<h4>Chapter 247: Could Run On Its Own</h4>


    However, she did not leave the mountaintop. After all, it was not easy for her to climb up. For the sake of the Snow Lotus, she would not back down in the slightest. Moreover, before she came, the elder had said that friendship came first. That was why Kaki was so bold and was certain that Audrey would not be ruthless.


    Audrey was indeed like that. She did not want to cause too much bloodshed on the snowy mountain. Her goal this time was only to obtain the Snow Lotus.


    After Kaki and the others retreated to the side, Audrey ignored them. She used magic to raise an inextinguishable fire next to the tent, warming up the surroundings.


    “Audrey, this fire is too magical. It’s actually so warm,” Klein said happily. In this ce of ice and snow, they actually did not feel the slightest bit of cold.


    Audrey chuckled. This ball of fire was formed from her magic power, so it naturally would not be weak.


    “Alright, go and rest. Rest up. We still have to continue searching for the Snow Lotus tomorrow,” Audrey said. It was still the middle of the night.


    “Yes, but we have to take turns to rest.” Cole nodded from the side.


    Audrey had the same thought. They had to take turns to rest. This way, they could ensure everyone’s safety. Not only did they have to guard against wild beasts, but they also had to guard against people with ulterior motives.


    “Then let’s split into three groups and take turns to rest,” Adrian said.


    As soon as he said that, Klein said, “Then I’ll be in a group with Audrey.”


    Kate was about to open his mouth when he closed it again. His eyes dimmed slightly.


    “I’ll be in a group with Cole.” Adrian looked at Cole.


    Kate could only be in a group with Hobart.


    Audrey and Klein were the first to keep watch while the other four fell asleep. The two of them began to chat in low voices. “This snowynd is so big. We’ve searched everywhere today, but we still haven’t found the Snow Lotus. Could it be that it’s not here at all?”


    “It won’t be. This is the most suitable ce for the growth of the Snow Lotus,” Audrey said affirmatively. Although she could not find the Snow Lotus, for the time being, she had a faint feeling that it was here.


    Klein nodded doubtfully and said leisurely, “I hope we can find it tomorrow.”


    The night passed quickly. Early in the morning, Audrey yawned as she walked out of the tent. She washed up a little and did not have to pay too much attention to the snowy ground.


    “We’ll still split up to look for it. We have to look carefully at the edges and corners, especially on the cliffs,” said Klein. They were still divided into groups ording to the previous night.


    Audrey and Klein searched every corner of the north carefully, but they still could not find the Snow Lotus.


    However, Audrey discovered that there were many other herbs growing here. Although they were not as precious as the Snow Lotus, the herbs that grew in such a ce were considered rare.


    Audrey conveniently gathered all the herbs.


    “Audrey, why are you gathering those medicinal herbs? Aren’t we looking for the Snow Lotus?” Klein asked with a puzzled expression.


    Audrey sighed lightly. It was fortunate that Klein was still a student of the Pharmacy Academy. He actually did not know how to collect medicinal herbs.


    “These medicinal herbs are considered rare and precious. It might be useful if we collect them back. We can even save on buying them,” Audrey exined indifferently. Klein suddenly understood.


    As a student of the same Pharmacy Academy, Klein could not help but admire Audrey for her foresight. No wonder Audrey was more powerful than him.


    “That makes sense. Let me help you.” As he said this, Klein also began to move.


    Some herbs had to be collected meticulously. For example, the roots had to be intact. The two of them had wasted a lot of time gathering the herbs before collecting them all.


    When the agreed time was up, the two of them returned.


    Seeing Audrey carrying a bag of herbs, Cole immediately ran up in surprise. “Wow, you found the Snow Lotus. There are so many of them.”


    Klein and Audrey rolled their eyes at Cole at the same time.


    “The Snow Lotus is rare. It’s already good enough to have one. How can there be so many of them?” Klein said in a speechless manner.


    Cole finally reacted. He rubbed the back of his head and gave a silly smile.


    “Then what is this?” Behind him, Kate asked curiously.


    Audrey then said, “It’s some other medicinal herbs. I picked them when I saw them.” The others nodded, indicating that they understood.


    “Then, we still haven’t found the Snow Lotus of the Enchantress. We’ve searched the entire ce, but there’s not a single trace of it.” Hobart’s brows were tightly knitted, and there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes.


    The others were simrly depressed. They could not help but wonder if they had found the wrong ce. Audrey also fell into deep thought.


    “This Snow Lotus is too difficult to find. Aren’t the Temr Knights making things difficult for us?” Cole curled his lips and frowned. “Could it be that it’s really like the legends? The Snow Lotus is very intelligent and can run away on its own.”


    Runaway on its own?


    Audrey was stunned for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up.


    Although she had heard about what Cole had said in her previous life, she had never taken it seriously. After all, who would believe that a herb would run away on its own?


    However, now that this matter was brought up again, Audrey suddenly believed it.


    “Which book did you read it in?” Audrey suddenly asked.


    “I don’t remember. It was a long time ago. It was just a random book. I can’t take it seriously,” Cole said nonchntly. Audrey was even more certain that the Snow Lotus would run away on her own.


    “No, what was written in that book might be true,” Audrey said solemnly as she looked at the five of them.


    When she said this, the five of them were instantly shocked. They looked at Audrey in confusion. “How is this possible?” Adrian said in disbelief.


    “Some very intelligent nts can indeed move on their own. What’s more, the Snow Lotus has the protection and help of a high-level divine beast like the Snow Qilin. It’s not strange that they can move on their own and hide,” Audrey exined patiently.


    Only then did the five of them reluctantly ept it.


    “Then what should we do?” It was Klein who asked this question.


    Audrey frowned as she pondered seriously.


    Since they could not find the Snow Lotus, perhaps they could start with the Snow Qilin. After all, the Snow Qilin was a living creature. It was huge, so it would be easier to find some.


    Where there was a Snow Qilin, there must be a Snow Lotus.
