After hearing his grandfather's instructions, Xiao Huzi responded and ran out.
Not long after, a tall, sturdy and strong old man walked in from the door, followed by Xiao Huzi.
"Grandpa, I called Grandpa Dian!!!"
Little Tiger said to the old man surnamed Cao as if seeking credit.
The old man surnamed Cao smiled gently and said, "Okay, Grandpa got it. You go and play first. Grandpa will buy you a string of candied haws later."
When he heard the word "tanghulu", a bright smile suddenly broke out on Xiaohuzi's face.
After smacking his lips, he looked at the old man surnamed Cao longingly, then turned around and ran out of the house.
The burly old man watched Little Tiger leave, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Little Tiger has grown up, you have lived a peaceful life these years well, right?"
Hearing this, the old man surnamed Cao sighed and said, “When I was still at the peak of my cultivation, I was out there year after year, and I almost never asked about the affairs of my wife and children.
When I came back after being injured, my wife, son, daughter-in-law and their whole family were all dead, leaving Xiaohu alone.
If it weren't for your help, Xiaohu would have starved to death long ago.
Although I am half useless, as long as I can raise little Tiger to adulthood, I will be satisfied."
The burly old man nodded, closed the door casually, and walked into the inner room with the old man.
After sitting down, the burly old man asked, "Lao Cao, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Upon hearing this, the old man surnamed Cao suddenly became serious and said, "Someone must want to go there and asked me about the location of Tianyue Glacier."
Hearing what the old man surnamed Cao said, the burly old man's expression changed and said, "Are you sure
Who is it? Could it be someone from that mysterious organization?"
The old man surnamed Cao frowned and said, "I don't know if he is related to that mysterious organization. This guy looks very young and was brought here by Lao Ding.
Lao Ding didn't know the situation, so he brought the person over.
I could only tell him the location of the Tianyue Glacier. After all, even if I didn't tell him, he would surely be able to find out. Many of the old hunters who went in and out of the snowy area all year round knew the location of the glacier.
After I told him the location of the glacier, he would definitely go to the glacier. If that was his goal, I estimated that he would go there in the near future.
Call Xiahou and let’s go back there.
If the other party's target is really there, we will take the opportunity to eliminate him."
Hearing what the old man surnamed Cao said, the burly old man frowned and said, "The mysterious organization has been trying to find our holy land, but they have never found any clues and never knew that our holy land is near the Tianyue Glacier.
This news is quite secretive, and there are not many people in the world who know about it. Are you sure that the person you met went to Tianyue Glacier for our Holy Land?"
The old man surnamed Cao hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't be completely sure, but I feel it is very likely.
He had responded to my reminder about the ice tomb before, and judging from his response, he definitely wanted to go to the ice tomb area.
The holy land is in the ice tomb. There is an 80 to 90 percent chance that this guy is going to the holy land.
In recent years, the only people who have been looking for our holy land are those from that mysterious organization, and their goal is to obtain the Tianmu Spirit Fruit.
The spiritual treasure must not fall into the hands of this mysterious organization. I got into this mysterious organization at the cost of serious injuries, and I know that the purpose of their existence is to destroy the world.
I will never allow this to happen. It doesn’t matter if I die, but Xiaohu is still young and has a long way to go. I can’t let him not even have a chance to live into the future!!!”
If Ye Li were here at this moment, he would definitely be able to hear that the mysterious organization the old man surnamed Cao was talking about was the Tianhun Society.
The burly old man said, “In recent years, the guy from the mysterious organization has always suspected that I know the location of the holy land and has tried to test me many times.
If they were allowed to obtain the Heavenly Wood Spiritual Fruit, a semi-saint master would appear among them, which would be a terrible thing for the entire world."
The old man surnamed Cao said, "That's right, so we have to go back. The defense of the holy land can only be effective when we are here!!!"
The burly old man looked at the old man surnamed Cao and said with some embarrassment: "Old Cao, don't go back this time. Xiahou and I can go back alone. You have lost most of your cultivation now. If something happens, what will happen to Xiaohuzi?"
The old man surnamed Cao hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head and said, "No, I am the only one who knows many of the secrets in the Holy Land. You and Xiahou will not be able to do many things if you go back.
Although my personal strength has been damaged, as long as I am in the holy land, I can bring out the full defensive capabilities of the holy land.
I have saved a lot of spirit stones for Little Tiger, and I have told Lao Ding some things. If I don’t come back this time, Lao Ding will help me take care of Little Tiger and train him into a talent.”
Hearing what the old man surnamed Cao said and looking at his determined eyes, the burly old man sighed and said, "You are the last high priest of the Mu Ling clan, and only you can fully control the holy land of the Mu Ling clan.
If it is really the people from the mysterious organization who want to enter the holy land this time, it would be difficult to stop the enemy with just the strength of me and Xiahou.
But don't worry, the two of us will protect you no matter what. We are all alone and have no children. You still have little Tiger to raise, so we won't let you die easily."
The old man surnamed Cao and the burly old man looked at each other, and their eyes were complicated.
"Come on, go call Xia Hou over. We are ready to set off. If they are really members of the mysterious organization, they will definitely send people over in the near future. We must arrive before them."
The old man surnamed Cao urged the burly old man.
The burly old man straightened his mind, immediately stood up and left the house.
The old man surnamed Cao listened to the laughter of little Tiger playing outside the house, and the expression between his brows became more complicated.
… … … … … …
Ye Li has already left Galan City and entered the snowy area.
His speed was much faster than the old man surnamed Cao had expected. After all, the old man surnamed Cao had never thought that Ye Li would go alone. In his opinion, Ye Li was so young and his strength must not be too strong.
Without strong strength, it is impossible for someone to go deep into the snowy area or even into the ice tomb alone.
So Ye Li would definitely contact other people and go there together with a group of people, or it could be said that Ye Li was just gathering information for the Tianhun Society, and the people who actually went to the Ice Tomb were other masters of the Tianhun Society.
However, his judgment was completely wrong. Ye Li had already embarked on the journey to Tianyue Glacier at the fastest speed.
