Chapter 367

At this time, deep within the peak of the snow mountain, along several dangerous cliffs, there was a cave dwelling carved from cold ice.

The entrance to the cave dwelling was tightly closed, and there was a light screen barrier on the giant gate carved from cold ice, rippling like flowing water, full of spiritual energy.

However, inside the cave dwelling, there were two women, sitting cross-legged on ice-carved cushions, facing each other!

There was also a layer of light screen between the two, unable to be penetrated.

One of the women had hair like a waterfall, skin like fat, and an exquisite face, revealing a noble, elegant, mature, and dignified temperament.

She sat calmly on the cushion, her heart like still water.

That plump and graceful figure outlined perfect and charming curves; it was the Water Emperor of the Shuiyuan Kingdom—Hongyan!

And the other woman opposite her also possessed a peerless face, but her temperament was the exact opposite of the Empress. Her charming eyes were seductive, and her smile was enchanting; it was that Empress Bing Ning, Liu Jingning.

"Hongyan, the Shuiyuan Kingdom is mine now, I advise you to go back as soon as possible! A small place like the Five Elements Mountain is not suitable for you to stay in." Empress Bing Ning looked at the Empress and said with a smile.

The Empress remained unmoved, sitting quietly, and there were even wisps of spiritual energy flowing on her body, as if she were resisting the restriction of the Holy Land.

Clearly, this cave dwelling seemed to be unaffected by the restriction, and True Essence was not sealed!

"Don't waste your effort, you can't break the barrier of this place. I know you want to seek a breakthrough here, but unfortunately, your physique has flaws, and you are destined to be unlucky. In the end, you will follow in your mother's footsteps, why waste your energy?" Liu Jingning continued to smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Empress's emotions finally fluctuated, her beautiful eyes suddenly opened, and cold light flickered!

She parted her lips slightly and said indifferently: "I know those Ice Armor Army soldiers were given to you by the Jiang family. You go back and tell those people that since I have left the Jiang family, I will not go back to compete with them for any power or position!"

Liu Jingning smiled: "You are surnamed Jiang after all, whether you go back or not is not up to you. As long as you are alive, some people will definitely not be able to sleep peacefully!"

"So they sent you to take my life? You can't take it!" Hongyan shook her head slightly, her face gradually becoming indifferent.

Liu Jingning still had an enchanting smile on her face and said indifferently: "Naturally, I cannot take your life, and I dare not take it either. Who told you to also be surnamed Jiang! I went through all kinds of hardships to come here fifty years ago just to take that thing, but I didn't expect you to come too, and I didn't expect that the late Emperor of the Shuiyuan Kingdom would be a servant of your father back then. He falsely recognized you as his daughter and passed the throne to you, also to help you hide your identity, right?"

"That thing was left by my mother, and you cannot take it either!" Hongyan shook her head again.

The smile on Liu Jingning's face suddenly vanished, and she said in a deep voice: "Why? Do you really think that thing can change your destiny? Impossible, your mother failed back then, let alone you!"

Speaking of this, Liu Jingning sneered again: "Jiang Hongyan, some things are not interesting if they are said too clearly. You and your mother are both destined to be unlucky. Your father already paid with his life for this back then, and in the end, he couldn't change your mother's fate. This is destined by Heaven, no one can change it! But that thing can help me break through my bottleneck, why do you want to block my fortune?"

"I don't want to change anything! You have many ways to seek a breakthrough, there is no need to stare at my mother's legacy!" After Hongyan finished speaking, she closed her eyes again, not wanting to say anything more to Liu Jingning.

Liu Jingning's eyes were filled with killing intent. If it weren't for the barrier blocking her, she would have already made a move to snatch it.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from behind, and a wooden token actually flew in.

Liu Jingning flicked her slender hand and easily pinched the wooden token between her fingers. Looking at the few lines of small characters on the token, her beautiful brows immediately knitted!

"Lanterns that can fly appeared on the mountain?" She muttered suspiciously to herself, then suddenly raised her slender hand and took out a bronze mirror, slapping it into the air.

Whoosh!

A wisp of True Essence shot out from her green onion-like fingers, suddenly turning into a stream of light and sweeping toward the bronze mirror.

The next moment, a scene appeared on the mirror surface: in the pitch-black night sky, several thousand large Kong Ming lanterns were drifting above the snow mountain, rising higher and higher!

And on the city wall outside the Holy Land, many Ice Armor soldiers were gathered, discussing the lanterns, and their voices also followed the bronze mirror into the cave dwelling.

"They really are lanterns that can fly, and there are so many of them. What the hell are those people at the foot of the mountain doing? Could it be that they haven't captured Snow City yet?" Liu Jingning immediately frowned.

She also thought that these lanterns had drifted up from the foot of the mountain.

Only at the foot of the mountain could True Essence not be sealed, allowing the lanterns to be released into the sky.

And the Empress continued to sit on the ice cushion, ignoring the scene in the bronze mirror, continuing to cultivate with her heart like still water.

But at this moment, the scene in the bronze mirror suddenly changed.

"Eh?"

Liu Jingning's expression changed. She clearly saw that when the lanterns drifted halfway, large shadows suddenly streaked across the sky and drifted toward the snow mountain on the Holy Land side.

It was just that the night was too dark, and the Ice Armor soldiers outside the Holy Land had their cultivation sealed and couldn't see this scene, but she was different; she was in the Holy Land, her eyes were clear, and she had already sensed that something was wrong.

"Hmph, Jiang Hongyan, I didn't expect your people to be truly extraordinary. Not only did they hold Snow City, but now they dare to take the initiative to attack the mountain. The tricks are quite varied!"

Liu Jingning immediately sneered, her eyes narrowing slightly: "However, sending this many people up is ultimately just a path to death!"

Hearing this, the Empress knitted her beautiful brows slightly, but did not open her eyes, continuing to maintain her posture and cultivate. At the same time, a barrier behind her began to distort.

Liu Jingning didn't notice the abnormality, her face wearing a playful expression, continuing to watch the scene in the bronze mirror.

And at this moment, those several thousand Snow City soldiers, wearing paragliders, had already successfully glided across the canyon and arrived above the city wall of the Snow Mountain Holy Land, only a few dozen meters above the ground!

The Ice Armor soldiers patrolling the city wall finally noticed this scene.

After all, no matter how dark the night was, there was still a visual range, and the city wall was full of torches; there was no reason they couldn't see the human figures right above their heads.

"Not good, enemy detected!"

"This... what is the situation? Divine soldiers descending from the sky?"

"Divine soldiers my ass, these are all people from Snow City!"

"How did they fly over? Weren't their cultivation levels sealed?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and notify the Great General!"

"Where are the archers? Archers, come over quickly!"

The Ice Armor soldiers on the city wall shouted in panic, the crowd rushing about in disorder.

However, Xu Que had already brought several thousand troops and descended from the sky.

Before reaching the ground, he took out a loudspeaker and shouted: "Surprise, surprise, are you happy? You have all been surrounded. Now it's the Exploding Heaven Gang's robbery time. Men stand on the left, women on the right, and the cross-dressers stand in the middle. All of you, put your hands on your heads and squat down, and sing 'Conquer'!"
