Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 207 Floating Ice City

"You're late, by a full five minutes."

Han Ruoruo shook her head slightly. This wasn't a matter of arriving early or late. She wondered what Wu Ming and Ling Luochen had been doing that made them late.

Han Ruoruo could understand Wu Ming's lateness. Fire-attribute Soul Masters were somewhat foolish, whether in love or in daily life, they were "foolish" in some ways.

But Ling Luochen didn't quite understand, so she looked at her, hoping she could explain it a little.

"It's my fault, Sister Ruoruo. I went to see Dai Yueheng. He—he hasn't been on a mission for a long time, since that time."

Lowering his head, Ling Luochen felt a pang of pity for Dai Yueheng, his former teammate and classmate. Dai Yueheng was now cultivating like a madman, and in a short time he was about to reach the threshold of Soul Douluo. It seemed that his family had provided him with a batch of high-level resources.

But now he has become unapproachable, and he doesn't wash his face every day. He doesn't care about his teacher-like image at all.

"Sigh, that's the Body Sect, and this is also a private matter of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. Even the Star Luo Royal Family can't interfere. It's only natural for an illegitimate child to avenge the murder of his mother. If it were me, I could also slaughter the entire Dai family."

With a slight shake of her head and a sigh, Han Ruoruo explained that she had been leading another team of junior students on a mission that day, but she had only heard about the incident from other people.

Dai Huabin also dropped out of school because of his previous conflict with Huo Yuhao, leaving his fiancée Zhu Lu alone at school, looking dejected. It seems that the Zhu family is also taking this opportunity to turn their fortunes around.

All I can say is that the whole thing is pretty ridiculous in Han Ruoruo's eyes. She never imagined that the person who started all this would be tricked like this by his own wife. To be honest, she has a good impression of Dai Hao, after all, he is a general who protects the country on the border.

Standing there, Han Ruoruo's words made Ling Luochen lower his head, and finally he sighed and gave up completely.

"Hey, let's go, Sister Ruoruo. My home is in the Floating Ice City area. Let me treat you properly after we finish the mission."

"No problem, then I'll leave it to you, Luo Chen."

"Luo Chen~ That's wonderful!"

"Hahaha, this mission will be a piece of cake! Our team has at least two Soul Douluo-level fighters, and Sister Ruo is even comparable to a Title Douluo!"

"Then it would be impolite of me to refuse."

"Don't you have other things to do?"

Wu Feng's words were somewhat inappropriate. She turned her head and looked at Ning Wuque with a questioning look in her small eyes, which were incredibly clear.

Ning Wuque rubbed his head and gently pinched Wu Feng's cheek:

"I'm not in a hurry. It's not something that can be done in a day or two. I'm just a guest. She's a senior who fought in the Soul Fighting Tournament with me."

"Stop pulling, stop pulling, it's so embarrassing."

Wu Feng looked embarrassed and awkward. He didn't resist, but he verbally signaled to Ning Wuque to let go.

Nearby, several senior female students covered their mouths and chuckled as they watched the interaction between the two. They stopped after a long while. Just before departure, Han Ruoruo checked the information one last time.

After explaining the mission objectives and all the information to everyone, she then revealed the route to the floating ice city:

"This journey is long. The place we are going to is located within the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire, roughly in the Flying Snow Mountain Range in the far north, on the coastline that forms a parallel line with the City of Oak in the Sun and Moon Empire."

Along the way, we will pass through three locations: the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Sunset Forest, and the outpost on the Ridge of the Valley. These are also our only three safe rest stops on the journey.

"So it'll pass through a sect? Well then—"

Wu Feng turned to look at Ning Wuque. If they were going to pass through the sect, he felt he could prepare more food and drink on his person. If he used the soul communication to notify them now, he might be able to get a hot meal.

Ning Wuque understood immediately and extended an invitation to the others:

"Since we'll be passing through the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, why don't I tell the sect to prepare more supplies? It'll be my treat."

"May I?"

"Yes, don't worry, Sister Ruoruo. I can still say a few words in the sect, so we can skip the Sunset Forest and reach Floating Ice City as quickly as possible."

"Well, thank you very much, Brother Wuque. Since you are not an inner court disciple, you cannot exchange your merits for resources in the academy's treasury. This time, I'll take the liberty of giving you a larger share of the rewards from Golden Soul City, just as pocket money."

Han Ruoruo reciprocated, even though the amount of money might not be as valuable as the supplies they had prepared, it was still a token of her goodwill, and she had to show her attitude.

Although she didn't know the specifics of Ning Wuque's situation within the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, she didn't believe his words; they were probably just a humble way of putting it.

Soon, the group finished discussing some matters before setting off. Then, they used their flying soul tools to fly towards the Tianhun Empire, heading towards the far north, bordering the Tianhun and Douling Empires. Most of the border area was adjacent to the Tianhun Empire, a paradise for ice-type soul beasts and also the "sky" of some special sea soul beasts.

The edge of the far north is a large block of solid ice, connected to the permafrost and supported by the ocean, below which lies the cold and deep winter ocean.

Flying towards their destination, the group first replenished their supplies at the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, then traversed the Sunset Forest and headed northwest, passing through the capital city of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Silves.

The former capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City, which was not yet divided, has now become a first-tier city, not far from the address of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The ridge of the secluded valley.

As Ning Wuque passed through this place, he heard the voice of the ancient dragon. Only then did he realize that this was the location of the "Divine Blood Pool" that the ancient dragon had mentioned, and also the ruins of the "Slaughter City" from ten thousand years ago.

Over the millennia, a secluded mountain range has risen here, teeming with evil spirit beasts. The Heavenly Soul Empire needs to station troops here every year to fend off the occasional small beast tides.

The group rested for a day at the garrison here, and by the time they arrived, they had covered two-thirds of their journey.

The following morning, after packing everything up, the group flew the rest of the way in one go and set foot on the snowy border of the far north. "Floating Ice City, we've arrived."

They landed on a low hill. Han Ruoruo pointed to a city standing in Haikou beyond the snowstorm. Her face was covered in frost. They hadn't been very lucky; they had encountered a blizzard on their way there.

Standing behind Han Ruoruo, Ning Wuque did not look at the floating ice city, but instead looked at an iceberg floating on the sea next to the floating ice city.

"Right down there?"

Thinking to himself, Ning Wuque found it hard to believe that the divine test was so close.
