Return of the Mount Hua Sect Novel Translation

Chapter 1923. What Is It That You Desire? (3) The warriors of the Frozen Land were strong. Every single day, they faced the sharp claws of beasts and battled against cold that flayed the flesh itself. They had been raised in a land where one could not survive without wagering one’s life day after day.
