As Wang Feng and Jiang Hanxi slowly stepped down, Wang Feng silently sensed everything around him.
In just a moment, Wang Feng sensed a secret chamber completely sealed by ice.
As Wang Feng silently probed with his divine sense, the figure of a middle-aged man imprisoned by ice chains came into view.
However, the middle-aged man exuded an eerie aura, and his skin seemed to have black threads wriggling around him.
Beside the locked-up middle-aged man, there was an old tortoise, as tall as a person, emitting a mysterious light, with its eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
At this moment, a cold figure slowly appeared beside the handsome yet eerie middle-aged man through some unknown means.
That figure was none other than... Bing Xian!
After Bingxian appeared, she stood in front of the figure locked by ice chains, her eyes gradually turning red, as if she was very distressed.
"Reign supreme..."
Bingxian stretched out her slender hand and tenderly stroked the face of the handsome man who was bound by ice chains, letting out a painful cry.
Upon seeing this scene, Wang Feng was startled, and even his body, which was being pulled by Jiang Hanxi, paused for a moment.
Is Ice Fairy's imprisonment a yandere-style act, or is there some other unknown reason?
And... could this be Jiang Hanxi's father?
Wang Feng's thoughts were in turmoil, and he was already considering whether or not to run away with Jiang Hanxi.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Hanxi seemed a little puzzled. Why did her husband seem so absent-minded after arriving here?
"Huh? Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing."
Wang Feng's thoughts were interrupted by Jiang Hanxi's cool and pleasant voice, and he responded to her twice, feeling somewhat awkward.
Wait a minute! Why would I run? I'm invincible now, the kind of person who can wipe out an entire world with a single blow, what am I afraid of!
After realizing what was happening, Wang Feng felt much more confident.
Moreover... that strange middle-aged man might not necessarily be Jiang Hanxi's father.
Click click click!
Just as Wang Feng's thoughts were in disarray, they had already arrived at the depths of the Ice Abyss, where an ice wall slowly opened in front of them.
The first thing they saw was an ice table and three chairs. Bingxian was already sitting on one of the chairs on the ice table, waiting for them.
That's an amazing speed at changing one's expression!
Wang Feng gasped inwardly; he had almost thought that the Ice Fairy he was seeing now was not the Ice Fairy from the secret chamber.
It wasn't until his divine sense took another look at the sealed chamber enclosed by ice that he confirmed it was indeed the Ice Fairy from before.
"What is it?"
Upon seeing the extremely cold and aloof Bing Xianqi, Jiang Hanxi's gentle expression, which had been gentle when facing Wang Feng, gradually turned cold.
Bingxian glanced at Wang Feng behind Jiang Hanxi, then looked at her, as if to say that he couldn't listen to this.
“My husband is not an outsider. You either tell me right now, or we’ll leave immediately.”
Jiang Hanxi gripped Wang Feng's hand tightly, even moving closer to him, showing her utmost protectiveness towards him.
Bingxian paused for a moment, hesitated for a while, and then nodded gently, gesturing for the two to come in.
As soon as Wang Feng and Jiang Hanxi sat down, the ice wall at the door slowly closed, and the atmosphere inside the ice room became strangely eerie.
"This time, beings from other planes descended into the Immortal Realm, causing the barriers between the Great Thousand Worlds to break and open, thus connecting with the Immortal Realm."
"I want you to go to the underworld in this vast world and find something for me."
Bingxian's voice was somewhat heavy; she wouldn't have called Jiang Hanxi over if she hadn't been forced to.
Why don't you go yourself?
Jiang Hanxi's voice was icy cold, carrying an irresistible sense of rejection; clearly, she was unwilling to help Bingxian.
"I really can't spare the time. The dark creatures from beyond the realm are stirring, and beings above the level of Immortal Emperor have descended upon the Immortal Realm."
"The Immortal Realm will inevitably be thrown into turmoil again this time, perhaps even more so than last time."
"I have been waiting for this moment for countless years, and I have no choice but to come to you."
Ice Fairy's usually icy expression, which seemed unchanged for millennia, now carried a hint of pleading, and her tone became noticeably softer.
Jiang Hanxi was slightly taken aback when she saw Bingxian looking at her in such a way that she had never seen before, and she gradually tightened her grip on Wang Feng's hand.
"What use do you have for that thing you're talking about?"
Jiang Hanxi was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, a fact that Wang Feng knew all too well, and in the end he relented a little.
"To save a person, a person who tried to break through to a realm beyond Immortal Emperor... but ultimately suffered a backlash and became corrupted..."
"who?"
A hint of doubt crept into Jiang Hanxi's icy expression, while Wang Feng, standing beside her, already knew the answer.
After waiting for a long time, seeing that Bingxian was still silent, Jiang Hanxi took Wang Feng's hand and turned to leave.
Just as the ice wall slowly opened, the Ice Fairy's cold voice rang out behind the two of them.
"Your...father!"
As soon as the words "Ice Fairy" were uttered, Jiang Hanxi stopped and stood in front of the already open ice wall for a long time.
Wang Feng was also somewhat shocked; he truly hadn't expected that the figure in the ice chamber was actually Jiang Hanxi's father!
"What are you looking for...?"
Jiang Hanxi did not turn around, and her voice was calm, but Wang Feng could clearly see that her body was trembling slightly.
Perhaps... it was because Wang Feng was by her side that Jiang Hanxi, who was feeling extremely distressed, could feel a little more at ease.
