Huo Qing was enraged by Luo Ping's words. He unleashed a powerful presence, regaining his previous domineering demeanor.
"Sometimes, you have to pay a price for speaking carelessly. The only way to keep a secret is to silence someone."
As Huo Qing spoke, he had already sealed off the surrounding space. He was prepared to deal with Luo Ping at any time.
Although the formation was still intact, the ice within it had been completely absorbed, so it would no longer attack them. She could attack without worry.
Luo Ping only smiled at Huo Qing's actions. He was not worried at all. Instead, he asked calmly, "If you don't want to expose yourself, you could have not asked me to enter the formation. However, you urged me to hurry up before. In other words, you're prepared to expose yourself."
"I believe that you won't kill me to silence me. Even if you have the ability to do so, you wouldn't do it because there's still one last formation that hasn't been destroyed."
"Aside from me, no one else can enter the lightning formation. As long as the formation isn't destroyed, you can forget about venturing deep into the Cavern of Slaughter. As a result, you were just trying to scare me earlier."
Luo Ping analysed the current situation. He believed that Huo Qing would not kill him to silence him. That would be an extremely unwise move.
"Looks like brother Tan is even more cunning than I imagined. You've actually seen through my thoughts. Your intelligence is no weaker than my senior brother Bi's."
"I believe that with brother Tan's intelligence, you won't offend the entire Slaughter Saint Palace because of my identity. Otherwise, you'll end up in a fate worse than death."
Huo Qing did not refute Luo Ping's judgement. At the same time, he believed that Luo Ping would not be foolish enough to reveal her identity.
"Of course. I don't want to offend your sect. However, there's always a price to pay for keeping a secret. You know that the path of cultivation can be dangerous at any time. If I'm about to die, it's extremely likely that I'll reveal this secret."
"Sigh, but you can bribe me. I'm very easy to bribe. As long as you casually take out some heavenly treasures, I guarantee that your identity won't be exposed."
Luo Ping didn't take Huo Qing's threat to heart at all. Instead, he made a request and prepared to extort the other party once again.
Hearing Luo Ping's words, Huo Qing was clearly surprised. However, after pondering for a moment, he actually took out a storage pouch and tossed it to Luo Ping.
"The items inside will definitely satisfy you. Although you are a little cunning, treacherous, shameless, and thick-skinned, I believe that since you have made a promise, you will definitely not reveal my identity."
"After so many years, you are the first outsider to see me in my female form. Perhaps this is the arrangement of fate. I can't hide it forever."
Huo Qing both belittled and praised Luo Ping, then his tone became gloomy.
Luo Ping opened the storage pouch and scanned it. A satisfied expression appeared on his face. Hearing Huo Qing's tone, he was somewhat puzzled and asked, "With your background, why do you want to hide your female form? As the daughter of the leader of a first-class sect, are you afraid that someone will plot against you and covet your beauty? "
Luo Ping was just casually teasing. He naturally didn't think that the other party was hiding his identity for this reason. There must be something fishy about it.
"You want to know?"
Huo Qing suddenly smiled and asked.
"You'll tell me so easily?"
Luo Ping asked back.
"It's not that I can't tell you, but you have to agree to one of my requests."
Huo Qing said again.
"Request? What request? "
Luo Ping was somewhat puzzled. What kind of request could be exchanged for the other party to reveal the secret that had been hidden for many years?
"It's very simple. You have to help me obtain the most important inheritance left behind by the founder of my sect."
Huo Qing said in a firm tone, as if he was determined to obtain the most important inheritance.
Luo Ping pondered for a moment, then said, "As long as you have a way to obtain the inheritance, I can help you resist your two senior brothers. As for the others, you have to deal with them yourself."
"I believe that you have already negotiated with Gu Dingyu and the others. They will definitely help you with all their strength. How about it? Are you satisfied with this answer?"
After Luo Ping finished speaking, he looked at the other party with a smile. Huo Qing shook his head helplessly and said, "It seems that you are very clear about everything. Yes, I have negotiated with Brother Gu and the others. You are the only one left."
"I haven't thought of a good exchange condition. I didn't expect it to appear now. I am relieved that you can resist my two senior brothers. Let's make a deal."
Huo Qing said, his face became heavy again, as if he was recalling the past.
"My real name is Huo Qing Lian. I was born with the 'Pure Ice Jade Body'. This kind of body is extremely rare. In addition to the Ice Attribute Body, my body is pure and flawless. There is no trace of impurities. I can cultivate directly without the need to sever my hair and cleanse my marrow. Moreover, my cultivation speed is much faster than ordinary people."
"These characteristics caused the Purity of Ice Jade Body to be the subject of envy and attention of all cultivators. However, what attracted the most attention was actually the last point, which was also the most important point."
"Rumor has it that if one were to obtain a woman with a Pure Ice Jade Body and s-dual cultivate with her, not only would one be able to increase the speed and efficiency of one's cultivation, one would also be able to completely transfer the woman's cultivation to oneself."
"In other words, if you have such a cultivation furnace, you can increase your cultivation speed by several times. This is a huge temptation for every cultivator."
"Although I don't know if the rumors are true or false, after all, the Pure Ice Jade Body is very rare. However, my father was still worried about my safety. Therefore, after I was born, he always lied that I had a congenital hidden disease and hid me in a secret place to cultivate."
"Later, my father secretly looked through the ancient books and searched for secret techniques. Finally, he found a way to completely hide my female body and aura. Only then did I appear in front of people with the identity of a man."
"Because my cultivation speed was faster than ordinary people, I quickly became one of the best in the sect. In the entire Demons sect space, I also had a little reputation. Even so, I still didn't dare to show my real identity to people."
"My father told me that when I have enough strength to protect myself, or when I meet someone who has the strength to protect me and doesn't covet my Pure Ice Jade Body, then I can reveal my identity."
When Huo Qing said this, his eyes flashed as he looked at Luo Ping opposite him. He found that Luo Ping's expression was calm and there was no change in his expression. He couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
"Now that you have revealed your identity, it should mean that you have enough strength to protect yourself. That's about right. With your current strength, even experts of the Longevity Stage will find it difficult to deal with you."
"Now that you are about to receive the powerful inheritance of your sect, your strength will certainly advance by leaps and bounds. I'm afraid that even old monsters of the Dongxu Stage will find it difficult to deal with you."
"Coupled with your father's protection, it will be very difficult for anyone to threaten your safety. However, looking at your situation just now, it seems that you didn't reveal your identity on your own initiative. It seems that you were passive? What's going on? "
In Luo Ping's view, since Huo Qing had revealed his identity, he must have the strength to protect himself. However, he was a little puzzled by the situation when Huo Qing revealed his identity just now.
"You're right. I was passive in revealing my identity. Although I used a secret technique to hide my body and aura, once I used the Ice Natal Cultivation Method, the energy of the Pure Ice Jade Body would be stimulated, and I would be restored to a woman's body in a short time."
"Just now, at a very dangerous moment, I had to use the Ice Soul Magic Skill to resist the Ten Thousand Strands of Ghost Ice's' tendons' attack. It was because of this that my identity was exposed."
"In fact, before entering the Talisman, I thought about the possibility of my identity being exposed. After all, the Talisman is so dangerous, and only the Natal Cultivation Method can maximize my combat strength."
"Even so, I was still willing to enter the Talisman with you. Do you know why?"
Huo Qing explained the situation and then asked Luo Ping a question. Luo Ping thought for a moment and shook his head with a strange smile.
"Why? Could it be that you're drooling over my 'beauty' and have taken a fancy to me? "
Luo Ping teased.
"Do you really think so? Haha, that's possible. Also, from your previous behavior, I can feel that you're a trustworthy person. "
"Especially in the bamboo forest painting, when you were facing a difficult situation, the fearlessness you showed and the determination to fight with me to the end deeply touched my heartstrings."
"Such a loyal person, I believe that even if you know my true identity, you won't reveal it. As for the conditions you offered, it's completely within my expectations."
"The conditions you offered are an agreement for both of us. If you don't offer, I'll be a little worried."
Huo Qing accepted Luo Ping's teasing. In addition, it was because of Luo Ping's loyalty that he dared to reveal his identity.
After listening to Huo Qing's words, Luo Ping finally understood the cause and effect. It was only at this time that he truly understood the woman in front of him.
"It seems that you're also extraordinarily intelligent. You've guessed most of my thoughts. Since we've laid things out clearly, let's not delay and continue to break the Talisman."
Luo Ping also praised Huo Qing and then reminded him to continue breaking the Talisman.
Although they had absorbed all the Ghost Ice, the Talisman was not broken. Moreover, this was only the first Talisman. There was still another Talisman that needed to be broken.
"Oh? Could it be that after knowing that I'm a woman, you feel uncomfortable being with me? "
