Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess

Chapter 202: 202: North Pole (1)

The conversation between Taiyang and Shen Jueyang was heard completely by Yue Xuexia, who was listening to her phone. Her beautiful face was devoid of emotions as she listened to them. Even when another woman was mentioned by the two, she never cared. Even Yue Xuexia was surprised by how she reacted and even touched her chest, checking her heartbeat.

The rhythmical beating showed that his emotions were calm regardless of what she had heard. She wasn't angry nor disappointed. But this calmness sent coldness into her heart, as if she would no longer be moved by anything that involved love or anything about men and women's relationships.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "It seems the vow I made before made me a woman with a frozen heart. Whatever, as long as I can protect my family, nothing else matters."

She ended the call as if she hadn't done anything at all and walked down the stairs to find her parents. Regardless of what Taiyang and the system had spoken about, she decided to do the mission. She didn't like receiving without repaying anything. That's why she would always do missions that involved merits, as this is her repayment for giving her that sign-in system.

Yue Xuexia had just finished telling her parents about her plans to gather materials for armor refining. Grandma Hialun and Grandpa Xia were also unexpectedly there to visit as well. Her grandma was worried, but her grandfather agreed to her plans. After all, for a cultivator to get stronger, they need to experience death multiple times. Plus, with Taiyang going with her, Yue Xuexia's safety is guaranteed.

Everyone had gathered in the dining hall to eat lunch. Taiyang and Tan Bingyu were joining them for the meal.

Grandpa Xia asked, "Where do you plan to go first? Bermuda Triangle?"

"North and South Pole," answered Yue Xuexia.

Mama Yue asked, "Are you sure you are going, Xue'er?" She is worried for her daughter's safety.

"Don't worry, Ma. I will take care of myself. This is something I need to do," said Yue Xuexia. She was talking about talking this mission and making the Godly Skill of armor, Refining her for real

Taiyang wanted to say that the mission wasn't urgent and that she shouldn't worry too much about it. That the skills she got right now cannot be taken away by the system, but thinking about how weird the main body is right now, he had no confidence that the main body wouldn't take back what he had given to Yue Xuexia. He decided not to speak until he was sure about it and decided to ask Shen Jueyang when he got back.

Papa Yue comforted his wife and said, "Ma, you don't have to worry about Xue'er. Our daughter is strong. She should be able to protect herself. Moreover, she wouldn't be alone. Xiao Bing and Xiao Yang will be with her."

"I know that, but... isn't the north and south pole dangerous? Both places have extreme coldness. I am just worried," said Mama Yue.

Grandma Hialun told her daughter, "Xue'er said it was something she must do. Since she made her decision, let's believe in her." Then she turned and looked at her granddaughter, "Xue'er, grandma, I believe you will do well. However, I believe that you also know your limits."

"I understand Granny. I will not push it if I can't truly do it!" Yue Xuexia responded to her grandmother.

After getting permission from her parents and elders, Yue Xuexia made her final preparations. She didn't even say goodbye to her siblings, as she didn't want them to worry about her. Tan Bingyu also informed her clan about her mistress's plans. Her grandfather had allowed her to go, but like Mama Yue, her father, Tan Shenyu was worried about her.

Tan Shenyu is a man who has lost his wife and only has a daughter by his side. It can be said that Tan Bingyu was his most precious child. Only when Tan Huangyu spoke to his son did Tan Shenyu allow Tan Bingyu to leave with their mistress. Clearly, this old man only agrees because of Taiyang's existence.

The three of them used Yue Xuexia's private jet to first head to the north pole. They didn't allow the jet to go down any nearby airports and decided to jump down directly to the location instead. The three of them are cultivators after all, and they are completely different from ordinary people. Thus, they didn't hesitate to jump down on a height; they were sure that they would not get hurt.

The north pole, like others know, is covered in snow and ice 24 hours a day. Winter will always be present in this location. The only difference between the north and south poles is that the south pole is colder than the north pole.

No country owns the north pole, but it is considered the top of the world, while the south pole is considered the bottom of the world. It's located on sea areas and is made up of glaciers, and it's on the top of an ocean.

Yue Xuexia said to the pilot of her private jet, "Please open the door. We are jumping down."

The pilot and the staff in the jet questioned where their masters were going or what they were going to do. They only need to bring them to the location they wanted, and their job is done. Plus, they already know that the mistress was not an ordinary person.

Taiyang, Yue Xuexia, and Tan Bingyu jumped down. The one in lead was the only male in their group, and he was there as a precaution to make sure that the two ladies would land on the ice safely. All three of them wear thick jackets and parachutes for show. They still need to pretend that they are normal people.

Upon seeing that the three had jumped off, the pilot flew away and to the nearest airport. It was decided that they would wait for them on the land until they got contacted by Tan Bingyu for pickup. There is a GPS held by the group for locating them the next time they meet.

All three of them landed successfully on the glaciers and were welcomed by the world covered in ice and snow. A white world that can only be seen on televisions and the internet. Yue Xuexia, look around and find the place pleasing. Except for the sound of waves and breeze, there are almost no other sounds in the area.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "This place is quiet. I kind of like it here. But can the ore we are looking for be found here? Isn't the north pole only made up of ice above an ocean. Ores are supposed to be found on land or caves, aren't they?"

"Ice Ore Stone is not literally a stone. It's just the shape it took is similar to it, but it's an ore made up of ice, which is at least a few hundred years old," explained Taiyang. "These ores can be found in places with high density of ice. The north and south poles whose depths are unknown most likely have it."

"What does the Ice Ore Stone look like?" asked Tan Bingyu.

Taiyang responded, "Only the size of the fist. Smooth as pebbles or jade, and it's almost transparently made of ice elements."

"How can I find a stone in a place like glaciers? Everything in this place is made up of ice!" said Yue Xuexia as she looked around, enjoying the coldness of the place and its hidden pure beauty.

Taiyang sighed and said, "Don't look for a stone. I only said it looked like one. Since it is made up of ice elements, I used ice elements to find it. It possessed a powerful energy made up of ice elements. Tan Bingyu will be able to sense it if she works hard."

"Can't I do it too? I also possessed a Yin physique, right?" asked Yue Xuexia while pointing at herself.

Taiyang recalled that Yue Xuexia possessed the rare Yin Moon physique, but even though this physique is under the category of Yin, it focuses more on the energy from the moon. It is more powerful than the ordinary qi one can get from the heavens and earth.

"How about trying when the sun had set? Your physique is more powerful during the night. However, it wasn't even activated yet, and the moon energy you can control was something you only got from the moon stone we bought from the Crimson Cloud Auction Hall. Let your subordinate try it first. You can try it at night," said Taiyang.

Tan Bingyu closed her eyes and tried to feel the elements in the area. But the north pole is one of the coldest places in the mortal realm; thus, it is filled with ice elements. Tan Bingyu gasped when she felt all the ice elements surging to approach her. This is all thanks to her Nine Meridian Physique, which is loved by the ice elements.

Gasp! Cough! Cough!

Tan Bingyu's face turned a bit red from lack of air. When the surge of Ice energy hit her directly, she almost froze herself back to the state when she fell into deep sleep.

Yue Xuexia worriedly asked, "Are you alright, Sister Bingyu?"

"How useless! Don't let the ice elements overwhelm you! You are its master. How can you be afraid of your own power? Find the location with the strongest ice elemental aura. There is a possibility that the ice ore stone can be found there," said Taiyang.
