From the looks of it, this Rou Bingxue was not as cold as she appeared on the surface.

At least, when he had fainted, she had saved him and even returned the Peacock Flame. Clearly, they were trustworthy. Now that he made such a request on his own accord, Xiao Yu felt warm in his heart. He also believed that this woman was trustworthy!

After thinking about it, Xiao Yu walked over and approached Rou Bingxue.

Rou Bingxue said: ”Come closer, don't tell me I can still eat you?”

Xiao Yu had no choice but to get closer. Seated face to face with Rou Bingxue.

Rou Bingxue took out a map, and gave it to Xiao Yu: ”This map details the location of the Ice Lake. The surroundings of the Ice Lake was a forbidden area. Countless demon beasts were rampaging about. There was no lack of Saint-level demon beasts among them. However, this is not the most terrifying existence of the Ice Lake. ”

The more Xiao Yu heard, the more surprised he became. ”Could it be that there is an existence in the frozen lake that is even more terrifying than a Saint-level beast?”

Rou Bingxue replied: ”Mhm. There's a formation at the Ice Lake. This formation is the most powerful one. ”

Xiao Yu was curious: ”Formation?”

Rou Bingxue said as she nodded her head, ”When the Sacred Flame Kingdom was exterminated, three of the major flame seeds were taken by others. Two of them were in the royal family right now. Furthermore, the Nine Layers of Profound Ice Fire is the ancestor of our Ice Clan, Wan Bingzi. In the end, she was chased by the empire and was forced to enter the deepest part of the Thousand Mountain Snow Region's Ice Lake. Even so, she was still besieged by the experts of the Empire for three years. In the end, Wan Bing Zi exhausted all her energy and had to use the terrain of the mountains to burn her own life force to pry open the ice around the frozen lake. She then set up the Seven Cold Killing Array. The experts of the Empire were not allowed to enter, so they left in the end. It had lasted for nearly five thousand years. Although the power of the Seven Cold Killing Array was greatly weakened, it still couldn't be underestimated. ”Throughout the years, who knows how many people have attempted to charge into the frozen lake and seize the Nine Layers of Profound Ice Fire s. In the end, they all died in the Seven Cold Killing Array.”

Xiao Yu was filled with emotion, he never thought that the Ice Lake would have such an origin.

However, Xiao Yu immediately thought of a problem, ”Since this place is so dangerous, even you have been severely injured, why are you still letting me go?”

Rou Bingxue stared at Xiao Yu speechlessly, ”I am Wan Bingzi, so I am naturally immune to the Seven Cold Killing Array's attacks. I was ultimately injured by the Nine Layers of Profound Ice Fire itself! It's not this killing formation.

Xiao Yu felt his blood run cold.

With a wave of Rou Bingxue's right hand, a snow-white scepter suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Yu and slowly floated in the air.

The Scepter's entire body was snow-white, made up of seven snow-white vines twisted together. It was four feet long and there was an ape's head at the place where he touched it.

Rou Bingxue said: ”This is the Power of Ice and Snow Palm! It is the symbol of our greatest power. To wield the Power of Ice and Snow was like coming to this king. It could command all the members of the Ice Race. But Life and Death Palm! Back then, when Wan Bingzi's ancestor set up the Seven Cold Killing Array, he had used the power of the seven Icy Cane on it. You hold this ice scepter, the array will not attack you. You can directly enter the depths of the frozen lake and take away the Nine Layers of Profound Ice Fire! ”

Xiao Yu heaved a sigh of relief: ”This is a good thing. I like it. ”

Rou Bingxue gouged out Xiao Yu speechlessly, ”Once you have harvested the Nine Layers of Profound Ice Fire s, you must not directly swallow them, let alone directly melt and absorb them. You bring it back, and I will use the Nine Yin Body's physique along with your Peacock Flame's body to help you absorb it. If you try to forcibly absorb it, it will freeze to death in an instant! ”

Xiao Yu said: ”Thank you for being so concerned about me.”

Rou Bingxue said: ”Nonsense, I'm not concerned about you. I just don't want you to die in the Ice Lake. I was waiting for you to come back and help Ke Le’er retreat! ”

Xiao Yu stood up, and held onto the ice scepter tightly!

When he touched it, it felt like a vast and mighty power was continuously communicating with the world from a distance. The power of ice and snow in the surrounding area was all concentrated on the scepter.

Good stuff!

Xiao Yu was overjoyed, then he laughed: ”Hey, this Scepter looks like a good item, it is definitely a high quality treasure. You gave me such an important thing, are you not afraid that I would run away after taking the Profound Ice and Fire Seed? ”

Such courage.

Xiao Yu laughed: ”Don't be so nervous, I was just joking with you.”

Rou Bingxue waved her hand: ”Go quickly. Ke Le’er and the rest won't be able to resist anymore. ”

Xiao Yu held onto the scepter and walked forward with large strides. Halfway through, Xiao Yu suddenly stopped and looked back at Rou Bingxue: ”Hey, can I ask you something?”

Rou Bingxue said: ”Speak.”

Xiao Yu said: ”If I ask you, will you hit me?”

Rou Bingxue said: ”Why are you so mischievous? ”If you don't want to say it, then hurry up and say it. If not, then scram.”

Xiao Yu wiped the corner of his mouth, ”I feel that the corner of my mouth is sweet, did you secretly kiss me?”

”Bam!”

”Dig, why are you so fierce!” Xiao Yu was flung several metres away, rolling on the ground as he crawled up and ran. Although he was sent flying far, Xiao Yu knew that she did not use much strength, nor did she think of hurting him …

As Rou Bingxue watched Xiao Yu leave, the corner of his mouth suddenly curved into a curve. A faint smile!

After a long while, Rou Bingxue sat down on the ground once again and began to meditate. The energy of ice and snow around him began to circulate, becoming many times stronger than before!

”The journey from here to the Ice Lake is a full eight hundred miles. I need to speed up!” Xiao Yu waved his hand, and the Yan Que appeared. The golden Yan Que suddenly appeared and instantly grew in size, spreading out its gigantic wings. Xiao Yu stood on the Yan Que's back as it quickly flew through the snow region.
