Chapter 2873
Ultimately, the Ice Pillar Fragment is a unique treasure of this frigid northern region, found nowhere else on the planet!
Only those who endure the harsh winters in this part of the world know about the Ice Spirit Fragments!
“We just obtained an Ice Soul Fragment, but someone attempted to steal it during the process, and I ended up taking one of them down!”
Kai elaborated!
It was at that moment that Wajang noticed a charred corpse lying a short distance away!
“Kai, what exactly is this Ice Soul Fragment?”
Liu Ruyan inquired, her curiosity piqued!
“Legend has it that the Ice Soul Fragment is ……”
At this point, the tile jar began to explain, echoing what Gao Qilan had previously said, confirming that Gao Qilan had indeed been truthful with Kai!
“I never expected such a desolate and harsh environment to conceal such a treasure.”
“Kai, hurry and show me what this Ice Spirit Fragment looks like!”
Liu Ruyan couldn’t contain her excitement!
“I’ve already absorbed the Ice Soul Fragment; it’s long gone ……”
Kai replied sheepishly!
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan could only huff in annoyance, and the group resumed their journey!
It was only when darkness fell that they managed to find a suitable place to rest!
………………
In this icy northern territory, there lies a sprawling manor covering dozens of acres. In such a harsh land, a family that owns a manor of this size must possess considerable strength!
This is the residence of the Gao family. Hundreds of family members live within this estate, which is surrounded by numerous guard posts and protective formations!
These defenses could be to fend off attacks from wild beasts or to thwart any surprise assaults from rivals!
Gao Qilan returned quietly to her family manor, having slipped out without her elder brother, Gao Qiang, noticing. If he found out, she would surely face his wrath!
“The Eldest Miss has returned ……”
The two guards stationed at the door immediately noticed Gao Qilan and rushed to greet her!
“You two haven’t reported my absence, have you?”
Gao Qilan asked, eyeing the guards closely!
“No, no, absolutely not ……” The guards quickly assured her, waving their hands in protest!
“You’d better be wise about this. I promise to bring you something nice from outside next time I get the chance.”
With that, Gao Qilan smiled and entered the Gao family manor!
Initially, she intended to sneak back to her room unnoticed, but she unexpectedly encountered two individuals!
“The Second Young Master is planning to have quite the night again; the two girls he caught are exceptionally attractive.”
“I can tell the Second Young Master is quite taken with them; I just wonder if he’ll let us have a turn when he’s done. It’s been ages since I’ve been with a woman.”
The two men were chatting as they walked, completely oblivious to Gao Qilan standing nearby!
Upon hearing their conversation, Gao Qilan frowned and interrupted, “What did you just say? Did my second brother go out to capture another woman?”
When the two men noticed Gao Qilan, they froze and quickly waved their hands, “No, we didn’t say anything ……”
They looked genuinely frightened of her!
“You better tell me the truth; if you lie, I might just kill you both right here!”
Gao Qilan glared at them fiercely!
The two men trembled and quickly confessed, “Miss, the Second Young Master has indeed captured two girls, and they are currently locked in the dungeon, along with him.”
“That second brother of mine, truly a dog that can’t change its ways ……”
Once Gao Qilan heard this, her expression shifted, and she hurried toward the dungeon!
Meanwhile, inside the dungeon, Fire Phoenix and Yu Jiameng were locked away, their powers suppressed, rendering them as helpless as ordinary individuals!
Gao Qisheng approached Fire Phoenix and Yu Jiameng with a sinister gleam in his eyes!
“Don’t come any closer, please don’t!”
Yu Jiameng and Fire Phoenix huddled together, pressing against the corner in fear!
“Hahahaha, just stop resisting. If you both cooperate, I promise I won’t harm you.”
Gao Qisheng laughed menacingly!
