"Take refuge," Xia Ji replied casually.
"Okay, then you can stay here in peace."
Then, the Ice Lotus Princess started chatting again. She felt that this mysterious man was full of power. If she missed the chance to become friends with him, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Strangely, they encountered two groups of deserters along the way.

The carriage stopped.
In the fortress, a few officers came to welcome them.
The Ice Lotus Princess was helped out of the carriage, and Xia Ji followed her up the high wall.
The wall was several thousand feet wide and was made of large bluestone.
The cold wind was piercing to the bones. Even if someone kept walking, the frost and snow on the wall were still compressed into sporadic ice. If they accidentally stepped on it, it was very likely that they would fall to the ground with their armor.
On this pass, the only warm color was the evenly placed braziers.
