Perhaps this clone of Ge Da Tian had a slightly different personality, but he was one sleepy god . His eyes were still closed when Wei Xiao Bei summoned him, and he questioned him with an unamused expression .

Before he could speak, the clone said, “Hmm? The air here is pretty good . Let me take a look . ”

A red light shone out of the clone’s eyes as he looked around him . Even Wei Xiao Bei shut his mouth to not disturb the clone .

When he retracted the red light, the clone let out a gasp of surprise, “Could this be the Sky-Climbing Vine? No, it doesn’t seem like it . ” Ge Da Tian’s clone mumbled to himself .

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t keep silent any longer . He spoke up, “Old Ge, this isn’t the Sky-Climbing Vine . It’s the World Tree . Yup, it’s the divine tree of another civilization . ”

He knew a bit about the Sky-Climbing Vine that Ge Da Tian’s clone was speaking of . It was said that this Sky-Climbing Vine was one of the paths that connected heaven and earth in ancient China .

In truth, many races of people had similar divine objects that reached into the skies . Apart from the Sky-Climbing Vine, China also had Mount Buzhou, known as the sky pillar that connected heaven and earth .

The Tower of Babel recorded in the Bible was one such structure as well .

The World Tree could be considered as such as well .

Ge Da Tian finally came to after hearing Wei Xiao Bei’s words . He looked at him, “What’s the matter? Why did you summon this god? ”

He ignored the rudeness of this clone . It was a clone anyway . Once its energy was exhausted, he will just ask Ge Da Tian for another one .

He then explained his plan . In essence, he wanted to know how he could bring Kashmir and Babe back to the real world with him .

After all, from his perspective, if even Zhao Yun could have Zhao Guang follow him back to reality, these two should be able to do so as well . He simply didn’t know the method to do so .

“Bring these two monsters back to the mortal realm?”

Ge Da Tian’s clone wasn’t being kind with his words .

That said, Kashmir and Babe could truly be considered as monsters in front of a Chinese deity like Ge Da Tian .

If you weren’t a human, then you were a monster .

Kashmir was a fairy, not a human .

Babe was a Swan Maiden who could turn into a swan . She wasn’t human either .

“Just the cost of bringing the little monster back with you is far more than what you can bear . ”

Ge Da Tian then shook his head and pointed at Babe, “This monster is a descendant of a god of a different race . The cost of bringing it back to China’s mortal realm is far greater . ”

Wei Xiao Bei pouted slightly . Monster, monster, monster . This clone’s way of thinking was far too outdated .

In the end, regardless of what he had to say, the clone refused to explain what the method was . In the end, it simply turned into white smoke and entered his head again, vanishing without a trace while leaving one last word of warning .

It was, “Once you reach the level you need to be at, you will naturally know . ”

Wei Xiao Bei understood what the clone meant . He simply didn’t have enough power now . Knowing the method of bringing them back will only invite more trouble .

He had no choice but to temporarily cancel his plans of bringing Kashmir and Babe back to the real world . He found a small lake somewhat far away from the Bifrost on the canopy . The environment here was excellent . There were water and plants . At the very least, they wouldn’t starve to death .

Moreover, this place was quite far from the Bifrost . Even if there were monsters or humans like himself who went to the Bifrost, they couldn’t possibly come to this place .

After settling Kashmir and Babe down at the location, he reminded them not to run about in case they ran into danger .

Finally, Wei Xiao Bei had Andre return to the real world first . Once Andre’s body slowly turned transparent and vanished into thin air, Wei Xiao Bei calmed himself and thought about leaving .

… .

When he finally woke up, he found his surroundings to be somewhat quiet .

He was still in the same valley, the snow falling from the sky completely covering him .

A pack of wolves were resting in the valley, the cubs fighting amongst themselves and practicing the hunting techniques they would need to survive in the future .

An ordinary person waking up in such an environment would have trouble getting out of the thick pile of snow by themselves .

However, it was an easy matter for Wei Xiao Bei .

He shook his entire body and pressed with his hands against the ground .

He immediately shot upward and broke through the layers of snow .

This was a completely shocking incident for those wolves .

They were just having a nice rest here after they had their meal .

The snow then exploded and something seemed to have charged out of it . The snow from the explosion shot toward them like bullets .

The wolves immediately started fleeing .

He couldn’t be bothered to hunt down the wolves either .

The living space for these animals was already shrinking with the humans’ constant exploitation of nature . If supernatural beings like Wei Xiao Bei also started killing these animals for no reason, then it would be a true tragedy for them .

He returned along the same path after discerning the direction he was facing .

Of course, saying he was returning the way he came wasn’t exactly right .

Here, close to the Arctic Circle, the snow was the heaviest on Earth . The snow would be less if you walked toward the North Pole instead .

As such, even a straight road would quickly be covered in white snow after a single night and vanish without a trace, let alone the rough path that Wei Xiao Bei took last time .

However, once he found the pickup truck that had been buried in snow, it became a lot more convenient .

Though starting this car that had been completely frozen took up a good bit of his time, it became much simpler once the car was started and the GPS function was activated .

Of course, the car itself had no way of being driven back . The snow on the ground was too thick . Without a proper snow removal vehicle, this pickup truck would stop working in no time .

He did consider lifting the entire pickup truck back to where he had come from . One shouldn’t doubt his strength, as he could do it . The problem was that he had no way of explaining how he had brought the truck back once he lifted it back . If that was the case, he might as well pay the boss some money and have him go pick up the truck once the snow had stopped .

Wei Xiao Bei immediately felt like something was off once he returned to the town .

Two policemen walked out of the hotel, a police car parked outside the building .

It wasn’t until he returned to the hotel that he discovered that the police had come due to a report filed by the boss of the place .

He had been determined to be missing .

If that was the case, he would rather not show himself .

As a tourist with a Danish visa, Xiao Bei felt like it would be too much trouble to give a statement at the police station . He decided to just leave some cash in the boss’ room, along with a note explaining that he had left and also where the truck was .

Xiao Bei had no intention to stay after that . He went to the nearest airport and took a plane back to the capital of Denmark .

He first went to visit Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi upon returning to the capital .

The two felt like crying when they saw their master return .

In Huang Kun’s words, this place was just no fun .

The etiquette classes were not as frequent now and they had time to walk about for sightseeing .

However, even the most pretty of sceneries would become dull after looking at it over and over .

More crucially, Zhu Xin Yi was doing far better than he was . She had learned some basic Danish greetings over this time and wasn’t a completely ignorant tourist here . In comparison, Huang Kun did not understand anything at all .

It was truly somewhat difficult to live in a situation like this .

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but doubt whether Huang Kun was truly the child of Zhou Rong .

Zhou Rong was a truly strong woman . Her Danish was so fluent that if you didn’t know, you might have mistaken her for a Chinese that grew up in Denmark .

After Huang Kun complained a bunch upon seeing him, Zhu Xin Yi finally noticed that Wei Xiao Bei had his eyes closed the entire time . As a girl, she was more attuned to details after all . She exclaimed, “Master, what happened to your eyes?”

Huang Kun also became concerned upon hearing this . Judging from the way he was behaving, he was prepared to call for a doctor to examine his master at any moment .

“They are fine . Don’t worry . My eyes are alright . There’s just some small issue with them . ”

He extended a hand and pressed down on Huang Kun’s hand that was holding a phone .

They are fine?

Both Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi had disbelief written all across their faces .

Who would just close their eyes for nothing if their eyes were fine?

Was he training his hearing to supernatural levels like in the movies?

Wei Xiao Bei did not need to lie to his two apprentices . He chuckled and opened his eyes to look at them .

Mama!

Huang Kun immediately jumped like a cat that had its tail stepped on and flipped over behind the sofa .

Zhu Xin Yi behaved more composed than Huang Kun . Her face was pale and she remained seated on the sofa, but the silhouette of a Licker faintly appeared beside her .

It couldn’t be helped that his apprentices were so agitated .

Ever since [Status Appraisal] advanced to become [Enlightenment], his eyes naturally possessed the effect of the skill . Any person or thing that he looked at would be examined, and the information would turn into a status panel .

Moreover, no living creature would feel good during this process . They would feel an even more intense sensation of being spied on than before as if someone was trying to dig out their secrets from the depths of their souls .

Of course, the more intelligent you are, the stronger the sensation .

That was why Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi were both behaving in this manner .

“Timid as a rat! Learn from your apprentice sister . ”

Wei Xiao Bei scolded Huang Kun and closed his eyes . This was the residence of the Danish royal heir, after all . Some servants could appear . It would be troublesome if they were to discover anything out of the ordinary .

“Master, when are we going back home?”

Huang Kun became bolder after understanding that the effect was due to Wei Xiao Bei’s skill . He grabbed his arm and started shaking it about, much like his apprentice sister tended to do when she was acting cute to get something she wanted .

Wei Xiao Bei felt a chill of disgust run down his spine . He released electricity with his right hand and shocked Huang Kun into letting go .
