After a fierce breakout, the Frost Sect disciples led by Qin Mu and Bai Ruoxue successfully escaped from the city, but they still did not completely get rid of the enemy's pursuit. Along the way, Qin Mu remained alert at all times, knowing that the enemy would not give up easily. They were walking in a dense forest, with swaying shadows of trees and a silent environment that seemed to hide countless dangers.

Suddenly, Qin Mu felt a familiar sense of oppression, which was the breath of the enemy approaching step by step. He stopped, frowned slightly, and quickly glanced around. Although the enemy had not yet appeared, he could already feel an invisible threat looming around him.

Bai Ruoxue and the disciples also noticed something was wrong, and they all tightened their weapons and looked around nervously. The wind in the woods seemed to become faster, blowing the leaves with a rustling sound, as if they were whispering for the upcoming battle.

"Mr. Qin, have we been discovered?" Bai Ruoxue asked in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.

Qin Mu nodded slightly, his expression still calm: "The enemy has caught up with us, they will not let us go easily. Everyone, be prepared and fight at any time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled sound of footsteps came from deep in the woods, and then dozens of men in black surrounded him from all directions. They held sharp blades and had cold eyes, and were obviously well-trained killers. There was no unnecessary sound between their steps.

The leading man in black walked forward with a sneer, his eyes revealing a fierce murderous intent: "Qin Mu, you run pretty fast, but today you can't escape even if you have wings."

Qin Mu stared at him coldly and said calmly: "It seems that you have been prepared for a long time. You are chasing us very closely."

The man in black stopped talking and waved his hand to order: "Go ahead, kill them all, leave no one alive!"

Before he finished speaking, dozens of men in black rushed towards Qin Mu and the disciples of the Frost Sect from all directions. Their swords flashed and their movements were as swift as the wind, and it was obvious that they wanted to annihilate Qin Mu and the others in one fell swoop.

Qin Mu did not hesitate at all. The sub-biological engine in his hand immediately shone with dazzling blue light. With a slight movement of his wrist, a blue beam of light burst out from the engine like lightning, directly hitting the men in black who were rushing in the front. The speed of the beam of light was extremely fast. Before the men in black could even react, they were pierced by the blue light and fell to the ground dead instantly.

"Everyone be careful! The weapon in his hand is not simple!" another man in black exclaimed, but it was too late.

Qin Mu's attack was extremely swift. The beams of light from the sub-biological engine were like dense rain of swords. Each beam of light hit the enemy accurately and without error, leaving them without any chance to fight back. In just a few seconds, many men in black fell in a pool of blood. Qin Mu's figure shuttled through the light and shadow like a ghost.

"Retreat!" Seeing their companions fall one after another, several men in black were terrified and tried to retreat to save their lives. However, how could Qin Mu give them a chance to escape? The sub-biological engine in his hand once again burst out with strong energy, and the light spread out like a substance, forming an insurmountable barrier that enveloped all the enemies.

In the light, the figures of the men in black gradually dissipated, as if torn apart by an invisible force. Their screams echoed in the silent woods, then were drowned out by the sound of the wind, and there was no echo anymore.

After a while, the forest returned to calm, and only scattered corpses and traces of blood remained on the ground. Qin Mu retracted the sub-biological engine and stood there calmly, his eyes as calm as before.

After a brief moment of shock, Bai Ruoxue and her disciples gradually came back to their senses from the battle. As they watched the scene before them, they could not help but feel awe and gratitude for Qin Mu's strength. Although they already knew that Qin Mu was very powerful, they were still extremely shocked to see him kill dozens of powerful enemies alone.

"Mr. Qin, it's all thanks to you, otherwise we would..." Bai Ruoxue said gratefully, with a hint of fear in her voice.

Qin Mu shook his head slightly, his tone still calm: "Although the enemy has been repelled temporarily, we cannot let our guard down and must leave here as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were rapid footsteps in the woods. Qin Mu frowned slightly, knowing that the enemy's reinforcements had arrived. Although he had just dealt with most of the pursuers, the number of enemies was obviously more than that.

"Everyone follow me, we will go around the back mountain." Qin Mu immediately gave the order and led Bai Ruoxue and her disciples to quickly leave the battlefield and run towards the back mountain deep in the woods.

As they left, the atmosphere in the woods became increasingly tense. Men in black kept pouring in from a distance, trying to trap Qin Mu and the others in the woods. Qin Mu led everyone forward while constantly observing the surrounding terrain, looking for a suitable route to break out.

A few minutes later, they finally came to a steep cliff with dense vines growing on it, which seemed to be the only way to another exit. Qin Mu led everyone to climb without hesitation. Although the cliff was steep, he was agile and quickly led Bai Ruoxue and others over the cliff, successfully avoiding the enemy's encirclement.

When they reached the top of the cliff, the view below them suddenly became clear. In the distance was a vast valley with a winding path in the valley leading to the outside world. Qin Mu looked at the scene in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that they had finally escaped the enemy's pursuit.

Bai Ruoxue stood beside Qin Mu, looking into the distance, her heart full of expectations and uneasiness about the future. Although they had temporarily escaped from danger, the road to rebuilding the Frost Sect was still long and difficult. She knew that the powerful man in front of her would become the strongest backing for her and the Frost Sect.

"Mr. Qin, what should we do now?" Bai Ruoxue asked softly, with a hint of inquiry and dependence in her eyes.

Qin Mu turned around, looked at her, and said in a firm tone: "We must find a safe place to hide, and at the same time gather more like-minded people to fight against the powerful enemy together. It will take time to revive the Frost Sect, and we must buy more time."

Bai Ruoxue nodded in agreement, and then led the disciples to follow Qin Mu and headed towards the valley. Although the road ahead was difficult, they knew that as long as Qin Mu was there, they would not fight alone.

Qin Mu and Bai Ruoxue successfully escaped from the enemy's pursuit and temporarily found a hidden valley as a foothold. The valley was surrounded by high mountains, with a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which was a suitable place to hide temporarily. There was a clear stream in the valley, a few simple huts, and some wild herbs. It was obvious that someone had lived here before, but now it was empty.

Bai Ruoxue looked at this temporary shelter and felt a little comforted. She knew that although the crisis was temporarily resolved, the future of the Frost Sect was still undecided, and the burden of rebuilding the sect was on her shoulders. She took a deep breath and her eyes became firm.

"Mr. Qin, I plan to start gathering my fellow disciples who are still in the outside world. Only if we unite together can we rebuild the Frost Sect." Bai Ruoxue said in a firm tone, with determination in her eyes.

Qin Mu nodded in agreement: "This is the first step to revive the sect. We must find the surviving disciples and gather our strength again. What are your plans now?"

Bai Ruoxue pondered for a moment, then replied: "I remember that there were several fellow disciples in the sect who went out to travel. They were quite powerful and had their own connections. If we can find them, perhaps we can use their network of connections to gather the fellow disciples scattered all over the place."

"Okay, tell me the names of those people and their possible whereabouts, and I will assist you." Qin Mu's words were concise, and his tone was full of endless support.

Bai Ruoxue nodded, and immediately began to arrange some temporary protective measures in the valley, just in case. She asked several disciples to disperse, set up several simple cordons, and sent out sentinels to guard the entrance of the valley. At the same time, she herself began to sort out the roster of disciples within the sect, carefully recalling every fellow disciple who might still be outside.

After some thought, Bai Ruoxue listed several key names and told Qin Mu their possible whereabouts. The first person she thought of was her second senior brother Lin Xuan, who was one of the top swordsmen of the Frost School. He was good at ice-attributed swordsmanship and had been walking around the world for many years. He was quite famous. As far as she knew, Lin Xuan might be active in the southwest recently.

"Senior Brother Lin is one of the pillars of our Frost Sect. If we can find him, our strength will be greatly enhanced." Bai Ruoxue said with a firm look.

Qin Mu thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to look for Lin Xuan. You guys wait here for me, I'll bring him back as soon as possible."

Bai Ruoxue knew Qin Mu's strength and reliability, so she told him Lin Xuan's whereabouts without worry. Qin Mu wrote down the relevant clues, then set off lightly, heading southwest.

Meanwhile, Bai Ruoxue decided to go find the other two brothers on her own. The third brother Chen Yu and the fourth sister Liu Shuang were both important members of the Frost Sect. Chen Yu was good at formations and talismans, while Liu Shuang was proficient in medicine and poison. Bai Ruoxue knew that the two of them were inseparable and almost always acted together, so she decided to go to the northern region where they were last sent to find them in person.

She set out with two trusted fellow apprentices and set off on the road to the north. Along the way, she carefully avoided possible enemies while asking about the whereabouts of Chen Yu and Liu Shuang. She knew that time was running out and she had to gather her fellow disciples as soon as possible, otherwise the revival of the Frost Sect would be a long way off.

After several days of trekking, Bai Ruoxue finally arrived at a remote town. This was the last place she knew Chen Yu and Liu Shuang appeared. The town was not big, but because it was located in the middle of several big cities, there were many merchants coming and going, and the town was quite lively with people coming and going.

Bai Ruoxue walked on the main street of the town, constantly scanning the surroundings, trying to find familiar faces. However, the town was crowded with people, and it was not easy to find two people who had been missing for a long time. She decided to go to the inn in the town to inquire about the news.
