Chapter 483: Chapter 456: A Deep Conversation with Qingxue

Wang Wu was about to turn into a quail.

Completely scared out of his wits.

He didn’t expect the Frost Monarch to come in person, but even more so, he didn’t expect that a Taiyi Fifth-Stage True Immortal couldn’t even withstand a single move from the Frost Monarch, immediately turning to dust.

And that Immortal Sword, ordinary as it seemed, seemed to pierce through the entire Cultivation Realm, too powerful!

Such a powerful existence, yet he once dared to flirt with her; what a crime! Now that he realized his mistake, was it too late to make amends?

With a loud thud, Wang Wu knelt immediately, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet, as if all the Evil Wind was dispelled, but he didn’t dare to look up, because he knew a pair of beautiful and terrifying eyes were watching him.

Frost Monarch, Frost Monarch, the monarch of Frost.

However, why is there no movement yet?

After a long while, Wang Wu cautiously looked up, only to see Qingxue standing there, but the recently arrived Array Master was gone?

Gone?

Phew, right, such a big figure, busy with a multitude of affairs, has no time to babble with him.

“What’s wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare? Or are you unwell? But fortunately, we’ve already found the location for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle, so we just need to build it normally afterward.”

“Huh? Your master—” Wang Wu was baffled,

“What about my master? My master is stationed at the Frost Domain and can’t leave! Also can’t come here.” Qingxue said with a giggle, seeming very happy.

“Oh, right, that new Array Master, the Array Master of Thousand Words, is amazing.”

“Naturally, alright, let’s get to work then, Array Master of Thousand Words, thank you for your hard work.” Qingxue said, waving a hand, and someone wearing Three-Defense Treasure Armor appeared.

And they could speak,

“Haha, it’s no problem, I’m just humbly skillful, it took me half a month to complete the exploration, causing Miss Qingxue to run around with me, my apologies.”

These words seemed humble, but this voice, why did it sound so familiar!

Wang Wu looked at Qingxue in horror, his scalp tingling.

Because this so-called Array Master of Thousand Words was clearly a clone made from Wang Wu’s Top-Grade Hair, but who knows what tricks Qingxue used because he couldn’t sense it at all.

“Wang Zhige, lend me a piece of your hair.” Qingxue suddenly said.

“Huh? Why!”

“We have to build a Three-Defense Fortress first, as for the Heaven and Earth Needle, that’s not urgent.”

“Oh!” Wang Wu was still in shock, so he didn’t notice the subtle change in Qingxue’s tone.

After that, he just zoned out there, while Qingxue used that piece of hair to create three Wang Wus, and in just a few minutes, they had built a Three-Defense Main Fortress, big and spacious, and safe, much better than the previous two Three-Defense Main Fortresses.

Wang Wu crawled inside and couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.

“Speaking of which, Miss Qingxue, there’s actually no need for such a good Three-Defense Fortress, you’re being extravagant, be careful your master settles accounts with you later.”

Qingxue didn’t reply, just quickly took off the Three-Defense Treasure Armor and beckoned to Wang Wu. He immediately understood and also took off the Three-Defense Treasure Armor.

“What happened earlier, keep it to yourself, remember, it never happened, and we never met Gray Eye.” Qingxue repeated at this moment.

Wang Wu deeply agreed; he was still too naive and hadn’t figured out the intricacies. The Frost Monarch had personally come and directly killed Gray Eye; this matter was actually no less significant than him killing Qin Yu.

After all, nowadays, this is a key project of the Hidden Origin Association; various bigwigs have taken action, engaging in open and covert battles, and this is not the only battlefield.

“Actually, you don’t have to be so nervous, like you’re having a guilty conscience about doing something wrong.” Qingxue suddenly laughed, not knowing what she thought of.

“Oh, Miss Qingxue, you really don’t understand, I almost got scared to death just now, and you still have the mood to laugh there.” Wang Wu said helplessly, can he not be nervous if he wants not to be nervous?

“Oh, what don’t I understand, tell me.” Qingxue seemed quite interested.

“Huh, you’re in a good mood today, unlike before where you always had a long face.” Wang Wu blinked and finally noticed something different, Qingxue’s eyes seemed to have a certain glow, a kind of not very bright but very lovely smile blooming like ripples, not very stunning, but very pleasing to the eye.

So he took a few extra glances.

“Is it nice to look at?”

“Nice!” Wang Wu responded instinctively.

Qingxue suddenly burst into silvery laughter, and after a long time, she collected herself, pointed at Wang Wu’s heart, “Your Blood Curse Celestial Punishment is gone?”

“Yes!” Wang Wu was not surprised, such a thing can’t be hidden; Qingxue being trusted by the Frost Monarch to become her special envoy surely means her cultivation realm is not low, at least not inferior to Xiong Wang Shou.

Otherwise, why had she specifically instructed before that without his permission, he should not take off the Three-Defense Treasure Armor?

“Did you break through on your own?”

“Yes, but I also borrowed a bit of other power.” Wang Wu spoke truthfully.

“For example—eight Cold-Crying Birds?”

“Well, on this matter, I am indeed a bit sorry to your senior brother Baiyu, but I hope you keep it a secret for me. You both are good, principled people, and your respected master has a noble character and is fair in reward and punishment, but I fear one day Baiyu will come to beat me up.”

Wang Wu smiled awkwardly, having no choice but to heap praise on the Frost Monarch.

“Alright, I’ll keep your secret. Actually, even if you don’t say it, it’s fine. Without evidence, no one can do anything to you.” Qingxue smiled; she really loved to laugh.

Wang Wu appreciated her for two seconds, and the tension in his heart slowly dissipated after the appearance of the Frost Monarch. He was quite happy himself and sat comfortably on the ground.

“Who says otherwise? It’s rare to be happy about anything; it doesn’t matter anymore.”

“Makes sense. So, did you also kill Qin Yu?” Qingxue nodded, suddenly throwing out this sentence, nearly making Wang Wu jump three feet in shock. Should he kill to silence her or perhaps cook rice to maturity? Or… wait.

He glanced at Qingxue, who was looking composed, half-smiling with bright eyes, and sighed in frustration.

“Alright, if you can guess that, I admit it. What do you plan to do with me?”

“That’s not right, isn’t it supposed to be you killing me to silence me?”

“Why would I kill you? Can I even beat you?” Wang Wu rolled his eyes, feeling like his deepest secrets were exposed.

“How would you know if you don’t try? Qin Yu is a Taiyi Third-Stage True Immortal, didn’t he still get killed by you?”

“You seem to enjoy being killed by me.”

“Why not? Skill not as good as others, and I clumsily guessed your secret, I accept my bad luck, won’t blame you!” Qingxue was eager to try, almost hooking her little finger to beckon Wang Wu over, saying, “Come over, come over.”

“Killing you is impossible; I can’t do that. But as for bringing you over to my side, that piques my interest a little, but still not possible. I really trust you; if you wanted to harm me, there was no need to wait until now.”

“Good, at least you’re self-aware. Tell me, how did you kill Qin Yu?”

“Can I not say?”

“Sure, I respect your feelings. Rest assured, I’ll keep this to myself as well, won’t tell a soul.”

“Including your master?”

“Of course, if I say a word to her, I’ll take your surname as mine.”

Wang Wu sneered at this “guarantee,” “You better just come clean; this is a big deal. If it causes my master and your master to clash, that wouldn’t be good.”

“Do you still acknowledge that master of yours?”

“I wish I didn’t, but who else could take me in? If I wanted to be your master’s disciple, would she agree?”

“Of course not, she wouldn’t take someone so scheming, slick, and unserious like you.”

“So, does that mean I’ve repaid you and your master’s kindness? Look at the price I had to pay for it.” Wang Wu joked half-heartedly.

Qingxue didn’t respond, instead asked another question.

“My master said she owed you one. The day you were cornered by Qin Yu and had no choice but to take a risk, why didn’t you go to her?”

“Do you want the truth or a lie?”

“I want both.”

“The lie is, I forgot about it,” Wang Wu grinned, and then his smile gradually faded, “As for the truth, I just didn’t trust you all. The internal strife within the Hidden Origin Association truly scared me.”

“What about now? My master has shown her sincerity. If you need her help for anything, as long as it’s not too outrageous, she’ll basically fulfill it.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Wu scoffed, “Qingxue little sister, you’re still too naive, too wishful. You don’t understand the magnitude of an entity like your master, how terrifying she is. She can see through your thoughts with a single glance. You can’t measure her with your reasoning; she’s making you a special envoy, not her strategist.”

Qingxue’s expression turned slightly awkward, as if she forced out a few words through clenched teeth.

“I’m older than you!”

“Nonsense! You still call Baiyu ’senior brother.’ I must be older than you in every sense.”

“What do you mean?” Qingxue seemed about to lose her temper.

“No meaning, just saying your master has protected you too well. Look at you, look at Baiyu…”

“And then, you can beat both of us with one hand?”

Wisely, Wang Wu shut his mouth. He felt the atmosphere was a bit delicate; today Qingxue seemed particularly combative. Oh, no, she’s always been this fierce.

But Qingxue didn’t plan on letting him off.

“Don’t avoid the issue. I’m talking about serious matters. You don’t have the Blood Curse Celestial Punishment now; even I can see it at a glance. Guess what others might see? Those evil deeds you’ve done, do you believe your master, Elder Hui, wouldn’t come over and smack you dead half-dead?”

“Why only half-dead?”

“Because he probably can’t bear to kill you. You, who dared to ambush a Taiyi Third-Stage True Immortal at Tier Seven Earth Immortal and succeeded, are one of those rare ones who broke the Blood Curse Celestial Punishment by yourself in the Cultivation Realm. Such people are common, but in the Hidden Origin Association, they’re really rare. He’ll use all his means to protect you, and this time, he won’t make a mistake.” Qingxue said lazily.

“Why are you saying this?”

“How should I say it?” Qingxue retorted.

Wang Wu blinked, somewhat amused. This little sister was too honest, practically ensuring he had no worries, making it easy to negotiate.

“My cheap master and I, we’re not on the same path. Before, I was forced to kill Qin Yu, and in the future, I might be forced to kill him. I can’t guarantee anything, so unless I can overpower him in this lifetime, I’ll never appear in front of him to avoid disgrace.”

“But your master, and you, no, aside from your master, just you, Qingxue little sister, would you be willing to take me in?”

Qingxue paused, seemingly a bit shocked, or perhaps unsure how to respond!

After a good while, she replied strangely, “You still haven’t answered my initial question. Clearly, in your current situation, you only need to ask my master for one thing to solve it. Why aren’t you asking? Are you waiting for a better offer?”
