A red figure appeared on the unbroken icy surface, Garmandis's whole body emitting a blue glow. The river water, which was rushing under the ice, suddenly became still, thereby preserving Nian Bing's body in that icy cavern water.
While studying cooking with Cha Ji, Nian Bing often played in the not-so-turbulent Tianqing River, but this didn't mean he could navigate in the glacial river too. As soon as he surfaced, he desperately swam towards the shore, hoping to quickly get on the bank, too occupied even to chastise Garmandis.
"Kid, you want to get out? Stop dreaming, first, clean yourself for me, otherwise, don't think about leaving the water." The only decent thing Garmandis did was leave the Holy Radiance Knife in Nian Bing's hand when he kicked him away, otherwise Nian Bing would've sunk to the bottom.
"You… you... crazy... so... cold... cold… river... you want... me to die…" Caught in an extreme chill, Nian Bing was barely coherent.
