Chapter 3227 Lesser Fullness (Dead Hand)
Chapter 3227 Lesser Fullness (Dead Hand)
Hu Xiaoman looked in the direction she pointed and indeed saw that the ice sculpture was dressed in the clothes of a Kunlun Mountain disciple.
And around this ice sculpture, countless people are sealed away.
There were disciples from other sects and wandering cultivators. Upon closer inspection, the ice sculptures almost filled the entire ice cave, creating a shocking sight.
Ning Shuang quickly took out an extremely thick fox fur cloak from her storage ring and wrapped it around herself, but the cold was still biting.
She then took out several more warm items and layered them on her body before she could recover a little.
As she adjusted the magical artifact, she said in a trembling voice, "Junior Sister, these people must have all come for the Ten Thousand Year Yin Marrow, but... but they've all been sealed here!"
"Are they still alive?"
Hu Xiaoman slowly shook her head: "There's no sign of life anymore."
"The Ice Demon froze them here, probably to keep the 'ingredients' fresh, so that he can take one out whenever he gets hungry."
Ning Shuang's face instantly turned deathly pale, and her voice trembled with tears: "Junior Sister, will the Ice Demon turn us into ice sculptures like this too?"
“Yes, we will.” Hu Xiaoman nodded: “If we can’t beat him, we’ll become one of these ice sculptures sooner or later.”
"No, it won't happen." A gentle voice rang out at the right time.
Zhou Wenlun stepped forward and stood in front of Hu Xiaoman, his voice gentle: "Fiancée, with me here, I will never let anything happen to you."
He flicked a wisp of soft white light from his fingertip, which enveloped Hu Xiaoman like a light veil.
Hu Xiaoman, whose hands and feet were freezing cold, was instantly enveloped in warmth, and the biting chill vanished.
Ning Shuang stared wide-eyed: "Young Master Zhou, I'm cold too!"
Zhou Wenlun smiled gently, his gaze sweeping over the layers of magical artifacts on Ning Shuang's body: "Fifth Senior Sister is wearing so many, she must not be cold."
Ning Shuang's face fell instantly, and she puffed out her cheeks as she cried out, "Young Master Zhou, it's cold, it's freezing!"
Seeing that Zhou Wenlun didn't react, she immediately put on a pitiful look, drooping her head: "Never mind, no one cares about me anyway."
She slowly turned around, leaving behind a defiant remark: "Don't call me Fifth Senior Sister anymore!"
"I don't have a junior brother like you!"
Zhou Wenlun: "..."
He shook his head and chuckled. This fifth senior sister was really adorably childlike.
Life has become so much more joyful!
She raised her hand and flicked out a wisp of spiritual light, which transformed into a protective shield that enveloped the frost within.
A wave of warmth instantly enveloped her, and Ning Shuang immediately beamed with joy, turning around playfully: "Oh dear, I'm so sorry to trouble Young Master Zhou!"
"You can call me Fifth Senior Sister as many times as you want from now on."
As she spoke, she deftly stored all the warm items she carried into her storage ring, her movements swift and decisive.
Zhou Wenlun nodded, a gentle smile always on his lips.
Hu Xiaoman rolled her eyes.
"This ice cave is so big, let's find the exit first!"
Ning Shuang quickly nodded in agreement.
But Zhou Wenlun suddenly stepped forward and blocked Hu Xiaoman's way.
His gentle face was now tinged with a hint of grievance, and his tone was sour, filled with jealousy: "Fiancée, you were so intimate with that Ice Demon just now, going through the wedding ceremony and wanting to consummate the marriage."
"When I came in just now, I saw you...you were kissing?"
Hu Xiaoman rolled her eyes again, annoyed. "Young Master Zhou, can't you use your brain?"
"That Ice Demon is so powerful, I can't beat him. I'm using my beauty to seduce him, do you understand?"
"You've ruined everything!"
"Oh? A honey trap, huh?" Zhou Wenlun nodded with a smile, the smile in his eyes becoming increasingly meaningful.
He leaned closer, his warm breath brushing against Hu Xiaoman's ear, and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear: "But my fiancée acted so convincingly that I almost believed it myself."
"Since your acting is so good, why not give me a leading role?"
"Let this young master broaden his horizons?"
"After all, this young master now possesses not only half a piece of ten-thousand-year-old Yin Marrow, but also the Heavenly Demon Bone."
The warm breath, carrying a faint sandalwood scent, made Hu Xiaoman's ears instantly burn and raised a layer of fine goosebumps.
She immediately stepped back, moving away from the person!
What's going on in this person's head?
Why are you still thinking about these things at a time like this!
"Snapped!"
A sharp slap suddenly rang out, interrupting their whispers.
Ning Shuang couldn't stand it any longer. She slapped Zhou Wenlun on the back of the head, stood with her hands on her hips, and glared at him with wide eyes: "Young Master Zhou, what time is it and you're still jealous!"
"Let's figure out a way to get out of here as soon as possible!"
"That Ice Demon will definitely catch up soon!"
Being beaten by her was a privilege reserved for the fourth senior brother.
They're practically frozen solid right now, and this person is still whining and being jealous, completely oblivious to the urgency of the situation!
Ning Shuang acted immediately in her haste!
After she finished, Ning Shuang regretted it!
The person in front of me is not my fourth senior brother, but someone who can obtain the Heavenly Demon Bone by himself.
The strength is unfathomable!
Ning Shuang immediately took several steps back, waving her hands and saying, "No, I'm sorry."
"That ruthless guy, why did he hit someone?!"
"hey-hey!"
Hu Xiaoman was stunned by the sudden slap from her fifth senior sister.
Fifth Senior Sister is really domineering; she dares to hit anyone.
Zhou Wenlun's gentle smile cracked.
"Roar--!"
Ning Shuang handed over the hand that had hit Zhou Wenlun, closed her eyes, and said, "Dead hand, chop it off!"
As soon as Ning Shuang finished speaking, a roar filled with endless anger and killing intent came from the entrance of the passage the three of them had come from, shaking the entire ice cave and causing ice shards to fall.
Immediately afterwards, a series of cracking sounds filled the air as countless sharp ice spikes surged out from the ice walls on all sides, crisscrossing and forming a dense, impenetrable net that instantly sealed off their only escape route.
The Ice Demon is coming!
He had just used brute force to interfere with the teleportation array set up by Little Peach, but he did not expect that he would send them to his real lair.
At this moment, he was determined to turn these three people into eternal ice sculptures within the ice wall!
Hu Xiaoman's expression changed slightly, and she immediately focused her consciousness into Man Zhou Shikong: "Little Peach, come out and set up the formation!"
Although the teleportation array was interfered with by the Ice Demon's power, it can definitely be used to escape with the three of them once it is repaired.
The chill here is eerily intense.
But at this moment, on the Spirit Lake that filled the entire world, the originally pink and cute little peach had already turned into a veritable "frozen peach".
Its entire body was covered in thick frost, and even the two small tender leaves on its head were stiffly sticking up, floating motionless on the water.
With a weak, tearful voice, it replied: "No... I won't go out... Master, it's too cold outside, Little Peach will freeze into ice crystals..."
Hu Xiaoman: “…”
[Hurry! If we don't get out soon, we're all going to die here!]
"No... I won't die..." Little Peach's thoughts came out intermittently.
That guy outside surnamed Zhou... he's really capable... he'll definitely have a way... Little Peach, go to sleep first... take a nap...
