The young dragon tries to conquer the world

　Seeing so many Wind Drift Dragon corpses means there's a lot of Wind Drift Dragon material. If the hunters weren't so naive, they'd probably be scrambling for it. But the hunters know that the two girls' Melaruru will sell the materials they don't want, so they're not in a hurry.

　However, Mary heard some bad news: Lanmei was inquiring about the Everfrost Tundra. According to the director of the Ecological Research Institute, the young girl and Lanmei planned to go to the Everfrost Tundra next. As for the reason, Lanmei did not reveal it. After hearing this news, the Commander-in-Chief immediately summoned the commander of the Third Fleet and went to the Everfrost Tundra by hot air balloon. After all, Baifeng was still there.

　Even though the New World is now in its breeding season, snow still covers the entire permafrost region.

　Located in the distant seas north of the New World, the Everfrost Tundra is a place the New World Elder Dragon Research Team found after tracking the out-of-control Wind Dragon following their Xeno'jiiva hunt. It is a harsh land covered in silvery snow. The research team's outpost in the Everfrost Tundra is called Seliana. The mountain peaks near the outpost are covered in snow all year round. The cold, clear snow melts and turns into streams that flow past the outpost. The hunters have even discovered hot springs near the outpost.

　Bai Feng walked along the mountain path that had become incredibly familiar to her, returning to the entrance of the stronghold. She was wearing armor covered in azure scales, its appearance and shape resembling the elegant attire of a princess. This armor was made using rare scales and shells that could only be obtained from the Teostra, and was known as the Emperor series of armor.

　Besides possessing unparalleled defensive power comparable to that of Elder Dragons, it also has the ability to soothe the terrifying roars of monsters. Such equipment is extremely rare even among Elder Dragon Survey Teams in the New World, and in some small villages, it is a once-in-a-century find. Although the waist armor is a layered, heavy dress that is quite gorgeous among all the armor, Bai Feng has now fully armed himself in order to increase the success rate of hunting in this harsh environment.

　Hanging at Bai Feng's waist was the Berserker Greatsword, crafted using a large amount of precious materials that could only be obtained from a special individual of the Frostfang Barioth. Seeing this greatsword, Bai Feng couldn't help but think of the Berserker Greatsword she had lost before. She loved the first greatsword she forged after arriving in the Everfrost Tundra. After losing it for quite some time, Bai Feng finally forged another one for herself.

　"Oh, Bai Feng! Just got back?"

　"Well, I'm back."

　As the familiar hunter shoveled the thick snow that had accumulated on the houses at the outpost to the ground, he said this to Bai Feng, who was returning. Bai Feng looked up and replied.

　"How was the hunt?"

　"We hunted a lot of meat today too."

　"Really? That's wonderful." Since ingredients that can't be kept overnight have to be hunted nearby, the meat of mammoths and snow deer in the snow mountains is a very important source of protein. The harsh natural environment makes it very difficult for people to travel. There are no large villages around, and the monsters around Starry Sky Stronghold are a level higher in both number and strength. Under these circumstances, the responsibility of hunters is exceptionally heavy.

　"Anyway, come to the market later, goodbye!" Bai Feng waved lightly and walked into the Moonstar base. There was an exit on the east and west sides of the Moonstar base. When Bai Feng came back, he took the west entrance leading to the mountain. As soon as he entered the Moonstar base, Bai Feng saw the familiar Commander-in-Chief.

　"Bai Feng, you always work so hard." The Commander-in-Chief first said words of reward to Bai Feng, who came to settle the spoils of the hunt. "No, the word 'hard work' doesn't exist in the dictionary of hunters of the New World Ancient Dragon Survey Team. By the way, the Commander-in-Chief didn't come to the Seliana base just to tell me how hard I worked, did he?"

　"Hehe, it's certainly not a trivial reason, but this is quite important to you: the Lord of Reincarnation has arrived in the Eternal Frost Frozen Land."

　"What? Wait, when did the Reincarnated One appear? Where is it?"

　"Would you mind if we went to a pub to chat?"

　The tavern in Moonsun Outpost is located on the west side of the outpost, built on the slope of a cliff. It's a small piece of land that seems like a joke given by the gods, but clever hunters have turned this tavern into the most beautiful place in Moonsun Outpost, and also the hunters' favorite place. After pushing open the door, a strong smell of alcohol mixed with food hits you, along with wisps of smoke with the aroma of tobacco, making you feel as if you are lost in the misty mountains.

　The tavern here is self-service. The Commander-in-Chief found a quiet spot and ordered two beers from a waitress wearing a white puff-sleeved top. The waitress quickly filled the glasses with foamy golden liquid and placed them on the bar. The Commander-in-Chief handed the money to the waitress and then took the glasses back to White Wind.

　"Since returning from Sinard Village, you've been investigating the problems left behind by the Fatalis in the Everfrost Tundra and handling the caravan issues, so there's some information you might not have noticed. The Hunter's Guild has officially designated the strange sisters appearing in various regions as Elder Dragons."

　The Commander-in-Chief downed his beer in one gulp, and under Bai Feng's surprised gaze, went back to the bar, tossed down some money, and refilled his beer. "You don't believe me, do you? I don't believe you either, but Mary, you know her, right?"

　"Yes, I know. I teamed up with her when we were fighting the Flame Dragon King. She's a powerful hunter."

　"That makes things easier. Mary took a young hunter as her apprentice, and then they accepted a quest to hunt down a Mudfish Dragon. And guess what happened? A Pink Rathian appeared, and then, bam, the Revenant also appeared, killed the Pink Rathian, and then took the Mudfish Dragon's corpse back to Starry Sky Base."

　Just hearing the Commander-in-Chief say that made Bai Feng feel extremely uneasy. Although he hadn't seen Hui Shi Zhu since returning from Xinaer Village, he had clearly seen the commotion Hui Shi Zhu had caused in the Sky Mountain Confinement Area. After such a long time, Hui Shi Zhu, who possessed the Crimson Emperor Dragon God Jade, would only be stronger than he was in Xinaer Village. Moreover, the person beside Hui Shi Zhu—no, it should be said that ancient dragon—Bai Feng subconsciously felt that it should be Lan Long.

　"If that's the case, then she's most likely the Reincarnation Master. But why would the Reincarnation Master be here? Shouldn't she be staying in the forbidden area all the time?"

　After finishing his beer in one gulp, the Commander-in-Chief did not leave the table, but leaned forward slightly. "To be honest, I don't know why the Lord of Rebirth appeared here. The only information I have is that the ancient dragon that accompanied the Lord of Rebirth investigated the information about the Netherworld Dragon, the Crimson Dragon, and the Lord of Rebirth. Then the two of them came to the Everfrost Tundra. The conversation they had with the director of the Ecological Research Institute was normal, and they didn't reveal any useful information."

　"I will immediately begin investigating the information about the Resurrected One. Since it appeared in the Everfrost Tundra, it must have come for the Crimson Dragon. Perhaps we can see it in the Valley of the Dark Realm. By the way, the one next to the Resurrected One should also be an Ancient Dragon, right? Have we confirmed which Ancient Dragon it is yet?"

　"There is too little information to make a decision, but Steel Dragon is currently the most likely candidate."

　“That might be Lanlong…” Bai Feng wasn’t sure either. After all, it looked too much like Lanlong in appearance and demeanor. Even though Bai Feng had never faced Lanlong, she could sense that it was Lanlong. But without revealing its true form, she couldn’t be sure based on mere guesswork.

　If you were to ask who the young girl most wanted to see upon arriving in the Everfrost Tundra, it would undoubtedly be Granny Cat. As the best cat to take care of hunters in Seliana, even if you were frozen all night while hunting, as long as you drank a bowl of hot soup made by Granny Cat, along with a few pieces of stewed meat and crispy toast, all your fatigue would be instantly wiped away.

　"Meow~" You're here! It's been so long since I've seen you. You must have been hungry while you were out. Come over here, the cream soup is freshly made.

　Although she had seen the little girl once before by chance, and the little girl had changed her clothes and appearance, Granny Cat still recognized her at a glance. Perhaps it was because she was a grandmother, Granny Cat's love for the little girl had not diminished at all. By extension, Granny Cat also showed great affection for Lan Mei, who was by the little girl's side.

　"Meow~" You too, it's quite cold outside, come in and warm up.

　Don't doubt why Granny Cat can express so much with just one word. Melalu is still a long way from achieving that. The Elcuisine chefs at Starry Sky Base, especially the head chef of Lynx Pavilion, all expressed their respect and praise for Granny Cat. This made Melalu very curious about Granny Cat. Upon meeting her, Melalu witnessed the powerful aura of a culinary master emanating from Granny Cat. It was an aura that even Lanmei couldn't get the young girl to sit down and eat, but Granny Cat could!

　Rounding up, that means Granny Cat is the strongest here, the Palico. Naturally, Melalu wouldn't let go of such a senior as Granny Cat, so the three Melalu immediately decided to become her apprentices.

　The little girl toddled over to Grandma Cat and sat down next to her. Grandma Cat took out a large bowl and filled it to the brim with creamy chowder that had been cooking in a big pot. Then, noticing something was missing, she scooped up a spoonful of cheese and poured it on top, then added a few pieces of the previously grilled sausage and placed them aside. And just like that, a perfect dish!

　The cat food is ready.

　The thick layer of cheese locked in the heat of the cream soup. You had to peel back the soft cheese to see the tender carrots, onions, and potatoes stewed inside. Small pieces of pork belly and large chunks of leg meat floated in the rich broth. Because it had been stewing for so long, the broth was so thick that you had to scoop it out with a spoon. Of course, the vegetables also contributed to this.

　The Melalus were very envious of Granny Cat's cooking skills. Their cat tongues couldn't taste the deliciousness at this moment, or they would get burned. However, this was not a problem for the little girl. The little girl picked up a crispy bread and stuck it into the meat soup. Then, instead of pulling it out and eating the bread directly, she wrapped the bread in a layer of cheese on the surface of the meat soup and put it in her mouth. The originally crispy bread was now soft and fluffy, with a rich cheese flavor and a mellow taste of meat soup.

　The little girl's OVO-like expression seemed to have infected Granny Cat, so Granny Cat gave the little girl a few requests to complete. The dish required hunting Ice Fish Dragon, Thunderjaw Dragon, and Barioth Dragon.

　"Meow~" It's breeding season now, and the monsters in the Everfrost Tundra are also getting restless. Hunting those monsters at this time is very difficult, so this dish is hard to make. If I could provide the ingredients from these three monsters, I could try to make this dish.

　Hearing Grandma Cat say that, how could the little girl not be tempted? She wished she could rush out right now and catch the Ice Fish Dragon, Thunderjaw Dragon, and Ice Fang Dragon so Grandma Cat could stew them for her. Hmm, she didn't know how to make them yet; it might not be soup. The little girl knew she was being a bit too hasty, so she quickly shoveled down the thick soup in front of her and rushed out. However, she was in such a hurry that she almost bumped into a woman. As everyone knows, little girls lack common sense, so by the time the woman was about to lecture the little girl, she had already run far away.

　"Hey kid, you need to be more careful next time. Running around like that is very dangerous."

　After seeing off the Commander-in-Chief, Bai Feng kept thinking about what the World Lord wanted to do in the Everfrost Tundra. Since the Starry Sky Outpost also needed a Commander-in-Chief to be stationed there, he did not stay there for too long. Moreover, Bai Feng was the leader of the fifth team of the New World Ancient Dragon Survey Group and the Azure Star that guided the hunters forward. The Commander-in-Chief was completely at ease entrusting the Everfrost Tundra to Bai Feng.

　"Hey, wait, you're not a child..." By the time Bai Feng realized that the child he had almost bumped into was the Reincarnation Master, the little girl had already run far away and even left the stronghold. Without thinking, Bai Feng grabbed a handful of nutrient solutions, whetstones, and antidote fruits and chased after the little girl.

　Volume 1: Chapter 425 - A Fire on the Mountain, the Director Falls in Love with Me

　The vast expanse of white snow covered the mountains near the Moonlit Outpost with a thick layer of white makeup. Thick gray clouds floated in the sky, and the air around them was filled with icy cold. Judging from the current situation, Bai Feng guessed that there would probably be a blizzard near the mountaintop by tonight. Fortunately, the footprints on the snow were very clear, with two rows, one large and one small. Moreover, judging from the direction of the footprints, the young girl and Lan Mei's destination should be the snow mountain, which was a distance that could be reached on the same day if they left the village in the morning.

　Since defeating the Fatalis, White Wind has been investigating the surrounding ecosystem in the Everfrost Tundra. Since the location of the Seliana base was chosen by the Third Fleet, which was the first to land on the coast by hot air balloon, and the other Third Fleet came in pursuit of the Wind Drifter that crossed the sea, the location of the Seliana base was not too close to the inland, but was built near the coastline, considering the distance to communication with the Starry Sky base.

　In the early stages of building the stronghold, the hunter camp was frequently attacked by monsters such as ice jackals and snow lions. In reality, food and clothing were often stolen from the camp, and the snow lions would even attack the hunters. Therefore, for the sake of a peaceful life at the stronghold and safe journeys for the caravans, as the construction of the Seliana stronghold came to an end, the hunters decided that they had to conduct a serious investigation into the number of ice jackals.

　Therefore, the first step for novice hunters assigned to the Everfrost Tundra is to take on tasks such as investigating and hunting Ice Jackals as the first step in their hunter life. Although hunters from the New World or other places may come here in search of materials, they will only put their own goals first. If monsters like Ice Jackals get in their way, they will of course hunt them, but they never think about adjusting their numbers.

　So basically, this task still has to be done by the novice hunters living in Seliana. However, if they encounter any large monsters in the process, and those large monsters have almost all developed strong bodies due to their training in this harsh environment, hunting will become extremely difficult for novice hunters.

　Not far from the Moonlit Outpost, Bai Feng saw a huge spring at the foot of the mountain. Not only herbivores like snow deer and Bobo used it as their water source, but also bullosaurs and thunderjaw dragons often visited it. When they came here, they would often make a mess of the hot spring by fighting and vying for territory. After all, such a natural hot spring is beneficial to any creature.

　白风

　I especially love the permafrost. As for Bai Feng's favorite spot, since it's still daytime, we won't have a chance to see it yet. But after nightfall, a magnificent aurora will appear in the night sky here. Just being there, the crystal-clear scenery of the snow-capped mountains will give you a unique feeling. Nature is beautiful, and that's why I became a hunter—at least that's what Bai Feng thinks.

　The little girl and Lan Mei's footprints disappeared in front of a cave. Bai Feng remembered this cave; she often used it when traveling to and from the mountaintop. However, the only drawback of this cave was that it was too cold inside. There was severe frost everywhere in the cave, and without hot drinks, one's stamina would drop to zero in an instant. The cave ran from the entrance located in the plains into the mountain. Although it was possible to climb from the outside of the mountain, there was a hall-like area inside the cave where large monsters might rest and heal their wounds, so one had to be careful.

　However, since the young girl and Lan Mei had come here, it meant that their target was the Ice Fang Dragon. Because he had come out in such a hurry, Bai Feng didn't know why the young girl and Lan Mei were looking for the Ice Fang Dragon. But Bai Feng didn't have time to think about it. He stood outside the cave and listened quietly to the sounds inside. The cave was very quiet. Bai Feng guessed that the Lord of the World might not have found the Ice Fang Dragon yet, and there was also a very small possibility that the Lord of the World had already killed the Ice Fang Dragon. Bai Feng didn't think too much about it. He took out a flashbang, loaded it onto the projectile, placed the Dispel Fruit in the closest position to his hand, and tiptoed inside.

　As it turned out, Bai Feng was wrong. A thin layer of dark purple scales covered the cave floor, which Bai Feng immediately recognized as the Mad Dragon Virus. She was very familiar with it. On the other side of the cave, she could see deep claw marks, broken ice, and the heavy fangs of the Ice Fang Dragon covered by the Mad Dragon Virus. A deep pit in the center of the cave was constantly spewing water vapor containing ice fragments, which continuously blew the Mad Dragon Virus in the surrounding area. Bai Feng was very familiar with the traces on the ground. Combining the clues, Bai Feng quickly deduced what had happened.

　With overwhelming force, the Lord of the World trampled the Ice Fang Dragon to the ground and snapped its neck.

　The Ice Fang Dragon's teeth are the most obvious evidence, and the fight between the two dragons was definitely very short, as can be seen from the thin layer of Mad Dragon Virus on the ground. However, this was expected, as that was the Returning World Lord. Bai Feng couldn't imagine who could defeat it at this time. Oh, there was one, the one he encountered in Void Dark City. Hmm, Bai Feng thought it was best if the two of them didn't fight. The hunters were already struggling to deal with just one of them, let alone both.

　However, one can't leave the wool unharvested. After collecting the remaining barbs and fangs of the Barioth Dragon from the ground and putting them into his item bag, Bai Feng left the cave satisfied. Just outside the cave lay a snow-covered mountain. Part of the mountain seemed to have been carved away, where thick snow had accumulated. Deep within the snowfield were cliffs, and a single misstep could lead to a fatal fall. Therefore, the beginner's hunting guide for the Everfrost Reach emphasized the importance of always being aware of one's location when confronting monsters.

　However, even so, the area is spacious enough to move around in.

　There was no sign of the Reincarnated Lord anywhere. Only timid herbivorous snow deer gathered in groups, and no trace of the Reincarnated Lord could be detected. Bai Feng looked around. There were three snowfields in total: the eastern snowfield where he was now, the western snowfield where the ruins of the camp were located, and the northern snowfield after crossing a snow hill. A cold wind mixed with ice chips blew, but the cold was only felt for a moment. Bai Feng decided to follow the direction of the wind and detour to the north.

　When Bai Feng arrived at the north side, a sea of ​​clouds unfolded before his eyes. Only then did Bai Feng realize that today was a rare sunny day. Although there would still be some snow, the view was superb. The distant mountains peeked out from the sea of ​​clouds. The scenery below was obscured by the thick clouds, so his beauty could not be seen.

　"Woo~"

　A hissing sound like a steam train echoed across the silent snowfield. No one was found there; only a small horde of monsters. These were toothed beasts with white fur that blended into the snowfield, very similar to the little peach-furred beasts Bai Feng had heard of in the dense forest. Only their faces, not covered by fur, revealed a red hue. These distinctively colored monsters always moved in groups; they were almost never seen acting alone. When they encountered enemies or prey, they would attack en masse, using terrifying team tactics to catch up with their prey in an instant.

　In the snowy mountains, the harsh environment and powerful monsters present a formidable challenge for hunters. Of course, for Bai Feng, these were insignificant opponents. But what monster was howling? Bai Feng felt the sound was familiar. She quickly noticed a black dot on the snowfield, and the three snow lions were hiding from that dot. The small snow lion's size was more human-like than that of a herbivorous dragon, and its forelegs had a shape very similar to a human wrist. Its agile body also allowed it to throw snowballs.

　Soon, Bai Feng saw the black dot grow larger, and then an ice fish dragon leaped out of the snow, biting the head of a small snow lion and quickly plunging back into the snow. The blood from its wound quickly stained the patch of snow where the ice fish dragon had burrowed red. The remaining two...

　The little snow lion immediately stopped running away, aimed at the ice fish dragon's dorsal fin exposed on the snow, and started throwing snowballs.

　The Ice Fish Dragon calmly dodged the snowball attack, threw the almost frozen little snow lion out from under the snow, and then pounced on the little snow lion in front of it with its tail fin. The startled little snow lion forgot to dodge for a moment, and taking advantage of this opportunity, the Ice Fish Dragon bit the little snow lion closest to it, then used its Iron Mountain Lean to ram another little snow lion, and then whipped it with its tail, sending it flying and crashing into the bare rocks, where it lost its life.

　As Bai Feng brushed the snow off his clothes, he stood up and tightened his collar. He felt a little regretful that he hadn't found Hui Shi Zhu, but now he should call the Winged Dragon to go to the next place. Suddenly, Bai Feng sensed something and looked up at the sky with a tense expression. What came into Bai Feng's view was a white-gold figure, Hui Shi Zhu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. Hui Shi Zhu was rapidly approaching the Ice Fish Dragon as if gliding across a snowfield, stirring up a long blizzard behind it.

　Then, with a heavy thud, it landed on the snowfield. The first thing that caught Bai Feng's eye was the dazzling white-gold color, as pure as the most precious gemstone. The sharp claws on its limbs and wings shimmered with a bright purple, standing out vividly against the snowfield. What surprised Bai Feng the most was the size of the World Lord. Unlike when he saw it in Xinard Village, the World Lord's body had grown much larger, and it even looked fatter.

　Besides the appearance that Heavenly Returning Dragons also possess, the most distinctive feature of the Returning Lord is her crown-like horns, which are completely different from ordinary Heavenly Returning Dragons. The Returning Lord's reddish-brown dragon horns curve upwards and split into more horns as they grow. Even the guild is not very clear about the detailed reason for this. Perhaps it is because of the Crimson Emperor Dragon God Jade, just like those sword-blade scales.

　The Ice Fish Dragon, which was gnawing on the little snow lion, was caught off guard when it was snatched into the mouth of the Reincarnation Lord. In an instant, the Ice Fish Dragon felt itself flying into the air and fell into an unprecedented state of confusion. However, the increasingly heavy pressure on its body and the pain of its skin being pierced quickly pulled the Ice Fish Dragon out of its confusion. It then struggled desperately like a salted fish, its nimble tail almost touching the Reincarnation Lord's cheek. The Reincarnation Lord raised its wing claws and firmly held the Ice Fish Dragon in place before severing its trachea in one bite.

　The meat of the Ice Fish Dragon is delicious, but none of the other parts can be eaten, especially its blood. If the blood of the Wind Dragon is like a sugary drink with ice, then the blood of the Ice Fish Dragon is like kerosene mixed with mud. After the Ice Fish Dragon's blood stopped flowing, Hui Shi Zhu grabbed it and flew to the other side of the mountain. Poor Bai Feng had only climbed halfway up the mountain when she saw Hui Shi Zhu go to the other side. She hesitated for a moment and did not fire a flashbang, so she had to climb back up to the top of the mountain.

　The young girl's mission this time was to catch Ice Fish Dragon, Thunderjaw Dragon, and Ice Fang Dragon to make a super land, sea, and air dish. So she and Lan Mei didn't plan to bring Mela Lu along. So far, the young girl has caught Ice Fang Dragon and Ice Fish Dragon, but she hasn't found Thunderjaw Dragon along the way. However, the young girl isn't in a hurry. As they say, anticipation is the best seasoning for good food. Before eating the super land, sea, and air dish, the young girl doesn't mind eating something else first.

　Under normal circumstances, three Ice Fish Dragons are enough to feed a young girl, one and a half Anjanathus or two Bariothosaurus can also feed her, but if it were an animal like a Bobo, it would take about ten to satisfy the young girl. As for Snow Deer, it should be able to fill the young girl's stomach before they are all eaten.

　Since Mela wasn't with them, the young girl and Lan Mei had to grill the Polnareff meat themselves. Grilling meat wasn't difficult, even for the young girl. She skillfully drew her Berserker and chopped it down on Polnareff's head, removing the internal organs and setting aside the parts that were easy to clean and grill. As for the wood, the young girl could easily knock down a tree as thick as a person's embrace with one of her tails, and there was no shortage of trees in the Everfrost Tundra, so the barbecue pit was quickly set up.

　After igniting the flames with the magic she learned from Frilian, the little girl sat on a bench in the abandoned hunter's camp, swinging her little feet and waiting for the flames to go out. Because she hadn't skinned the animals, she had placed them directly on the wood to roast, which caused a huge plume of smoke to rise from the abandoned hunter's camp. This happened to attract White Wind, who couldn't find any trace of the Wanderer. White Wind's first reaction upon seeing the smoke was that a wildfire had broken out, but then he thought that there were no monsters in the Everfrost Tundra that could breathe fire.

　Then there's only one possibility: someone visited the abandoned camp. The hunters all know that the camp is abandoned and there's no way to get supplies there. So, the only one who could be in that camp is probably the Reincarnated One, specifically in human form.

　Moreover, no hunter who has passed the normal examination to enter the Elder Dragon Investigation Team could create such a commotion. Who else could it be but the Returning Lord?

　Volume 1: 426 - The White Wind Who Was Outsmarted

　If we're talking about the easiest seasoning to obtain in the Everfrost Tundra, it has to be chili peppers. You can eat them raw or grilled, and you can even make a delicious dipping sauce with just salt that can turn barely palatable grilled meat into mouthwatering meat. Of course, if you're willing to spend some time finding Hundred Suns Grass, Shallots, and Ghost Onions to add, the dipping sauce will taste even more perfect. You can even add Frostbite Tomatoes or other ingredients to create a flavor that suits your taste. Every hunter living in the Everfrost Tundra has their own favorite combination, and coincidentally, the young girl is also the kind of person who will go to great lengths for good food.

　As long as she remembers the taste, the young girl can find what she wants with perfect accuracy.

　Chop the chili peppers, shallots, and onions, sprinkle with salt, and finally pour in barbecue sauce and Star Brandy and mix well. This special dipping sauce is now ready. The little girl couldn't wait to grab the still-hot grilled pork, haphazardly roll it in the dipping sauce, and stuff it into her mouth, making loud chewing and swallowing noises. Originally, the grilled meat was supposed to be wrapped in basil before eating, but the little girl's tolerance for vegetables was limited to things like carrots and onions in stewed meat. She wouldn't be happy to be forced to eat green leaves so openly.

　Of course, without Melalu's help, the Bobo meat processed by the young girl and Lanmei still had a fishy and sour taste that was difficult to remove from the Bobo meat itself. However, this fishy and sour taste was almost undetectable under the aroma of burning pine branches, the salty and fragrant taste of barbecue sauce, the rich aroma of Star Brandy, and the mellow aroma of the oil bursting in the mouth. Moreover, since it was roasted directly on the wood, the outer skin on the side closest to the wood was roasted to an extremely crispy texture, while the fur on the other side was burned so much that it fell off with a light tap, revealing the tender white meat inside.

　The young girl happily chewed on the grilled meat, but she couldn't quite understand why she had picked the pile of Hundred-Sun Grass leaves. However, eating the meat was the most important thing right now, so she didn't think much of it. Compared to the young girl's dipping sauce, Lan's was much simpler. She couldn't eat spicy food, and even with onions and leeks, she couldn't eat too much. Lan broke the onions into suitable sizes and placed them on the grilled meat, then wrapped them in Hundred-Sun Grass leaves. This was Lan's way of eating, and also the most common way. In fact, Hundred-Sun Grass leaves not only cut through the greasiness but also enhanced the flavor of the grilled meat.

　The mountain of grilled boba meat was disappearing steadily into the little girl's mouth. Soon, the dipping sauce in front of her was almost gone. Under the little girl's big, watery eyes, Lanmei had no choice but to give in and prepare the dipping sauce for her herself. Lanmei, who was afraid of spicy food, could only try her best to tilt her head back to avoid being scalded by the smell of the onions and chilies while chopping them. But for some reason, at that moment, Lanmei suddenly understood the little girl's purpose in coming to the New World.

　It's for energy, I suppose.

　Lanmei felt she should have thought of this sooner. Upon closer reflection, the intervals between the young girl's molting were indeed getting longer and longer. It had been at least two years since the last molt, but the interval between the last molting was less than a year. According to the young girl's condition, in addition to eating to obtain energy, absorbing ley line energy was also a daily task for her. However, considering that Geno Shiva had spent countless hours and still hadn't been able to be safely born, Lanmei could understand the young girl's actions. The young girl must have learned something in the ley lines when she came to the New World. Right, that Geno Shiva that disappeared deep in the ley lines, was it to absorb that energy?

　But after such a long time, Geno Shiva's body and energy have probably already completely merged with the ley lines. If it were just about absorbing ley line energy, the young girl could absorb it anywhere in the New World, or even in the Old World. But the young girl didn't rush to absorb ley line energy when she was in the Old World. So it must be Sora Magdaros. The information Geno Shiva left her was actually the location of Sora Magdaros.

　Lanmei felt she understood everything, and before she knew it, she had finished preparing the chili peppers and ghost onions. Just as she picked up the spicy mixture in front of her and put it into a bowl, she suddenly noticed an upright creature approaching. Instinctively, Lanmei reached out to lift the tent flap to see what it was, but instead of touching the cold tent, her hands touched something soft and warm, somewhat like the head of an upright creature. Soon, Lanmei heard a mournful sound echo throughout the snowfield.

　“Aa ...

　Bai Feng rolled around on the ground in agony, grabbing snowflakes and rubbing her eyes frantically. Realizing this wasn't working, she immediately unplugged her water bag and rinsed her eyes. Even so, the pain in her face didn't subside. She had no choice but to grab more snowflakes and smear them directly on her eyes. The intense stinging and pain radiating from her eyeballs lessened considerably, but the warm tears quickly melted the snowflakes in her hands. Bai Feng had to discard them, grab a handful of snowflakes, smear them on her eyes, and rub them back and forth.

　After repeating this process more than ten times, Bai Feng finally dared to put down the snowball in her hand and began to try to open her eyes. However, Bai Feng's eyes were already so swollen that she couldn't open them, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. Coupled with the inexplicable attack, the heartbroken Bai Feng shed even more tears. Only then did she have time to recall what had just happened.

　The other party didn't use much force, and judging from the smell, they were probably handling chili peppers and onions. They were about to open the tent and I was about to crawl in when the peppers hit my eyes. But the stimulation was much more intense than being hit by a flashbang.

　Fortunately, this abandoned camp was built on a snowfield and would not cause an avalanche. The howl of the white wind just now only shook the snow off the nearby pine trees. The little girl, who heard the shout, turned her head curiously to see what kind of creature made such a howl. It turned out to be the upright creature she had seen before. She had seen the white wind in the New World where she was born and in the village of Xinard where she molted, so she still had some impression of her. The little girl stood next to Lan Mei with the roasted Bobo meat in her hands, wondering what Lan Mei had done to make the upright creature turn like this.

　Lanmei looked at her palms, unsure of what to do. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her lips. She opened her arms to hug the little girl, but the little girl clearly noticed what Lanmei was about to do. She raised her tail and wrapped it around Lanmei's legs. Lanmei was already unsteady, and now that she was trapped by the little girl, she could hardly stand. In desperation, Lanmei had no choice but to twist her waist and fall to the side. Just as Lanmei spread her arms to meet the ground, Bai Feng happened to walk over.

　"boom!"

　"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

　This time, the screams were noticeably shorter than the last, indicating that Bai Feng had become accustomed to the stimulation of the ghost onions and chili peppers. This time, Bai Feng did not struggle; instead, he decisively grabbed two clumps of snow and rubbed his eyes repeatedly, hissing as he gasped for air. However, it took Bai Feng quite a while to recover from the pain. He then took out the secret medicine and nutrient solution G and ate them. Especially after drinking nutrient solution G, Bai Feng felt that the pain in his eyes immediately lessened considerably, and at least he could open his eyes and see clearly what was in front of him without any problem.

　Bai Feng, whose vision had just returned, felt his eyes were still a little blurry when he looked at people, but a hunter's constitution is unreasonable, and Bai Feng quickly recognized the two people in front of him as the little girl and Lan Mei. After first noticing the campfire, Bai Feng deduced that it was most likely these two clueless dragons who had caused this commotion. In the center of the abandoned camp was a roaring campfire, and next to it was a small mountain of bones. Judging from their size, shape, and length, they should be the foreleg bones of the Bobo. The little girl, seeing that he hadn't been there for a while, sat back down in front of a large basin and quickly ate the roasted meat. It seemed that the little girl was the one who had killed these Bobo.

　When Lanmei saw that the upright creature that had come was Baifeng, she lost interest. However, she still needed to remove the enchantment from her hands. She grabbed a handful of snow to wipe away the pungent smell from her hands, then sniffed them to make sure the smell was gone before sitting back down next to the little girl. Baifeng knew this was a good opportunity. At least she hadn't offended the little girl and Lanmei while approaching them. Otherwise, if Huishizhu suddenly appeared, she would have been humiliated and sent home in a cat cart. However, she was also a little curious whether the little girl was Huishizhu's clone or whether the little girl was Huishizhu herself.

　Bai Feng thought quickly, and Lan Mei, who had attacked his eyes, hadn't actually done anything wrong; it was just too coincidental. For hunters on a hunting mission, after eating, they would dig a hole, bury the remaining bones and trash, and then cover it with soil. If they didn't, monsters or giant insects might follow the scent to find the hunters' camp, which would be dangerous. Moreover, the commander-in-chief had also asked Bai Feng to investigate the young girl and Lan Mei's motives.

　So now it was time for Bai Feng to unleash her shameless charm. Besides, this was an abandoned hunter camp, so it wouldn't be a problem for her to stay here for a while. With that in mind, Bai Feng casually sat down by the fire and skillfully took out a basic hunter's cooking tool, a barbecue grill, from her tool bag. Having spent the whole day in the snowfield, Bai Feng was already a bit tired and needed to rest, warm up, and replenish her energy. Moreover, she had already found her target, and in this warm environment, Bai Feng felt it was the perfect opportunity to build rapport.

　Bai Feng took out several pieces of salted bone-in meat from his prop bag, skewered them on the swivel of the grill, adjusted the distance from the flames, and then held the swivel to make the meat spin above the flames. Then, the little girl and Lan Mei looked at Bai Feng in shock. As for the reason...

　Da da da! La la la! Da da da!

　I'm a barbecue expert, and I'm really good at grilling meat!

　Da la la! Da la la!

　It's done grilling! The grilling time was just right!

　The surface of the meat looks crispy and delicious, and the inside must be full of juicy goodness!

　Bai Feng had already noticed the look in You Nu and Lan Mei's eyes, so he patiently explained to them, "This is a barbecue song. If you rotate the barbecue according to the melody of the song while grilling, you can ensure that the barbecue tastes the best. Would you like to try some?" Bai Feng sincerely handed the freshly grilled meat to You Nu and Lan Mei. You Nu nodded and unceremoniously grabbed the barbecue from Bai Feng's hand and began to chew it heartily. Although You Nu didn't say anything, her mouth was covered with grease. However, judging from You Nu's appearance, she seemed to be quite satisfied with the barbecue itself.

　Seeing the expression on the little girl's face, Bai Feng wasn't so heartbroken by Lan Mei's polite refusal. Satisfied, he returned to the grill and continued singing his barbecue song. After grilling the remaining three pieces of meat, he casually broke off a leaf from one of the ferns outside.

　After placing the meat on the large leaves, Bai Feng took out the large dagger that every hunter carries to dismember monsters. He used it to slowly cut the meat into small pieces and put them into his mouth. Bai Feng's armor did not cover his face, so he did not need to take off his head armor while eating.

　"What are you doing here in the Everfrost Tundra? You don't look like hunters."

　The little girl tore off a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth, not reacting to Bai Feng's words. Bai Feng, however, seemed unconcerned. Instead, he tiptoed over to the little girl and examined the food in front of her. But the little girl immediately turned to the side to block the meat beside her after noticing Bai Feng's actions. Although she had eaten the meat Bai Feng had offered, it didn't mean she would let Bai Feng eat her meat. "Oh dear, I'm already full. So you like spicy food. Oh, in that case, wait a minute."

　Bai Feng then took out the Emperor Truffles and Spirit Mushrooms he had gathered from his prop bag, chopped them into pieces, poured butter into a pot, sautéed them until fragrant, then added milk and bouillon cubes. Soon, a pot of fragrant cream soup was ready. The little girl didn't know about bouillon cubes, since Melalu had always made them for her. Bai Feng pushed the soup to the little girl's side, then walked back to his original spot and sat down. Only then did the little girl scoop up some cream soup and taste it.
