Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2308: Chapter 2304: Western Extremity

On the Ice Palace square.

There was originally a giant spaceship, awe-inspiring.

On the ship, there were dozens of maidens, each dressed in luxurious attire, appearing like celestial beings.

These maidens were all skilled in music and dance, and when they danced together, it was like snowflakes swirling, unparalleled in their beauty.

In front of the ship were eight Ice Bird Venerable Beasts, majestic and imposing.

Such a giant spaceship, if piloted, would undoubtedly be immensely prestigious, envied by all.

Yet now, only two young people remain, riding two small falcons, controlling the air as they depart.

Though it seems like their grandeur has diminished, there is still a sense of singularity, but those two falcons fly at an astonishing speed, crossing several ten thousand meters in the air within a few breaths, spanning a hundred thousand miles, as if ignoring the spatial barriers.

Above the Ice Palace.

Xia Yifeng’s figure appeared out of thin air, his pair of deep eyes staring at the two departing figures in the distance.

At the same time.

Swoosh... swoosh... swoosh...

Three figures appeared out of nowhere, appearing beside Xia Yifeng.

It was precisely Lu Long, Guardian Bing, and Guardian Nangong.

”What is going on?” Lu Long spoke first, ”The aura of the Palace Master suddenly disappeared from within the Ice Palace...”

Xia Yifeng waved a hand to interrupt, his eyes glanced toward the distance.

Lu Long followed his gaze, ”Is it the Palace Master and that kid from your Xia Family? What happened, is the Palace Master leaving?”

Xia Yifeng smiled, ”Could it be that a person as outstanding as the Palace Master would waste time staying in the Ice Palace forever?”

”Is there a problem?” Guardian Bing said coldly, ”Inside our Ice Emperor Palace, nothing is lacking; it’s enough for the Palace Master to continually grow safely, with a smooth journey on the Martial Arts Dao.”

”Humph.” Guardian Nangong snorted, eyes coldly glaring at Lu Long, ”You must be the old miscreant who said something inappropriate and drove the Palace Master away.”

”What does it have to do with me?” Lu Long glared.

Guardian Nangong instinctively shrank back.

Guardian Bing was not afraid at all, ”Humph, Lu Long, are you still being unreasonable?”

”Who in the Central Region doesn’t know how deeply the Palace Master and the Holy Daughter care for each other, yet you insisted on marrying your girl from the Lu Family to the Palace Master?”

”In my opinion, it’s because the Palace Master has a good temper and didn’t bother to argue with you, so chose to leave directly.”

Lu Long’s face twitched, muttering to himself, ”Could it truly be that I was forcing him?”

Beside him, Xia Yifeng watched the three arguing, only smiling silently.

The three of them quickly noticed Xia Yifeng’s smile.

”Say, Xia Yifeng, did you know the Palace Master was going to leave?” Lu Long questioned coldly.

”Certainly.” Guardian Bing spoke coldly, ”Otherwise, why would the Palace Master be followed by that kid Xia Yiming?”

Guardian Nangong said discontentedly, ”Xia Yifeng, outsiders say you, the Hidden Master, have great wisdom and are extremely cautious.”

”Now, the Palace Master’s cultivation is still low, and you arranged for palace experts to accompany him on his departure? Why did you send Xia Yiming to be a hindrance?”

”Can you bear the responsibility if something happens to the Palace Master?”

Lu Long said repeatedly, ”I’ll go chase the Palace Master, maybe I can catch up.”

”No need.” Xia Yifeng chuckled faintly, ”The Palace Master left riding the Dragon Feather Ice Falcon, you won’t catch up.”

”Moreover, even if you do catch up, with the Palace Master’s temperament, he wouldn’t want you to follow.”

”With the Palace Master’s methods, if he wants to lose you, he has many ways.”

Guardian Bing retorted, ”Don’t you send Ice Venerate Guards to protect along the way?”

Xia Yifeng shook his head, ”Yiming is the best protector.”

”Xia Yiming?” Guardian Bing sneered coldly, ”This kid can’t even compare to the Ice Barbarian from my Bing Family. You rely on him to protect the Palace Master?”

Xia Yifeng smiled, ”Since you’re asking, I shall tell you.”

”You believe the Palace Master is the first in ten thousand years to discover the secret of the Ice Palace Fourth Floor.”

”Actually, not so.”

”What?” Lu Long and the other two squinted their eyes.

Xia Yifeng proudly clasped his hands, ”Ten years ago, Yiming already unraveled the secret, entered the Ice Venerate Hall, and met the Spiritual Sense of the Ice Venerate Ancestor.”

”This is also why I have long known that the Spiritual Sense of the Ice Venerate Ancestor is still preserved in the Ice Venerate Hall.”

”However, Yiming did not gain the recognition of the Ice Venerate Ancestor, but the Palace Master did.”

Xia Yifeng looked at the three, speaking solemnly, ”Yiming has never drawn his sword before you.”

”Even when traveling outside, no one has ever seen Xia Yiming draw his sword, because those who have seen it are already dead.”

”Who are you trying to fool?” Guardian Nangong sneered.

Xia Yifeng smiled, ”About two and a half months ago, Yiming was out traveling and encountered someone from Lingyan Pavilion inviting him to join.”

Lu Long squinted, ”I know this Lingyan Pavilion, and I’ve heard that those who make it onto the Heavenly Pavilion List are unrivaled in the world.”

”This force is extremely mysterious. I remember among the Hidden Forces, there’s a Sword Cultivator at the Sixth Layer of Saint Sovereign Realm, known as the fastest sword, who only made it onto the Earth Pavilion List.”

Xia Yifeng nodded, ”Yiming was invited to join the Heavenly Pavilion List, but he refused.”

”A few days later, the Lingyan Pavilion Master personally came and tried to capture Yiming.”

”The result is...” Xia Yifeng paused, then smiled proudly, ”Yiming escaped, unharmed.”

”Is such strength enough to protect the Palace Master?”

”Alright, enough idle talk.” Xia Yifeng glanced at the three, ”The Palace Master is heading to the Demon Domain, we are surely going as well.”

”Firstly, the Ice Venerate Lineage has not emerged for years, and now that the Ice Venerate Inheritance has reappeared, the Ice Emperor Palace should also come forth.”

”Secondly, the sky is getting increasingly heavy, and soon we must guard the Palace Master closely.”

”However, there’s no rush now; it’s good to let the Palace Master explore on his own.”

”Some days later, once the Eight Palaces make their move, we should proceed.”

”You all,” Xia Yifeng said solemnly, ”you need to continue comprehending the Grandmaster’s inheritance, seize the time.”

”What about you?” Guardian Bing asked.

”Me?” Xia Yifeng’s eyes turned cold, ”I will go meet this Lingyan Pavilion Master. I want to see exactly who has the guts to attempt to abduct the most outstanding disciple of my Xia Family.”

”Moreover, I heard that Lingyan Pavilion tried to take action against the Palace Master a few days ago.”

”I indeed want to see what kind of figure they are.”

Lu Long nodded, speaking solemnly, ”That’s good, these days are also enough for me to settle scores with Supreme Tower.”

”In a few days, we’ll also go to the Demon Domain to report to the Palace Master.”

Whoosh...whoosh...whoosh...whoosh...

Above Ice Palace, the four of them departed separately.

Outside Xia Family Territory, beside the Ice Palace, is the place where the people of Ice Storm Sword Pavilion temporarily reside in Ice Emperor Palace.

Lu Long solemnly addressed everyone, ”All disciples and elders, follow me to the Ice Palace Fourth Floor for seclusion for one month, right after which you all are to proceed to the Demon Domain.”

”What about you, Clan Leader?” the crowd asked.

Lu Long spoke solemnly, ”I have other matters to attend to for the Palace Master, which you need not know.”

”Let’s go.”

...

On the third floor of Ice Palace, at the end, Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong stood with disciples and elders from two families behind them.

”All listen clearly, follow us two to the Ice Palace Fourth Floor for one month of seclusion, after which the nine elders and eight Venerable Envoys are to proceed to the Demon Domain, awaiting the Palace Master’s instructions.”

”Yes,” the crowd responded in unison.

”Man’er, Ming’er,” Guardian Bing spoke solemnly, ”Remember this, once in the Demon Domain, serve the Palace Master well. Don’t let that kid from the Xia Family overshadow you.”

”That old fox Xia Yifeng is excessively cunning; he has intentionally sent Xia Yiming to accompany the Palace Master with ulterior motives.”

”Especially you, Mei’er,” Guardian Bing said earnestly, ”The Palace Master’s attitude towards you isn’t necessarily unfavorable; you still have a chance.”

”The Palace Master is alone in the Demon Domain; as a young man, he will inevitably feel lonely. Don’t let the girl from the Lu Family find an opening.”

”Rest assured, Clan Leader,” Bing Mei’er replied with a charming smile.

...

A few hours later.

In the western region, two streaks of white light flashed across the sky.

”Tsk tsk, as expected from the Dragon Feather Ice Falcon,” Xiao Yi smiled, ”It only took a few hours to fly out of the Endless Snow Mountain, then across the northern region, and entered the western region central area.”

”This flying speed is truly astonishing.”

Summer Yiming’s face was cold and silent, after a moment, he looked with perplexity at the Dragon Feather Ice Falcon beneath Xiao Yi.

”Palace Master,” Summer Yiming frowned, ”Don’t you think the Dragon Feather Ice Falcon beneath you has, within just a few hours, grown even stronger in breath, which seems rather unusual?”

Xiao Yi nodded but also frowned, ”Indeed, but I don’t know why.”

”Forget it, no need to think too much. Let’s stop here, and we’ll proceed by Controlling the air to the western region’s end.”

Below, the Dragon Feather Ice Falcon slightly turned its head, directly looking at Xiao Yi, and spoke stiffly, ”Yes...King.”

”What?” Xiao Yi’s body trembled.

...
