Chapter 131: Qing Dai, Why Are You So Much Bigger Again?
“Is it snowing?”
Hua Hongyi tightened her dress, feeling the bone-chilling cold under this terrifying cold wave.
Even with all her magical powers, she couldn’t fully fend it off.
Something’s off!
Ye Xi’s expression shifted, his eyes narrowing as he cautiously looked at the sky, a trace of confusion flickering in his gaze.
Whoosh—
The cold wind howled, and the snow kept falling harder. Moments later, the peaks of the mountains were dusted with white like they were wearing frosty caps.
In just a short while, this area seemed to have completely transformed into an icy realm.
A thousand miles of ice, ten thousand miles of snow drifting.
Finally, amidst the whistling snowstorm, a huge shadow appeared, weaving through the blizzards.
Ye Xi focused his gaze, clearing things up—those were dozens of transparent ice cranes.
Two rows flying over from the distance.
On each crane’s back stood a lady dressed in palace attire. The one at the forefront, with stunning eyes and a perfect smile, elegantly rolled her long hair, casting a distant gaze at the two below.
That lady, with a courteous nod, said, “From the Extreme Ice Celestial Palace, we’ve come to invite Ye Xi to the mansion for a chat.”
Ye Xi raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of interest.
Quickly, his mind flashed through information about Qiongying Celestial Mansion and Extreme Ice Celestial Palace.
Unlike other celestial mansions, this one had no master; the Extreme Ice Celestial Palace was the strongest force in the whole mansion. It was one of the ten super celestial mansions!
It was said that the palace master had unfathomable cultivation, recognized across all celestial mansions as the Ice Queen!
“You’re inviting me for a chat?”
Ye Xi pondered for a moment, asking with some confusion.
In his mind, he silently thought, “Did Master forget to mention this Ice Queen is also the Master’s Wife? That’s inconvenient to forget!”
Ye Xi’s mind was racing, suddenly apprehensive, “It can’t be that this palace master isn’t the Master’s Wife but an enemy? That could be troublesome!”
“They’re already coming to my door!”
The lady named Su Sha smiled slightly and replied politely, “Indeed, the palace master has specifically instructed us to invite you, Young Master Ye Xi.”
She paused and added, “I hope you won’t decline!”
With that, the atmosphere fell silent, leaving only the sound of howling winds and snow.
Ye Xi glanced at the party of ladies in palace attire, noting that they all had impressive cultivation levels.
Clearly, they were planning to drag him along.
If he refused, they wouldn’t hesitate to take action…
“Ugh!”
Ye Xi sighed and agreed, “Alright, please lead the way!”
“Ye Xi, this…”
Hua Hongyi was a bit worried, but before she could finish, Ye Xi interrupted her.
He met her gaze, signaling her to relax, and said, “Don’t worry. If they wanted to act against me, they wouldn’t make such a fuss. I guess there might be some misunderstanding regarding my Master.”
“I’ll just go clear things up.”
Ye Xi was well aware that they couldn’t possibly be after him, even though he was currently the leader of the Nine States Alliance.
But the Extreme Ice Celestial Palace wouldn’t need to make a fuss about wanting to see him outright.
The most likely scenario? It had to be some emotional debt left by Lin Feng…
“I wonder if this Master’s Wife is just pulling my leg.”
Ye Xi felt his scalp tingle—each of these Master’s Wives had such impressive backgrounds, and none were easy to mess with.
Yet, they all expected him to handle it!
He couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless.
Warm reminder: If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time!
—
Standing atop the ice crane, Su Sha’s clothes fluttering, she beamed with joy upon Ye Xi’s quick affirmation, “Young Master Ye, please follow me!”
Saying that, she unleashed her power, making the swirling snow and wind coalesce into an ice crane that flew before Ye Xi.
Su Sha smiled, “Young Master Ye, please!”
Ye Xi didn’t hesitate—he flashed onto the ice crane and then looked back at Zhuang Hongyi, saying, “You head back; don’t worry, I’ll be right back!”
Zhuang Hongyi nodded, “Go on!”
In the next moment, the ice cranes split into two rows, shooting up into the sky, disappearing into the swirling snowstorm.
As the ice cranes flew away, the biting chill in the air gradually receded.
Zhuang Hongyi stood still, trying to catch a glimpse of Ye Xi’s shadow, and couldn’t help but murmur, “Do these Celestial Mansion folks always have to show off their magical abilities first? Is it some sort of atmospheric thing?”
After today’s chaotic encounters, she couldn’t help but chuckle a little.
Then, Zhuang Hongyi turned into a beam of light and vanished, determined to hurry back with the news of Ye Xi heading for the Extreme Ice Celestial Palace.

Meanwhile!
Inside the secret realm of the Celestial Mansion, Lin Feng and Yuan Ruoyu had been there for a couple of days now.
During these two days, they had gotten familiar with the surroundings.
Each had opened their own cave residence around the big lake since they’d be staying there for quite some time.
Lin Feng looked at yet another cave he had constructed and sighed, “I said we should live together, but you all insisted on spreading out, digging here and there, ruining the environment!”
Ye Qingge snorted coldly in response, “It’s so big here; how could it affect the environment? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!”
“What am I up to?”
“Don’t think…”
As Ye Qingge spoke, her face flushed, and she turned away with a huff.
Inside, she mused, “This j*rk, let’s see if I can’t whip him next time!”
Meanwhile, Yuan Ruoyu and the Purple Paulownia Great Emperor exchanged shy glances, throwing annoyed glares at Lin Feng.
Boom!
At that moment, from a distant hill, a massive commotion arose, and an astounding aura of demonic energy flooded the realm.
Ye Qingge looked over, surprise evident on her face, “Is Qing Dai about to completely refine the energy of the dragon fish pearl? This aura is even stronger than before!”
Lin Feng was also somewhat taken aback; it seemed refining the dragon fish pearl was indeed enhancing Qing Dai’s bloodline further.
A glimmer of excitement crossed his eyes as he thought, “Improving the Chaotic Bloodline might also elevate the Chaotic Spirit Milk!”
“This is a win-win!”
As they chatted, the disturbance in the distance grew louder, and the surrounding spiritual energy in the heavens and earth became increasingly chaotic.
Boom!
In the next moment, a terrifying engulfing force surged forth, the pure spiritual energy wildly converging towards the location of Qing Dai.
Then, it was completely absorbed and refined.
The Purple Paulownia Great Emperor’s light purple pupils flickered, and he said with seriousness, “Taking this opportunity, she might have a chance to break into the ascension stage!”
Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge’s eyes narrowed, somewhat envious.
But then the Purple Paulownia shook his head, disappointed, “But it’s a pity that even if her body and powers reach perfection, her understanding of the Great Dao still can’t break through!”
“Truly breaking through that bit is tough!”
Lin Feng squinted, smiled, and replied, “Don’t worry; soon all of this will be realized. This Celestial Mansion is my attempt at completing the Great Dao!”
At that moment, the commotion in the distance quieted down.
Everything fell back to peace.
Qing Dai sat cross-legged under an old tree, suddenly opening her eyes and feeling a power like she’d never known—her joy was palpable.
Suddenly!
She frowned lightly, sensing an even stronger downward feeling in front of her…
Qing Dai looked down and was instantly flabbergasted!
Why had she grown so much?
Just then, Lin Feng and the others came flying over, and upon hearing their voices, Qing Dai hurriedly shouted, “Wait, don’t come over yet!”
