Chapter 16 Yan Baibai's Promise



"Um... of course I know what's going on. Isn't it because... you're here?" Yan Baibai's expression changed rapidly. She looked at Mo Li with wide eyes and admiration: "Mo Li, Mo Li, you are so smart and so powerful. You can definitely guarantee my safety when the Ice Dragon is dying, right?"

Mo Li looked down at Yan Baibai, remained silent for a long time, and then...

"Tsk, that's natural. Go ahead, I'm here for you."

Then Mo Li let go of Yan Baibai's hand. Although he had suppressed the corners of his mouth very hard, Yan Baibai could still clearly see that they were bending upwards, and then quickly pressed down.

Yan Baibai: ...Help, she seems to have discovered something amazing!

Yan Baibai was deeply shocked, but she didn't have time to think about it. It seemed that the Ice Dragon couldn't hold on for much longer.

Yan Baibai summoned his life sword, flew on it, and soon landed beside the ice dragon's head.

"I can't believe you, a human, actually dare to come..."

The ice dragon still didn't change its quantifier. Its breathing was weak. Even with its eyes drooping, Yan Baibai could still see the surprise and gratitude in its eyes.

"Senior, do you have anything else to ask me? Just tell me, and I will tell you everything I know."

Yan Baibai thought about it and realized that the Ice Dragon had no other purpose in looking for her except this.

"You must be familiar with the Five Elements Sect. After all these years, how has the sect become?"

"Senior, I'm very sorry. I only heard of this sect from my master, so I don't know much about it. Thousands of years ago, the Five Elements Sect was one of the most powerful sects in the entire world of immortal cultivation. But in the hundred years since the death of the Ice Immortal Lord, the Five Elements Sect has been plagued by disasters one after another. Even its spiritual veins have gradually dried up. The number of disciples in the Five Elements Sect has become increasingly small, and eventually, even those within the sect have dispersed..."

Yan Baibai naturally knew the Ice Dragon's intention in asking this question. It just wanted to see what the sect where it and its master had been before, the sect that its master sincerely loved, had become like now.

"The current Five Elements Sect has long since fallen from its status as a high-ranking sect in the world of immortal cultivation. Many people no longer remember its existence. If my master hadn't taken me to pay tribute to the Ice Immortal Daoist Monarch, I wouldn't have known that there was such a prestigious sect in the world of immortal cultivation."

Yes, the Five Elements Sect had long since vanished into the depths of history. Yan Baibai didn't know if this was the ending the Ice Dragon wanted to hear, but she had to tell it the truth.

However, what the ice dragon cares about is his master.

"Ice Fairy Reverend? Is this the title people gave her? Everyone used to call my master the Ice Maiden. But why did your master go to pay tribute to my master?"

"So, the Ice Fairy Lord is actually your master." Yan Baibai suddenly became excited. "Did you know that in our world of immortal cultivation, there's a book dedicated to her life. It contains stories of her heroic deeds, slaying demons and monsters. Of course, there are also some stories of her hard work in reviving the sect. The Ice Fairy Lord is not only extremely powerful, but also extremely lucky. Many young people learned about the Five Elements Sect through this book. They all admire people like her and envy her good luck in always turning danger into fortune."

Yes, people in the world of immortal cultivation believe in luck the most. When a cultivator has good luck, his path to immortality will be much smoother.

"Is that so? It turns out there are still people in the world of immortal cultivation who remember the master." Binglong's tone was full of relief.

"Well, even if others don't remember, my master will remember. My master said that when she was young, the Ice Immortal Lord saved her life, and since then she decided to embark on the path of immortal cultivation. Unfortunately, by the time my master entered the world of immortal cultivation, the Ice Immortal Lord was already gone."

Yan Baibai felt a little down at this point, then suddenly thought of something and continued, "Do you know that there's actually a city in the world of immortal cultivation named after the Ice Immortal Lord? In the center of the city is a statue of the Ice Immortal Lord, carved from a thousand-year-old piece of ice that never melts. Many people go there to pay homage, and I heard that good things will happen to those who go there in the future."

After Yan Baibai finished speaking, she saw ice beads starting to fall from the ice dragon's eyes. She guessed that these were the ice dragon's tears.

"Human, is this your life sword?" The Ice Dragon asked, looking at the sword under Yan Baibai's feet.

"Yes, this is my life sword. Unfortunately, I can only use it to fly and kill some low-level monsters. Its lethality is not very great, but it can save my life without any problem."

Yan Baibai scratched his head, a bit embarrassed. This feeling was like when an elder at home pointed at your paper and asked, "Is this your test score?" Even if the elder didn't mean to judge you, you still felt embarrassed, always feeling that you hadn't given it your all, and felt ashamed. But for the sake of face, you still wanted to let the elder know that you had "tried your best."

"Human, what is your spiritual root?" the Ice Dragon asked again.

"I have dual spiritual roots of water and wood." Yan Baibai answered honestly.

"In that case, to thank you for bringing the good news to my master before I died, you should kill me now with your life sword!"

The Ice Dragon's tone was calm, clearly indifferent to his own life or death. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say it had rehearsed its own death countless times in its mind, so when the moment came, it wouldn't be surprised at all and could accept it calmly.

"You...why are you willing to do this? I think you can see that I am in cahoots with the people who want to kill you."
