Although life here isn't very convenient, it has given her a unique experience.
“Yes, we’re heading straight to Kunlun. Didn’t Big Gold Tooth say that Hu Bayi and the others have been on their way for half a month? They should be in Kunlun Mountain by now. We’ll arrive just in time,” Zhao Xuan said, withdrawing his gaze.
In fact, Zhao Xuan had brought Li Yunjie to the capital two days ago.
After spending two days sightseeing in the capital, Zhao Xuan went to find Da Jinya to inquire about the whereabouts of Hu Bayi and his two companions.
Big Gold Tooth wasn't originally planning to say anything, but upon hearing his name, he blurted out everything.
It turned out that after Hu Bayi and his two companions returned from the Loess Plateau, they rested for a few days before heading to the Insect Valley in Yunnan.
More than half a month later, he returned from the Insect Valley in Yunnan, rested for a few days, and then took the Mist Dust Pearl to Kunlun Mountain.
About half a month has passed now.
"Steel Crow, let's go." With that thought, Zhao Xuan patted the Steel Crow on the back and said.
"Caw!!" The Steel-Armored Raven let out a long howl, its wings flapped and it became a blur, leaving a deep white mark on the sky before turning into a black dot.
Zhao Xuan took a deep look at the city below before looking away.
.........
Meanwhile, on the mountainside of Kunlun Mountain.
Hu Bayi, Wang Pangzi, and Shirley Yang, along with three men and two women, were running wildly ahead.
Behind them, a large pack of wolves was closing in.
A series of wolf howls continuously reached everyone's ears.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Awooooo!!"
Wang Pangzi kept looking back and shouting, "Why are those damn things chasing us like that?!"
At this moment, Fatty Wang especially missed the days when Zhao Xuan was around.
Since Zhao Xuan left, Fatty Wang has felt incredibly unlucky. In the Yunnan Insect Valley, he was constantly being chased by giant snakes or insects.
And most importantly, they didn't get a single hair, only the Mist Dust Bead.
Now he's being chased by wolves again, how unlucky!
"Stop talking nonsense and shoot!" Hu Bayi shouted loudly after hearing Wang Pangzi's somewhat complaining words.
"Bang Bang Bang!!!"
"Bang bang bang!!"
At the same time, gunshots rang out continuously.
Many wolves were shot and fell, but it had no effect whatsoever. Under the command of the wolf king, the wolves continued to chase after Hu Bayi and his group.
"Old Hu, this isn't working. We won't escape unless we kill the wolf king," Shirley Yang shouted anxiously as the wolf pack drew closer.
Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in Hu Bayi's eyes, and he shouted, "Fatty!! You protect me, I'll go kill the Wolf King!"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang immediately objected, saying, "Old Hu!! Are you crazy! You can't go!!"
Keep in mind that the wolf king is behind the pack. To kill the wolf king, (Manuo Zhao) would have to weave through the encirclement of more than twenty wolves.
Given Hu Bayi's condition, he would probably be torn to pieces by the wolves.
"Ah!!!" Just then, a scream reached Hu Bayi and his companions' ears, causing them to turn around and see that one of Uncle Ming's bodyguards had been pounced on by a wolf.
Then he was frantically torn apart by several wolves, letting out screams of agony.
Crimson blood stained a patch of white snow.
"Fatty, come with me!" Seeing this, Hu Bayi didn't care about anything else and quickly turned around and rushed forward with his gun in hand.
Seeing this, Fatty Wang could only grit his teeth and follow.
Shirley Yang followed along; they were a trio of tomb raiders, how could she be left out?
Moreover, Shirley Yang is quite skilled.

Chapter 204 Snake God! !
"Cough cough cough!! Hurry up, our destination is just ahead." Several hours later, Hu Bayi and his two companions, covered in wounds, arrived at their destination, Kunlun Divine Palace, with Mingxiang and Axiang.
After Hu Bayi and his two companions defeated the wolf king, they escaped the wolf pack.
Later, at the Wind-Eroded Lake, the group encountered a battle between the White-Bearded Fish and the Striped Dragon, and also encountered strange monsters such as the Snow Maitreya, the Golden-bodied Mummy of the Snow Mountain, the Mushroom Forest, the Earth Guanyin, and the Fire Lizard.
However, they all arrived at the Kunlun Divine Palace safely.
However, although they arrived at the Kunlun Divine Palace, they were all covered in wounds.
Ah Xiang even lost a hand.
The ice cave deep in the Kunlun Mountains was bitterly cold, and Hu Bayi staggered forward, supporting himself against the rock wall.
Where the flashlight beam swept, the icicles refracted a ghostly blue light, making the tired faces of the group look like ghosts.
"Look!" Fatty Wang suddenly exclaimed, pointing ahead. At the end of the ice cave, nine bronze steps appeared, each engraved with Tantric Sanskrit. At the top of the steps hung a crystal corpse, its body gleaming. Two egg-sized rubies were inlaid in the eyes of the corpse, gleaming with an eerie blood-red light in the darkness.
Shirley Yang suddenly grabbed Hu Bayi's wrist: "Something's not right. The Sanskrit is carved backwards." Her fingertips traced the inverted lotus pattern on the side of the steps. "This is the Reincarnation Sect's heaven-defying burial method. They're performing a ritual—"
"Whoosh!!"
Before he could finish speaking, the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air came from behind him. Hu Bayen instinctively rolled to the side, and a Tibetan knife grazed his neck and embedded itself in the ice wall.
Turning around, I saw Ah Xiang standing three zhang away, with black mist emanating from her severed wrist. The mist condensed into countless fine incantations in the air.
Uncle Ming coughed up blood, staring in disbelief at the sharp blade that had pierced his chest.
"Ah Xiang, you..." Uncle Ming was about to speak when he suddenly clutched his throat and knelt down, his neck veins bulging as if he were being strangled by an invisible rope.
A strange smile appeared on Ah Xiang's pale face, and her pupils turned into vertical snake eyes: "The Samsara Sect has waited for a thousand years, and finally got the Ghost Cave bloodline."
"Boom!"
The ice cave suddenly trembled violently, and the rubies in the crystal corpse's eyes shot out blood-red light.
Hu Bayi then realized that what was flowing from Ah Xiang's severed wrist was not blood at all, but viscous black liquid. The black liquid meandered up the steps, and the moment it touched the crystal corpse, the entire altar resounded with the wails of thousands of vengeful ghosts.
"Ahhhhh!!"
"She's the witch from the murals in the tomb of the King of Xian!" Shirley Yang suddenly remembered the relief she had seen at the Reincarnation Temple. "The Reincarnation Sect used a secret reincarnation technique to have her parasitize Ah Xiang's body!"
Ah Xiang's body suddenly swelled, revealing skin covered in runes beneath her tattered sleeves. With a wave of her hand, ice shards transformed into sharp arrows and attacked.
"Clang!!" Fatty Wang swung his entrenching tool to block, but the steel blade was pierced through by the ice arrow.
Hu Bayi took out a black donkey hoof and threw it at the bronze cauldron in the center of the altar. The patterns on the cauldron suddenly lit up with a blue light, forcing the black mist back three feet.
"Kan position! Zhen position!" Shirley Yang used the Vajra Umbrella to protect everyone. Upon hearing the sound, Hu Bayi shot two Tomb Raider Talismans towards both sides of the altar.
The moment the talisman touched the ice wall, the ruby in the crystal corpse's eye suddenly shattered, and a huge serpentine black shadow emerged from the blood mist.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hu Bayi used his grappling hook to grab the handle of the bronze cauldron, while Fatty Wang swung his assault rifle and fired three shots at the cauldron.
The patina of a thousand years fell away, revealing a star map carved on the inner wall—it was actually a Bagua diagram! Shirley Yang immediately stuffed the black donkey hoof into the Yin Eye of the Bagua, and with a click, the sound of a mechanism turning came from the bottom of the altar.
Ah Xiang let out an inhuman roar, and black mist condensed into a giant hand that grabbed at everyone.
Uncle Ming, whether in a final burst of lucidity or something else, suddenly lunged forward and grabbed Ah Xiang's legs. In the instant the black mist pierced his chest, he pulled out a detonator from his pocket and lit the fuse.
"Run!" Amidst the flying blood and flesh, Hu Bayi dragged Shirley Yang down the steps, followed by the deafening crash of collapsing ice.
"Boom!!!"
Amidst the roar of the ice breaking apart, the serpentine black shadow solidified into a physical form.
The jagged bone spurs pierced through the black mist, and the two scarlet vertical pupils were like blood moons hanging from the top of the ice cave.
"Old Hu! Are you alright?" The fat man climbed out of the snowdrift and shouted loudly as he looked in the direction of Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang.
"We're fine."
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang also got up.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ah Xiang's body undergoing a strange transformation. Scale-like runes appeared on her skin, and the black water gushing from her severed wrist condensed into eight snake tails in mid-air.
"Old Hu, what should we do?" Not only Hu Bayi saw it, but Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang also saw it.
"Adapt to the situation," Hu Bayi said solemnly upon hearing this.
They have no way out now, because the road ahead has been cut off.
"Boom!"
Just then, the dome of the ice cave suddenly collapsed, and a serpentine black shadow carrying millennia of frost poured down.
The moment the jagged bone spikes tore through the black mist, Hu Bayi saw that the creature's scales were actually made up of countless pained human faces—each face was twisting and roaring, with blood-red ice crystals embedded in its eye sockets.
As the snake's head drooped, it created a foul-smelling hurricane. The viscous fluid flowing from its two fangs dripped onto the ice, instantly corroding deep, charred holes.
"This is... Xiang Liu, right?!" Fatty Wang staggered backward upon seeing this, as rifle bullets struck the snake's neck and reverse scales, scattering blue flames.
The monster's vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and wherever its eight snake tails swept, the millennia-old ice shattered into dust like rotten soil.
The moment Shirley Yang raised the wolf-eye flashlight, the beam illuminated the snake's belly—beneath the translucent scales lay countless infant carcasses, their bluish-purple little hands frantically scratching at the inside of the scales.
However, the Snake God did not attack Hu Bayi and his companions. Instead, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Give me back my things, and I can let you leave this place."
Originally, Hu Bayi and his two companions were prepared to die here today, but these words gave them a glimmer of hope.
"Old Hu, what should we do?" Fatty Wang looked at Hu Bayi again.
Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi looked at Shirley Yang.
He wanted to hear what Shirley Yang had to say.
Hu Bayi doesn't know what to do now.
After all, if the monster in front of them didn't keep its promise, they would really be doomed.
But if they don't give it to them, the monster will attack them. What should they do then?
Shirley Yang's expression changed upon hearing this.
Because she didn't know what to do either?
She looked up at the serpent god, its mountain-like body, its ferocious serpent head, and its eight twisted serpent tails sending chills down her spine.
Such a monster really made Shirley Yang unsure of what to do.

Chapter 205 Fierce Battle!!
"Snap!!! Snap!!"
At that critical moment, a loud crash of ice shattering suddenly came from above.
"Boom!!" Immediately afterwards, the entire cave shattered.
"Steel-armored Raven, Steel Wings!"
Then, a male voice pierced through the blizzard, and a giant black bird broke through the ice and swooped down.
Its wings gleamed with a cold metallic light, and fine ice crystals were even condensed at the tips. The Steel-Armored Raven's steel wings struck Xiang Liu's Achilles' heel with pinpoint accuracy, and the millennia-old ice exploded into a sky full of icy mist in the shockwave.
"This is..." Fatty Wang's mouth dropped open as he saw the boy on the Steel-Armored Raven's back. "Master Zhao!!"
At this moment, Fatty Wang's anxious heart finally settled down.
Seeing this, Hu Bayi, Shirley, and Ke Yang were relieved.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!" Zhao Xuan, on the back of the Steel-Armored Raven, instantly launched three wave missiles.
"Boom!!!"
Three wave missiles, like cannonballs, bombarded the Serpent God.
"Articuno!" Zhao Xuan then threw out Articuno's Poké Ball.
A red light flashed, and Articuno appeared on the battlefield.
