#472 - Whose child is this?
Jun Wuxie stood before the Mother of Ice Souls, examining this astonishing treasure of heaven and earth.
Mu Yunxi stood beside him, a trace of fervent light in her clear, cold eyes.
This Mother of Ice Souls was enough to raise the strength of all the elders and true disciples of her sect by a level!
Jun Wuxie placed his hand on the ice, the biting cold causing a sharp pain in his hand bones.
The cold air permeated through his palm into his limbs and bones, making his entire body feel as if it were about to freeze.
He immediately used the Solar Divine Flame to resist, and the biting cold gradually weakened.
In the end, he could not feel the slightest bit of cold.
The acquired Origin Qi of Ice was suppressed to death by the innate Divine Flame.
He pushed it.
The Ice Soul did not move an inch.
Half of it was embedded in the Xuan Ice of the ground.
"How is it? Are you confident in taking it out?"
Mu Yunxi looked at him expectantly.
Jun Wuxie looked at her eager eyes and couldn't help but think, even if it is taken out, it is impossible to just give it to you.
The value of this Mother of Ice Souls is immeasurable.
Just give it to the Ice Cloud Tower?
That is impossible.
At most, he would extract a little Origin of Ice for Mu Yunxi, which would be the limit of his benevolence.
If the Ice Cloud Tower knew about him and Mu Xuelan in the future, given the cultivation path that the Ice Cloud Tower adheres to, who knows how furious they would become.
If he generously gave the Mother of Ice Souls to Mu Yunxi, would the Ice Cloud Tower be grateful for his kindness in the future?
It is estimated that when the matter between him and Mu Xuelan is exposed, the Ice Cloud Tower would only think that obtaining the Mother of Ice Souls was because of Mu Yunxi.
Therefore, he had to keep the Mother of Ice Souls for himself, which might be of great use in the future!
"Stand back a little."
Jun Wuxie reminded her. After Mu Yunxi retreated, Solar Divine Flame spewed out from his palm, quickly melting the Xuan Ice around the Mother of Ice Souls.
Then, he reached out and sucked, and the huge Mother of Ice Souls rose into the air.
"The flame you released just now was the Solar Divine Flame?"
Mu Yunxi was excited and shocked at the same time when she saw him take out the Mother of Ice Souls.
That flame was too pure, and it seemed to have a trace of innate aura!
She couldn't believe that this man actually possessed an innate Divine Flame?
Jun Wuxie nodded.
In fact, his Solar Divine Flame had already evolved to the level of Second Sun Divine Flame, and was almost reaching the Third Sun Divine Flame.
"Let's go out first."
Jun Wuxie wrapped the Mother of Ice Souls with his blood energy and left the ice cave.
They quickly returned to the island.
Mu Yunxi's beautiful eyes stared at the Mother of Ice Souls without blinking.
Her Ice Snow Ancient God Bloodline needed such a source of ice to be further activated.
Moreover, the main power she cultivated was also Ice True Qi.
This Mother of Ice Souls could not only improve her talent growth intensity, but also allow her to quickly break through realms.
Jun Wuxie reached out and absorbed about one percent of the Origin Qi from the Mother of Ice Souls.
One percent was still a large mass.
He gave it to Mu Yunxi.
Mu Yunxi held the Origin of Ice and looked at him gratefully.
She knew very well that if it weren't for the man in front of her, she would have lost her life, let alone have these opportunities.
It could be said that everything she possessed now was given to her by this man.
Naturally, it was impossible for her to shamelessly ask for Origin Qi for other people in the sect.
Jun Wuxie put the Mother of Ice Souls, which was one meter in diameter, into the Eternal Divine Palace.
......
At the same time, in the outside world, Ice Cloud Tower of the Northern Plains.
This was a mountain peak of extremely high level in the Ice Cloud Tower. Normally, let alone disciples, even elders could not easily set foot here.
There was a cave dwelling on the mountain peak, all carved from ice.
The four guardians of Heaven, Earth, Universe, and Cosmos stood side by side in front of the cave dwelling, looking at the closed ice door, their faces filled with solemnity.
"Xuelan, are you really in seclusion?"
"We clearly sensed that your aura fluctuations are abnormal. This is not the state of mind you should have when cultivating the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】."
"You have been avoiding us for so long, it is time to come out and explain clearly."
"Rest assured, if it is not a mistake you actively committed, we will definitely not blame you."
......
The cave dwelling was silent, but the aura fluctuations were even stronger.
The four guardians frowned slightly, their faces showing a hint of anger.
"Xuelan, you need to inform us of anything. Avoiding it will not solve any problems, it will only make you more painful."
"If you don't come out again, we will forcibly enter!"
After the four finished speaking, just as they were about to take action, the ice door rumbled open.
"I have broken through."
Mu Xuelan, dressed in a sky-blue silk dress, walked out slowly.
Her face was indifferent, and her aura fluctuations were becoming more and more intense.
Under the shocked expressions of the four guardians, she stepped onto the high sky and instantly went away.
In an instant.
On the distant sky, dark clouds were densely covered, and the tribulation clouds were heavy.
Thick tribulation lightning struck down with a crack, submerging Mu Xuelan.
"It seems we have wronged her!"
"She has really broken through, and she seems to have awakened the Ancient God Bloodline of the founder…"
"That's right, that kind of aura is indeed the Ice Snow Ancient God Bloodline, almost exactly the same as Yunxi's bloodline aura!"
"Her talent growth intensity seems to have advanced to the late stage of the Ancient King!"
"I hope she can successfully pass the heavenly tribulation…"
......
The four guardians were shocked and trembled with excitement.
In this way, their Ice Cloud Tower had two Ice Snow Ancient God Bloodlines!
However, they were also a little worried in their hearts.
The heavenly tribulation has always been ruthless. Generally speaking, the stronger the bloodline, the more terrifying the power of the heavenly tribulation, and the greater the probability of failing the tribulation!
They watched nervously.
Watching the tribulation lightning wave after wave, the ruthless lightning, as if to devour all living beings, smashed dozens of mountains into flat ground.
The heavenly tribulation descended three waves of thunder tribulations, lasting for a whole half day, and finally stopped completely.
As the tribulation clouds dispersed, they saw snowflakes falling all over the sky.
Mu Xuelan stood in the middle of the snowflakes, like a goddess walking out of the ice and snow world.
"Good! Good!"
Guardian Tianyu had a few tears in her eyes.
Heaven favors Ice Cloud Tower.
As long as another hundred years passed, they believed that with Mu Xuelan's talent, it was very likely that she would step into the Half-Saint realm!
At this time, Mu Xuelan returned to them in the flying snow.
Her entire temperament had undergone some changes.
Those ice-snow-like eyes were even more clear and transparent, but there was a trace of emotion that had never been there before.
"Great, Xuelan, you have finally awakened the Ice Snow Ancient God Bloodline…"
Guardian Tianyu grabbed her hand excitedly, wanting to pry into the power in her body.
Her face suddenly froze, the smile on her face instantly solidified, and her eyes showed horror.
"You… you…"
Her voice trembled, as if she had seen something terrible.
"I'm pregnant."
Mu Xuelan's voice was very calm, her eyes, although clear and cold, radiated a trace of maternal brilliance.
The child in her belly had been there for several months.
During her seclusion, she sealed him in her body with True Qi, causing him to temporarily stop growing.
She knew that now was definitely not a good time for the child to grow.
There were too many difficulties in front of her.
The Great Era did not allow it, and the sect did not allow it.
Even, she was not clear about what that man would think about this.
Perhaps, that man had simply forgotten her.
Would he care?
She often thought of the scene she saw in the Taolin of Zongwang Mountain that day.
That man was dating Yan Qingcheng, they were very close, even closer than she, the mother of the child, was to him.
She also didn't know what kind of feelings she had for that man.
The only thing she was sure of was that she had to protect this child!
Every time she stroked her abdomen, feeling his tenacious vitality, her heart would melt.
That was a feeling she had never had before, that feeling of life being closely connected, it was so strong.
"What did you say?"
Apart from Tianyu, the other three guardians were shocked beyond belief, and their bodies began to tremble.
"What exactly is going on, Xuelan!"
"Whose child is it?!"
"A member of my Ice Cloud Tower is pregnant, the first time since the founding of the sect, let alone the Lord of the sect!"
"A great shame, truly a great shame for my Ice Cloud Tower!"
"Don't ask any more questions." Mu Xuelan shook her head calmly and said firmly: "I want to give birth to the child."
"Are you crazy?!"
"Do you know what you are saying?"
"This child must not be kept!"
"Xuelan! Will you do it yourself or will we do it? Today, the孽种 in your belly must be removed!"
The four guardians' faces were extremely gloomy.
They couldn't believe their ears.
Not only did Mu Xuelan not say whose child it was, but she also claimed that she wanted to give birth to the child!
If that were really the case, when the child was born, the Ice Cloud Tower would become a laughing stock in the world!
The world would say that the Ice Cloud Tower pretends to be holy in front of people, but its Lord secretly had illicit relations with others, how terrible those words would be!
"I said, I want to give birth to the child, no one is allowed to hurt him!" Mu Xuelan looked at them firmly and resolutely, and said: "If you dare to kill my child, I will immediately disperse my soul and die in front of you!"
"You!"
Guardian Tianyu pointed at her, her fingers trembling, her eyes angry and cold.
"Tell me, is the child Jun Wuxie's?"
Ganyu suddenly thought of her performance on the day of the decisive battle in the capital and asked in a trembling voice.
Hearing that man's name, Mu Xuelan's heart trembled slightly, but she remained silent.
"Xue Lan, I didn't expect that as the master of a sect, not only do you not lead by example, but you also personally violate the iron rules of the sect! You've even resorted to threatening us with death! You've disappointed us too much!"
"We'll give you one last chance. Get rid of this abomination, and we can pretend nothing happened!"
"Impossible!" Mu Xuelan's attitude was firm. She said, "No one is allowed to harm my child!"
"You!" Tian Yu Zhe took a deep breath and said coldly, "Since you are so stubborn, then go to the Wind Calamity Cave to atone for your sins. You will only be allowed to leave the Wind Calamity Cave when you are willing to get rid of the abomination in your womb!"
"Eldest Senior Sister!"
Kun Yu Zhe looked distressed.
The other two guardians also hesitated, wanting to plead for her, but they were also filled with immense anger at Mu Xuelan's stubbornness and her actions that disregarded the sect's reputation.
"No need to say more. She has committed such a grave mistake. My sparing her life is already the greatest leniency!" She looked at Qian Yu and Kun Yu and said, "You two take her to the Wind Calamity Cave!"
"No need, I'll go myself!"
Mu Xuelan left resolutely, with Qian Yu and Kun Yu following behind her.
She landed on a mountain peak adjacent to the forbidden area.
Here was an icy cave, with a special field, where wind calamities raged incessantly, making it extremely terrifying.
Since the founding of the sect, only unpardonable sinners of the sect were sent here.
Once one stepped into the Wind Calamity Cave, life would be worse than death.
The wind in the Wind Calamity, though not as terrifying as the Great Sun Wind Calamity, was still extremely frightening.
The wind of the calamity was not ordinary wind. It could blow into one's bones, causing a cutting-like pain to the bones.
Seeing Mu Xuelan resolutely enter the cave,
a heart-wrenching scream quickly came from within.
Qian Yu and Kun Yu's bodies trembled instantly.
Unable to bear listening any longer, they quickly left this place.
Near the cave, two white-haired old women sat cross-legged, guarding the place.
They sighed and activated the barrier on the mountain peak to prevent the screams from spreading throughout the sect.
Then, they closed their eyes, their faces devoid of any emotion.
Inside the cave,
Mu Xuelan no longer possessed her former peerless elegance.
Her hands and feet were fixed by chains enhanced by the formations within, her body suspended in the air, her long black hair disheveled, her whole body bleeding, the pain of her bones being cut causing her to wish she were dead.
Her body was covered with shocking bloodstains.
Only her lower abdomen was well protected.
She concentrated all her true energy there, carefully protecting the little life within.
