Xin Qingxue did not answer, only gritted her teeth, making a creaking sound. Her beautiful eyes were also filled with hatred.
Li Chen patted the snow off his hands and smiled coldly, "Very well, another question. What are you doing in this icy, ghostly place all alone?"
Xin Qingxue still did not answer, continuing to glare at Li Chen with eyes full of hatred.
Li Chen stopped asking questions and simply stared at Xin Qingxue.
Xin Qingxue felt uncomfortable under Li Chen’s blatant gaze, as if her heart was in turmoil.
After a long ti, Li Chen finally spoke again, saying leisurely, "Once, twice, but not thrice. One last question, what is this place?"
Xin Qingxue still had no intention of answering, this ti even turning her head away to avoid looking at Li Chen’s eyes.
"Haha, do you think that just because of this, I can’t do anything to you?"
Before he finished speaking, a wisp of fla ignited at Li Chen’s fingertip, which he flicked into Xin Qingxue’s forehead.
Soon, this small spark turned into a raging blaze, burning all of Xin Qingxue’s clothing into ashes.
Xin Qingxue herself suffered unprecedented pain, crying out in agony, rolling back and forth in the snow.
"Li Chen, you devil, devil. Just kill , kill !"
Li Chen did not answer, clapped his hands, and quietly admired Xin Qingxue’s naked body rolling in the snow, with an elegant posture.
Xin Qingxue was in so much pain she wished to die; initially, she could still curse Li Chen as a bastard, a devil.
But after so rolling, she had no strength left.
At this mont, she only wished to die quickly for a sweet relief.
That way, at least she wouldn’t have to suffer humiliation at the hands of the demon Li Chen.
Li Chen saw that the ti was about right, and flicked a wisp of ice and snow with his fingers into Xin Qingxue’s body.
As the coldness seeped in, the burning pain from the flas within her body vanished without a trace.
At this mont, she lay naked in the icy and snowy land, her hair disheveled like a madwoman, with not a bit of her Heavenly Pride Girl aura left.
However, her skin was still as white as jade, flawless. The blazing Red Lotus Fla hadn’t left a single mark on her body.
Aside from the searing pain, it seed as if everything she had experienced before was a re illusion, as if it had never happened.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
It was an illusion, just too realistic, reaching the point where it could be mistaken for reality.
Perhaps due to the cold or fear, Xin Qingxue’s body had curled into a ball, like a baby nestled in its mother’s arms.
This was a typical sign of lacking a sense of security!
Li Chen stepped forward and asked coldly, "Immortal, I think now, you can honestly answer my question!"
"What is this place?"
Xin Qingxue glanced up at Li Chen, and when their eyes t, she quickly looked away, trembling as she replied, "This is Dragon Ascending Valley!"
Li Chen then asked a few more questions.
Xin Qingxue did not lie and answered them all truthfully.
Seeing Xin Qingxue’s satisfactory response, Li Chen gently patted her head as encouragent.
"Very good, from now on, you shall be my maid for a month. Once the ti is up, our grievances will be written off. What do you think?"
"Dream on!"
Hearing that Li Chen actually had whimsical ideas of making her his maid, Xin Qingxue’s trampled pride suddenly erupted.
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and casually asked, "Are you sure?"
Xin Qingxue could swear to the heavens that Li Chen’s eyes were the most terrifying eyes she had ever seen in her life.
She didn’t even have the courage to et his gaze.
"I can agree, but there’s a condition!"
Seeing that Xin Qingxue’s psychological defense was beginning to crumble, Li Chen smiled devilishly and said, "Go on, what condition?"
Xin Qingxue said, "You cannot force to do... that kind of thing!"
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and casually asked, "What kind of thing are you referring to?"
Seeing Li Chen’s feigned ignorance, Xin Qingxue was irritated, her face blushing bright red in embarrassnt.
"You know in your heart, why ask?"
Li Chen smirked, "Alright, as long as you behave, I won’t touch you. But if you have any bad intentions, don’t bla for being ruthless!"
While speaking, Li Chen gestured nacingly, scaring Xin Qingxue into trembling all over.
"We agreed, only for one month. After a month, you must let go!"
Li Chen nodded, "Of course, I always keep my word!"
"Also, you have to give back the Ice Soul..."
Seeing Li Chen being so agreeable, Xin Qingxue dared to muster her courage and ask for the Ice Soul.
However, before she could finish her request, Li Chen’s deep and sharp gaze swept over her.
"You’re asking a bit much!"
Xin Qingxue shuddered, remaining silent, not daring to utter another word.
Just then, the entire ice plain suddenly trembled violently.
A Divine Tree shot out from the ground, growing rapidly at a visible pace, soaring straight into the Nine Heavens Cloud.
Seeing such a heaven and earth marvel, Li Chen couldn’t help but be surprised.
"What abundant Spiritual Power!"
"It’s the Jietian Divine Tree!"
Xin Qingxue also widened her eyes, exclaiming in disbelief.
Li Chen was puzzled and looked at Xin Qingxue questioningly.
"Jietian Divine Tree?"
Xin Qingxue nodded, "Yes, this is a Divine Tree nurtured by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power. It appears three tis every 60 years. However, each ti it only lasts for an hour. The Divine Tree contains great fortune, and each ti soone gains the tree’s recognition and obtains the inheritance within, they can soar to the skies!"
Hearing Xin Qingxue’s explanation, Li Chen beca interested in the Jietian Divine Tree.
"Let’s go, let’s check it out!"
Xin Qingxue did not speak, only nodded lightly.
A sly, accomplished smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
It wasn’t because the words she just said were false.
In fact, everything was true, without a single lie.
But so words at the end were deliberately left out.
The Jietian Divine Tree indeed holds great fortune, but also great risk.
Each ti the tree opens, only a hundred people can enter, and they all must be cultivators of the Golden Core Realm.
But in the end, only one lucky person receives the inheritance and survives. The remaining ninety-nine people all perish inside.
In other words, the birth of one lucky person is made possible by the piling bones of ninety-nine other companions.
Such peril can’t even be described as a near-death experience, but rather complete annihilation.
If Li Chen dies in the Jietian Divine Tree, the humiliation he imposed upon her would naturally be avenged.
Thinking about how her great revenge might soon be delivered, Xin Qingxue was in great spirits. Caught in her delight, she slipped and fell heavily to the ground.
Li Chen looked back at Xin Qinxue, a mysterious and devilishly charming smile appeared on his lips.
"Don’t have any bad intentions, or karma might find you!"
Xin Qingxue rubbed her sore knee, gritting her teeth in hatred.
Hmph, if there’s any karma, it will co for you, you bastard!
