As they spoke, Qin Fang fixed his gaze on the direction of the distant grand hall, fully utilizing his Traceless Snow Stepping Technique, and rushed over at an extremely fast speed.

The Snow Ferret accompanied Qin Fang, transforming into a rapid phantom. Although it could run faster than Qin Fang, it consistently kept pace with him.

Sometimes, when it was bored, it would leap onto Qin Fang's shoulder, letting him carry it forward in a fast dash.

"I wonder if my buddies have found anything?"

On the road, Qin Fang couldn't help but think to himself.

By considering his own gains, Qin Fang realized he had made quite a significant profit, and naturally, he hoped the other brothers wouldn't have worse luck.

Since Qin Fang discovered the four Godslaying Worms, he knew there couldn't be anyone in this secret location; no one could escape the Godslaying Worms' pursuit...

Qin Fang even thought that the major faction abandoned this place because of these Godslaying Worms...

There were no people in this secret location, but quite a few treasures had been left behind. Only Qin Fang and his companions entered to plunder; it would be a waste not to find some good things.

This secret location is a world unto itself and is quite large; even with Qin Fang's speed, it took nearly twenty minutes before he could vaguely see the rows of long-abandoned buildings.

With a simple scan using his Scouting Skill, Qin Fang found that these buildings had been abandoned for ages, but the unique environment of this locale hadn't severely damaged them. Some buildings have stood for a thousand years and still remain upright...

The grand hall that Qin Fang and his companions agreed to meet at was possibly the most majestic of this architectural ensemble. Though it has nine hundred years of history and some slight damage, its main structure remains solid...

In ancient times, although they didn't have modern construction machinery, equipment, or materials, the ancients worked hard to ensure building quality, certainly more reliable than those greedy developers today...

"Is everyone here?"

Before Qin Fang arrived, his mini-map already showed several figures, indicating that the others had arrived early and were waiting for his return.

"Who goes there?"

As Qin Fang approached, Ji Xiang uttered a low shout, accompanied by the sound of him handling a gun, almost locking onto Qin Fang, who was quickly moving.

Swoosh~~

Just as Qin Fang was about to speak, the Snow Ferret on his shoulder seemed to sense Ji Xiang's powerful killing intent, instantly transforming into a swift shadow, darting straight toward Ji Xiang.

While moving rapidly, the Snow Ferret immediately extended its claws, slightly opened its mouth, revealing sharp teeth that glimmered with a chilling cold light!

"Hold it!"

Seeing this scene, Qin Fang was startled and quickly shouted, his anxiety evident.

"Uh..."

Ji Xiang paused slightly, lowering his gun somewhat, realizing it was Qin Fang, and instantly curbing his hostility.

The Snow Ferret also paused in mid-air, now quite close to Ji Xiang, likely capable of reaching him with one more lunge.

But hearing Qin Fang's shout, coupled with Ji Xiang's retracted killing intent, it refrained from attacking…Ji Xiang was fortunate to have spared his life.

Still, the Snow Ferret did not hurry away, but stared intently at Ji Xiang with its cute little eyes; it seemed ready to launch a fierce attack if anything seemed off.

Ji Xiang and the others certainly noticed the sudden appearance of the Snow Ferret; though small and seemingly harmless, he wouldn't underestimate it.

Just moments ago, as the Snow Ferret nearly approached him, Ji Xiang felt a chilling sensation on his back; the intense sense of crisis almost exceeded the pressure from encountering a Grandmaster-level Expert, perhaps even stronger...

And this sense of crisis indeed came from the seemingly harmless little animal before him!

Luckily, Qin Fang had arrived by now.

Though his speed was slower than the Snow Ferret, it wasn't by much, especially after sensing Ji Xiang's danger, he sped up and arrived almost in sync with the Snow Ferret.

"Damn, you finally showed up!"

Seeing Qin Fang appear, Ji Xiang couldn't help but curse, as if they had been waiting for him for a long time.

But as Ji Xiang was about to walk over to Qin Fang, he was surprised to find that as he was about to step forward, the Snow Ferret immediately showed a faintly vicious light in its eyes, even posing as if ready to attack...

This startled Ji Xiang, causing him to retract his step, and his expression showed embarrassment, revealing a bit of awkwardness.
