Chapter 23 Ch 23: The Land Of Frigid Sun

nThe terrain of Lost Forest of Red Moon was like a maze. If one is not careful, one will keep walking on the same path again and again.
nThe same happened with Ye Xiao.
nIn order to escape from the unknown existence, Ye Xiao first used his teleportation ability and then kept running without giving much attention to his surroundings. This resulted in his reappearance at the same place where everything started.
n“I was careless!” Ye Xiao sighed in his heart and carefully observed the surroundings, afraid of attracting the wooden monster’s attention.
nFortunately, this time no vine or wooden claw attacked him. It also meant that the unknown wooden monster was going for someone else’s life right now.
nYe Xiao took advantage of this opportunity to move forward while leaving behind marks on trees and ground so that he would not be lost in this Lost Forest and keep circling around on the same path again and again.
nAs he moved forward, he continued to encounter corpses of people one after another. Some of these people were assassins, some were from Green Cloud City, and some were from Light Rain City. It could be seen that all the people who entered the Lost Forest of Red Moon encounter a danger that they could not deal with.
nIf anyone could fight that wooden monster, then it was either the City Lord of Green Cloud City or the City Lord of Light Rain City. Both of them were Chaos Dust Realm warriors after all.
nIn fact, unknown to Ye Xiao, there was a third person as well. This person was Lu Shan, Lu Sha’s brother.
nYe Xiao’s trial was to explore the Lost Forest of the Red Moon. If the ruin of Red Moon is really located inside the Lost Forest, then it is also a must-explore place for Ye Xiao. He had to explore it.
nThus, while dealing with all kinds of dangers including but not limited to demonic beasts, Tree Demons, and even that monster who used the wooden claw and vines to kill people.
nAs days passed by, Ye Xiao encountered that monster more than five times. Fortunately, he had a few special abilities that made sure Ye Xiao’s safety every time.
nAs Ye Xiao was getting deeper and deeper into the forest, the danger was also increasing. Every step Ye Xiao took was in extreme care.
nWhile he was walking, he suddenly heard the sound of battle.
nYe Xiao was alerted and carefully followed the direction of the sound and soon arrived a hundred meters away from the place where a beautiful young girl was fighting a battle against a Tree Demon.
n“Who is she?”
nYe Xiao frowned, for he did not see her before entering the Lost Forest of Red Moon. She looked young, about twenty-something years old, but her strength had already reached the Second Cycle of Chaotic Transformation. This showed that this girl is also a rare talent.
nYe Xiao has no idea about her identity, but since she appeared inside the forest, she must be after the ruin of Red Moon as well.
nBeing a strong warrior, the beautiful girl was able to kill the Tree Demon after a fierce battle. She heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the corpse of Tree Demon. Then she picked up a small knife and took out a fist-sized crystal from the corpse of Tree Demon.
n“That must be the Demon Core!”
nYe Xiao muttered in a low voice and kept looking at the girl.
n“Who is there?”
nThe girl must have felt someone was watching her, she immediately took out the sword and shouted.
nYe Xiao knew that he was discovered, so he no longer continued to hide. He came out from behind a tree and appeared in front of the beautiful girl. Then he said: “Don’t worry, I have no ill intention. I was just passing by when I suddenly heard the sound of battle. Thus, I followed the sound and happened to see you fighting the Tree Demon. It is all just a coincidence!”
nThe beautiful young girl carefully observed Ye Xiao’s expression, and seeing no flaw in his explanation, she nodded and said: “Who are you? Which power do you belong to? I have never seen you before?”
nYe Xiao frowned. The way this girl ask the question made Ye Xiao think of something else. It was as if she was not surprised by Ye Xiao’s appearance, she just wanted to know which force Ye Xiao belonged to.
nWhy is that?
nWhy is not surprised by Ye Xiao’s appearance in the forest?
nCould it be that many people have come to explore the Lost Forest of Red Moon?
nNo, that was impossible.
nAccording to the trial and the information he received, the Lost Forest of Red Moon was discovered by the combined forces of Light Rain City and Green Cloud City through the map that was sold to Lei Guang by ‘Ye Xiao’ at some unknown time.
nOther than these two cities, there was not a single another person who knew the location of Lost Forest of Red Moon.
nThen how did this girl come here? And what does she mean by telling him that she has never seen him before?
nTo know more, Ye Xiao first answered the beautiful girl’s question: “My name is Ye Xiao, I have come from the Light Rain City.”
n“Light Rain City?” The young girl frowned and muttered: “I have never heard about this city before. Where is this city located?”
nYe Xiao frowned again. The Lost Forest of Red Moon has clearly hidden underground in the Green Cloud City. The Light Rain City is the neighbor city of Green Cloud City and is very famous. It is impossible for the Green Cloud City to be known and Light Rain City to not be known.
n“Have you heard of Green Cloud City?” Ye Xiao again asked. He kept feeling something was very wrong with this trial. Everything was becoming more and more mysterious.
n“Green Cloud City?” The beautiful girl frowned again and then shook her head, saying: “Never heard of it!”
n“Then how did you come here? How did you enter the Lost Forest of Red Moon?” Ye Xiao again asked.
n“What are you talking about? Don’t you know how we come… Wait a minute! Lost Forest of Red Moon? Could this be the name of this forest? How did you know?”
nThe beautiful girl was very surprised. She did not expect Ye Xiao to know the name of this unknown forest.
nBut her response shocked Ye Xiao. He could not understand the current situation at all.
nWhat the hell is going on here? Who is this girl and where did she come from? Why does she not know the name of the forest she was in?
n“Who are you? How did you come to the Lost Forest of Red Moon?” Ye Xiao frowned and again asked. This time, he sounded very serious.
nThe girl looked at Ye Xiao strangely. Then she suddenly thought of something and exclaimed: “Don’t tell me you are a native of this secret realm? Then… the Light Rain City and Green Cloud City you are talking about must be cities inside the secret realm as well. It is no wonder I never heard about these two cities and you know the name of this forest.”
n“Secret Realm?” Ye Xiao was again shocked.
n‘What the hell is going on? How could the trial ground that should have been the First Floor of Golden Tower suddenly become a secret realm?’
nYe Xiao cursed in his heart and then said: “Tell me more about it.” .
nThe beautiful girl looked at Ye Xiao as if she was looking at a treasure. She said excitedly: “If you are a native, then you must know where the ruin of Red Moon Temple is, right?”
n“Red Moon Temple?”
nYe Xiao immediately understood that this girl must be talking about the ruin of Red Moon. It is just that there was an extra word. That word was ‘temple’.
n“You don’t know the name of this forest but you know about the ruin of Red Moon Temple? How? And what do you mean by secret realm?” Ye Xiao asked seriously. Currently, he wanted nothing more than to lift the curtain of every secret.
nThe beautiful girl nodded and calmed her excitement. Then she started telling Ye Xiao everything she knew. She spoke: “I am about to tell you something that might shock you, but it is the truth. This place that you call Lost Forest of Red Moon, Light Rain City, and Green Cloud City, is nothing but a part of the secret realm.”
n“My name is Su Ling, and I came from a power called the Mystic Heaven Sect. My sect is located in the Frozen Sky Region of the Land of Frigid Sun. Being a person living in a secret realm, you might not know anything about the Land of Frigid Sun, but this is not important right now.”
n“Let’s talk about this secret realm!”
