Chapter 1876

Xu Jingming lowered his head to look.

He saw only that his teacher's face......

Those ice-blue beautiful eyes were misty.

The corners of her eyes still carried a touch of crimson brought on by the cold, revealing a fragility and dependence she would absolutely never show on ordinary days.

"Jingming... I..."

Xu Jingming......

Six hours later.

Inside the cave, the extreme cold mist slowly dispersed, leaving only a strange and tranquil warmth.

Xu Jingming lay flat on the ice surface.

This ice surface had become warm and smooth at some unknown time, no longer piercingly cold.

His chest rose and fell slightly, his breathing gradually steadying, only his whole body's muscles still bulging.

And Teacher Frost Crown......

She was curled up at his side, ice-blue long hair spread out like seaweed.

One part wound around his arm, one part draped onto the ice surface.

That body that made Xu Jingming's heart and spirit tremble violently, that heart-stirring delicate frame.

At this moment was exposed in the air without any covering, yet no longer icy cold.

Skin translucent white like jade, glowing with a warm luster under the ice crystal light, as if carved from the finest mutton-fat warm jade.

Most heart-palpitating was her sleeping face.

That face usually cold as ice, dignified and noble, of peerless beauty.

At this moment displayed a fragility and satisfaction never seen before.

Willow brows relaxed, long lashes casting faint shadows on her eyelids.

Ice-blue eyes tightly closed, the corners of her eyes retaining a trace of undried tear tracks.

Red lips slightly swollen, color more gorgeous than usual.

Her cheeks flushed with a healthy rouge, no longer the morbid flush from before.

But a natural complexion of abundant qi and blood, warm and mellow.

She slept very deeply, breathing even and long.

One arm rested on Xu Jingming's chest.

Palm pressed against his heart's position, as if confirming that warmth and beating.

"This......"

Xu Jingming lay quietly, not daring to move.

He lowered his head to look at the teacher in his arms, his heart filled with some emotion.

Everything just now, though forced by circumstances, was to save her life.

But those intimate contacts during the process truly happened.

Especially the later part......

Forming an extreme contrast with her usual cold pride, the impact was too strong.

"Tsk tsk, Master you've eaten again."

The succubus little loli soul body in midair tsk-tsk spoke:

"But Teacher Frost Crown's Extreme Cold Heart inside her body has therefore already stabilized.

The cold intent has been neutralized by your body temperature and...... mm, anyway it's been neutralized.

She is currently absorbing and fusing, there will be no danger."

"Good."

Xu Jingming nodded, speaking no further.

As for what happened just now, he could only wait until Teacher Frost Crown woke to know how to handle it.

Time quietly flowed by.

Inside the cave silent without sound, only the two people's calm breathing and the faint sound of the distant cold pool's water ripples gently swaying.

Xu Jingming maintained his posture without moving, letting the Frost Crown Ruler lean against him.

He could feel her body's aura gradually becoming vigorous and peaceful.

It was a kind of ice-system origin thoroughly controlled, a harmonious feeling with no more restlessness.

Unknown how much time passed.

The Frost Crown Ruler's long lashes lightly trembled once.

Xu Jingming's heart jumped, subconsciously holding his breath.

She slowly opened her eyes.

The ice-blue pupils at first still carried the bewilderment of just waking, focus scattered, as if not yet fully awake from deep sleep.

But very quickly, those eyes recovered their clarity, also recovered their usual reason and calm.

Then, she sensed her body's abnormality.

Skin without clothing covering directly contacted the slightly cool air, and that firm warm male body at her side.

"Hm?"

The Frost Crown Ruler's body obviously stiffened.

Those ice-blue eyes at a speed visible to the naked eye turned from bewilderment to clarity.

Then from clarity turned to incredulous shock.

She slowly lowered her head......

Memories surged back like a tide......

"Boom!"

Frost Crown's Ruler's lovely face instantly flushed red.

That blush spread from her cheeks to her earlobes......

"Teacher, the situation was urgent at the time.

There was no choice, I could only resort to this desperate measure."

Seeing this, Xu Jingming hurriedly spoke up.

"I know......"

Frost Crown naturally knew.

Just now, although her consciousness was hazy, she had not completely lost her memory.

She could even clearly remember that it was she who had taken the initiative......

"This isn't your fault, after all, I was the one who took the initiative."

After a moment of silence, Frost Crown Ruler slightly turned her face away.

Ice-blue long hair fell down, covering her reddened cheeks:

"Moreover, if it weren't for you.

I'm afraid I would have long since degenerated into a mindless ice beast."

She had indeed underestimated the power of the Heart of Extreme Cold.

If not for Xu Jingming's furnace-like scorching hot body, and...... that unspeakable warming method.

Her consciousness would likely have long been devoured by eternal freezing cold.

It can be said, Xu Jingming not only did nothing wrong, but did extremely well!

Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.

"Let's end this matter here, the two of us can just pretend nothing ever happened."

After taking a deep breath,

Frost Crown Ruler spoke again, trying to make her tone return to its former cold coolness.

Only in the depths of her eyes surged unprecedented complex emotions.

There was shame, and also gratitude.

Shame because she was the teacher.

A dignified Supreme Ruler, yet she lost her composure so before her disciple, even taking the initiative......

Gratitude because he saved her without hesitation, even if the method was so overstepping.

Additionally, there seemed to be a trace of hidden stirring even she herself was unwilling to delve into.

Unknown from when it started, toward this heaven-defying talent, deeply loyal and righteous disciple.

She seemed to no longer harbor purely master-disciple affection.

Those bold actions when reason was lost just now.

Perhaps merely completely released the thoughts deeply hidden in her heart.

Even, at a certain moment.

She actually faintly hoped that fiery entanglement could continue on.

But reason quickly returned.

She is the teacher, he is the disciple, the two's identities inherently have a gap.

What's more, Ye Li and Qian Xue those two are also Xu Jingming's women.

How could she share one man with her own disciple?

Just imagining the look in their eyes after learning of this.

Frost Crown felt her cheeks burn, with no place to hide her shame.

So, she could only pretend as if none of this ever happened.

"Pretend nothing happened?"

Xu Jingming's expression froze for a moment, looking at the peerless beauty before him, he couldn't help but say seriously:

"Teacher, I can't do that."

To say he had no special thoughts toward such a great beauty as Teacher Frost Crown, that's impossible.

It's just that because of the identity gap, he never overstepped.

Now that things have reached this step, he couldn't pretend nothing happened.

"Hm?"

Frost Crown Ruler's heart skipped a beat, yet she forced her face to stay stiff, feigning anger:

"Don't forget I'm your teacher!"

"Is that so?"

Xu Jingming's lips hooked into a wicked smile.

His gaze swept over her still faintly blushing lovely face and exposed delicate body:

"But Teacher you just now......"

Then amid a soft cry of alarm from Teacher Frost Crown......

Ten hours later.

Immaculate Ice Field, outside the ice cave.

What's going on? Why hasn't he come out yet?!

The Dust Rock Sovereign paced anxiously, his moon-white robe fluttering in the cold wind.

He stared fixedly at the dark cave entrance, his pale gold eyes bloodshot.

For some unknown reason, a strong sense of unease grew heavier, making him restless and agitated.

"My lord, perhaps the boundary junction requires time?"

The black-robed sovereign spoke cautiously.

"Shut up!"

The Dust Rock Sovereign growled low, but the gloom in his heart refused to dissipate.

Inside the cave, it was warm as spring.

The cold pool had long since returned to calm, the ice-crystal coral emitting a soft glow.

Xu Jingming leaned against the ice wall, sitting, frost crown......

Bai Xi's delicate face pressed against his solid chest, her ice-blue hair spread like silk.

The previous arrogance was gone from her face, replaced by utter compliance.

"How is it? This can't just be ignored now, can it?"

Xu Jingming lowered his head, watching his teacher's rare girlish demeanor, the smirk at his mouth undiminished.

"Yes, yes, yes, I admit defeat."

The Frost Crown Sovereign lifted her head, giving him a flirtatious white-eye, her cheeks still flushed:

"I checked before, among your companions, several are your teachers.

I thought it was just coincidence, but now it seems......"

She extended a slender finger, lightly poking his chest, "It's definitely your doing!"

"Wronged!"

Xu Jingming hurriedly said: "Everything is mere coincidence.

For instance, this time, could it still be that I forced you, my teacher?"

"This......"

The Frost Crown Sovereign's expression froze.

Indeed.

The first time, it was her......

The second time......

Gazing at Xu Jingming's faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

She couldn't help but feel somewhat annoyed:

"Xu Jingming, are you feeling pleased now?!"
