Chapter 399: Stubborn
At the foot of the snow mountain, Mo Bing looked annoyed because she still couldn’t find Tang Xiao and the others even though she had searched several areas for quite a long time.
Mo Bing contacted Hu Yizhen again, but her subordinate said there was no sign of them at the peak of the snow mountain.
"Could it be that they gave up looking for the Frost Ice Lily? However, she previously said they were looking for the flower to complete their mission, and they shouldn’t know about my presence here, so they couldn’t have aborted their mission without reason."
Mo Bing suddenly had a bad feeling, and she flew at high speed to the snow mountain. Unfortunately, she couldn’t fly toward the peak, so she used more of her strength to run there as quickly as possible.
"I hope my hunch is wrong! If I fail to get the flower, I can’t cure my brother, and he will die."

*Boom... Boom...*
*Slash... Slash...*
Several sword qi flew within the forest, slashing and splitting several wild beasts at the same time. The two young men worked together to attack all the beasts that attacked them, but their movements were quite different; one looked gentle in every attack, and the other looked so fierce and sharp.
In a nearby area, numerous ice flowers attack and freeze the other beasts. Among the ice flowers, a woman in a light blue dress danced gracefully, and they moved in sync with her agile movements.
In yet another area, several flame birds burned and scorched the wild beasts that tried to attack the young woman in the red dress. Her body was enveloped in a fiery red aura, which contrasted sharply with the woman in the light blue dress.
Within minutes, dozens of beasts had fallen lifeless from the attacks of the four people, and they hurriedly searched for the beast cores of their corpses. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find many beast cores, even though they had killed so many beasts since their move.
"This area is filled with beasts, but their strength is only equivalent to cultivators at the King and Emperor Levels." Chen Hongde cleaned the beast blood from his sword and sheathed it.
"In the past, I always trained in the forest, and I killed so many beasts, but I only obtained a few beast cores." Tang Xiao’s clone selected several beasts from the pile of their corpses, and he sent them into the Primordial Divine Ark so Xiao Ai could process them. "Are you two alright, Qingge and Senior Sister Su?"
"Hehe! I’m fine, Junior Brother Tang!" Su Xiulan replied with a happy laugh. "I haven’t hunted beasts in a long time, and these stupid beasts deliberately chased after us, so I’m thoroughly satisfied today. How about you, Sister Qingge?"
Mu Qingge wiped the sweat from his head. "In the past, I rarely hunted beasts, and my family usually bought them at the market, so this experience was really exciting."
"Oh? Is your clan so rich in your home realm?" Su Xiulan asked in surprise.
"Not really." Mu Qingge shook her head slightly. "The town where my clan lives is quite far from the forests, so we mostly buy beast meat at the market. In the past, I often took my daughter to the nearby forest, but I didn’t dare take her too deep because her cultivation was still low at the time."
"Oh." Su Xiulan nodded in understanding. "Unlike your clan, my clan’s location is surrounded by forests, and there are many beasts of various levels there. That’s why the people of my clan hunt in the forest every day, so we rarely buy beast meat at the market. Hongde’s Chen Clan is different from my Su Clan, and his clan is much closer to lakes and seas, so his clan members focus more on sea beasts."
Tang Xiao’s clone and Mu Qingge looked at Chen Hongde, who was rubbing his nose. "If you two are not busy, you should come to my wedding with Xiulan, and you guys can see for yourselves the areas of my clan residence. You two will definitely like it, especially the sea."
"What do you think if we attend their wedding, husband?" Mu Qingge asked with a hopeful look.
Tang Xiao’s clone smiled at his wife’s expression. "If you really want to attend their wedding, we’ll go to the Chen Clan on the wedding day and spend a few days there."
"Can your real body complete all the missions before that day?"
"I think all the missions will be completed before that day," Tang Xiao’s clone thought. "Currently, my real body’s group is still on the snow mountain, and they have to wait a day for the Frost Ice Lily to fully bloom. After we get that flower, we’ll head north for the next mission. If all the missions are not completed by that day, I will take them to the Chen Clan, and we will continue the rest after the wedding."
"That’s great!" Su Xiulan hugged Mu Qingge’s arm. "Sister Qingge, you should stay a few days at the Chen Clan, and I will take you guys for a walk later."
"Yes." Mu Qingge nodded with a smile. "Shall we move now? We don’t know Shangguan Qingyue’s situation out there, so I’m afraid something bad will happen to her later, and the Shangguan Clan will blame us for being on the same team."
"Honestly, I don’t care about that stupid woman because she has bad intentions towards you, Qingge." Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan smiled bitterly upon hearing that from Tang Xiao’s clone, but they couldn’t blame him because Shangguan Qingyue’s character was truly unlikeable. They didn’t like her either, but she was a member of the Shangguan Clan, so they couldn’t let anything bad happen to her. "Let’s go! We’ll look for that stupid woman now, but you three must be careful because I still can’t detect the areas around us."
Mu Qingge ran over slowly and hugged Tang Xiao’s clone’s arm. "Husband, I know you don’t like Shangguan Qingyue, but—"
"It’s okay, I understand the situation." Tang Xiao’s clone patted Mu Qingge’s hand. "After we return to the sect, I’ll go see Sect Master Huangfu, and I’ll talk to her about that woman."
"Yeah." Mo Qingge nodded.

Situ Lingxi frowned as her two subordinates returned to her location. "How’s the result? Did you two manage to find them?"
"We couldn’t find them, young miss."
"Young miss, there are too many formations in this forest, and some of them are teleportation formations. I suspect that they may have entered one of them, and it sent them to another area, so we couldn’t find them."
Situ Lingxi frowned deeper and looked at her fiancé, but Sun Weitian looked indifferent and unconcerned. ’I’m sure I didn’t see wrong yesterday, and he wants that light blue-haired woman. Tch! No matter what, I must find her, and I will kill her with my own hands.’ "Did you two find the nearest teleportation?"
"Hmm?" Sun Weitian frowned, but he didn’t say anything because that would only make Situ Lingxi even angrier. ’Tch! This woman’s jealousy is often unreasonable! One day, I will die because of her jealousy!’
The two men exchanged glances for a moment. "Young miss, are you thinking of using the teleportation formation?"
"Young miss, you should reconsider that. The teleportation formation will send us to a random location, and we might be separated from each other."
"Are you two afraid of death?" Both men broke out in a cold sweat when they heard Situ Lingxi’s icy voice. "Forget it! I wouldn’t be so crazy as to use a random teleportation formation! Let’s move now! We have to reach where the item is before the other cultivators!"
The two men breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their foreheads. "Young Master Sun, you—"
"Shut up!" The two men immediately shut their mouths and followed behind Sun Weitian. "Where is the nearest teleportation formation?"
"This—"
"Tell me!"
Both men swallowed their saliva. "The nearest teleportation formation is west of our area, Young Master Sun."
"Hmm?" Sun Weitian looked towards the west, thought for a moment, and ran in that direction.
Sun Lingxi, who was walking in front of them, immediately stopped and looked at Sun Weitian. Without thinking twice, she chased her fiancé straight away, forcing her two subordinates to follow them.
"Weitian! Stop right now!"
Sun Weitian ignored Situ Lingxi and continued running west. He scanned the surrounding area with his senses, and he immediately jumped as soon as he found the location of the teleportation formation.
Sun Lingxi was completely enraged as soon as Sun Weitian disappeared from her sight, and she immediately jumped into the teleportation formation without a second thought, shocking her two subordinates.
"Damn it! Young miss is really careless!"
"I don’t care if Young Master Sun dies, but we can’t let our young miss suffer any harm, so we have to catch up with her."
"Let’s go! I hope we will be sent to our young miss’s location."

Ming Ren, who was walking in front of Shao Yuyan and Shangguan Qingyue, immediately stopped when he saw the light coming from ahead. "Be careful! That’s a teleportation formation, and someone will be coming out of it soon."
Shao Yuyan and Shangguan Qingyue frowned as they looked towards the teleportation formation. Soon, Sun Weitian appeared in front of them.
Shangguan Qingyue looked at Shao Yuyan as soon as she felt her body tremble, and she could immediately guess that Sun Weitian was the cause. "Has that scum ever done anything to you before, Yuyan?"
"Yes," Shao Yuyan answered with a trembling voice. "Sister Qingyue, we have to escape from that man."
Ming Ren instinctively drew his sword and looked at Sun Weitian with great vigilance. "You two should leave now, and I will stop him to buy time."
