Chapter 0414 – Cold Snow Coquettishly Probes Hidden Information – Absolute Return
by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)“We’ve already met three times?” Cold Snow’s brows frowned slightly, she didn’t have much of an impression of the Northern Blood Sect’s Young Lord Yang Shi, and it seemed that there was only a one-sided encounter in her memory.
“Today’s meeting is already the fourth time.” Yang shi pretended to smile in a dashing manner, hiding his inner loss.
“Sorry, I don’t have a good memory.” Cold Snow said faintly.
“There is no harm, Fairy Cold is busy with her nobleman’s business, some small matters, what’s the big deal.” Although Yang Shi was a little displeased in his heart, he still put on a magnanimous demeanor.
He had been admiring Cold Snow for a long time, and looking at the entire North Sea, which young man did not adore this fairy with icy skin and jade bones? If you can hold a beauty, and at the same time, you can also the North Sea Ice Palace and other behemoths in the bag, is not it a pleasure?
However, cold snow has always been known as “iceberg beauty”, never heard of her to which man has ever moved the heart.
“I don’t know what Fairy Cold’s visit today is about?” Yang Shi pressed down the excitement in his heart and opened his mouth to ask.
With a calm countenance, Cold Snow first expressed his condolences, “I heard of your brother’s unfortunate passing, please express my condolences.”
“This matter is indeed saddening, but I have already looked away.” Yang Shi said indifferently, but in his heart, he was secretly puzzled.
”How could this cold-as-ice Young Palace Master specially come to care about this kind of thing?”
He had a vague feeling in his heart that Cold Snow had another purpose for this trip.
“Recently, I heard that Fairy Cold is investigating the death of the demonic path and the original owner of the Hundred Wine Snow Plain, I wonder if there is any progress?” Yang Shi asked tentatively.
“I’ve poked around a bit, but I have no clue.” Cold Snow sighed softly, but in her heart, she was secretly happy.
Her trip was precisely to get close to Yang Shi and pry for information. Originally, she was still agonizing over how to open her mouth, but she didn’t expect the other party to take the initiative to mention this matter, which saved her a lot of effort.
“I wonder if Young Master Yang knows anything?” Cold Snow pursued.
“I also want to know the inside story, but unfortunately I know nothing.” Yang Shi shook his head in mock regret.
Without moving, Cold Snow asked, “Does Young Master Yang know that nowadays, people from the Devil’s Way are hiding in my Ice Palace?”
“How could I not know about this matter? My poor brother was killed by those devil cubs!” Yang Shi gritted his teeth and said.
Of course, this was only superficial anger. In reality, in his heart, he was more than grateful to those people in the devil’s path, if it wasn’t for them, how could he get rid of that obtrusive younger brother and successfully inherit the position of the young master?
“That Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master acted in a perverse and domineering manner, and now he is even using this matter as an excuse to force us to hand over the murderer.” Cold Snow continued.
Yang Shi’s heart was suddenly clear, he knew why Cold Snow had come.
‘This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!’
In the past, this arrogant Ice Palace young master but even do not even look at him, now even take the initiative to find the door to ask for help, is really a godsend!
“Don’t worry, Fairy Cold, as long as I can help, I will do my best!” Yang Shi patted his chest and assured.
Just as Yang Shi was racking his brain, thinking about how to perform well in front of Cold Snow, Chen Mo, the commander of the guards outside the guest hall and a master of the North Sea Ice Palace, “Cold Wind Sword”, had his eyes on a figure walking slowly not far away – that person was Yang Shi’s personal bodyguard, Xia Jie. That person was Yang Shi’s personal guard, Xia Jie.
Chen Mo did not move as he sized up the other party, as the commander of the guards of the Beihai Ice Palace, he had seen guards of all shapes and sizes, and Xia Jie had left a deep impression on him the first time he appeared in front of him.
Summer Knot carried a strong Jianghu aura, his alert pace, sharp eyes, and the concentration of trying to see through his opponent’s hidden blades when observing them, as well as his bloodshot eyes due to prolonged fatigue, all indicated that he was an experienced guard.
‘How did he leave Youngstone?’
Chen Mo was puzzled in his heart. Even if this was the territory of the Northern Blood Sect, but as the personal guard of the Young Lord, how could he easily leave his post? What if something unexpected happened during this time? What if the Young Lord and Cold Snow got into a conflict?
Of course, the probability of such a thing happening was negligible, but as a qualified escort, one had to take into account any accidents that might occur.
Summer Knot’s actions, in Chen Mo’s opinion, were just too counterintuitive.
”Is there anything else that is more important than protecting the Young Lord?”
Chen Mo’s heart was filled with doubts, of course he wouldn’t know that Summer Knot had left in order to deal with the corpse of a maid that he had drained of her essence blood.
Just then, Summer Knot suddenly raised her head and swept her gaze across the roof, as if sensing something.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing this, Chen Mo couldn’t help but ask.
“Nothing.” Summer Knot said lightly, withdrawing her gaze.
Chen Mo was even more puzzled in his heart as he looked around but found nothing. He revolved his true qi and raised his perception to the extreme, and still didn’t notice anything unusual.
‘Could it be that I’m feeling wrong?’
Chen Mo pondered in his heart, he asked himself that his cultivation was not weak, since he did not notice any abnormality, how did Xia Jie notice it? Could it be that the other party’s cultivation is above his own?
Thinking about this, Chen Mo became even more vigilant in his heart. If the other party was really stronger than himself, then his behavior just now was even more suspicious.
”No, I have to remind Fairy Cold.”
Chen Mo secretly decided in his heart, but on the surface, he did not move.
At this moment, the conversation in the guest hall continued. Yang shi spoke at great length, while Han Xue listened quietly, occasionally asking a question or two.
Cold Snow was originally worried that her poor acting skills would be seen as a breakthrough by Yang Shi, but when she actually acted, she realized that it was much easier than she had imagined. Perhaps, she was born for this kind of thing.
“I’ve always had a question in my mind.” Cold Snow suddenly asked.
“What doubts?” Yang Shi asked in a hurry.
“Why did your brother get involved with the Demon Cult?” Cold Snow asked.
Yang Shi’s face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal as he pretended to be calm and said, “Fairy Cold doesn’t know, those people in the Devil Cult, each and every one of them is a hungry wolf that eats people and doesn’t spit out bones, and as long as there’s an opportunity, they’ll try to bite a piece of meat off of us by any means possible.”
“So it is.” Cold Snow nodded, but secretly sneered in his heart.
Of course she knew that Yang Shi was not telling the truth, but the purpose of her trip was not to track down the death of the Yang brothers, but to extract more information about the Demon Cult from Yang Shi.
“I actually came here this time to ask Young Lord Yang for a favor.” Cold Snow said.
“Fairy Cold, please speak.” Yang Shi was delighted in his heart and said in a hurry.
“In a few days, I would like to ask Young Lord Yang to accompany me to meet that Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master.” Cold Snow said.
She made this decision solely because of Lee Ann’s suggestion.
Previously, when dealing with other matters, whenever she encountered a time when she needed to make a choice, Li An would always suggest that she leave things to Jian Wuji, and the results were always surprisingly good. This time, she decided to trust Li An’s judgment once again.
When Yang Shi heard this, his heart was instantly happy, he interpreted Cold Snow’s proposal as the other party needing to use his power to deal with that Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master.
“No problem, I’ll go make arrangements.” Yang Shi agreed in a single breath, his heart thrilled.
How could he not expect that he would have the chance to fight alongside Cold Snow, this was a dream come true! It seemed that those people from the demonic sect were not all bad, at least, they had created an opportunity for themselves to get close to the goddess!
“Then thank you, Young Lord Yang.” Cold Snow got up to take his leave.
Yang shi reluctantly sent Cold Snow away until the other party’s silhouette disappeared at the end of his line of sight, then he reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
“What a charming woman ……,” Yang Shi muttered, his heart filled with longing for the future.
Cold Snow led Chen Mo away from the Northern Blood Sect, and all the way there, Chen Mo looked preoccupied.
“What’s wrong?” Cold Snow noticed Chen Mo’s abnormality and opened her mouth to ask.
“My subordinate feels that there is something odd about that Xia Jie.” Chen Mo hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out the doubts in his heart.
“Oh? How?” Coldsnow asked.
“His every move is like that of an experienced guard, but on the contrary, he has made some abnormal moves.” Chen Mo said, “My subordinate suspects that he may have hidden his strength.”
When Cold Snow heard this, she frowned slightly, she trusted Chen Mo’s judgment, since the other party said that there was something wrong with Summer Knot, then this person was definitely not simple.
“I know, I’ll be careful.” Cold Snow said.
After the two of them returned to the Ice Palace, Yang Shi immediately found his father, Northern Blood Sect Master Yang Zhentian, with great gusto.
