The world reincarnates, each time a new talent!

83: Tianshan Tonglao: Bitch, you are too happy too early!”Where is she?”

Li Qiushui’s eyes showed excitement.

”Follow me.”

Ning Yuan turned around and led Li Qiushui to the ice cellar beneath the palace.

”Here?”

Li Qiushui was surprised at first, then sneered, ”That Bitch is really smart. The most dangerous place is the safest place. She must have snuck in from here back then...”

Li Qiushui’s hand involuntarily touched the scar on her face, revealing a chilling sneer, ”What she left me back then, I will repay a hundredfold today.”

With that, Li Qiushui turned to Ning Yuan, ”Can you tell me why you chose this?”

Clearly, Li Qiushui had not fully believed Ning Yuan’s words yet.

Worried about a trap, she did not enter immediately.

”Aunt, you are indeed right. Both for public and private reasons, our relationship should be closer. Moreover, Tóng Lǎo is currently injured and has not recovered her Internal Skill. Compared to dealing with you, Aunt, dealing with Tóng Lǎo is naturally simpler and easier. And if Tóng Lǎo is killed, Lingjiu Palace will also be mine.”

Ning Yuan clenched his fists, vowing confidently.

”Hahahaha!”

Upon hearing this, Li Qiushui immediately burst into laughter, ”Good, well said, Murong Fu, you are indeed a smart person, and you have made the correct choice.”

”Not only that, I have one more request that I need you, Aunt, to agree to.”

Ning Yuan suddenly added.

”What request? As long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you.”

Li Qiushui raised her head and said confidently.

”I hope you, Aunt, can torment Tianshan Child Granny, but before you kill her, you must inform me first.”

Ning Yuan said with a serious expression.

”Oh?”

Li Qiushui raised an eyebrow, looking at Ning Yuan and asking, ”What do you want to do?”

Ning Yuan revealed a slight smile, ”Tianshan Child Granny’s nearly ninety years of Internal Skill, rather than wasting it, would be better used to help me.”

Li Qiushui’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this. After looking at Ning Yuan for a moment, she chuckled softly, her tone enigmatic, ”You certainly play a good game. After you take her Internal Skill, are you planning to take mine as well?”

Li Qiushui gazed at Ning Yuan, asking seemingly casually.

”Aunt, you worry too much.”

Ning Yuan chuckled, ”Whether it’s your status, Aunt, or your help to me, your living has significantly greater value to me.”

”You’re quite direct.”

Li Qiushui snorted, not knowing whether she believed him or not. She nodded forward, gesturing, ”Then lead the way.”

”Whatever your goal, it will feel good to exact this revenge myself. And I indeed don’t want her to die so easily. I still want to torment her thoroughly.”

”Once I’ve tormented her enough, I’ll leave her half-dead and hand her over to you to deal with.”

Li Qiushui raised her head, speaking with self-satisfaction.

But she gestured for Ning Yuan to walk in front, clearly still holding back and not fully trusting him.

”Then it’s settled.”

Ning Yuan did not hesitate, directly pushed open the cellar door, and walked in first.

Li Qiushui watched Ning Yuan walk for a while and, seeing no abnormalities, finally walked in boldly.

Inside the ice cellar, the cold was bone-chilling.

However, both of them possessed profound Internal Skill and were unafraid of the severe cold.

The walls on both sides were stacked with ice blocks, crystal clear.

Li Qiushui walked slowly. After walking for a long time and still not seeing anyone, she couldn’t help but look at Ning Yuan’s back in front and ask, ”Where is that Bitch?”

”She is in the ice chamber ahead, Aunt. You will see her once you enter.”

Ning Yuan looked forward and said.

”Hmph.”

Li Qiushui snorted lightly, bypassed Ning Yuan, and quickened her pace.

Soon, she passed stack after stack of ice blocks, piled as high as a person, and finally, her vision widened as she entered a spacious ice chamber.

In the center of the ice chamber, a girl of eight or nine years old was sitting cross-legged on an ice platform, Cultivating.

”Senior Sister, you are truly clever to hide beneath my imperial palace. No wonder I couldn’t find you for so many years.”

Li Qiushui looked at Tianshan Child Granny on the ice platform and suddenly sneered.

Tianshan Child Granny heard the movement and immediately opened her eyes. Upon seeing Li Qiushui, her small face changed slightly, ”It’s you, Bitch! How did you find this place?”

”Of course, someone brought me here.”

Li Qiushui stepped aside, revealing Ning Yuan behind her.

Upon seeing Ning Yuan, Tianshan Child Granny was filled with shock and anger, ”You actually betrayed me and colluded with this Bitch.”

”Tóng Lǎo, you exaggerate. It’s just that Aunt’s daughter is my Aunt, so I have no choice but to stand on her side.”

Ning Yuan had an embarrassed expression.

”Hahahahaha!”

Li Qiushui threw her head back and laughed, ”Bitch, now you know who’s more powerful, don’t you? Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. I’m going to chop off your limbs and torment you properly, to repay you a hundredfold for the pain you inflicted on me back then—Pfft...”

Before Li Qiushui could finish her words, she was suddenly struck hard in the back. Her body lurched forward, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then, with a face full of shock and anger, she turned her head to look at Ning Yuan, ”You...”

”Aunt, I’m sorry, this was actually a trap.”

Ning Yuan smiled slightly and said.

”Hahahahaha! Bitch, you rejoiced too soon.”

Tianshan Child Granny stood on the ice platform, hands on her hips, laughing loudly, ”Did you really think everything would go so smoothly? This was all within my calculations. You fell into the trap.”

”Why?”

Li Qiushui’s face was filled with shock and anger. She clutched her chest, staring at Ning Yuan in disbelief.

She had been extremely cautious, yet she still ended up being tricked.

But she couldn’t understand why the other party would choose to cooperate with Tianshan Child Granny, when she could offer more, and their relationship should have been closer.

Ning Yuan looked at Tianshan Child Granny, who chuckled, ”My good Junior Sister, you also have this day.”

”But today isn’t about me dealing with you, Murong Fu. I’ll leave her to you, but remember to leave her alive. I haven’t had my fill of revenge yet!”

Tianshan Child Granny finished speaking and turned to leave the secret chamber.

Li Qiushui’s face was filled with shock and anger, glaring at Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan then slowly spoke, ”Aunt, aren’t you curious why a Western Xia Imperial Son-in-Law isn’t enough for me? Aren’t you curious what I truly want?”

”What do you want? If Imperial Son-in-Law isn’t enough, I can arrange for you to become a Grand General of Western Xia!”

Li Qiushui immediately said.

At this moment, she was severely injured by a sneak attack, trapped in a narrow environment with no retreat, unable to escape, and wounded. She could only humble herself and stall for time.

Ning Yuan just shook his head.

”Not enough? Then I’ll make you a king, a King with the Same Rank as the Emperor!”

Li Qiushui said again.

But Ning Yuan still shook his head.

Li Qiushui showed anger, ”What exactly do you want?”

”Whether it’s being an Imperial Son-in-Law or a king, in the end, it’s still living under someone else’s roof.”

Ning Yuan shook his head regretfully and continued, ”Instead of being an Imperial Son-in-Law, it’s better to directly take down the Empress Dowager from the source. Then the entire Western Xia wouldn’t all be mine?”

”What?”

Li Qiushui was stunned for a moment, then reacted, her face filled with shock and anger, ”What nonsense are you talking about?”

”Does Aunt think there’s a better way?”

Ning Yuan smiled slightly, ”This is what I believe to be the most reliable solution.”

”Presumptuous!”

Li Qiushui angrily rebuked, ”Have you forgotten my identity? How dare you harbor such treasonous thoughts, you, you...”

Li Qiushui pointed at Ning Yuan, trembling with anger.

Ning Yuan, however, had a calm expression.

”Why does Aunt have to act like a chaste and virtuous woman? Back then, to get revenge for Wu Yazi’s coldness towards you, you openly kept male companions, and then you secretly dallied with Wu Yazi’s second Disciple, Ding Chunqiu. You’ve done many things that go against human ethics, and I never saw you feel that you were being treasonous.”

Ning Yuan said calmly.

This made Li Qiushui’s face turn ugly; for a moment, she was speechless.

Because what the other party said was true. What she had done back then, if others didn’t know, then so be it. But now, to be reminded of it to her face, it indeed made it difficult for her to be righteous.

Li Qiushui’s expression changed again and again, her eyes darted around, and she suddenly flashed towards Ning Yuan—towards the passage behind him.

”Aunt, I specifically led you here to prevent you from escaping. Do you think you have a chance?”

Ning Yuan chuckled. His Lingbo Microstep had also long since reached Major Achievement, and in an instant, he appeared before Li Qiushui.

”You’re courting death!”

Li Qiushui suppressed her internal injuries, activated Xiao Wu Xiang Skill, and swept her sleeve.

Bang!

Ning Yuan raised a finger, unleashing a Sword Qi that tore through Li Qiushui’s wide sleeve. Then, several Sword Qi crisscrossed, forcing Li Qiushui to flip backward.

The next moment, Ning Yuan followed closely, reaching out to grab Li Qiushui.

”Get lost!”

Li Qiushui knew the terror of Ning Yuan’s Bei Ming Divine Skill, so she dared not touch Ning Yuan. As she rebuked, a palm force struck Ning Yuan’s chest.

Ning Yuan did not dodge at all. The White Rainbow Palm Force rebounded as soon as it approached.

The distance between them was too close. Li Qiushui had no time to react and was injured by her own palm force, staggering back several steps again, vomiting blood.

”Murong Fu!”

Li Qiushui gritted her teeth. As the two fought, ice blocks shattered, and the entire cellar trembled. However, Li Qiushui was forced into a corner, completely unable to escape.

As Ning Yuan’s hand grabbed Li Qiushui’s wrist, Li Qiushui suddenly froze.

But after waiting for a moment, she didn’t feel her Internal Skill draining away. Li Qiushui couldn’t help but look at Ning Yuan and angrily asked, ”Why aren’t you absorbing it?”

”You and that Bitch colluded, wasn’t it just to get my Internal Skill?”

”Aunt, you misunderstand. I said that compared to your Internal Skill, I care more about you as a person.”

Ning Yuan suddenly reached out and tore off the snow-white veil from Li Qiushui’s face.

Li Qiushui’s face immediately changed drastically. She raised her hand to cover her face, angrily rebuking, ”Don’t look at my face.”

Ever since Tianshan Child Granny disfigured her, she had tried every method and medicine, but could not restore the scars on her face. Therefore, for all these years, she had met people from behind a gauze curtain, and when going out, she used a disguised fake leather (fake skin) to cover it, but it was never as natural as her own face.

Therefore, she still wore a veil, precisely because she didn’t want anyone to see the abnormality on her face.

Now that Ning Yuan had directly torn off her veil, Li Qiushui was naturally surprised, angry, and afraid.

For a woman who loves beauty, especially a peerless beauty who prides herself on her looks, the most intolerable thing is to have flaws on her face.

She was even more unwilling to be seen in her ugly state.
