On a vast icy lake, a white-haired old man sat alone, fishing.
Behind the old man stood a middle-aged man with a respectful expression, waiting for the old man to speak.
The old man lifted his fishing rod and a small silver fish was pulled out of the water.
"It has been a long time since I last caught a Silver Snow Ice Arowana. Looks like you have something important to tell me."
The old man unhurriedly placed the small silver fish into the fish basket. Then, he turned around and looked at the middle-aged man. "Has there been any unusual movements on the First Elder's side recently?"
"No!"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Today, I met Murong Nana in the Wood Hall. I saw that she had exchanged for a Hundred Million Year Spirit Void Wood Jade Willow."
"Spirit Void Wood Jade Willow?"
The old man frowned and pondered, "Palace Master Ice Pole is indeed worthy of his name. He is still making a final struggle even in such a situation."
After hearing the old man's analysis, the middle-aged man was shocked and said, "Father, you mean that the Spirit Void Wood Jade Willow that Murong Nana exchanged was prepared for Palace Master Ice Pole?"
"That's right!"
The old man nodded and said, "With Murong Nana's relationship with Palace Master Ice Pole, she would not watch him die. It seems that the Demon Sealing Ceremony in a month's time will put a lot of pressure on Palace Master Ice Pole."
"Father, what should we do now?" The middle-aged man asked.
"We don't have to do anything. With the Great Elder's temperament, he would not sit by and do nothing."
The old man had a scheming look on his face. He picked up the fishing rod again and threw the hook out of the ice river.
Seeing the old man's action, the middle-aged man nodded and was about to leave.
At this moment, a young man ran toward the two of them with an excited look on his face.
When he came to the two of them, the young man was excited and said loudly, "Father, I just received news that Bing Pingyu is gathering people to go to the Fire Xuan Continent to pick the Hundred Million Year Fire Coral. It seems that he wants to use it to expel the cold Qi in Old Man Ice Pole's body. Should we stop him?"
Hearing the young man's words, the old man was calm. He picked up the fishing rod and said, "It seems that the peaceful days are over. Even fishing is so difficult."
After putting away the fishing rod, the old man slowly stood up and walked out of the ice river with the fish basket.
Seeing the old man's actions, the two hurriedly followed and left the ice river together.
Not long after, they arrived at a large hall and gathered some people.
"Bing Mo, where did you get your information from?"
Seeing that everyone was present, the old man asked the young man unhurriedly.
Hearing the old man's question, Bing Mo didn't dare to hide anything. He immediately explained the origin of the news, "I'm not sure who spread the news, but everyone is secretly spreading it. They say that Bing Pingyu found Zhang Qingming today and asked him to prepare to go to the Fire Xuan Continent, to the bottom of the Hundred Thousand Li Fire Region to pick the Hundred Million Year Fire Coral."
"Also, everyone said that Bing Pingyu wanted the hundred-million-year-old Fire Coral to expel the cold poison from Old Man Polar Ice."
After Bing Mo finished speaking, the people in the hall began to whisper to each other.
"Second Elder, the Great Demon Sealing Hall is approaching. We can't allow anything to happen."
"That's right. We can't let them succeed. We have to stop them."
"Although the hundred-million-year-old Blazing Coral might not be able to expel the cold poison, it can temporarily suppress it. If Polar Snow is able to catch his breath because of this, it will be troublesome."
…
After discussing for a while, everyone gave their suggestions to the Second Elder.
After listening to everyone's suggestions, the Second Elder turned to the middle-aged man and asked, "Bing Shuang, what do you think about this?"
"Combined with Murong Nana's previous actions, it seems that they have already planned this."
Hearing the Second Elder's question, Bing Shuang didn't hold back and spoke his thoughts.
The Second Elder nodded and said with a scheming expression, "Palace Master Polar Ice is indeed Palace Master Polar Ice. We can't let our guard down. Although I don't know what he wants to do, we can't let him get the hundred-million-year-old Blazing Coral."
"Bing Shuang, immediately go and gather people. When the time comes, go to the Fire Xuan Continent and stop them from picking the hundred-million-year-old Blazing Coral."
"Also, tell this to the Great Elder. We can't let them sit and watch the show."
Hearing the Second Elder's instructions, Bing Shuang immediately stood up and walked out of the hall.
After instructing Bing Shuang, the Second Elder sneered and said, "Palace Master, you finally can't sit still. It seems that you have exhausted all your tricks. If that's the case, I won't hold back. It's time for me to be the Palace Master."
The Second Elder muttered to himself and didn't say anything else. He lifted his feet and walked out of the hall.
…
A few days passed very quickly.
In these few days, everything in the Ice Hall was extremely peaceful. The usual conflicts between the factions had stopped.
This strange peace made everyone feel very oppressed. It was as if a storm was about to come.
In Polar Ice's room, Mo Qingyun once again withdrew his hands and stopped healing Polar Ice.
"Martial Ancestor, your injuries have stabilized. Next, you can refine the elixir."
After stopping healing Polar Ice, Mo Qingyun briefly explained his situation to them.
Polar Ice stretched his body and sensed his condition. He revealed a bright smile and said, "It's been hard on you during this period. Don't force yourself to pick the hundred-million-year-old fire coral. Don't put yourself in danger."
"Don't be anxious if you can't pick the hundred-million-year-old fire coral. We can slowly think of a way. My injuries have been there for so many years. I don't mind waiting a little longer."
"Okay!"
After hearing Polar Ice's explanation, Mo Qingyun nodded.
After chatting with Polar Ice for a while, Mo Qingyun waved his hand and opened the door.
Soon after, Murong Nana and the others came in and walked towards Polar Ice with concerned expressions.
"Martial Ancestor's injuries have stabilized. We can set off for the Fire Profound Continent."
Seeing that everyone had entered the room, Mo Qingyun instructed them to prepare to pick the hundred-million-year-old fire coral.
After hearing Mo Qingyun's plan, Murong Nana's old face turned serious and said, "This trip to the Fire Profound Continent will definitely not be smooth. I will go with you."
"It's the best to have Senior with us."
Murong Nana's action made Bing Pingyu's face light up with joy. He said, "However, although senior will be accompanying us and can guarantee our safety, we will still need some helpers to enter the Hundred Thousand Miles Fire Domain. I have already prepared helpers."
"You've found helpers?"
Hearing Bing Pingyu's words, Mo Qingyun frowned. He had a bad feeling.
However, Bing Pingyu had good intentions. Hence, Mo Qingyun did not say anything.
Next, Bing Pingyu sent a message to Zhang Qingming, asking him to come to Polar Ice's residence.
Not long after, Zhang Qingming arrived and exchanged a few pleasantries with everyone.
"Junior Brother Zhang, this is Junior Nephew Mo Qingyun. Your mission is to ensure his safety."
Seeing that Zhang Qingming had arrived, Bing Pingyu introduced him. He then instructed Mo Qingyun, "Junior Nephew Mo, Junior Brother Zhang Qingming is father's fourth disciple. He has always been loyal to father. There will be no problem if he protects you when you enter the Hundred Thousand Miles Fire Domain."
"Okay!"
After knowing Zhang Qingming's identity, Mo Qingyun nodded politely.
