Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: The Allure of Flas
Ye You was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise and difficulty flashing across his expression. He hadn’t expected the Snow Demon Leader to actually know about the Demon Sacred Realm, and the Phoenix Scepter and Wings of Rainbow made things difficult for him.
After a mont’s hesitation, Ye You could only tell the truth: "Sorry, trespassing into a forbidden area is a life-and-death matter. I cannot let my ancestral treasures be lost with , so before coming here, I entrusted both treasures to the person temporarily managing the Demon Sacred Realm in my stead. Currently, the Phoenix Scepter and Wings of Rainbow are not with ."
Unable to produce the tokens to prove his identity, the Snow Demon Leader’s face clearly showed a suspicious expression and said in a deep voice: "You cannot prove your identity. Why should we believe you?"
Ye You straightened his chest and said loudly, "I told you, I’m here to help you. Just see if my thod works or not. If it doesn’t, it won’t be too late to chase
away then."
So of the clansn nearby advised, "Leader, he makes a reasonable point. Let him give it a try!"
Others also agreed. It wouldn’t cost them anything to try. If it worked, great; if not, they could still teach that deceitful guy a lesson later.
In the end, the Snow Demon Leader agreed with the clansn’s suggestion, allowing Ye You to enter the Snow Demon Valley.
When Ye You stepped forward, clansn stopped the Nine-Colored Deer and Snow-Scaled White Horse behind him, shouting to the Snow Demon Leader, "Leader, these two cannot enter. They’re the ones who offended the Ice Snow Fairy and caused everyone to suffer."
The Snow Demon Leader was a bit troubled. The Nine-Colored Deer and Snow-Scaled White Horse had indeed brought trouble to the Snow Demon Tribe and should be punished, but since they ca with Ye You, who claid to be the Sage Ruler, it seed inappropriate to punish them in front of him.
Ye You pondered for a mont and said to the Snow Demon Leader, "Leader, I think there’s no need to dwell on old grievances. We should look forward, don’t you agree?"
The Snow Demon Leader’s expression relaxed, and he replied loudly, "I think so too, it’s ti to look forward."
With that, he ordered the clansn to step back, allowing the Nine-Colored Deer and Snow-Scaled White Horse to enter the Snow Demon Valley with Ye You.
In earlier tis, when temperatures weren’t so low, blizzards were rare in the Snow Demon Valley, and the Snow Demon Tribe lived happily there. Although there were disputes and discontent, overall life was smooth and prosperous.
Later, the Ice Snow Fairy beca furious, the climate worsened, and the peace and joy of the Snow Demon Tribe ended. Blizzards continued in the Snow Demon Valley, and the extre cold limited their developnt and even affected their ability to reproduce.
If this situation could be resolved, then no one would mind the issue of the Nine-Colored Deer and Snow-Scaled White Horse anymore.
Currently, the Snow Demon Tribe’s people live in caves, which help them avoid the blizzards outside. The nearby high mountains, abundant with caves, provide them with shelter.
However, they can only live near the cave entrances because the deep parts of the caves are dark, and the Snow Demon Tribe people don’t see well, so they fear darkness.
The Snow Demon Leader led Ye You to his own cave, which was quite spacious. Upon entering, there was a large hall, very spacious and bright, but the several narrow caves leading deeper were shrouded in darkness.
Ye You took out several thick tree trunks from his Portable Space, which he had cut from a forest where he’d encountered two Snowcap Skunks fighting. The purpose was to build tent for resting in the Extre North Ice Field.
At the ti, it was just an impulsive move; Ye You hadn’t expected these tree trunks would be of such great use now.
He cut the tree trunks into small sections, then spread his palm, gathering the Fire Attribute Magic Power, and with a flick of his finger, a purple spark shot onto the trunk. The trunk caught fire, forming a torch burning with a purple fla.
Ye You took the torch into one of the dark small caves, securing it in place. The Ziwei Heaven Fire emitted gentle light, illuminating the small cave.
"Is this... fire?" the Snow Demon Leader asked with an excited expression.
Ye You nodded and replied, "Yes, Leader, have you seen fire before?"
The Snow Demon Leader shook his head and said, "No, there’s no existence of Fire Magic in the Extre North Ice Field. I’ve only read about it in ancient books long ago, saying that fire can bring light and warmth."
His eyes focused unwaveringly on the torch, revealing a look of amazed fascination, as if he had seen a peerless treasure.
It was no wonder he was so excited. Previously, upon entering these small caves, he felt like he had beco blind, unable to see anything. Now that the flas lit up the darkness, he no longer needed to worry or be anxious.
Ye You picked up another section of trunk and turned to look at Qin Sisi, giving her an encouraging look.
Qin Sisi understood, raised her paw, and perford the Fire Ignition Skill. Even with limited magic power, this small skill posed no problem.
Thus, the second torch was made, and unlike the first, its fla was golden yellow, emitting brighter light and more warm.
The Snow Demon Leader’s eyes shone with joy, and he earnestly requested, "Could you please make more torches for my people?"
Ye You nodded and replied, "Of course, but I only have so much wood, enough to make several dozen torches at best."
The Snow Demon Leader quickly said, "That’s no problem. There are still trees in the Extre North Ice Field. Near the ice lake, many cold-resistant Fir Trees grow. I’ll have soone..."
At this point, the Snow Demon Leader suddenly stopped, a look of sadness and helplessness on his face, and let out a heavy sigh.
Ye You looked at him curiously and asked, "Leader, is there any problem?"
In a low voice, the Snow Demon Leader said, "The Ice Snow Fairy has ordered that no mber of the Snow Demon Tribe may leave the Snow Demon Valley. Otherwise, she will co and massacre us."
Ye You and Qin Sisi exchanged a glance, and Qin Sisi nodded slightly to him. Ye You then said to the Snow Demon Leader, "If that’s the case, then I will do it for you!"
The Snow Demon Leader could hardly believe his ears and asked in amazent, "Are you really willing to help us? The ice lake is quite a distance from here."
Ye You smiled slightly. No distance could compare to when he and Qin Sisi traversed The Four Forbidden Zones, could it?
"Leader, don’t worry. I stand by my word. However, I don’t know the way to the ice lake, so I’d need your help with a map." Ye You said with determination.
"No problem." The Snow Demon Leader readily agreed, imdiately finding a piece of paper and drawing a rather detailed map for Ye You, marking especially the locations of the Snow Demon Valley and the ice lake.
He also specifically marked the location of the Ice Snow Palace, sternly warning Ye You to never approach it, because the Ice Snow Fairy was eccentric and unpredictable, and offending her could have unimaginable consequences.
