Chapter 30
Beneath the Glacier

“Big bro, keep it down!”

Seeing that Wang Fatty still hadn't toned it down at all, Lao Hu quickly covered his mouth.

“This is an ice-crack, if we make too much noise, we could trigger an avalanche and we'll all die here. Do you understand?”

Patting Wang Fatty's face, which was red from the cold, Bai Tian Yu lectured him.

“Alright, let him go. He probably gets it now.”

Seeing Wang Fatty's mouth moving, it was clear he understood.

“Lao Hu, Lao Bai, come quick!”

At that moment, Xue Li Yang's voice rang out from afar, seeming to have discovered something.

The two exchanged a look, threw Wang Fatty aside, and headed towards Xue Li Yang.

“Hey, you guys, pull me up!”

Seeing that the two left as soon as they heard Xue Li Yang, ignoring their own brother, Wang Fatty got anxious.

But he did understand why Lao Hu covered his mouth, so his voice was relatively quiet this time.

“You go ahead, I’ll pull 胖子 up.”

Glancing at Wang Fatty, Lao Hu chose to stay.

“What’s wrong?”

Arriving beside Xue Li Yang, Bai Tian Yu saw a corpse. Due to being in the glacier, the body hadn’t rotted, but it was frozen solid.

“This is one of my father’s archeological team!”

Taking the pistol from the corpse's hand, she skillfully removed the magazine, checked it, and saw it was full, before putting it back in.

“Their equipment is a set, I’ve seen it!”

“Okay, looks like we’re in the right place.”

Nodding, he didn’t pay any attention to Xue Li Yang putting away the gun.

After all, they had obtained semi-automatic weapons from the Kunlun Military District to complete this mission. Wang Fu's reputation was quite big.

A pistol was nothing to worry about.

“Lao Hu, there’s actually another corpse, is it one of your comrades?”

Wang Fatty arrived just then, curiously asking about the corpse.

“Impossible, after a Fire Beetle attack, nothing remains but ashes.”

“Just like those over there…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Hu’s mouth twitched.

It was possible they hadn’t encountered any Fire Beetles on their journey, they were probably all here.

After all, there seemed to be a lot of white, bone-like things nearby, looking almost human.

“Looks like we’ve reached the destination!”

“What do you mean?”

Now Lao Hu was confused. Judging from the surrounding situation, they had reached the Fire Beetle’s lair.

But why did Bai Tian Yu say they had approached their destination?

“What are the Dap Ghost Bugs?”

“They are the Demon Realm’s demonic slaves. What does the appearance of the Demon Realm’s demonic slaves here signify?”

“It means there’s an ancient tomb!”

Wang Fatty was very sensitive to ancient tombs, and immediately guessed it.

“Right, the Dap Ghost Bugs wouldn’t appear in the glacier without a reason. It’s definitely because there’s something here they need to guard!”

“胖子, you’re right!”

Nodding, Bai Tian Yu actually praised Wang Fatty this time.

“Of course, who am I? I’m Fatty Ye!”

It actually made Wang Fatty happy.

“Let’s continue forward then!”

Seeing this, Xue Li Yang suggested.

“Let’s go, Yang Miss, you walk in the middle. I’ll lead the way!”

“胖子, you cover the rear!”

Nodding, Bai Tian Yu instructed.

After a short while, they walked into a cave.

Soon, the four of them were almost approaching the underground river.

“What are all these things? Are they valuable?”

Wang Fatty curiously asked about the surrounding lepidolite.

“These are lepidolite, a crystalline substance that grows underground. They’re not valuable!”

Xue Li Yang explained, making Wang Fatty disappointed.

It wasn’t like there was a shortage of lepidolite here. If it was truly rare and valuable, there wouldn’t be so much.

“Lao Bai, I’m going to take some pictures, I need to send them to the magazine!”

Xue Li Yang took out her camera and asked.

“Alright, Lao Hu, you and 胖子 rest by the underground river. Yang Miss and I will take some pictures.”

Nodding, Bai Tian Yu decided to go with Xue Li Yang.

It wasn’t safe here. Not to mention if there were any awake Dap Ghost Bugs, the underground river also contained wild King Salamanders. So it was better to be careful.

“What, you don’t trust me?”

Seeing that Lao Hu and Wang Fatty had left, Xue Li Yang teased.

“No, as the descendant of the Ban Shan Dao Ren, how could I not trust you? It’s just that this place isn’t safe.”

Shaking his head, Bai Tian Yu was quite familiar with Xue Li Yang, how could he not trust her.

“You say Jing Jue Ancient City has the Kun Dust Pearl?”

Thinking about her destiny, Xue Li Yang’s mood became slightly gloomy. It wasn’t that she lacked confidence, but she had no clue at all.

Even her own grandfather couldn’t find the Kun Dust Pearl, how could she, a half-baked Ban Shan Dao Ren, possibly find it.

“No.”

“Why?”

“Because the Kun Dust Pearl was passed down from Jing Jue Ancient City!”

The Kun Dust Pearl, also known as the Snake God’s Eye, first appeared from the Ghost Cave. It was taken away by the Demon Realm people at the time, and then lost in the lands of China.

Eventually, that old turtle, King Xian, took it with him into his coffin. The Jing Jue Ancient City never had the Kun Dust Pearl.

“Then will our journey have any gains?”

Xue Li Yang didn’t know why, but she felt like Bai Tian Yu knew the answer.

“You’re asking me? How would I know!”

If the Jing Jue Ancient City was like the television series, there wouldn’t be much point in going.

But if it was the novel version, it was completely different. Not to mention the Queen of Jing Jue who had lived for thousands of years, just the Ant Queen, which was the size of a calf.

If they killed it, Bai Tian Yu’s Golden Light Spell and Five Thunder Righteousness could be fully comparable to Zhang Ling Yu.

By then, even that old turtle, King Xian, wouldn’t be anything to fear for Bai Tian Yu.

Seeing that Bai Tian Yu wasn’t saying anything, Xue Li Yang started taking pictures.

“Click!”

“Click!”

“Click!”

After a while, Xue Li Yang put away her camera.

“Let’s go, I’m done!”

“Okay, let’s go!”

By the underground river, Wang Fatty and Lao Hu were resting.

“Hey, do you think Lao Bai has a thing for that foreign girl?”

“So what if he does, Lao Bai isn’t bad himself!”

“What, you’re jealous?”

Wang Fatty immediately retorted when he heard Lao Hu’s sarcasm.

“Don’t be ridiculous. I don’t trust that foreign girl. I suspect she’s not a Ban Shan Dao Ren at all, but some kind of free-country spy!”

“You’ve watched too many movies!”
