Chapter 159: Danger Averted
“Phew… it’s finally over.”
The two of them quickly sat down on the snowy ground and panted heavily.
Qin Xiaoxi’s Yue Maiden Sword was already covered in blood. She grabbed a handful of snow and smeared it directly on her sword. After repeating it over and over again, the Yue Maiden Sword finally regained its original luster.
“This snow monster… is really difficult to deal with.” Qin Xiaoxi hurriedly put away her sword. At this moment, she almost fell to the ground.
“These snow monsters of the Northern Region are not afraid of death. They came over like crazy.” This was the first time Jiang Yun had faced such a terrifying monster.
Since the smaller monster was so abnormal, it was obvious what would happen if the giant monster they encountered last night saw them.
The two of them decided to sit down and rest for a while before continuing their way to the Holy Saint Snow Mountain.
However, the battle with the snow monsters consumed a lot of energy and time. Jiang Yun felt that dusk was coming again.
He only hoped that he could find a suitable shelter tonight.
Otherwise, he and Qin Xiaoxi would be frozen into ice on the snow mountain.
“Do you feel that there are signs of wind?” Qin Xiaoxi looked up at the sky. She kept feeling that the cold wind was getting stronger.
Jiang Yun nodded.
“Let’s keep going up and find a place to rest.”
After saying that, Jiang Yun stood up and helped Qin Xiaoxi to stand up.
After they tidied up, they continued to walk toward the Holy Saint Snow Mountain.
Boom… boom…
Just as they were about to move, they felt the snow beneath their feet was trembling rhythmically.
Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun looked at each other. Could it be the giant snow monster that they saw yesterday?
The two of them could not help but panic when they thought of this.
The disturbance of the snow monster group had just dispersed when another giant monster came in a hurry.
Jiang Yun looked around carefully, trying to confirm which direction the giant monster was coming from. However, he did not see any figure of the giant monster but he could tell that the monster was approaching them! If it was not from the front, then where was it?
Jiang Yun could only feel that the movement was getting bigger. The two of them were so shaken that they could not even stand on their feet.
If it was not in front, then was it behind them?
Just as they thought of this, Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi instantly felt a powerful pressure coming from the top.
For a moment, it was as if everything around them was covered by a thick dark cloud.
However, Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi knew that this wasn’t a dark cloud! This was clearly a gigantic human-shaped shadow!
At this moment, a terrifying and sharp long howl came from behind them.
Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun slowly turned around.
They saw a gigantic and extremely ugly snow monster from the Northern Region right behind them.
That was the giant monster they saw last night.
It had sharp fangs, blood-red eyes, a huge and thick body!
The two of them were also stunned on the spot. The snow monster from the Northern Region had only revealed half of its body, but its feet were nowhere to be seen. Could it be…
“This is bad… the feet of this monster is buried at where we are standing!”
In a trance, Qin Xiaoxi heard Jiang Yun shouting.
The next second, the hill they were standing on started to rise!
“Jiang Yun! His body is buried under there!” Qin Xiaoxi realized it at this moment.
It was already too late. The scene was a mess for the two of them. The monster was about to stand up straight. If Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun didn’t evacuate in time, they would probably fall from the sky and die without a complete corpse!
The monster roared again.
This time, it was roaring at the two of them. This roar carried a strong airflow which caused Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun’s hair to blow. Of course, there was also an indescribable stench mixed in it.
Jiang Yun quickly pulled Qin Xiaoxi and rushed down the slope.
However, the monster was indeed a little fast. It had only run a few steps and it caused Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun to lose their footing on the ground. The feeling of weightlessness was coming directly at them. The last thing the two of them saw was the ground that was at least ten meters away from them!
The two of them, who was originally running, finally rolled down the monster’s slowly straightened legs because they missed their footing!
Qin Xiaoxi was completely panicking at that moment. She could not think properly about what she should do next when she rolled down uncontrollably. While panicking, she only felt a pair of powerful hands quickly grabbing onto her!
It was Jiang Yun!
“You hold on tight, Xiaoxi.”
In the chaos, Qin Xiaoxi heard Jiang Yun’s voice clearly. It was like a life-saving straw.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Jiang Yun quickly hugged Qin Xiaoxi and then flipped himself over!
Plop!
The two of them slammed onto the snowy ground.
Qin Xiaoxi was so scared that she closed her eyes. When she fell to the ground, she only saw that Jiang Yun was already under her. The moment Jiang Yun was about to land, he quickly switched places with Qin Xiaoxi and acted as her meat shield.
“Uh… uh…”
Although there was a thick layer of snow under him, Jiang Yun’s head was buzzing when he landed on the ground.
Qin Xiaoxi was lying on him and stared at him as if she had not recovered from what had just happened.
The two of them looked at each other.
“Are you alright?”
Qin Xiaoxi also asked hurriedly.
