Heavy Snow on the Mirror

Gui Xu prepared flying talismans for the two of them, and they went directly from Maple Fire Frost Pavilion to the Demon Palace.

Let's not waste time and take advantage of the journey to catch up.

From what happened after the desert to the cessation of hostilities in Jingzhou, and then to fixing the female lead's plot holes, Han Jiang never stopped talking.

Wen Xu listened quietly to Han Jiang's story and said, "Xiao Man has become a protagonist who can stand on his own."

"No way! Being the protagonist is too tiring, I'd rather be cannon fodder. Sister Wen is back, I can finally rest!" Han Jiang cheered, "The system has gone back, right?"

"Hmm. I heard the system returning to its original position when I woke up. The progress is only in the twenties. I don't know when we'll be able to go home."

"What's next in the story?" Han Jiang asked.

Wen Xu was also unsure, shaking his head and saying, "The rebels have long since deviated from the original storyline. From the moment we discovered Lei Mo's conspiracy ahead of time, the plot became uncontrollable. Logically speaking, Lei Mo was supposed to be lying in wait, and then launch the war between immortals and demons after Cang Jingmo became the Demon Lord."

"But the war between immortals and demons has already ended."

"It's over!" Wen Xu raised his voice.

“I haven’t gotten to that point yet.” Han Jiang scratched the back of his head. “That’s right, he still started the war between immortals and demons, it just happened earlier.”

"Is Hanqi already dead?"

"He's not dead."

Wen Xu: "The female lead will encounter a lightning tribulation during the war between immortals and demons, and then perish. The male lead won't be able to save her in time, and they will be separated by death. The female lead didn't die? Then what about the lightning tribulation?"

"I was struck by lightning."

"What!" Wen Xu lifted Han Jiang's face. "I was wondering why you've gotten so dark. Let me see, does it hurt? You were struck by lightning and you're still okay."

"It doesn't hurt much, not as bad as being bitten by a wolf or shot by an arrow. It's probably the benefit of spiritual energy dissolving the body; it can even dissolve the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so I'm fine."

Wen Xu: "You were bitten by a wolf? There's no rabies vaccine in this world. Are you alright? What about the arrow wound?"

"Everything's alright, don't worry," Han Jiang said. "Sister Wen, is there no more plot after the war between immortals and demons?"

"That's it. The war between immortals and demons was brought forward by more than half a year. It must have been a snowy day. Hanqi died in the cold and desolate place." Wen Xu didn't know what to do for a moment. The plot had already come to an end, and the difficulty of winning over the male lead had increased several degrees.

Wen Xu sighed: "Let's take it one step at a time. At worst, I'll just wait it out with Cang Jingmo. Anyway, the female lead won't have any interaction with him, so maybe I can develop feelings for him over time."

"Sister Wen, did I mess it up?"

"No, it's already quite remarkable that you were able to resolve so many things without magic or plot. Besides, regarding what you just told me about Guixu, I actually don't know anything about it. It's probably because the author didn't fill in the plot holes when writing the book, and the system found a way to make the logic consistent."

The story has now far exceeded the length of the original book, and many things that were not explained or did not make sense in the original book have been explained.

Wen Xu continued to comfort him, "You have to understand that the original book was only 100,000 words long. What could it possibly contain? It was practically a story cobbled together just for the sake of the male and female leads' tragic love and their flamboyant style. But things are different now. The story is wonderful because of you."

She apologized to Han Jiang, saying, "It's alright, just so-so!"

Wen Xu's mindset was completely different after he came back to life. It's true that you have to die once to know the beauty of life. Of course, including the one time in reality, Wen Xu died twice.

Things won't happen more than three times. Wen Xu won't die so easily this time.

Hanjiang is still enthusiastically adding details to the previous story.

Wen Xu really didn't expect the story to develop this way. She suddenly realized why the system had brought Han Jiang in.

It seems that the Cold Descent has nothing to do with this book, but in some mysterious way, it saved many people in the book, including Wen Xu.

Whether it's the original Wen Xu in the book or the Wen Xu who transmigrated into it, it doesn't matter; they are both her.

"Is there nothing else besides these things?" Wen Xu asked deliberately.

What else could it be?

“You and Cang Jingqi, huh?”

Han Jiang's face flushed red: "It's not certain yet."

In the narrative just now, Han Jiang gradually realized that she had long since become connected with this world, from not understanding the characters here to having something to say to everyone.

If the world of books is a dream, then let her sleep a little longer.

On this trip to the Demon Palace, Han Jiang said she was accompanying Wen Xu to conquer Cang Jingmo, but in reality, she was still worried about Cang Jingqi.

Moreover, she still owes Cang Jingqi an answer.

Cang Jingye was waiting for Han Jiang in the Demon Realm. When he saw the flying talisman in the sky from afar, he went over and immediately saw Wen Xu. He said, "Am I seeing a ghost? Aren't you dead?"

"Now we're alive!" Han Jiang said lightly. "Let's go to the Demon Palace first and explain everything together."

"I'm afraid that won't work," Cang Jingye said. "That woman has come out of seclusion. You'll have to see her before you can enter the Demon Palace."

"Then can't we meet?"

"Huh? Do you know how badly Cang Jingqi was injured? He had already overdrawn his spiritual power to control the power, and then traveled thousands of miles to the Four Continents Sect. He came back barely alive. I reckon that woman won't want to see any of the disciples of the Four Continents Sect."

"What's wrong with Cang Jingqi?" Han Jiang asked anxiously.

"You won't die for now. You two come with me to find a place to rest."

Han Jiang's face was full of worry: "I want to go into the palace first and take a look, please."

Wen Xu patted Han Jiang on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Third Prince, could you take Xiao Man into the Demon Palace? I can wait for you outside."

She knew she was no match for Han Jiang and Cang Jingye, and therefore couldn't get into the Demon Palace through any connections. Anyway, winning over Cang Jingmo wasn't urgent; she could do it after the Heavy Snow Festival.

The three decided to separate outside the Demon Palace, but before they had entered the Demon Realm, someone came looking for Cang Jingye.

"Third Prince, the Lord has asked you to take Miss Han to see her."

Han Jiang looked at Cang Jing Night Market with questioning eyes, and Cang Jing Night was also confused, but since he had been ordered to do so, he could only follow orders.

At least we can enter the Demon Palace openly now.

Wen Xu descended upon the entrance of the Demon Palace, where Cang Jingmo happened to be waiting.

"Miss Wen, please come in together," Cang Jingmo said.

"Aren't you surprised that she came back to life?" Cang Jingye asked Cang Jingmo.

"I myself have been brought back to life, so what's so surprising? It must be the work of the original poster."

Han Jiang nodded, thinking it would be a good opportunity to create a private space for the two of them, and said, "Second Prince, I will accompany the Third Prince to pay my respects to the Lord. I would like to trouble you to arrange accommodation for Sister Wen, as she will be spending the Snow Festival with me in the Demon Realm."

"I'm afraid that won't work. It's the two of us going to see Mother, so Miss Wen will have to be arranged by A-Ye."

Now Han Jiang was even more confused. Why did she have to go with Cang Jingmo?

"May I ask what's the matter? Is Cang Jingqi going?"

Cang Jingmo said helplessly, "I don't know either. Mother has always had her own ideas. My brother is still unconscious, but he is out of danger and will wake up soon."

Passing through the entire Demon Palace, one arrives at a place Han Jiang has never been before.

When in seclusion, they use spiritual power to create an illusion, concealing the world behind the Demon Palace.

Cangjing Palace.

There was nothing particularly special about the wooden signboard; it was just ordinary black ink, making it seem like any ordinary place.

However, when Han Jiang stepped through the door, she could clearly feel a resistance, as if something swept over her entire body, which was terrifying and made her very uncomfortable.

“The plaque is infused with demonic energy, which will repel spiritual energy. However, your constitution is special, so the repulsion should not be that strong,” Cang Jingmo said.

Han Jiang had indeed hoped to meet such a legendary woman, but after hearing Cang Jingye recount her past, she realized that this woman was not someone to be trifled with.

The interior of Cangjing Hall was not magnificent; instead, it was dimly lit and resembled an ancestral hall for ordinary people. The corridors were neatly lined with ancestral tablets and monuments, all belonging to the Cangjing family.

A small candle was lit every ten steps or so.

In the center of the hall, a huge sword was suspended in mid-air.

The sword was lowered from the roof of the palace, its tip hovering less than half a foot above the ground.

A sword, about the height of two people.

During the day, visibility was fairly good, and the words "Cangjing Sword" were clearly visible on the hilt of the sword.

And that person sat in the main hall.

He leaned back on the bench with a slightly languid air, his black and gold robe barely fitting properly, his long hair flowing freely down his back.

She didn't seem to care much about the two people approaching, but instead used her ring finger to touch up her lip rouge in front of the bronze mirror.

Once the repairs were nearly complete, he turned around to face the two of them.

Han Jiang finally saw the woman's face clearly. The rouge and powder were not enough to cover the wrinkles on her face, but her charm had not faded and her temperament remained.

Having held the title of Demon Lord for decades, the most powerful Demon Lord in legend is Cang Jing Chong Xue.

"Mother." Cang Jingmo bowed.

Han Jiang, unsure of what to address, followed Cang Jingmo and bowed.

"Are you Han Jiang, Han Tian's disciple?" Cang Jing Chong Xue asked.

Han Jiang nodded: "Yes."

“I remember seeing you before. How come I didn’t realize you were such an interesting girl back then?” She sat up straight, picked up a hairpin from the table next to her, and tied her hair up. “Come closer, let me take a look.”

Han Jiang took two steps forward.

"What's there to be afraid of? We'll all be family from now on."

What does this mean? Han Jiang turned her head and her eyes met Cang Jingmo's.

Cang Jingmo asked, "Mother, the matter between my brother and Miss Han is still undecided."

"I didn't say Cang Jingqi, I was talking about you and her." Cang Jing Chongxue smiled as she looked at Han Jiang.

Upon hearing this, both Han Jiang and Cang Jingmo were shocked.

Cang Jingmo strode forward, blocking Han Jiang's path: "Mother, what's going on?"

"I've heard about her and witnessed some of it myself. She's very capable, whether it was dealing with the rebels in Anzhou or Xiao Mo in the Four States Sect, and she can even resist spiritual energy disorder by dissolving her spiritual energy body," Cang Jing Chong Xue said. "A Mo, you must know that even the strongest person will die if they encounter spiritual energy disorder. We cannot have weaknesses, or it will destroy the entire Demon Clan."

"My health is deteriorating day by day. This delay in exiting seclusion is not my wish, but because I know my life is coming to an end. Of course, I want to pass on the position of Demon Lord to you, but passing the trial of the Azure Mirror Sword requires two people. You should know this. You need a wife."

Cang Jing Chongxue paused for a moment, pointed at Han Jiang, and said, "She is the best choice. She will accompany you through the trials and nurture a stronger next generation. Perhaps the next generation will not only inherit your control and suppression of spiritual power, but also have the ability to counteract and resolve spiritual power disorder."
