Shen Sangruo's body was nearing its limit, and her mind felt as if it were about to freeze.
In this situation, how can one obtain the dew from the Snow Soul Ice Lotus, also known as the Mysterious Ice Jade Dew?
Her fingertips dug deep into her palm, and bright red blood flowed from between her fingers. The pain finally brought her to a slightly more awake state.
A plan suddenly came to mind.
With her last bit of spiritual power, she ignited a small flame at her fingertips and drew it close to the Snow Soul Ice Lotus.
As expected, part of the Snow Soul Ice Lotus, formed from ice crystals, melted, turning into water droplets that shimmered with silver light.
Dew is water, and melting ice crystals is also water, so there shouldn't be much difference between the two, right?
Shen Sanruo quickly took out a porcelain bottle to catch it, and then chopped off a few lotus petals and put them into her storage bag.
If that still doesn't work, she'll have to try artificially sprinkling "dew" on it.
Having done all this, Shen Sangruo immediately set off to leave the cave.
When she emerged from the cave, many parts of her body were covered in ice. Had she arrived any later, she would have been frozen solid and left in the cave as an ice sculpture.
Fortunately, it was a close call.
She took a few pills, and her body finally warmed up a bit.
She half-squatted on the ground, curling herself up so she could warm up faster.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my back, as if I had been struck by something.
Could it be a monster that lives on the icy plains of Xieshan?
Shen Sanruo's alarm bells rang immediately. She turned around abruptly, and two familiar figures came into her view.
"Hey! Who are you? What are you doing here, sneaking around like this?!"
Such a wise voice—you could tell it belonged to that idiot Luo Chu at a glance.
What just hit her was the snowball thrown by Luo Chu.
Traveling with Luo Chu was Bai Mumu, who was cautiously hiding behind him.
Shen Sangruo: "..."
She felt that there must be some kind of ill fate between them, that they could run into each other in such a godforsaken place.
Only two words came to mind: bad luck.
She suddenly felt less cold, and now she could run down the icy plains of Xieshan Mountain in one go without any problem.
Luo Chu and Bai Mumu recognized her at this moment.
"Chen Sangruo?! What are you doing here?" The wariness in Luo Chu's eyes was immediately replaced by surprise.
Bai Mumu was also very puzzled, "Fifth Senior Sister, what are you doing at Xieshan Icefield?"
The two men quickly walked up to her.
Sensing the aura emanating from her, Luo Chu couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
Shen Sangruo was actually a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, just one step away from catching up with him.
What kind of monster is this Shen Sang? It's too outrageous that he could still keep up with him in such a short time after his cultivation was completely dissipated.
Thinking that Shen Sangruo's cultivation might surpass his soon, Luo Chu looked at her with even more dissatisfaction.
Bai Mumu's expression was also not very good. Why could Shen Sangri improve so easily?
In her usual missions, characters like Shen Sangruo were always lowly people who served as foils to her.
But now Shen Sangruo is living a very successful life, while her mission is regressing instead of progressing. How can she accept this?
Shen Sanruo glanced at Bai Mumu, the scene of her killing to prove her Dao flashing through her mind, and then looked at Luo Chu with an ambiguous smile.
Luo Chu's eyebrows twitched slightly. Why did he feel that Shen Sangri looked at him with pity?
baffling.
"What I do here is none of your business," Chen Sangruo retorted, withdrawing her gaze. "Make way for me, don't block my path."
Luo Chu, of course, didn't take her words seriously and instead stood still to block her way.
"Well done, our Chen Sangruo is really getting more and more capable. She doesn't even care about Master or Senior Brother anymore."
"What are you doing here in this frigid land, someone with a fire elemental root? Is it because you were kicked out of the mountain by your master and feel ashamed that you're here to die?" Luo Chu smirked.
He looked Chen Sangruo up and down. "Oh, I see. You must have known we would come to Xieshan Ice Plain, so you deliberately came here to ambush us, right?"
"Let me tell you, we've been irreconcilable enemies for a long time. No matter how much you scheme and deliberately appear in front of me, it won't work."
"It's been a few months, and Fourth Senior Brother has made great progress." Shen Sangruo didn't answer Luo Chu's question, but instead said something completely nonsensical.
"Oh?" Luo Chu became interested. Did she also want to praise him like her junior sister?
He said that if Shen Sangruo appeared here for no apparent reason, it must be to attract their attention.
He wanted to see what kind of nice things she could say with her sharp and sarcastic mouth.
"Then tell me, in what areas have I made progress?"
Shen Sanruo's lips curved slightly as she slowly uttered a few words: "Unrequited love."
"You!" Luo Chu's eyes widened in anger, but after thinking of something, he suppressed his anger.
He said with a forced smile, "Ha, keep pretending, let's see how long you can keep up this act."
“I knew you’d put on that indifferent act again. I’ll expose you right away.”
Luo Chu's voice was firm and confident.
"You'd better not beg me then."
Luo Chu's behavior puzzled Shen Sangruo, who wondered what kind of trouble he was up to now.
He was already mentally prepared to kick Luo Chu off the icy plains of Xieshan at any moment.
Now that their cultivation levels are roughly the same, she has no fear of fighting him.
"Show your true form!"
Luo Chu roared and flicked the Seven Emotions Gu in his hand at Shen Sangruo. The Gu worm instantly burrowed into her flesh.
But unlike last time, Shen Sanruo was completely calm this time, without any pain caused by the Seven Emotions Gu.
Shen Sanruo only felt a slight itch on the back of her hand, and had no other reaction.
She frowned, looking at Luo Chu with a puzzled expression.
In her eyes, Luo Chu's behavior was no different from being crazy.
A strange look flashed in Luo Chu's eyes, who had been expecting Shen Sangri to be in unbearable pain.
Wasn't the Seven Emotions Gu already cast? Why isn't she reacting at all?
They even looked at him with the kind of gaze one would give someone who is mentally challenged.
Could it be that the Seven Emotions Gu that Lu Shiqing gave him has gone bad?
That's so unreliable! They can't even make a living on their own.
Luo Chu cursed Lu Shiqing in her heart.
Fortunately, Lu Shiqing had given him more than one Seven Emotions Gu. Luo Chu coughed lightly twice to ease the awkwardness.
"That was just a drill; this is for real."
Then he shouted again, "Go!"
Another Seven Emotions Gu succumbed to Shen Sangri's skin.
This time, she finally realized what Luo Chu had done to her.
A sarcastic smile curled at the corner of her lips; she actually wanted to use the Seven Emotions Gu on her.
Her feelings for them had long since been stripped away, and even the Seven Emotions Gu could no longer harm her.
"No, why isn't the Seven Emotions Gu working?!" Luo Chu's eyes suddenly widened.
