The few youths in the carriage were chatting enthusiastically. They were curious about the future, longing for the immortal sect, and fawning over Li Jinnan.

Only Li Jinzhi stared blankly out the window, not joining in the conversation.

Li Jinzhi looked calm, but he was shocked. The female lead could actually speak?!

The mute female lead who had followed the male lead for a hundred years could actually speak clearly?!

According to Master Kogami's logic, the female lead that the male lead met in the ice cave was the real Ye Dieer, and the one he married was also the Ye Dieer. However, the ending was changed to Ye Cheng by the author's girlfriend. Thus, it was difficult to determine whether the original author's logic still existed.

If the logic still existed, then was the female lead who could speak really the Ye Dieer?

But how could the female lead speak? Could it be that an accident happened later?

After all, the original plot did not mention that the female lead would appear here.

If the logic collapsed because of the change in the ending, then the mute Ye Dieer they met later would be suspicious!

On the other end of the carriage, Li Jinzhi calmly sized up the girl opposite him. Her eyes were gentle, and she seemed to be very modest.

"Tsk, do you think you're so great just because you have a mutated spirit root?"

Li Jinzhi's voice was sarcastic, and he found Li Jinzhi an eyesore. "As a member of the Li family, you actually wear such an ugly jade."

The conversation in the carriage paused, and everyone's attention was on Li Jinzhi.

"I see that the jade pendant's appearance is simple and unadorned, but it's very pretty."

A girl with bright eyes spoke softly. "Moreover, he hasn't said a single word. Why do you think he's so great?"

Another girl covered her mouth and laughed. "Does Sister Die 'er like this kind of pendant?"

"Of course."

Soon, a few more youths joined in the conversation, and it became a lively conversation.

That girl had a heavenly spirit root, so there was no harm in making friends with her.

Li Jinzhi lifted his eyes to look at the girl called Die 'er. Perhaps because his gaze was too obvious, the girl turned her head, and their gazes collided.

Li Jinzhi felt a little awkward about being caught peeping, but he still nodded and smiled. Then, he turned his head away calmly.

Hello, female lead. Goodbye, female lead.

Psychological trauma was not to be underestimated. He could not gamble with something as important as his chrysanthemum.

The scenery outside the window flashed by quickly. For the first time, Li Jinzhi felt that he was in the Cultivation World and felt a sense of pride.

On this side, Li Jinzhi was full of confidence as he welcomed his immortal journey. On the other side, Ye Cheng was in trouble.

Hu Sisi and the servants broke down the door of the small courtyard, and a large group of people surrounded the courtyard noisily.

"Creak." The door to the inner room slowly opened, and a handsome young man walked out with an indifferent expression.

"Who, who are you!" Hu Sisi was stunned. Her face reddened as she shouted, "Who are you!

Why are you in Cousin Jingzhi's room?! "

"I am Young Master Jingzhi's personal servant." The young man frowned. Looking at the large group of people in the courtyard, he knew that they did not come with good intentions.

"Hmph!

How come I didn't know that Cousin Jingzhi had a servant with a face like yours? "

Hu Sisi was deliberately looking for trouble today. Of course, she recognized the person in front of her. Although he was not as thin as he was a month ago, his slanted eyebrows could not be faked. "Don't tell me you're a thief who sneaked into Cousin's room while he was out cultivating!"

Hu Sisi hated this person to the core. It was this person who caused her to lose all her face!

Previously, she did not drown Li Jinzhi, causing her to lose her aunt's trust and causing her to be unable to participate in this year's immortal sect test.

Later, because of his existence, she did not get credit for saving Li Jinzhi's life and was even reprimanded by her aunt!

If Li Jinzhi had always been an unfavored concubine's son, it would have been fine. However, that person was found to have dual spirit roots of ice and wood.

Previously, she had embarrassed that person. When she entered the immortal sect in the future, what right would she have to ask him to take care of her?!

With the accumulation of old and new grievances, she only felt that the person in front of her was even more hateful. It was all because of him!

"Do you recognize this person?

Do we have such a servant in our residence? "

Hu Sisi looked around and saw that everyone was shaking their heads. She sneered and said, "Then that's it. Hurry up and arrest this thief!"

"You think I'm a thief just because I'm a thief?"

Ye Cheng raised his eyebrows and sneered. He took out a green jade pendant from his chest. "This is the identity jade pendant that Master gave me. It can prove my identity."

The translucent green jade was engraved with a delicate "Jin" character.

Hu Sisi was stunned. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. "A servant who took his master's identity jade pendant still says he's not a thief!

Hurry, tie him up! "She actually planned to pester him endlessly.

A large group of people rushed forward and surrounded the youth Ye Cheng. Regardless of how he struggled, several people directly lifted him up by his arms and legs.

"Let me down!

Let me go! "

Ye Cheng struggled in vain. The hatred in his heart almost burned him to ashes. He only hated himself for being incompetent, for being useless, and for being too weak!!

"You don't have to think that Cousin will avenge you. Once you enter the immortal sect, your lifespan will be endless. You will have nothing to do with the heavens or the earth.

You're just a servant. Do you really think you're indebted to him? "

Hu Sisi crossed her arms. She did not have the bearing of a virtuous lady at all. Her ugly side was completely exposed. "Come with me. I want to deal with this thief personally. There's no need to report this matter to Uncle." With that, she smiled charmingly and walked out of the courtyard.

The youth who was still struggling immediately gave up when he heard the other party's first sentence. He stared blankly at the falling snow in the sky.

From then on, they would have nothing to do with the heavens or the earth. One was a cultivator with endless immortal fate, while the other was a mortal who could be bullied like an ant.

Whose eyes were oozing with tears? Whose heart was covered with dust from the snow?

The group of people walked mightily to Heart Infant Lake. Hu Sisi ordered people to dig through the ice lake.

"You ruined my plans here and saved that person. There's a cause and effect. You won't die in vain today."

She turned to the two servants and said, "Tie up his arms and legs. Hang a large rock on his body and throw it down."

"Yes." The two servants cupped their fists and smiled obsequiously.

When Ye Cheng was dragged out of the house, he was only wearing an inner garment. When he reached the surface of the lake, he was already frozen stiff. When he heard the other party's words, his eyes widened. "Last time, it was you who deliberately lured him here and pushed him down!"

"Hmph, so what if I did? If you hadn't interfered, how could I not even be able to participate in this test!"

Seeing the other party's ferocious expression, Hu Sisi took half a step back and said angrily, "Hurry up and tie him up!"

Ye Cheng gripped the jade pendant with the word "Jin" in his frozen hand. He gritted his teeth and glared at the woman.

His body was quickly tied up tightly. Several people kicked him and he rolled down the pitch-black ice cave.

The cold water instantly invaded his senses. The air in his lungs was quickly depleted. He felt his body stiffen and his head grow heavier.

His limbs were tightly bound. He could only squirm and struggle in vain.

Unexpectedly, the water under the ice was warmer than above. He gripped the jade pendant that person had left behind tightly in his slightly warm hand.

Could he still meet her again?

He pursed his lips tightly to prevent the water from flowing in. Scenes of the past flooded his mind.

The hardships and helplessness when he was young. His mother's abuse. His blood feud.

Was this a warning from his mother?

Warning him to forget his hatred. Warning him to indulge in sweet dreams. Warning him to give up on killing his enemy.

Would that person be sad?

Would it be like what that woman said? Would she step onto the path of immortality? Heaven and earth, no longer have anything to do with each other.

Then, forget about me.

Being dragged down by the boulder, the youth's dim black eyes suddenly turned dark red. His teeth made a strange creaking sound.

So hateful, so hateful!

If only he was stronger and had power, he wouldn't be so helpless!

He wouldn't be trampled into the dust without being able to save himself!

His thirst for power roared!

He didn't even crave power so much when his mother was killed by that person!

Power!

Power!

The glimmer of the ice cave grew farther and farther away. The speed of sinking increased. Finally, only black water and white bubbles were left.

The unconscious youth didn't see his body being swallowed by the light at the bottom of the lake.

。

Sitting in the carriage, Li Jinzhi had been feeling uneasy since just now. The carriage was warm with frost and snow, but his hands and feet were cold.

"Junior Brother, Junior Brother?" The immortal master surnamed Ren nudged Li Jinzhi and asked with a frown, "Junior Brother, are you feeling unwell?"

Li Jinzhi suddenly came back to his senses. He found that the Spirit Qi in his dantian was in disorder. "I'm fine. Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Ren."

"I noticed that your Spirit Qi is leaking. Cultivators need to maintain a calm state of mind. Is there something on your mind?" Immortal Master Ren was full of concern.

"Oh, you haven't even entered the sect, but you're already trying to rope people in. You call me Junior Brother so affectionately."

The immortal master who tested the Spirit Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "Could it be that your Master Hua Ming is recruiting new disciples?"

The other new disciples on the other side also stopped talking and turned their heads to look over.

Immortal Master Ren calmly retracted his hand and said embarrassedly, "I'm just concerned about my fellow disciples. Senior Brother, why are you thinking so much?"

Li Jinzhi lost interest after hearing a few words. He closed his eyes and began to cultivate. Spirit Qi flowed slowly along his meridians, pacifying the chaotic Spirit Qi in his dantian.

However, the palpitations he felt just now strangely disappeared. Perhaps it was really because his realm was unstable. With that thought, Li Jinzhi threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind and focused on meditating to organize his Spirit Qi.

After about half an hour, the sound of the carriage breaking through the air gradually stopped. The carriage seemed to have landed on the ground.

Li Jinzhi opened his eyes and looked out of the window. He saw that the carriage had stopped on a huge piece of ice. At the end of the ice, there was an ice palace with ice glazed and jade tiles. The cold air was awe-inspiring.

"We've arrived. Everyone, please get off the carriage."

The leading disciple got off the carriage first. After the few of them filed out, the carriage shrunk and transformed into a palm-sized jade horse. It was actually a flying Dharma artifact.

"Please follow me. The Elder is already waiting in the hall." The leading disciple put away the Dharma artifact and turned to stride towards the ice palace after speaking in a low voice.

Senior Brother Ren, who was following behind him, explained in a low voice, "This is the Ice Palace Hall of our Ice Palace Hall. It's used for official business. Don't be nervous when you see the Elder later. The main thing is that the Heavenly Spirit Root has appeared this time and the sect has attached great importance to it. In the past, we wouldn't have troubled the Elder with such matters."

"Yes." The few of them replied in unison.

Li Jinzhi followed behind with lowered eyes. He recalled the scene when the male lead came to the Ice Palace Hall.

Because Li Jinzhi's Spirit Root had not been tested, the carriage ride was slow and he was ridiculed. However, one day, a young girl with a Spirit Root tried to help him out of trouble. However, her brother was jealous and insulted her character in the hall. Thus, the Elder placed her in the outer sect. The outer sect had many errands and she had little time to cultivate.

The author did not directly write the girl's name. At that time, many people were curious. Now, it seemed that the girl should be the female lead, Ye Dieer, right?

However, a Heavenly Spirit Root.

Li Jinzhi frowned. He had some thoughts in his mind.

Of course, he knew that it was not easy to stand out. It was good to be a personal disciple, but there were also many restrictions.

The male lead usually wandered around and tried his best to disguise himself as a pig to eat the tiger. He could kill people without being restrained. He could come and go freely without any restrictions!

His heart calmed down, but he did not show it on his face. When he entered the Ice Palace Hall, he saw a man in a snow-white robe standing there. He had fine hair and a jade-like face. He was very handsome.

"Eh?

Senior Brother Qing Mu?

Why are you waiting here? "The leading disciple looked around." Where's Master? "

"Oh, you're back too early. Master still has a furnace of pills that he hasn't opened yet, so he sent me here."

The voice of the man called Qing Mu was crisp and clear, giving people a feeling of openness. His eyes seemed to sweep across everyone present. "Are these the new disciples who joined the sect this time?

Oh well, you should have tested your Spirit Root. Let me take a look first. "

Li Jinzhi's heart skipped a beat. In the original novel, Elder Ming Yang had appeared. However, this person named Qing Mu seemed to be a cannon fodder who had a crush on the female lead?

“”

The male lead thought generously, Brother, I'll let you have the female lead. You'll take care of the chrysanthemum.

However, this plot was getting more and more out of hand. What if the butterfly effect was too much and he became cannon fodder?

Li Jinzhi was in a dilemma. On the other side, Qing Mu had already picked up the jade slip and placed it on his forehead. After a moment, he took it down. "I'll take the girl with the Heavenly Spirit Root. Master was worried that no one would inherit his Heavenly Fire Technique." He actually directly named them. "The rest will be distributed according to your plan."

"That won't do." A figure hurriedly flew in from outside the main hall. "Why should the Heavenly Spirit Root be given to your Ming Yang Peak?

Our Hua Ming Peak naturally has to have a hand in it too. "A coquettish female voice came from the sky.

Everyone in the hall looked up and saw a pure gold light break through the sky. When the light faded, a young girl with white hair and a youthful face appeared.

"Elder Hua Ming."

When the disciples saw the person who came, they respectfully bowed and greeted her. Only that Senior Brother Ren called out "Master". He must have sent a message to his master.

The young girl didn't pay attention to others. She glanced at everyone and asked directly, "Who has the Heavenly Spirit Root?"

Ye Dieer bowed his head and walked out respectfully. "Greetings, Elder Hua Ming. I'm Ye Dieer, a Heavenly Fire Spirit Root." His voice was clear and pleasant, neither arrogant nor impatient.

Elder Hua Ming's eyes lit up. "I'm a Golden Elixir cultivator from Hua Ming Peak. Are you willing to be my personal disciple?"

Although he was asking for the other party's opinion, his tone was very firm. "That old fellow from Ming Yang Peak is not sincere at all. I came out of seclusion specially to accept a disciple. What do you think?"

Qing Mu saw that Hua Ming was slandering her master and became anxious. "Master's Heavenly Essence Pill is at a critical moment. Uncle-Master, don't distort right and wrong like this!"

She then looked at Ye Dieer and frowned. "Junior Sister, my master is proficient in fire-attribute cultivation techniques. His fire-attribute divine abilities are abnormally powerful."

Everyone then understood that the two families were fighting over the Heavenly Spirit Root.

Ye Dieer was also an opinionated person. He looked down and asked, "May I know what kind of cultivation technique Elder Hua Ming is practicing?"

"Naturally, it's also fire-attribute. Otherwise, do you think I would run over as soon as I heard that there was a child with a Heavenly Fire Spirit Root?"

Elder Hua Ming snorted and threw out a fire-attribute Dharma artifact with one hand. Waves of heat rushed over, making one feel as if one had fallen into a fiery pit.

Li Jinzhi suddenly took a step back. The fire-attribute cultivation technique and the Golden Elixir elder's suppression caused the ice spiritual force in his body to stagnate. His body also felt as if it had fallen into a cloud of mist, unable to step on the ground.

This was just a Dharma artifact!

Gritting his teeth and refusing to fall, Li Jinzhi looked around. Li Jintang had already been forced to kneel by the suppression. His other three elder brothers also looked pained. The others weren't any better.

"Uncle-Master." Qing Mu gritted her teeth and said, "Uncle-Master, are you forcing Junior Sister to become your disciple?"

"Ye Dieer is willing to become Elder Hua Ming's disciple." After the young girl finished speaking, she bowed gracefully. "Master."

Hua Ming didn't expect the little girl to be so straightforward. After all, if he chose her, he would more or less offend Ming Yang.

Qing Mu didn't have her master to rely on, so she naturally didn't interrupt. She only looked at the people around her. "Well, it seems that Master and this girl are not fated.

Ye Miner, who has the Wood and Fire Dual Spirit Roots, and Gu Feng, who has the Fire and Earth Dual Spirit Roots, come with me. "After saying that, she didn't want to stay any longer and left with her people.

After Elder Hua Ming received his disciple, he turned to Disciple Ren and said, "Luckily, you informed us. Otherwise, such good seedlings would have been monopolized by that old fellow Ming Yang!

Let's go. "

After saying that, a beam of light exploded and swept Ye Dieer and Disciple Ren away, leaving the few people in the hall looking at each other in dismay.

"Ahem, Junior Brothers, you don't have to be jealous of them. If you do well in the future, you will naturally be noticed by the other elders."

The leading senior brother took out two storage bags and handed them to Li Jinzhi and the eldest son of the Li Family, Li Jinqi. "This is the map of the inner sect and the location of your respective cave abodes. There is also a set of inner sect disciple robes and a disciple manual. An inner sect disciple waist token can be used after dripping blood on it to recognize you as its master."

Li Jinzhi looked down and took the storage bags, bowing in acknowledgment.

"The two of you can go and settle down first." He waved his hand to chase them away.

Li Jinzhi naturally didn't object and turned to leave. On the other hand, the eldest son of the Li Family retreated to the side, presumably to wait for his younger brother.

After leaving the hall, Li Jinzhi looked at the towering ice walls on all sides and felt troubled.

With a simple sentence, he turned into a conveyance light and flew away. Who could tell him how to transform into a conveyance light?

Could it be that he had to compress Spirit Qi into a virtual fuel tank and simulate himself as a rocket launcher?

Then …
