Chapter 397: Entering the Extreme North, Cute Bunny, Extra Spicy!
The next live broadcast is actually three months later?
In the live broadcast room, when everyone saw that the next live broadcast would be in three months, many soul masters and soul master factions couldn't help but feel excited.
This was because, based on past experience, live broadcasts with a six-month gap usually showed events happening far in the future, and the questions were generally very difficult.
But a three-month or one-month gap between broadcasts is much more favorable.
Especially a one-month gap, where the events shown were usually recent and could be found in history books.
A three-month gap meant that the live broadcast would cover events in the near future, and the questions posed would likely be relatively simpler.
It was a pleasant surprise to learn that the next live Q&A would be in three months.
This greatly increased the hope of winning a reward!
As many people in the live broadcast room felt overjoyed, Yu Xiaogang in the City of Slaughter also felt the same excitement.
…
After the live broadcast ended, Lin Yu left the room.
Later, after resting for a day with Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er in Extreme North City and preparing the necessary supplies for their journey to the Extreme North, Lin Yu set out with the two women to head toward the Extreme North.
Once they left Extreme North City, the surroundings were almost deserted, with no signs of human activity.
Only occasionally, when passing through some forests, could they spot small settlements with taverns, shops, and people, but aside from that, there were no other signs of life.
Lin Yu suspected that these settlements might be located near Soul Hunting Forests, explaining the presence of these settlements.
Otherwise, there would be no way to explain why there were any signs of human habitation here.
After all, if the area around Extreme North City was still somewhat arable, once they moved farther north, the land became frozen and completely uncultivable.
Without arable land, there is no food production.
Coupled with the harsh climate, without external food and product supplies, no human could survive in such a place for long.
However, after continuing to travel north with Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, the small settlements disappeared after a few days and they could no longer be seen.
The climate worsened further as they moved on.
In Extreme North City, the temperature was around minus ten degrees, and when they passed the settlements near the Soul Hunting Forest, the temperature was still below minus twenty degrees.
In these temperatures, ordinary people could still manage if they kept warm.
But now, the temperature had dropped to minus thirty to forty degrees.
In such cold, only soul masters could survive; ordinary people could no longer live in such an environment.
And if only soul masters could survive here, it was clear that no settlements with people would be formed.
After all, soul masters are mostly elites and wouldn't engage in production work.
The farther north they went, closer to the Extreme North, the longer the snow lasted each day, and the thicker the snow on the ground. By the time they reached the Extreme North, the snow would be so deep that one's legs would sink into it up to the knees.
In such an environment, even soul masters, if unprepared with proper equipment like skis for walking on snow, would find it difficult to travel.
But Lin Yu, of course, was well-prepared.
Upon reaching the outskirts of the Extreme North, seeing how thick the snow on the ground was, Lin Yu instructed Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er to take out their skis.
The three of them hopped onto the skis, holding poles to propel themselves, and began their journey through the endless snow pine forests, heading deeper into the Extreme North.
Time passed, and soon another day had gone by.
However, after a whole day of travel, the three of them still hadn't made it through the vast snow pine forest. They had no choice but to set up camp in the forest and continue their journey the next day.
"Alright, Bing'er, Yue'er, go gather some firewood. I'll go hunt for some game."
After finding a place to set up camp, Lin Yu immediately told Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er to gather firewood, while he went off hunting.
Using his speed and the power of his Double Pupils martial soul, Lin Yu quickly caught a few plump snow rabbits and returned to the camp.
By this time, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er had also gathered a pile of firewood, which was placed outside the tent.
But it was so cold that the two girls were bundled up in thick clothes, wearing snow hats, their little faces reddened by the cold, and they were hiding inside the tent rubbing their hands to warm up.
"Lin Yu, you're back?"
When Shui Yue'er saw Lin Yu return, she immediately smiled and ran out to greet him.
"Ah! Are we eating these tonight? These cute little rabbits... Isn't it a bit cruel to eat them? Can we have something else..."
After joyfully running over to Lin Yu, Shui Yue'er realized that Lin Yu had caught a few adorable little bunnies and felt a little guilty.
After all, she couldn't bear to harm such cute little animals.
Hearing Shui Yue'er's words, Lin Yu couldn't help but twitch his mouth slightly.
"Bunnies are cute, but don't eat them!" He had always thought that people who said such things clearly weren't hungry. If they were, they'd definitely want it extra spicy!
Though he inwardly complained, Lin Yu had long expected Shui Yue'er's reaction and immediately replied, "The bunnies are already dead. We must eat them; we can't let their bodies go to waste."
"It's for our stomachs, so we must honor them. Otherwise, we might be the ones who are killed next."
After hearing that the bunnies were already dead, Shui Yue'er felt a little sad, but she quickly accepted Lin Yu's reasoning.
Actually, Shui Yue'er wasn't a staunch animal lover; it was just her girlish nature that led her to say that. So Lin Yu's explanation quickly convinced her.
However, Shui Yue'er's brief sadness didn't last long.
When Lin Yu used Red Lotus Karma Fire to light the firewood and roast the snow rabbits, then sprinkled seasoning including cumin for grilling, Shui Yue'er's eyes lit up as she tasted the roasted snow rabbit.
She instantly switched from the "Bunnies are cute" camp to the "Bunnies are cute but better spicy" camp.
In fact, Shui Yue'er ate three of the five snow rabbits Lin Yu had caught and still felt like it wasn't enough. She hugged Lin Yu's arm and spoiled him, asking him to catch more snow rabbits the next time he went hunting.
Hearing this, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but twitch her mouth in disbelief.
It was lucky that the snow rabbits went to heaven early; otherwise, if any surviving snow rabbits saw her "shameless" change of heart, they'd probably be so mad they'd faint.
How can someone flip-flop so quickly!
Just a moment ago, she was sad, and now she's begging for extra spice to make them even better!
