Jianchen's eyes narrowed. He did not answer the Lan Ancestor. Instead, he asked with some surprise, "Ancestor Lan, you've already guessed that the Snow sect is behind this?"
"Although the Ice Pole Plane is very large, there are only a few people with that ability. It's not difficult to guess," the Lan Ancestor said indifferently. Her voice was clear and melodious. It was extremely pleasant to the ear.
Jianchen agreed with that. After all, the Lan Ancestor had said that the person covering up the tracks for the Xie elder was a mid Grand Prime at the very least. In other words, they were Fourth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes or higher.
Although there were many Grand Primes on the Ice Pole Plane, most of them were early Grand Primes. Naturally, there were only a handful of mid Grand Primes.
"Ancestor Lan, can you tell me about the strength of the Snow sect?" Jianchen asked.
"The Snow sect has four Grand Primes. Two of them are Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, one is Fourth Heavenly Layer, and one is Third Heavenly Layer," the Lan Ancestor told Jianchen about the strength of the Snow sect without any hesitation.
Jianchen could not help but gasp when he heard that. Although he knew that the Snow sect was very powerful, he had never expected them to be so powerful. They had two Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes.
In the past few years, Jian Chen had come into contact with many Grand Primes in the Saints' World, but most of them were early Grand Primes. There were not many mid Grand Primes, let alone Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes.
He deeply understood what a Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime represented. Every single one of them was a renowned figure in the Saints' World. Their deterrence was not limited to a single plane or planet. Even in the vast cosmos of the Saints' World, they possessed a place of their own.
However, what the Lan Ancestor said next chilled Jianchen's heart.
"The two Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes aren't the most terrifying aspect of the Snow sect. The most terrifying aspect of the Snow sect is one of the two Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, ancestor Bing Yun. Ten thousand years ago, ancestor Bing Yun of the Snow sect once fought against a Seventh Heavenly Layer Grand Prime. "
"Although Ancestor Bingyun was defeated in that battle, she was able to escape unscathed …"
"Just by relying on her own strength, Ancestor Bingyun is already able to contend against a Seventh Heavenly Layer expert …"
At the mention of Ancestral Master Bingyun, even with Ancestor Lan's cultivation, his expression was solemn.
Jianchen's heart sank. Ancestor Bing Yun was actually so powerful. Did that not mean that she could actually be regarded as a Seventh Heavenly Layer Grand Prime in the Snow sect?
The Seventh Heavenly Layer of Grand Prime was late Grand Prime. There was an extremely huge difference between this level of cultivation and the Sixth Heavenly Layer.
For a moment, Jianchen's heart became particularly heavy. The Snow sect possessed experts equivalent to Seventh Heavenly Layer Grand Primes. Without the Wind Venerable taking action, just who among the experts he knew had the ability to save them?
Without a doubt, the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng possessed this ability. However, he understood even more that the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng was already being righteous enough by not adding insult to injury under these circumstances. As for saving someone, that was even more impossible.
This was because the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng and the Snow Goddess of the Ice Goddess Hall were more like enemies.
Since they were enemies, why would she lend a hand?
"The main reason why ancestor Bing Yun is so powerful is because she was once chosen by the Ice Goddess Hall when she was still very weak. She served the Snow Goddess Hall for a period of time, but for some reason, she was expelled from the Ice Goddess Hall by the Snow Goddess Hall." Ancestor Lan sighed gently. She looked at Jianchen behind her and said, "Now that you know how powerful the Snow sect is, do you still want to save your friend?"
Even though Jianchen's face was stern, his determination did not waver at all. He nodded slowly and said sternly, "Yes, and I will do whatever it takes!"
Ancestor Lan smiled. Her smile was as beautiful as a painting in the sky. Even the most beautiful words in the world were far from enough to describe her stunning appearance at this moment.
She looked at Jianchen. Her gaze was filled with many emotions. There was surprise, admiration, and faint disdain.
"I really don't know where your confidence comes from. You're actually bold enough to save someone from the hands of a Grand Prime of the Snow sect with your measly strength that hasn't even reached Chaotic Prime." He had no idea whether the Lan Ancestor was praising him or mocking him, but what she said next shook Jian Chen's heart. It was like a tidal wave had surged within him.
"But I'm more curious about your relationship with the Snow Goddess."
Jianchen's eyes suddenly narrowed to the size of needles. His heart skipped a beat, and even his breathing became rather ragged.
Ancestor Lan's sudden question immediately surprised Jianchen, who was completely unprepared.
The light in Jianchen's eyes flickered. Even though he had been caught off guard, he was not surprised at all when he thought about it carefully. He had learned far too much about the Ice Goddess Hall from the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall, so he had given himself away long ago.
Jianchen sucked in a deep breath and calmed down very soon. He looked at Ancestor Lan and said, "She's my sister!"
This time, it was Ancestor Lan's turn to be surprised. Even though her face did not change much, ripples flickered through her eyes, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
Even though she had guessed that Jianchen was related to the Snow Goddess long ago, she had only thought of them as master and disciple, or as benefactors.
She had never thought that Jianchen's relationship with the Snow Goddess would actually be so close.
After all, the Snow Goddess was only second to Grand Exalts. Let alone on the Ice Pole Plane, even across the forty-nine great planes and eighty-one great planets of the Saints' World, the Snow Goddess was a figure who stood supreme. She was a great figure who could stir up a storm with just a stomp of her foot.
With that, Ancestor Lan fell silent instead. She did not show anything on the surface, but she was not calm inside.
The Snow Goddess' younger brother? The person standing before her was actually the Snow Goddess' younger brother?
This news was truly earth-shattering to any expert in the Ice Pole State.
Even though she knew that this so-called younger brother of hers had only appeared after the Snow Goddess had reincarnated, it was still shocking enough.
"The person the Snow Goddess sect took away was Shui Yunlan of the Ice Goddess Hall. Shui Yunlan is the only person who knows where my sister is. Now that she's in the hands of the Snow Goddess sect, their intentions are obvious. The Snow Goddess is in danger at all times."
"Ancestor Lan, since you already know the truth of the matter, I would like to know if your Sky Crane Clan will choose to stand by and watch, or will you lend a hand." Since he had already made himself clear, Jianchen no longer tried to hide anything. He directly asked about the Tianhe clan's stance.
