Chapter 84: The Sixth Level of the Spirit Cave, the Weakness of Listening to Snow
Stepping closer to Feng Wanqing step by step, he now had only one feeling: cold, very cold!
His whole body was stiff, and he felt his hands and feet becoming somewhat uncoordinated.
When he was 10 meters away from Feng Wanqing, the Quenching Fire Technique lost its effect; it was as if it had encountered immense pressure and could not function at all.
At this moment, with every step he took closer, he felt his bodily functions weakening by a fraction.
"Stop!"
Feng Wanqing gave a light shout, and looking at the Rose in Yan Xiao's hand that was about to freeze into an ice block, a trace of strange emotion appeared in her eyes.
"You will die."
Feng Wanqing shook her head, stopping Yan Xiao from continuing forward.
In truth, even if she hadn't spoken, Yan Xiao could no longer move; at this moment, ice had already formed under his feet, and he could not take another step.
"Owner, you are probably a fool; if you can't walk over, just throw it over, you silly boy."
The System expressed its helplessness.
"Hehe... you think I'm really stupid? It wouldn't be sincere to just throw it."
Yan Xiao rolled his eyes; who gives a girl a Rose by throwing it?
Feng Wanqing quickly retreated a few steps, and only then was Yan Xiao not frozen into an ice block.
Qianyue was spinning around in anxiety on the side, but she had no way to help at all.
"Catch!"
Yan Xiao sighed and threw the Rose over.
The moment Feng Wanqing caught the Rose, the petals drifted down, turning into a sky full of flower rain; the entire lake surface became an ocean of flowers, and fragrance permeated the air.
Feng Wanqing caught the petals, but before she could be happy, the petals froze into ice blocks and withered instantly.
Feng Wanqing dared not reach out to catch them again and let the petals drift down.
"So beautiful!"
Qianyue Fairy stared blankly at the two of them; this moment was so beautiful, so romantic.
If only Senior Sister could always be happy, how wonderful that would be.
Qianyue prayed.
"Is it not done yet?"
Yan Xiao complained bitterly in his heart; his feet must have been frostbitten, and he might be the first cultivator to get chilblains.
"It's okay now; currently, the little girl's favorability toward you is 15 points, the Rose has already had an effect."
The System said to Yan Xiao, changing its voice to a Sichuan accent.
"So little?"
Fifteen points of favorability to make Feng Wanqing fall in love with him—that's a bit difficult.
Should he still say sentimental words?
"Except for her uncle, her favorability toward everyone else is negative; it's not bad that you have 15 points. Take advantage of this moment, hurry up and confess, and coax the little sister home."
The System replied.
"Okay."
*Cough, cough... *
"Wanqing... I know you are very conflicted, very hesitant, very lonely, and very helpless right now, but what I want to tell you is that as long as you don't give up and move forward bravely, there is nothing that cannot be done.
You are not alone.
I can accompany you to work hard together. So what if you are 'beautifully freezing'? It doesn't matter. I believe that one day you will be able to master the energy of ice and control it with ease.
You still have the City Lord, he is waiting for you to come home for dinner.
You still have Junior Sister Qianyue; you are not alone. This world might be a little cold to you, but we will give you warmth."
Yan Xiao stretched out his hands and spoke with great emotion.
Qianyue also wiped away her tears, ran to Yan Xiao's side, and opened her arms toward Feng Wanqing.
Feng Wanqing was stunned, as if the inner demon in her heart was dissipating.
She stood blankly on the spot, the Qi around her body in chaos; she was trying her best to control it, struggling within her heart.
"As long as everyone contributes a little love, the world will become a beautiful human realm..."
A burst of singing suddenly came from the air.
Who is singing?
"It's me singing, inspired by the moment. Sorry, sorry."
The System said apologetically.
Yan Xiao covered his forehead; this System was getting more and more ridiculous.
However, the meaning of the lyrics was quite good; Feng Wanqing seemed to be touched as well, repeating the lyrics continuously.
"As long as everyone contributes a little love, the world will become a beautiful human realm."
Her Qi gradually stabilized, and the cold air around her was weakening.
Yan Xiao and Qianyue were overjoyed; it was about to succeed.
As long as Feng Wanqing's inner demon could be influenced, she would be able to return to normal.
"Senior Sister, come over quickly, let's go home!"
Qianyue wept with joy, stretched out her hands, and called out to Feng Wanqing.
The look in Feng Wanqing's eyes gradually regained its luster, and she walked slowly toward the two of them.
With every step she took, her inner demon weakened by a fraction.
All of them saw hope.
"Flashy and gaudy, boring to the extreme; where in this world is there true love? It is nothing but a deceptive lie."
A figure shot over rapidly, cursing the group and acting cynical toward the world.
That person used a Flying Sword to strike directly at Yan Xiao and Qianyue; at this moment, their bodies were stiff, and they had no time to react.
"Damn it."
Yan Xiao cursed under his breath; if Feng Wanqing were interrupted at this time, all previous efforts would be in vain, and everything would be lost.
Sure enough.
Just as the Flying Sword was about to strike Yan Xiao and the other, Feng Wanqing moved.
She let out a sharp cry, shattered the incoming Flying Sword with one grab, and became entangled in a fight with the person.
"Run!"
Feng Wanqing said this to Yan Xiao and the other, her eyes turning deep blue again, to the point where even her pupils disappeared.
"This is the right way; you must be angry, you must be desperate, you must be hateful, only then can you unleash the strongest combat power.
Come with me to destroy Fengxue Silver City, to destroy this hateful world of cultivation."
That mysterious person kept provoking Feng Wanqing, chattering incessantly.
"I will destroy you first!"
With a sharp cry, Feng Wanqing sent an Ice Dragon from her palm, which struck the mysterious person and sent him flying instantly.
"If you want to kill me, add a little more force."
The person's disdainful voice came from the air.
Feng Wanqing was thoroughly enraged; she transformed the entire lake into a giant Ice Dragon, stepped on the dragon's head, and pursued the person.
A gale blew, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, trees within a hundred miles were destroyed, and mountains collapsed.
Feng Wanqing and the mysterious person fought in the air for a long time, moving further and further away, until they finally disappeared.
Yan Xiao and Qianyue stumbled as they fled from within, looking extremely disheveled.
The two looked at each other, both seeing the unwillingness in their hearts.
If not for the mysterious person deliberately causing trouble, they would have succeeded.
Everything was the work of that person; perhaps the layout had begun since Feng Wanqing was born.
The intentions were extremely sinister.
He did it just to turn Feng Wanqing into a demon, thereby achieving his ulterior motives.
"I am returning to Fengxue Silver City to report first; thank you for this time." Qianyue gave a bitter smile and spoke first.
Yan Xiao waved his hand, summoned Chenxi, stepped on the Golden Scale Shuttle, and flew toward Luo Yue City.
He felt quite dejected today.
He had once again felt his own insignificance.
What if Qingxue also encountered such danger?
He must speed up, speed up his pace, so that no one in this world can bully the people he cares about.
Returning to Luo Yue City.
He first went to the City Lord's Mansion to visit Chang Yongsheng.
Their eyes met, and Yan Xiao spoke first, "We fell short of success; someone sabotaged it."
"Sigh... poor girl."
Chang Yongsheng sighed, only hating himself for not being strong enough to protect his niece.
"You should focus on recovering from your injuries first; this is a Saint Grade healing medicine, it will be of some use to you."
Yan Xiao set down a Small Return Pill and turned to leave.
"Little Brother Yan, I beg one thing of you... when one day you become the Immortal Emperor Supreme, help Wanqing, help her escape the sea of suffering, and let her live a happy and peaceful life..."
Chang Yongsheng buried his head and wept bitterly.
"Fine!"
Yan Xiao stepped into the air and left.
"Ding, triggered high-level mission 【Ice Demon's Tenderness】, reform Feng Wanqing, resolve her troubles, and kill the mastermind.
Difficulty: 9 stars.
Reward: 5 million Fear Value.
Do you accept?"
"Accept!"
