Frigid Snow Clan Second Elder

Frigid Snow Clan Second Elder is a conservative guardian of the Frigid Snow Clan’s dwindling resources. He publicly voids the agreement with Meng Hao after trusting Zhou Dekun’s apparent victory, then gives an equally public apology once Meng Hao’s alchemy proves indispensable.

Biography

Protecting the larvae

Second Elder is identified by gray hair and a moon-shaped mark on his forehead. With only two Frigid Snow Larvae approaching completion, he argues that giving one to an unknown outsider would be irresponsible. Zhou Dekun’s Southern Domain reputation offers a safer alternative, so Second Elder supports relying on him and accepts his claim that Meng Hao’s poison work is trickery. (Chapters 357–360)

He therefore announces before the gathered cultivators that the clan’s prior agreement with Meng Hao is invalid. The decision is not merely private skepticism; it places clan authority behind a false public judgment. The later alchemy duel proves that Meng Hao can produce Pill Tribulation and a Lightning Sea Pill while the elders cannot even fully evaluate what they witness. When Meng Hao tries to leave, Second Elder recognizes that his own words have endangered the city’s best ally. He bows, admits he was wrong, and proposes giving Meng Hao a larva in gratitude. (Chapters 360–366)

War and restitution

Second Elder fights as one of the four Nascent Soul anchors of Holy Snow City. Each elder commands a battle sector against a force containing a matched Nascent Soul opponent. The Lightning Sea Pills magnified by the city’s snow formations tear through attackers below, while the elders maintain the aerial fight until the awakened Thorn Rampart disrupts both sides. (Chapters 367–369)

He then helps concentrate the elders’ effort on maturing the promised larva during the month of safety. Later he joins the immediate shield that saves clan members from a Spirit Severing shockwave, suffering injuries in the process. Even while wounded, he participates in the evacuation preparations, bows to Meng Hao with the other survivors, and leaves through the completed teleportation spell. Restitution is thus carried through action rather than ending with the apology. (Chapters 370, 374, 379 and 381–382)

Appearance and personality

Second Elder is a gray-haired old man with a glittering crescent or moon-shaped mark on his forehead. He is cautious with irreplaceable resources and too willing to defer to recognized authority. His error comes from conservative judgment, not secret hostility. Once the evidence reverses, he accepts public embarrassment and states his fault directly, showing a strong concern for institutional fairness as well as preservation.

Abilities and cultivation

Nascent Soul cultivation

Second Elder possesses a Nascent Soul cultivation base and enough strength to administer one part of Holy Snow City’s defense against an opposing expert. The source does not give a precise substage or unique named offensive divine ability.

Joint shielding

With the other Grand Elders, he can create a glittering shield around a protected person and combine cultivation to shield clan members from a Spirit Severing-level blast. The first shield is broken by a much stronger attacker, and the later protection wounds all four elders, establishing that coordination mitigates but does not erase realm differences.

Formation operation

Second Elder helps sustain Holy Snow City’s defensive spell formations and the later teleportation array. The snow and tempest infrastructure amplifies the Lightning Sea Pills from dozens to hundreds of meters. Because the pills were made by Meng Hao and First Elder orders their deployment, Second Elder’s confirmed role is collective operation rather than pill creation.

Battlefield endurance

He continues administrative and formation work while injured after successive attacks. This demonstrates endurance and discipline but not regeneration; the text still describes him as wounded when the clan prepares to leave.
