The old man feeding the horses sighed and said, "I heard that when Meiniang's mother gave birth to her, she was bitten by the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm of Changbai Mountain! Meiniang's mother died after giving birth to Meiniang! And Meiniang was born with a cold attack on her heart. If it weren't for Meiniang's father, Wu Sanyong, using his power to seal her heart, his daughter would have died long ago! According to the Wu clan chief, his power is limited, and Meiniang's cold poison is getting stronger and stronger. Next December 25th, the Snow Festival, will be the day Meiniang's cold poison flares up and she dies."
Bai Su couldn't help but shed tears upon hearing this.
The old man feeding the horses said, "Young lady, you and Meiniang are not related, why are you so heartbroken?"
Bai Su cried, "Mei Niang and I have been corresponding for seven or eight years, and we are as close as sisters."
The old man feeding the horses exclaimed in surprise, "So that's how it is! I'll go and call Meiniang over right away!"
After saying that, the old man rode his horse to Meiniang's side and whispered a few words. Suddenly, the 1.7-meter-tall, 19-year-old girl with a ponytail spurred her horse and charged towards Bai Su!
"Gui!!!" Wu Meiniang pulled on the reins, and the horse reared up. She jumped off the horse and hugged Bai Su in her arms!
"SuSu, you've finally arrived!"
"Sister Meiniang! I'm so afraid I'll never see you again!"
The two women embraced each other, just like sisters! This was their first time meeting!
Bai Su pointed at Lin Caogen and said, "Meiniang, this is Brother Lin! He's the person I love, and he's also the one who saved me!"
Wu Meiniang was taken aback and asked, "The person who saved you? What danger did you encounter?"
Bai Su, with tears streaming down her face, recounted how her clansmen intended to burn her as a sacrifice to the gods. Wu Meiniang was furious!
She flicked the leather whip in her hand, making a cracking sound in the air!
"How despicable! A bunch of fools! It's a pity that my sister's cultivation is only at the third level of Body Refinement! Otherwise, I would definitely go to the sea and beat all those heinous sea people to death!"
Wu Meiniang suddenly turned to Lin Caogen and thanked him, "Brother Lin! Thank you so much for saving my little sister! I heard she likes you a lot! So I'll call you brother-in-law from now on!"
Lin Caogen smiled. He had indeed grown quite fond of Bai Su after spending time with her. He didn't object to Wu Meiniang calling him brother-in-law.
Just by looking at Wu Meiniang's face, one could sense that this woman exuded a chilling aura, and her complexion appeared somewhat pale! If her cheeks had a touch of rosy color, she would truly be a beauty in the snow, with a heroic and dashing air!
"I heard the old man who fed the horses say that Miss Wu's cold poison has entered her body and is very likely to attack her heart meridian. Is that true?"
Lin Caogen couldn't help but ask.
Wu Zetian sighed and said, "The whole grassland knows about this! December 25th next year, the Snow Festival, will be the day I, Wu Zetian, die!"
Lin Caogen asked again, "Is there really no way at all?"
Wu Zetian smiled and said, "Of course there is a way!"
