Xiang Xue'er couldn't help but laugh and shake her head. Qingtian scratched her head in embarrassment. ”Aiya, Duck, I'm actually not as outstanding as you say.”

As soon as Duck heard Qingtian's words, he started to shout, ”Qingtian, are you crazy? I'm not praising you, you idiot!”

”Sigh.” Xiang Xue sighed. This duckling was the same as Li Yun; he could not survive a day without making a ruckus. She suddenly felt her heart throbbing. ”Li Yun, where are you right now?”

This idiot actually abandoned her and followed his master. She turned her head to look at the noisy crowd and did not feel the slightest bit of nervousness. She went up to pull the duck, ”That's enough, stop messing around, let's hurry up!”

”Boom!” Suddenly, the sky began to shake. First was a blaze that shot up to the sky, and then a white snowflake flurried through the air. Xiang Xue'er looked up at the falling snowflakes in astonishment. Suddenly, snow began to fall? ”

They all raised their heads to look at the snow dancing in the sky. Although it was December and snow was normal, suddenly falling snow was indeed a bit strange.

Xiang Xue'er extended her hand to catch the snowflake. Her ice-cold touch was indeed not wrong. She raised her head to gaze into the distance. The blue sky quickly walked to her side. ”It seems like this snowflake is man-made!”

”En!” Xiang Xue'er turned her head to look at the two of them before walking forward with a tacit understanding. ”It seems like it's a fight between two experts!”

Ling Zhu, the fat ancestor, Gu Nala and the ducks followed them. The closer they got to the snow, the heavier the snow became, until they were almost unable to see the road in front of them.

Xiang Xue'er vaguely sensed the aura of the fire rat and immediately stopped. She turned around and said to the people behind her, ”It's too dangerous up ahead. I'll go with Qingtian to take a look. Lord Fatty, these people will guard the divine artifact well. Wait for us here!”

”Alright! ”Don't worry!” The fat ancestor patted his chest with confidence and immediately looked at Xiang Xue'er with a grave expression. ”You guys have to be careful. If I'm not wrong, the Fire Rat is right in front of us.”

It seemed like the fat ancestor had also felt it. But if one of them was a Fire Rat, then who was his opponent? Xiang Xue'er and Qingtian turned around and walked into the boundless blizzard. Suddenly, the ground violently shook as an ice pillar several meters in diameter rose from the ground into the sky.

Xiang Xue'er raised her head to look at the gigantic ice pillar. Just who had such abilities to be able to manipulate the ice element? Just when she was astonished, crackling sounds could be heard from the center of the ice pillar.

A red flame appeared from within the ice pillar. With a boom, it completely shattered the ice pillar. In an instant, the shattered ice scattered in all directions.

”Be careful!” The blue sky immediately pulled Xiang Xue'er into his embrace. She turned around and hid behind the trunk of a large pine tree. When the explosion was over, she quickly stuck her head out of his embrace.

On the ground, the ice pillars were as sharp as knives, riddling the ground with thousands of holes. The pine trees behind him looked like a hedgehog from head to toe.

The blizzard began to fade away, and the scenery in front of them became clear. The two of them quickly moved forward, stunned by what they saw.
