Chapter 673: A Drop of Water Melts from the Iceberg



Seeing him like this, Wang Jinlong angrily slammed the wooden table, causing it to scatter into wood chips. The deep wrinkles on his old face were like ravines, and when he spoke, it was like spitting out frost.

"We must find a way to get rid of him."

"We have lost face now, so let's poison his food and sprinkle the Ecstasy Powder in the side hall to slowly paralyze him. It's like boiling a frog in warm water."

Wang Shixing was silent most of the time, but now he was full of opinions about Xia Xiao, no matter how cruel he was. Poisoning was indeed more insidious, but they used paintings to hide the poison, which was actually not a good move. The people living in the high clouds were not elves, but a group of lunatics.

Wang Jinlong and Wang Yinlong nodded and decided to start the process tomorrow. Judging from the efficacy of the drug, Xia Xiao would be poisoned in just three days, and this period of time would be perfect for Wang Yaping to adjust. But when Wang Jinlong went to see Wang Yaping tonight, he was turned away, which was a rare turn.

"What are you doing in there?"

"Practice."

Wang Yaping's voice was not as outstanding as her appearance. Perhaps because she hadn't spoken for a long time, her voice was a little hoarse, but it was difficult to hide a sense of confusion, which made Wang Jinlong frown outside the door, silently feeling her in the room.

"Xia Xiao said a lot today, what do you think?"

"I don't remember, but his demonic energy is very strong."

This answer was obviously what Wang Jinlong wanted, but Wang Yaping was still too young to lie, so her voice trembled a little, but Wang Jinlong did not get to the bottom of it, let alone dig out her thoughts. He also heard what Xia Xiao said, and whether such confusing words would work on Wang Yaping depended on his attitude. If Wang Jinlong kept urging or taking a tough attitude, she would only believe what Xia Xiao said.

Therefore, Wang Jinlong did the opposite. After living for so many years, isn't he a cunning old fox?

"You've worked hard, carrying the great cause of Yun Country on your shoulders. Take a good rest these days. We'll talk about Xia Xiao's matter in three days. Don't worry."

Wang Yaping replied coldly with a "good" and Wang Jinlong glanced away coldly. He was worried about many things, including Xia Xiao and that woman, but more importantly, Wang Yaping. Over the years, Yun Guo had put in countless efforts to train her, and now he couldn't let her have any problems with her thinking. But he also knew how to control her.

In the room, Wang Yaping did not seem relieved by Wang Jinlong's departure, but bit her fingers tightly, and did not let go even when blood flowed out. She sat on her cold bed, not leaning against the wall or wearing any clothes, just standing there in a daze, staring at a corner in the dark.

There was no fluctuation on her face, but her eyes were full of emotions, some were like discovering a new world, some were timid, but more were confusion. She didn't want to believe anything Xia Xiao said, those words were rejected by her instinct, but the scene at that time was vivid in her mind. Xia Xiao pressed her down so forcefully, and every word spewed out from his teeth, shaking her heart.

A drop of blood dripped down her fingertips and landed on the bed sheet, staining it red, but Wang Yaping didn't notice it. She didn't want to leave, she couldn't leave because she couldn't break through the barrier. Thinking of this, Xia Xiao's roaring words echoed in her mind.

"It's not that you can't escape, you just don't have confidence in yourself, otherwise how could the people of Yun stop you? Or are you content with the status quo and think that this is how your life should go on?"

Wang Yaping had never thought about how to live her life before, but she kept thinking back and found some things she wanted to try from Xia Xiao's words. He was not interested in spring flowers and autumn moons, nor in money and prosperity. As for love and friends, she did not desire to have them, she just wanted to see the snow-capped mountains and icy peaks.

The Cloud Kingdom only has unchanging scenery. The daytime is always monotonous, and the starry sky at night makes people feel cold. No matter how beautiful the stars are, they are far away and cannot be touched. No matter how bright the moon is, it is just a place for villains to live and disturb people's elegance.

Wang Yaping wanted to go to a deserted place, where there was a snowy mountain with a pine forest. Snow pressed on the branches, and the snow covered the mountain. The mountain was majestic and mysterious, with a peak standing up, like a single horn on the forehead of a dragon beast, very steep and sharp. It was difficult for ordinary people to climb in the wind and snow, but she stood on it in a dark blue dress, watching the people below looking up at her.

In the past, whenever Wang Yaping had such thoughts, she would feel a strong sense of guilt, which made her very self-disciplined to stop thinking about it and forget it. But this time, she fell into it and found that under the seemingly quagmire, there was a clear and transparent sea. Under the guidance of the gentle giant whale, she went to another door and soon forgot the way she came.

Wang Yaping didn't know where the door led to, but the dark blue color was very familiar. But soon, the suffocating feeling made her come back to her senses, and she felt a little lost. Could she really not see the snow-capped mountains and icy peaks? She wanted to go very much, but there was a resistance, not because she was timid, but because she didn't know where to start.

She had never left Yun Country, and even if she had all kinds of reasons and was eager to go, she could not get the approval of the elders. But she really wanted to go, and it was the first time in her life that she felt that way. She couldn't wait to go to the holy place in her mind, where she could be alone and think about her life. This would not be considered a betrayal of Yun Country, and she would come back. She kept telling herself this to persuade her heart that this was nothing.

But in the end, she still didn't have the courage to go to Wang Jinlong. She knew that the latter would definitely not agree, and would even scold her and activate the mark engraved on her body.

I heard that Xia Xiao also had a mark, through which he possessed the complete five elements and the ability to communicate with the Emperor. Wang Yaping was not so lucky. The mark on her body only brought pain. It was a rope that tied her up, and also a sharp iron hook that pierced into her flesh.

Wang Yaping, who was not stupid, thought about the question that she would not normally think about, and soon got the answer. As Xia Xiao said, the reason why she could not leave Yun Country was because the people here treated her as a tool.

The tool should be held in hand when in use and placed aside when not in use. But even if it is not in use at the moment, it cannot be left to run around until she dies. Her death is what the elders have been looking forward to. Only the creation of a deity can attract their attention. Otherwise, Wang Yaping's life and death have nothing to do with them.

Without friends, relatives, or anything to cling to, Wang Yaping always felt that Yun Country needed her. Just as the elders said, she had a heavy mission on her shoulders. Thinking about it now, it was just a nice thing to say. The more I think about it, the more disappointed and frustrated I feel.

Falling on the ground, Wang Yaping, who was already in a state of sadness, looked ashen. As long as she took Xia Xiao's words seriously, she would lose all her energy. In the past, she would comfort herself by saying that fate was like this, like the shape of a rock, carved by nature, and it was impossible to change herself. But the external force has arrived, and although it is not as good as the work of God, it also has an axe, chisel and chisel, and everything has hope of change.

A crazy idea was like a candle in a storm, constantly swaying, extinguishing and lighting up, lighting up and extinguishing. Finally, Wang Yaping closed her eyes, and a tear slid down her smooth cheek.

Her iceberg was finally melted, even if it was just a drop of water, it still changed. But the iceberg soon closed again, and she chose to give up, without struggling, disguising her desire with numbness in her eyes.

Xia Xiao knew this would happen. It would be strange if just a few words from him could make a person change the ideas that he had held for more than 20 years. But they will meet again, and Xia Xiao will have something to say then.

Wang Yaping fell into a deep sleep in the thick fog, as if she was drunk. When she woke up, she had forgotten everything she had thought about. But Xia Xiao sat in the hall, his face gradually becoming confused as he blended into the darkness. He really couldn't understand why he couldn't summon Heihuang even with his magic energy, and there was no trace of Quedan.

Relying on enemies is not Xia Xiao's style, but his strength is obviously not enough to break through the Yun Kingdom's barrier. However, with Wang Yaping's addition, it may not be the case.

Thinking of this, Xia Xiao smiled strangely and evilly. Originally, he just wanted to sow discord and make Yunguo a mess, but now it seems that he has to rely on Wang Yaping's power to leave Yunguo. All the things he had experienced in the past made Xia Xiao's next step fall to the northern devil grassland of Goulongbang. When he was possessed by the devil, Heihuang also told him where to find her.

At that time, Heihuang knew some things that Xia Xiao didn't know. Xia Xiao has figured them all out by himself now, but if he wants to enter the darkness, he still has to go.

In the dim hall, Xia Xiao changed his next move according to the changing situation. He kept coming up with countermeasures and paths, just to make the right move. But it was difficult to cater to and keep company with the things in the darkness, because they were much more complicated than Xia Xiao thought.
