So what? Does it have anything to do with you? The person on the palanquin opened his eyes and glared at Li Qingniu.

Seeing his frail body and simple clothing, he was obviously a foolish kid who had just come from a remote village who had never seen the world before. His eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of disdain.

Li Qingniu did not care about them anymore, and turned to the sedan men: "Why aren't you resisting?" Although he was not a chivalrous hero, and his concept of good and evil was still vague, he still hated those acts of arrogance from the bottom of his heart.

Moreover, he did not understand why these people wanted to listen to him. Even though they knew there was only death in front of them, they did not dare to resist at all.

Hearing his words, the sedan bearers looked at each other in dismay. Their eyes were filled with panic and bewilderment.

This was undoubtedly a bold question that they had never thought of.

Resistance? Hahahaha... My family spent money to buy them, and their lives are mine, and they have been for generations. Do you know what happens to those who resist their masters? Be my slave, and I'll tell you, hahahaha.

After hearing what he said, the sedan bearers all lowered their heads, the question that Li Qingniu asked in their hearts stirred them up a bit, but at that moment, it was calm again.

There was a strict system of slavery in the Star Continent, and it was one of the few common systems that traversed all the empires in the entire continent.

If any slave dared to rebel against their master, their family would be severely punished, and no matter where they escaped to, they would be wanted by the entire continent.

If some slaves performed well and won the hearts of their masters, as long as their masters issued a relevant certificate, they would be freed from their slavery status and become equal from then on.

But if there was an example of resistance to the master, then he and his descendants would forever lose the right to be equal, and no one would be able to free him from slavery.

Li Qingniu originally did not want to meddle in other people's business, but on one hand, it was true that he could not bear to see the young master around, and on the other hand, he was following Mister's suggestion to understand more about human nature.

However, he discovered that the more he got to know them, the more he didn't understand what was going on in their minds. While he was still in a daze, a big fellow walked over and pushed him aside, "If there's nothing else, then step aside. Don't waste our young master's time."

After the procession passed in front of them, the big sized man sighed quietly and whispered into Li Qingniu's ears: "Little brother, there are some things that not just anyone can take care of.

After saying that, the man patted his shoulder, turned around and chased after the group, gradually disappearing into the wind and snow.

Human nature is so complicated.

Yes, that's why I'm telling you to observe, pay attention, and think more. The Sword Spirit said with a smile.

I know, but against bad guys, isn't killing them with one palm?

However, at times, bad people would pretend to be good people, and those who looked like bad people might actually be good people. At this point, one needed to analyze the human nature of the situation to determine the full story.

Just then, Murong Lanyu ran over. Brother Li, let's go.

After bidding farewell to Fang Tong and the others, the two of them led the Snow Wolf deeper into the glacier.

The weather in the glacier was very bad not only because of the 10,000 kilometers of ice, but also because of the endless amount of snow and wind inside the glacier.

Furthermore, the deeper one went, the greater the snowstorm became. In some places, one could only see white fog when they were less than three feet apart.

Murong Lanyu followed behind Li Qingniu and held his arm tightly, as if she was afraid that if she let go, Li Qingniu would disappear.

Because she was too nervous, she did not notice that Li Qingniu's arm was pressed tightly against his chest because she was holding it too tightly.

It didn't matter much anyway since she wasn't in the mood to pay attention to these matters. However, for Li Qingniu, the situation was different. Even in this world of ice and snow, he could still feel the warmth from his arm, and every time Murong Lanyu hugged him tightly because of his nervousness, he felt a soft sensation from his arm.

This was a very mysterious feeling, and he did not know how to describe it. He only knew that this feeling made his breathing quicken, and his heartbeat also seemed to accelerate.

Even in a match where he was fighting the Grandpa Quezi, who could run faster and further, he had never felt his heart beating so fast.

All in all, this feeling was very strange to him. This made him want to quickly end this feeling while at the same time wishing that more time would pass.

They walked for who knows how long and how far, feeling both awkward and conflicted at the same time. However, seeing that the sky was about to turn dark and Murong Lanyu's stamina was also almost depleted, the two decided to first find a place to hide for the night. Tomorrow morning, they would continue their search.

The two of them found a hole in the ice at the leeward side of the wind, protected from the wind and snow.

Perhaps because she was really tired, Murong Lanyu casually ate a few mouthfuls before lying down to rest.

However, because the four sides of the cave was filled with Ice Wall s and it was too cold, Li Qingniu had a deep foundation and a physique that was different from an ordinary person's, so he did not feel anything. However, even though Murong Lanyu's body was covered with a thick fur, he was still cold and shivering.

Is there any way to keep the Sword Spirit warm?

Yes, it's fine as long as you carry Miss Murong in your arms. This way, even if you warm her, she will also warm her. The Sword Spirit said jokingly.

Li Qingniu did not seem to realize that the Mr. Jian was teasing him on purpose and actually frowned. With a troubled expression on his face, he said. Isn't that a little inappropriate? Grandma Long said...

Alright, alright, stop saying it Grandma Long. I can already hear the cocoon, I'm just teasing you.

Do you know how boring that routine was in the endless years?

Looking at Mr. Jian who was giving his all, Li Qingniu shook his head: Let's hurry up and tell me how to heat up, I can see that Miss Lanyu is almost unable to hold on.

Alright, I'll teach you sooner or later anyway. Do you know of any other way for a swordsman to attack or defend?

I don't know. Li Qingniu replied very straightforwardly and sincerely.

To him, knowing was knowing, not knowing was not knowing, so there was no need to consider further.

It's like your answer. Mr. Jian sighed, and said: Swords use moves and sword mastery to directly face off against the opponent, and there is another type of skill that mainly prevents attacks as support, and is both offense and defense, and is called Sword Formation.

The Sword Formation took the sword as its heart, and with its ever-changing forms, according to the swordsman's cultivation and the differences in luck, one could arrange countless different types of arrays, allowing them to attack and defend.

It is commonly used in defence, especially in places where precious treasures are placed. When someone approached or touched the mechanism, the Sword Formation would activate and attack the intruder.

However, the maintenance of the Sword Formation not only required the exquisite layout of the sword user, but also required the attraction of spirit energy, in order for the Sword Formation to be effective at all times for a very long time.

Everything in the world that had spiritual energy could be used as a body attraction. After being arranged into a Sword Formation, the stronger the spiritual energy, the more powerful the Sword Formation would be, and the longer it could be maintained.

Right now, I will first teach you the most basic 'Energy Concentration Formation' in the Sword Formation. If you can use this array skillfully, when you've trained to a critical point and need a large amount of energy to maintain it, you will be able to form a formation to protect yourself from Qi deviation and other situations that require energy. He must be tempted! Mr. Jian proudly introduced.

Can this array keep you warm? Li Qingniu asked seriously.

Can't you be a little excited after all I've told you?

But I have a lot of time to learn Sword Formation, so I should first think of a way to help the Miss Lanyu warm up. Li Qingniu said as he looked at Murong Lanyu who was lying there with her eyes closed and her shoulders trembling non-stop.

I really lost to you. Don't you know that the basis of heat is energy? When you gather enough energy, don't even mention heating up, you can melt this snow-capped mountain even if you want to.

Then tell me what to do. After hearing that the energy gathering array could warm up, Li Qingniu immediately asked.

Do you have anything with spiritual energy on you?

Spiritual Qi object … There is a Gold Spirit Stone!

Ha ha-ha ha, the Gold Spirit Stone's spirit energy is extremely strong, if I just use it to warm myself, I would be able to see the effect of it in a moment. First, I want to take out the Eight Gold Spirit Stone, and then we can arrange it according to my directions.

Li Qingniu followed the method the Mr. Jian told him and threw the Gold Spirit Stone that was wrapped in his Innate Qi to eight different directions.

Because it was wrapped with true energy, it did not emit any sound, and then it turned the Golden Sword in its body into a physical entity, floating above the Formation Aperture.

Then, the Eight Gold Spirit Stone flew up and hovered in the air. The cave was immediately filled with warmth.

Li Qingniu also noticed that the only place where the warm feeling was felt was in the area surrounded by the Eight Gold Spirit Stone.

Seeing that Murong Lanyu's brows, which were knitted tightly because of the discomfort, finally relaxed, Li Qingniu could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

He promised Fang Tong that he would take good care of Murong Lanyu and ensure her safety.

If he let Murong Lan Yu freeze his body to death on the first day he entered the glacier, then forget about Fang Tong's promise, even he himself would feel bad.

Although he couldn't say the reason, when he was facing Murong Lanyu and Gu Ruoqing, he inexplicably had the feeling that he didn't want them to receive any harm.

Was this the kind of love that Mr. Jian had mentioned before?

As Li Qingniu thought about this, he unknowingly entered into a meditative state. Just as he was about to lose consciousness, countless rays of golden light shot out from his body.

This golden light was first absorbed by the Eight Gold Spirit Stone floating in midair, then released by the Gold Spirit Stone a moment later, and then absorbed back into Li Qingniu's body.
