But Sejuani didn't notice that while she was talking as if it was none of her business, Glenna beside her lowered her head, and even Heilno beside her fell silent.
In this hushed silence, Sejuani, who had been drinking her soup peacefully, paused for a moment before looking up and saying in disbelief, "Could Fane have said that?"
No one answered Sejuani, only Ashe beside her smiled at her somewhat reluctantly.
"I am indeed researching this aspect."
After hesitating for a moment, Glenna rubbed her brow and said, "But this is too much of a coincidence. I just got some valuable clues and you came to me... Although you are Sejuani's first blood ally, this matter is of great importance. I can't jump to conclusions easily..."
"This is not a matter of conclusion or not!" Haiernuo Bengbu said nearby.
Looking at the people in front of him, he said seriously: "Winter is over, and now is the crucial summer! What we should do now is to farm, hunt, and plunder. Instead of taking risks for a vague myth!"
As he spoke, Heilno came in front of Glenna. He grabbed Glenna's arm and shook it vigorously, saying, "Glenna looked helpless."
"Wake up, sister! Without enough food, we won't be able to survive the next winter! Now that the Hearthborn and Iceborn warriors are well fed and eager to fight, we should take advantage of this opportunity to farm and hunt. This way, we can better survive the next winter!"
"Stop it, stop it." After hearing Heilno's words, Glenna waved her hand helplessly and said, "This is the fourth time you've mentioned something like this this week... My opinion is obvious, isn't it? Don't try to interrupt my thoughts with words. If you really want to, use your sword."
After hearing Glenna's words, a look of despair appeared on Heilno's face.
As Glenna's sister, Heilno knew exactly how powerful Glenna was. Even if Glenna had given him one hand, she would still have the upper hand, let alone a fair 1v1 battle between two women.
Glenna, however, paid no attention to Heilnor's despair. She simply looked at Faan with interest and said, "So, you think I want to obtain Avarosa's treasure? To inherit Avarosa's will?"
"Ah? Still trying? Come on, I know you know that the reincarnation of Avarosa isn't you, but Ashe." Faan waved his hand and said, "There's no need to deliberately lie to me."
After hearing what Fane said, Glenna narrowed her eyes again.
This time, Heilno and Ashe on the side also opened their mouths in surprise.
Especially Helno—she had always believed that her sister had been blinded by the legend and wanted to obtain the legendary legacy and dominate Freljord. And now...
It’s actually for Ashe?
"Me?" Ashe pointed at herself and said, "I'm the reincarnation of Avarosa? No, no, no! I can't even fully master the True Ice weapons right now!"
Ashe quickly waved her hand and said, "A few days ago, my mother handed me a True Icy Dagger. I held it for less than three minutes before I couldn't stand the cold and had to let it go. Of course, I believe Sejuani must be the reincarnation of Serilda! Because I saw her use these True Icy weapons!"
"Those are two different things."
Faan waved his hand, glanced at Ashe and said, "You'll understand everything once you get Avarosa's Holy Bow. But there's one thing you need to pay attention to."
"Ok?"
"The power of the Holy Bow will turn your hair silver-white like ice and snow. So before you get the Holy Bow, take a closer look at your blonde self~"
Ashe's life is divided into several stages, and the most noticeable change in appearance between the first and second stages is the change in hair color.
Meanwhile, watching Faan speaking eloquently, Glenna said after a moment's silence, "If what you said is true... then why did Gojiya send you here?"
Glenna frowned, feeling a bit of a headache, and was obviously overwhelmed by the massive amount of information.
"Actually, it's almost time now," Fane said as he sipped his soup. "Gokia asked me to come here to confirm the truth of what I said. Send a messenger back... well, Heilno is a good choice. She's your sister, and her status is important enough to go to the Winter Claw and have a good talk with Gokia about what's happening."
"What about you?" Glenna paused slightly to express her approval of Fan's idea of letting Heilno deliver the letter.
Haierno had indeed been resentful of her research into the legend of Avarosa. Glenna suspected that it wouldn't be long before Haierno took concrete action, rather than simply offering words of dissuasion...
Glenna's thoughts were similar. If Fane remembered correctly, it wouldn't be long before Heilnor challenged Glenna to a battle mother. He was ultimately defeated, only to watch Glenna stubbornly pursue her dream.
As it turned out, Glenna was right. Ashe was indeed the reincarnation of Avarosa. Glenna's guidance ushered Ashe and the entire Freljord into a new era. As a result, the entire Avarosa tribe, save for Ashe and a few who had been exiled or left before, was wiped out.
"You asked Heilno to go back and report the news, so what are you going to do here?" Glenna stared at Fane with burning eyes.
"What am I going to do? What can I do? I'll be a good person to the end, and see the Buddha to the west." Fan drank the fire-clearing soup in one gulp and said:
"Send Ashe to Avarosa's Tomb."
38
Faan was quite open-minded, a good person who would do his best to see the good things through. He had already come this far, so a little more distance wouldn't be a big deal. It also saved Glenna from dying for Ashe, as in the original storyline, leaving Ashe all alone in the entire tribe.
There's no need for that! Just avoid it if you can; it won't take much effort anyway.
Seeing Faan's indifferent expression, which just said "I'll help if you want to", Glenna fell into a brief silence. Then she said hesitantly, "Don't you want anything in return?"
Growing up on this icy plain, Glenna knew full well that profit was eternal. Especially as a War Mother, Glenna still couldn't understand why Xi Jian would abandon a centuries-old alliance over a verbal dispute...
Compared to Fane's current state, to be honest, Glenna would rather see Fane show an expression that says, "Why should I send you to find the Holy Bow of Avarosa if you don't give me some benefits?"
At least, this is something Glenna can understand.
Now, Fane's indifference to rewards made Glenna feel a little hesitant.
After a moment of silence, Glenna said, "Where are you going first?"
"Where to go? Let's go straight to Ancient Frost Mouth. Isn't Avarosa's tomb there?"
"Gu Shuangkou?"
Hearing this, Haiernuo and others beside him also frowned - they knew Gushuangkou, but it was not a good place.
The situation in other worlds is not clear, but based on the information Fane learned in Winter's Claw, the Ancient Frostmouth in the League of Legends universe where he is located is located in the center of the Dragon's Back Mountains, the largest and longest mountain range in the Freljord.
This massive mountain range surrounds the entire heart of the Freljord. Including the coastal lands, the Freljord consists of five plains, four of which are surrounded by the Dragon's Back Mountains.
The origins of the Dragon's Back Mountains are debated. Fann learned about them through the card game "Legends of Runeterra."
Legend has it that in ancient times, when the Freljord wasn't called Freljord but Volrigard, the primal demigod representing wild nature, Volibear, the Thundering Roar, wasn't called Volibear either, but Valhal.
Valhalla clashed with another primordial demigod, the Lava Serpent, Lund. Thunderroar triumphed, and the Lava Serpent succumbed. The Serpent's body was ripped apart by its claws, and its blood became the Freljord's first river. Thunderroar used the Serpent's remains to sharpen his claws, and as ice and snow accumulated, the Serpent's remains slowly became the Dragon's Back Mountains.
At the highest point of the Dragon's Back Mountains lies the Ancient Frostmouth. It is the highest point in the Freljord, a peak among the mountains, and has been the site of countless legends since ancient times.
"But it's precisely because of those countless legends that countless people throughout history have ventured to the Ancient Frost Pass." Heilno frowned and said, "But what was the final result? Everyone knows it. There was nothing there, just a bare expanse of ice and some scattered rocks!"
"That's because we don't have the right person." Faan said, "Don't blame the road for the bad people. Let Ashe go over and take a look. I can't say she will get the inheritance immediately, but she will definitely gain something."
"There's no need to go at all." Heilno shook his head to express his disbelief. In contrast, Glenna remained silent. After a moment, Glenna also raised her head and asked:
"Are you sure it's Gu Shuangkou?"
"Sister!" Upon hearing this, Heiluo looked puzzled.
Glenna didn't care about this, she just stared at Fahn. Fahn nodded and said:
"Yes, but let me be clear: there's no Avarosa throne there, nor any grand palace. It's just an ordinary stone cairn, but Avarosa's True Ice Bow is buried inside."
"……I see."
Glenna nodded thoughtfully.
Ignoring his sister's puzzled look, he took out his hand-drawn map and notes and said:
"I've made a lot of preparations before this, and according to my research, Ancient Frost Pass is indeed one of the most likely targets. However, many warriors have already attempted to climb it, and according to them, there's nothing there."
"Isn't this proof?" Heilno spread his hands.
"This proves they are not the right people." Glenna let out a breath, looked at her sister and said calmly:
"Just like Fane said... Heilnor, I know what you're thinking. But I can also tell you that the reason I'm so determined isn't for myself, but for Ashe. Ashe is the reincarnation of Avarosa. I'm absolutely certain of it, because I saw Ashe in the holy city of Rakstak... the statue of Avarosa. She's exactly like Ashe, both in temperament and the compassion in her eyes. There's no doubt that Ashe carries a mission."
"Because of a statue?"
Haiernuo was even more puzzled.
You could even be pushing a paper man? Why are you going crazy over a giant ice sculpture? If you went to the Harbin Ice and Snow World, what kind of crazy would you dare to do? Haiernuo couldn't even imagine it.
Ignoring Heilno, Glenna pointed to the Ancient Frost Pass, located at the edge of the hand-drawn map. "The Ancient Frost Pass is too high, covered in snow year-round. Climbing is only possible in the summer. If you agree that we're at the Ancient Frost Pass, then we'd better set off now."
"No!" Heiluo was angry.
"No," Fain objected.
"Huh?" Haiernuo was stunned - aren't you on my sister's side?
Glenna was also confused. Looking at Faan who objected, Glenna asked:
"What's the problem? Frostmouth is the coldest region in the Freljord, with snow falling year-round even in summer. And once winter arrives, it's so cold that even snowmen and trolls wouldn't dare approach."
"There are too many people," Fane said. "From what you say, you want to take the entire tribe to Ancient Frost Pass... Too many people, and even the slightest accident will lead to annihilation. Keep it small, four or five people will be enough, no need for more."
"...Four or five people?" Hearing this, Glenna raised her eyebrows and pointed at Gu Shuangkou and said, "Are you sure?"
"Of course, if possible, I even think that me, Sejuani, and Ashe would be enough." Faan spread his hands. "Too many people would be too big a target and wouldn't be much help. Especially the Hearth dwellers, they can't stand the low temperatures there."
"But if the number of people is too small, the danger will increase greatly." Glenna disagreed.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Fahn's face, as if to say "This is what I've been waiting for."
Seeing Faan's smiling face, Sejuani beside her couldn't help but cover her face - although she had not spent a long time with Faan, Sejuani already knew about Faan's temper.
Fain uttered the words he had long planned:
"Let's decide this the Freljord way!"
Fane has no bad intentions, Fane just wants to hunt.
39: I don’t agree with this marriage!
"You bastard! You came here looking for a fight from the beginning!"
Seeing Faan enthusiastically challenging her to a duel, Sejuani couldn't help herself. Pointing at Faan, she said, "I knew you weren't letting go when we were hunting those Frostfang Wolves! And now you're here with ill intentions towards Warmother Glenna!"
"That's true, I just want to fight."
Fain admitted it directly, with an expression that said, "That's right, that's just how I am." He said, "To be honest, I just learned a new move, but I haven't practiced it with anyone yet. I've been holding it in for so long, so I have to let it out, right? The others are too weak, so I can only publish this next part."
"We are here to form an alliance, not to fight!"
"I came here to hunt. If I can't hunt, I'll fight."
Faan put his hands on his waist and looked at Heilno, who was confused and didn't know why he suddenly opened up, and Glenna, who reacted with a look of "Oh? Man, you piqued my interest" on her face.
"Are you worried about Ashe getting into trouble along the way? I understand, because the journey isn't going to be peaceful. But instead of talking about it here, it's more in line with the Freljord style to see who has the harder fist, right?"
Hearing the eager provocation in Faan's words, and the unfeigned fighting spirit, Glenna was silent at first, and then a smile appeared on her slightly weathered face. Passionate arc tore at the corners of her mouth, and Glenna said with a fiery look in her eyes:
"Good! Very good! I was wondering why Gujia was so impatient, so this is why!"
"Boy!"
Standing up, Glenna walked to the door of the corner room and said, "I won't show any mercy—if you're not afraid of death, follow me!"
"Okay~"
Fine stood up on the spot and followed him out.
Seeing the scene unfolding before her, Sejuani slapped her forehead, then slid down, covering her face helplessly, and said to Ashe, "No, that's just Faan's personality. Besides hunting and fighting, he just drags me along... well, anyway, that's it."
"I think it's pretty good?" Hearing this, Ashe chuckled and said, "Look at my mother, it's obviously to her liking. And although you say that, you really like it too, right? Why don't you just show it directly..."
"Stop!" Glancing at Ashe with disdain, Sejuani curled her lips and said, "So you think you don't understand how despicable Faan is! If I really show it, just wait and see. He won't let go of the opportunity to get ahead of me!"
As she spoke, Sejuani recalled the night Faan had given her the Boar Spirit Gem. She'd only slightly relented, saying she'd listen to him that night, only to then go all the way and take advantage of the situation.
"Why is your face red?" Ashe looked at Sejuani curiously.
"Ah? Ah! It's okay, it's okay!" Sejuani waved her hands quickly and said, "Anyway, it's all thanks to Faen! Let's go out and check the situation first!"
Pulling Ashe outside, Faan and Glenna were already standing in the central open space of the tribe.
The area was crowded with people, all looking at Fane who was confronting Glenna with curiosity.
There wasn't much disgust or hatred, because Fane brought a large amount of wolf meat right away, allowing them to have a good meal of meat soup and potatoes.
The Freljord is indeed barbaric, but also very simple. You brought so much meat to our tribe, so you are a good person. Moreover, there is not much anger on Warmother Glenna's face now. On the contrary, she looks at Faan with a look of admiration.
Yes, I heard that this hunter who brought a lot of fresh meat was willing to prove his strength to Warmother Glenna in order to protect Ashe. How brave is that?
Well, the key point of this sentence is "bringing fresh meat".
If Fane came here empty-handed, and wanted to fight Glenna right after the Avarosan tribe had just survived a cold winter and was short of supplies, then you'd have to wait and see. The Avarosans were already starting to predict the future.
But he did not come empty-handed, and brought everyone a sumptuous first meal of summer. Since the food was served, the tribesmen naturally spoke well of him.
But even so, there are still some people who are unhappy with Faen.
For example, certain frost priests—though not many people cared about their opinions. After all, any war mother with a bit of foresight would use the frost priests' abilities to reduce the loss of personnel during the winter. The empty reputation within the tribe was fine, but what about other aspects? Powerful war mothers like Gorjia and Glenna were only given empty titles, without any real power.
While in the tent, Fane was not wearing armor. But after he was ready for battle, almost instantly, with the silent recitation of "equip", the Fire Dragon Armor appeared directly on Fane's body.
The steel base was inlaid with red scales. Standing there, Faan didn't feel as bulky as other heavily armored warriors. Instead, he felt agile and powerful.
