Whether Wang Mo ignored the Ice Princess's warning or was too worried about Shu Yan, the flame in his hand continued to burn, its orange glow starkly out of place in the ice palace. Seeing this, the Ice Princess frowned, a flash of annoyance in her eyes.

Her anger surged like a volcano about to erupt: "Ye Luoli Magic, icy drifting, like snow crystals, ice extinguishes flames!" With a flick of her sleeve, powerful ice and snow energy surged forth like a raging white wave.

Wang Mo's flames swept outwards with unstoppable force, instantly extinguishing the orange flames and leaving only a wisp of smoke slowly dissipating in the cold air, as if the flames had never existed.

Lori hurriedly whispered to Wang Mo, "Master, the Ice Princess is the master of ice and snow power. She hates fire the most. Please don't use fire magic for now."

Wang Mo watched the flames go out, feeling a pang of sadness. For her, the flames were a symbol of hope, a weapon she used to fight against the ice and snow in this cold world. Now, they were so easily destroyed, just as her hope had been ruthlessly shattered.

But she quickly mustered her courage and looked at the Ice Princess, who was resting her chin on her hand and had a haughty expression, and said, "Ice Princess, please listen to us. We have come here hoping that you can help us save Shu Yan for the sake of Fairy Xinling. He has been punished by time, and only your ice and snow magic can suppress his aging."

"You are the Water Prince's sister, you must have a kind heart and will help us, right?" Wang Mo's tone was pleading, her eyes full of expectation, clear and sincere. However, in the eyes of the Ice Princess, this seemed somewhat hypocritical and naive. After all, she had long lost faith in humans, and in her eyes, humans were the culprits who destroyed nature.

Princess Ice sneered, "Hmph, why would I waste so much of my immortal power to save a worthless human? His life or death is none of my concern; saving him will only bring me trouble."

"What good can you possibly offer me? Don't think you can get my help with a few empty words. You humans always dream too much." Her voice echoed through the palace, full of mockery and disdain, as if she were looking at a group of presumptuous ants.

Upon hearing this, Jianpeng flew into a rage. He was already quick-tempered and couldn't tolerate such arrogant behavior: "Hey, how can you be so selfish? Your heart is colder than ice; you're a cold-blooded animal!" The Ice Princess's eyes flashed coldly as she looked at Jianpeng, her gaze seemingly capable of freezing him.

"What an arrogant and ignorant human! Liangcai, is this the master you chose? So ill-mannered and so arrogant, you will pay the price." As she spoke, she chanted a spell: "Ye Luoli magic, gather the power of ice and snow, zero to freezing point."

In an instant, the temperature plummeted, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze solid. Ice crystals rapidly spread beneath Jianpeng and Shuyan's feet. These ice crystals, like living demons, continued to grow and expand, emitting a terrifying "sizzling" sound, as if demonstrating their power to everyone.

In just one minute, Jianpeng was completely frozen, turning into a lifelike ice sculpture. The angry expression on his face was frozen in that moment, as if time itself had stopped due to the power of the ice and snow. He was like a specimen frozen in anger.

Seeing Jianpeng instantly turn into an ice sculpture, Wang Mo was filled with terror. Her body trembled slightly, and her face turned pale. But she still suppressed her fear and mustered her courage to plead with the Ice Princess: "Ice Princess, please, please release Jianpeng and Shuyan."

We know that humanity has made many mistakes in the past, but we will try our best to correct them. We will definitely protect the environment better in the future and will not let you down again. Please trust us one more time; we are sincerely asking for your help.

Wang Mo's voice was choked with sobs, and tears welled in her eyes, threatening to spill at any moment. She tried to move the Ice Princess with her sincerity.

But to the Ice Princess, these promises were nothing but worthless empty words. She was already tired of such powerless excuses from humans. In her heart, human promises were like bubbles in the ice and snow, easily burst.

Princess Ice sneered inwardly. Humans always talked a good game, but never actually took any action. She decided to show no mercy and unleashed her newly learned powerful spell: "Ye Luoli Magic, gather all the power of ice and snow, blizzard!"

With a wave of her hands, she unleashed a powerful spell, and a blizzard, like a ferocious white beast, swept towards Wang Mo and the others with a destructive force. The howling wind was like the roar of a demon, its deafening sound threatening to tear eardrums apart.

The flowers rained down on the group like cannonballs, each snowflake like a sharp knife, cutting into their skin. Instantly, everyone, including the Water Prince, was blown out of the Ice Crystal Palace's range. Their bodies tumbled uncontrollably in mid-air, like leaves in a storm, utterly powerless against this immense force.

Fearing the Water Prince would return to settle scores, the Ice Princess gritted her teeth, unsealed her primordial spirit, and unleashed the power of her original spirit to create an indestructible barrier. The barrier shimmered with a ghostly blue light, like an ancient seal, radiating a mysterious and powerful force, completely enveloping the Ice Crystal Palace and preventing anyone from entering. After casting this powerful spell, the Ice Princess felt her strength drained, her body swaying precariously, like a flower about to wither in a storm.

She watched her hands grow increasingly ethereal, knowing her power was waning. But to protect herself and the Ice Crystal Palace, she resolutely decided to freeze herself into a deep slumber, gathering strength in her sleep. She slowly walked towards the massive ice coffin at the center of the Ice Crystal Palace, each step arduous, yet her eyes unwavering. She lay down in the coffin, her eyes resolute, silently vowing that when the Queen opened the gates, she would make those who had destroyed the environment pay a terrible price, teaching them that the power of nature was not to be underestimated, and making them deeply regret their actions.

The Water Prince was caught off guard and was struck and blown away by the Ice Princess's magic. When he came to his senses and tried to re-enter the Ice Crystal Palace, he was blocked by the barrier.

He reached out to touch the barrier, but was bounced back by a powerful force that made his arm go numb. Seeing this, Wang Mo was frantic. She rushed towards the barrier, trying to break through, but was also mercilessly bounced back and fell heavily to the ground, her body hitting the snow with a dull thud.

Looking at the increasingly weak Shu Yan, her eyes were filled with pleading. She looked at the Water Prince, tears welling up in her eyes: "Water Prince, please save Shu Yan!" Her tearful appearance evoked pity, and her eyes were filled with helplessness and worry for her companion.

Looking at the kind and brave human girl, the Water Prince's heart softened, and he immediately decided to use his water power to suppress Shu Yan's time punishment. He walked to Shu Yan's side, knelt down, and his hands emitted a soft blue light that flowed gently like water onto Shu Yan's body.

It was as if a spring of life was nourishing the parched land. However, this power of water was not an ice and snow spell, and its effect was limited. Although Shu Yan's condition improved, he was still left with aftereffects.

He became extremely weak, his hair turned gray, and his once vibrant face was now filled with exhaustion, as if time had accelerated its passage on him. He lay weakly on the ground, as if he had just survived a life-or-death ordeal.
