One day later.
Outside Huaxia.
On the boundless wilderness, an SUV is straining forward, and Lin Fan sits in the back seat with his eyes closed, resting.
At this mont, the northern wilderness of the North Ice Plain had already entered winter, and the temperature had dropped to below minus ten degrees Celsius.
"Senior Lin, it will take another five hours. By tonight at ten o’clock, we should be able to reach Black Bear Town. Black Bear Town is very close to Wolf God Valley, and it’s the last town my father stayed in," said Shangguan Mingyue, who was driving, in a low voice, afraid to disturb Lin Fan’s rest.
"Got it."
Lin Fan replied indifferently.
The car fell back into silence, leaving only various natural sounds coming from outside.
About ten minutes later, Shangguan Mingyue suddenly stepped on the brakes and frowned, "Senior Lin, there’s soone ahead."
In front about a hundred ters away, an SUV was also parked, apparently broken down, with a cold flare on its roof, presumably a distress signal.
"If you’re not in a hurry to rescue your dad, you can go and ask what’s going on."
Lin Fan casually remarked without even lifting his eyelid.
Shangguan Mingyue was stunned for a mont, then her gaze sharpened, and she stepped on the gas pedal, driving towards the stalled SUV and stopped next to it.
"Ah! Soone, soone has co to rescue us!"
The people inside the vehicle were overjoyed, and two young girls in their twenties rushed down, wearing down jackets and holding hot coffee, looking incredibly excited.
"Hello, our car broke down, can we ride with you?"
One of the girls asked excitedly.
Shangguan Mingyue looked at them and seeing they were just two ordinary girls without any danger, let them get into the car.
From getting to know them, Shangguan Mingyue learned that one girl was nad Shen Chuyao, and the other was Han Qiong.
The two ca from Tianhai City in Huaxia and drove north on a road trip during the National Day holiday. They had been out for over a month, finally crossed the border, and arrived at the North Ice Plain.
Right after they arrived, they heard a werewolf legend, so they drove here to find the werewolf. Unexpectedly, just a few days out, the car’s engine broke down, and they were stranded in the wilderness for two days. Luckily, the heating system was still functioning, or they would have frozen to death in the wilderness.
"You ca looking for a werewolf?" Shangguan Mingyue was surprised.
"Yes, we’ve heard that the werewolves here drink blood and are like wild beasts! We had heard about the hungry wolf legends in Europe, and Russia has the red-haired big wolf spirits. We are really interested in these supernatural things, imagine encountering a werewolf... It’s so exciting!" Shen Chuyao said excitedly with her face lit up.
Shangguan Mingyue frowned.
Young people nowadays really don’t know how to write the word ’death’!
Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster would avoid mature werewolves, and these two young girls are actually actively seeking them out?
"Don’t worry, once we reach a populated area and get internet access, we will pay you," said Han Qiong.
"We’ll be arriving at Black Bear Town soon, I’ll let you off there, and you don’t need to pay," Shangguan Mingyue said, not wanting to talk further.
Shangguan Mingyue’s SUV, unlike ordinary SUVs, has three rows of seats. Han Qiong and Shen Chuyao were sitting in the middle row.
At this point, the two girls noticed Lin Fan, who was sitting in the last row.
"Huh?"
Shen Chuyao paused, looking at Lin Fan strangely and muttered, "Why is this man only wearing a single layer of clothing, isn’t he cold?"
Although they were in a car with the air conditioning on, the current temperature in the North Ice Plain was already below minus ten degrees Celsius, and the further north they went, the colder it got.
Even in an air-conditioned car, a person with average physical fitness wearing only a single layer of clothing certainly wouldn’t be able to stand it.
"Hey, aren’t you cold?" Shen Chuyao asked bluntly.
"Yaoyao, don’t bother them, we are in soone else’s car right now," Han Qiong furrowed her brow and quickly intervened.
"Alright!"
Shen Chuyao had no choice but to stop.
Only then did Han Qiong secretly observe Lin Fan. Lin Fan was sitting there, his hands placed flat on his knees. The off-road vehicle was traveling on a rough wilderness, very unevenly, yet Lin Fan’s back didn’t lean against the seat, but was straight as an ancient bell.
As for Lin Fan’s appearance, Han Qiong was sowhat smitten.
She had t many n, even seen nurous South Korean celebrities.
Still, she had never t a man as handso as Lin Fan, particularly that aura emanating from him, not sothing ordinary youths possess.
’What a strange person.’
Han Qiong thought to herself, then her eyelids grew heavier, and she slowly fell asleep.
After an unknown period, Han Qiong faintly heard talking next to her:
"Grandmaster Lin, Black Bear Town is reached, but the situation here is very complicated now. Black Bear Town used to be a normal village, with the people mainly living off hunting and mining. Now, I don’t know what happened, but many from the underworld have co here. To my knowledge, there are at least dozens of powers in Black Bear Town now, from all over the world!"
"Let’s go inside and check out the situation first," a young voice.
"Okay."
Following this, Han Qiong heard Shangguan Mingyue’s voice near her ear: "Wake up! We’ve arrived at Black Bear Town, it’s ti to go!"
"Huh?"
Shen Chuyao was suddenly startled awake, looking bewildered at her surroundings.
While Han Qiong subconsciously looked out the car window towards Black Bear Town, and was stunned by what she saw!
Lin Fan was walking on the snow, hands behind his back, still wearing just a thin jacket, utterly ignoring the outside temperature.
"Oh my gosh!"
Han Qiong gasped softly.
...
After entering Black Bear Town, Shen Chuyao was also shocked by the sight of Lin Fan and said in a low voice, "Does this guy really not feel the cold? I’ve heard that abroad there is a condition called cryopathy, where affected individuals do not fear the cold, even living in short sleeves at minus ten degrees. Could this handso guy have that condition?"
"Yaoyao, please keep quiet," Han Qiong hurriedly intervened.
Black Bear Town had an eerie atmosphere everywhere; it was better to speak less at this ti.
Next, Lin Fan and the others arrived at the biggest hostel in Black Bear Town.
The place called a hostel was actually a large bar that had been converted. Just as they entered, they were struck by a sharp sll of alcohol, and all the people inside turned their gaze towards them!
Among these people were n, won, elderly, and children, Asians, Caucasians, Africans, and even rcenaries, bounty hunters, and assassins!
As soon as Lin Fan entered the hostel, he sensed several cold intents!
It wasn’t targeted at him, but was naturally carried by these people.
"Two rooms!"
Shangguan Mingyue quietly walked up to the front.
"Why two?" Shen Chuyao asked curiously.
"We have four people here; why not one room each? Don’t worry, we have plenty of money!"
Shen Chuyao looked careless, seemingly unaware of the precarious nature of their situation!
"Young lady, what are you thinking wanting four rooms in a situation like this? You wish for a lot! But if you want, you can co and sleep with tonight; my room is big and the bed’s very soft," a crude man stood up, a leering smile on his face as he spoke.
