"Wait. So, you are a female?" Rocky asked in astonishment as soon as he heard the voice.
Meanwhile, a heavy gust of wind blew away the fluffy white cap that sat on top of the spiritual race being's head. Under this cap, there was a face that was white as snow. Her features were delicate and soft, coupled with piercing blue eyes that were as bright as the clear day sky. She had a pair of long ears that housed some of her tucked strands of hair that were as white as her.
Soon after, the spiritual light all over this woman's body rose sharply, and a strong aura immediately surrounded Rocky from all directions. All of a sudden, several snow chains shot out from the ground, directly entangling both Rocky and Robin.
With his current strength, it was very easy for Rocky to break free from the snow chains. However, it was so unexpected of him to show no signs of a struggle as if he had planned to do something else than escape.
Soon after, the snow woman instantly grabbed the snow chains entangling Rocky and Robin, and then dragged them beside the snow beast. Then, she lifted her other hand, took the upper limbs of the snow beast and shuttled into the endless Snow Cemetery Plain.
The only reason Rocky allowed himself to be easily caught by the snow chains was that he wanted the snow woman to help him lead the way so that he would not waste any more time finding the way himself. Besides, he wanted to know more about the origin of the snow woman's spiritual race clan.
'Is she a member of the nearly extinct Snow Master Clan?' Rocky, who was tied up by the snow chains, thought to himself as he looked up at the woman.
After walking for about an hour, Rocky suddenly laid eyes on some stone houses built on the foot of the mountain. These houses were closely arranged to each other that they resembled a tiny bustling village. From a distance, one could see some faint figures walking from one house to another.
After setting foot in the village, the snow woman immediately let out a very bizarre scream. Hearing this, everyone in the area dashed towards her and gathered around her. Soon after, several people clad in tight snow-white fur from head to foot came close to the woman to see what was going on. Based on what they were wearing, they were, without a doubt, from the same spiritual race clan as the woman.
But as soon as the people came near the woman, they saw two figures entangled by the snow chains—Rocky and Robin. Immediately, they all looked down and pointed their fingers towards the snow woman.
Surely, the people whispered to one another as they tried to make sense of what was happening. Of course, the woman heard these faint words of criticism, and a look of displeasure immediately appeared on her face.
Not long after, an old male spiritual race being came limping out of one of the stone houses in the village. But the moment he saw Rocky, the old man did not hesitate to walk towards the snow woman and whisper something serious to her ears. Then, he walked forward and untied the snow chains that bound Rocky and Robin.
"Thank you." Despite being doubtful of the man's intentions, Rocky still expressed his gratitude in a respectful manner.
"I'm sorry. My daughter did not think of her actions well. Please forgive her!" The old male spiritual race being lowered his head a little bit and kindly apologized to Rocky in human language. At the same time, he looked at Rocky up and down as if assessing him. The man thought that Rocky was still very young, but oddly enough had a very deep aura. Upon examining him, the man believed that Rocky must be a powerful spirit manipulator.
"So, you can speak the human language. Well, that's easy. Are you from the Snow Master Clan? The one that is on the brink of extinction in the Wild Spirit Land?" Rocky asked in an instant.
The man hesitated for a moment, but after finding the courage to respond, he said, "Yes, we are from the Snow Master Clan. I am Cyrus Xue, the head of this village."
"Nice to meet you. My name is Rocky. Thank you so much for freeing us." Rocky also introduced himself. To him, he didn't see Cyrus show any signs of arrogance to and prejudice towards humans. Instead, this man gave people a sense of modesty, so he naturally had a good first impression of him.
"Oh, it was nothing. You are welcome, Mr. Rocky. From your demeanor, I don't think you are a bad guy. It's cold outside. Please come in so we can talk somewhere warmer." After greeting Rocky politely, Cyrus ushered him into the stone house where he had just come out of.
Then, Rocky entered the house and noticed its minimalistic and simple decor. No bed was found, just some basic daily articles. In the center, a large pot hung with two wooden sticks as pillars, and under it was a pile of dry wood that kindled the bonfire.
