When a Western Fantasy Witch Traveled to the Immortal Cultivation World and Became the King of Scrol

Chapter 94: The Mysterious Disappearance of the Ice Domain Sect
"Wait a minute, what did you say? You said the older female cultivator went to the Ice Domain Sect?"

A monk guarding the city grabbed Zhou Ling in panic.

Zhou Ling was also panicked by his expression.

"Yeah! Is there any problem? Can't we go to the Ice Domain Sect?"

"Then when did she leave? Where did she go from?" the monk guarding the city asked.

"She followed the same route she came from, probably heading straight southwest." Zhou Ling swallowed nervously, waiting for what the monk guarding the city would say next.

"It's bad! It's bad! Did she fly over the Snow-Covered Forest? Do you know what the Snow-Covered Forest is called? In our area, it is commonly known as the Monster Forest! The forest covers a large area, and there are all kinds of monsters living in it, including the Flying Eagle Monster! It is a monster with a strong sense of territory! Anyone who rides a spirit boat or flies over them will be targeted. If they are targeted, the consequences will be..."

The monk guarding the city did not have the heart to continue speaking, because the consequences did not need to be stated, and everyone understood.

"Impossible, we also took a spirit boat when we came here, and we didn't see the so-called eagle monster." Although Zhou Ling was afraid in her heart, she still denied it subconsciously. After all, she and her mother walked that road together, and they didn't know if there were any monsters flying in the sky.

"That only means you were lucky and didn't run into it! Hey... Hey!"

The next two "ahs" sounded like regret and sighs.

"No, in this case, I must go find her."

Zhou Ling couldn't stay any longer. If her mother was in danger and had not returned yet, she would go to save her no matter what.

We must go back together if we came out together! I just regret that when my mother said she wanted to go to Bingyu Sect to take a look, why didn’t they ask about the current situation in the surrounding area in advance!

The monks guarding the city couldn't stop her, and a group of people shouted anxiously from behind, telling her not to go as it was dangerous.

Zhou Ling didn't care about all this. No matter how dangerous it was, the important thing was to find the talent first.

But just as he released the spirit boat and took a few hurried steps, he saw his mother limping back on the road ahead leading to Winter City.

injured!
Shocked, Zhou Ling even forgot to use his Taoist magic and ran over there in a hurry, almost tripping over a stone on the way.

"Don't run, you'll fall."

Waving his scratched hand at her, Zhou Li supported himself on his knees, stopped where he was, and took a few deep breaths.

……

I took my mother on the spirit boat and flew all the way back to the City Lord's Mansion.

She actually had a lot of questions to ask, but when she saw the large and small wounds on her mother's body, and even her robes were torn, she didn't want to ask anything. She just wanted to find a quiet place to change her mother's clothes and treat her wounds.

"You kid, you're quite patient." Seeing Zhou Ling pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time, Zhou Li smiled, raised his injured fingertip, and lightly poked her nose.

"Then I don't care. I will start asking. Why did you take so long? Where did the injuries on your body come from? Was you attacked by a monster?" She had been holding back her tears the whole way, but after being poked by her mother, the tears fell uncontrollably.

My mother's ability to recover has always been very strong. She must have experienced a fierce battle outside! After returning to Winterfell, she had no strength to repair these minor wounds on her body.

"Grow up, stop crying. It's embarrassing. Mom is fine. I didn't fight with the monster, but with a human. Don't worry, Mom won. I didn't suffer any loss. The other person fought with Mom for a few moves and fell to the ground and died."

When talking about this trip, Zhou Li just wanted to sigh.

"Without reinforcements, I arrived at the Ice Domain Sect, but there was no one there... I wandered around there for a long time, but didn't see a single person. Their mountain protection formation was shut down, and all the barriers, big and small, in the sect disappeared without a trace, just like the people. Everything there seemed to be in good order, with a breath of life. Meat was stewing on the stoves of their restaurants in the market, and some of their pill furnaces on the Dan Peak were still on fire, with the pills burned to slag. Ling'er, the people there seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden."

Zhou Ling grabbed her mother's cold and trembling hand and was also so shocked that she didn't know how to start.

The Bingyu Sect is a small sect. Due to its special location in the north, which is extremely cold, it can basically only accept local disciples. People from outside are not very willing to come to such a cold place. Although their sect has existed for a long time, it has never grown strong.

But the fact that an old sect has been established for such a long time and has not collapsed due to the scarcity of disciples is enough to show that it still has a strong foundation and a unique way of maintaining its operations.

The elixir in the alchemy furnace has burned into slag, but there is still meat stewing on the stove?
What could have happened that would make them ignore all this and just withdraw?
Or maybe, they didn't withdraw, they really disappeared out of thin air just as my mother said!

"Then what about the people who fought with you? Are they from the Ice Domain Sect?" Zhou Ling suddenly remembered this clue and asked hurriedly.

"He didn't say anything. He looked like he was seriously injured, breathing in more than out. But I seem to have seen the Taoist robes he was wearing. During the Taoist competition, several people in the foundation-building group wore ice-blue robes without any decorations. They were defeated in the first round. Although I have an impression, it is not a deep impression. Since the robes are the same, that person should be from the Ice Domain Sect. By the way, Ling'er, take a look at the communication talisman. When I was in the Ice Domain Sect, I sent you a message. Do you receive it?"

The most important thing at the moment is to find a way to contact the outside world as soon as possible.

It was already very strange that the monsters in the snow-covered forest suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the nearby mortal city for no reason, but later on, something that seemed to be able to control the monsters appeared hidden in the forest, and there was also the bizarre incident that all the people in the Ice Domain Sect disappeared mysteriously.

No matter which one it is, it should be spread quickly and attract everyone's attention.

Zhou Li had a bad feeling.

The direction she and her daughter chose for this trip was actually the direction with the least accidents in recent years.

According to their original plan, they were going to walk all the way to the northernmost point to see what the North Pole looked like, then head west, following the direction of the sunset, and see the scenery along the way. They would stop when approaching the south, then cross the plains and mountains, take the middle line, and head east until they reach the end.

The volcanic area in the south is where the demons are suppressed. The closer they get to there, the more rampant the subordinates left behind by the demons become. They are still weak and dare not get too close.

They originally planned to avoid danger, but in the end, what path did they take?

The snow-covered forest is the starting point of my arrival in this world.

Now that they, mother and daughter, have arrived here, so many deadly things have happened around the snow-covered forest.

Is it hinting at something?

Is it implying that her starting point is the end point?
