Chapter 0401 – Encounter in the Snow and Ice – Absolute Return

“Didn’t you just hear that?”

Yang Zhong’s heart, began to beat wildly. He was afraid of the Drunken Demon, and he was also afraid that he would tell the truth.

“Besides, wouldn’t it be better for you if we were caught? Are you afraid of being treated as a traitor? You could say that you told us the whereabouts of those people in order to catch us.”

Jian Wuji had already thought of an excuse for him.

“You’ll really let us go?”

“Will.”

“How can I trust you?”

“Because I promised you.”

Jian Wuji’s eyes, clear and sincere, and his handsome face made people want to believe him. But could one judge a person just by their appearance? Moreover, they still didn’t know what kind of person Jian Wuji really was.

Yang Zhong hesitated, and Jian Wuji turned around and said:

“Then go to hell. Do it, kill them!”

Li An drew his sword and walked towards them. A cold murderous aura came over them, and Yang Zhong screamed in fear:

“I say! I say!”

He finally said where, those people, might be held. He said several places.

“If what you say is true, you’ll be in your room when you wake up.”

Three finger winds, shot out at the same time, sealing their acupoints. They fainted.

Of course, even if what he says is true, I won’t let him off easily. I’m going to talk to the Ice Palace first and see what favors they can give me.

Moreover, I’m going to punish the Northern Blood Sect and make them pay for what they’ve done.

Liam sighed and said:

“Why didn’t I think of that?”

“It wouldn’t have worked even if you had thought of it at the time.”

“Why?”

“They won’t talk, they’ll die trying. And you, on the other hand, won’t torture them into confessing.”

“Ah! I see, he’s telling the truth because he knows that his father, has given up on him!”

“Exactly.”

“It’s not like I thought of it! Why don’t I always think of it!”

Li An looked at Jian Wu Ji adoringly.

Sword Wuji said triumphantly:

“The look of adoration in your eyes really puts me in a good mood.”

We walked out of the room, and outside, it was snowing, harder and harder.

“This time, it’s okay to see enough.”

Liam said happily, looking up at the sky as snowflakes drifted down on her face, and I suddenly realized that she was perfect for winter.

She ran into the snow and had fun.

I looked at her and said to the drunken demon:

“I’ll leave the rescue to you, I’ll go see the Young Palace Master.”

Drunken Devil nodded, then walked into the wind and snow.

Li An stopped and looked at the drunken devil’s back, she had never looked at his back carefully, perhaps because the wind and snow were too heavy, she felt that, his back, was a bit forlorn.

“And you’re just going to, like, leave such an important thing in his hands?”

“He’s a demon lord.”

“Then I’m liberated!”

She happily lay down in the snow and rolled around.

I said as I looked up at the sky:

“No, it’s just beginning.”

I asked Cold Snow to meet me, and she brought ? , came to the appointed place.

Liam and I, were already there waiting for her.

When she saw Li An, she guessed that she was the one, who had kidnapped the second son of the Northern Blood Sect.

”So, his henchman, is a woman.”

Lee Ann and I, were talking, and they seemed, close, like friends, or brother and sister.

‘He is, indeed, not a little dignified.’

Whether he was facing the Drunken Demon or the current situation, he acted casually.

She couldn’t help but wonder if those rumors about the Young Sect Master had been exaggerated. After all, the Devil Cult, was the best at creating rumors.

She walked up to us and Liam bowed respectfully.

“Greetings, Young Palace Master.”

Cold Snow nodded slightly as a return greeting. The look in her eyes seemed to say: you are just an underling.

Yet I didn’t see any arrogance or disdain in her eyes, I only saw emptiness.

“What do you want from me?”

I opened the door:

“I can release the Second Prince of the Northern Blood Sect.”

A glimmer of hope flared in Cold Snow’s heart, perhaps, this matter, could be resolved peacefully.

“You must have conditions, right?”

“Sure.”

“Say it.”

“First, you cannot hold, my men accountable.”

Cold Snow glanced at Liam, then looked at me.

“I don’t know if the Northern Blood Sect, will agree.”

Although she said this on her lips, she knew that the Northern Blood Sect, had no choice. They were like a ship trapped by a storm, they could only go with the waves and could not resist.

“Alright, I promise you. Yang Zhong, where are you now?”

“I have one more condition.”

“On what terms?”

“Let’s stay at the Ice Palace, we want to investigate, the death of the Dean of the Hundred Wine and Snow Courtyard, the cause of death.”

Cold Snow flatly refused.

“We, the Ice Palace, do not receive outsiders.”

“Those are the only two conditions I have.”

“This matter, I can’t make the decision, I need to discuss it with the Palace Master.”

I said as Coldsnow turned and prepared to leave:

“You should be able to make the decision on such a small matter, right? How about you make the decision and then go convince your mother? You’re the Young Palace Master, you should have that right, right?”

This was a provocation, but Cold Snow, was not angry.

“I don’t have that right.”

“You can fight for it.”

Cold Snow’s eyes, became icy cold.

“Your purpose, it’s too obvious, isn’t it?”

“I just wanted to give you a chance.”

“What are the chances?”

“An opportunity to negotiate with the Sky Demon Divine Sect’s Young Sect Master,. Your mother, will definitely pay attention to this matter, she is, perhaps, looking forward to, you being on your own.”

It suddenly occurred to Coldsnow what she should say when she reported to her mother.

In this case, it is my own decision. Please believe me and support me.

The problem was, she had no idea, what her mother’s, reaction would be. She knew nothing about her mother, at all.

“I’ll be in touch.”

She turned and prepared to leave, when Liam said:

“Can I say something?”

Li An, who had been silent, finally spoke. She slowly removed her bucket hat and veil.

Cold Snow looked at Li An’s face and froze. She wasn’t attracted by Li An’s beauty.

She just felt that Liam, and herself, were different.

When had she, ever felt this way? A long time ago, to her mother, had she ever said such a thing?

But she didn’t understand, why would she feel this way about a, subordinate of the Sky Demon God Sect’s young master? Why would she, touch herself so much? She herself could not understand.

“What are you trying to say?”

Two beautiful women with very different personalities, for the first time, looking at each other.
