”I don't know, but I know what I mean. Trust me!”
These short six words startled Xin Cang Qu yet again.
If you know what I mean, then believe what I say!
Her intention was to protect herself? Did her heart believe in herself?
If he was really a man, he would probably be moved … Xin Cang Qu looked at Su Jiu who was extremely serious and determined. A person that he had just met actually treated him with such true love! Could it be that it was as they said, that he was a demon that enchanted the world?
”Then I'll thank Sister Su for your good intentions!” He withdrew his thoughts and said with a faint smile.
… ….
Yue Niang gently threw down a silver muslin over the deep valley that was covered in ice, as if she wanted to melt that valley's ice.
No! It should not be called the ice of a valley, but a deep valley formed from the ice of a raging fire!
This was the coldest place in the world — the Valley of Ice. It was also the most magical existence.
It was rumored that this Valley of Ice was a place even colder than the extreme ice and snow. Even the three or nine cold winters were nothing out of the ordinary, and at the same time, it was a place that humans could not reach.
What was even more strange was that not only was the ice from the Valley of Ice the coldest thing in the world, it was also like a boulder that couldn't melt due to the fire. Therefore, regardless of when it was Spring, Summer, Autumn, or Winter, this Valley of Ice was always like this. Even if it was three times a day and the sun was scorching hot, it was still unable to melt the ice here.
It was said that the water of this cold current originated from the eyes of the East Sea, so even though it was liquid, it was as cold as the ice within the valley. There were some ancestors who tried to mix the water from other places into this water, but the water turned into ice in the end.
In the tranquil night, a figure suddenly flashed by. That figure rapidly crossed the mountain ranges and mountains without any hindrances. Very quickly, it approached the cold stream, but suddenly stopped.
That person was a handsome man in his early twenties. He looked at the sparkling ice valley entrance, clasped his hands, and said loudly, ”I, Shi Donglu, greet Your Highness!”
”What's going on outside?”
The calm voice seemed to contain an evil aura and a kind of chilliness that came from within. Although it came from the Valley of Ice, it seemed to come from all directions, and even the echoes seemed to come from all directions. From this, it could be seen that the person who spoke had reached the acme of perfection.
”Your Highness, the outside world is still the same as before!” Shi Dong Du replied respectfully.
”Still the same?” That voice sounded once again, as if it was muttering to himself, ”It can actually be so calm, this is truly beyond This King's expectations … Right, is there any news about that person? ”
”Your Highness, not yet!” Shi Dongdu's voice was clearly weaker than before, and even though they had been searching for that person for five years, they still did not have a clue, and that person seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
”Forget it, let them continue to pay attention. Since that person was able to take the Phoenix Pendant from this king, then he must have the ability to leave no traces behind!” The people in the valley calmly gave their instructions.
”Yes sir!” Shi Dongdu answered and asked again, ”Your Highness, tomorrow is the day of Miss Lu's Groom Search Competition. Are you leaving the valley?”
