Leo and Xue left the Empire and headed towards the south, towards the icy regions.
Apparently, the icy regions were still present in the world only because of Xue's soul fragment.
The land had changed over the ten thousand years and what was earlier just a single land mass, had now been divided into 7 continents.
While Leo and Xue didn't think much of it, they later realized that the number was similar to the number of Primordial Beasts that existed.
Leon commented on this too.
Leo and Xue went inside the forest, traveling cautiously.
They traveled for about five hours when it was time for the sunset.
"Leo, I think we should stop here…", Xue said as she pointed at the stream that flew in the forest.
Leo denied. That was because being near a water source was dangerous. Many beasts would rush to the place to satisfy their thirst.
Since Xue was a beast, she too thought the same, as other beasts and after hearing Leo, she decided to move further.
'Leon, what do you think?'
