It was another winter. Winter gave people a cold and heartless feeling. Sometimes, it also gave people the warmth of homesickness. This winter was destined to be extraordinary. This was especially true in the Snow City, which was covered in snow all year round. This year, the snow in the Ice Snow City was exceptionally heavy. The snow was scattered on the ground, and the snow-covered scene was everywhere. When people stepped on it, they would make a "kacha kacha" sound. With the northern wind blowing, it became even colder.
There was a little boy of four or five years old crouching by the corner of a wall covered with snow. The little boy looked especially weak at that time. His whole body was trembling violently. He covered his whole body with the only tattered clothes that could protect him from the cold. However, how could tattered clothes defend against such a cold winter? And it was in the Snow City! In addition to the north wind blowing mercilessly, the little boy's trembling became even more intense! He had not eaten for two days and his body was extremely weak. No one sympathized with him, no one took him in. If nothing unexpected happened, he would die this winter…
In this world, there were still people with flesh and blood. An old man walked over to the little boy while stepping on the white snow. He slowly bent down and took off his coat to cover the little boy. The little boy also felt the warmth. He slowly opened his eyes, which he had been trying to open for a long time, and looked at the old man with a pair of cold and heartless eyes.
"I have no ill intentions. I'm just putting some clothes on you.”The old man seemed to have seen through the little boy's dissatisfaction with this world. The little boy looked at the coat draped over his body and his eyes dimmed unconsciously. "You don't have a family?" The old man looked at the young man, and although he had a rough idea, he still wanted to confirm it. As expected, the little boy slowly shook his head. "What's your name?" the old man asked.”The little boy paused when he mentioned the name, but he still said three words in a childish voice,"Ye Gu City." The old man paused when he heard Ye Gu Cheng's name, but he continued,""Are you willing to come with me?" Hearing the old man's words, Little Leaf Ancient City bit his lips tightly as if he was thinking about something, but he still nodded.
"You can still walk?" The old man helped Ye Gu Cheng up and said,""How about this? I'll bring you to eat something first. Follow me.”Then, the old and the young walked on the cold and snow-covered road. The sky was still snowing heavily. It was unknown whether it was happy or sad…
The two of them discussed some problems as they walked. When Ye Gucheng asked the old man's name, the old man's palm trembled. Although it disappeared quickly, Ye Gucheng still noticed it. The old man paused for a moment and then smiled. You can call me Grandpa Ye from now on." Ye Gucheng wanted to ask the old man's full name, but the old man interrupted him and signaled him not to ask anymore. The two of them unknowingly came to a noodle shop. The hot noodles soared into the sky. It was definitely a pleasure to have a bowl of noodles on such a cold day. The two of them sat at the same table. Ye Gucheng, who had been hungry for two days, swallowed his saliva. "Little Hai! Two bowls of hot noodles." Not far away, he heard,"”After a while, Xiao Hai came over with two bowls of hot noodles. Ye Gucheng didn't care about anything else and started eating. " Shuttle, shuttle..." The sound of eating noodles kept ringing out.
"Uncle Ye! Is he your grandson?" The one called Little Hai asked. The old man smiled and did not answer. Little Hai did not ask too much. The old man also started to eat. Soon, both of them finished eating. After paying for the noodles, the old man pulled Little Leaf Ancient City towards the depths of the mountain…
"Grandpa Ye, where are we going?”
"Deep in the mountains." Elder Ye said indifferently.
"Deep in the mountains? What kind of place is the deep mountains?" Ye Gucheng was only five years old, after all, so he didn't know many things.
"The mountains are where I usually live, and also where you will train in the future!”Elder Ye put his hand on Ye Gucheng's shoulder as if to signal something.
"Training place? Why do we need to train?" Ye Gucheng asked in confusion.
"Because your surname is Ye!" Elder Ye continued in a fierce voice,"This world is not a peaceful one. It was a world of cannibalism! Have you forgotten your family?"
" Family..." Ye Gucheng muttered. Suddenly, a wave of sadness spread from the soles of Ye Gu Cheng's feet to his brain. At this moment, Ye Gucheng thought of his father, mother, and his clansmen.
He vaguely remembered…
"Ah ~"
"Ah ~"
The sound of destruction continued to ring out, and blood qi filled the sky. A group of black-robed men rose into the sky with bloody sabers in their hands. A golden-haired man landed on the ground and wiped his bloody blade with his hand. He walked to the side of a heavily injured middle-aged man and said sinisterly,"Ye Tiancheng, you'd better hand over the thing! Before the man could finish his sentence…
"Peng…"
Ye Tiancheng's palm was covered in golden light, and he sent the black-robed man flying dozens of feet away. The man in black got up and wiped the blood from his mouth. He said fiercely,""Ye Tiancheng, in that case, don't blame me! Kill! We can't let any of them off!" Ye Tiancheng knew that the Ye Clan would not be able to survive after hearing the black-robed man's words. "Protector of the Ye Clan! Block it!" After Ye Tiancheng finished speaking, dozens of people flew into the air and fought with the group of men in black.
"Ice! Quickly pull Gu Cheng over!" Ye Gu Cheng's mother, Li Bing, pulled him over.
"Ice, help me block it. No one is allowed to hinder me!”Li Bing knew what Ye Tiancheng wanted to do.
" Tsk tsk…Ye Tiancheng, you're the clan leader of a clan, and now it's your turn to be a woman…" The golden-haired man in black continued before he could finish his sentence,""Ye Tiancheng, what are you doing! Bastard! Stop!"
Three small golden spheres floated in Ye Tiancheng's hand, and he slowly tried to fuse the three small spheres into Ye Gucheng's body.
"Bastard!" The golden-haired man could no longer sit still. He raised his Blood Saber and wanted to use a killing move to destroy Ye Tiancheng's plan. However, Li Bing blocked Ye Tiancheng's path with a swoosh. She wouldn't allow the golden-haired man to do this!
"Good! Then I'll deal with you first! Blood Blade, break!" The golden-haired man's blood saber was instantly filled with an explosive aura, as if it had the power to destroy the world! Accompanied by the sound of tearing space, it charged towards the three of them! Li Bing frowned and quickly formed a complicated seal with his palm.
"Seal! Mian Mo!" In an instant, Li Bing's hand formed a thick imprint.
"Go!"
At this moment, the golden-haired, black-robed man's destructive energy also tore through space.
" Hiss hiss hiss…" Li Bing tried his best to block the attack.
Ye Tiancheng was also undergoing the final fusion! Ye Tiancheng was also sweating profusely.
" Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up…" Ye Tiancheng muttered silently. After a while, he finally succeeded.
"Boom ~"
" Ah…" Li Bing's hand seal was ultimately unable to block the golden-robed man's attack!
"Instantly form a seal!" In an instant, Ye Tiancheng formed a seal with a flip of his hand.
"Go!"
"Boom!" It finally blocked the golden-robed man's attack! However, Li Bing was already vomiting blood. Ye Tiancheng hurriedly picked Li Bing up and said anxiously,""Bingbing!" But he still died.
" Mom! Mom!" Ye Gucheng, who was only four and a half years old, knew that his mother was seriously injured. No matter how he called her, it was useless.
Ye Tiancheng's hands trembled as he said,"Housekeeper Ye, listen to me!" Quickly send the young master out of the city! " Hand Young Master over to him…" Ye Tiancheng sighed.
"Hahaha! Ye Tiancheng, the biggest mistake you made in your life was to drive him away! Otherwise, today's outcome would be uncertain! He's not here and you want him to escape? What a joke!"
"Yes, sir!" Housekeeper Ye came down from the sky and carried Little Leaf Ancient City on his back, wanting to leave. The golden-haired man in black allowed him to bring Little Leaf Ancient City away! Just as they were about to attack, Ye Tiancheng blocked them and said,""Hurry up and leave!" "Ye Tiancheng! I know that you have your own strengths, but in the face of absolute strength, you have no chance!”"Is that so?" Ye Tiancheng's body was covered in golden light, and his aura suddenly soared! Increase in strength.
"Ye Tiancheng, you really have a pure Yang body! It actually fused with it. No! Just now, I thought that you were a lunatic who had randomly fused with that kid! It was strange that he could not die after fusing three of them. Now, it seemed that the kid had a Pure Yang Sacred Body! It seems that we can't leave any of them alive. Otherwise, they will definitely bring disaster to our race!”"That depends on whether you have the ability! Housekeeper Ye, leave quickly!" Boom! Ye Tiancheng and the golden-haired man began to fight! Without the blond man's obstruction, Housekeeper Ye quickly brought Little Leaf Ancient City away. However, Housekeeper Ye didn't follow Ye Tiancheng's instructions. Instead, he left the Little Leaf Ancient City in a family's house in the Ice Snow City and rushed back to fight a bloody battle. However, the family was afraid that Shou Qian would even chase the Little Leaf Ancient City out. On the other side, the Ye Clan was unable to defeat a group of men in black, and all of them died in battle! One of Ye Tiancheng's golden orbs was forcefully pulled out.
Ye Gucheng could only vaguely remember what happened back then. As for who the man in black was? What were the three balls that hit his body? He didn't know. Unconsciously, tears rolled down Ye Gucheng's eyes. Ye Gucheng's tears were strange. Half a year ago, it was no longer a colorless and transparent liquid, but a pure blue gel that dripped down drop by drop. His eyes had also turned blue half a year ago. This was also the reason why no one in Ice Snow City took him in, because they all felt that this would bring them disaster and misfortune.
" Let's go..." There was a faint trace of tears in Ye Gucheng's eyes, but Ye Gucheng did not notice it. The two of them continued to step on the white snow and walked deeper into the mountains.
Along the way, he could occasionally see snow swallows and snow eagles hovering in the air, occasionally making sharp cries…Where there were high mountains, there would be flowing water, where there were forests, there would be bird nests, and where there were deep mountains, there would be wild beasts. Especially Snow City. Snow City was not only famous for its snow and ice, but it was also connected to a deep mountain. This deep mountain was covered in snow all year round, just like Snow City. That was why people called it Snow Mountain! The snowy mountains were famous for their snow beasts, and there were quite a few mid-level snow beasts and a few high-level snow beasts. There was even the legendary divine beast, the Black Tortoise!
Snow beasts were very valuable. Just the fur of a low-level snow beast could support an ordinary family for half a year. If he could capture a mid-level snow beast alive, he would be rich. His family would be able to live comfortably for the rest of their lives. Not to mention the high-level ones. There were only a few High Rank Spiritual Beasts in this continent, but it was not entirely non-existent. Just as Elder Ye had said, the world was not a beautiful place. It was the same in Ji Continent. There were a total of four hegemonic countries. Ji Yuan Country, Snow Country, Sun City and Death Country, these four superpowers. Of course, there were also many species, such as the elves, dwarves, giants, and so on. However, the elves and dwarves loved peace and would not participate in the war. Moreover, they each had their own abilities. For example, the elves were good at medicine and archery, while the dwarves were good at forging weapons. This was also the reason why it could not be destroyed. The Snow City where Ye Gu City was located was a city in the Snow Country. Unknowingly, the two had also arrived at the foot of the snow mountain. From time to time, they could see groups of xiuzhe coming up the mountain. Clearly, they were here for the snow beasts.
"Grandpa Ye, where is your house?" Little Leaf Ancient City asked.
"Look." Elder Ye pointed at a cave in the middle of the snowy mountain. Little Leaf Ancient City was shocked! Ye Gucheng was not surprised that the cave was habitable, but he was amazed at how to get past the steep cliff. If he was not careful, he might fall off the cliff and be smashed into pieces.
At this moment, a few xiuzhe walked over and heard Elder Ye's words. They all laughed.
"Hehe…Brother, did I hear wrongly? Was that where he lived? Even the xiuzhe of my two jie might not be able to go over. He is just an old man…haha, I'm dying of laughter!”A man said to the people beside him.
"Let's go. Don't look for trouble." A white-robed man seemed to be the leader, but he didn't say anything else. After they left, the white-robed man only took a deep look at Elder Ye.
The Ancient City of Little Leaves looked at the cliff in the distance and felt his scalp tingle. This was really risking his life.
"Don't think about it and continue walking. It's not as difficult as you think.”Old Ye pulled Little Ye Gu Cheng and continued to walk up the mountain. Luckily, there were xiuzhe opening the way so there were no ordinary snow beasts attacking. They safely arrived at the middle of the snow mountain. There were usually low-level snow beasts in the middle of the snow mountain, and only mid-level and high-level snow beasts were found in the middle and upper levels. Of course, there were also times when accidents happened.
"I didn't ask you to fly over and see the chains. Stepping on the iron chains from here to the other side, I'll let you sleep in the cave! Training starts today. Don't forget that you have a blood feud! To survive in this world, one needed strength, not to mention deep hatred! Look carefully!" After saying that, Elder Ye kicked his legs and spread his hands. He stepped on the iron chain one after the other, but the iron chain did not shake at all.
" Shua." Elder Ye's body was as light as a swallow, but he was as steady as Mount Tai. His two feet stepped on the ground in harmony, one in front and one behind. He didn't look at his feet at all and slid over quickly as if he was confident. Because Elder Ye's speed was too fast, it was as if he had slipped past. Little Leaf Ancient City was dumbfounded. " Shua…" Elder Ye slid over from the side of the cave.
"With your current ability, it's impossible for you to cross. So I have to train you in other things. When you have the ability to not fall off the cliff, I'll let you cross the chain.”Elder Ye said seriously.
"What training? Little Leaf Ancient City asked.
"Horse stance! Don't underestimate this simple training. It was the most effective training for building the foundation. If you couldn't even endure this, then there was no need for the rest of the training. Just treat it as me seeing wrongly, and you're even more sorry for your name! Because your surname is Ye!" Ye Gucheng nodded thoughtfully and said,""I am Ye Gu Cheng! I will persevere!"
"I hope so! Remember your promise. In the morning, the snow swallows chirped as an order! He stood up and squatted until noon. Apart from that, there would be another training session in the afternoon.”
"What training?" Little Leaf Ancient City asked.
"Painting." Elder Ye spat out a simple word.
"Painting?" Ye Gucheng was confused.
"That's right, it's painting!" Elder Ye said thoughtfully.
"Why draw?" Little Leaf Ancient City continued to ask.
"I'll explain to you later." Since Elder Ye said so, Ye Gu Cheng didn't ask any more questions.
"I will prepare three meals a day for you. In addition, I said that you are not allowed to sleep in the cave without crossing the chain. As a citizen of the Snow Country, it wouldn't be a joke if word got out that he was afraid of the cold!”
Little Leaf Ancient City nodded.
"If it's really cold, you can gather qi in your head and sink it into your dantian. This kind of qi is called true qi! You can spread qi all over your body, so you can keep out the cold. Remember this!" Elder Ye reminded him again.
"Then are you doing the martial-art squat or drawing now?”"It's afternoon now. Of course, I'm painting. Wait!" After saying that, Elder Ye slid into the cave. Ye Gucheng was carefully watching Elder Ye's every move, trying to figure out what he was doing.
