Chapter 26: Of Master's and Their Filial Disciples (1)
Bai Lian felt that she shouldn't agree right away.
It gives people the impression that she is gullible and easily fooled.
This is not consistent with her established character.
Take it slow for now.
For example, you could say, "That's a good proposal, I'll definitely consider it."
The Snow Spirit Lord became worried as soon as she said this.
"You only have half an hour to consider!"
She resembled a white cat whose tail had been bitten and appeared to be on the brink of jumping up to scratch Bai Lian's chest.
Huh?
Bai Lian was taken aback.
What's the rush with her?
Without proper preparation, making progress becomes challenging and may ultimately result in failure. Don't you think so?
"Is it possible that there is a time limit for finding the Ancient Starry Sky Road?" Bai Lian wondered.
"That's none of your concern!"
The Snow Spirit Lord's tone was less courteous.
When Bai Lian caught her gaze, she averted her eyes and glanced out the window.
After a moment of silence, the Snow Spirit Lord spoke up, "Fairy Bai Lian, the Immortal Spirit Qi is not something that can be easily found. Moreover, I happen to possess a top-grade Immortal Spirit Stone. Missing this opportunity may not be easily remedied."
Bai Lian smiled and nodded in agreement.
She noticed a sudden white mist emanating from the Snow Spirit Lord's nose.
It had an urgent and fierce quality to it.
It would be very appropriate to use one word to describe the Snow Spirit Lord's mood now--
Hmph!
Bai Lian crossed her arms and lifted her chin gently.
Although she appeared to be lost in thought, she was actually gazing at the Snow Spirit Lord's profile.
The Snow Spirit Lord slid her hands into her billowing sleeves at that moment.
Take a closer look.
Despite the ice-white veil covering her face, Bai Lian still found her very beautiful (though of course, the Snow Spirit Lord paled in comparison in her own eyes).
This type of beauty exudes an aura of detachment.
From her attire to her beauty, the Snow Spirit Lord is undeniably a young woman.
However, her tone of voice revealed a very girlish persona.
Young mother?
That's not exactly correct.
Time flew by as Bai Lian's imagination took over.
The Snow Spirit Lord adjusted her posture from time to time, like a needle growing on a stool.
Bai Lian even started to doubt if she had a special switch on her hand.
This way, sooner or later the Snow Spirit Lord would get angry and "eat" her!
So, Bai Lian decided to move.
As she placed her right hand on the table, it made a loud noise.
The Snow Spirit Lord swiftly turned her body, as if responding to a command from her master.
Bai agreed to cooperate, speaking slowly.
A smile lit up the Snow Spirit Lord's eyes as she clenched her fist tightly inside her sleeve.
Like a kid who got candy.
Bai Lian pondered.
She reiterated, "But…"
The Snow Spirit Lord furrowed their brows slightly.
"Before cooperating, I have a question to ask you."
"What's the problem?"
"Why do I have to take part when Ji Shi alone is enough, considering that he's also the reincarnation of an Immortal?" Bai Lian asked.
The Snow Spirit Lord explained, "Fairy Bai Lian, you were a powerful Star Lord in your past life. With your help, we'll have a better chance of finding our way out smoothly."
Way out?
The Ancient Starry Sky Road?
By the way, the Snow Spirit Lord has lived in the Snow Sea for many years.
Her lifespan isn't running out, is it? Is she going to the Immortal World to extend her lifespan?
The Snow Spirit Lord will be disappointed to know that Bai Lian isn't the reincarnation of any Immortal.
Bai Lian nodded and asked, "What do I need to do now?"
"Fairy Bai Lian, you don't need to do anything for now. I'll call you when necessary," said the Snow Spirit Lord.
"That's great!"
Bai Lian leaned back on the bamboo chair.
She picked up the book from the table again.
Bai Lian remained silent while the Snow Spirit Lord closed her eyes to rest.
The night was eerily quiet.
Snow balls piled on bamboo branches would occasionally fall to the ground and create a clattering sound.
As there were no birds around, the clattering sound naturally failed to startle any birds into flying away.
In the bitterly cold Snow Sea, a pile of snow on the ground suddenly sprang to life.
Just like a startled rabbit leaping up.
An Lan emerged from beneath the snow as it was pushed away.
Finding Bai Lian would not have been so easy for her.
She was wandering outside the Wuheng Snow Valley, contemplating how to find Bai Lian when the Lord of Hades Hall and his men appeared.
To avoid revealing her existence, she disguised herself as a snowman with only half of her body visible.
The Lord of Hades Hall engaged in a fight with a tall "gorilla" outside of Wuheng Snow Valley.
At that moment, An Lan noticed that a woman had discreetly left the battlefield.
She followed with curiosity.
She traveled through mountains and valleys, eventually arriving at a dense bamboo forest.
A triple magic array was set up outside the bamboo forest.
Very thick.
Extremely powerful.
An Lan spent a long time quietly avoiding the magic array's monitoring.
During this process, she nearly fell to the ground.
It was extremely dangerous.
But the effort paid off as she finally found Bai Lian!
An Lan's mood could be described as: ?=??(((??????)?
But she resisted the urge to rush out: _ (° ? °??)_
Crawl forward.
To avoid exposing herself, An Lan closed her Divine Sense.
After selecting a hiding place, she promptly perked up her ears and began to eavesdrop.
After discovering that Bai Lian had come to acquire the Immortal Spirit Stone, An Lan didn't find herself smiling.
"It seems that Bai Lian is safe for now."
An Lan thought so.
Shortly after, the conversation in the bamboo room came to a close.
Pata pata.
An Lan made a concerted effort to brush off the snow.
After everything, she laid face down on the snow, reoriented herself, and fixed her piercing gaze on the bamboo house nestled deep within the bamboo forest.
Great!
You can barely see the window from here.
An Lan nodded in approval/contentment.
Keep a close eye on it!
She stared!
Keep looking!
The first thing that caught An Lan's eye was the back of the Snow Spirit Lord - long black hair dominating her field of vision.
"How dare she block me from checking if Bai Lian is injured!"
Gritting her teeth, An Lan was tempted to charge towards the Snow Spirit Lord and show her the true power of the "Heavenly Lord's wrath."
But she endured.
Her self-control is very high as an adult.
She should be recuperating at the Qiongming Peak now. If she rushes out recklessly, it's like saying to Bai Lian, "Your master is foolish and has lied to you!"
That is not going to work.
If that's the case, then I won't be able to maintain my dignity in front of Bai Lian!
Luckily, the Snow Spirit Lord sat down briefly before getting up to gaze at the moon, which allowed her to move out of An Lan's sight, giving An Lan the opportunity to catch a glimpse of Bai Lian.
