At this time, only Lin Xiu and the Ice Phoenix Patriarch were left in the main hall. Everyone else had left.
"Lin Xiu, to be honest, I didn't intend to let the clan participate in this war at all, but the methods of the Netherworld Palace are too despicable. Now I need to make a deal with you. If my clan participates in the war, you must think of a way to ensure their safety. "The Ice Phoenix Patriarch had a serious look on her face.
"Patriarch, I am only at the third level of the Universe realm. This request is really too much." Lin Xiu looked troubled.
"Don't worry, I have lived for thousands of years now, but I have never seen anyone who can cultivate to this level at such a young age. I am very optimistic about you. I have seen a very strange temperament from you. I believe that you will definitely be able to do something in the continent in the future. "The Ice Phoenix Patriarch said with a sigh.
Lin Xiu could only nod solemnly. No matter what, he could not let down the other party's trust. With the participation of the Ice Phoenix Clan and the Fire Phoenix Clan, there was no doubt that their chances of winning this war would increase a lot.
"Let's go, follow me to the back to take a look." The Ice Phoenix Patriarch patted Lin Xiu's shoulder and took the lead to lead the way.
Not long after, the two arrived at a courtyard. It was as warm as spring and there was no cold aura.
Lin Xiu couldn't help but be a little puzzled. He was very surprised when he saw that Xiaowu liked the warm spring scenery. He didn't expect that even the Ice Phoenix Patriarch would also like this kind of environment.
Looking around, Lin Xiu found that the courtyard covered an area of less than half an acre, but there were all kinds of flowers and plants.
The plants inside were some very common things on the continent and there was nothing particularly precious. But it was precisely because of this that the entire courtyard gave people a very warm feeling.
"Are you very surprised that as the patriarch of the Ice Phoenix Clan and the person who has the most thorough understanding of ice in the entire continent, I like this kind of courtyard?" The Ice Phoenix Patriarch looked at Lin Xiu with a smile.
"Actually, in the beginning, I was like the other clansmen and liked to live in the ice. I liked that kind of cold environment that can keep people absolutely clear. But then I met Little Five and Xue Qing's mother. From then on, everything changed. " The Ice Phoenix Matriarch's words revealed some sadness, but there were also some beautiful memories mixed in.
"Although the clan has always prohibited ordinary Ice Phoenixes from going to the continent to train, the truth is that basically all elders have to experience some life and death trials if they want to break through to the Universe Stage. Therefore, when Elder Xue Ying said those words in the hall, not many people were puzzled because most of them have experienced similar things." The Ice Phoenix Clan Leader sighed.
"Senior, then is Xiao Wu's mother also a human?" Lin Xiu asked the doubt in his heart.
Nodding, the Ice Phoenix Clan Chief walked up to the loquat tree at the center of the courtyard and stroked its branches.
"Back then, after I reached the peak of the Sky Yuan Realm, in order to smoothly break through to the Universe Stage, I also chose to do the same as most people and came to the outside world incognito."
"Over there, I hid my cultivation and then joined a sect. With my strong foundation, all the ancient books of that sect had no secrets in front of me and I soon completely understood them. After that, I slowly released my cultivation and became a dazzling genius in the eyes of my fellow disciples. "
When talking about these young years, the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader seemed a little sad.
"If you want to break through to the Universe Stage from the Sky Yuan Realm, you have to understand more about the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. It is really rare to see someone like Xue Qing who directly went into seclusion and broke through naturally." The Ice Phoenix Clan Leader suddenly mentioned her daughter at this time, her expression full of pride.
"After obtaining a certain status in that sect, I felt that staying there would not be of any help to me, so I began to travel the continent."
"I can't remember how many difficulties I encountered and walked on the edge of life and death time and time again, causing my calm heart to become hot-blooded and impulsive."
"In the end, I met Xiao Wu's mother in a small tavern at the foot of a mountain. At that time, Xiao Wu's mother was the manager of the tavern and had a warm smile all day long. She had two dimples and looked very beautiful." The Ice Phoenix Clan Leader revealed a sincere smile on her face.
"Gradually, I felt that as long as I could see such a smile every day, then any price would be worth it. So I gradually forgot my identity and just drank in that tavern every day. After a long time, my relationship with the female manager naturally improved by leaps and bounds. "
"After that, we naturally got married and even had our own child. But the human physique is too weak. When I gave birth to Xue Qing, it caused her vitality to be greatly damaged. In order to improve her physique, I had to return to this world of ice and snow in the end. "
"Back then, I wasn't the leader of the Ice Phoenix Clan yet. I was just the previous leader of the Ice Phoenix Clan, one of many children. When my father saw that I had brought back a human woman, he was naturally furious. However, seeing that he had already raised a daughter for me, he didn't make a fuss about it.
"However, the world that our clan lived in was too monotonous and boring for Xiaowu's mother. As time went on, she became depressed every day and the smile on her face disappeared. So in order to make her smile again, I used my own cultivation to evolve this small world. Look, it's beautiful. "The Ice Phoenix Clan Leader smiled slightly.
Lin Xiu could also feel that the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader and his wife were definitely in love with each other and lived a very happy life.
"But there is nothing perfect in this world. Later, Xiao Wu's mother gave birth to Xiao Wu. For the sake of her health, I wasn't going to have this child at that time."
"But she told me that every child is the flesh and blood of their parents. Since she was already pregnant, there was absolutely no reason for me to not have this child. Later, sure enough, after giving birth to Xiao Wu, she directly passed away. "A tear flowed from the corner of the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader's eyes.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Lin Xiu and said, "Do you know why Xiao Wu has always been not focused on cultivation, but I have never reprimanded him? It's because his personality is too similar to his mother's. When I have the ability to provide shelter for the child, I don't want Xiao Wu to be hurt in the slightest. So as long as she can be happy, I will be satisfied as a father. "
Lin Xiu also nodded. When he was a son, he didn't have a deep understanding of these things, but now that he was a father, he could fully understand the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader's painstaking efforts.
Just like Lin Jie's talent bloodline, although it was extremely terrifying, Lin Xiu still wanted him to be able to live a stable and peaceful life, and not be in danger of being devoured by the bloodline all day long.
Reaching out and slowly stroking the loquat tree, a smile appeared on the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader's face again, then she said softly, "Both of our children have grown up and are very sensible. Even Xiao Wu is very motivated now. When the matter of the Netherworld Palace is completely resolved, I will come to accompany you."
Lin Xiu stood aside and did not go forward to disturb her. Instead, he turned and left.
Most of the time, the love between a man and a woman was not about vows of eternal love, but about gradually tolerating each other's shortcomings and understanding and appreciating each other's strengths. In this way, the two could be together for a long time.
Although the love between the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader and his wife was not vigorous, the Ice Phoenix Clan Leader had always been thinking about his wife. He even planted a loquat tree with his own hands and would come to the yard every day to accompany and talk to his wife.
However, in the current continent, many couples would pursue each other vigorously because of the other's background or appearance. When the novelty wore off, both of them would fly away. It wasn't that this situation was wrong, but it was far from what people imagined love to be.
Lin Xiu walked out of the palace and looked at the ice houses standing on the street with a smile on his face.
After the obstacles brought about by the Netherworld Palace were completely resolved, if he could find a place with verdant hills, clear waters, birdsong, and fragrant flowers, and live a secluded life, it would definitely be a very happy thing.
But Lin Xiu suddenly thought of Huo Ling'er and couldn't help but feel a headache. Now, he really didn't know how to talk to Yang Yingxi about this when he returned home.
There must be a way. Lin Xiu shook his head and suppressed these thoughts at the bottom of his heart. Now, the most important thing was to return to Huai Ning City as soon as possible. The most important thing was to seal his son's vitality.
Suddenly, a figure in an ice blue dress appeared in front of Lin Xiu with her back facing him.
"Previously, father has told me everything, I can leave at any time. When do you think we should leave here?"
The person who came was Xue Qing. So many things happened during the day that made her extremely annoyed, so she wandered aimlessly on the street. She didn't expect to meet Lin Xiu here.
"If it's possible, I want to leave tomorrow." Lin Xiu first bowed to Xue Qing to show his politeness, then opened his mouth and said.
