Chapter 507: All kinds of flowers bloom
Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh
The north corner of the Ice Emperor City was a place of white snow. This white snow wasn't only the color of nature, but the color of the snow-white skin of many beauties.
Shi Yan arrived together with Shuang Yu Zhu. At first glance, he saw that every woman here was too charming, making his eyes light up.
Bing Qing Tong had five adopted daughters. Besides Bing Qiang and Bing Wei, the other three were beautiful too. Shuang Yu Zhu had four adopted daughters, they were all as pretty as snowflakes. Just looking at them could make people feel their mind get relaxed.
These nine young maids were truly appealing, and people hardly saw them in the street. They were gathering at the same place just like a garden of blooming flowers, which lit up the whole snowy area.
Bing Qing Tong was assigning something to them. As she saw Shi Yan, she said with her serious, cold tone, "Leave with us. Quick!"
"This guy’s slow. He’s wasted a lot of time. I don’t know what he’s thinking." Shuang Yu Zhu wasn’t happy. She snorted. "Da-jie, why do we have to go with him? That man’s coming to the Ice Emperor City because of him. If we split up, we could reduce the troubles."
"Don’t say that," Bing Qing Tong frowned. "Second sister and third sister met some troubles, which have gone beyond our imagination. If something happens to him, we can hardly deny the involvement. White Emperor City isn’t far from the Ice Emperor City. We can take care of each other along the way."
Bing Qing Tong still wanted the ice chamber, as she still wished to borrow the Ice Cold Flame to practice her Ice Jade Technique. She couldn't just stand and stare at Shi Yan being killed.
"Seems like they have a big trouble." Shi Yan curled his lips. "Well, if you guys have to run distressingly like this, I think that man should be very intimidating. I want to ask if we meet them, what would you do? Protect me or leave me behind?"
Shi Yan wasn’t afraid of the Third Sky of Spirit Realm warriors for a long time. This level of warriors couldn't scare him anymore, as the War Devil in the Blood Vein Ring was enough to finish them.
The reason why he came with them was to ask for the God Blood Key on behalf of Ba Si Teng, which depended on Bing Qing Tong’s and Shuang Yu Zhu’s attitudes. He needed to observe to decide whether or not he should offer them his goodwill.
"If we meet them, of course, we will take action. Even if it’s for the Ice Cold Flame, we will help you escape." Bing Qing Tong soon had a plan. She nodded without any hesitation. "That man knows about you because of my reckless Second Sister and Third Sister. Although I don't get along well with my sisters, they are the people of the Ice Emperor City. The Ice Emperor City has a part in it, so I’ll take responsibility. I don't deny it."
"Move..."
Shuang Yu Zhu let out a quiet sigh. She knew that her big sister was this kind of person, who valued favors and relationships. It was also why when the Ice Emperor City discussed business with the others, they often bore minor losses.
The reason why she had a close relationship with her big sister also was because of her characteristics. Her adoptive mother had also given the leading position to her because of her manners and bearing.
"Haha, I’ve never thought that the City Master of the Ice Emperor City upholds justice that much. Thanks for your goodwill."
Shi Yan was surprised, gazing at her, "With your recent words at this moment, our business is settled. Even if I don’t have the two drops of the Cold Chalcedony from Han Cui and Leng Dan Qing, I can think of giving you a hand in building a suitable ice chamber for your cultivation."
The two beautiful women had their eyes brightened.
The nine young girls who were as pretty as pictures also got struck by an extreme joy.
An ice chamber at its acme was the fortunate land to warriors who practiced Ice Jade Technique. All warriors in the city could benefit from it. Perhaps their powers and martial technique could advance by one level.
In the early stages, it was easy to break through the new levels of the Ice Jade Technique. But it was getting much harder in the later stages. From the Spirit Realm, every small level was challenging.
It was the reason why most of the nine daughters of Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu had a Sky Realm cultivation base. Only two of them had the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm cultivation base. At the earlier stages, they didn’t meet many bottlenecks while cultivating Ice Jade Technique. Moreover, Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu always protected and guided them, which smoothened their cultivating path.
However, to warriors who practice the Ice Jade Technique, from the Sky Realm to the Spirit Realm was a vast river. Without the flash of recognition and sufficient will, they would hardly make a further step.
Most of the warriors who were cultivating Ice Jade Technique couldn’t enter the Spirit Realm even if they had to spend their whole life on it. They would be halted at the Sky Realm, never having another breakthrough. It didn't seem as simple as waiting for the essence Qi to gather enough to enter the new realm. Besides many cold attribute items, they had to have a big luck.
The ice chamber was one of the lucky chances.
If they used the cold air from the Ice Cold Flame to create an ice chamber, in the extremely cold ambiance, the warriors who were cultivating Ice Jade Technique could have a chance to comprehend the deeper meaning of the coldness. Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu could receive a big benefit from the chamber, and so could their daughters. As they were in the Sky Realm already, they could enter the Spirit Realm directly.
"Time’s running out. We should move now." Bing Qing Tong mused and then frowned while she was observing the sky in the north. She said coldly, "That warrior should come from the south. We are moving to the north. If we’re fast enough, we can reach the White Emperor City before he can find us. We belong to the same Fighting Union, so the White Emperor City wouldn't just stand and stare. Once we get to the White Emperor City, our problem is solved."
Shi Yan smiled and nodded, his face calm, without a trace of worry or fear.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu were surprised inside. Their curiosity towards Shi Yan grew bigger. Let alone his Second Sky of Sky Realm cultivation base, although the two of them were the Spirit Realm warriors, they couldn't help but feel fear as they knew that the malicious warrior coming for them was a Third Sky of Sky Realm warrior. They couldn't calm their mind and their nerves were tense. His realm isn’t high, so how could he maintain that calm face?
It seemed that the line disciples of those old monsters weren’t ordinary people. His calmness could scare people…
The two women were musing, while Shi Yan wasn't hurried or slow. He didn't use the Star Brilliance and the Electric Shift, just maintaining an average speed, staying far behind Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu were aiding the two daughters that only had the Nirvana Realm cultivation base. Bing Qiang and Bing Wei had the Sky Realm cultivation base, so they could fly alone. Under the hazy moonlight, their white dresses made them look like fairies in a painting. Their bearings were beautiful and elegant, which could mesmerize people’s hearts.
Staying behind the group of pretty ladies, Shi Yan was observing here and there, his black eyes sparkling like stars.
‘Not bad, they're all precious… No wonder why many warriors want them. If those perverts know that they could oppress the beauties of the Ice Emperor City, of course, they wouldn’t let them go.’
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu were mature and elegant. The cold and arrogant aura on their bodies made people unable to control their minds.
Their nine adopted daughters had different features. Some were innocent, some were tender, and the others were strong. Yet, they all had a beautiful face, with exquisite, graceful bodies. When they gathered, they looked like flowers blooming in a garden. If someone were there, he would be charmed by the different traits of theirs.
Although his eyes were wandering among the group of pretty young ladies, they were calm and pure, not having any intention of desire his indifferent face.
Xia Xin Yan was still imprisoned the Pure Land. With this premise, he hardly had the mood to tease the other flowers. At this moment, he just wished to solve the stuff as soon as possible. Then, he would visit the Radiant God Cult and borrow their powers to ask the Pure Land release Xia Xin Yan. This could protect her soul.
Under the clear but cold moonlight, the delegation moved fast, leaving the Ice Emperor City behind.
The area surrounding the Ice Emperor City were ghettos. Snow fell year round, and the ground was covered by snow permanently. In such circumstances, warriors wouldn't choose to stay there for a long time. Only ones who practiced some special technique could endure the environment to stay.
Time flew by.
Two days had passed as fast as a blink of an eye. The moon went down then rose; day and night shifted.
After two days and one night of flying, Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu weren’t afraid of the strenuous travel. However, the three young maids at the First Sky of Sky Realm couldn’t endure anymore. Their breathing was difficult while they were drenched in sweat. Apparently, they were about to run out of energy.
Although the Second Sky of Sky Realm and the Third Sky of Sky Realm girls didn't show that they couldn't bear it anymore, they had consumed a big part of their Profound Qi. If they continued moving this way, half a day later, they would have consumed 70% or 80% of their Profound Qi.
Although Shi Yan had only the Second Sky of Sky Realm cultivation base, his Profound Qi was very pure and abundant, much beyond the ordinary warriors.
So, he didn’t have any trace of exhaustion.
"There’s a lake ahead of us. We’ll take a rest there. After everybody recovers, we will go again." Bing Qing Tong turned around to check her daughters and then said begrudgingly.
As they heard about the rest, those beautiful girls had their spirit pushed up, moving faster towards the lake in the middle of the world of snow and ice.
Snow bordered the four sides of the lake. The water was so clear that they could see the lake bottom. However, cold air was thick there, so no fishes could be seen. When the snowflakes fell into the lake, they melted immediately. This lake seemed to be immune from dust. From afar, it looked like a giant mirror, as the morning light shone on the lake while sparkling magnificently.
A bunch of pretty ladies giggled, coming to wash their faces in the lake, fixing their appearance. The cold water of the lake helped reduce their tiredness.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu didn’t join them as they were watching around with caution, not relaxing for a moment.
Shi Yan strode forward, taking in a deep breath of fresh but cold air. He talked to the two women, "How could you live like that for many years? I can see that you guys are very familiar with running away. Don’t tell me that there’re always strong, pervert warriors who come to the Ice Emperor City to harm you?"
This group of young maids wasn’t fluttered along the way while running. Obviously, they had gotten used to it, and this wasn’t the first time they had such an experience. This surprised Shi Yan a lot.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu put on a face that was even colder. They snorted, but didn’t answer him.
"Ah, it’s true that you often run away for your lives?" Shi Yan was astounded.
"This Ice Emperor City is situated in the far east of the Divine Great Land, in a poor area. Besides you guys, to the strong warriors, nothing else is worth their efforts. It seems the beauties are always the big attractions. Haha, with you guys, my days would pass with thrill."
