"Come to think of it... Xiao Che, I remember that in six days, it will be your eleventh birthday, and I haven't decided what gift to give you yet."
When Xiao Xia Yuanba said this, he suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up: "That's right! I remember that you and the beautiful sister of the city lord had an engagement when you were a child. It was agreed that you would get married when you turned sixteen. My father and I have mentioned it many times. So, there are only five years left. It's going to be so fast."
As Xiao Xia Yuanba finished speaking, he tilted his head, as if imagining what Yun Che would look like after getting married.
When talking about this, Xiao Yunche did not show any excitement or anticipation. Instead, he looked disappointed: “She… I feel like she seems to hate me. Every time she sees me, her face becomes very fierce, and she will quickly avoid me.”
"Ah?" Xiao Xia Yuanba was puzzled: "Could it be... shy?"
“No.” Little Yun Che shook his head: “In fact, I roughly know why. When the child marriage was arranged, my parents were there. And at that time, not only was my grandfather very powerful, but my father was also extremely powerful.”
“Yeah!” Little Xia Yuanba nodded immediately: “I’ve heard Dad say this many times too. If Uncle Xiao were still alive, he would definitely become the next leader of the Xiao Clan.”
"Yes. So at that time, the city lord was very satisfied with this matter, and he publicized it for a long time... But my parents passed away soon, and I was found to be a disabled person... Everything was different."
"Moreover, just last month, I secretly heard Elder Xiao Gu from the Pharmacy say... that the City Lord has been in contact with the Sect Master recently, and seems to be thinking about... marrying her to Brother Yulong, and the Sect Master seems to agree..."
Xiao Yunche sighed softly, his face showing a sadness and loss that was inconsistent with his age.
"Humph! So what!" Xiao Xia Yuanba said angrily, "Even a child like me knows about your marriage to the city lord's sister! He is the city lord. If he doesn't keep his word, everyone in the city will laugh at him. How can he still have the nerve to continue to be the city lord!"
"Xiao Che! Xiao Che, where are you?"
Suddenly, a girl's worried cry came from a distance. Xiao Yunche stood up and said in a panic, "It's my aunt. Damn! If she knew that I was bullied again, she would be very angry."
“Ah…” Xiao Xia Yuanba also stood up quickly, and said quickly: “Then…then you can say that you accidentally fell into a mud pit when you were playing with me, which is why you are like this.”
“Well… that’s it.” Little Yun Che nodded, then he picked up his clothes and trotted towards the direction where the girl’s voice came from: “Yuan Ba, I’m going back first. We’ll play together next time.”
…………
…………
Yun Che shuddered and woke up from his dream.
He was still sitting in the temple, with the snow and wind fluttering quietly outside.
Yun Che stretched out his hand and pressed it on his head... Strange, how could he suddenly fall asleep?
Could it be that because he was in the temple, his mind and soul were defenseless and overly relaxed, so he fell into a deep sleep?
Moreover, I had a somewhat strange dream.
In the dream, there was a scene of himself and Xia Yuanba when they were children... But the strange thing was that in the dream, Xia Yuanba's talent in the profound way was frighteningly high, even higher than that of his sister Xia Qingyue. Moreover, his body was not strong, but extremely thin.
Besides, he had no brothers or sisters... that is, Xia Qingyue did not exist.
What’s even more ridiculous is that the person he married as a child was not Xia Qingyue, but a “city lord’s sister” whose name was vague.
Yun Che shook his head and smiled unconsciously…laughing at himself for having had such a strange and absurd dream for no apparent reason.
Moreover, I could clearly remember every scene and every word in the dream.
It was so clear that it seemed like it really happened.
However, since it was a dream, any absurd dream scenes were likely to appear. Yun Che would never waste his thoughts on a weird dream. His mind quickly turned to the scarlet catastrophe that was just around the corner, and he once again fell into deep thought.
He couldn't tell how long he had slept, and he waited in the temple for a long time, but Mu Xuanyin still didn't come back.
Under the impact of the horrible truth and the unknown future, Yun Che tried to calm down his mind, but he was still agitated for a long time. Finally, he sighed, turned his eyes to the outside, and thought about the years he had spent in the Snow Song Realm. Finally, he couldn't help but stand up and walk outside.
When he first arrived in the Snow Song Realm, he was arranged by Mu Bingyun to stay in the Snow Palace, but was blocked by the chief palace master Mu Fengshu. He forcibly broke through the assessment, shocking everyone and causing a series of turmoil, which also allowed Mu Bingyun to take him directly into the 36th Palace of the Ice Phoenix.
At that time, because Mu Bingyun had been poisoned for a thousand years and was dying, the 36th Ice Phoenix Palace existed in name only, with only Mu Xiaolan as a disciple, and Yun Che was the second one.
And now, as Mu Bingyun's strength recovered, with her strength second only to Mu Xuanyin in the entire Snow Song Realm, she rightfully became the chief palace master of the Thirty-Six Palaces of the Ice Phoenix.
As the starting point of his life in the God Realm, he wondered how the 36th Ice Phoenix Palace was doing now? It should be extremely prosperous and lively, no less prosperous than other Ice Phoenix Palaces, right?
Yun Che was thinking in his heart, and unknowingly, he had arrived above the Ice Phoenix Palace area.
The Ice Phoenix Palace area was still exceptionally quiet, with snow falling all over the sky just like the Holy Temple area. But it seemed... a little different from the past.
In the distance, the figures of several Ice Phoenix disciples were rushing towards the east in obvious haste.
“Hmm?” Yun Che’s brows twitched, and his spiritual sense quickly extended… Soon, from the not-so-distant east, he sensed an extremely chaotic aura.
That is... the direction of Mist Valley!
The Mist Valley is located in the Ice Phoenix Realm, but it is not a place of trial. Instead, it is a place to punish disciples who have committed unforgivable crimes!
Back then, when he and Mu Xuanyin were fighting, he relied on the instantaneous burst of the Dragon Soul Field and accidentally touched a place she shouldn't have touched... and then was thrown into the Mist Valley by Mu Xuanyin.
Therefore, he knew very well how terrible the Mist Valley was!
There were many kinds of mysterious beasts there, and they were distributed extremely densely... At the beginning, before he accidentally comprehended Duan Yue Fu Ying's "Hidden Shadow", he was in fear every step of the way, and narrowly escaped death several times... And that was only the weakest periphery of the mysterious beasts in Wu Jue Valley.
This situation... is it that a large-scale rebellion of mysterious beasts has suddenly erupted in the Mist Valley?
Mu Xuanyin and Mu Bingyun were obviously not there. Yun Che did not have time to think about it and rushed straight into the Mist Valley at full speed.
There was chaos in front of the Mist Valley. The roars of the mysterious beasts and the screams of the Ice Phoenix disciples shook the sky.
When the mysterious beast turmoil first showed signs last year, Mu Xuanyin immediately ordered the use of a barrier to seal off the Mist End Valley, so the Mist End Valley was peaceful for the past year.
But just now, the barrier that was extremely solid suddenly collapsed without any warning, and countless frenzied mysterious beasts rushed out like a surging tide.
Xuan Beast riots broke out all over the Snow Song Realm, and the Ice Phoenix Palace often went out to suppress them, leaving less than half of the people in the sect. In addition, the arrival of Luo Guxie caused a great disaster, and the elders and disciples of the Ice Phoenix Palace were greatly dispersed in order to deal with the aftermath.
However, it was more than enough to suppress the sudden collapse of the barrier in the Mist Valley.
When Yun Che arrived above the Mist End Valley, the sky below was filled with icy light, but the battlefield was not as large as imagined. The barrier that blocked the Mist End Valley did not completely collapse, but instead had a rather large gap. Although the beast tide was surging, it was suppressed layer by layer by the Ice Phoenix disciples.
Moreover, there are three Ice Phoenix Palace Masters present.
Yun Che immediately felt relieved. After all, this was the core area of the most powerful sect in the Snow Song Realm. Although the profound beasts in the Mist Valley were numerous and terrifying, there was no way they could actually harm the sect.
With three Ice Phoenix Palace Masters here, they can work together to repair the barrier after destroying the turbulent mysterious beasts. No wonder they only dispatched the Ice Phoenix Palace without asking for help from the disciples or elders of the Temple. It was indeed enough.
Yun Che glanced over and unexpectedly found a familiar figure.
Mu Xiaolan!
She had obviously worked hard over the years and had now broken through to the Soul Realm. And because she was Mu Bingyun's only direct disciple, the Ice Phoenix God-conferring Canon she performed was clearly more divine than that of other Ice Phoenix Palace disciples.
Obviously, it was Mu Bingyun who gave her more Ice Phoenix blood.
After not seeing each other for many years, Mu Xiaolan's appearance had not changed much... Except for her chest which was obviously a lot bigger, her temperament was much less innocent and naive than before, her eyes were a little colder and more domineering, and the ice sword in her hand danced with great ruthlessness, killing the mad beasts one by one.
Recalling the time when he first came to Yinxue and spent time with her, Yun Che felt quite emotional. He did not show up, and was no longer worried, so he prepared to leave.
But just as he turned around, his brows suddenly moved, and he turned back abruptly, looking into the depths of the Mist Valley. After a moment, his brows sank, and he muttered in a low voice: "No wonder the barrier was broken!"
After all, the Ice Phoenix Palace consisted of the elite level disciples of the Ice Phoenix Divine Sect. Amid the chaotic mysterious light and the sounds of fighting, the mysterious beast tide retreated again and again. Coupled with the presence of the three palace masters, the Ice Phoenix disciples suffered very few casualties. The corpses of various mysterious beasts were scattered all over the ground, and the blood-stained snow was dazzling and shocking.
If this continues, in half an hour, the mysterious beast riot in the Mist Valley can be completely suppressed, and after the barrier is resealed, it will not break out again in a short period of time.
But at this moment, an extremely terrifying roar suddenly came from the depths of the Mist Valley.
The roar sounded extremely far away at first, but as it fell, it was actually right next to my ears... Then another roar sounded, like thunder shaking the sky and the earth trembling. All the Ice Phoenix disciples who were suppressing the mysterious beasts were shaken violently, their eardrums buzzing, and some of them went black on the spot, and blood oozed from their seven orifices.
The three Ice Phoenix Palace Masters at the front of the battlefield were shocked at first, and then their faces changed in shock: "Wild Snow Divine Ape!"
"Those two Wild Snow Divine Apes surrendered hundreds of years ago and have been the guardian beasts of the Mist End Valley for many years. Could it be that even they..."
To their horror, two huge figures emerged from the thick fog... Their pupils, which were originally exceptionally calm and peaceful, were now filled with terrifying brutality and violence.
The Ice Phoenix Palace Master in the middle shouted in a deep voice: "Wild Snow Divine Ape, you..."
As soon as she said this, a loud roar shook the sky. The two Wild Snow Divine Apes swooped down at them without a word, roaring. Two huge gusts of air exploded in the air, covering a hundred miles.
The other two Ice Phoenix Palace Masters were already on edge. Their expressions suddenly changed, but they reacted instantly. They formed two sword formations and overlapped them in the air, heading straight for the oncoming Wild Snow Divine Ape.
“Wait! Don’t hurt the disciples!” the Ice Phoenix Palace Master in the middle shouted.
This roar caused the pupils of the two Ice Phoenix Palace Masters to shrink... The three of them had profound strength at the Divine King Realm, and the two Wild Snow Divine Apes were also powerful Divine King Beasts. And around them were a large number of Ice Phoenix disciples whose strongest was only at the Divine Tribulation Realm.
If five Divine King-level powers collided at this point... the aftermath would instantly annihilate countless Ice Phoenix disciples!
