"What's wrong, Boss?" As Mo Wen suddenly picked him up while he was engrossed in a storybook, Xiao Hei instinctively tensed up, scanning the surroundings. There seemed to be no danger, and looking at Boss Mo, although anxious, he wore a smile.
"I'm taking you to witness the Heavenly Tribulation." Last time, when he faced the tribulation, Xiao Hei was left in the small cabin, so this time he could only bring him along.
"Heavenly Tribulation? Where did this come from? Boss! Are you going to face the tribulation?" Hearing Mo Wen mention Heavenly Tribulation, Xiao Hei was momentarily taken aback. Last time, Boss Mo had left him alone in the cabin, so he missed witnessing the grandeur of his battle against the Heavenly Tribulation.
"This time, you'll see how I fight against the Heavenly Tribulation!" Despite saying that, he remembered how badly he had been beaten during his last tribulation. This time would likely not be any easier, but he had confidence in his foundation; the stronger it was, the smoother the tribulation would be. The only issue was that there was no one to act as his Guardian.
"Boss, isn't it customary to have someone as a Guardian during a tribulation?" Remembering his master's words made Xiao Hei anxious. He also had to face a tribulation someday, but that was still far off. His master had instructed him to always find someone to act as a Guardian. Now, seeing Boss Mo like this, it didn’t seem like he had anyone as a Guardian.
"I need to get used to doing things without support." This was a concern that Mo Wen had considered. Old Lu had also mentioned that it was best to have someone as a Guardian during a tribulation to prevent any ill-intentioned individuals from interfering. Right now, there was no time to find someone, and besides Xiao Hei, there was no one else he trusted here. Furthermore, he couldn't always rely on others; he had to walk his own path.
Across from the inn, in a tavern, Wang Chi and his companion were still drinking. They had been watching for half a month but hadn’t seen He Er Gou. Long Xiao Wu, feeling somewhat dejected, stood up to look at the inn across the street.
"Boss Wang! That kid is trying to escape!" Seeing Mo Wen rush out of the inn, Long Xiao Wu excitedly shouted at Wang Chi. Their target appeared hurried and anxious to leave.
"What’s the rush? Have we been discovered?" Hearing Long Xiao Wu, Wang Chi also stood up. Looking at how hurriedly Mo Wen was moving, it didn’t seem like he had noticed them. Over the past few days, they had changed disguises several times to avoid being spotted. "Let’s go! Follow him!"
"Aren't we going to report this to the Prime Minister?" Long Xiao Wu, timid and apprehensive, thought of the supreme authority of the Xiang Guo. He believed they should just follow orders from the Prime Minister.
"We'll see how it goes. Have you forgotten what Xiang Guo said? That He Er Gou has a master with formidable strength. If we report without confirming whether his master is around and then encounter him when Xiang Guo arrives, we’ll be in trouble," Wang Chi glared at Long Xiao Wu. This guy was such a coward. "Besides, if we can capture this He Er Gou and hand him over to Xiang Guo, that reward could help both of us break through two realms."
"This..."
"Stop hesitating! Trust me; I wouldn’t lead you astray. We’ll share whatever fortune comes our way. Come on, keep close; he’s our big payday." Seeing that Long Xiao Wu was still hesitant, Wang Chi grew impatient and pulled him along.
Once they left Cold Ice City, Mo Wen plunged into the wilderness. Unlike places like Yinzhou, which were filled with dense forests, the cold region where Cold Ice City was located had relatively few trees even in the wild. The ground was covered in white snow; for facing a tribulation, there was no need for a specific location—just somewhere sparsely populated would suffice.
