Chapter 250 - Winter
The cold winter wind howled through the God Burial Abyss, bringing a biting chill.
Su Tang wrapped herself tightly in a furry cloak specially made from the fur of a fire-attributed monster, exhaled a puff of white air towards the photo stone, and was broadcasting live the sect's disciples enthusiastically practicing the newly improved "Guixu Cold-Proofing Formation".
"...Family, did you see that?! This is winter in our Guixu Sect! The evil energy mixed with the cold wind makes it twice as sour and refreshing! But in front of our invincible cold-proof formation, it's nothing!"
She tried hard to make her voice sound full of energy, but her psychic eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of longing for her senior brothers and sisters far away.
At this moment, the Star Attraction Token on her waist flashed violently, and a special wave representing the highest priority communication came.
Su Tang's eyes lit up, and she immediately said to the audience in the live broadcast room, "There is an emergency communication, please wait a moment, family members!" Then she quickly ran to the relatively quiet Talisman Array Tower and answered the call.
The screen lit up, and the first thing that caught my eye was a vast expanse of white snow! Feather-like snowflakes were swept by the strong wind, almost obscuring my vision.
The background is a towering glacier that pierces the sky like a sharp sword, and an endless ice field that reflects a pale light.
Then, Chu Linyuan and Xie Zhao appeared in the light curtain. Both wore thick white fur robes with unknown animal skins wrapped around their collars. The breath they exhaled instantly condensed into white frost.
Xie Zhao's nose tip and cheeks were red from the cold, but he was smiling brightly and waving excitedly at the camera.
Chu Linyuan stood beside him, still looking as icy as ever, but the corners of his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be tainted with the breath of ice and snow in the far north, making him look even colder.
One of his hands naturally rested on Xie Zhao's waist, as if he was using his spiritual power to ward off the cold for him.
"Su Xiaotang! See that! The Aurora Ice Field! Isn't it beautiful?" Xie Zhao's voice rang through the wind and snow, his excitement evident. "It's just a little cold, haha! Gungun, that guy, was too cold and hid in his spirit beast bag, holding onto the warm jade, refusing to come out!"
Su Tang looked at the magnificent yet harsh scenery in the light curtain, and the two brothers who remained close despite all the hardships they had experienced. She was filled with envy and longing, and cried out: "Wow! Senior Brother! Second Brother! You actually ran so far away! It looks so cold! But it's really spectacular! I'm so glad you're all okay!"
She chattered away, asking about the customs and habits of the Far North and whether they had encountered any snow monsters.
Xie Zhao was also happy to share with her, saying that he saw the glowing tundra, encountered a giant ice mammoth, and was almost made a snack by a pack of wind wolves...
After chatting for a while, Xie Zhao seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, Su Xiaotang, is everything okay with the sect? Is there any news from Junior Sister Luo?"
Mentioning Luo Hongyi, Su Tang immediately perked up, lowering her voice and saying mysteriously, "It seems like things are about to get to a critical moment over there, Senior Sister Luo!"
She said quickly, "According to the scattered news coming out of the palace, the chain of evidence that Senior Sister Luo has been secretly collecting over the years is almost complete! Those who participated in framing Concubine Jin back then, in addition to the fallen Queen's party and the Concubine Li who was sentenced to death, seem to have also been involved in a few old men who are still in high positions of power and a Grand Princess who left the palace long ago to practice cultivation! Senior Sister Luo has been making frequent moves recently, as if she is planning to expose them all in one fell swoop!"
Su Tang's tone was filled with nervousness and excitement: "I estimate that it will be in these few days! Once Senior Sister Luo takes care of this, we should be able to return to the sect, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Zhao on the other side of the light curtain looked at Chu Linyuan and saw the understanding in each other's eyes.
During their travels, they had been following the developments in Kyoto through their own channels, and naturally knew that Luo Hongyi's revenge was nearing its end.
"Let her do it." Chu Linyuan's cold voice came through the wind and snow. "The sect is her backing."
"That's right!" Xie Zhao said with a trusting smile on his face. "Tell Junior Sister Luo that if she needs help, just let me know! We can 'pass by' Kyoto anytime!"
At this moment, Su Tang seemed to suddenly think of something, her expression became a little strange, and she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Xie Zhao noticed it keenly.
"Um... Second Senior Brother," Su Tang hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "A few days ago, when I used my psychic eyes to observe Kyoto's fortune, it seemed... it seemed that I vaguely sensed a very, very hidden, but very familiar aura near Changle Palace where Senior Sister Luo lived... It's a bit like... it's a bit like the power of the stars mixed with some particularly strong earth-type spiritual energy..."
