Hundred Miles of Ice

Warrior and swordsmanguard and later covert recruitLing Tian City

Hundred Miles of Ice is an independent Warrior known as the Emotionless Swordsman and the close companion of Winter of That Year. Although his article evidence contains little direct combat, it consistently presents him as the calmer half of the pair: he protects Ling Tian City’s secret, endures months of guard duty, and later joins Ling Chen’s network under the codename Ice. (Chapters 181, 435–478, 532–537, and 702)

Biography

Heart’s Dream and the First Guild

Hundred Miles of Ice is introduced in black clothing, with a cold gaze and a public reputation as a stone-hearted swordsman. An admirer ignores Winter to approach him, while his only response to Winter’s excited schemes is a curt insult. The scene establishes an accomplished independent warrior whose restraint sharply contrasts with his companion’s vanity and constant speech. (Chapters 181 and 186)

Calamity in the East Ocean Continent

Hundred Miles and Winter accidentally reach the player city under construction. When Yun Meng Xin asks them to keep it secret, Hundred Miles agrees without bargaining and notes internally that he would not have exposed it even without her request. Winter then volunteers them as guards; although Hundred Miles is dragged into the promise, he remains at the northern approach for months and helps ensure no player reaches the city. (Chapters 435–437 and 478)

The Defense and Founding of Ling Tian City

Hundred Miles continues guard duty while Winter confronts Cang Yan, standing watch with the stillness of a sculpture. He temporarily leaves only to undertake his second profession upgrade quest, which prevents Winter from contacting him during part of the confrontation. The cited passages do not show the quest’s result or a personal battle, so his contribution here is sustained security rather than a documented feat. (Chapters 532–534 and 537)

The Underworld and the Forgotten City

Hundred Miles and Winter later seek entry into Ling’s covert organization. After medical examination confirms that their lifeforce, senses, and general health are vigorous rather than deteriorating, they are accepted under the codenames Ice and Winter. The chapter establishes a deeper commitment than temporary guard work, though it does not depict their first mission after recruitment. (Chapter 702)

The Godchild Crisis and Qi Xing

Hundred Miles does not appear directly in the Godchild battle. Ling’s later realization attributes the restoration of both men’s withering lifeforce and senses to Sha Sha. The source never defines the original condition or shows Hundred Miles consciously receiving treatment, so his current health is known while the prior medical history remains sparse. (Chapter 810)

Appearance and personality

Hundred Miles wears black and stands straight with sharp eyes, at times appearing almost like a sculpture. His severe gaze and controlled posture support the “Emotionless Swordsman” epithet, though Yun Meng Xin’s beauty briefly makes even him stare before he deliberately looks away. (Chapters 181, 436, and 532)

He is quiet, private, and less susceptible to impulsive manipulation than Winter. He dislikes meddling and needs no reward to keep a dangerous secret. His decision to remain after being volunteered shows tolerance and loyalty toward his companion despite frequent annoyance. (Chapters 186 and 436–478)

Abilities and powers

Hundred Miles is explicitly a Warrior-class player and swordsman with a high-level reputation. His progress is sufficient to qualify for a special second profession upgrade quest, but the corpus excerpts do not identify the resulting profession, his weapon, named techniques, or a complete fight. (Chapters 181, 436, and 534)

His strengths in the documented period are endurance, discretion, and sustained guard work. He is not actually established as a mage despite a generic role label in some planning material; the narrative identifies him as a Warrior and swordsman. His repaired real-world health comes from Sha Sha, not a power of his own. (Chapters 181, 436, 478, 702, and 810)

Relationships

  • Winter of That Year: Winter is Hundred Miles’s closest companion and calls him boss. Hundred Miles repeatedly criticizes Winter’s foolishness but follows through on the promises Winter makes for both of them. (Chapters 181, 186, 435–478, and 702)
  • Yun Meng Xin: Hundred Miles agrees to protect Yun Meng Xin’s secret and remains at the city approach through construction. Unlike Winter, his cooperation is presented as personal discretion rather than infatuation alone. (Chapters 436–437 and 478)
  • Ling Chen: Hundred Miles ultimately asks to join Ling’s covert network and receives the codename Ice. No direct private conversation between the two is supplied. (Chapter 702)
  • Sha Sha: Sha Sha unknowingly or silently restores Hundred Miles’s failing lifeforce and senses. Ling identifies her as the cause only later. (Chapters 702 and 810)

Items

  • No named personal weapon: Hundred Miles is called a swordsman, but the supplied passages do not name or describe his sword.
  • No signature equipment: His article evidence focuses on reputation, guard service, and recruitment rather than owned artifacts.
