"Thank you for your care, Father." Fan Luo Kui smiled, the warm touch on her head making her feel incredibly comfortable. "Luo Kui is doing very well lately."
"That's good……"
Fan Dongyin smiled brightly. He carefully looked at Fan Luokui in front of him and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You're really getting more and more handsome, and you're starting to look more and more like your mother."
"Mother……"
The light in Fan Luokui's eyes dimmed slightly when a certain deceased person was mentioned.
Fan Dongyin knew he seemed to have touched a raw nerve in his daughter's heart. He paused for a moment and continued, "Your mother passed away when you were young, and you couldn't spend quality time with her... This is truly my fault."
After he finished speaking, a huge wave of emotion appeared on his face, as if he was hating his own incompetence.
"If I had been a little stronger back then..."
"No, it's not Father's fault."
Fan Luokui suddenly spoke up, shaking her head with tears welling up in her eyes.
Fan Dongyin seemed to be frightened by Fan Luokui and subconsciously took a step back.
Fan Luokui took a deep breath and repeated.
"It wasn't Father's fault. If there really was a culprit behind Mother's death, it was the person who poisoned her, and..."
Fan Luokui didn't say the last name aloud.
Because her father, Fan Dongyin, stopped her before she could even speak.
"Luo Kui, don't make a fuss. Only you and I know how vicious that person is. If you get too agitated about this, I might not be able to let you carry out the next operation."
Upon hearing this, Fan Luokui nodded in agreement, and then followed Fan Dongyin's advice, taking a deep breath.
A flash of light suddenly appeared on the storage ring on her right hand, and the next second, a blue flash appeared in front of the two of them.
It was an extremely plain-looking blue box, about the size of a palm.
Upon seeing this item, Fan Dongyin's eyebrows twitched instinctively, his joy evident. "Luo Kui, you've already obtained it?"
“Yes, Father, Luo Kui has not let you down.” Fan Luo Kui smiled slightly and slowly opened the box. “Although there were some unexpected events along the way, I still got what you wanted.”
The moment the box was opened, a chill wafted out from the crack.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Snow Palace seemed to be wrapped in an ice coat, and the already extremely cold air condensed into countless dazzling ice flowers.
Amidst the clusters of numerous ice flowers, Fan Dongyin saw what was inside the box.
Silver Ice Flower.
Moreover, there was more than one!
Fan Dongyin glanced at it, and his eyes lit up with surprise. "This... Luo Kui, you've already collected five Silver Ice Flowers!"
"Luo Kui lived up to expectations."
After receiving the Silver Frost Flower from his daughter, Fan Dongyin slowly calmed his excitement. Several large tears were already welling up in his resolute eyes.
He truly hadn't expected this day to come so soon.
"That's wonderful, that's wonderful..." Fan Dongyin no longer had that imperial demeanor; he was weeping with joy. "Your mother can finally rest in peace!"
"Yes... Mother can finally..."
Gently close the box; as the cold air dissipates, the surrounding ice flowers also slowly dissipate.
Fan Dongyin turned his back and put the box containing the five silver ice flowers into his storage ring.
His slightly trembling voice slowly reached Fan Luo Kui's ears: "Luo Kui, come to me again in three days. That thing will be delivered to you then."
Upon hearing that thing, Fan Luokui's eyes suddenly sharpened.
"Yes! Luo Kui... will not let Father down."
Fan Dongyin waved his hand and gave Fan Luokui a domineering smile: "Go, go and get ready!"
"Yes, Father!"
Fan Luokui was undoubtedly excited.
With a burning excitement in her heart, she slowly withdrew from behind the Snow Palace.
Three days later... Yes, only three days left.
There are only three days left.
……
After Fan Luokui left, Fan Dongyin sat back on the throne.
At this moment, he was still shedding tears, but the expression on his face had become extremely cold.
Seated on his throne, his commanding words echoed repeatedly, "Lord Fu!"
The words had barely left his lips.
A dark shadow suddenly appeared beside Fan Dongyin, bending slightly at the waist.
An aged voice rang out, "Palace Master, what are your orders?"
"Have you been keeping an eye on Luo Kui lately?"
"No, I've been dealing with those people lately... and haven't had time to..."
"Is it all done?" Fan Dongyin turned around and looked at the old man in the shadows. "Is everything resolved?"
The old man's weathered face slowly emerged from the shadows. "Reporting to the Palace Master, I have taken care of everything."
"Then go and see Luo Kui."
"Miss... what happened to her?"
Fan Dongyin narrowed his eyes, his expression serious. "I sensed something strange about Luo Kui. She seems to have recently been in contact with some people who are not from my Beibing Palace."
The old man, addressed as Elder Fu, immediately understood, his face revealing undisguised murderous intent. "Palace Master, are you going to...?"
"No." Fan Dongyin raised his hand to stop Fu Lao. "We are in a critical period now. We should avoid conflict if possible, but we can try to test the waters."
"what do you mean……"
"Don't do it yourself, just send some jackals and tigers over."
A faint smile appeared on Old Fu's face. "I see. But if probing reveals anything and it affects our plans..."
Fan Dongyin snorted coldly; his plan absolutely did not allow anyone to interfere.
This time, he was determined to win!
And so, a terrifying killing intent, like a raging sea of blood, erupted from the body of this king of the Northern Ice Palace.
"Then kill them all!"
96. Lao Yun said – Thank you so much!
Yunping originally wanted to ask Fan Luokui about some trivial matters, but unfortunately, the busy captain of the trial team was always nowhere to be found. In addition, his two apprentices insisted on going out with them.
The commercial areas of the Inner Palace and the Outer Palace are fundamentally different in nature.
Because the outer three palaces are, to some extent, areas that anyone can enter and exit, even the most prosperous streets are occasionally frequented by some low-quality vendors.
The inner three palaces are completely different. After all, those who can enter them are either powerful and influential, powerful and respected cultivators, or extremely wealthy people who have so much money that even a torrential downpour wouldn't be enough.
The items sold to these important people were mostly expensive and high-end.
"Wow—this is so small and it costs 30,000 gold coins..."
This can be seen from Ye Yuchan's astonished expression, which resembled that of a country bumpkin visiting the city.
Before her was a small shop that specialized in selling luxury goods. The shop owner was rather thin, and a hint of disdain lingered on his indifferent face.
Nevertheless, the boss maintained his businesslike smile.
“Miss, these are Lantian jade earrings carved by the famous jeweler Master Chen Jun. They are absolutely genuine. I’m losing money selling them at this price.”
"Oh~" Ye Yuchan showed a look of sudden realization, "So it's a work by Master Chen Jun."
Zhang Ruoxue leaned closer and asked in confusion, "Who is Master Chen Jun?"
Ye Yuchan silently put the earrings back in her hand, then helplessly spread her hands, "I don't know either..."
Yunping and Zhang Ruoxue: "..."
Before the two could finish their awkward silence, Ye Yuchan happily ran to the next shop and began curiously examining the incredibly expensive items inside.
In fact, these were not expensive at all for Ye Yuchan, who had a fortune of millions of gold coins!
If she really wanted to buy it, she could probably dress herself up like a rich heiress, covered in expensive luxury goods.
However, when women go shopping, every man knows that they mostly just browse without buying anything unless they find something they really want. Most of the time, they just look around casually.
On the other hand, Zhang Ruoxue was experiencing a stomachache.
Because of the dress Yunping forced her to wear—
This sailor uniform, which can't be taken off except when absolutely necessary, is actually completely out of step with the aesthetic standards of people in this world.
Just like the black and white maid outfit Ye Yuchan was wearing, it looked like a strange outfit from another world to outsiders. Because of this, wherever Ye Yuchan went, people would basically follow her, which made her feel a little uneasy.
Little Rain Cicada wasn't used to being the center of attention.
What Zhang Ruoxue found most frustrating was that she had absolutely no chance to buy clothes!
It is extremely cruel that girls cannot buy clothes they like when they go shopping, and even the possibility of trying them on is denied.
This is also why Zhang Ruoxue stared at Yunping with resentment the whole way.
"Hey Ruoxue, you've been staring at me the whole way here..." Yunping looked at Zhang Ruoxue with a resentful expression, "Can you please stop for a second..."
“If you’d be willing to help me take this off,” Zhang Ruoxue said in a particularly cold tone.
Yunping chuckled awkwardly, "This isn't very appropriate... This is in public, after all."
Zhang Ruoxue immediately realized what was going on. She glared at this irresponsible idiot and said, "I didn't ask you to help me take my clothes off! Nor did I ask you to take them off right now! Honestly... how did I end up with a master like you?"
The old rogue chuckled; how could he not know the bitterness in Zhang Ruoxue's heart?
