Chapter 3021: Internal Strife in the Snow Sect (1/2)
The determination that the Icecloud Founding Ancestor demonstrated immediately made the Icepeer Founding Ancestor’s heart sink. She had to communicate to the Icecloud Founding Ancestor, “Icecloud, it’s already very clear what is going on. The person behind Yu Yangxie is definitely the Flame Reverend. With what the Flame Reverend is capable of, he can achieve this with ease. Shui Yunlan has appeared now, but the Snow Goddess hasn’t truly recovered after all. Now is still not the time to offend the Flame Reverend.”
“Icecloud, just listen to me. Drop the matter here.”
The Icepeer Founding Ancestor was clearly being haunted by a guilty conscience. She did her best to convince the Icecloud Founding Ancestor to give up on interrogating any further.
However, while she was one of the two revered Sixth Heavenly Layer ancestors of the Snow sect, the difference in strength prevented her from forcefully interfering or forcefully stopping the Icecloud Founding Ancestor.
Ancestor Lan, He Qianchi, and Hun Zang all looked at Wu Han, as they understood the person that Wu Han was about to reveal could truly be regarded as important.
As for Yu Yangxie, he was only a chess piece at most.
The Rain Abbess was hazy. She had never shown herself properly on the Ice Pole Plane. However, even when they were approaching the truth, she still seemed completely uninterested.
The Icecloud Founding Ancestor’s Soul Stunning Bell hovered above Wu Han’s head and produced a clear jingle, stunning her soul and preventing Wu Han from resisting at all. Her mind was completely under control.
“It’s the Icepeer Founding Ancestor,” Wu Han said gently, finally confessing that it was the Icepeer Founding Ancestor.
However, the Icepeer Founding Ancestor was already well-prepared. Right when Wu Han said her name, she formed a seal, and wind and snow surged through the surroundings. The heavy snow shrouded the region, immediately hiding Wu Han, the Icecloud Founding Ancestor, and herself from view.
With that, not only did Hun Zang, ancestor Lan, and everyone else lose track of the three of them, even the Frigid River Ancestor, the Profound Sky Ancestor, and the many great elders of the Snow sect lost track of them.
Not only were they unable to see the three of them, but they even failed to hear Wu Han’s words towards the end.
In the hazy snow, the Icecloud Founding Ancestor’s face was extremely sunken. She turned around slowly as she gazed at the Icepeer Founding Ancestor with a pair of emotionless eyes. “Why? Tell me why. Don’t tell me you’ve already pledged yourself to the Flame Reverend?”
There was no guilt on the Icepeer Founding Ancestor’s face, only a deep sense of helplessness. She let out a gentle sigh. “Icecloud, our friendship goes back several million years in the Snow sect. Given how clever you are, you must have deduced that I was the person behind this all already through how protective I was of Yu Yangxie. Why? Why did you have to lay everything out in the open? Don’t tell me our friendship of several million years is so flimsy?”
“Icecloud, think about your past. You were also once a member of the Ice Goddess Hall. You also bent over backwards in order to serve the Ice Goddess and the Snow Goddess. Even if you did not achieve anything fantastic, it was still hard work, but what happened in the end? You were still expelled from of the Ice Goddess Hall mercilessly, even going through a century’s worth of painful torture.”
“The Ice and Snow Goddess treated you like that, so now that they’re in trouble, they basically had it coming. Why must you treat a good sister of yours whose relationship goes back several million years like this for the sake of a Snow Goddess that hasn’t even recovered yet?”
“Icecloud, the Snow sect is your home. It’s where you truly belong. Similarly, only I am your best sister in this world.”
