Chapter 2149: Crisis of the Ice Goddess Hall
Jian Chen was just far too concerned for his sister. As soon as he heard Shui Yunlan mention that she had come to the Neptunean Divine Palace for her sister, he immediately jumped to the conclusion that an accident had happened to his sister, or she was hurt.
A gleam of light flashed through Shui Yunlan’s cold eyes when she saw Jian Chen react so violently. She said, “Don’t worry, your sister is fine. She’s in a very safe place.”
Jian Chen immediately became relieved when he heard that his sister was fine. He also gradually calmed down. He stared at Shui Yunlan as his eyes flickered with uncertainty, and he said coldly, “You said you came to the Neptunean Divine Palace all for my sister. I want to know the reason.”
Shui Yunlan fell silent. She looked at Jian Chen with her cold, emotionless eyes as light flickered in them slightly. Clearly, she was hesitating.
Jian Chen could tell that Shui Yunlan was hesitating with a single glance, so he said, “If you don’t want to tell me the truth, you won’t be getting anything from me. You are very powerful, but making me stay is still difficult. As a result, if you plan on taking something from me forcefully, you better give up on that thought.”
As if Shui Yunlan could see how confident Jian Chen was, she sighed secretly. In the next moment, she felt helpless.
Never would she have thought that the tiny figure from the Tian Yuan Continent who was even less than an ant back then would be bold enough to stand before her today and threaten her fearlessly. As she sighed in surprise, she also found it rather difficult to accept.
After a while of silence, Shui Yunlan still ended up talking. She said with her cold voice that never changed, “Your sister is the Snow Goddess of the Ice Goddess Hall. She died during a war in the past, but fortunately, her soul was not destroyed, so she was reincarnated with a sliver of her soul. The great Ice Goddess used her own bloodline as a medium and predicted that her majesty would be reincarnated in a lower world, and she correctly found which world it was. That was why I came to the Tian Yuan Continent under orders and took up the mission of finding her majesty.”
“I waited on the Tian Yuan Continent for over three million years before finally waiting for her majesty to be reincarnated. Originally, I wanted to leave the Tian Yuan Continent with her majesty once her strength had reached a certain level and directly return to the Ice Goddess Hall of the Saints’ World. However, Mo Tianyun, who had vanished long ago from the Tian Yuan Continent, reappeared at that time…”
Mixed feelings filled Shui Yunlan’s eyes when she mentioned Mo Tianyun.
Jian Chen was also surprised when he heard the name Mo Tianyun. He could not help but think about what he saw with Shangguan Mu’er when they discovered the Yinyang Saint Rock. At that time, they had obtained a dual cultivation method from Mo Tianyun, which allowed them to grasp the balancing of yin and yang. As a result, he was able to absorb the energy of the Yinyang Saint Rock successfully with Shangguan Mu’er, giving him great strength.
But at that time, they had only encountered one of Mo Tianyun’s clones. It was not his true body.
Shui Yunlan continued, “Mo Tianyun brought me news from the Saints’ World. I learnt that something had happened to the Ice Goddess Hall in the Saints’ World from him. Another one of the four great protectors, Wu Han, actually colluded with Nan Potian of the Moon God Hall and gained control of the Ice Goddess Hall, and she’s targeting the Ice Goddess. At the very beginning, I had my doubts about this matter. I did not believe it at all. However, it was also because of Mo Tianyun’s warning that I became cautious. When I brought her majesty back to the Saints’ World, I did not return to the Ice Goddess Hall rashly. Instead, I disguised myself and investigated the Ice Goddess Hall’s situation.”
When she reached there, Shui Yunlan could not help but tremble slightly. Fury rose up in her chest as her ice-cold eyes also became grim. She said coldly, “I never dared to believe that Mo Tianyun’s news would be true. However, Nan Potian of the Moon God Hall really did collude with Wu Han and had gained control of the Ice Goddess Hall. Even the elders of the Ice Goddess Hall suffered from their hands.”
“The Ice Goddess Hall has a tremendous amount of cultivation resources and a land of cultivation that is extremely suitable for her majesty to recover her cultivation. Originally, I only needed to take her majesty back to the Ice Goddess Hall, and her cultivation would completely recover before long with all the resources that the Ice Goddess Hall could offer. However, the Ice Goddess Hall faces a crisis right now, so I cannot take her majesty back, and I have to remain hidden, without exposing ourselves.”
“We don’t have enough divine crystals and heavenly resources, or any protection from major organisations, and we have to remain hidden at all times to avoid Wu Han and Nan Potian discovering our whereabouts. It’s almost impossible for her majesty to recover under these circumstances.”
Shui Yunlan was gloomy. There was a hint of bitterness in her icy-cold voice. She said, “The reason why I came to the Neptunean Divine Palace this time was not for the legacies. My primary reason was only to collect some cultivation resources so that I could assist her majesty in recovering. As a result, when I saw someone gain the recognition of a Grand Prime’s legacy, I assisted him without any hesitation, only in hopes of obtaining the cultivation resources that the Grand Prime has left behind. Her majesty is in urgent need of cultivation resources right now…”
After learning everything from Shui Yunlan, Jian Chen fell into silent thought. He was not surprised about his sister’s identity because he had learnt that his sister was the reincarnation of someone powerful back on the Tian Yuan Continent. However, he did not care about this. The concern and affection his sister had shown him during his youth had already been engraved in his heart. As a result, no matter who his sister really was, it would never change her position in his heart.
However, he had never thought that his sister would encounter such difficulties in the Saints’ World. It made his heart ache. It was not a good feeling.
“What are Nan Potian and Wu Han’s current level of cultivation?” Jian Chen’s eyes turned cold slightly as he asked sternly.
He had heard about Nan Potian from fairy Hao Yue and learnt his cultivation from fairy Hao Yue. However, that was his cultivation several hundred thousand years ago.
“Nan Potian is a peak Chaotic Prime. It’s said that he’s only a step away from Grand Prime. As for Wu Han, she’s an Infinite Prime. With her talent, she has probably reached the peak of Infinite Prime after so much time, or maybe even Chaotic Prime,” Shui Yunlan replied seriously. Not only was Shui Yunlan the most talented out of the four protectors, but she also used to be the most powerful. However, the time she spent on the Tian Yuan Continent had delayed her progress.
“The Ice Goddess is one of the seven Grand Exalts, so how can Nan Potian and Wu Han gain control of the Ice Goddess Hall so easily?” Jian Chen asked in doubt. Grand Exalts were expert who had truly reached the apex of Grand Prime. They were sovereigns of the world, existences like the laws of the world itself. Even across the Saints’ World, there were only a limited number of them, so how could the Ice Goddess be forced to take a passive stance against a Chaotic Prime and an Infinite Prime?
“The Ice Goddess Hall must be a god artifact of impressive quality, right? Doesn’t it have an artifact spirit as a god artifact?” Jian Chen followed up.
A cold light flickered through Shui Yunlan’s eyes. She replied frigidly, “You’re right. Not only is the Ice Goddess Hall the name of an organisation, but it’s also a powerful god artifact personally forged by the Ice Goddess. It’s even more powerful than the Neptunean Divine Palace. As long as it’s in the Ice Goddess Hall, just the artifact spirit’s control over the structure would be more and enough to kill both Nan Potian and Wu Han. However, the Ice Goddess Hall has still become occupied by the enemy. What does that mean? It means that there’s someone else behind Nan Potian and Wu Han.”
Shui Yunlan became extremely stern, “Moreover, this person must be extremely powerful, enough to suppress the artifact spirit of the divine hall. The reason why Nan Potian and Wu Han were bold enough to turn against the Ice Goddess is extremely likely due to the support of this person.”
