Running Wild In The Snow

"Yuan, you're awesome!" Luo Xiaoman did not expect Mo Yuan to be so caring. He ran with her in his arms, saving her time and effort. She could not help praising him.

Hearing her praise, Mo Yuan's gaze trembled slightly while his face flushed red.

He just wanted Luo Xiaoman to be warm and comfortable.

The top of Bai Luo Mountain was a completely different world from the foot of the mountain.

At its foot, the mountain was lush with greenery, whereas its peak was completely covered in snow. The whirling snow stretched for thousands of miles. Coupled with the cold wind, it was freezing cold at the mountain top.

Luo Xiaoman shuddered and curled up in Mo Yuan's arms like a kitten.

"Is it cold?" Mo Yuan looked at Luo Xiaoman tenderly. He was indifferent to others, but he was quite compassionate to Xiaoman.

He held Luo Xiaoman tightly in his arms, activating the vitality within his body to give her warmth.

"Bai Luo Mountain is truly extreme." Luo Xiaoman felt some warmth, but still she frowned and said dejectedly, "It was warm as spring just a while ago, but it's now as cold as winter. Even these winter clothes aren't enough to keep me warm."

She squinted her eyes to scan the surroundings.

"Yuan, go over there." Luo Xiaoman pointed to a narrow path in front of them. Although both sides were piled with snow, she caught a glimpse of it with her sharp eagle eyes.

Mo Yuan made several jumps. Before long, he came to a narrow path.

The path extended upward. Most likely, it was the way to the top of the mountain.

"Be careful."

"Okay."

Mo Yuan walked a step at a time, keeping his eyes on the surroundings.

From the moment he was at Bai Luo Mountain, he felt several pairs of eyes staring at him, much like a prey being stalked by wild beasts.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a roar sounded, and a white figure pounced out from the side.

Mo Yuan's eyes darkened as he spun around. He was about to draw his sword, but then realized that he was still carrying Luo Xiaoman. If he pulled the sword forcibly, Luo Xiaoman would definitely fall to the ground.

He frowned but managed to evade the white figure.

A cold wind rushed by. His ponytail swayed, and a few strands of his hair were blown away.

"It's a Bai Hou!" Luo Xiaoman frowned as she undoubtedly saw the white figure on the ground. "It's a level-two monster known for its sharp claws."

Mo Yuan nodded, while he glared at the Bai Hou.

"Wait." Luo Xiaoman raised his eyebrows and said solemnly, "These little beasts are gregarious creatures... Yuan, quick. Run away."

Hearing this, Mo Yuan was startled, but he rushed to the summit immediately.

The instant he made his move, countless white figures flew out. However, Mo Yuan managed to rush out of the circle of Bai Hous just in time.

If Luo Xiaoman had not recognized the creature in time, they would have been surrounded.

With Luo Xiaoman in his arms and more than a dozen Bai Hous at their heels, Mo Yuan was running wild on the icy mountain.

Luo Xiaoman looked back at the Bai Hous. Feeling worried, she knew that they could not outrun them for long.

The higher up they went in the mountain, the more potential dangers they might encounter. They had to find a way to get rid of these Bai Hous, otherwise, they would end up provoking the other big beasts.

"Howl!"

They then heard a series of howls.

Luo Xiaoman was shocked. A sense of crisis immediately gripped her heart.

Soon after, the earth began to tremble. There was an avalanche of snow on both sides of the road which blocked their way.

Mo Yuan's vigilant eyes looked around as he carried Luo Xiaoman behind him. In a soft, low voice, he said, "Master, hold on firmly."

"Okay." Luo Xiaoman nodded and firmly grasped Mo Yuan's shoulder with a glint of trust flashing in her eyes.

Mo Yuan's hand held the hilt of his sword. In the next instant, a cold light flashed as he caused an explosion which left a gap in the snow blocking the road.
