Feng Yun stood at the front of the door, his back turned away from the room. Behind him, a girl was changing into her clothes and was quite fast about it. This was Xia Qing. Feng Yun had a straight and emotionless face on him as he stared forward. In his mind however, he felt very awkward. He silently tapped his foot multiple times to calm his anxiety.
"Xia Qing, are you done yet? We need to check out the expedition."
"I'm almost---done." Xia Qing replied to him and managed to get the last article of clothing on her before walking and standing alongside Feng Yun. Feng Yun turned to see her and saw a girl with bright green robes and dark silky purple hair. She had pure facial features and azure colored eyes that reflected the sky itself. Feng Yun's mouth slightly gaped before he quickly closed it again and assumed a serious posture.
Xia Qing however saw this and decided to tease him a bit.
"Feng Yun, do you think this looks good on me?" She said smartly. Feng Yun was surprised by the question but he replied without hesitation.
"You look great." He smiled at her and walked down the stairs to the main lobby. Xia Qing was dumbfounded. She had only meant it as a joke but he had replied so seriously. She had slightly flustered cheeks.
"Damn it Feng Yun. What's wrong with you to be able to make my own plan backfire on me. Haha, how smart." Xia Qing then followed Feng Yun down the stairs.
Feng Yun and Xia Qing didn't stop to eat breakfast as they already had large amounts of food in their own interspatial materials. They passed a long line of drunk and loud men who were making beer rain and acting all rowdy. Feng Yun sighed. He didn't like the sounds that uncivilized barbarians make. He decided to just let them be and pass through unsuspectingly. However, one man had already noticed the two. In particular, he noticed Xia Qing. The man stood up from his table and walked right up to the duo. Feng Yun narrowed his eyes. What did the fool want with them?
The man was middle aged and very normal looking. He had huge bulging muscles and a cloak made out of beast fur. He had large wild hair and lust filled eyes. He was staring at Xia Qing.
"Hello, little kids. I see that you appear to be lost. Why don't uncle take you to where you need to be? After all, the little girl must be very scared correct?"
The man spoke with a soft tone but it was obviously fabricated. This man was a pervert and would kidnap them if they went with them. Feng Yun decided to play the innocent child and Xia Qing understood immediately. she too decided to play along.
"Uncle, you are truly correct. We don't know where our parents are and we need to find them." Feng Yun had a scared expression on his face and looked at the man with hope. Xia Qing also looked up with a scared expression. She put on a wry smile at the man. The man's smile widened further and continued.

"Well then young boy. Give me the girls hand and we shall go find your parents. After all, something could happen to your sister here if she isn't with someone strong." The man smiled wickedly. The man extended a hand towards Feng Yun and Xia Qing. He didn't think that the two children in front of him had cultivated at all. Feng Yun snorted in his head with disdain. Only at the Tempered Body 8th layer and this shameless? The world doesn't need someone like you.
"Uncle thank you so much for your offered help and us two really appreciate it. However, old man you should truly be more aware of the people you're dealing with." Feng Yun's attitude made a one hundred eighty degree turn and his hand chopped down on the man's arm. Before the man could realize what happened, the man's arm was sliced cleanly and laid down on the floor. The man couldn't comprehend what happened for a moment, but then he realized and began screaming.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!! WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO MY ARM YOU DAMN CHILD." The man had lost his sanity from the pain. Feng Yun smiled coldly and snorted in disdain.
"Hmph, I only use a little of my energy and your arm snaps like that? Looks like all those muscles were for show only. You dared to make a perverted attempt on my companion and thus you got what you deserved. So shameless and disgusting. Go fuck yourself you bastard." Feng Yun's words were sharp and precise drawing attention from other tables that heard the man's scream. They stared at the arm on the floor and then at Feng Yun whose arm was soaked in blood. They involuntarily let out a gasp and the room turned silent. The man regained some of his composure and yelled at Feng Yun.
" You little freak. I'll kill you. I'll rip you into shreds and then rape that girl of yours until she wants to kill herself!" The man had completely spilled his disgusting intentions in his loss of sanity. Feng Yun cringed in disgust and stared at Xia Qing who looked at him while nodding. She too was disgusted and signaled Feng Yun to end his life. The man lunged at Feng Yun with the aura of a Tempered Body eighth layer cultivator but Feng Yun didn't even try to block it. Feng Yun brought forth the raw power of the Tempered Body ninth layer and hit it at the man. The man was instantly smashed and his organs were churned together like a meat paste. The whole crowd was astonished at the power of Feng Yun and as he walked with Xia Qing out the exit, no one obstructed his path.
They exited and left the inn in the direction of the expedition sign up location. Feng Yun had did some research and found out that it was near the center of the Snow Beast Town. It was right in front of the silver building known as the City Lords Mansion of Snow Beast Town. The Guo family ruled over the town. Feng Yun and Xia Qing walked to the center in a casual pace. Along the way, they looked at the numerous shops and items. Some weren't too high quality but they were still decent regardless. They got there quite quickly and saw a large stand with a fifteen year old boy standing there. He had pretty good looks but had a slash going over his left eye. The boy saw them approaching and looked a bit more attentive. He looked towards them and asked them a question.

"Hello friends. I assume that you are here to join the expedition taking place in two days." The boy assumed a very friendly tone and smiled at the duo.
"Indeed, senior. I wonder. Can you give us details about the expedition?" Feng Yun cupped his hands in a form of respect. The fifteen year old boy smiled at this and happily spoke.
"Haha. Junior brother, the expedition will be going up the Snow Demon Mountain. There is a rather infamous Xiantian realm beast that has caused a lot of trouble for Snow Beast Town hiding in a lair. We wish to kill the beast and seize the treasures it may guard. I wonder if junior brother would be willing to accompany us with the young junior sister as well." The boy shot a glance at Xia Qing but it wasn't filled with any weird intentions. Feng Yun smiled and nodded his head at Xia Qing in which she responded in kind.
"We will do this senior. What do I call you senior?" Feng Yun wished to know the boy's identity.
"Junior brother, my name is Hao Jiang but you can just call me Senior Hao. What about you junior?"
"My name is Qiu Yun and my friend's name is Huo Qing." Feng Yun used false names in case someone recognized them. He thought of this as the safest decision. Hao Jiang nodded and spoke.
"Well then, Junior Brother Qiu, I hope we see each other on the expedition and take care of each other. There will also be plenty of other beasts there so please be careful."
"Likewise." Feng Yun and Xia Qing left the area and went to check out the shops more. Hao Jiang stared at their backs and sighed. Ones at the Tempered Body 9th Layer and another at the 8th layer peak. So young as well. They have incredible talent! Feng Yun would be surprised that Hao Jiang could sense his cultivation so easily unless he knew that he was in fact a Xiantian realm cultivator! Hao Jiang thought of all this with a hint of envy but a lot of admiration.
The duo ended up buying a few things including clothes for Xia Qing and many Qi Recovering Pellets. Qi Recovering Pellets had the ability to recover up to fifty percent of your qi in an instant. After their period of shopping, they returned to their room and sat on their beds. Xia Qing cultivated for a while before becoming tired. She took a shower and went to sleep. Feng Yun however was preparing for the expedition. His consciousness was submerged within the Void Universal Manual working as fast as it could to condense pills made from beast souls.
Feng Yun slightly smiled. This manual truly was magnificent. It was already useful enough but it still had plenty of more uses that had yet to be revealed. Feng Yun could not wait until he was stronger to unlock these areas. He had collected many beast souls at the Rabid Wasteland and Black Horn Mountain but had not chosen to refine them into pulls as he was always in constant danger. Now he was refining them all in one go. Each poll that he refined increased his qi storage by a little bit. However, based on the amount of pills that he was refining, he would be gaining a lot. He occasionally got some rest but he was a light sleeper. He was used to it from being an assassin in his previous life. Two days flashed in the blink of an eye and Feng Yun and Xia Qing walked out of the inn. They also payed the innkeeper the money as they were unsure of whether they would come back after the expedition or not. Many people's gazes stared at them, but nine dared to cause trouble. They had seen the monstrous strength that the boy possessed and none wanted to tangle with him.
The trip back to the same location where they had signed up was fairly easy as they already knew the layout. The duo walked towards the center and noticed a large group of people gathering around the City Lord's Mansion. There were many young cultivators and some men in the Xiantian realm. Most were weaker than Feng Yun excluding the Xiantian realm cultivators. Feng Yun and Xia Qing wore hoods over their faces and stood in the crowd. Feng Yun looked around and could make out the figure of Hao Jiang standing there looking attentive towards the speaker on the stage. In front of the crowd was a large stage with, as before mentioned, a man speaking and projecting his voice loudly with qi.
"All of you gathered here today, I am truly glad that you have come to help us get rid of the creature on the mountain. I, Guo Leng am grateful and we will naturally offer you compensation for those that attend. Those that contribute the most will receive a portion of the treasure while those that contribute to a lesser extent shall receive monetary gains from the Guo Family. " Guo Leng was obviously the City Lord from the way that he carried himself with pride. He was somewhat unremarkable in his looks but his smile contained that of honesty and compassion. The crowd murmured among themselves. They thought that the rewards were particularly appealing even if they didn't do that much but Feng Yun didn't care about the money. He wished to see the treasures that the beast left behind. If they could help him advance in cultivation then he would be very satisfied. He once more paid attention as Guo Leng spoke.
"I shall head the expedition to kill the beast known as the Snow Demon Gorilla and seize it's treasure. The journey is indeed risky and the beast is at a very high level of the Xiantian realm. With teamwork we could defeat it but some of us may die. Consider it and think about whether you wish to come." Guo Leng had a serious expression on his face. Some parts of the crowd left but most of them stayed. To them the rewards that this expedition brought them would be worth it if it was guarded by a strong beast. Guo Leng nodded and beckoned the crowd forward. He began to walk up a tall and domineering mountain with a heavy presence of ice qi. Several Guo Family elders walked behind him and then followed the crowd. As the duo, Feng Yun and Xia Qing began to walk, Hao Jiang spotted them and waved at them. Feng Yun waved back and continued up the mountain.
The group was making good progress. The lair of the Snow Demon Ogre was very high up the mountain and they had covered nearly half of the distance in a couple hours. Along the way, they met some beasts but they were either killed or they ran away upon seeing the large number of experts. Feng Yun and Xia Qing remained calm and indifferent to the things that were happening right now. As they climbed, they would occasionally feel the gravity of the mountain, as if it was warning them not to go further. Xia Qing didn't feel the gravity to a larger extent then Feng Yun did due to her Ice Fire Emperor Eagle spirit having very good compatibility with the qi. In fact she seemed to be absorbing it into her body. She was thriving in this kind of environment.
"We are nearing the lair of the Snow Demon Ogre. There will be a large abundance in powerful beasts that will attack you on sight. Make sure you don't die and live to kill the Ogre." Guo Leng turned around and warned them. The crowd nodded and began to continue to ascend. Half an hour later, a pack of wolves came out of a crevice that had been used as a passageway for beasts. The wolves had snow white pelts with red colored eyes and claws as sharp as talons. These were Ice Demon Wolves. They were particularly powerful in the cold and had a home field advantage. This pack of wolves each had the cultivation of the Tempered Body 8th layer peak. The alpha leader, a particularly big one had the cultivation of the ninth layer. The pack consisted of about thirty to forty wolves. This was a lot but the crowd could still overpower it. Not to mention they had secret powerhouses like Feng Yun and Xia Qing.
The members of the Xiantian realm stepped back with a lazy expression on their faces. Evidently, they did not want to participate. This kind of thing wasn't worth their attention. Guo Leng looked on with half bored eyes. Feng Yun snorted with disdain at this. Hmph, these people are too shameless. They don't even bother to fight with their troops. His thoughts were kept in his head however else he would be in quite the predicament. The crowd of about thirty people excluding Feng Yun and Xia Qing went forward to face the wolves. The sounds of swords and axes clashing against the pelts of the wolves rang throughout the mountain. Some men were having some trouble fighting multiple wolves as the pack had advantage in numbers. The men were cultivators however and a difference in numbers didn't faze them. The wolves began spilling blood and their numbers began to diminish. The wolves let out howls of terror as qi went against claws. Feng Yun was merely taking a stroll through the carnage and whatever wolves that came his way were slapped by his hand and became mutilated corpses. He didn't even look at their corpses as he made his way to the alpha male. The large wolf that gave off an ice like qi had not changed it's expression despite its own kin being wantonly slaughtered. The wolf held its head high and stared coldly at the crowd of people. One cultivator could be seen running at the wolf with an axe in his hand, a sharp rush of qi flowing straight at the wolf.
The wolf merely snorted in disdain and waved its claw swiftly at the cultivator. The cultivator was supposedly at the eighth layer peak but in that instant, his body was split into two even sections. Feng Yun looked slightly surprised but he quickly recovered and continued to walk straight up to the wolf. The wolf, having noticed him turned its head around slowly and its expression turned slightly more attentive. It noticed a difference in Feng Yun's strength than the other cultivators. He was definitely someone that the wolf should not underestimate. The wolf adjusted its posture and leaped off the ground, lunging at Feng Yun who still looked calm. The wolf's pounce was very terrifying, filled with the power of a ninth layer Tempered Body cultivator but Feng Yun did not even bat an eye. He raised his hand and summoned a fierce lightning qi in his palm. He appeared in front of the wolf in a flash and swiped the fist on the wolf's skull breaking it instantly and blood splashing everywhere. The wolf had a look of shock before falling to the floor. Feng Yun let out a yawn. He hadn't expended even the slightest bit of effort in dealing with the beast. It didn't take long for the rest of the surviving wolves to realize that their leader had been murdered and their morale fell even further. They were finished off very quickly after this and soon, the originally snowy ground was now showered in a deep red.
Many looked at Feng Yun in surprise. They hadn't thought that Feng Yun would have such strength at his young age. Everyone except Xia Qing was amazed. She was already used to seeing his overpowering strength a lot. She too could have taken care of that wolf with ease but chose not to since Feng Yun was closer to it. Hao Jiang walked up to him and said,
"Junior brother Qiu, you are truly strong. A beast that not a lot of cultivators at the ninth layer could defeat so easily as killed as easy as that. I admire you."
"Haha, Senior Hao. This much isn't that great. That beast had merely underestimated me and that had brought about its downfall. I thank you for the compliment however." Feng Yun was polite to Hao Jiang which prompted a smile to appear on the latter's face. Hao Jiang knew that Feng Yun was being modest and that made his impression of him grow higher. The Xiantian Realm experts who had decided to sit back and watch had now got up and assumed control of the group once more. A few members of the crowd had died in the wolf encounter and were slightly angry at Guo Leng. They did not voice their feelings however and walked on. Xia Qing stood next to Feng Yun and stared ahead at the path in front of the group. Feng Yun turned to look as well and saw that there was a extremely large cave at the top of the mountain that could be visible to the naked eye. It seems that we have arrived, Feng Yun thought. The ice cold qi that had been oppressing them had only gotten stronger and made Feng Yun feel like he was being suffocated. He gritted his teeth and moved on. Xia Qing did the same. Was this the power of a Xiantian Realm beast's aura? Feng Yun's beautiful eyes flashed with excitement. He wanted to see this beast up close and obtain the treasures that it guarded. Perhaps they could help him and Xia Qing advance to the Xiantian Realm even faster than normal. The group ascended the mountain with a great pace. They could see the destination clearly so they got excited and rushed towards the entrance. The snow did not affect their stamina whatsoever. However, they were fools and forgot that there was a beast guarding it.
"You fools, get back here! That thing is still there!" Guo Leng shouted but it was too late. The seven to ten people that rushed in were harshly assaulted by a fierce qi and were knocked off of the mountain. They fell straight down without stopping and the sound of bones breaking could be heard. Screams invaded the people's ears. Those people had died in a single instant. Their originally confident faces had turned pale from fright. They turned their heads slowly towards the cave and a pair of red eyes glowed in the darkness. A large ogre walked out, every step reverberating through the mountain. It was ten meters tall with snow white fur and thick muscles. It bared its teeth which looked sharper than spears. A pair of twin horns emerged from its skull which made it look much more menacing. The ogre gazed at them and narrowed its eyes. It slightly smiled with a cruel and murderous aura being emitted from it.
"ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!" The ogre let out a deafening sound and it intimidated the heck out of the party. Feng Yun and Xia Qing were calm but still surprised at the massiveness of the beast. It was far beyond what they imagined. Guo Leng flinched but did not order for the group to retreat. Instead, he said,
"This is what we came here to kill! Destroy this monster and I will reward you handsomely. Me and my elders will help as well." Guo Leng said this with a hesitant voice. Feng Yun shook his head. This monster's strength was on a magnitude that no one could have expected. How could they hope to defeat it? The only way that Feng Yun could profit from this was if he sneaked around the ogre and stole the treasures but that would be difficult. It would be impossible to avoid a direct confrontation.
"Well well, we may have a little bit of a problem," Feng Yun smiled wryly while staring at the monstrosity in front of them. How would they deal with this problem?
