The journey back was smooth. Many of the native creatures were hiding in their dens after the snowstorm arrived. They might fail to find their way back home if they continued to roam around outside.
The group did not have to follow the Rift of Tianshan Mountain to leave the mountain, they just needed to go downhill most of the time. Their first priority was to escape the snowstorm.
The higher the altitude, the deadlier a storm was. It was like a slow-moving avalanche. It turned the whole mountain white, including the Meadow and the Barren Ground which they had passed first. Even species with an outstanding cold resistance would struggle to survive the cold, let alone outsiders with not much cold resistance, such as humans!

Mo Fan could not help but turn around to look over the true land of ice and snow one last time after they reached a safe distance. The vast whiteness had devoured the blue sky and the mountain.
Even without the Rift of Tianshan Mountain, their journey to the Scar of Tianshan Mountain had been challenging. It would have been a lot worse if they had searched aimlessly for the way up in the Meadow, the Alpine, and the Valley of Glaciers. Their chance of survival would have dropped significantly; there were too many unknown factors, and situations that human Mages had never encountered before. The old folks were right. It did not matter what cultivation one possessed, they had to pay enough respect to the mountain!

The group finally made it back to Wanggui Town. Normally, everyone would have taken a nice hot shower and had a delicious meal, before enjoying a comfortable sleep after returning from an adventure.
However, they could not afford to make any contact with water after leaving Tianshan Mountain, not even hot water. Their skin had almost cracked apart from the cold. There was still ice that had not melted inside their skin and flesh. They had lost feeling in many body parts, like they had been injected with anesthetic. Many of the survivors were terrified when they discovered their bodies were like seriously damaged old machines that might stop operating at any second. It was the reason some Mages never woke up after falling unconscious on the mountain!
Mo Fan recovered rapidly. He was already enjoying the hot spring while the others were using traditional methods to drive the cold out of their bodies.

The wooden door swung open before Mu Mu Ningxue walked in with a basket containing her bathrobe, bath scent, and clothes. Her alluring silver-white hair was already tied up, revealing her flawless face and neck. Most importantly, she was only wearing a sling skirt since she was going to change into the bathrobe. The thin skirt was unable to conceal her bust.
Mu Ningxue was startled when she saw Mo Fan lying in the hot water.
“I’m sorry, I took the wrong door,” Mu Ningxue turned around and was going to close the door.
“No, it’s the right one, it’s your bath. I was just testing the water temperature for you. Mm… the temperature is just right. You should come inside,” Mo Fan smiled. He was getting restless.
“Well… you can enjoy the bath first. I’ll come later,” Mu Ningxue still insisted on closing the door.
“Xuexue, come here, I have something to discuss with you too. We have been together for so long. Why are you feeling embarrassed? We can finally relax. Let’s enjoy the bath together, drink some tea, and have a heart-to-heart chat and do something, uh, something meaningful,” Mo Fan said.
