Chapter 1409: Chapter 1409: Snow Mountain Slide
"Sisi, this is for you." Ye You lowered his head and said to Qin Sisi who was in his arms.
Qin Sisi hadn’t been hiding all along; during Ye You’s fierce battle with the Hot Spring Golden Ape, she had secretly peeked out, observing this life-and-death struggle.
The Hot Spring Golden Ape was domineering and treacherous, so Ye You’s ruthless strikes were understandable.
She received the dazzling Gold Attribute Magic Crystal Stone from Ye You’s hand and smiled, saying, "Thank you."
Ye You hesitated for a mont and asked, a bit nervously, "Sisi, you’re not mad at , are you?"
Qin Sisi raised her eyes and blinked, softly asking, "You’re giving
a gift, why would I be mad at you?"
Ye You let go of his worry, smiling self-deprecatingly, "I’m afraid you’ll call
ruthless and heartless again."
He didn’t care what others thought, but he hoped he was perfect in Qin Sisi’s heart.
Qin Sisi said crisply, "When dealing with enemies, of course, one must be ruthless. If we were rciful to these troubleso demonic beasts, we might have already been eaten by those Snow Wolves on the mountain."
Ye You chuckled lightly and said, "I’m relieved you think that way."
"Let’s go." Qin Sisi gently said, looking back at the stripped, bare corpse of the Hot Spring Golden Ape and sighed, "It’s a pity about that beautiful golden fur."
Ye You had only taken a couple of steps when he heard what Qin Sisi said and stopped imdiately, saying, "Do you like it? Then I’ll catch one and pluck its golden fur to give to you."
As he spoke, Ye You turned and started to head deeper into the hot spring lake.
Qin Sisi hurriedly said, "No, don’t go. The spiritual energy here is rich, and the Hot Spring Golden Ape is very strong. We’d better leave soon."
Ye You didn’t mind and said, "It’s fine, I can do it."
Qin Sisi advised, "I believe you can do it, but I don’t trust myself. A person must know their limitations. I know I can’t beat them. I don’t want to take risks. The golden fur is just sothing unnecessary; it’s not worth wasting ti and magic power here. Our goal is the Life Divine Water."
Seeing Qin Sisi’s firm attitude, and rembering the Hot Spring Golden Ape’s sneak attack on her earlier, Ye You also felt a bit uneasy, so he no longer insisted and nodded, saying, "Alright, let’s do as you say. Maybe next ti I’ll help you pluck so golden fur."
Qin Sisi was both amused and exasperated, shrinking back into Ye You’s clothes.
Ye You’s eyes were gentle as he patted Qin Sisi’s small head through the fabric, then he conjured magic wings, flapping them as he flew to the top of Yuding Snow Mountain.
The warmth from the hot springs disappeared, and they returned to the extrely cold, icy world.
But this ti they were not going up the mountain; they were going down.
Standing at the top of Yuding Snow Mountain, overlooking the path down, this side was obviously much steeper than the ascent, and many places were nearly vertical.
The blizzard was still fierce, making it unsuitable for flying.
Qin Sisi peeked her head out from Ye You’s embrace, gazing at the steep peaks with a serious expression.
Yet Ye You suddenly laughed, gently touching the back of Qin Sisi’s neck and softly asked, "Sisi, have you ever played on a slide?"
Qin Sisi nodded in response, "I played when I was a child."
Ye You asked again, "Were the slides you played on very small?"
Qin Sisi countered, "How big can a slide be?"
Ye You laughed heartily and said, "Today, we’ll play on a big one."
"What?" Qin Sisi asked in confusion, following Ye You’s gaze downward, her body instantly tensing up, "You wouldn’t want..."
Ye You didn’t reply, instead holding Qin Sisi tightly, using Gold Attribute Magic Power to shield their bodies, then with a slight grit of his teeth, he leapt off.
"Ah!" Qin Sisi exclaid, her voice quickly swallowed by the wind roaring past her ears.
Ye You held her as they tumbled through the snow, rolling from the cloud-piercing peak of Yuding Snow Mountain all the way down to its base at the ground.
It truly was a giant slide, starting from the sky and ending at the earth; there couldn’t be a bigger slide than this.
Under the influence of gravity, the two rolled faster and faster, the slope mostly covered with thick snow, with few bumps or obstacles.
Occasionally blocked by protruding rocks, Ye You would stand up, detour around them, and continue rolling and sliding down.
At first, Qin Sisi was a bit scared, but gradually her mind beca hazy and the fear vanished; she could only hear the whistling wind and feel the icy chill of the snow and the warmth of Ye You’s body.
It was too crazy, too thrilling. She thought of it this way.
But ever since eting Ye You, every event had been mad and exciting; Ye You had given her a life unlike ordinary people.
Going up the mountain took them a month and a half, but descending took them less than a day.
When they finally stopped at the flat mountain base, both were panting heavily, then they burst into laughter. Ye You flipped over, pinning Qin Sisi beneath him, kissing and nuzzling her frantically.
Once they cald down, they began to survey this fourth forbidden area—the Extre North Ice Field.
Just as its na implies, located at the northernmost part of the Demon Sacred Realm, this place was an icy wasteland, with endless blizzards raging relentlessly throughout the year. It seed unlikely that any creatures could survive here.
Ye You held Qin Sisi in his arms, continuing northward. They were only at the edge of the Extre North Ice Field; the Deity Guardians surely resided in its core.
Traveling in a blizzard was extrely difficult; they only covered a few hundred ters in an hour. Then they saw a strange sight not far away.
One after another, white figures stood in the snowstorm, lined up very evenly, with a gap of three to four ters between them, extending left and right endlessly.
"Are those guards?" Qin Sisi asked in confusion.
In the other three forbidden areas, although there were vicious and cruel demonic beasts, never had there been such organized and trained guards.
Could it be that the Deity Guardians of the Extre North Ice Field were extrely reluctant to be disturbed by outsiders?
The two cautiously approached, discovering that these white guards stood motionless, their bodies covered in snow, as if they had been standing there for a long ti.
Getting closer, they noticed sothing strange: these white guards’ physiques were sowhat different from normal humans. They were taller, slightly chubby, with round heads but no necks, their bodies appearing quite odd.
Qin Sisi watched for a while, then shouted loudly, "Hey, who are you?"
She waited for a while but received no response; those white figures remained unmoving as if they hadn’t heard her speak at all.
So Ye You stepped forward a few more paces and shouted loudly, "Hey, who are you?"
If it were because Qin Sisi was now cursed into a cat, making them unable to understand her words, then Ye You’s words should be comprehensible to them.
But the two waited for a long ti, still receiving no response.
