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

"Waaaaaah!"

They were so scared they flew away.

They were genuinely terrified.

Ye Yuchan flew backwards for three meters and landed hard on her bottom.

"puff--"

Laughter suddenly burst from the dark figure's mouth.

The young man, whose legs were dangling from the high stone wall, leaped down, casually wiping the black dust off his face to reveal a sunny smile.

Youth – Yunping.

His lips were adorned with countless smiles, his eyes narrowed into slits as he looked at Ye Yuchan, who was panting heavily in the distance, and burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha—Little Yuchan, why are you so timid? You're a cultivator, why are you afraid of ghosts?"

Ye Yuchan finally realized what had happened, and her pale and helpless face regained a lot of color. What followed was her anger at being tricked by the old rogue.

"You old scoundrel, you hid all this time just to scare me?!"

"What else?" Yunping chuckled. "Being able to see your apprentice's adorable, frightened expression is a kind of joy in life~"

"you……!"

Ye Yuchan was so angry she felt like she was about to ascend to heaven. If it weren't for the fact that resentment and anger cannot be used by people, she would have already attained immortality and flown to heaven by now.

Guess what Lao Yun went to do?

(I'm not feeling well today, so there might only be one update... I ate too much spicy food, which caused diarrhea all day, and I'm almost completely exhausted.)

113. Silver Cold Snow Ice - Meeting

After this brief interlude, Yunping finally returned to the main body of the story.

However, Lao Yun claimed that he hid specifically to scare his apprentice, but in reality, no one knew where he actually went.

What shocked both Fu Lao and Fan Luokui was that—even though there was such a large, living person hanging right above their heads, they were completely oblivious, as if they were blind.

In addition, the young man's fearless attitude when facing the Palace Master of the Northern Ice Palace makes people suspect that his seemingly uncultivated level is a facade, and that his true cultivation level is probably not low at all.

Fan Luo Kui and Elder Fu exchanged glances, especially Fan Luo Kui, who deliberately signaled to Elder Fu to be careful of this extremely special young man, after all, she had fought with him before.

The scene of having my knife taken away is still vivid in my mind.

Old Fu nodded slightly to indicate that he already knew the answer.

As a peak Nascent Soul stage expert, a monster-level figure who is about to touch the threshold of the Void stage, and also a close confidant of the Palace Master of the Northern Ice Palace, the reason why Fan Dongyin asked him to accompany Fan Luokui into the deep ice cave was to let him stop any possible variables that might cause trouble.

Yun Ping is clearly one of the variables.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry anymore~"

Old Yun soothed the agitated Ye Yuchan, as if comforting a small animal, and revealed a bright, sunny smile.

Seeing his expression, Ye Yuchan showed no sign of calming down. Instead, she opened her mouth wide, took a big bite, and bit Yun Ping's hand, which seemed to be teasing her.

"Wow! You must be a dog!"

Fortunately, Yunping reacted quickly enough and easily dodged Ye Yuchan's bite.

Ye Yuchan, her first attack unsuccessful, puffed out her cheeks like a goldfish, "You're the dog! I'm the rabbit!"

"No wonder he likes to bounce around so much..."

"Who's jumping around like that?!"

Seeing Ye Yuchan's arrogant demeanor, Yun Ping was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

He waved his hand and turned his back, saying, "Okay, okay, we won't mess with you anymore, let's go."

Ye Yuchan: "???"

What happened?

Has the old rogue changed his ways?

Shouldn't that old rogue be refuting me now? Why is he suddenly...?

Just as I was thinking this, Fan Luokui spoke up.

"Don't make too much noise here. The person we're about to meet isn't someone we can just meet casually."

"I know." Yunping nodded quite seriously, looking as if he were facing a formidable enemy. "It's Jizhi, I was going to see her anyway."

His appearance startled his two female disciples behind him. In their minds, their teacher rarely showed such an expression unless he encountered a particularly crucial problem, one that even he found difficult to solve.

Could it be that this meeting with Yin Hanxuebing harbors immense hidden danger?

With this chilling question in mind, Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue exchanged a glance, seemingly seeing their own unease reflected in each other's eyes.

Then, Fan Luokui led the way, followed closely by Yun Ping, with Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue behind them, and Elder Fu bringing up the rear—in this formation, the group stepped into the narrow passage.

On both sides of the passage were slightly raised and extremely cold stones. What was puzzling was that, despite the terrifyingly low temperature, there was not a single shard of ice covering the stones, as if the stones themselves were ice.

Ye Yuchan tried to touch these cold stones several times, but Yunping intercepted her halfway.

From Yunping's solemn expression, Ye Yuchan could tell that these stones were probably not something just anyone could touch.

"The further you go in, the closer you get to Yin Hanxuebing. Not just anyone can get close to her environment. If you touch anything that has been touched by her aura, it is very likely to freeze into ice blocks in an instant, and even your soul may be frozen to pieces."

Yunping's words echoed directly in Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue's minds, reminding them not to touch the stones carelessly.

Upon hearing that their very souls might be destroyed, the two dared not continue to act like curious children. They immediately became extremely obedient and walked forward, carefully making sure they didn't touch anything that was so cold it made them shiver.

A single touch could be fatal; who wouldn't be extremely careful?

—The old rogue was, of course, an accident.

This person walked with a completely swaggering gait, more casually than ever before, as if he were strolling through his own courtyard.

He had been looking serious, like he was about to face the final boss, but the moment he stepped into this passage, he was like a completely different person.

Jump as many times as you want.

Old Master Fu was clearly somewhat dissatisfied with Yunping's walking posture and his attitude of not caring about the coldness around him. He was getting old and had long been dissatisfied with these arrogant and ignorant juniors.

He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to rebuke something, but when he thought of the things Fan Dongyin had told him, he hesitated for a moment and swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

Time passed by, second by second.

Just as Yunping had told Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue earlier, as they went deeper, the surrounding cold became increasingly unbearable. Even though the two of them had powerful cold-resistant spells attached to their bodies, these spells were no match for the cold that seeped deep into their flesh.

Ye Yuchan shook her body with all her might, trying to use the trembling of her skeletal muscles to generate heat.

—That's completely impossible.

If Ye Yuchan, whose cultivation level is at the peak of the Xuanmen stage, is like this, then let alone our Zhang Ruoxue.

If it weren't for her strong personality holding her up, she would probably have frozen to death by this frost.

Yunping frowned. He had already anticipated this situation. It had come to this point, and it was no longer a matter of training the mind and spirit. He did not want his disciple to freeze to death in such a place so easily.

Then the storage ring, which resembled a treasure trove, once again shone brightly, and two bright red cloaks fluttered in the air, accurately draping over the two female disciples.

In an instant, a ray of red light transformed into a warm sensation that coursed through their veins. It was an indescribable warmth that, while unable to completely dispel the bone-chilling cold brought by the Silver Frost Ice, at least warmed their bodies somewhat.

"Phew..." Ye Yuchan let out a long breath, tilting her head back. The warmth flowing into her body gave her the illusion that she was soaking in a hot spring on a winter night. "So comfortable~~~"

Although Zhang Ruoxue didn't speak, the flush on her cheeks revealed that she was in a happy mood.

As for Lao Yun, who did all this, he neither complained about Ye Yuchan's "So comfortable" nor revealed Zhang Ruoxue's silent behavior, but chose to walk on his own.

This scene, as seen by the two female apprentices, immediately became an unnatural act.

The two of them slowed down and moved closer together.

"Ruoxue, I feel like that old rogue has lost his mind since he disappeared for a while and came back."

"I feel the same way. If it were a normal teacher, they would definitely say something about your comment, 'That feels so good~'..."

"And when we were arguing just now, he didn't continue to mock me, which is simply illogical..."

“Exactly!” Zhang Ruoxue nodded, but quickly looked at Ye Yuchan with a puzzled expression. “What is science?”

Ye Yuchan said she couldn't explain this profound term.

In short, the two of them reached the same conclusion—Yunping was probably in some kind of trouble!

But neither of them had a clue what the problem was.

Immediately afterwards—

"arrive."

Fan Luokui's words rang in my ears.

The sudden burst of brightness before their eyes bathed Ye Yuchan and her companion in a breathtaking azure hue.

It is no longer cramped, no longer dark.

Instead, there was a space as bright as the sun, with dazzling crystals hanging on the cold walls, and countless ice crystals and snowflakes dancing around like elves.

Ye Yuchan could swear that she had never seen such a beautiful scene.

To correct you—it may not be as beautiful as you imagine, but compared to the cold, dark space outside, this place is like a snowy wonderland.

Tabletops and chairs made of crystal-clear ice crystals are neatly arranged in one corner. Above them, exquisitely crafted wine glasses and wine jugs look like works of art by a master. Further away, there are ice crystal lamps that gather all the snowflakes in the sky. The snowflakes inside are constantly dancing with a bright blue light, providing a cool glow to this huge space.

The crowd stopped in their tracks, gazing into the distance. Their eyes swept across the river that, for some reason, hadn't frozen over, and flew towards the figure sitting sideways on the bed, which was radiating a chilling aura.

What a beautiful figure it was.

Even Fan Luokui, Jiang Yuetian, or any woman in the world who can be called a beauty cannot match her beauty.

To be fair, her features are not perfectly proportioned; in fact, they have a slight misalignment that doesn't conform to human aesthetic standards. It is precisely this unusual misalignment that brings about a fairy-like beauty that transcends ordinary people.

Yes, she doesn't look like a human; she looks more like a fairy.

That exquisite and elegant temperament is exactly the same as that of Emperor Wen Xuan Lei back then!

However, while Emperor Wen was dashing and unrestrained, the woman before him embodied elegance.
