The ice broke down, and the old man within shook awake. The moment that he opened his eyes, they fell upon Liu Feng.
"What is this? A sick joke? Or is the sect leader finally coming to his senses and handing him over?" the second elder said with a deep voice that cracked with every syllable.
It was probably a side effect of his vacation in the cold prison.
"Not a joke. Apparently, this boy does not require protection anymore, and he doesn't need to fear you anymore. I don't know, but whatever the sect leader says. He was the one who wanted to protect him anyway, and if it is his decision to let this boy go up, then I cant do anything about it." the third elder shrugged.
"Good. Your head is mine, boy." the second elder revealed a wicked grin as he pounced on Liu Feng immediately.
But Liu Feng did not even flinch. He just frowned and raised his hand on the side, a completely different direction from the front that the second elder was charging from.
But there was a clang.
The second elder looked shocked at the unmoved Liu Feng.
Indeed, the attack came from the right and hit the arm that Liu Feng put up. But it was not so simple. There was a giant black circle to the right, and the second elder's hand was coming out of it.
"You are adept in the Dao of space. Such an esoteric dao. You must be a genius. Truly a shame that such a genius is wasted on someone who insists on keeping his mind in the past." Liu Man shook his head.
"Who are you? There is no way that you are the child of that man! There is no way that he could get so strong in such little time. You must be someone else, disguised as him to make a funny joke. Reveal yourself!" the second elder shrieked, but Liu Feng just smiled and shook his head.
"We are done here, are we not? Can we do what I came here to do now?" he asked the third elder.
"Just a moment." the third elder said and looked at the second elder.
"Lu Gengzin. The war is coming. Now is not the time for you to care about all of this useless stuff. Whether you like it or not, you know which side the Sky Heavens sect is in this war. Go man your station. The sect needs you right now. These are the words of the sect leader, as well as the ancestors and the grand elders." the third elder said and he started walking deeper into this valley.
The second elder, Lu Gengzin, stood there, dazed. Liu Feng and Liu Man just left him alone and ran after the third elder.
Lu Gengzin was not strong enough to harm them even if he sneak attacked them. They had no reason to go after him.
They went deeper into this frozen prison, where the cold kept increasing. Liu Feng frowned at the number of people behind these walls.
"Just who are these people? Why are there so many of them?" Liu Feng asked.
"These are people that the elders and core sect disciples have captured. Not everyone can kill a Xiantian expert. Instead, they defeat him, and subdue him with a formation so that they can take that person to the frozen prison and bind him.
Forcefully trying to kill a Xianrtian expert or higher will cause him or her to detonate himself after all." the third elder said as he stopped in front of what looked like a cave.
Liu Feng was reminded once again of the time when the bandit king tried to detonate himself. Back then, when he fought in the mysterious kingdom, Cao Huan did not take Liu Feng seriously, and his guard was down. That was the only reason that he died.
Or else, he would have been pushed back at best, and the result of that day would not have been the same.
"Bing Niao! Get out! Someone is here for you!" the third elder shouted.
There was no response.
"Why are we doing this? I just need a mount. This is taking more time than the time that the mount will save. We had to come all the way here, and now I don't even see the mount coming out." Liu Feng complained.
"Do you think that the sect has an unlimited number of mounts? Not everyone can get one, and we cannot spare one for you. You are going to the capital city, while many of our disciples are trying to take care of bandits, and other forces that disrupt the peaceful lives of many." the third elder shook his head and shouted again.
"Bing Niao! If you don't come out, then you will not get any ice crystals anymore."
"What are you doing here, old man. Go away. I don't want to work today. I am sleeping." a lazy voice came from inside.
"Get out here!" the expression on the third elder's face changed, and a sudden pressure caused a few icicles on the cave to fall down.
Thud!
A loud voice came from deep inside the cave.
Liu Feng unfulred his divine sense, and he could see the beast that was coming out.
With a blue tint on its whole body, this was a bird, but no ordinary one. It had frost for feathers and looked like it was made out of ice and snow.
"An Ice Bird? Interesting. It has been a while since I saw an Ice Bird. They are a rare species." Liu Man nodded.
"You know about the ice bird? Wait, you have seen them before? Bing Niao is the only one of its kind that I have seen, and I went to the Frozen Peaks to search for more!" the third elder looked shocked.
