“Bai Yu, you’ve returned!” A middle-aged man with a dense beard took large strides out from the front hall, evidently coming out personally to greet her.

The middle-aged man had a thick beard, but it was very neatly groomed, making him quite a charismatic mature man.

“Hmm? Who are these people?” Xiao Leng looked at Chu Mu, Ye Wansheng, and the Morning Crown Prince with a hint of confusion on his face.

Liao Yu, that kid, Xiao Leng knew all too well, so he directly ignored him, which puzzled him. Bai Yu, unfamiliar with life here, shouldn’t know anyone else, so why did she bring several young men to his place this time?

“Let’s go inside and talk,” Bai Yu said.

Xiao Leng nodded and led everyone through the front hall to the central hall.

“Liao Yu, go and play by yourself. The adults are going to talk,” Xiao Leng waved his hand, dismissing Liao Yu.

Liao Yu was dissatisfied, feeling underestimated even though he was a Soul Lord himself!

After sending Liao Yu away, Chu Mu and the others were already seated in the hall, where Bai Yu’s foremost concern naturally was his daughter.

“Don’t worry, the Ice Crystals in my Ice Room come from the highest place in the Heavenly Mountains, plus a Heavenly Mountain Xuanlian. Your daughter definitely won’t have any accidents,” Xiao Leng said.

Bai Yu’s face showed a trace of bitterness. No accidents? She was practically indistinguishable from being dead now; perhaps he was always deluding himself. It was really hard to say whether the Magic Spirit could save her.

“A Demon Man appeared in the Swamp Mountains, killed many people, and I was about to send for you. It’s good you’re back, are you hurt?” Xiao Leng said.

Xiao Leng was clearly unaware that Bai Yu had turned into a demon. Bai Yu had been ice-sealed before King Xiao left the land of the New Moon, so he wasn’t very clear about what had happened there.

“Oh, and you haven’t introduced these young talents yet,” Xiao Leng said.

“Oh, these three are from the land of the New Moon. This one is the King of the World two generations after you, and now is also the ruler of the entire land of the New Moon, Chu Mu,” Bai Yu introduced, not sparing any courtesy in announcing Chu Mu’s identity.

Xiao Leng’s face showed surprise as he scrutinized Chu Mu closely and said, “Indeed a young talent. So, you should have reached Low-grade Master level in strength!”

“That’s nothing. This one here is the Crown Prince of the Soul Hall, Chao Leng Chuan, and this one is Chu Mu’s friend, Ye Wansheng. They are the new generation of Dominator level powerhouses in the land of the New Moon,” Bai Yu said.

Xiao Leng’s expression of amazement deepened. First, he hadn’t expected the young men Bai Yu brought to be his fellow townspeople; second, their strength was so outstanding. At such an age, to possess Dominator-level strength was also very remarkable in this Cloud Realm!

After a brief chat, Xiao Leng walked ahead, leading everyone to the Ice Room.

On the way, the Morning Crown Prince whispered, “I remember that Madam Xiao should be King Xiao’s wife, and Xiao Hai is also his son. This King Xiao is quite unrestrained, running off to this place by himself.”

Xiao Leng seemed to have heard the Morning Crown Prince’s whisper and, with an embarrassed look on his face, said, “Actually, I want to go back too, but the old man at Cloud Gate won’t let me through. I’ve been trying to get a pass for all these years.”

Xiao Leng already had another family here in Wen City, but a man of his status having multiple wives and concubines wasn’t surprising.

In the Ice Room, following the spiral staircase downward, the ice walls on either side were adorned with a soft blue glow, illuminating the entire ice chamber with a clear and beautiful light.

The walls were inlaid with many Ice attribute Crystal Stones and Soul Crystals, making the temperature of the entire Ice Room very low, so cold that it could seep directly into one’s soul.

Chu Mu felt a familiar sensation towards this cold because he often used these Ice attribute Spirit Items to suppress the high temperature of the soul. This coolness seeped into his soul, giving him a rather comfortable feeling.

After the staircase that wound along the walls, at the very bottom of the Ice Room, there was an ice bed carved with Phoenix Clan patterns, with the tail end resembling the spread tail of a Phoenix.

Her black hair was beautifully spread out, with a few strands sticking to her pale yet stunning face. The pure white almost the same color as the ice bed, the dress veiled her graceful and holy figure.

Chu Mu had seen Princess Jinrou many times, but she had always worn a veil, leaving only the deep memory of her melancholic eyes now gently closed. Her long lashes painted a picture of tranquility and elegance, and her full lips, like her cheeks, were devoid of any color.

Her pale hands were crossed over her chest as if a beautiful woman in deep sleep, but the pallor of her lips and cheeks reflected an inexplicable heartbreak.

Blood stained her dress and hair–the scene of Princess Jinrou collapsing in a pool of blood seemed like it had happened only yesterday. Chu Mu, looking at her, struggled to breathe.

Bai Yu stood there, and from his expression, it was clear that he was nervous.

The Magic Spirit was almost the last hope. If it still couldn’t awaken her, Bai Yu truly didn’t know what to do.

“You all go out,” Bai Yu said, taking a deep breath and speaking to the others.

Everyone nodded and didn’t linger in the Ice Room.

As Chu Mu stepped onto the staircase, he looked back at Bai Yu, whose silhouette seemed desolate. Perhaps he held little hope himself.

“No wonder that silly boy Liao Yu ran off to the Guangtong Lost Realm. Seeing her, I feel like exchanging life with her,” the Morning Crown Prince said after stepping out of the Ice Room.

“The ones who are fathers are the ones who are truly heartbroken…” Ye Wansheng commented.

“Let’s hope it works,” Xiao Leng said, shaking his head helplessly.

Chu Mu didn’t speak, just leaned against the wall, silently waiting.

…

On a street as vibrant as brocade, Ye Qingzi and Mu Qingyi stood before a grand auction house as magnificent as a palace.

“`

Spirit Items no longer held much attraction for Ye Qingzi, who glanced at Mu Qingyi and said, “Perhaps there will be Xuan quality here.”

Mu Qingyi’s Wing Xuan Object was still lacking materials, with the 200 Xuan that Ye Qingzi had from Chu Mu, she was confident that she could refine the Wing Xuan Object if she could exchange about 50 Wing system Xuan materials.

The two women entered the auction palace, where indeed the items primarily catered to the needs of Dominator-level powerhouses. However, the grand and immense hall felt eerily quiet.

This was a place where Dominator-level powerhouses stepped into, so naturally it wouldn’t bustle with noise like a common auction house.

In the desolate hall, a few hurried figures occasionally passed by the two women, their gazes intentionally or unintentionally sizing them up, as if trying to guess their identities.

Neither Ye Qingzi nor Mu Qingyi paid any attention to their stares and headed straight for the auction hall.

“Wing system Level 1 Xuan quality, is it? We do have it here, but we need to give us a day to contact the owner. Additionally, the Demon Spirit Auction will be held in ten days, and you two are welcome to attend,” the middle-aged auction administrator spoke courteously.

“We only want the Xuan quality,” said Ye Qingzi.

“What will you use for the exchange, also Xuan quality?” the middle-aged administrator asked.

“Yeah,” Ye Qingzi nodded.

Since they could only exchange tomorrow, Ye Qingzi and Mu Qingyi did not linger there. However, as they were leaving, Ye Qingzi suddenly saw an exquisite cage on the middle-aged man’s desk.

Inside the cage was a little white creature, half-squinting its eyes making pitiable sounds, its claws scratching at the small cage, trying to break free.

“Qingyi, wait,” Ye Qingzi stopped and approached the little creature, asking the middle-aged man, “Is this young pet for sale?”

The middle-aged administrator shook his head and said, “This is a Heavenly Immortal Ice Curse Seal Demon Fox, with a very high Species Ranking, and it’s almost unique, not for sale.”

“Name a price,” Ye Qingzi said.

“Not for sale.”

“20 Xuan.”

“Uhm… it’s not for sale…”

…

After leaving the auction, Ye Qingzi opened the small cage, allowing the little Ice Fox inside to move freely.

The Heavenly Immortal Ice little Ice Fox quickly scurried onto Ye Qingzi’s shoulder, curiously scrutinizing the fragrance-emitting Ye Qingzi, its eyes no longer half-closed but sparkling.

“Qingzi, do you want to sign a soul contract with it?” asked Mu Qingyi.

With a level not inferior to the Heavenly Court Empress Snake, the value of such a Soul Pet had to be measured with Dominator-level currency. If Ye Qingzi wanted a new Soul Pet, the Heavenly Immortal Ice Curse Seal Demon Fox was indeed a good choice. However, spending 50 Xuan for it was somewhat extravagant. With 50 Xuan, Ye Qingzi could purchase enough Xuan quality to complete the refinement of a Dominator level profound artefact once.

Ye Qingzi shook her head and said to Mu Qingyi, “It’s a gift for Princess Jinrou.”

Ye Qingzi roughly explained to Mu Qingyi the matter of Princess Jinrou owning a little Ice Fox.

“Ah, then this is indeed the best gift for her when she wakes up,” Mu Qingyi nodded in agreement.

The two didn’t wander any longer and found Xiao Leng’s residence according to the address Bai Yu gave.

Someone guided them toward the Ice Room, where they saw Chu Mu, Ye Wansheng, the Crown Prince, and a middle-aged man standing outside a cold-emitting house.

The door of the house was open, and when they approached, they found the atmosphere somewhat strange, with nobody speaking.

At that moment, the sound of Bai Yu’s footsteps on the staircase came from inside the house, heavy to an extreme.

A moment later, Bai Yu emerged from the chilly ice house.

He walked past everyone without uttering a word, his dejected demeanor apparent to all…

Bai Yu’s steps halted as he passed by Ye Qingzi.

Seeing the little white Ice Fox in her arms, Bai Yu shuddered.

The Ice Fox’s faint whining was delicate like that of an infant, and Bai Yu clearly remembered when he caught the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon, it was the very moment little Jinrou came into the world…

Bai Yu never showed any emotions on his face, but that little Ice Fox made his spirit collapse instantly!

He could no longer contain the sorrow in his heart, tears rolling down from his hollow eyes, cold and heart-wrenching, a pain so intense he couldn’t breathe.

He twisted his head away fiercely, not wanting anyone to see his tears. Finally, he stepped forward, heading in a direction even he didn’t know where.

Everyone watched him, and there was a long silence before anyone spoke.

Chu Mu wanted to follow and tell Bai Yu he would also do everything possible to help wake Jinrou, but Xiao Leng held onto Chu Mu, shaking his head to signal that Bai Yu should be left alone to calm down.
