Headfirst Into Danger

"Hm, I must be getting close to it now."

Just as the sibling duo returned home, Ming Yue seemingly reached her destination. Landing down with Xiao Yin and Hei Yue, she took a look around before taking the map out.  Her eyes moved from one side to the other, eventually stopping at the far east of the Xue Mountains. 

"It should be here..." she thought to herself, "...the Frostflame Bear's territory."

Compared to the rest of the mountain range, the scenery was vastly different. Everything was covered in ice, from the trees to the ground, even the falling snow had become shards of ice. 

Everything seemed to be devoid of any life. 

And yet, there was a particular atmosphere that she could not ignore.

It was tense and heavy, the cultivator felt stares on her body. Looking up, there were small shadows circling around the trio's location like vultures. 

"Hm, interesting."
