Even though the group was conducting a thorough search, it could still be dangerous, as many terrifying demon creatures were hiding close to the rifts in the ice, waiting viciously for the humans who were unaware of their existence to get closer.
The creatures that lived in the Desolate Ice Field had certain abilities to disguise themselves. The people struggled to perceive them on the mirror-like ice. They had no idea when they entered the creatures’ attack range!
“She might be hiding behind that hill. It’s where the last movent I heard ca from,” Nanyu whispered to Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue.
“Alright, lead us to her. We must find her before the Heresy Judgnt Court,” Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue, and Zhao Manyan followed Nanyu as they pretended to search behind the hill. The Heresy Judgnt Court was not suspicious of them, and continued to search for Qin Yu’er.
Every minute they wasted ant more ti for Qin Yu’er to recover her energy. The Judicators would not have the upper hand if she was able to cast her magic at will while having plenty of energy.
“You guys, search that area,” Yassen told a few Hunter Masters from his team.
“It’s dangerous over there. I heard a few deep growls just now!” The Hunter Masters were reluctant to go any further.
“One must put in the effort to be rewarded. Do you think we can take the Tianshan Sacred Lotus if we are pretending to be searching for her while we are strolling around the field?” Yassen reminded him.
The other teams went separate ways. Everyone knew how dangerous the rifts were. No one dared to fly in the Desolate Ice Field, as the strange winds might drag them into the rifts if they were the least bit careless!

Mo Fan turned to watch where the others were going. He noticed Xing Hui was following them with a bunch of people.
“Do they know we are up to sothing?” Zhao Manyan said.
“I don’t think so. I bet they are just trying to annoy us. We have to send them away, or we won’t be able to et Qin Yu’er,” Mo Fan said.
“Leave it to !” Zhao Manyan exclaid.
Zhao Manyan approached Xing Hui. He was heading up an ice dune when he suddenly pointed at a deep rift and said, “I think I see her, she’s down there!”
His shout imdiately attracted everyone’s attention. They quickly gathered around while Zhao Manyan headed to the lower ground, like he was trying to take a head start.
Even though Zhao Manyan’s exaggerating act was awkward to look at, so people actually believed him, including Xing Hui and the others who were following Mo Fan. They imdiately started after him.
The person who found the Ice Witch first would be rewarded with the biggest petal of the Tianshan Sacred Lotus. Wasn’t that what they were risking their lives for?

Mo Fan’s group successfully reached the back of the mountain. The hill’s waist had many ravines that were excellent hiding spots. Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue thought she would be hiding sowhere on the hill, but Nanyu went straight to the back of the hill.
“Weird...” Nanyu said.
“She’s not here?” Mu Ningxue asked worriedly.
“She is, but the movent I heard is coming from over there.” Nanyu pointed down a ravine.
Mo Fan followed her finger and saw Nanyu pointing at a huge canyon. It was one of the Nine Rifts. People who ca within five hundred ters of it could already feel the force trying to drag them into it, let alone if they fell into it!
“She’s around there?” Mo Fan asked in alarm.
“No, she’s inside it,” Nanyu declared.
Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue exchanged glances. They imdiately ran to the huge canyon when they realized sothing.
The rift was over seven kiloters long and around four hundred ters wide, easily comparable to the quickmud of the Swamp of Death. It was unlikely anyone would survive after stepping into it.
Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue arrived at the edge of the rift. The overwhelming force kept dragging them towards the rift. Mo Fan had to use the Space Elent to resist it.
They looked down and saw a cliff down the wall, around a hundred ters down. A woman in a light purple robe was standing on the cliff. Her silver hair stood out clearly.
“She’s down there!” Mu Ningxue exclaid.
“Is she trapped? How did she fall into a rift, not to ntion such a big one? How are we supposed to save her?” Mo Fan had to ask.
“Take it easy, you two,” Nanyu said.
Qin Yu’er who was standing on the cliff seed to notice them too. She looked up in their direction.
“I’m going down,” Mu Ningxue said.
“I’ll modify the laws with the Chaos Elent. You should hurry and save her. I can’t hold on for too long,” Mo Fan told Mu Ningxue.
“Got it!”
The Chaos Elent could manipulate gravity. It would work on the ice rift too, but its power was overwhelming due to its size. Mo Fan could only manipulate the force of a small area.
Mu Ningxue jumped into the rift. It was rare to see her so worried about soone, perhaps because Qin Yu’er’s fate was too similar to hers. They even had the sa silver hair. Only they understood one another’s loneliness.
“Sister Qin!” Mu Ningxue felt oddly warm when she saw Qin Yu’er.
“Ningxue, why are you here?” Qin Yu’er was surprised. They were at the Scar of Tianshan Mountain, an extrely dangerous place, even for Mu Ningxue!
“I ca here to train myself. You are in a pretty bad spot,” Mu Ningxue said.
“I know,” Qin Yu’er sounded calm. She did not panic even when the Heresy Judgnt Court was after her.
“Why did you co back here?” Mu Ningxue did not understand.
She had managed to get out from the Scar of Tianshan Mountain before. Why didn’t she stay in the city? Did she co here to hide from the Heresy Judgnt Court?
Qin Yu’er shook her head. Instead of looking across the world for the man she wanted to et, it was better to co back here and wait.
She was confident that she had seen a familiar face when the ice lted. Why did he turn and leave?
