Chapter 0405 – The Truth About the Posthumous Letter – Absolute Return

“What do you mean by that?”

Jian Wuji suddenly said that he wanted to help his mother, which caused a shock in Cold Snow’s heart, as if her mind had been seen through.

The reason why Jian Wuji said this was because he already had a suspect in his mind. If the Blood King really had his eyes on the Ice Palace, then they would have to join forces to fight against it.

Of course, he couldn’t tell this to Cold Snow, so he said it in a different way, “The reason why the Ice Palace Master agreed to my conditions is because she reached some sort of agreement with the Northern Blood Sect. She saved the second son of the Northern Blood Sect’s Sect Master, and in exchange, the Northern Blood Sect will definitely pay a corresponding price.”

Coldsnow couldn’t refute those words.

“Now that we have entered the Ice Palace, your mother will definitely have to be distracted with the matters of the Northern Blood Sect, so you must take on the responsibility of receiving us.” Jian Wuji continued.

Was that really the case? Cold Snow always felt that Jian Wuji seemed to have a deeper intention.

“The Young Sect Master doesn’t need to worry about the matters of the Ice Palace.” Cold Snow said coldly.

“I’m doing this for your own good.”

It was rare for Coldsnow to have long conversations with anyone other than her mother.

She was used to speaking succinctly and clearly, and who dared to prattle on in her presence?

However, this Jian Wuji always made her unable to resist speaking. Or rather, she simply couldn’t refuse his words.

“Why are you helping me?” Coldsnow asked.

“I’m just trying to help.”

“There’s no such thing as good intentions in this world without a reason.”

Coldsnow said in a firm tone, turning to leave.

She didn’t like accepting other people’s good intentions, and even more so, she didn’t like owing other people favors. Emotional exchanges between people, in her opinion, were like passing concealed weapons coated with poison to each other, and the slightest carelessness would hurt people and herself.

Jian Wuji followed behind her and asked, “Why are you avoiding me?”

“I’m not hiding from you.” Cold Snow stopped and said coldly, “I just ……”

“Just what?”

“I just haven’t found the right time to show up.”

“There are no good intentions in this world without reason or excuse.”

Cold Snow was suddenly speechless, and said in her heart, “This person is really oily and is best at provoking others.”

She suddenly realized that she hadn’t been this angry in a long time. She hated this kind of people who liked to play tricks on others and toy with their feelings.

Cold Snow no longer paid attention to Jian Wuji and continued to walk forward.

The Ice Palace disciples who passed by saluted her.

As usual, Cold Snow was expressionless and coldly responded to their greetings.

“Are you always so cold to your subordinates?” Jian Wuji suddenly asked.

“We are martial artists, why do we need to talk about those false courtesies?” Cold Snow asked rhetorically.

She really couldn’t understand Jian Wuji’s thoughts, the values of the two were simply worlds apart.

“Did they come here to swim in the mountains? Can you talk and laugh with them while ordering them to go on dangerous missions? Will they willingly obey your orders?”

Jian Wu Ji was silent.

“Why don’t you say something?”

“You’re right, I have nothing to say.”

After staring at Jian Wuji for a while, Cold Snow finally turned around and left, dropping a sentence before leaving, “Even if you are the young master of the Demon Sect, one day, you will still be taught a hard lesson.”

She quickened her pace, not wanting to tangle with Jian Wuji anymore.

“Let’s drink together sometime! Big Brother Drunken Demon has been quitting getting drunk lately, and I don’t even have anyone to drink with me anymore. That girl Li An is righteous again and refuses to drink with me.” Sword Wuji’s voice came from behind him.

“This person is truly hopeless.” Cold Snow said in her heart, “Drunken Devil abstaining from alcohol? Li An speaks of righteousness? Don’t I have righteousness? What exactly does he want?”

Cold Snow no longer paid attention to Jian Wuji and left straight away.

The smile on Jian Wuji’s face faded as he looked at Cold Snow’s departing back.

He knew that an invisible wall had been built in Cold Snow’s heart, and that if he wanted to get close to her, he had to find another way.

The reason he had gone to such lengths was not to change Cold Snow’s character or to fill the void in her heart, but for her safety, as well as the safety of the entire North Sea Ice Palace.

If the Blood King really meddled in the affairs of the Ice Palace, then Cold Snow would definitely be his target.

Jian Wuji looked around at the buildings rising from the ground in this icy sky and snow, as well as those huge warrior statues carved out of ice and snow, and said in his heart, “Blood King, where exactly are you hiding?”

What secrets do your blood-stained hands hide?

The North Sea Ice Palace had arranged three guest rooms for Jian Wuji’s trio.

“You stay in the center one.” Jian Wuji said to Li An.

“Are you guys trying to protect me on the left and right?” Li An asked with a smile.

“Of course it’s so that I can continue to eat the delicious noodles you make.” Jian Wuji said with a smile.

Now the situation of the Ice Palace is not clear, they must be careful. Drunken Devil can naturally protect himself, and Jian Wuji practiced “Heavenly Devil Body Protecting Sacred Skill” has been completed, as long as Li An lives next door, he can sense her safety.

“Before I came here, I had already notified Silver Moon and Tongtian Pavilion, telling them to focus all of their strength on investigating the North Sea Ice Palace and the Northern Blood Sect.”

When the two major intelligence organizations join hands, they will surely be able to exert great power.

“I suspect that the masterminds behind this incident are the same group of people as those who were previously making waves in the Martial Alliance and Evil Demon Alliance.” Jian Wuji said.

Drunken Devil and Li An both nodded in agreement.

Those people, even the Wind and Thunder Sect outside of Seychelles had infiltrated, and it would be strange if the Ice Palace didn’t have any traces of them.

“It seems that the enemy this time, is more dangerous than we thought.” Li An said worriedly, “Young Sect Master, you have to be careful!”

“Don’t worry, with Big Brother Drunken Demon protecting me, nothing will happen.” Jian Wuji smiled and said, “Right, Big Brother Drunken Devil?”

“Ah! I want to get drunk.” The Drunken Demon suddenly said, as if he hadn’t heard Jian Wuji’s words.

“Can you be normal?” Jian Wuji said helplessly.

Liam couldn’t help but laugh as he watched the two fight.

She had never thought before that the Drunken Devil was such a person. She had originally thought that the Drunken Devil was so drunk all day that he was unable to communicate properly. She was also worried that once the Drunken Devil became angry, he would fall into madness and do something terrible.

On top of that, she thought the drunken demon would use the drunken essence to paralyze himself and escape reality.

However, the Drunken Devil chose to abstain from drunkenness, to face the world with a sober mind, to dissolve the sadness in his heart. He knew that using drunkenness to dispel his sorrows was not a true relief.

“We must be careful of the Northern Blood Sect, they definitely won’t stop.” Drunken Devil suddenly said.

“Will they destroy all the evidence and then kill to silence them?” Li An asked worriedly.

“It will.” Jian Wuji said with certainty.

“So we’re just sitting ducks?”

“Don’t worry, the more they try to cover up the truth, the more they will reveal themselves.”

“Yes?”

Although Li An said this on his lips, he was still a little uneasy in his heart.

It was a battle she had never experienced before.

The Black Hand behind the Curtain, the Northern Blood Sect, and the Northern Sea Ice Palace, these powerful enemies surrounded them like a bronze wall.

“Are you afraid?” Jian Wuji asked.

“Of course I’m scared.” Liam replied truthfully.

However, she looked at Jian Wu Ji and Drunken Devil, and her eyes were filled with determination again.

“But I’m excited.”

Early the next morning, the three of them began their investigation into the death of the former Palace Master.

Cold Snow personally came to pick them up and took them to the former Palace Master’s room.

She seemed to have forgotten about yesterday’s incident, and her attitude towards Jian Wuji had returned to its usual coldness.

“The former Palace Master’s room, which has been kept in its original state, was ordered by the Palace Master not to be tampered with by anyone.”

This was undoubtedly good news for their investigation. But why would the Ice Palace Master do this? Was it because she was close to the former Palace Lord? Or was it because she also suspected the cause of the former Palace Master’s death?

“How did the former Palace Master die?” Drunken Devil asked.

“She drank the poisoned wine.” Coldsnow replied.

“Poisoned wine?” The Drunken Devil sniffed and frowned.

“Wasn’t it a suicide?”
