When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Under Zhu Chongjiu's god-like intimidation, the demon beast army stopped their attack. At the same time, a beast roar that resounded through the sky echoed from the depths of the vast ice and snow plains.

The demon army immediately scattered and fled. Zhu Chongjiu knew that it was the voice of Xiong Da's father.

Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself: Xue Mei, that demon beast, is really no good bird. She is much more cunning and treacherous than Shenxu Wang. If she were to take action, she could intervene in this war to some extent. However, because she is worried about that demon, she has always chosen to stand by and watch!

Only after I killed that demon did they come out to stop the army of monsters from continuing their slaughter.

In Zhu Chongjiu's view, this was not even icing on the cake!

If the demon beast army does not retreat, Zhu Chongjiu is confident that he can lead all the emperor-level experts of the kingdom and wipe out the demon beast army completely within five days without using a single soldier!

As for Zhu Chongjiu's current desire to leave a way out for the demon beast army, it is so that a hundred or a thousand years later, the Ruixue Kingdom will still need demon beasts from the vast ice and snow plains to live on!

One day after the demon army withdrew, King Lai Xun awoke and returned to the Kingdom of Ruixue to recuperate three days later!

After King Raihun awoke and learned of the battlefield situation, he immediately ordered that 10,000 troops be left in each major city to form an allied legion to bring all the fallen kingdom soldiers back to the capital for a unified burial.

Then, together they cleaned up the battlefield and collected supplies. All supplies were then sent to the capital, where, after discussion, rewards were distributed based on merit.

With King Raihun issuing his orders, the war, which had lasted for nearly a year, came to a complete end.

During this time, King Lai Xun wanted to meet Zhu Chongjiu, but Zhu Chongjiu told him that he did not have time and that he would go to the capital after some time.

After two days of searching and piecing things together, Zhu Chongjiu was now leading the remaining twelve members of the Wolf Fang Squad and the members of the Divine Void Hunting Squad, led by Wu Lintian, to bid farewell to Wei Tianxing and the thirty-six Emperor-level powerhouses!

Zhu Chongjiu looked at Wei Tianxing, who had been pieced together from various sources, and said with a sob, "Old Wei, are you really stupid? You came with me to Shenxu, such a dangerous place, and I didn't let you get hurt at all. How come you've kicked the bucket in less than a year?"

How arrogant are you? Couldn't you have waited for me to come back? You know how capable your Ninth Brother is. A small, vast ice and snowfield, and a minor demon lord, are just a matter for your Ninth Brother to handle with a flick of his finger!

Even if you were dead, I would still beat you to death if you were alive!

You know perfectly well that you still have Ninth Brother, yet you still do this. You're dying a death lighter than a feather!

At this moment, Dean Wang said from behind Zhu Chongjiu: "Alright, Ninth Brother, Lord Wei was brave and fearless. His death has set an example for all the people of Ruixue!"

Wu Lintian added, "Ninth Brother, let Lord Wei and the other Emperor-level heroes set off. King Lai Xun said he wants to build a Hero Tower in the capital to bury all the warriors who died in this battle, so that future generations can pay their respects!"

Zhu Chongjiu looked up at the void, then turned back to look at everyone. "You can set off now. Don't wait for me. When you arrive in the capital, if King Lai Xun asks me when I will arrive, tell him not to bother me. I will go find him when I want to!"

After Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, he vanished in a flash.

Five days later, Zhu Chongjiu hovered deep within the vast ice and snow plains.

That's right, he came to find Xue Mei. During the five days that the war was over, Zhu Chongjiu became angrier and angrier.

If Xue Mei had offered assistance and controlled some of the demonic beasts, how many fewer casualties could the human army have suffered? Perhaps, Lao Wei and his group wouldn't have died, and at the very least, they could have held out until I returned!

By the time they reached the human race, King Lai Xun had already dealt with most of the cowardly and hesitant Emperor-level experts, whether they were in the military or from powerful families. Zhu Chongjiu didn't need to worry about them anymore. However, he still needed to teach that selfish and cunning old fox a lesson!

But now there's a problem. Zhu Chongjiu arrived near the iceberg he visited last time two days ago, but when he came back, the iceberg was gone!

Zhu Chongjiu has been wandering around this area for two days, his brow furrowed over a detail, but he just can't find it!

Zhu Chongjiu thought irritably, "Could it be that it knew I was going to cause it trouble and ran away in advance?"

It's not impossible; foxes have always been known for their exceptional intelligence, and it's possible they guessed it.

Zhu Chongjiu was already seething with anger, and then the escape made him even more furious. After thinking it over, he suddenly slapped his thigh!

Oh dear, how could I forget about my little brother?

With that, Zhu Chongjiu released Xiao Hei from his storage ring!

When Xiao Hei came out, he pulled a long face and angrily said to Zhu Chongjiu: You still know there's someone breathing inside?

Seeing the sullen little black dog, Zhu Chongjiu quickly coaxed it, "You have no idea how dangerous these past few days have been...!"

After Zhu Chongjiu embellished the story, leaving the little black tiger completely bewildered, Zhu Chongjiu, seeing that the situation had eased, immediately brought up the old fox Xue Mei!

After another round of deception and trickery, Zhu Chongjiu produced the ice crystal flower he had previously captured at the entrance of the ice mountain! Brother Hei, I know your nose; it can smell the breath of the heavens above and the ghostly abode of the underworld below.

And sure enough, when it was most needed, it was my brother Hei who stepped in!

After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xiao Hei was in a state of euphoria, and walked up to Zhu Chongjiu with his head held high!

After seeing Xiao Hei's posture, Zhu Chongjiu raised his hand, which only reached Xiao Hei's calves, and whispered, "Brother Hei, can you smell it with your neck raised so high?"

After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xiao Hei looked down at Zhu Chongjiu and said, "Can't you fly a little higher?"

Zhu Chongjiu flew to Xiao Hei's big head, reached out and held the ice flower to Xiao Hei's nose. After sniffing it a few times, Xiao Hei looked up and sniffed the surrounding air!

Looking at Xiao Hei, who was already engrossed in his work, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "Kids are so easy to fool!"

A day later, Zhu Chongjiu rode Xiao Hei and looked at the smooth, mirror-like thousand-foot ice mountain a thousand meters away. He said angrily, "Damn it, I finally found you! You really know how to run! You actually ran to the place where the gods were suppressed!"

Zhu Chongjiu arrived at a hundred meters from the entrance of the iceberg and shouted loudly, "Old fox, you really made your Ninth Brother look for you!"

Come out here right now so I can beat you up and vent my anger, or don't blame me for being impolite!

Shortly after Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, Xiong Da's father emerged from the entrance of the ice mountain and said in an unfriendly tone: "Human brat, you are not allowed to disrespect Lady Xue Mei...!"

Before Xiong Da's father could finish speaking, Zhu Chongjiu waved his hand at him, and a hundred-foot-long hand made of ice and snow slapped Xiong Da's father, sending him flying a thousand meters away. He crashed onto the ice with a loud thud and remained motionless.

Zhu Chongjiu withdrew the hand that had slapped Xiong Da's father away, clapped his hands, and muttered, "If it weren't for the fact that I still have some friendship with your son, you would be a headless giant bear right now!"

Then, Zhu Chongjiu said to the iceberg, "I'll count to three. If you don't come out by then, I'll tear down your lair. Do you want to try and see if I have the ability to demolish your iceberg castle?"

Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xue Mei slowly emerged from the iceberg and walked towards Zhu Chongjiu with a smile, saying, "Young friend, I wonder what I have done to offend you so much?"

Zhu Chongjiu asked with a questioning expression, "Since your master knew you might be no match for the demons, yet still sent you here, if I'm not mistaken, this iceberg of yours must be a magic weapon to suppress the demons or the Void, right?"

What I want to know is, why didn't you do as your master instructed?

Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xue Mei's expression changed, and she asked, "How do you know that this iceberg is a magical artifact used to suppress the demon race or the Void?"

Zhu Chongjiu chuckled and said, "You think I'm a fool? But I'm not really a fool. Your iceberg is obviously man-made. How can there be an iceberg with the hardness of an Emperor-level divine weapon? This is clearly man-made."

At first I was just suspicious, but after I discovered that icebergs can move, I was certain!

Alright, I've said my piece. Just answer my question cleanly. Anyone who knows me knows my temper!

Xue Mei looked at Zhu Chongjiu, whose face was growing colder and colder, and after thinking for a while, she said: "When we came here, my master said that there would be a great calamity in the Cangshen Realm, and that someone would come to stop and save it. So I believe that even without my help, this demon will be annihilated!"

Upon hearing Xue Mei's words, Zhu Chongjiu began to laugh loudly. After laughing for almost a minute, Zhu Chongjiu's expression suddenly turned sinister.

He opened his mouth and said, "Then let me ask you, even if I am the one who is to deal with the great calamity, what if I don't come?"

Even if I am the one who is about to face the great calamity, what if this demon is not the one who is supposed to be the catastrophe?

Are you going to stand by and watch, like this, as a million-strong human army is ultimately slaughtered in this vast expanse of icy mountains and snowfields?

Watching the demonic beast army slaughter a million soldiers before entering the inland and massacring civilians?

Xue Mei was about to explain after hearing Zhu Chongjiu say these words.

Zhu Chongjiu interrupted, "Don't tell me that if it really comes to that, you will step in to stop it, even at the cost of your life!"

Leaving aside the future, just looking at the present, the human army has suffered nearly 700,000 casualties. If you take action to control some of the demon beast armies, the human army will at least reduce its casualties by tens or even hundreds of thousands!

But you didn't do that. For your own safety and selfishness, you were waiting for some vague and uncertain person to be your destined savior.

I've figured it out. A creature like you will always treat life as worthless. Don't forget, your master is also human!

Zhu Chongjiu slowly raised his hand as he said this, and continued, "Then I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!"

Seeing that Zhu Chongjiu was about to force himself on her, Xue Mei angrily said: "Human, what are you doing? I am from the upper realm. I am here to save you humans from the lower realm. If my master finds out that you are treating me like this, he will definitely not forgive you!"

Zhu Chongjiu replied with a disdainful look; "People from the upper realm? You came to save the human race in the lower realm, and this is how you save them?"

If that's the case, then we don't need you, the one from the upper realm, and it doesn't matter to us!

“Blizzard Burial!” These four words were calmly uttered from Zhu Chongjiu’s tightly closed lips. His voice seemed to transcend time and space, carrying a sense of resoluteness and coldness.

Just as everyone was in shock, a gigantic tornado suddenly appeared, carrying a blizzard and sweeping towards Snow Fairy with overwhelming force. In an instant, Snow Fairy was engulfed and disappeared into the vast white chaos.

Gazing at the scene before him, Zhu Chongjiu remained calm and composed. However, his next words sent chills down one's spine: "Today, I will inflict upon you the agony of being slowly sliced ​​to death, so that you may personally experience the agony endured by those soldiers who fought valiantly to defend their homeland and ultimately perished on the battlefield!"

Before the words were even finished, countless snowflakes, sharp as blades, began to whirl wildly within the raging tornado. They lashed at Snow Fairy's body like dense raindrops. Each snowflake was like a sharp dagger, mercilessly slicing through Snow Fairy's flesh, splattering blood everywhere.

Faced with such a fierce attack, Xue Mei struggled desperately to resist. She used all her skills, constantly changing her form, trying to break free from the shackles of this storm of death. But no matter how hard she tried, Zhu Chongjiu's Blizzard Burial was like an inescapable cage, always keeping her tightly trapped inside.
