"Reporting to Master, Jiu Xiang has delivered the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda!"
A short while later, a maid came in carrying a tray.
"Um!"
Lin Xue slowly hummed in agreement, then continued to gaze into the distance, seemingly looking at the scenery, or perhaps pondering her own thoughts through the landscape.
Seeing their master like this, the maid dared not disturb him. After placing the things on the table, she quietly withdrew.
Serving this master is no easy task; if they do anything wrong and offend him, they will suffer a terrible fate.
For the people of Snow Princess's Palace, being able to die quickly is an extremely luxurious thing.
Every minute of their lives was lived with utmost care, trepidation, and caution.
It's almost impossible for them to die a normal death; they pray every day that they won't make any mistakes and won't be noticed by their owners.
Although that master would occasionally kill people for inexplicable reasons, he was much more restrained with the servants in the manor than with those outside.
But sometimes, it's not that others are punished for making mistakes, but rather that they are killed simply because someone's presence gets in their way.
Therefore... the entire Snow Princess's mansion was extremely quiet, with no sound coming from any corner.
Whether walking or doing things, everyone has developed a certain tacit understanding.
Walking in Princess Snow's palace is silent, and doing things is also done quietly.
Everyone was living cautiously, fearing that they might lose their lives at any moment.
After the maids left, Lin Xue returned to the table.
He ran his hands over the box containing the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda, and then slowly opened the box.
Looking at the contents of the box, Lin Xue felt a pang of sadness.
With a slight twitch of her fingers, she silently reached for the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda.
As Lin Xue touched it, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda trembled slightly, but quickly quieted down.
Lin Xue took it in her hand and then put it directly into her spatial storage.
I found a comfortable spot to lie down, and my consciousness returned to the space.
The box lay quietly on the stone table. With Lin Xue's appearance, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda inside the box trembled slightly and emitted a faint halo.
"It's so good that you're back in my life!"
As Lin Xue spoke, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda lying in the box suddenly floated slowly into the air.
The halo emanating from the tower gradually spread, eventually enveloping Lin Xue completely.
"Buzz~"
The Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda trembled violently, as if expressing its excitement.
"A delicate die inlaid with red beans, does it know the depth of my longing for you?"
Lin Xue whispered the small characters engraved on a hidden part of the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda.
Then, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda lost its bronze color and turned into seven-colored glazed glass.
"Buzz~"
As the spiritual connection between the two sides was established, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda suddenly disappeared from its original spot and appeared in the depths of Lin Xue's sea of consciousness the next second.
Then Lin Xue's figure flashed in place and finally disappeared into the space.
The next second, Lin Xue arrived inside the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda.
Although the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda looks very similar to the Nine-Story Exquisite Pagoda, its internal structure is completely different.
To outsiders, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda appears as a huge storage space, but only its true owner knows that the pagoda contains nine hidden apertures.
Within each of its key points lies a vast space.
There wasn't much in the main space; the truly valuable resources were all hidden in those concealed keyholes.
Lin Xue entered these hidden spaces with ease and checked the supplies inside.
It wasn't until they discovered that, apart from the main space being emptied out, all the supplies in the hidden space were still there.
Seeing this, Lin Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason she was so familiar with the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda was that before Lin Xue was stranded in the small world, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda was her companion magic weapon.
Although she wasn't born in this world, she was brought here by a merchant from a wandering starship as early as she could remember.
Then, for an extremely low price, she was sold to a family on this planet.
Although she wasn't happy living in that family, at least they provided her with cultivation resources, allowing her to embark on the path of cultivation.
Lin Xue was also aware of her position, so she didn't have too many expectations.
However, as she grew older, her talent and abilities were also valued by her family.
Gradually, she also entered the core of that small family and became one of the best among the younger generation.
Lin Xue originally thought that she would spend her whole life in such a small family, and at most become an elder of this family outside the clan.
To her surprise, her talent was noticed by the Ye family at a martial arts tournament held specifically for the younger generation.
At the same time, a dark force also set its sights on her. Those shadows from the abyss tried countless times to seize her body and take her to a mysterious place.
Although Lin Xue didn't know where these guys were taking her, she felt a sense of oppression every time she encountered them.
It was as if the two of them were natural enemies, and they would feel uncomfortable wherever the other appeared.
She also couldn't easily use her primordial energy, because every time she used it, those guys would stick to her like glue.
When Lin Xue caught the eye of the Ye family, the patriarch of this small family sent her to the Ye family without hesitation.
No one asked for her opinion or cared about her thoughts.
And so... Lin Xue moved from her small family to the Ye family, where she lived in the outer gate of the Ye family for about three years.
For the past three years, she has suffered endless humiliation at the hands of the younger generation of the Ye family. Even though she was a talent valued by the higher-ups, after being recruited, although she received preferential treatment in terms of resources, she was mentally tormented by the Ye family for three years.
Since ancient times, perverts have been born in the Ye family.
The Ye family's perversion isn't limited to just Ye Linxue. Although those individuals aren't as obviously perverted, they all exude a violent tendency to their very core.
During the three years Lin Xue spent in the Ye family, her strength could not be improved because she was constantly disturbed by that mysterious force.
So eventually, the Ye family stopped paying attention to her.
It was at that moment that the mysterious force finally began its final operation.
When Lin Xue went out to train and used her source power again, she was captured by that group of mysterious shadows.
