In the Ice Phoenix City, snow is flying.
As soon as Yun Che left the temple area, he saw a figure waiting there from afar. He was silent and had a thick layer of snow on his body, and it was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Yun Che, he quickly approached, smiled, and bowed to Yun Che politely: “Senior Brother Yun Che, it’s great to meet you again so soon.”
“Senior Brother Han Yi, thank you for keeping me waiting.” Yun Che returned the greeting.
Mu Hanyi shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "You are really embarrassing me by calling me Senior Brother. I hope Senior Brother Yun Che won't do this, otherwise Hanyi will be extremely frightened."
“Hahaha,” Yun Che laughed casually, “Well then. I’ll have to trouble Junior Brother Hanyi to take care of me on this trip to the Ice Wind Empire.”
Mu Hanyi quickly shook his head and said, "Brother Yun Che, what are you talking about? You can personally attend my father's millennial birthday celebration. This is a great surprise and honor that Hanyi, my father, and even the entire Bingfeng Empire have never experienced before. I am terrified by the kindness of the sect master, and I really have no way to repay him."
“Unprecedented?” Yun Che raised his eyebrows slightly: “Hasn’t there been such a thing before?”
“Senior Brother Yun Che has only been in the Snow Song Realm for a short time, otherwise, he would not have asked this question.” Mu Hanyi sighed, “Although Hanyi has always been proud of being born into the Ice Wind Imperial Family, but… how can he be qualified to have the sect master’s personal disciple attend the birthday of a country’s ruler?”
“Han Yi has not had time to inform my father about this matter. I’m afraid that if my father hears it, he will be so excited and happy that he won’t be able to believe it.” Mu Han Yi said sincerely: “And if the various sects in the Yinxue countries knew about it, I’m afraid they would be envious to death, haha.”
“…I see.” Yun Che nodded slowly. The status of a direct disciple of the Realm King was indeed extraordinary. He had gone from being a nobody who had just entered the Snow Song Realm to a status far superior to that of the rulers of various countries in just a few months. This was probably the most exaggerated status leap in the history of the Snow Song Realm.
“You just said that you haven’t had time to send a message to your father yet. In other words, you just learned about this matter?” Yun Che suddenly asked.
"That's right." Mu Hanyi nodded: "Hanyi should have set out yesterday, but when he was about to set out, he suddenly received a personal order from the sect master, so he waited until now, and never thought that there would be such a huge surprise."
Yun Che smiled and said, “To be honest, I just received the order from Master. It seems that Master has always been concerned about Junior Brother Han Yi.”
Mu Hanyi raised his head. His expression was unclear, but his voice was clearly trembling with excitement. “So, Hanyi doesn’t know how to repay you. Senior Brother Yunche may not know that this favor from the Sect Master is not only a gift to Hanyi, but will also greatly change the status of the Ice Wind Empire in the Snow Song Realm.”
Yun Che: “…”
"Oh! Look at me, I was so excited that I almost forgot something important." Mu Hanyi took out a piece of dazzling sound transmission jade: "I must inform my father about this immediately so that he can make preparations early."
“Wait a minute,” Yun Che stretched out his hand. “It’s better not to inform your father in advance about this matter. After all, I am going to congratulate you in the name of my master. If I prepare too much, it will lead to the guest taking over the host, which is not good.”
Mu Hanyi was slightly startled, then put down the sound transmission jade and said sincerely: "Senior Brother Yun Che is not only gifted, but also has an admirable broad mind. In this case, Hanyi might as well obey your orders and give Father a huge surprise."
Yun Che smiled and said, “In terms of broad-mindedness, I am far inferior to you.”
Mu Hanyi's smile froze slightly, and he sighed softly: "Senior Brother Yun Che, Hanyi is not a person who accepts all rivers. To be honest, I envy you... No, I should say I am jealous of you. I even had a grudge that lasted for several days."
Yun Che: “…”
Mu Hanyi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Senior Brother Yun Che may have heard that during the years Hanyi has been in the sect, the two things he most desired were to become the sect master's personal disciple and to win the heart of Junior Sister Feixue. But the result was..."
“When Han Yi lost to Senior Brother Yun Che at the Netherfrost Lake that day, he knew that he had lost miserably and it was not unfair at all. However, he still felt resentful and was depressed for several days. And half a month ago, the Sect Master promised Junior Sister Feixue to Senior Brother Yun Che…” Mu Hanyi closed his eyes. Although he was quite calm, his tone and eyes showed that he had not completely let it go.
Mu Hanyi did not continue speaking, but smiled bitterly and said, “These words will surely make Senior Brother Yun Che laugh.”
“No,” Yun Che said, “The two most important things in life were taken away by others. Even if you are a true saint in the legend, I am afraid it is impossible to let it go easily. I can only be grateful and admire you for telling me frankly.”
Mu Hanyi still shook his head: "Although Senior Brother Yunche's profound strength is still low, his talent is much higher than Hanyi's. It is only natural for the sect master to choose Senior Brother Yunche as his personal disciple. Junior Sister Feixue has transformed from a celestial being into a human. In the Snow Song Realm, only Senior Brother Yunche is worthy of her. My thoughts about her have been nothing but self-delusion from beginning to end. Hanyi actually knew all this a long time ago... It's just that I have been depressed and uneasy during this period. Now that I have said this in front of Senior Brother Yunche, I finally feel much better."
“Senior Brother Yun Che,” Mu Hanyi looked at Yun Che with an extremely sincere gaze, “Hanyi has something to ask for your help.”
"……you say."
“After the Ice Phoenix girl loses her Yuan Yin, her progress in cultivation will be much slower. In addition, Senior Brother Yun Che already has a very high talent,” Mu Hanyi took a breath, “One day, his cultivation will surpass Junior Sister Feixue. I just hope… Senior Brother Yun Che can always treat Junior Sister Feixue well.”
The fact that Mu Feixue was rejected by Yun Che had not been made public. In addition, Mu Feixue had rarely appeared in the Holy Temple during this period of time. Therefore, except for a limited number of people, everyone in the sect had already believed that Mu Feixue had been serving Yun Che in the Holy Temple... After all, that was the order personally issued by the sect master at the sect meeting.
“…” Yun Che nodded: “Don’t worry, I will never let my woman suffer any injustice.”
After Yun Che finished speaking, he turned around and looked towards the vast white distance. A strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
This person...
"In this way, Han Yi can rest assured and have no regrets." Mu Hanyi sighed.
“By the way, Master said that there will be another person coming with us,” Yun Che said, “Junior Brother Han Yi, do you know who that person is?”
Mu Hanyi shook his head: "I don't know, but..."
He turned around and looked behind him. Soon, an ice boat came through the snow in the white sky, and on the ice boat stood two ice-blue female figures.
It was Mu Bingyun and Mu Xiaolan.
With a flash of cold light, the ice boat stopped in front of them.
After not seeing each other for many days, Mu Bingyun was the same as before, like a fairy descending from the earth, with a cold and flawless beauty that made it impossible for anyone to have any blasphemous thoughts about her. Behind her, Mu Xiaolan was dressed in blue, with obvious excitement on her pretty face.
“Palace Master, could it be that the person who went to the Ice Wind Empire with us is…” Yun Che asked with a look of surprise.
“Yes, it’s me.” Mu Xiaolan stepped forward, smiling with pride. When she turned to Mu Hanyi, she suddenly became much more respectful: “Senior Brother Hanyi, thank you for your care.”
“Yun Che, Han Yi,” Mu Bingyun said, “Xiao Lan’s parents will definitely be present at the Ice Wind King’s millennial birthday celebration. So, let Xiao Lan go with her to reunite with her parents. You must take good care of her along the way.”
"Yes, Hanyi guarantees with his life that Junior Sister Xiaolan will come and go safely. Please rest assured, Palace Master Bingyun." Mu Hanyi said respectfully and solemnly.
“Yes.” Yun Che responded, secretly groaning in his heart: I went to the Ice Wind Empire to do great things! Now I still have no idea how to get that sacred object that protects the country, and now I have sent a big burden...
“Han Yi, you were supposed to leave yesterday. It’s a little late now, so just take this ice boat. You should be able to catch up.” Mu Bingyun left the ice boat and looked at Yun Che meaningfully.
The ice boat floated up into the air, as fast as a stream of light, heading straight to the north.
“Yun Che, how does it feel to be the sect master’s personal disciple?” Mu Xiaolan was full of curiosity: “Will the sect master… be very strict?”
“Of course he is strict.” Yun Che sighed leisurely, “Palace Master Bingyun is still the most gentle.”
Although he said so, his heart was still full of turmoil... Mu Xuanyin had obtained the Golden Crow Burning World Record from Huo Rulie for him, and she wanted the complete Qionglong Heart for him. Thinking about it now, in order to allow him to increase his profound strength quickly, she was willing to sacrifice a large number of the Ice Phoenix women's essence. This must be a huge price that has never been seen in the history of the sect. Even if the materials for the Qiankun Wuqiong Pill were really found, it would definitely cost a huge price... Mu Xuanyin did not hesitate.
Why is she so nice to me?
Is it really just because I became her direct disciple and saved Mu Bingyun's life?
“Ah! You can’t say that!” Mu Xiaolan was slightly startled: “If the sect master hears you, you’ll be in trouble.”
“Yes, yes, I will follow Senior Sister Xiaolan’s instructions.” Yun Che said weakly. In his heart, he had been thinking about how to bring up the matter of the Qilin Horn after arriving in the Ice Wind Empire.
“Humph, even if you become the sect master’s personal disciple, you should still listen to Senior Sister.” Mu Xiaolan’s lips curled up slightly: “If you really remember Master’s kindness, come back to Ice Phoenix Palace more often, don’t just say it.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Yun Che nodded mechanically.
Mu Hanyi looked at them with astonishment, obviously shocked by the way they addressed each other, and then said with emotion: "Senior Brother Yun Che is such a charming person."
“Tsk,” Mu Xiaolan snorted and retorted, “That’s because Senior Brother Han Yi doesn’t know his bad side… Humph, he’s a bad guy anyway. Fortunately, Senior Brother Han Yi is a man. If he were a girl, she would have to be more careful.”
“Hahahaha,” Mu Hanyi laughed loudly, and then his eyes became distant: “Men should be romantic, otherwise it would be a waste of life. However, Senior Brother Yun Che already has Junior Sister Feixue, so I’m afraid it will be difficult for him to find a woman who catches his eye anymore.”
“Humph, he must be so proud of himself.” Mu Xiaolan lowered her head unconsciously and said in a low voice.
The ice boat sailed against the wind, as fast as a stream of light. Along the way, listening to Mu Hanyi telling about the history and customs of the Ice Wind Empire, time passed quickly.
In less than a day, the ice boat finally flew into the border of the Ice Wind Kingdom and then quickly approached the central imperial city.
At this time, Mu Hanyi took out the sound transmission jade and directly transmitted it to the Lord of Bingfeng: "Father, I am close to the imperial city and will arrive in a moment. There are two distinguished guests from the sect accompanying me."
It is the king’s thousandth birthday. Today, the Ice Wind Imperial City is exceptionally lively. Countless guests have come from thousands of miles away, and the atmosphere of the entire imperial city has become exceptionally different.
Mu Hanyi had just put down the sound transmission jade when a small black boat flew over at high speed from the side, getting closer and closer, and heading straight for the center of the imperial city.
Mu Xiaolan looked up and saw the two figures standing at the front of the small mysterious boat. Her beautiful eyes suddenly widened and she uttered a trembling voice of surprise and excitement: "Dad-Mom!!"
