Get down to business?
The three snow maidens' hearts jolted with shock.
They had expended too much energy in order to deal with the Dragon Tribe. From the power displayed by An Lin and the others, they would undoubtedly lose if a battle were to break out.
"What do you want?" Palace Leader Qi asked in a cold voice.
Lu Wei was also looking at An Lin with a nervous expression as she gripped her longsword tightly in case An Lin attacked.
An Lin shook his head with a faint smile. "You already know who I am, so can't you guess what I want? If it weren't for Shangguan Yi, all of you would be dead now. "
He clasped his hands behind his back. "So … I'm going to start asking questions now. Number one, what is Shangguan Yi doing in the crystal? "
The three snow maidens stared at An Lin with cold expressions.
An Lin: "… Are you really going to give me no face?"
"This is a confidential matter of our tribe, so I can't tell you," Palace Leader Qi replied with a determined expression.
"You won't tell me even if you die?" An Lin asked.
"I won't tell you even if I die." Palace Leader Qi stared at An Lin with a determined expression.
An Lin's eyes narrowed as killing intent radiated from his body.
At the same time, a golden light flashed through his eyes as golden ripples proliferated outward.
Lu Wei and the other snow maiden's bodies immediately tensed up as they stared at An Lin. It was as if they were looking at a paramount being, sending chills running down their spines.
Even so, they still gritted their teeth and refused to say anything.
Xue Zhantian's body also began to tremble as he sensed An Lin's aura.
It's here … Master's invincible aura is here! I will definitely be able to break through the heavens with him!
An Lin heaved an internal sigh upon seeing the snow maidens' reactions. If it weren't for the fact that he was worried that all of the snow maidens would die and Shangguan Yi would be trapped in the crystal, he would have given up on these snow maidens a long time ago.
Thus, the two parties stood in mid-air in a stalemate.
Lu Wei's eyes lingered on Xue Zhantian and Xue Mengmeng with scorching desire in her eyes.
Those were snow soul beasts … They were the beast pets of her dreams!
It's really too cute. I really want to touch it!
It was a pity that she couldn't do anything on her own during this mission. Otherwise, she would definitely try to capture a snow soul beast for herself.
"An Lin, what should we do next?" Ling Ying floated towards An Lin and asked.
An Lin's head was starting to throb. Even the snow maidens didn't choose to flee in the face of such powerful Dragon Tribe cultivators, so he could tell that this wasn't something that could be resolved through brute force alone.
"Why don't we just smash open the crystal?" Hong Dou suggested.
An Lin's lips twitched, and he shot a glance at Hong Dou before falling silent.
If this b * stard was responsible for saving Shangguan Yi, she would definitely suffer from Qi Deviation.
"Then let me ask you another question. What is Shangguan Yi's status in your world?" An Lin asked again.
Lu Wei smiled upon hearing this. "You don't need to worry about that. She's Meng Zhi now …"
"Pa!"
Palace Lord Qi slapped the back of Lu Wei's hand and glared at her angrily.
She immediately lowered her head like a deflated balloon and fell silent.
An Lin rolled his eyes upon seeing this, but he didn't give up. "How long will Shangguan Yi be in this state for? How long will it take for her to come out? "
The three snow maidens remained silent.
An Lin continued, "Hmm … Let's get to know each other first. What are your names?"
The three snow maidens: "…"
Palace Lord Qi thought for a moment before replying, "My name is Qi Yiyao. If you're planning to take Shangguan Yi away, then I suggest you stop wasting your time. She has already officially joined the Holy Glacial Lands and is cultivating the cultivation methods of our snow maidens. Furthermore, she can be considered a member of our race. "
An Lin splayed his hands open. "You don't need to worry about that. I'll ask her myself."
A crisp crack sounded at this moment, as if in response to An Lin's words.
Crack …
A circular hole suddenly appeared in the crystal, and blue ripples proliferated outward, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
An Lin and the other snow maidens all turned to look at the crystal with excitement on their faces.
Shangguan Yi made her way out of the circular hole, and her blue dress danced in the wind, making her appear as if she were a blue lotus in full bloom.
She opened her golden eyes, and a faint regal might emanated from her body, as if she were a regal and inviolable queen.
"Congratulations on your successful awakening, Sister Shangguan." A vibrant smile appeared on Qi Yiyao's face.
"Sister Shangguan, I'm here to take you back!" An Lin also waved a hand with a smile.
Shangguan Yi looked up at An Lin with a cold expression and shook her head. "Thank you for saving me, An Lin, but I'm already a member of the Holy Glacial Lands, and I won't be going back."
An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this. "Have you encountered some kind of problem that you can't resolve? It's alright, I'll help you. "
"That's not the reason. I'm doing this voluntarily, so don't ask me."
Shangguan Yi shook her head before making her way toward Qi Yiyao and the others without any hesitation on her face.
An Lin gritted his teeth. "Didn't you say that the Vermilion Bird Sect has always been your home? There are so many people waiting for you to come back, so why didn't you come back? Why did you choose to join the enemy of the sect?! "
Shangguan Yi's footsteps faltered slightly as her golden eyes rippled, and her slender fingers trembled slightly.
"Enemy of the sect, huh …"
"People change, and it's not impossible for friends and family to become enemies …"
She turned to An Lin with a smile on her face. "Thank you very much for your help, but let's be clear about who we stand on in the future. You're humans, and I'm a snow maiden. So don't act like this again the next time we meet. "
"Palace Leader Qi, let's go." She turned to leave without looking at An Lin as she spoke.
The three snow maidens glanced at An Lin and the others before flying toward Shangguan Yi.
"Wait!"
An Lin's voice sounded again.
Shangguan Yi and the snow maidens both looked at him with confusion in their eyes. Qi Yiyao spoke in a cold voice, "Shangguan Yi has already made things so clear, what else do you want?!"
"Leave your storage rings behind!" An Lin spoke with a serious expression.
The three snow maidens: "???"
"Oh, Shangguan Yi doesn't need them," An Lin added.
Shangguan Yi: "…"
"What … what do you want our storage rings for?" Qi Yiyao stared at An Lin with astonishment on her face.
"Of course, do you think I don't need money to fight for you? Leave your storage rings behind, or we'll use force, "An Lin threatened in a cold voice.
Ling Ying, Hong Dou, and the two snow soul beasts flew off in different directions as he spoke, clearly intending to use force …
Qi Yiyao's lips twitched slightly. She clearly didn't expect things to turn out like this.
The other two snow maidens were also dumbstruck as they stared blankly at An Lin.
Couldn't they just part ways? Why did he suddenly have to rob them?!
Shangguan Yi heaved a forlorn sigh. "Palace Leader Qi, we're too weak …"
Qi Yiyao glared at An Lin with resentment in her eyes, as if she was trying to carve his face into her heart.
"Here!" She pulled out her storage ring and tossed it toward An Lin.
Lu Wei looked at An Lin with tears welling up in her eyes. Never would she have thought that this human would even want her storage ring! Where was his integrity? Where was his demeanor as a powerful being?!
She silently pulled out her storage ring and tossed it toward An Lin as a certain image in her heart crumbled.
The other snow maiden could only hand over her storage ring to An Lin upon seeing this, and her chest was trembling with rage.
"Alright, bye!" An Lin waved a hand with a satisfied expression, indicating that they could leave.
There was another reason why he was willing to let Shangguan Yi leave so easily, and that was because Shangguan Yi would be betraying the Holy Glacial Lands if she followed him. However, Shangguan Yi's teleportation talisman teleported her to the Holy Glacial Lands. If she really did betray them, what were they going to do when they got back …
That's definitely going to be the end!
Thus, he had to take things slowly. He would just have to get some benefits from the Snow Maidens and express his attitude.
The three snow maidens left with dark expressions, as if they had just swallowed a fly.
They swore in their hearts that if they ever encountered An Lin again, they would definitely kill this bastard and take back their Storage Rings!
