Chapter 17: Joy Becomes Sorrow



Click, click—

The ice dragon's body began to shatter from its forehead, and slowly, the cracks spread throughout the dragon's body. Finally, when Yan Baibai pulled out the sword, the entire ice dragon shattered into powder.

Suddenly, a fist-sized, misty ice bead flew out from the shattered ice. It landed next to Yan Baibai's hand, and then her finger felt a slight sting. A drop of blood dripped onto the bead and was instantly absorbed...

"Tsk tsk tsk, you little human are really lucky. This is the dragon ball of the thousand-year-old ice dragon, and you got it so easily."

Yan Baibai was also surprised. This feeling made him think of the word "finding a bargain." Furthermore, this wasn't just a thousand-year-old ice dragon's dragon ball. After it recognized its owner, Yan Baibai discovered that it contained a large storage space filled with rich spiritual energy. He wondered if the dragon ball could store spiritual energy, or if it could generate it, or if it contained the ice dragon's thousand-year-old spiritual energy.

There is a crystal coffin and four magic pills inside the dragon ball. The one in the crystal coffin probably belongs to the Ice Fairy Lord, and the magic pills belong to the Vine King, the Flower King and their disciples. It seems that all the things have been taken in by the Ice Dragon.

Yan Baibai looked at his sword again. This time, the sword was emitting a thick white mist. Yan Baibai swung a sword energy towards the distance with all his strength. The ordinary sword energy turned into a white dragon, rushing towards the destination with an overwhelming force. A huge explosion sounded throughout the valley.

Not only Yan Baibai, even the knowledgeable Mo Li was surprised.

"So powerful! No wonder in my memory, several powerful humans like you surrounded a great demon. When the demon was almost dead, a weak human killed it. It seems that the sect is cultivating the next generation like you."

Mo Li folded his arms across his chest, looking thoughtfully at the collapsing iceberg in the distance. There was no sarcasm or criticism in Mo Li's tone, and it seemed he also felt that there was nothing wrong with this approach.

"In fact, in most cases, demonic beasts will choose to self-destruct, taking with them all the creatures within a five-mile radius. Such a loss-making situation happened eight hundred years ago. Five hundred years ago, demons and humans joined forces to fight against the demons, and now the two races get along quite well."

Yan Baibai took the opportunity to reveal to Mo Li some of the changes in the world of immortal cultivation outside of Qianhua Wanxiang. She didn't comment on such matters. Humans, demons, and monsters coexisted on this continent, constantly fighting and harming each other for resources. She had no right to judge right or wrong at this moment, nor did she need to.

"Has the outside world become like this now? But I have always believed in one thing: those who are not of my kind must have different hearts."

Mo Li has always lived in the Myriad Flowers. In the eyes of the demons living in this secret realm, the outside world of immortal cultivation is not a good place, and they also have a fierce and evil impression of humans. And the memories that Mo Li has now also tell him that humans are not easy to get along with.

Yan Baibai didn't respond to Mo Li's words. There weren't any permanent enemies or friends in this world. With a thought, the ice bead flew to the center of Yan Baibai's forehead, then slowly shrank and faded before merging directly into Yan Baibai's forehead. In essence, it was absorbed into Yan Baibai's consciousness.

"Wow, is this the opportunity for the side quest? Host, you're amazing." The system looked at the extra ice beads around it and became excited. "Host, host, this ice bead is just right for your water spiritual roots, and the demon pill inside is just right for your wood spiritual roots. This is really great."

"Yeah, I was worried before. If I spent too much time on missions, wouldn't my cultivation be affected? Now that I have these, I don't have to worry at all." Yan Baibai was also very happy. She couldn't tell Mo Li about her joy. Fortunately, there was the system: "System, my current good fortune gives me an illusion. I feel like a lucky heroine, picking up good things wherever I go, hehe."

"Host, don't you have my system? Now you should think of yourself as a heroine who is using the system to cheat in another world, hahahaha..." In front of the screen, the system saw that the host had increased confidence in completing the task, and remembered that the host had successfully completed the previous tasks, and its confidence began to overflow. It also had a feeling that it was an awesome system that was as powerful as the upgraded face-slapping system.

The system was overjoyed and opened the system mall again, using the host's points to buy a large bowl of fruit.

Well... following a powerful host, the system should be able to live such an easy and comfortable life.

"Hahahaha, system, you are so right, hahahaha..." Yan Baibai was indeed very happy.

So, Yan Baibai, who seemed quiet on the surface, was recalling the joyful sound of "Hahaha" in her mind.

There is a saying in the world: excessive joy leads to sorrow!

"Ahhhhhhh help! Help!"

"Host, host, quickly get out of the way, get to the right."

Bang--

"Oh--"

"Host--"

Yan Baibai was seen running left and right in the charred stone forest with her skirt lifted up, and behind her was a fireball as big as a head, which seemed to be able to locate and track her, chasing Yan Baibai relentlessly.

After Yan Baibai threw out a water chain to wrap around the stone pillar in front, and then used the force to make a 360-degree spin, the red ball was finally confused and directly hit the big rock in front. The aftermath and gravel attacked Yan Baibai at the same time, and then Yan Baibai was buried in the pile of rocks.

Time goes back to a stick of incense...

Mo Li picked up two dragon horns that had not turned into powder from the debris of the ice dragon, then pulled Yan Baibai into the ice palace and inserted the dragon horns into the two holes on the ice plate in the center of the ice palace. The dragon horns fit perfectly into the holes. In an instant, the entire ice palace began to tremble, ice cubes fell from the eaves, and the ice palace was about to collapse.
