385: Nüxi! The un-sainted Nüwa? !

The girl's eyes sparkled with anticipation and reluctance.

Ye Xuan understood that this look was exactly like how Tang Linglong and Fire Linger looked at him.

This girl admired him.

Ye Xuan's heart stirred slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I'll definitely rush back to see you."

"That's great!"

The girl smiled brightly, as if ice and snow were melting, radiant like spring water.

"Tai Hao Gege, you must keep your word!"

Ye Xuan looked at her bright smile, and a strange sense of pity rose in his heart.

He vaguely felt that this illusion was not a simple test, but rather hid some important truth.

Perhaps the other party wanted to use this illusion to tell him something that couldn't be spoken.

After all, this girl looked exactly like Yue Xuan.

For some reason, Feng Lixi's appearance also flashed through Ye Xuan's mind.

It was only a brief encounter, but it made Ye Xuan unforgettable.

"Feng Lixi!"

Ye Xuan murmured to himself.

However, his words were heard by the girl.

The girl tilted her head, looking at him confusedly.

"Tai Hao Gege, why are you acting so strange today? What Feng Lixi? I'm Nv Xi, the Nv Xi who grew up with you!"

Nv Xi!

Ye Xuan's heart trembled.

He had seen this name in ancient texts: Nüwa Clan, surname Feng, given name Nv Xi, also known as Feng Lixi!

Could it be that this girl in front of him was Nüwa Clan!

Was it Nüwa before she became a Saint in ancient times?

And his current identity, Tai Hao, could it be the legendary elder brother and husband of Nüwa, Fuxi?

Ye Xuan's heart was in turmoil, but his expression remained calm.

After all, this was just a guess, and it was very likely that they just had the same name.

"Sorry, I didn't sleep well last night, so I'm a bit dazed."

Nv Xi didn't suspect anything, smiling as she took his hand and said, "Let's go, the tribesmen are waiting for you!"

.........

In the tribal square, dozens of strong hunters had already gathered.

They were clad in beast hides, holding bone spears, their muscles bulging, and their Qi and blood vigorous like a Dragon.

Every person seemed not to Cultivate Spiritual Qi, but the power of their Physical Body was extremely terrifying.

They could even rival some Yao Beasts known for their Physical Body.

"Tai Hao, this time you will lead the team to hunt Ice Armor Beasts in the northern snowfield."

A white-haired old man stepped forward and solemnly patted Ye Xuan's shoulder.

"Remember, you must return within ten days, otherwise the blizzard will seal the mountain, and it will be a big problem to return then."

Ye Xuan nodded.

"Understood."

"Take this; it will protect you."

The old man handed Ye Xuan an extremely sharp bone spear.

Ye Xuan took the bone spear from the old man, feeling the surging power contained within it.

This bone spear was actually polished from the spine of some ancient Vicious Beast; although it had no Spiritual Qi fluctuations, it contained terrifying power.

Even in later generations, this kind of Materials would be top-grade Materials enough to cause people to fight over them.

Now, it was made into such a crude bone spear, truly feeling a bit like a waste of natural resources.

"Depart!"

Ye Xuan shouted, looking at Nv Xi, who was still watching him from her original spot.

He led the hunting team away from the tribe.

...

Three days later, the northern snowfield.

The cold wind howled, and amidst the flying snow, Ye Xuan and his group finally found traces of the Ice Armor Beast.

"Tai Hao, look!"

A hunter pointed at a huge figure on a distant snowy slope.

It was a giant beast, ten zhang tall, covered in crystalline ice armor, its fangs like knives, its eyes crimson, and it was lowering its head to gnaw on the corpse of an unknown Vicious Beast.

"Prepare for battle!"

Ye Xuan said in a low voice.

He couldn't use Spiritual Qi now, and he didn't know the depth of that Ice Armor Beast, so it was better to be cautious.

The hunters quickly dispersed, approaching the Ice Armor Beast in an encircling formation.

Ye Xuan gripped the bone spear tightly, feeling the surging Qi and blood power within his body; this body's combat instincts far exceeded his imagination, as if it was born for hunting.

"Roar!"

The Ice Armor Beast sensed danger, suddenly raised its head, and let out an earth-shshaking roar!

"Charge!"

At Ye Xuan's command, the hunters simultaneously threw their bone spears!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The bone spears broke through the air, fiercely piercing into the Ice Armor Beast's body, but most were deflected by the hard ice armor, with only a few penetrating the joint gaps.

"Roar!"

The Ice Armor Beast cried out in pain, charging madly towards the crowd!

A glint flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes, his figure like lightning, instantly circling to the side of the Ice Armor Beast, and fiercely stabbing his bone spear towards its eye!

"Pfft!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Blood splattered, one of the Ice Armor Beast's eyes was blinded, and it rolled in pain, shaking the ground.

However, it did not lose its ability to resist; instead, it became even more ferocious, clearly Ye Xuan's attack had driven the Ice Armor Beast mad.

"Be careful! It's going to go berserk!"

Ye Xuan shouted.

"Okay, we'll make our move now!"

The hunters were delighted; this hunt was indeed going smoothly, and if they could bring back this Ice Armor Beast.

The tribe would have food for at least ten days, and You Xiong could even use the Ice Armor Beast's outer shell to forge some armor.

However, just as everyone was preparing to deliver a fatal blow, the sky suddenly darkened!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A purple lightning bolt struck, directly hitting the Ice Armor Beast's head, instantly killing it!

"What!"

Ye Xuan suddenly looked up; he felt Spiritual Qi.

In the sky, a figure stood in the air, purple Qi swirling around him, his face cold and stern.

That person looked down at everyone, with disdain in his eyes.

"Mere Mortals, are you even worthy of hunting such a Vicious Beast?"

Ye Xuan's pupils constricted.

Night Wu Shang!

No, this was not the future Night Wu Shang, but someone with the same appearance as him.

He just didn't know if the two were the same person.

After all, although their appearances were similar, this person's aura was even more ancient.

And what he held in his hand was not the Haotian Pagoda, but a ring of light blades.

"Who are you?"

Ye Xuan asked in a deep voice.

That person sneered.

"This Lord is a Heavenly Realm Divine General, Zixiao. I want the Yao Pill of this Vicious Beast."

With that, he waved his hand, and the Ice Armor Beast's corpse instantly exploded, a crystalline blue Yao Pill flying into his hand.

"You!"

The hunters were furious; this was the prey they had risked their lives to hunt!

Prey was already scarce in the ice plain; without this Ice Armor Beast, they would have to go deeper into the ice plain.

But the Vicious Beasts deep in the ice plain were even stronger, and a slight carelessness could lead to problems.

Moreover, this was Tai Hao's first time leading the team, and encountering such a problem would greatly disappoint the shaman and others.

Ye Xuan held back his impulsive companions, calmly saying, "Your Excellency, since you are from the Heavenly Realm, why do you snatch the belongings of Mortals?"

Zixiao scoffed.

"Mortal's things? Everything in this world belongs to the Heavenly Realm! Why should this Lord explain to you when I take it? You are nothing but ants."
