it locked Chen Xuanyue’s Domain Force in the coffin. That made the rocs feel relieved.
Chen Xuanyue was curious. “You know quite a lot. I hired a Master to make this coffin. Not everyone can add things to it.”
Wei Huo said, “When out alone, it’s best to know a little of everything. It’s better to rely on oneself than rely on others.”
Chen Xuanyue pursed her lips. “Only someone with a long life has the right to say that.”
The women of the Mystic Yin Tribe could only live for 20 years, so they were very envious of people who lived long lives.
Wei Huo led the way to the northwest. It was said that the Dragon Vein came from Kunlun Mountain. Wei Huo might be able to find the mysterious Kunlun Mountain through the Dragon Vein.
This time, they were much faster. However, the group was a little weird. A human, a little pixie, a trembling kitten, two rocs, and a coffin.
After traveling for a few days, the team arrived at a frozen glacier. They should have continued moving forward, but Chen Xuanyue suddenly said, “I want to eat fish!”
Chen Xuanyue was a glutton. She wanted to eat everything. In her words, life was short. There would be no more chances to eat if she didn’t eat now.
It seemed like she did not have much hope for the Dao Scripture. Death at the age of 20 was already the fate of her race. She could accept this calmly.
At that moment, the sounds of animals running were heard from afar. The ice surface vibrated as if a large group of creatures was coming over.
Wei Huo took a closer look and realized that there were seven to eight giant dogs. Each of them was about three meters tall and had long fur. There were a Border Collie, a German Shepherd, and a Husky. The rest were all pastoral dogs.
“There’s people there.” Chen Xuanyue blinked.
Wei Huo saw a person sitting on each dog’s back. The dogs were carrying a lot of luggage, and there were seven to eight sheep surrounding them. The image looked weird.
Chen Xuanyue was confused. “I’ve seen dogs shepherding sheep before, but is this sheep shepherding dogs?”
Wei Huo walked forward and said, “These are self-exploding sheep. They will self-destruct after death. They have been tamed and they are used to protect caravans.”
The dogs stopped in front of Wei Huo. The leader was a girl around 16 or 17 years old. She had her team stay in the distance while she jumped off the Border Collie and walked over.
Her whole body was covered tightly, and only her face was visible. Her eyelashes and eyebrows were covered in thin frost.
The girl knew that Wei Huo was not simple. Even though it was such a cold day, Wei Huo was only wearing thin clothes. The two rocs behind him were even more awe-inspiring. Although they did not deliberately emit any pressure, the dogs were anxious and did not dare move forward. What was most bizarre was that the roc were pulling a coffin. The coffin made Wei Huo’s team look even weirder.
The young lady walked over but stopped about 30 meters away from Wei Huo. She was brave, but she was also careful enough. While maintaining a 30-meter distance, she asked loudly, “Who are you?”
Wei Huo replied, “I’m a traveling merchant. I just came out of the Naga camp.”
