Chapter 254 Worldly Affection [7] Ice and Snow Overlord
【Ice Crystal River】
Upon entering the Ice Crystal River, even Shui Qingli, who had no concept of temperature, felt a biting chill, as if the cold could penetrate to the bone, forcing him to use some of his immortal power to protect himself.
However, these were all minor matters. Shui Qingli's attention was completely drawn to the giant ice lotus flower, which was about to bloom, inside the Ice Crystal River.
If his senses are correct, his sister should be inside that ice lotus flower.
Shui Qingli walked up to the ice lotus as if possessed and reached out to touch the huge petals.
Just then, the ice lotus was suddenly covered by a layer of light blue light, and powerful immortal energy rippled outwards, causing the unprepared Shui Qingli to be forced back two steps.
Shui Qingli looked closely and saw, in the dazzling light, the enormous petals unfolding one by one.
She had long, white hair that reached the ground, wore a dazzling ice crown, and a long, ice-blue dress adorned with a chain of blue pearls and gemstones, making her look noble and glamorous.
A pair of icy blue eyes slowly opened, their gentle movement adding a touch of nobility and liveliness to her stunningly beautiful face.
The ice lotus vanished into thin air, and the newly born Ice and Snow Overlord landed in front of Shui Qingli.
“You…” Since ice and water are of the same origin, Bing Lixue recognized at a glance that the extraordinary fairy in front of her was her brother—the Water Lord Shui Qingli.
"You're my brother?" Bing Lixue already had the answer in her heart, but she still asked uncertainly.
"Yes, my name is Shui Qingli." Shui Qingli was a little embarrassed for a moment. She was so busy visiting her younger sister that she didn't really know how to get along with the fairy. She could only answer Bing Lixue's questions in a very formal way.
Bing Lixue was amused by Shui Qingli's stunned expression, but considering she had to give her brother some face, she stopped laughing and solemnly introduced herself: "I am the Ice and Snow Ruler, Bing Lixue."
Seeing that Shui Qingli didn't seem to be very good at communication and social interaction, Bing Lixue didn't make things difficult for him. Instead, she directly asked what she needed help with: "Brother, I was born in Bingjingchuan. Can I consider this place my territory?"
"Of course, I'll help you build the palace." Shui Qingli realized that the first thing she wanted to do was to settle down. She couldn't let her well-behaved and lovely sister wander for thousands of years like she and Yue Yuanming.
Moreover, the snowstorms these past few days have been too severe, and many fairies must have noticed Bing Lixue. He still needs to find a way to protect his younger sister.
Fortunately, Mu Tiange always appeared in a black robe, and Shui Qingli rarely made a move; otherwise, the fact that he was a second-tier cultivator might have implicated Bing Lixue.
Bing Lixue, who was enthusiastically selecting a site for Bingjingchuan, had no idea that her brother had been worrying himself sick over her in such a short time.
For a whole month, because Yue Yuanming did not urge Shui Qingli to return, and because Bing Lixue had just been born, Shui Qingli stayed with Bing Jingchuan.
Together with her, he built a palace that resembled an ice sculpture, hastily naming it the Ice Crystal Palace.
He taught her how to cultivate her control abilities, just as patiently as Yue Yuanming had been back then.
He helped her deal with many wicked fairies to prevent her from being deceived by those with malicious intentions.
It can be said that Shui Qingli had given Bing Lixue all her patience and gentleness, explaining everything in detail, so Bing Lixue quickly got used to her current life.
However, Shui Qingli was unaware that someone had already wrecked her house several times because of her behavior lately...
A month later, Shui Qingli finally returned to Mutian Pavilion. Looking at the eight Dharma Images who stood obediently on her steps like quails, not daring to breathe, Shui Qingli felt that something was strange.
Of course, upon returning to Mutian Pavilion, his first thought was to see Yue Yuanming, but Yin Chen stopped him at that moment: "Vice Prime Minister, the World King said he is going into seclusion and will not see anyone for the time being."
"Okay, I understand. Let me know when he comes out of seclusion." Shui Qingli was stunned for a moment, but she didn't suspect anything was wrong. Instead, her mind was full of her younger sister Bing Lixue, who had just settled down in Bingjingchuan.
Since Yue Yuanming is in seclusion, he might as well go and keep his sister company. Bing Lixue is still not very familiar with this world, and as her older brother, he should do his duty.
With these thoughts in mind, Shui Qingli left Mutian Pavilion without hesitation, completely unaware of the gloomy and terrifying expression on Yue Yuanming's face, who was currently in "seclusion"...
When Shui Qingli returned to Mutian Pavilion, she found Yue Yuanming, whom she hadn't seen for two months, sitting expressionlessly on the throne in the empty hall.
"Qingli, you still know how to come back?"
