Chapter 110 Chapter 110 The truth is so plain. …
The northernmost part of Snow City is an extremely high mountain with snow on the top that never melts for thousands of years.
It is a sacred mountain in the snowy region. People only climb to the top of the mountain during annual sacrifices to pray to the Snow God for good weather and snow in the coming year, and for the tribe to thrive.
The holy mountain is called Manspam, and at the foot of the holy mountain, near the halfway point, there is a huge palace called Lake Palace.
At first glance, the palace appears simple and elegant, and also somewhat plain. In fact, every detail is carefully carved with patterns unique to the Snow Demon Clan, giving it a strong exotic feel.
The Snow Demon King's personal guards met the soldier guarding the city gate. After hearing what he said about the Sword Sect's young master, they nodded repeatedly and did not dare to delay and hurried to the palace.
He met with the Snow Demon King, half-knelt on the ground, and told him the truthful news.
"I understand. You may go down." The deep voice of the Snow Demon King came from the throne. The voice echoed in the spacious hall like muffled thunder.
The guard stood up, pounded his chest with his fist, saluted neatly, and retreated silently.
The Snow Demon King turned and went to the back hall.
The Lake Palace was extremely large, with many halls inside. The Snow Demon King walked through long corridors one after another. The palace servants passing by would move aside to the sides when they saw him, standing still and bowing their heads quietly.
After walking a little further, they arrived in front of a palace decorated in an ancient style. Two guards stood by the door. Seeing the Snow Demon King approaching from afar, they saluted and said, "King."
"Yeah." The Snow Demon King pushed open the door.
"Who?" A man's voice came from inside.
"Father, it's me." Xue Lan said.
"Oh, Ergou, come in quickly." The man just finished speaking, and seemed to be hit. "Ouch", he said aggrievedly: "Wife, why did you hit me?"
"You called your son 'Ergou' again! That's so ugly!" the woman scolded.
Xue Lan couldn't hold it in any longer, and he caught a glimpse of his two guards' faces twitching violently - they seemed to be trying to hold back laughter - and he quickly slammed the door shut with a bang.
Xue Lan rushed into the inner hall angrily.
"Father!" he said angrily, "Can't you just call me by my full name?"
In the inner hall, a man and a woman were sitting next to the chairs in front of the hall.
The man was tall and strong, with a rough face. In the mortal world, he would have a physique that could kill a cow with one punch.
The woman next to him was a little smaller, but also tall and slender, beautiful as a flower, with a pair of phoenix eyes that were both beautiful and sharp. She didn't look like she was almost a thousand years old, but rather like a young girl in her twenties.
Citroen was rubbing the back of his head, saying in pain, "My name is clearly Tielong, but you used to call me 'Big Dog' all day long. Then shouldn't my son be called Ergou?"
Xue Qing ignored him and said, "Son, come and sit down."
Xue Lan sat down below her mother without saying a word. She glanced coldly at her father as he came over and asked with a smile, "Son, are you angry?"
Xue Lan said sarcastically, "How dare I? Even if I've been yelled at for hundreds of years, even if my subordinates heard it, even if it's embarrassing for me as a king, you're still my father. What can I do? I still have to forgive you. Right, big dog?"
The resentment implicit in these words was so strong that Citroen could not help but hear it.
He is just naive, not stupid.
Citroen raised his eyebrows and replied with a smile: "You are right, Ergou."
Xue Lan: “…”
Ahhhhh, could someone please be kind and take my dad in?
Xue Qing sighed and held her forehead.
It's just unbearable to watch.
"Okay, stop smiling and talk about business." Xue Qing scolded softly, and the father and son restrained their attitudes. Citroen also sat up straight.
Xue Qing asked: "Lan'er, you rushed here, is there something important?"
"The guards reported that Gu Jingyun has entered the city!" Xue Lan gritted her teeth and said, "I have distributed Gu Jingyun's portrait to the whole city, and ordered all shops to raise their prices a hundred times for him, even the street vendors!"
Xue Qing: “…”
Citroën: "Well done, son!"
Xue Qing was speechless: "You two... forget it, just do whatever you want, I don't care."
Citroen said in a deep voice: "My son was severely injured, but I didn't go out to cause trouble for him. I have already given face to the Sword Sect. If it weren't for... "
He concealed the man's name, but everyone present knew who he was talking about.
The sword immortal who ascended to heaven a thousand years ago was once a close friend and matchmaker between Xue Tielong and Xue Qing. In other words, Xue Lan was able to be born thanks to the matchmaking of Jiang Qing.
Otherwise, Citroën might not be able to marry the most beautiful woman just by relying on his title as the most courageous man.
Xueqing shook her head and said nothing.
Instead, Citroen looked at his son and said angrily, "Although we snow demons always protect our sons, you can't be too weak, right? Back then, even a Divine Incarnation cultivator couldn't beat a Nascent Soul stage kid!"
Xue Lan: "He advanced to the God Transformation level halfway through the fight!"
Citroen: "That's even worse! The moment a monk advances is always the most vulnerable. Instead of taking advantage of his weakness to kill him, you gave him a chance to break through!"
"Well, to be honest, if I really have to go and find a place to fight for you, I'd be embarrassed to go! You were just two little brats fighting over treasure, and you even alarmed the old one, making it seem like we can't afford to lose." Citroen sighed.
Xue Lan: "I only have half my life left!"
"Gu Jingyun also died with half his life left." Citroen said, "Your home is nearby, and the guards picked you up in less than half an hour. I heard that he came secretly, and no one came to pick him up, so he flew back by himself with a seriously injured body."
Xue Lan was choked and speechless for a moment.
Citroen waved his hand and ordered, "Just raise the price and make some money to calm down. Just treat it as a big spender. Gu Jingyun is very rich anyway. Don't do anything behind my back, understand?"
Xue Lan snorted.
You're humming all the time. What kind of words are you talking about?
Xue Qing narrowed her eyes and said in a long voice: "Er Gou, did you hear that?"
"I heard it." Xue Lan was extremely angry and said, "Mother, can you please stop calling me by my nickname?"
Sons are born to be played with by their mothers, otherwise what is the point of their birth?
Xue Qing was in a good mood and teased him for a while on purpose. When she found that Xue Lan was really getting angry, she stepped on the bottom line and stopped.
The room was quiet for a while. Xue Lan squatted in the corner, feeling sad all by herself. She did not have any of the bearing and demeanor of a Snow Demon King.
Xue Qing took a sip of tea and caught a glimpse of her husband's heavy expression, as if he was thinking deeply about something.
"What are you thinking about? The cave that Qingsui left behind?"
Citroen sighed, "Yes."
Xue Lan pricked up her ears and quickly turned around to eavesdrop.
The sudden appearance of a cave dwelling of a cultivator at the peak of tribulation within the territory naturally surprised everyone.
When the cave was revealed, the giant sword that stretched for several days could be seen clearly throughout the snowy land.
It is obvious that it is impossible to keep it secret. The treasures left behind by the monks in the Tribulation Crossing stage are too attractive. There will definitely be an endless stream of monks from outside the domain coming to explore the secret realm.
The one who is closest to the water gets the moon first!
Xue Lan was originally ready to go in and take a look, and take away all the treasures first.
Unexpectedly, his parents stopped him in unison. They neither let any snow monster in nor told him the truth.
"Qingsui... Jiang Qingsui? Is that the cave left by the Sword Immortal?" Xue Lan was surprised and asked questions one after another: "Father, why didn't the Sword Immortal's cave stay in the Sword Sect, but in the Snow Realm? And why did he appear at this time?"
Citroen scratched his hair and said carelessly: "Well, that's a good question. I don't know either."
Xue Lan: “…”
Citroen claimed innocence.
"He came to Snow Realm to propose marriage for me. Xue Qing said she wanted to travel and observe me at the same time - I won't tell you about my love history - anyway, before we left, he suddenly said he wanted to stay in a cave here, delaying the trip for more than a month."
"When asked the reason, he didn't tell me, he just said -"
[It's just a precautionary measure. If the cave appears out of thin air without any external factors one day, and the phantom of the Cangming Sword appears in the sky, someone will come to the snowy land to look for me soon.]
[If no one comes, please go to the Sword Sect's Wu Nian Peak and see if there is anyone trapped in the cave where I often retreat, wanting to get out but unable to.]
“…”
Citroen spread his hands, "That's all I have to say."
Xue Qing frowned, "I asked my second brother many times, but he refused to tell me at first. Later, he secretly told me that it was a very handsome young man who carried the Wanggui Sword and called me dad. He was most likely his future son."
"Didn't he say he would ascend with the Wanggui Sword? He's already ascended, so how come a 'son' pops up?" Xue Qing was confused.
Citroen was jealous and said faintly, "It's been a thousand years, and this is the first time I've heard this. He told you a lot of secrets."
Xue Qing: "...We are sworn brothers, so please stop being jealous. Brothers and sisters cannot be together, and you said that yourself."
Xue Lan heard a lot of gossip and learned a lot about what her parents' generation had to say.
Thousands of years ago, the sword immortal moved the world with one sword. His cultivation was the best in the world. He was also handsome and elegant. His fame even spread to the Snowland. He was the dream lover of all the women in the world.
Xue Qing was also very interested in Jian Xian, but she had never thought about being with him. She just liked to see Citroen's funny expression when he was jealous.
She and Jiang Qingsui understood each other's intentions and knew what was going on.
After Citroen pursued her for a long time, Xue Qing finally agreed to give it a try with him, but he asked her to travel around the world - at that time, Xue Qing's cultivation was not good enough, and she would feel very uncomfortable when she left the snowy land and the temperature rose, so someone had to look after her.
In order to prevent the threesome from ending in tragedy, Citroën resolutely asked the three to become sworn brothers.
Xueqing still can't understand Tielong's train of thought.
It is said that after becoming sworn brothers and sisters, they cannot be together, but Tielong and she are also sworn brothers and sisters.
It is likely that Citroen, relying on the fact that he is half a month older than Jiang Qingsui, wanted to increase his seniority and openly called the Sword Immortal "brother".
Throughout the entire journey, the two of them were arguing over who was the boss, and in the end they almost had a "fight" on the spot.
Xue Qing was afraid that they would fight and hurt passers-by, so she stopped them immediately. After each of them cursed at them a few times, they glared at each other and put down their weapons.
On the other side, the couple had a little quarrel and blurted out a lot of gossip.
Xue Qing saw her son eating the melon with gusto, and couldn't help but cough lightly and change the subject: "...Since the cave was born, I have been waiting for a long time, and finally someone from the Sword Sect has arrived."
"If there is still no one among them holding the Wangui Sword, Tielong, you have to come with me to the Sword Sect to find out the truth. We can't wait any longer." Xue Qing said in a deep voice.
Citroen nodded: "Don't worry, I'll keep my promise to my second brother."
Xue Lan: "Mother, what about me?"
Xue Qing said as a matter of course: "You look after the house. As a king, where else do you want to go?"
Citroen laughed and said, "I'm going to travel with your mother and complete a request from an old friend. Why are you interfering?"
Xue Lan: "...Is this why father left the throne to me? I can't go anywhere."
The couple looked at each other in tacit understanding and nodded sincerely: "Why don't you also give birth to a child? That way you can go out."
Xue Lan: “…………”
Good dog parents.
