Chapter 145: Ice Snow Witch and the Snow White Squad

A gust of cool breeze blew by.

The pale hairs on the fair forehead fluttered slightly, the ashen face tinged with a strange reddish hue.

A small yet unusually firm chest heaved with a few sharp breaths.

The gaze gradually hardened into resolve.

Bai Xue stepped forward.

The white magical robe suddenly billowed, rustling loudly.

A strong elemental surge gradually ignited.

"Bai Xue!" "Bai Xue~!?"

Two cries of surprise rang out in succession.

Ge Lei Te and Han Sai Er, the brother‑sister pair, stared at Bai Xue with utter shock.

Although Bai Xue seemed composed and the elemental surge kept skyrocketing, it was all premised on unlocking potential.

Putting aside whether unlocking potential would let her defeat that Level One Bug Race leader, the very act of unlocking potential could cause such a severe aftereffect that Bai Xue might not survive this Plane Invasion war.

That is something no one wants to see.

"No, you all run, I'll hold them off, otherwise everyone will die!" Bai Xue's eyes were unusually resolute.

She lifted her head and puffed her chest; the tenderness on her face gradually turned into hardness.

She lifted her foot and stepped forward slightly.

She blocked the way in front of everyone.

"No, we must go, everyone go together~!" Ge Lei Te, eyes brimming with hot tears, also strode forward.

Han Sai Er and the others, seeing this, exchanged glances for a moment, then silently stepped forward, their gazes turning resolute.

"You~!?"

Bai Xue turned back in astonishment; her shocked pupils softened, showing a trace of emotion toward the others.

"Fine! Then let this place become their burial ground," Bai Xue nodded and said.

But everyone knew this place might also become their own burial ground.

The group's momentum condensed, quickly forming a defensive formation; just as the clash loomed, a white figure flashed by.

"Roar~!!"

"Boom~!" A surge of air rose, and the ground cracked widely.

A chill ran through everyone's hearts; focusing their eyes, they saw the Demon Hunter Knight leader, the Ice Snow Witch Freya's mount, a Frost Giant Bear.

Its massive, muscular body unleashed tremendous explosive power while running; each half‑meter‑wide paw, when it struck the ground, raised a puff of shockwave.

Its momentum was like a rainbow; in the short term its explosive force was astonishing, not at all inferior to the speed‑renowned Green Blade Bug Race.

With a deafening roar, its massive maw gaped wide; a foul wind blew, and snarling fangs dripping with a few strands of saliva spewed blood‑foam and bits of flesh.

The Level One Bug Race leader, clearly caught off guard, hastily raised his Green Blade to block, only to have the Frost Giant Bear snap the blade in its jaws.

Sparks flew in all directions.

—Clang!

The Green Blade's cold edge flashed, swiftly withdrawn.

At the same time, seizing the moment the Level One Bug Race's body stiffened, the massive bear claw descended.

"Boom~!!" A green blur flashed and slammed onto the ground.

Before the Frost Giant Bear could strike again, a sudden wing‑flap sounded, and the green blur flashed, swift as lightning.

"Boom~"

The ground trembled; dust billowed as a pit several meters wide opened, its fissures spreading across the earth.

Just as Bai Xue and the others were stunned by the sudden turn, a cold, stern voice rang out nearby.

"Little girl, aren't you going to disperse the secret technique quickly?"

A slender, delicate jade hand rested on Bai Xue's tender shoulder; magical energy surged, and in the blink of an eye, it forcibly suppressed the violently boiling elemental currents within her.

"Ice Snow Witch!"

Bai Xue and the others were startled, all turning toward the source of the voice.

A woman clad in silver armor hovered three feet above the ground, standing atop a crest of icy waves. As the ice spread recklessly, in an instant, accompanied by waves of chilling cold, the Ice Snow Witch arrived among them, placing her pristine finger on Bai Xue's shoulder and forcibly suppressing the secret technique.

Freya's expression remained cold, ignoring the others' astonishment. With a wave of her hand, shadows slipped in from all sides; looking around, there were two Demon Hunter Knights charging toward the opposing bug swarm.

Clearly, Freya had heard the commotion here, pursued, and arrived just in time to rescue Bai Xue and the others.

"Thank you, Ice Snow Witch, for lending a hand," Bai Xue and the others replied gratefully.

Freya first gave the group a quick glance, her expression indifferent as she nodded, then turned toward the battle formation.

Facing Freya's icy demeanor, the others were unsurprised; after all, when the Ice Snow Witch first met the Golden Witch Ravenna, she behaved the same way.

They say the two are actually sisters.

At that moment, a suffocatingly powerful elemental current rose in the sky, and surrounding elemental particles surged wildly toward some point in the heavens.

Moments later, a blood‑red full moon suddenly emerged amid the group's gasps.

A faint glow descended, and a crimson beam instantly enveloped the battlefield.

The green bug swarm, locked in combat with the Demon Hunter Knights, froze instantly, fear flashing in their eyes.

But within moments, as the others' confusion rose, crimson tiny creatures burst forth from various parts of those Green Blade bugs.

The scene was extremely brutal.

Looking at the fallen, instantly dead bug swarm, and the small blood‑colored beings ranging from a few centimeters to several tens of centimeters.

They shouted, their silhouettes charging toward the surroundings.

Startled, everyone looked up at the sky together.

"It's him~!"

A faint murmuring slipped from Freya's gently parting red lips.

A flash of bewilderment crossed her eyes.

Then another complex emotion rose.

Instinctively she reached toward her abdomen, that slightly raised arc.

"Boom~!!"

The earth shook, mountains trembled, and trees kept falling.

A massive green figure crashed down not far from them.

Its overwhelming might and powerful aura were enough to show that it was one of the invading Bug Race leaders.

From the communication crystal they produced, the arranged mission list, and the enemy intelligence roster, it was immediately identified that the opponent was the invading Bug King: Beerus.

Faced with such an exhilarating scene, everyone showed excitement, believing that the fall of Bug King Beerus would surely mark the beginning of the Plane War's victory.

Such a thrilling event could not fail to uplift them.

But only Freya seemed somewhat out of place in the crowd.

As Bug King Beerus lay gravely wounded and near death, the scales of victory indeed began to tip.

But could it really be that simple!?

……

A figure flashing with a blood‑tinged aura suddenly materialized within Bai Xue and others' field of view.

It was a handsome young man clad in black armor, his posture upright, his slightly wavy black hair exceedingly flowing.

His handsome face was chiseled like a blade‑carved sculpture, his brows and eyes sparkling like stars.

A massive, powerful aura enveloped him, causing those present to feel a deep unease as their hearts raced.

Yet, when facing this person, both Bai Xue and the Ge Lei Te siblings wore excited expressions.

And the two Blood Race warriors even knelt on the ground, offering their loyalty to him.

This person was undoubtedly Fulade.

He seemed to sense the gazes of the crowd.

Fulade walked toward the figure of Bug King Beerus, paused, and looked at the crowd.

The first sight that met his eyes was the members of Bai Xue's squad.

Years passed quickly for Fulade; having spent most of that time in the laboratory, he was momentarily stunned upon first seeing Bai Xue and the others.

Now that he thought about it, the little girls had actually grown into a graceful young lady.

Just as Fulade sighed, his gaze swept around, and suddenly his body tensed as he suddenly blurted, "Freya!"
