In a certain part of the snowy plains, two groups of people were confronting each other.
One group had nearly twenty people wearing Snow Mink Guard uniforms and military uniforms from Black Snow Country.
The other group of seven or eight people wore dark blue dragon robes. The leader was quite young, tall, and imposing. It was none other than the Young Master of the Dragon Sect, Qin Lianyun!
After a year of growth, under the guidance of his King-Level father who mastered the power to transcend, Qin Lianyun had made significant progress. He could be considered a small expert now.
At this moment, Qin Lianyun held an ice crystal decorated with golden toad patterns in his hand.
This was a rare Fourth Level Ice Element material—the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal.
Qin Lianyun spoke in a deep voice. “Our Dragon Sect and your Black Snow Country are neighbors. There’s no need to fight over a Cicada Breath Ice Crystal, is there?”
The leader on the Black Snow Country’s side was a Snow Mink Guard Central Guard with black long hair named Yao Bing.
Yao Bing sneered. “Treasure hunting in the wild relies on one’s own abilities. Whoever has the bigger fist gets the treasure. It’s only because you’re from the Dragon Sect that we’re having this conversation. If it were someone else, we wouldn’t waste words.
Leave this Cicada Breath Ice Crystal behind, or else… don’t blame us for being rude.”
“You…!” Qin Lianyun angrily prepared to fight.
With his current strength, he did not fear these people from Black Snow Country!
“Young Master, stop!” A middle-aged Branch Leader, Lin Tingshu, hurriedly stopped him and whispered, “This is just one squad. There are other squads nearby! If we clash head-on, we’ll suffer great losses!”
Lin Tingshu’s words were quite polite.
If they really fought with the people from Black Snow Country, even if Qin Lianyun had life-saving treasures, the others might not be so lucky.
Qin Lianyun was furious but knew the other party was right.
In the Secret Realm, the strongest made the rules!
But this large piece of Cicada Breath Ice Crystal was obtained with great difficulty after killing the Linglong Snow Toad. Its Grade was high, and it felt too humiliating to give it up just like that.
However, the people present were all loyalists of the Old Dragon Gate, naturally more important than the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal.
As for “calling my father’s name to scare you into submission”…
Qin Lianyun despised using his father’s name. Besides, this was the New Dust Realm. Would people from Black Snow Country even care?
“…Let’s go!”
After some thought, Qin Lianyun gritted his teeth, turned around, and threw the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal behind him before leaving with Lin Tingshu and the others.
Yao Bing didn’t mind. He grinned and walked forward to pick up the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal.
Suddenly a silver flash appeared. A figure suddenly appeared before the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal and picked it up first.
“Such a high-grade Cicada Breath Ice Crystal, just thrown away like this?”
Hearing the familiar voice, Qin Lianyun’s body froze. He then turned around sharply and saw a familiar figure in black robes holding the discarded Cicada Breath Ice Crystal.
“Su Yuan?!” Qin Lianyun’s eyes filled with astonishment, followed by the joy of reuniting with a friend. “Good heavens, I didn’t expect to see you here!”
“Who are you!” Seeing Su Yuan, who had suddenly appeared and taken the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal, Yao Bing was furious. He raised his fist without hesitation and struck!
“So impetuous…” Su Yuan raised his hand, grabbed Yao Bing’s fist, and then casually twisted it.
“Ah!!”
A miserable scream echoed as Yao Bing staggered back several steps, his bones broken, his flesh torn, nearly ripped off completely!
“Yao Guard!”
The other Snow Mink Guards and Black Snow Country warriors were shocked. They drew their weapons and surrounded Su Yuan.
Yao Bing looked at Su Yuan with fear and anger but didn’t dare to move forward.
“Damn it! Who are you? We are the Snow Mink Guards of Black Snow Country!”
Su Yuan ignored him and handed the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal back to Qin Lianyun.
“Keep your belongings safe. Next time, I might not be there to pick them up for you.”
Looking at Su Yuan in front of him, Qin Lianyun felt an inexplicable surge of confidence and laughed heartily as he took the Cicada Breath Ice Crystal.
“Thanks, good brother!”
Lin Tingshu and other Dragon Sect members looked at the composed young man with silver eyes, astonished. With just a move, he had severely wounded the Snow Mink Guard Central Guard?
“Young Master Qin, who is this…?” a Dragon Sect man asked.
“My friend, Su Yuan,” Qin Lianyun proudly told everyone. “He is a master!”
Just then, Yao Bing’s eyes darkened. He signaled, and two more young Snow Mink Guards rushed forward, seemingly intending to attack Su Yuan.
Su Yuan raised his left hand slightly. The Void Splitting Monument Hand appeared, instantly sending the two rushing men flying!
Blood mist scattered instantly. The two landed in the distance, covered in blood, their breath weakening to the extreme.
“Yang Ke, Jiang Hao?!”
“Quick! Treat them now!”
The people from Black Snow Country panicked immediately. Yao Bing’s face turned grim, and he dared not act rashly.
At that moment, more than twenty people quickly flew over from a distance.
The leader’s uniform had three Snow Mink marks. It was a Central Guard!
“Qu Dawei is here!” The Black Snow Country people supporting Yao Bing rejoiced.
Yao Bing turned to look and was delighted. Holding his arm, he sneered at Su Yuan. “You’re dead for opposing us Snow Mink Guards!”
Su Yuan chuckled softly, his silver eyes flashing. He had known all along that more were coming…
