Wu Xia slammed hard onto the ground.
But he didn't immediately stand up; instead, he lay on the ground to catch his breath for quite a while before getting to his feet.
He clutched at his chest, coughing a few times, then lifted his head to gaze at the massive Ice and Snow Beast.
This Ice and Snow Beast was over two meters long, with blue skin and a layer of transparent scales that made it look incredibly fierce.
Its eyes were small, its nose bridge flat, and its lips thick, revealing two rows of white, sharp teeth whenever it opened its mouth.
At this moment, it was staring at Wu Xia, as if contemplating something.
Just then, a series of footsteps could be heard approaching.
A young man clad in silver-gray armor walked over.
In his hand was a golden halberd, carved with dragon patterns that made it look powerful and imposing.
The Guardian of the scepter.
"Intruding into the Ice and Snow Castle spells death!"
