A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 559 Can I Marry You!

Several more behemoths of the ice plains, driven into a frenzy, burst forth from the glacier, surrounding the group and launching a fierce attack without any regard for the situation.

Shen Tang was almost unable to withstand the sustained high-pressure battle. She raised her hand and conjured an earthen shield to block the ice beast's attack, but was knocked back several meters. Turning to Yun Han beside her, she asked breathlessly, "What exactly are these things?"

They are by no means ordinary wild beasts, but while they are described as polluted species, they do not possess that nauseating, foul odor; they are more like giant beasts naturally born from the icy plains.

The ice sword in Yun Han's hand had just shattered. Cold energy surged in his palm, and he condensed another ice sword. He unleashed several sharp sword energies and took the opportunity to answer, "These are ice beasts formed naturally by the energy of the ice plains. They live only in the ice plains."

Hearing this familiar name, Shen Tang felt inexplicably familiar with it and suddenly remembered the birthday banquet held in the old imperial city years ago.

At that time, she was a fake princess who had just returned to the empire and had no power or influence.

At that time, Shen Qingli was still around, and she was at the height of her popularity.

At that highly anticipated birthday banquet, Yun Han presented Shen Qingli with a precious gemstone necklace, which made everyone envious.

Shen Tang remembered that the necklace was made from some kind of huge crystal.

If she remembered correctly, those crystals seemed to be the energy crystals of this ice beast.

Yun Han's face was a little pale, and his chest heaved violently during the battle. "But the situation now is completely different from back then."

He continued to explain, "The energy in the ice field region has a chance to give birth to this kind of ice beast, but the probability of encountering it is extremely low. Back then, in order to collect nine ice beast crystals, I inquired from many places and spent several months to find them."

He looked at the powerful and terrifying ice beasts before him, his tone becoming even more solemn, "According to records from the Ice Plains over the past hundred years, an ice beast of this level might only appear once every few decades."

The sudden appearance of so many powerful ice beasts is clearly unusual.

"Moreover, for some reason, the ice crystals inside them have disappeared, and they have become extremely violent and aggressive, as if they have gone mad."

Shen Tang fell into deep thought upon hearing this. Could this be related to the energy of the riots in the Icefield region?
They had just killed an ice beast, but indeed found no crystal inside it.

More and more orcs were wounded on the battlefield, and everyone's physical strength was nearing its limit. Shen Tang didn't have time to think it through. He immediately activated his top-level healing ability and exchanged a large number of recovery potions from his system space to distribute to everyone.

After several days of fierce fighting, they finally defeated the ice beasts. Just as they were preparing to return, cries for help suddenly came from not far away.
"Help!"

There's something going on over there!
Could they be orcs trapped in a nearby tribe?

Everyone rushed over to check.

Sure enough, a formidable ice serpent was seen besieging an orc group.

The group consisted of dozens of orcs, but most were not very strong; the strongest were only at the eighth or ninth rank. They were pulling a lot of goods behind them, making them look like a caravan that had strayed into this place.

Most importantly, their clothing and appearance did not resemble those of the orcs of the northern ice plains of the Nightbright Empire; rather, they seemed to come from another country.

Those stronger ones were clearly hired bodyguards; they were fighting the ice serpents, desperately protecting the caravan behind them.

A young-looking male orc in the group was intentionally or unintentionally protected at the back, as if everyone was afraid something might happen to him.

The young man was slender and tall, with half of his face covered by a light veil, making it impossible to see his features. However, from a distance, he exuded an ethereal and otherworldly aura, suggesting that he was of extraordinary status.

However, he seemed to have injured his leg and was being supported by an orc, making it difficult for him to move.

Shen Tang and the others rushed forward to provide assistance.

After a brief battle, they successfully killed the ice serpent and saved the caravan.

The beastmen were overjoyed and wanted to kneel down to express their gratitude, crying, "Thank you, our benefactor!"

"Thank God! If it weren't for your timely rescue, we would have lost our lives here today!"

"Thank you for your rescue, adults! We are willing to offer you a generous reward!"

Shen Tang nodded slightly, "No need to be polite. Since you have appeared in our country, and since we have seen you, it is only right that we lend a helping hand."

Surprise flashed in the orcs' eyes; they hadn't expected their identities to be recognized so easily. The young man in the lead also looked at the strikingly beautiful female before him.

In fact, he had noticed Shen Tang long ago. From the moment she appeared with her team, his gaze was involuntarily drawn to her.

She was too beautiful and noble.

This unique charm makes it unforgettable.

Shen Tang naturally noticed this particularly conspicuous gaze and his eyes fell on the young orc at the front.

He was tall and handsome, with long, snow-white hair, the ends of which were slightly pink, braided and hanging down his right shoulder. Although his face was veiled, obscuring his features, his clear, bright, doe-like eyes were exceptionally pure and beautiful, suggesting that his features must be exquisite.

Although his clothes were ordinary, his noble and elegant demeanor revealed his extraordinary status. He didn't look like an ordinary merchant, but rather like a slightly thin nobleman.

A burly orc next to him recognized Shen Tang as the leader of the group and quickly introduced, "Greetings, sirs. We are not illegal immigrants, but a merchant caravan sent by the Yongdong Empire."

Yun Han frowned deeply. "The situation in the north is already so dire, it must be even worse in the Yongdong Empire. Why would you suddenly send a caravan here without any prior notice?"

The orc sighed, his face full of helplessness. "Just as you said, our Yongdong Empire is in a worse situation than here. Many people are starving... That's why we thought of selling our minerals to exchange for supplies and food in the south."

Although the Everwinter Empire is a world-renowned powerful nation, its orcs, though few in number, are extremely powerful in combat.

However, due to the harsh environment, scarce resources, and lagging technological development, many materials need to be imported in large quantities.

Its largest trading partner is the neighboring Nightfall Empire, with the two countries frequently exchanging energy minerals for daily necessities.

Shen Tang understood. "I see."

"Since your country has sent a caravan, our country will certainly treat you well and bring you back to the city with us."

The beastmen quickly helped the wounded and prepared to follow.

Shen Tang first treated their injuries, then took out some recovery potions from her space and handed them to them to help them recover their strength and condition as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, the one who was most seriously injured was this seemingly frail young master.

His thigh injury was severe, so deep that the bone was visible. Fortunately, Shen Tang quickly healed his injury, allowing him to be lively and energetic again.

"Female, you're amazing! I thought I was going to be a cripple for life. You're like a second mother to me!" The young man's eyes lit up when he saw that Shen Tang had easily healed his leg injury. He wished he could pounce on her and offer himself as a thank-you gift.

Unfortunately, before he could "repay in kind," Xiao Jin stepped forward and pinned him down, saying fiercely, "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Get away! Gratitude is gratitude, but just hand over your good stuff. What kind of behavior is this, hitting me? Believe me or not, I'll beat you up!"

The young man turned to Shen Tang and said with a wronged expression, "Female, your partner is so fierce."

Seeing his pitiful state, Xiao Jin felt an urge to punch him in the face!
What kind of demon came from, daring to play tea ceremony with him!

Shen Tang rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on, and quickly stopped him, "Alright, Ah Jin, let him go first."

Since they are foreign guests, they should be treated with courtesy.

After being released, the orc straightened his collar and looked intently at Shen Tang again, his eyes filled with infatuation and affection, sighing sincerely.

"You're so beautiful..."

"Can I marry you?"
