Chapter 143 Even in the coldest ice, flowers can bloom.
The two were initially relaxed and unprepared, and thus sank straight to the bottom of the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Yan Ruoyu hugged Zhongli Yuelu tightly.
Zhongli Yueluo also grabbed his shoulder haphazardly due to the momentary loss of weight.
I thought it was cold enough up there, but who knew it was like ice all over the place.
To be more precise, perhaps that is it.
After getting her feet on solid ground, she sneezed several times and kept rubbing her shoulders.
In a short while, his eyelashes were covered in frost.
Yan Ruoyu also felt cold, but his own fire magic countered it, so he felt better.
He subtly pulled her hand, and the two drew close. There was an ice crystal passage inside.
They continued walking along this passage.
But after walking for a short while, other cave entrances appeared in all directions ahead.
Zhongli Yueluo placed both hands on Yan Ruoyu's body and asked tremblingly, "Which way should we take?"
"Follow the wind, and the scent of the Demon Flower is getting closer and closer to us." His voice was deep and steady, without trembling.
"Ruoyu, slow down, I can't breathe. Huff... huff..."
Yan Ruoyu stopped and touched her face; it was already ice-cold.
"Princess." The cloak wrapped around her, and she gradually felt her body warming up, and the ice flowers on her eyelashes melted.
"I'll carry the princess; that might be faster."
Regardless of whether she agreed or not, Yan Ruoyu simply picked her up and carried her forward.
Instead of hanging her arms around his neck, she gripped his collar tightly with both hands.
They don't want to expose their skin at all.
He even felt that wasn't enough, so he covered his head with the entire cloak as well.
Because she felt her scalp was so cold it was going numb.
At first, she could still feel the warmth of Yan Ruoyu's body, but later she could no longer feel the warmth of his hands.
But he kept walking forward without saying a word.
As he grew increasingly slower, Zhongli Yueluo peeked out from under her cloak: "Ruoyu?"
His face was also covered with frost, and when she reached out to touch his face, it was frighteningly cold.
She jumped down from his arms and cupped his face in her hands.
"Ruoyu, stop! If we keep walking blindly like this, we'll both lose consciousness!"
He quickly absorbed the warmth of her hand, and he still had the strength to smile.
"It's alright, Princess. The aura is getting closer and closer; they should be arriving soon."
His hands were frozen stiff, and he couldn't control Zhang He; he could only tremble as he grasped Zhongli Yueluo's hand.
Perhaps it was the warmth from the ring she wore that gradually reached her fingertips, and so their fingers intertwined, their internal fire magic circulated, and they both became much more awake.
They entered a crystal cave, which was covered with icicles that looked like knife points, making it extremely dangerous.
If you make even a slightly loud noise, all the icicles on top will fall down.
They walked this stretch of road almost entirely while holding their breath, the two of them pressed tightly together.
Because the field of vision was too narrow, I didn't see the slope in front of me.
Their feet slipped, and the two of them slid into another place.
Once inside this floor, it didn't feel so cold anymore, and my frozen limbs gradually regained feeling.
It's amazing that vines even grow near the wall.
As they walked toward the center, they saw two flower petals floating in a beam of white light. It was so easy for them to find them!
"Ruoyu, it's a petal of the Demon of Destiny!" Overwhelmed with excitement, she forgot the danger before her.
I wanted to pick some, but I lost my footing and fell into the water.
In an instant, my skin felt hot and painful, followed by cold and numbness. The most crucial thing was that I couldn't even swim in the water here.
She felt something dragging her down, and she kept reaching out, trying to grab onto something.
All she could hear were faint shouts. Yan Ruoyu cried out anxiously, "Princess! Princess!"
Then I felt myself being pulled up again. I was conscious, but I couldn't open my eyes.
She was unaware that her body was gradually freezing at a visible speed.
Yan Ruoyu tried everything she could, but she couldn't solve it.
But unless absolutely necessary, I really don't want to use the Zheng Clan's treatment methods.
"Princess, my apologies." She felt herself being wrapped in a tuft of fur, which made her feel much warmer.
He transformed into his original form, enveloped her, and casually plucked the two petals.
Finally, after slowly opening his eyes, he found that he was also in the form of a medicinal deer.
Yan Ruoyu didn't open her mouth, but the voice went straight to her mind: "The princess has woken up." This was a day later.
"what happened?"
She only remembers drowning; she can't recall anything after that.
Yan Ruoyu added, "The princess was brought up by water."
This makes it even more legendary. Could it be that this water has life?
She struggled to get up and looked around. The green vines she had come from had blossomed into flowers just one day later.
It's amazing that flowers can grow even under such freezing conditions!
Seeing that she was alright, Yan Ruoyu transformed himself back into his former elegant gentleman appearance.
She just twitched her ears and rolled her doe eyes, looking a little embarrassed.
If she were to revert to human form, she would surely be disheveled. Yan Ruoyu covered her eyes with a fan.
"Princess, I don't want to look at you."
After being exposed, Zhongli Yueluo felt even more embarrassed. She swayed slightly, standing in front of him wearing only her undergarments.
With a light tap of his finger, the same orange-red robe was now draped over her.
She nestled in his arms, exuding an indescribable shyness.
"Now that the princess is safe and sound, we should find a place to leave."
Zhongli Yueluo let go of her hand and looked around. The entrance they came from was now completely blocked by vines.
And these vines are as if they are alive, still growing wildly.
It was as if they wanted to break through the ice layer above the cave.
She was somewhat worried, wondering how the ill-fated couple upstairs had fared; perhaps Yingxue had already vanished.
I can't even imagine what Han Che would become if he lost Yingxue. At this moment, the water surface that was shimmering with white light rippled.
Then a string of bubbles rose to the surface of the water, and when they looked closely, Miao Qing's head popped out from among them, her blue eyes staring at them.
Just when I was wondering how to get out, Miaoqing unexpectedly found me in the water.
He was quite numb; he searched for a long time on land, but when he dived into the water, he discovered that he could actually smell their presence.
"Princess, how did you fall to the ground?" He was soaking in the water and didn't get out.
"It's a long story, so I won't go into it. Now that you're here, please lead us out of here." She stood up and was about to jump into the water.
Miao Qing waved her hands repeatedly, and Yan Ruoyu grabbed her.
There's something strange about this water; apart from the He family, probably no one can navigate through it.
Zhongli Yuelu asked in confusion, "Why?"
"This is Luoming, the place where the nymphs hatch. Only the He clan and their nymphs can come and go freely."
“Other races that fall into this place will only continue to sink and become their nourishment.”
She paused, then recalled the feeling of falling into the water, and couldn't help but shiver.
