The man, Gu Xia Mo, narrowed his eyes at Long Qian Xing's greeting. Looking at the other party's appearance, it took him a moment before saying in a tentative tone, "Long Qian Xing?"
"It's me."
"…What bring you to this forsaken place?"
"To see you." Long Qian Xing shrugged. "Aside from my own new deployment area."
New deployment area.
Gu Xia Mo frowned when he heard Long Qian Xing's words. If Long Qian Xing was here, it meant that the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom should also be nearby. If they were to continue further to the south, it would be inevitable for them to e here.
He noticed that some people were looking from within the cave and waved his hand. "Follow me to the back, this is no place to talk."
"Ok."
The two of them walked to follow Gu Xia Mo. This area was quite vast with a lot of snow. If one were not careful, they might step on the weak point and fell down, but Gu Xia Mo was familiar and knew the stone's structure below them.
Following him was the safest method.
Soon, they reached a clearing on the back. It was still snowing, but there was a large tree standing there. There were no leaves left, yet the tree stubbornly held on and stand tall in this place.
Gu Xia Mo stopped not far from the tree and pointed at the rocks scattered around. "You can pick your seat wherever you want. I have no tea here, so I can't serve you anything."
"It's already a challenge to live in this place." Long Qian Xing nodded and sat not far from Gu Xia Mo. Nan Hua followed not far from Long Qian Xing.
Gu Xia Mo also saw Nan Hua, but he didn't recognize her. Since she was brought with Long Qian Xing, he chose to ignore Nan Hua's presence.
"Why did you want to find me? Trying to figure out whether all of us are here?" Gu Xia Mo asked, his tone was calm and indifferent.
"That can be a good reason." Long Qian Xing rubbed his chin. "Jin Nian is also here."
Gu Xia Mo's eyes trembled when he heard that name. He looked at Long Qian Xing coldly. "My relationship with her had nothing to do with you."
"I know."
"Then…"
"I'm just here to tell you that and also to ask some question." Long Qian Xing pointed at the ice below. "That's your masterpiece, isn't it? How did you make it until this far?"
Gu Xia Mo didn't immediately answer. He looked at the ice below that had gotten so big that it looked like an island on its own and sighed. "I e here with my people to avoid the war." Instead of answering, Gu Xia Mo started his own story, "There are too many deaths and the condition of Wei Da Kingdom is very severe. The Emperor had no care for the people, people are suffering, and the local officials didn't want to help at all.
I set off with my people, traveling further to the south carefully and then set up this place. But to hide from them all is not easy."
Gu Xia Mo raised his head and then said,
Long Qian Xing looked at Gu Xia Mo speechlessly,
" Long Qian Xing said in a slow voice. ""
Gu Xia Mo's eyes flickered and then replied ""
"What did you say?" Long Qian Xing was so startled that he stood up.
Nan Hua's eyes also flickered.
