Chapter Index

Ran Yunting nodded slightly, her gaze coldly sweeping over Qingya’s face.

For some reason, perhaps because of Yang Kai, Ran Yunting suddenly found this outer island disciple from Tongxuan Continent a bit of an eyesore. Yang Kai’s unenlightened face flashed in her mind, making her feel irritable.

What are you all arguing about here? Don’t you know that Su Yan is in seclusion?” Ran Yunting shouted sternly.

A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the two female disciples responsible for guarding Su Yan. Sensing that the Great Elder was not in a good mood, they immediately became submissive.

The woman with the surname Zhou glanced at Qingya and said aggrievedly, “Elder Sister, this junior sister insisted on going in to visit Su Yan. The disciples have already stopped her, but she is still chattering here and refuses to leave!”

“Elder Sister, it’s not that the disciples deliberately want to disturb Su Yan. There is really a reason for it!” Another woman also complained.

Ran Yunting’s sharp gaze fell on Qingya and said coldly, “Refuse to leave? Don’t you know to beat her back? Have you been practicing for nothing all these years?”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Qingya and the other three people froze.

It seemed that none of them expected the Elder Sister to say such a thing.

In the Ice Heart Valley, although there are disputes and gaps between senior and junior sisters, no one has ever fought.

But the Elder Sister actually meant to let herself take action and beat Qingya up? The woman with the surname Zhou couldn’t turn her head around for a while and stood there stupidly.

“Why are you still standing there stupidly? Are your ears deaf?” Ran Yunting shouted again.

The woman with the surname Zhou was shocked and then came back to her senses. She knew that the Elder Sister was not Youdaoplaceholder0. She was angry at being scolded and was just worried that there was no place to vent. Hearing this she shouted coquettishly, “Yes, the disciple will follow the Elder Sister’s order!”

As she spoke, the Saint Yuan circulated and she pushed a palm towards Qingya.

“Great Elder…” Qingya opened her mouth and called out, but had only shouted a few words when she was hit in the chest by a fierce burst of qi energy. Her delicate body was almost uncontrollably sent flying backwards. While in mid-air, she spat out a mouthful of blood, which dyed her white dress red.

Rumble…

Qingya flew straight out more than ten zhang away and hit an ice wall. Only then did she land in a sorry state.

Her face was deathly pale without a trace of blood. She forced herself to get up with great effort and didn’t catch her breath for a long time.

She was currently at the cultivation level of Saint King Realm Layer 2, but the Zhou woman who had attacked her was at the Void Return Realm Layer 1. The huge gap in cultivation level made it impossible for her to withstand a single blow from the other party.

With just one palm, Qingya had already been injured!

Her beautiful eyes trembled violently as she looked at Ran Yunting in disbelief, as if she still hadn’t come to her senses and didn’t understand why the Great Elder would suddenly issue such an unreasonable order!

“Scram! If you dare to set foot on the Inner Island again in the future, this Elder will definitely expel you from Ice Heart Valley!” Ran Yunting was merciless and coldly rebuked.

“Qingya!” Su Yan’s room door suddenly opened. Her face showed a look of anxiety, and her delicate body swayed as she was about to rush towards Qingya.

Just now, although she had heard the dispute between Qingya and the Zhou woman and the others, because of Ran Yunting’s order, she didn’t dare to show herself without permission and could only close the door and not see them.

But now, Qingya had actually been injured, and she could no longer hold back!

The two of them came from the Tongxuan Continent and were both accepted into the Ice Heart Valley to cultivate. They were as close as sisters. How could she just watch Qingya being beaten?

But before she could even fully show herself, Ran Yunting casually flicked her hand, and a powerful gust of wind rushed towards her, directly pressing Su Yan back.

“If you dare to take a step out, I will kill her right now!” Ran Yunting stood outside the ice room, looking at Su Yan’s grief-stricken face with a cold and stern expression.

A hint of fear flashed across Su Yan’s face. She looked at Ran Yunting with an extremely unfamiliar gaze. She opened her mouth but finally didn’t dare to act rashly. After a long while, she took a deep breath and gritted her teeth and said, “I hope Master will consider Qingya’s first offense and not punish her anymore!”

Ran Yunting nodded: “If you are obedient, I won’t make things difficult for her!”

Su Yan gritted her teeth, clenched her small fists tightly, and said softly, “Disciple will listen to Master.”

Only then did Ran Yunting show a hint of satisfaction: “That’s good! I came here this time to tell you that that person has already arrived at the Ice Absolute Island. Are you going to cut off your desires and emotions on your own to make up for the flaw in your state of mind, or do you want me to do it for you?”

Su Yan’s delicate body trembled, and she looked at Ran Yunting in horror. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a pleading look, and she murmured, ‘Master…’

Cutting off her desires and emotions was tantamount to severing all ties between her and Yang Kai. From then on, they would be like strangers.

If she let her master help, there would be only one result – Yang Kai would be killed!

Neither of these two options was something Su Yan could accept. It was more painful for her than death.

“There is no third choice other than this! I’ll give you a few days to think about it. Reply to me when you’ve thought it through!”

Su Yan’s beautiful eyes instantly dimmed, as if covered by dark clouds, unable to see the light ahead. She stood there in a daze.

When she came back to her senses, Ran Yunting had already left, and Qingya was also gone. Only the two fellow female disciples at the door smiled at her with a gloating expression.

That smile made her feel so glaring!

In the past thirty-odd years, for the first time, she had the thought of breaking the shackles on her and escaping from this place.

There was no denying that Ran Yunting was extremely good to Su Yan. Ever since she brought her to Bingxin Valley, she had been teaching her wholeheartedly, and the resources in the valley had also been maximally satisfied for her, creating an extremely good cultivation environment for Su Yan.

However, while teaching Su Yan wholeheartedly and without reservation, Ran Yunting also put shackles on Su Yan.

Her expectations for Su Yan were too great, and she burdened Su Yan with too heavy a load. It could be said that she unilaterally poured the hope that she couldn’t fulfill onto Su Yan.

The future of Bingxin Valley, the mystery of the Void King Realm. Su Yan had heard Ran Yunting mention these more than once.

Previously, she didn’t feel anything. As long as her master gave an order, she would follow it. After all, without Ran Yunting, she, Qing Ya, and Qian Hao might still be struggling on Cuiwei Star, and they wouldn’t be able to live so carefree.

But now, Su Yan felt tired.

The appearance and arrival of Yang Kai made her have someone to rely on. She didn’t want to bear the future of Bingxin Valley. She just wanted to walk the world side by side with Yang Kai and roam among the mountains and rivers.

She never had such great ambitions and desires. Her requirements were also very simple.

Outside the door, those two senior sisters unceremoniously sneered and ridiculed. You said one sentence and I said another, and they seemed to be in a very good mood.

Su Yan felt a little cold in her heart. She didn’t say much. She just sat cross-legged without saying a word and waved her hand to close the door of the ice room.

……

At the attic on the outer island, Yang Kai found the female disciple of Bingxin Valley who took care of his daily life.

This female disciple was also an outer island disciple. Her cultivation was only at the First-Order Saint Realm. She looked twenty-four or twenty-five years old. Although her appearance wasn’t very beautiful, it was quite delicate and pretty. The whole person exuded a clean atmosphere.

The disciples of Bingjue Island all cultivated ice-attribute skills, so there was a faint cold air on her.

“Girl, do you know Qing Ya?” Yang Kai looked at her and asked.

“Senior Sister Qingya? I know her!” The woman nodded and replied with a slight smile. “Our caves are not very far apart, so we often meet. Do you also know Senior Sister Qingya, Senior Brother?”

“Yes, can you take me to see her?”

“You want to see Senior Sister Qingya?” The woman was stunned, and her expression was a little hesitant. “I’m afraid that won’t do.”

“Why?”

“The elders have ordered that you can only rest here. Without the elders’ orders, you can’t walk around casually. As you know, all the disciples of our Ice Heart Valley are women, and no man has ever set foot here. If you see something you shouldn’t see when walking around…”

As she spoke, the woman’s face turned red.

“Oh… then forget it.” Yang Kai smiled freely and didn’t mean to insist. Then he chatted with the woman for a few more words before turning around and returning to the attic.

Seeing that Yang Kai didn’t force others to do what they didn’t want to do, the female disciple couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that this person was quite easy to talk to.

Back in the attic, Yang Kai’s face was calm, and his joy or anger couldn’t be seen, but he always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Am I under house arrest like this?

Moreover, since Ice Dragon, the Valley Master of Ice Heart Valley, and Ran Yunting, the Great Elder, visited together, three days have passed. In these three days, no one has come to take care of him, and even Qingya has not shown up.

This made Yang Kai a littlefeel uncertain.

It was fine that the others didn’t come, but why didn’t Qing Ya come? She knew what he had come to Ice Heart Valley for this time, yet now he was actually trapped in the attic on the outer island and couldn’t leave even a step, let alone go and visit Su Yan.

In these three days, Su Yan also hadn’t had any spiritual communication with him.

The more Yang Kai thought about it, the more inappropriate it seemed. He quietly released his spiritual thoughts and detected that the female disciple was still guarding outside the attic.

The power of space fluctuated beside Yang Kai, and the next moment, Yang Kai disappeared from the spot like a ghost.

For someone else, it might not be an easy thing to run away secretly, but for Yang Kai who had cultivated the power of space, it was extremely easy.

Under the condition that the female disciple didn’t notice at all, he had already appeared in a hidden position three miles away.

Looking up at an ice peak more than ten miles away, Yang Kai’s figure flickered and approached there.

Just now when chatting, Yang Kai deliberately or unintentionally inquired about the location of the female disciple’s cave abode and learned the specific position.

Since she said that it was not far from Qing Ya’s cave abode, then Qing Ya’s cave abode should also be on that ice peak.

It’s just that I don’t know exactly where.

In a short while, Yang Kai came to the foot of the ice peak. While concealing his aura, he looked up at the top.

Hundreds of caves had been dug out on this ice peak, and they all seemed to be inhabited. Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a little headache.

He released his spiritual thoughts to investigate. There were restrictions protecting each cave. Although with the strength of Yang Kai’s spiritual thoughts, there was no problem breaking through the restrictions of these outer island disciples’ caves, if he really did that, it would only cause trouble.

He could only frown and observe, waiting quietly.

Just when he had no clue, suddenly a team of about four or five female disciples of Bingxin Valley came to the foot of the ice peak.

The leader of those people was at the first level of the Void Returning Realm, and the others were all at the Saint King Realm.

Although their cultivation bases were not very high, Yang Kai felt that each of these women had a hint of indistinct ill will on them. This discovery made him frown.
