Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

"If you just die like this, then I can only say, Lao Hu, you're being a bit selfish."

Hu Xiaolin: "..."

"Old Hu, you must still have things to do."

“Me?” Hu Xiaolin stared intently at Yun Ping with sorrowful eyes. “What else can I do?”

"Of course."

Yunping pushed the second cup of wine in front of Yu Bainiao.

This scene, however, held a different meaning in Hu Xiaolin's eyes.

He turned around and looked at the jade bird with tears in its eyes. Its exquisite face and beautiful eyes were staring intently at him.

They never left.

Is that so...?

I see.

What my benefactor said is what I should do...

Hu Xiaolin slowly raised his wine glass with trembling hands.

That's about it...

Hu Xiaolin downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Despite being an incredibly delicious wine, the bitterness it produced in his throat was something Hu Xiaolin had never experienced before in his life.

So much so that he was moved to tears by the bitterness.

Seeing this, Yu Bai Niao followed Hu Xiao Lin's example and poured the wine glass in front of him directly onto his lips.

The bright red liquor flowed down her red lips and down her throat.

Their eyes met for the first time at that moment.

it is more than words.

……

however--

Boom!Boom!

That wasn't the sound of knocking on the door.

It was the sound of a head hitting the table.

Seeing Hu Xiaolin and Yu Bai Niao suddenly faint and collapse on the table, Yun Ping silently stood up.

"...You old rogue, what have you done?" Ye Yuchan jumped out in surprise and quickly went over to check on the two men's physical condition.

Thankfully, he's just unconscious.

Yunping casually popped the last peanut into his mouth. "I'm just not used to the atmosphere between these two. Anyway, it's safe to say that these two are officially together."

“But knocking them out directly is really too…” Zhang Ruoxue also felt that it was somewhat inappropriate.

Yunping waved his hand and casually pushed open the door.

On this snowy night, the snowflakes at the Arctic Palace were unusually free of any accompanying cold wind.

Slowly, like flower petals, they drifted down onto Yunping's shoulder.

He turned around and greeted the two of them, "Alright, let's go. We'll leave the rest to them to handle."

Yes, we'll leave it to them.

Yunping didn't bother to investigate the Snow Shadow Team or anything like that.

That's all Yunping could offer regarding the idea of ​​falling in love with the murderers who killed her parents.

As for whether the two of them will actually get married and have children, Yunping doesn't know.

But one thing is certain: their relationship will definitely be elevated further, not just because of that glass of wine, nor just because of Hu Xiaolin's unresolved issues.

more importantly……

—Yunping, that old rogue, drugged the drink.

In addition to the drug that made them unconscious, they were also given a special drug.

It's something that takes effect after waking up...

Aphrodisiac.

"Old Hu, now you have no choice but to atone for your sins, whether you want to or not."

88. I saw an acquaintance again.

The cold winter wind cut into the girl's tender cheeks, and pure snowflakes fell wildly like a torrential downpour in the dark night. If it weren't for the protection of the magic spell, Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue would have been frozen into snowmen by now.

Three figures walked slowly and deliberately among the trees.

They had previously obtained a map from Hu Xiaolin, or rather Hu Yingluan, to coordinate with the personnel of the three palaces within the Northern Ice Palace. Following the route on the map, they would arrive at their destination in about fifteen minutes.

The young man at the head raised his head and glanced at the bright moon in the sky, which had become even rounder and fuller with the passage of time.

If you do a quick calculation, tomorrow will be the full moon.

But none of that matters. What matters is the itinerary to come.

“Hey, you old rogue… I’ve discovered something.”

Walking through the dense forest, the tree branches, covered with a few specks of snow, drooped slightly. The girl frowned, her expression shifting slightly.

The young man at the front suddenly turned around. He glanced at his female apprentice, whose face was full of strange expressions. "What's wrong, Xiaoyuchan? You look so aggrieved. Did your period come to visit you?"

Zhang Ruoxue nudged Yunping with her elbow, "Teacher, be serious."

"Alright, alright, I was just joking because the atmosphere between you guys was a bit strange." Yunping smiled as always. "So, what did you find out, Xiaoyuchan?"

Ye Yuchan rolled her eyes at him. "Where's Senior Sister?"

Senior sister?

Yunping immediately realized, "You mean Yuan'er!"

"Yes... I saw you carrying your unconscious senior sister the whole time. We came out right after we finished eating..."

After Ye Yuchan pointed it out, Zhang Ruoxue also realized it.

That seems to make sense!

After arguing with Hu Xiaolin for most of the day, it seems that Yunping finally managed to match him up with Yu Bai Niao. But it seems that after the matchmaking, Yunping simply pushed open the door and walked out.

He didn't return to Senior Sister Lin Yuan's room, nor did he see Old Yun carrying someone out.

Zhang Ruoxue swallowed hard. "Teacher, you wouldn't... have forgotten about your senior sister, would you?"

If that's the case, then Zhang Ruoxue will have nothing to say about her teacher.

I've seen people lose items, I've seen people lose ritual implements, but I've never seen anyone lose face like this!

Fortunately, Lao Yun wasn't that kind of shameful person.

"How is that possible!"

Yunping extended his right hand, and the silver storage ring on his middle finger immediately emitted a slightly dim glow.

The girl's frail figure slowly emerged from the storage ring, gradually growing from the size of a fist to a normal size.

Lin Yuan—with her hair tied in a side ponytail and wearing a red corset-like dress resembling a cheongsam—lay quietly in Yun Ping's arms.

If others saw this scene, they would definitely think that the lewd-smiling uncle was a perverted lolicon—that's for sure!

"How did you manage to put Senior Sister into your storage ring!" Ye Yuchan exclaimed in surprise. "Isn't it said that you can't put living creatures in storage rings?"

Zhang Ruoxue's face turned as pale as the surrounding snow in an instant. "Could it be that Senior Sister has already..."

"Go away, what are you all thinking? Cursing your senior sister like that, be careful that Yuan'er will play Wild Bee Dance on you when she wakes up."

"What is 'Flying Bumblebees'?" Ye Yuchan didn't know either.

Yun Ping glanced at her indifferently, his tone tinged with a hint of panic about a certain piece of music, "You'll understand when I play it for you next time."

After performing a magical illusion for his two female disciples, Yunping once again put the sleeping Lin Yuan into his storage ring.

In fact, this is the safest method. It allows Lin Yuan to maintain her life force intact within the storage ring, and there is no need to worry about her getting hurt should she encounter danger.

The next steps may not go smoothly.

……

After a brief operation, the three finally arrived at their agreed destination.

The structure of the Arctic Palace is more like a series of interconnected palaces than a cluster of palaces. The outer three palaces are like the outer rings of concentric circles, covering a large area, while the inner three palaces are the inner rings of concentric circles, covering a small area but filled with elites.

At this moment, the three of them have arrived at the dividing point between the inner three palaces and the outer three palaces.

The icicles, as tall as city walls, were tightly packed together, with one guard for every ten icicles.

Yun Ping glanced at them briefly and found that the strength of these guards ranged from the peak of the Transformation stage to the God Transformation stage. In some weaker areas, two guards would even be added at once.

This is to ensure that no one, or rather, no living being, can leave without permission under their watchful eyes.

"It feels like the security is very tight..."

Ye Yuchan peeked her head out from the dark forest, glanced around quickly, and then shrank back in fear. "They're all Transcendent Realm experts, and even peak Transformation Realm experts."

Zhang Ruoxue's lips twitched. "Xiao Yuchan, have you forgotten what happened in Jinglin City?"

“…Oh right!” Ye Yuchan clenched her left fist and opened her right palm, then tapped her hands together. “You old rogue, you should have a way to let the three of us in without anyone noticing, right?”

"If I could, why would I need Lao Hu's help?" Yun Ping rolled his eyes at Ye Yuchan. "With your cultivation levels, even with my support, it's a pipe dream to go in in front of them. Do you really think that all Transcendent Realm cultivators are idiots?"

“That’s true.” Zhang Ruoxue nodded thoughtfully. “Even a saint or a half-immortal would find it unlikely to help a cultivator in the Spirit Palace stage sneak past a cultivator in the Transformation stage.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuchan's ears perked up immediately. "Ruoxue, you've reached the Spirit Palace stage!"

The voice was a little loud, and visibly, one of the guards closest to them seemed to become suspicious and glanced in their direction.

However, he discovered nothing—Yun Ping blocked his divine sense when it swept through.
