At this moment, Zhao Bing`er's slender fingers were tightly intertwined with Lu Xuan's left hand. For an ordinary couple, this might be an insignificant and very ordinary intimate action, but for Zhao Bing`er, this action was enough to set off a storm in the Profound Ice Pavilion.
Seeing Lu Xuan raise his ten fingers as if to demonstrate his power, no matter how good Leng Qingqiu's self-restraint was, his face was already ashen. His hands behind his back were tightly clenched into fists, displaying the monstrous anger in his master's heart.
Leng Qingqiu's eyes stared at the place where their fingers were intertwined. His sharp gaze seemed to want to separate Lu Xuan's and Zhao Bing`er's hands, but in the end, he did not have this kind of inconceivable ability. He could only watch as the hands stopped in front of his eyes. One breath, two breaths …
For Leng Qingqiu, he did not lack women. Even if Zhao Bing`er was very beautiful and alluring, it was not irreplaceable. To him, women were just a tool to vent his lust. Beautiful women were just a slightly higher level tool to vent his lust. Leng Qingqiu was undoubtedly more passionate about the former.
The reason why he had attacked Zhao Bing`er in the past was only because of Zhao Bing`er's special physique and her special identity.
The Mysterious Yin Body's physique could bring him a lot of benefits, and as Zhao Ying's only disciple, if he could obtain Zhao Bing`er, it would be equivalent to obtaining Zhao Ying's support. This would be of great help to him in reaching the top of the Profound Ice Pavilion.
Unfortunately, everything was for naught. When his plan was seen through by Zhao Bing`er, and when Zhao Ying, who he thought had fallen, returned safely, Leng Qingqiu knew that his plan had been destroyed. However, he did not care too much about it. It was just that he had lost a support.
However, he still couldn't let go of his pursuit of Zhao Bing`er, because everyone in the Profound Ice Pavilion knew that he, Leng Qingqiu, was pursuing Zhao Bing`er. For the sake of his own face, he had to continue pursuing. Of course, his main goal wasn't to truly pursue Zhao Bing`er, but to make others not dare to get involved. This way, he, Leng Qingqiu, wouldn't lose face. He believed and was confident that no one in the entire Profound Ice Pavilion would dare to disobey his intentions.
Don't you see, countless disciples of the Profound Ice Pavilion worship Zhao Binger as a goddess, but no one dared to try to get close to her. One of the reasons was naturally because Zhao Binger kept people at a distance of a thousand miles, and the other reason was because of Leng Qingqiu's power. No one dared to snatch the woman he fancied.
However, things were always unexpected. No one in the Profound Ice Pavilion dared to have any ideas about Zhao Bing`er, but from a small third-grade sect, a small Wind Sword School, a reckless guy climbed up and tried to have ideas about Zhao Bing`er.
When Leng Qingqiu first heard this news, he was disdainful of it. He knew Zhao Bing`er very well, and he also knew that her standards were high. Ordinary people couldn't enter her field of vision, so he didn't believe that a mere third-grade sect's little guy would be able to obtain her favor. Even in the Profound Ice Realm, she personally stood up for him.
But later on, this little guy from a third-grade sect unexpectedly showed his outstanding talent again. In the battle between the Wind Sword School and the Nine Star Sword Sect, he displayed a battle strength not inferior to the peak of the Spirit Refinement Realm. Moreover, he also obtained the approval of that stubborn woman Zhao Ying, and became Zhao Ying's direct disciple. At this time, Leng Qingqiu really looked up to Lu Xuan, but it was only a high opinion, and it was far from the level of importance.
But even so, it was not something that Leng Qingqiu could endure. In his opinion, a woman that he could not obtain, Lu Xuan did not have the qualifications to obtain, nor did he have the qualifications to have any ideas about her. His appearance here this time was not a coincidence, but intentional. He came to deliberately knock Lu Xuan down, to make him realize the gap between them, and to make him stay away from Zhao Binger.
However, Lu Xuan's sudden attack completely destroyed Leng Qingqiu's plan. When Lu Xuan held Zhao Bing`er's hand, Leng Qingqiu was already defeated. He was defeated so thoroughly, so thoroughly, and it was in front of countless disciples. It was like a fierce slap on his face, and the sound was so loud.
Leng Qingqiu never thought that Lu Xuan had already won Zhao Bing`er's heart, and he even dared to publicly announce their relationship. It could be said that this move of Lu Xuan's completely destroyed his plan, and exceeded his expectations. There were no sharp words, no excessive words, just a simple action, and Leng Qingqiu was completely defeated.
However, Leng Qingqiu would never have thought that the acquaintance between Lu Xuan and Zhao Bing`er could be said to be caused by him. If Zhao Bing`er didn't see through his intentions, if he didn't send people to kill Zhao Bing`er, it would be impossible for Lu Xuan, who was only at the 7th level of the Body Refinement Realm, to know such a phoenix like Zhao Bing`er.
In front of the Martial Skill Pavilion, the atmosphere suddenly became strange. Leng Qingqiu's emotions became extremely unstable. Ever since he became Nangong Shuo's first disciple, he had an extremely strong prestige in the Profound Ice Pavilion. There had never been anyone who dared to openly challenge him like Lu Xuan.
A wave of chilliness was released from Leng Qingqiu's body. Han Feng and the others who were standing behind him could not help but shiver. This was not a chilliness that came from their hearts, but a real and oppressive cold air. Leng Qingqiu trained in the Mysterious Ice Heart Sutra, which was originally an extremely cold cultivation method. People who trained in this kind of cultivation method often had a rather cold appearance. No matter if it was the creator, Ice Phoenix, or Zhao Ying, or Zhao Bing`er, they all more or less carried a trace of cold temperament.
However, in order to maintain his friendly image in front of his juniors, Leng Qingqiu forcefully suppressed this aura, and instead displayed a temperament that was as harmonious as the spring breeze. However, this did not mean that the natural cold air had disappeared, it was only suppressed within his body. Usually, Leng Qingqiu controlled it extremely well, and naturally would not have a situation where he would lose control. However, he had lost control now, and it was enough to see the violent fluctuations in his heart.
The chilliness was still intensifying. Not only did Han Feng and the others feel it, even the spectating disciples standing in the distance felt it. Everyone's gazes towards Leng Qingqiu revealed a trace of astonishment. They could see the gloomy coldness and madness in Leng Qingqiu's eyes. Two completely different emotions appeared on Leng Qingqiu's body at the same time, and it seemed so terrifying.
The crowd of disciples who were originally jealous of Lu Xuan being able to obtain Zhao Bing`er's favor, at this moment, were undoubtedly incomparably sympathetic towards Lu Xuan. They believed that Lu Xuan would definitely receive Leng Qingqiu's all-out revenge.
Sensing that Leng Qingqiu had lost control of his emotions, Zhao Bing`er could not help but once again hold Lu Xuan's hand tightly. She was a little worried about Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan faintly smiled and returned Zhao Bing`er's hand, indicating that he was fine and telling her to be at ease. At the same time, he once again opened his mouth and said: "Looking at Senior Brother Leng's performance, it's obvious that he's more satisfied with my identity. This is good, it seems that I still have the qualifications to speak."
Lu Xuan's sudden words broke the silence in the field, and also broke the chilly atmosphere created by Leng Qingqiu. The crowd of disciples who were pressured by this strange atmosphere to the point of being unable to breathe all let out long sighs of relief, and relaxed once again. At the same time, they began to take this previously unknown Lu Xuan seriously. To be able to obtain Zhao Bing`er's favor, to dare to directly confront Leng Qingqiu, and to make Leng Qingqiu lose face in front of countless people, no matter from which point of view, Lu Xuan was extraordinary.
Being shocked by Lu Xuan's words, Leng Qingqiu suddenly woke up. His eyes swept the surroundings, and he discovered that the crowd of disciples was looking at him with a slightly different gaze. He could not help but curse in his heart. Damn it, he actually lost control of his emotions, and almost exposed the inner heart that he had concealed for a long time.
Leng Qingqiu's self-control was extremely strong. The chill that had just spread throughout the entire field suddenly disappeared, and the entire Martial Skill Pavilion became warm. Leng Qingqiu's cold expression suddenly disappeared, as if the ice had thawed, and was replaced with the amiable expression from before.
"So Junior Brother Lu has already walked together with Junior Sister Bing'er. This is my fault. The news is too blocked, and I actually did not know at the first moment. Then I will now congratulate the two of you." Leng Qingqiu said with a warm smile and cupped his hands.
"It's alright, it's alright. As Junior Brothers, we did not do enough. We should have sent someone to inform Senior Brother Leng." Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"Hehehehe …" Leng Qingqiu squeezed out a few dry laughs. He really did not know what to say. He originally came to beat Lu Xuan, but he did not expect to be ruthlessly humiliated by Lu Xuan.
However, Leng Qingqiu was still Leng Qingqiu. No matter when, no matter who he was facing, he still had to give enough face to maintain his Eldest Senior Brother's demeanor. He immediately continued: "This should be the first time that Junior Brother Lu and I meet. First, I congratulate Junior Brother Lu for joining Elder Zhao Ying's sect. Second, I also congratulate Lu Xuan and Junior Sister Bing'er's marriage. I came in a hurry, so I did not bring any greeting gifts."
After a pause, Leng Qingqiu took a jade pendant from his waist and said: "This jade is called Tranquil Heart. It is made from Thousand Year Profound Ice. Not only does it have the effect of calming the spirit, but it is also extremely beneficial to the cultivation of our Profound Ice Pavilion's people. I will give it to the two of you as a congratulatory gift."
Looking at Leng Qingqiu introducing the jade pendant in his hand as if nothing had happened, Lu Xuan could not help but admire this guy's self-restraint. If it was him, he would have already flipped out. Why would he think so much? But living like this, was it really not tiring? Lu Xuan still preferred a simple, carefree life.
Of course, admiration was admiration, but it did not mean that he would change his view of Leng Qingqiu. No matter what, Lu Xuan did not like Leng Qingqiu. She was too hypocritical, too scheming.
Looking at the piece of Tranquil Heart that Leng Qingqiu handed over, Lu Xuan showed a very happy expression, looking extremely satisfied with this gift. In fact, this was indeed the case. Although the Thousand Year Profound Ice could not compare to the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice, its value was still extremely expensive. But in fact, for Lu Xuan, a small piece of Thousand Year Profound Ice might not even be worth his attention.
One must know that the Profound Ice Phoenix's Blood Sword was made from Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice. How valuable was it? Moreover, the same Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice had a difference in value. How could an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice compare to a Hundred Thousand Year Profound Ice or a Million Year Profound Ice? The Profound Ice Phoenix's Blood Sword was undoubtedly made from a Million Year Profound Ice that could only be found but not sought. Lu Xuan carried a Profound Ice Phoenix's Blood Sword that was condensed from a Million Year Profound Ice. How could he put this small piece of Thousand Year Profound Ice in his eyes?
