However, at that moment, an extremely powerful vortex suddenly appeared in front of them.
It's as if it wants to suck everything around it into it.
"It's a spatial vortex. How could a spatial vortex appear here?" Clan Chief Zhu Jing asked in surprise.
Wei Qinghe and Di Fuyue exchanged a glance, and then jumped in without hesitation.
Because he had just delivered the Water Condensation Pill to Wei Qinghe, Long Cheng was very close to Wei Qinghe, so he jumped in after her.
"Longcheng!" Zhu Jing shouted, but before he could stop it, the spatial vortex had already closed.
The merfolk began to discuss the matter nervously.
"Why did Longcheng jump in too?"
“Our benefactors have gone inside; perhaps Longcheng is worried.”
"Longcheng probably wants to follow his benefactor because he thinks his benefactor might be able to help us return to the Great Wilderness."
The swirling waves gradually subsided, leaving only traces of the battle and a layer of ice half a person's height.
...
Within the spatial vortex, the air seemed to be distorted by the immense impact and external forces.
Di Fuyue protected Wei Qinghe all the way, holding her tightly in her arms.
Long Cheng followed behind them, also trying his best to create a protective shield to protect the three of them.
After an unknown amount of time, the three were carried by the spatial vortex to an extremely cold place.
The biting cold rose straight from my feet to the top of my head; the extreme cold almost made it hard to breathe.
"Could this be the Northern Underworld Continent?"
Longcheng, being inhabited by merfolk, was so cold it was almost freezing solid.
A layer of frost covered Wei Qinghe's head, but Di Fuyue remained unaffected, the extreme cold seemingly having no effect on him.
It's one thing for the Merfolk of Longcheng to be affected, but even Wei Qinghe, who possesses a top-grade ice spirit root, is still affected by the climate of this place.
Di Fuyue quickly erected a protective shield for Wei Qinghe, and as the special protective shield isolated the frost, it quickly melted away.
"You shouldn't have come along." Wei Qinghe looked at Long Cheng, who was almost frozen into an ice sculpture, and really felt sorry for him.
Longcheng grinned foolishly, "Our benefactor saved our entire clan, I want to follow our benefactor."
Di Fuyue only now realized how Longcheng viewed things, and she felt uncomfortable no matter what he said.
The merfolk are all good-looking, it's really awful that they're following his little girl around like this.
“I also got what I wanted, so I didn’t come here specifically to help you. And with you following me here, the climate here isn’t suitable for you merfolk.” Wei Qinghe looked at him with some unease.
"How about we try to open the spatial vortex again and send him back?" Di Fuyue didn't want to leave a third wheel around.
“I can’t leave. I must help my benefactor. He is the ruler of the Azure Sea Continent and will surely help our Merfolk return to the Great Wilderness in the future,” Long Cheng said with a determined expression.
He also sensed Di Fuyue's hostility towards him. "I only feel gratitude towards my benefactor and have no other thoughts. If you don't believe me, I am willing to make a pact with my benefactor."
contract?
Wei Qinghe couldn't help but think of Yun Yang and the octopus monster, who had gone into the depths of the underwater ruins before her.
I wonder if that person and that beast also came here.
If they get here, the octopus monster probably won't be able to withstand it.
“A contract is acceptable. My Qinghe has exceptional talent and aptitude. If you become Qinghe’s contracted beast, it would be a good deal for you. You wouldn’t have to suffer in the freezing cold here.” Although Di Fuyue disliked Wei Qinghe having men around her.
But contracted beasts are different; he thinks Longcheng is not bad.
Since he's already followed us all this way, the only way to sever his inappropriate thoughts is through a contract.
By the way, let Long Cheng be by her side to keep an eye on things; he is Wei Qinghe's fiancé.
Once this matter is resolved and Wei Qinghe's cultivation level is reached, she should return to the Tianyuan Continent and get married.
Before Wei Qinghe could decide on the contract, Di Fuyue made the decision.
Wei Qinghe glanced helplessly at Di Fuyue, knowing full well what Di Fuyue was thinking.
"Then let's make a contract."
“Okay.” Long Cheng was quite proactive and immediately offered up his soul blood.
A drop of blood flew from Wei Qinghe's fingertip, and a contract rune flew out with it.
The contract rune struck Long Cheng's forehead, and a drop of blood fell from it.
Soon, the mark of the contract symbol appeared in Long Cheng's sea of consciousness, and the image of the mermaid also appeared in Wei Qinghe's sea of consciousness.
With the contract successfully signed, Longcheng seemed to suddenly become less afraid of the cold.
Wei Qinghe took out a Taoist robe for him to change into, as it was still somewhat indecent to be shirtless no matter where you were.
"Why don't you go into the space?" Wei Qinghe thought for a moment. Since they had already made a contract, if Long Cheng had any disloyalty, she could crush him with a flick of her finger.
"No, I want to stay by my master's side. I want to protect my master's safety." Although Long Cheng was surprised to hear about the space, he still refused to enjoy the space.
It's not entirely certain whether this place is the Northern Underworld Continent, and we don't know what kind of dangers might be lurking there, so he decided it was best to stay by Wei Qinghe's side.
He willingly became Wei Qinghe's contracted beast, hoping that one day Wei Qinghe would send his people back to the Great Wilderness.
The three of them walked through the boundless, snowy land for an unknown amount of time before finally encountering a group of cultivators dressed in various styles.
The monks were not surprised to see their strange attire.
"You're also going to participate in the Shrine's recruitment, right?"
Shrine Recruitment?
The three looked at each other, then turned to look at the newcomer.
"Are you fellow Daoists also here?"
One of them said disdainfully, "If it weren't for the recruitment of the Divine Palace, who would come to this godforsaken place? It's freezing cold."
