Behind her was the Ice Palace Sacred Hall covered in snow.
Bai Wuya walked out from the ice palace, walked to her side, and said respectfully, "Mother, the wedding banquet is over, the guests have all left. Those who didn't stay have all been sent away."
Granny Snow grunted. "It's been a long time since it's been this lively." She then fell silent again.
Bai Wuya, who was standing behind her, seemed to want to say something but hesitated, as if there was something that was difficult to say.
Noticing that he was still by her side, Granny Snow took the initiative to ask, "What's the matter?"
In the end, Bai Wuya still tried to speak, "Mother, do you think it's appropriate for Luo'er to marry Chuan Ying?"
Granny Xue chuckled. "Are you still upset that I didn't let Luo 'er marry your disciple? Wuya, I don't like it when you brothers and sisters form cliques. The desires of humans are very scary. As a demon, I have already experienced it. People always want more after they get it. I don't want to hurt you. I raised all of you, and I'm doing this for your own good. Do you understand? "
Bai Wuya hurriedly said, "Mother, that's not what I meant. I just feel that … there's something wrong with this Chuan Ying."
Granny Snow asked, "Did you find anything?"
Bai Wuya: "Luo 'er falling in love with a man at first sight, isn't that too much of a coincidence? Mother, don't you think there's a problem?"
Granny Snow said, "Anything abnormal could be a problem."
Bai Wuya didn't understand. "So Mother knows better than anyone else. Then why did you agree to Luo Er marrying Chuan Ying?"
Granny Snow said, "Then what do you think I should do? That lass Luo 'er wants to die and wants to get married. She's pregnant too. Do you want me to kill her? "
Bai Wuya: "At the very least, we can think of a way to stop them."
Granny Snow said, "Before we find out the truth, we can't find any evidence to convince her. If we try to stop her, she'll hate me for the rest of her life. Hating me is secondary. What would you guys think if you're trapped by love and can't think straight? What would you think if you really do something that kills both of us? Don't you think I'm too heartless as a mother? Do you feel that demons are indeed heartless? "
Bai Wuya: "Mother, you think too much. We're stopping her for her own good. If anything happens, it'll be too late for regrets. Besides, everyone is actually quite against this marriage. "
Granny Xue turned around slowly with the help of her walking stick. She looked at him and said, "Since we can't convince her, we'll let the truth do the talking. I've lived for so long, and I only know one thing. Time will tell everything. Since we can't find any problems … one Chuan Ying wouldn't be able to stir up any waves, and one Chuan Ying wouldn't dare to act recklessly either. If there is really a problem, it means that there must be someone meticulously plotting behind him. That's why we can't find anything. Whatever the mastermind wants to do, there must be a motive, right? "
She raised her hand and brushed off the snowflakes that had landed on Bai Wuya's shoulder. "Since we can't find anything, let him continue acting. If we don't let him continue acting, how will we know what he wants to do? Only by letting him continue acting will he reveal the fox's tail. If we don't catch the fox's tail, how will we know the truth? Do you understand? "
Bai Wuya came to a realization and nodded his head. Then, he said in a low voice, "But in this way, if there really is a problem in the end, Luo'er will find it hard to accept."
"Sigh!" Granny Xue let out a soft sigh. She walked past Bai Wuya with the help of her walking stick and slowly walked into the Ice Palace. With her back facing Bai Wuya, she said in an aged voice, "We can't persuade her anymore. She has already fallen into the net of love. We can't persuade her anymore! Hopefully, we are just overthinking. Otherwise, she will choose her own path. She will have to taste it herself. You guys were so good when you were young. You guys were so obedient. At least, you guys had no choice but to listen to orders. Now that you guys have grown up, each of you has your own way of thinking. Each of you has your own opinions. Each of you has your own methods. Can any of you be persuaded? It's useless no matter what I say. None of you will listen. In the end, I, this old witch, will be the bad guy. I can only give you some advice. You can choose for yourselves how you want to go! "
Bai Wuya remained silent as he watched the hunchbacked figure disappear into the depths of the Ice Palace.
A Grey-winged Eagle flew across the ground. Two people jumped down from it and rode the Grey-winged Eagle into the depths of the vast night sky.
Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie looked at each other speechlessly when they landed. They had been left behind. They had just left the Ice Region, and they had been left behind by Elder Niu again.
Although they were used to it, they were still left speechless by the fact that Elder Niu had left them behind twice. They felt that Elder Niu was a bit "mysterious". Elder Niu was always running around mysteriously in the vast Saint Region. What was he doing? What could he do? Wasn't he tired?
In fact, Niu Youdao didn't want to run around. If he had to run around alone, he would have to exhaust his mental and physical energy to plan and personally run around to manage the situation. It was really tiring, but he had no other choice.
He didn't have enough reliable people around him. In the current situation, he had to do some running around by himself. He couldn't rely on people he trusted. There were some things that couldn't be done by others. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to bear the risk.
Moreover, there were some things that could only be done by himself. It was useless for others to do it.
Looking at the black dot that had already disappeared in the starry night sky, Qin Guan sighed and said, "What is Elder doing?"
Ke Dingjie also sighed and said, "I can see it now. The purpose of the three reports when we just arrived at the Heaven Seeking City was to make it easier for Elder to travel around."
Qin Guan said, "It's not just to make it easier for him to travel around. Those three reports came one after another. It was obvious that they had planned it in advance. When he said that one report after another, there must be a reason behind it. I didn't quite understand it at first. After a long time, I gradually understood. Let's not talk about the first two reports. Without the first two reports, we wouldn't have been able to ask the Holy Venerate for the convenience of traveling around. "
"The seven sects are starting to make a ruckus. The Misty Pavilion is no longer keeping an eye on us. Elder is making use of the convenience of traveling around. Think about what happened in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. There are too many strange things. In the end, Ao Feng actually came out to testify for Elder. Our Purple Golden Cave's Elder is really far-sighted. He's not an ordinary person. We can't even catch up to him. We can't even figure out what he wants to do. No wonder Shang Chaozong could rise so quickly with his support. I'm worried now … "
Noticing his pause, Ke Dingjie asked, "Worried about what?"
Qin Guan said in a low voice, "He's definitely hiding something from us. Think about it. He didn't even hide from us when he killed the people of the Misty Pavilion. Now, he's hiding from us. It can only mean that what he's planning is more serious than killing the people of the Misty Pavilion. I just hope that he doesn't do anything that we can't handle. "
Ke Dingjie's face twitched. "Why do I feel so nervous after hearing what you said?"
Qin Guan looked around. "Let's go. Elder won't reveal anything. It's useless for us to worry about it. Let's do as he said. Let's find a place to hide first."
After a brief discussion, the two of them found a secluded place to hide so that Niu Youdao could turn around and find them.
...
"Who's there?" Xiang Ming, the manager of Star picking City, suddenly shouted.
A group of people came from the Land of Ice and were about to escort Sha Huanli back to Star picking City. Suddenly, they saw a black shadow rushing towards them from the sky. Xiang Ming shouted and also warned the people below to be vigilant.
The people on the three large flying beasts were immediately on high alert.
As the black shadow approached, they saw its face clearly. It was Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao had already steered the flying beast to change its direction to avoid a direct collision. He said in surprise, "Manager Xiang … City Lord Sha, why are you here?"
Sha Huanli was also very surprised. She didn't expect to meet Niu Youdao on the way here.
She didn't think much of it, but Xiang Ming was very vigilant. He asked, "Why did you collide with us?"
Niu Youdao quickly waved his hand. "It's a misunderstanding. I was just heading in that direction. I didn't expect to meet you."
Xiang Ming said sternly, "Why are you wandering around the Sage Region alone?"
Niu Youdao said, "Manager Xiang, you've misunderstood. I'm not wandering around the Sage Region. I really have something to do."
Xiang Ming said, "Something? You're not heading towards Heaven Seeking City! "
Niu Youdao said, "I'm not going back to Heaven Seeking City. I'm going to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. Manager Xiang, look again. It's the direction to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. "He gestured in the direction he was heading towards.
Xiang Ming pondered about the direction and the terrain of the Sage Region. He realized that he was indeed heading towards the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. He immediately asked, "Why are you heading to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland?"
Niu Youdao said, "I'm working for the Demon Fox Bureau. The Demon Fox Bureau is in charge of the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. I was originally going to return to Heaven Seeking City, but the Demon Fox Division suddenly sent me a message saying that they found a treasure in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. When I heard the news, I immediately changed my route and prepared to take a look. I really didn't expect to meet City Lord here. "
Great treasure? The people from Star picking City looked at each other. Sha Huanli's eyes flickered. She was clearly curious about what the people from Misty Pavilion said was a great treasure.
Xiang Ming, who was stunned, couldn't help but ask, "Great treasure? The Desolate Swamp Wasteland is a place occupied by a bunch of Demon Foxes. What great treasure could there be? "
Niu Youdao said, "Shang Song's temporary residence! The Demon Fox Bureau's men found the temporary residence left behind by the Wu Dynasty's founding emperor, Shang Song, in the Sage Region when they were cleaning up the Demon Foxes. They have already reported the news to their superiors. I believe everyone will receive the news very soon. "
"Shang Song's temporary residence?" The people from Star picking City were shocked. Some even exclaimed.
Niu Youdao nodded. "Yes. The Demon Fox Bureau's message said that Shang Song's temporary residence is extremely beautiful. It's like a fantasy wonderland. I was in a hurry to see it. That's why I misunderstood and offended you. It wasn't intentional. I hope City Lord can forgive me."
A fantastical, magnificent, dreamy wonderland? Sha Huanli's eyes flickered.
She wasn't the only one. The people from Star picking City seemed to be tempted as well. Sha Huanli rarely came to the Sage Region. If she missed this opportunity, she didn't know when she would come back again. She didn't even know when she would have the chance to see it again.
Xiang Ming was shocked. "There's actually a temporary residence left behind by Shang Song in the Sage Region? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Niu Youdao noticed Sha Huanli's reaction. He smiled bitterly and replied, "Manager Xiang, you're making things difficult for me. How would I know? However, I don't think Misty Pavilion would lie about this. Otherwise, who would bear the responsibility? "
After saying that, he made a weak hand gesture. If you're willing to forgive me, I'll take my leave first.
