Chapter 1818: 893 Super Group Favorite (First Update)

In November, the border pass experienced three consecutive days of heavy snow.

The doors of the villagers were frozen shut, and the streets were iced over, making travel impossible. The soldiers of Black Wind Camp were dispatched to clear the snow and ice.

"Qingqing and Ahen were lucky, they left just before the snow, or they might have been stuck in the town for an extra day."

Pu City was also caught in a snowstorm.

Shangguan Yun stood outside the barracks, gazing towards the direction of the Official Road, murmuring to herself.

Huanhuan draped a thick cloak over her shoulders, saying, "It’s still dark, Your Highness. Why don’t you go back and get some sleep?"

Shangguan Yun adjusted her cloak and shook her head, saying, "No, I can’t sleep."

Huanhuan tied the sash for her and reassured her, "The two young princes have heaven’s blessing; they will surely be fine."

Shangguan Yun nodded, "I hope so."

Huanhuan, being a close confidante, was well aware of the background and story of the few individuals. She sighed and said, "The Marquis... has been gone for nearly twenty days. I wonder if he got the antidote for the young prince."

Half a month ago, Marquis Xuanping and Chang Jing traveled northward via Tianshan Pass, reaching the northern border of Dayan. Beyond the Valley with the iron fence ahead was no longer the land of Dayan.

"Let’s leave the horses here," Chang Jing said. "Beyond the mountain at the end of the Valley is the ice field. Ordinary warhorses can’t walk on ice, and there’s no food for them. Of course, if we use them as food, then they can be brought along."

Marquis Xuanping glanced at the well-fed and strong Black Wind Rider, thinking if he slaughtered the Black Wind Rider to eat, his daughter-in-law would slaughter him when he returned.

The three handed the horses over to the soldiers of the border pass. Led by Chang Jing, they crossed the Valley, climbed the mountain, and arrived at the endless ice field.

Ye Qing, who grew up in Shengdu, had never seen such a vast ice field and for a moment felt as small as a grain of sand.

It was also Marquis Xuanping’s first time in the extremely northern ice field. He glanced sideways at Chang Jing beside him and asked, "You mean we have to walk over there ourselves?"

"Of course not," Chang Jing said coolly.

Marquis Xuanping looked at someone amusedly, "You’re still putting on a show in front of me."

Chang Jing said nothing and turned away.

Ye Qing asked, "Is he mad?"

"No," Marquis Xuanping said calmly.

No one knew where Chang Jing went, but he returned after about half an hour, and he wasn’t alone. He was sitting in a vehicle with something very odd...

Ye Qing frowned, "Uh, what is this? And the ones pulling it seem to be... wolves?"

Chang Jing stopped the vehicle, jumped down, and said to the two, "They are direwolves, specially used to pull snow cars."

Ye Qing was surprised, "It’s my first time seeing a car without wheels."

If Gu Jiao were here, she would recognize the similarities between this snow car and the sleds of her previous life; they’re not exactly alike, but both have waxed bottoms, making them smooth for gliding on snowfields and ice.

Chang Jing said, "These are snow cars hidden by our Dark Night Island nearby."

Rumor has it that Dark Night Island has no interaction with the six nations, but that’s only politically true. Actually, the people on the island also need to leave the island to procure supplies and handle tasks ordered by the island lord.

The three boarded the snow car pulled by twenty direwolves, Chang Jing stood at the front, Marquis Xuanping sat in the middle, and Ye Qing sat at the back.

Chang Jing pulled tight the reins, "Hold on, we’re about to set off."

Ye Qing calmly responded, "Oh."

The next second, he was blasted by the roaring cold wind, making a sad frog meme face!

The snow car sped across the horizon, leaving one’s soul frozen in place.

Even Marquis Xuanping felt this thing was too exhilarating.

"Damn!"

Being carried away by Long Yi would be more thrilling.

Chang Jing, having played with this since he was a child, was unfazed. He commanded the snow car, perfectly synced with the direwolves’ speed.

He did not forget to remind the two, "Close your eyes; staring at the snow too long can cause snow blindness."

Ye Qing was almost done in.

Is it a snow car or a flying car?

I fear I won’t survive the return...

To cross the ice field before the snowstorm hit, Chang Jing hardly rested, though the direwolves needed breaks. When they gathered strength, Chang Jing and Ye Qing would hunt nearby.

At night, they stayed in a temporary tent.

The temperature on the ice field was cold, but fortunately, they were martial artists with extraordinary physiques, enabling them to withstand it.

These days lasted for a full seven days.

On the seventh day as night fell, they saw an island towering over the pale blue ice.

"It’s frozen, right on time," Chang Jing said to Marquis Xuanping and Ye Qing, "otherwise, we’d have to swim over."

Ye Qing’s mouth twitched, "No boat?"

Chang Jing said, "To prevent people on the island from traveling during the dead of winter, ships in the vicinity have been withdrawn since October."
