“Take refuge,” Xia Ji replied casually.
“Okay, then you can stay here in peace.”
Then, the Ice Lotus Princess started chatting again. She felt that this mysterious man was full of power. If she missed the chance to become friends with him, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Strangely, they encountered two groups of deserters along the way.
This was simply unimaginable.
The carriage stopped.
In the fortress, a few officers came to welcome them.
The Ice Lotus Princess was helped out of the carriage, and Xia Ji followed her up the high wall.
The wall was several thousand feet wide and was made of large bluestone.
The cold wind was piercing to the bones. Even if someone kept walking, the frost and snow on the wall were still compressed into sporadic ice. If they accidentally stepped on it, it was very likely that they would fall to the ground with their armor.
On this pass, the only warm color was the evenly placed braziers.
However, this warm color seemed even more powerless and pale in front of the gloominess of the world.
Surrounded by the officers, the Ice Lotus Princess walked up the stairs and stood in front of the jagged battlements on the wall.
The officer handed over a long tube to increase the visibility.
The Ice Lotus Princess took it and put it to her left eye, looking into the distance.
Immediately after, she could not help but turn pale as she cried out, ” What’s that?!!
Xia Ji followed her gaze. He could clearly see a few giant shadows that were slightly shorter than the city wall in the distant snowstorm. Some of those giant shadows were standing, while others were squatting on the ground. It was like a nightmare that made people’s hearts palpitate and feel uneasy.
The light from the brazier naturally couldn’t shine through.
But the soldiers in the fortress had already seen it.
That was why there was such a panicked atmosphere and so many deserters.
The Ice Lotus Princess put down the telescope. Although she was scared, she still maintained her composure and asked in a calm voice, “Where are the scouts?”
“Princess, the scouts … They all fled.”
The officer’s expression was serious. He gritted his teeth and said honestly, “No one dares to probe anymore. Those are monsters. They … It’s coming.”
The Ice Lotus Princess felt her blood turn cold, and the cold wind she breathed in froze her soul.
She looked around and saw that all the soldiers who were still on duty were trembling slightly. They were clearly on the verge of collapse.
The pressure was too great.
The Ice Lotus Princess suddenly regretted coming here.
If the monsters not far away were to charge, would the fortress still be able to withstand them? Would he be able to escape in time?
She felt her heart being gripped tightly, and her beautiful face was frozen in fear.
Suddenly, she couldn’t help but glance at Xia Ji.
The mysterious southerner still had a calm expression on his face. There was no panic on his face.
She suddenly felt a strange sense of security. It was as if with this man around, it would not matter even if the sky collapsed.
The Ice Lotus Princess breathed a sigh of relief and regained her composure.
Suddenly, an officer stepped forward. He stared at the Ice Lotus Princess with a burning gaze and said loudly, “I’m willing to die for the princess.”
Immediately, many people looked over. This man wanted to use his life to win the beauty’s smile.
The Ice Lotus Princess seemed to hesitate…
She recognized this officer. He was also from a noble family and had admired her for a long time. However, there were many people who admired her in the entire Luosha Kingdom. Other than her noble princess status, there was also her beautiful appearance. It was a pity that she was not interested in the weak. However, it would not be good if she rejected this officer at this moment…
At this moment, Xia Ji couldn’t help but laugh.
This kind of question that was not a problem for him actually made the group of people in front of him act out life and death separation, love and hatred.
“I’ll go take a look,” he said calmly.
The Ice Lotus Princess cried out in surprise. ” Sir. ‘
Xia Ji didn’t show off. He picked a horse and left the fortress without a weapon, heading into the darkness.
On the high wall, the foreign princess watched with her beautiful eyes glistening. She was frightened and excited. She was so frightened that what if Mr. Ji Qi died?
He was excited that if Mr. Ji Qi came back alive…Just thinking about it made her tremble with excitement.
Da da da da…
The horses galloped.
The black shadow in the distance was getting closer.
The horses slowed down.
By the time Xia Ji got off, the horse had already fallen to the ground in fear.
Xia Ji finally saw these giants clearly.
His skin was slightly blue, and his body was surrounded by snow. He held a heavy weapon like a spiked club in his hand, and a skull necklace hung around his neck.
Coincidentally, it was actually a Frost Giant..
These giants looked down at the short man who came from afar. They all made strange noises, as if they were wondering why the short man was not afraid of them.
Xia Ji completely ignored them and took a few steps forward.
These blue-skinned giants, who had been greatly strengthened in the snowy weather, were instantly enraged .
It’s fine if you’re not afraid of us, but why are you ignoring us?
I’ll definitely teach you a lesson.
What a weak dwarf.
Use your blood to wash away your offense against us.
The Frost Giant’s mind flashed with the words before it grabbed the spiked club and smashed it down.
The heavy weapon stirred up a strong wind. Before it touched the ground, the snow on the ground could no longer withstand the force. It suddenly sank into a deep pit, and the ice and snow exploded like a reverse waterfall.
Xia Ji took a deep breath. Facing such an attack, he actually felt like he was returning to an old place, and his heart was extremely relaxed.
Now, it seemed that the strength of these frost giants was roughly at the level of the tenth realm. No wonder he had struggled to fight them back then.
But now…
He raised his hands and opened his palms.
Bang!
Bang!
rlWo loud noises sounded like thunder in winter. With his arms as the center, two circles of ripples were created.
After the ripples combined, they turned into one and spread out in all directions.
The snow dust had yet to disperse, and the two Frost Giants only felt that their weapons were stuck. The two of them pulled their weapons out with all their might, but they could not pull them out no matter how hard they tried.
Xia Ji casually pushed him back.
With their own strength and Xia Ji’s strength, the two of them were sent flying. They landed on the ground far away and cried out in pain.
The voice traveled to the distant pass, and everyone looked at each other.
The Ice Lotus Princess looked worried, but…She then saw the two elite guards who had defected to the Central Plains with no expression on their faces, so she could not help but ask curiously, “Aren’t you worried about him?”
A swordsman from the Central Plains hurriedly said, “Your Highness, nothing will happen to him.”
“Why?” the Ice Lotus Princess asked curiously.
“Because he is…”
“The great beast tamer clan, the legendary Ji clan,” another person hurriedly answered.
“So the Ji family is so famous in the south?” The Ice Lotus Princess asked.
The two swordsmen from the Central Plains looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They simply could not understand why an existence like King Shenwu, who had suppressed tens of thousands of soldiers, would come to such a cold and barren land.
In such a place, they even felt that the speed at which their zhenqi circulated had slowed down. It was likely that they would not be able to break through again in the future. This was a place suitable for ” refuge and retirement “. It was a paradise for those who lived on and a hell for martial artists.
Of course, they didn’t know about Xia Ji’s other identities or the things he had done. Otherwise, they would have been speechless.
In the distance…
Xia Ji’s actions offended the Frost Giant.
These giants who could hide in the wind and snow did not seem to have a good brain, or perhaps they did not see who it was.
One by one, they raised their spiked clubs high and charged forward, surrounding the short man as if thev were hitting a mole.
The drums of heaven and earth sounded in the wind and snow.
Very quickly, it returned to silence.
After Xia Ji defeated a hundred Frost Giants, the rest began to run.
As the Frost Giants ran around frantically, Xia Ji called out, “”Tu Luo.”
His voice suppressed the wind and snow and spread out clearly.
Soon .
A giant figure that was much taller than a normal Frost Giant appeared in the wind and snow. He had a Sacred Beetle necklace around his neck and a huge mace in his hand. On his left shoulder sat a silver-haired, blue-eyed woman.
The woman was tall and imposing. Her appearance with the giant added to her mysteriousness.
She glanced at the Frost Giants who had been beaten to a pulp and smiled instead of being angry.”Did you beat them up again?”
This sentence immediately evoked the memories of all the Frost Giants.
Could it be that he was…
Ah … So it was the strongest shorty.
No wonder, no wonder.
The silver-haired man with blue eyes jumped down from the giant’s shoulder and stood in front of Xia Ji, He smiled and said, “”We meet again,”
“Are we still allies?” Xia Ji asked.
“Never,” Tu Luo said..
