The poem reads:
The mountain stream gurgled, and the ice spring was cold at the bottom of the lake.
The cold wind blew through the quiet forest, and the blue light seal of the snowy plain was clear.
After Luo Yichen left the cave, he didn't fly towards the nearest mountain stream. Instead, he flew towards the Cold Wind Lake in the south of the Demon Realm. He recalled Lan Mengxi's childhood memories in her old residence and said," One is the dew by the mountain stream, and it must be the morning dew."”
The sky was getting colder and the sun was about to set. Luo Yichen planned to head to Cold Wind Lake the next morning to look for the legendary turtle shell.
The surrounding air was a little cold. The occasional breeze brought a cool touch. The spring water gurgled, and the clear Hanfeng Lake was like an unpolished silver mirror, reflecting the scenery of the lake and mountains. Fireflies were scattered in the secluded forest, and the lanterns were decorated as if they were welcoming him. Luo Yichen walked to Hanfeng Lake after the clouds dispersed under his feet. He didn't know where the cold wind came from, but Luo Yichen couldn't help but shiver.
The cold fog was even thicker than the cold water in the pond. Although it did not have the waterfall like the water in the sky, there was the melting water of the underground glaciers gushing out of the spring. Luo Yichen bent down to pick up a small stone beside his feet and threw it into the water with a splash. However, there was no splash. The stone silently sank into the bottom of the lake. Luo Yichen was suspicious," Why is the lake so quiet? It's so quiet that it makes me uneasy."”
Luo Yichen then extended his sword finger between his eyes," Immortal light, shine in all directions. Heavenly Eye, open!”
After the golden light appeared, Luo Yichen looked at the clear and soul-calming lake water," There is nothing strange about this lake. Could it be that there is something wrong with it?"”Luo Yichen slowly stretched his hand out towards the lake. The reflection in the lake was doing the same thing as him. His fingertips formed a faint ripple on the surface of the lake. Luo Yichen smiled," It's just an ordinary pool of lake water. What's there to worry about?"”Just as Luo Yichen was laughing bitterly at his own stupidity, his reflection in the lake suddenly revealed a fierce look. His hand reached out from the lake and Luo Yichen was shocked. He was pulled into the lake. With a splash, there was no splash. Looking at the lake from afar, it was quiet, as if no one had ever been here.
Luo Yichen used his Heavenly Eye to scan the bottom of the lake for the presence of the demon. In the end, other than the clear blue lake water, there were no traces of the demon." Who pulled me down?"”Luo Yichen quickly chanted the Water Repellent Art, and spiritual energy was released from the golden seal between his eyebrows, immediately forming a bright and new barrier around him. Ever since Luo Yichen was saved by Lan Mengxi, he released his hidden power and broke through the last level of the Immortal Spirit Path. This golden seal was permanently left on his forehead.
Luo Yichen wanted to go back to the shore, but he realized that there was an invisible barrier on the surface of the lake. It was extremely hard. Luo Yichen used his sword sheath to break the barrier, but his plan failed. He stayed in the lake." The second is the turtle shell at the bottom of Hanfeng Lake. It looks like a turtle shell, but it's actually a rock formed by the accumulation of minerals at the bottom of the lake.”Luo Yichen recalled Lan Mengxi's words. The sound lingered in his ears, as if she was right beside him. In fact, Lan Mengxi's soul was stored in the sea blue gem in the scabbard. She was half a person.
"Since we've entered Coldwind Lake, why don't we go find Turtleback?”Luo Yichen waved his arms and used the Water Repellent Art to dive down to the bottom of the lake. Every time he dived three feet down, it would become colder. Unknowingly, the surrounding air gradually became thinner and the icy cold penetrated the spiritual energy of the Water Repellent Art and reached the surface of his body. Luo Yichen felt a little uncomfortable," Why did the lake suddenly become so cold?"”
He could vaguely see countless tiny stones scattered at the bottom of the lake." We're almost there. That should be the turtle shell Xi-er mentioned!”
The muscles all over his body began to tremble and become stiff. Luo Yichen's lips gradually lost their initial red color and his slightly pale lips trembled slightly," We're almost there!”Luo Yichen waved his arm again and found that his arm was already numb and stiff, unable to bend. He stretched his arm straight towards the turtle shell at the bottom of the lake.
Luo Yichen's ears turned purple from the cold. His handsome face had aged and wrinkled from the torture of the Cold Wind Lake. The cold air kept entering his body. Luo Yichen lost consciousness the moment he picked up the turtle shell. He fell to the ground with a pale face. Other than the turtle shell that he had just picked up, there were also small stones that he had thrown into the lake.
Luo Yichen blinked his eyes in a daze. He felt his limbs being dragged by someone, but he was powerless to resist. His vision went black and he didn't know anything.
A long trail was left at the bottom of the lake. After the lake water tumbled and the fine sand calmed down, the depression was as quiet as usual.
When Luo Yichen opened his eyes, he realized that he was tied to a pillar. His hands were chained to both sides of the horizontal wood. Luo Yichen held his breath and tried to break the chains, but he realized that there was no movement. He exerted his strength again, and the noise echoed in the interrogation room." Don't struggle. This is the refined iron of the demon world. It has the seal of the demon world. Even if you are a great immortal, you may not be able to break free!"”
Luo Yichen saw an old turtle walking towards the door and cursed," Old turtle, why did you bring me to this lousy place? I have no enmity with you in the past or in the present. Let go of me quickly, I have something urgent to do!"”
" What old turtle? I am the Prime Minister Turtle of Coldwind Lake…" The Prime Minister Turtle tidied up his crown and lapels. His back was hunched, and his hands were on both sides of his Ice-Gold Belt. He circled around Luo Yichen and sized him up." I don't think you are from the Demon Realm. Tell me, why did you come here to steal the turtle back left behind by my kind?"”
"That's not right. Xi-er said that the turtle's back is made of rock and not a real turtle shell. Prime Minister Turtle, are you mistaken? Also, let me out quickly!" Luo Yichen once again struggled with the chains on his wrists. The interrogation room shook slightly. A wisp of dust fell from the roof and landed on Prime Minister Turtle's nose bridge. Prime Minister Turtle stared at the dust on his nose bridge with crossed eyes." Good boy, you're still so arrogant even after being caught!" I'll see how you die when the Dragon King comes!" Prime Minister Turtle walked toward the door angrily. Suddenly, he remembered something and turned around." The turtle's back is indeed not the shell of a turtle, but it's the mark left by my kind when they practiced Kung Fu. If a foreign species dares to erase it, I'll definitely make you pay in front of the Dragon King!"”
Luo Yichen suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door. He raised his head impatiently and asked," Old Dragon King, if you have something to say, say it quickly. I still have important things to do. A life is at stake!"”
" I'm not the Dragon King…" A young woman entered the interrogation room. She had a pair of horns on her forehead, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a lively and cheerful personality." I'm the youngest daughter of the Cold Wind Dragon King. My name is Leng Wanning."”
"Oh, so it's the little female dragon. Can you let Yi Chen go back? Yi Chen has something important to do.”
"No, my father didn't agree to let Wanning go. You said your name is Yi Chen? The name was really nice. Wanning heard that a handsome and dignified man had arrived, so she rushed over to take a look. He was indeed as impressive as the rumors said. He was a feast for the eyes. Oh no, he was extremely handsome.”Leng Wanning really liked Luo Yichen, and it was love at first sight for her. "Why don't you stay and play with Wanning? There are countless gold, silver, treasures, jade, silk, and satin here for you to choose from.”
" Miss Wanning, Yi Chen really doesn't have the time to waste here. Xi-er's life is in danger because she saved me. How can I…"
"Wait! Who is Xi-er?" When Leng Wanning heard this name, she could tell that Luo Yichen had someone in his heart." She's a girl?”
" Yes, she's Yi Chen's beloved. Xi-er is a Nine-Tailed Snow Fox. In order to save me, she blocked the attacks of two spider demons and her soul dissipated. Yi Chen cast a spell to keep her. If I can't bring her soul into my body within the time limit, her soul will really dissipate.”Luo Yichen wanted to persuade Leng Wanning to let him go, but Leng Wanning admired him even more." What a devoted man. Wanning wants to marry you!" Be Wanning's husband…"
" Miss Wanning, you can't do this now. Yi Chen's love for Xi-er can be seen by heaven and earth…"
" I don't care if you're cheap or not. Wanning likes you…"
"Who likes who?" A resolute and deep voice came from outside the door. Cold Wind Dragon King walked into the cave. Leng Wanning stepped forward and hugged the Dragon King's arm as she shouted," Dad, you're finally here." Wanning likes him!"
Luo Yichen suddenly felt uneasy," How did I meet such a woman? It's going to be a big problem if I can get out now."”
"Brat, you trespassed into Cold Wind Lake today. Do you know your crimes?”The Dragon King pointed at Luo Yichen and asked. Luo Yichen immediately retorted," Yichen only came to the lake to pick the turtle shell to save people. What's wrong with that?"”
"Save people? Save who? The Dragon King hadn't seen a stranger recently, but he saw a man with a story as soon as he arrived. He listened to Luo Yichen's story with great interest.
Coldwind Dragon King held his waist and laughed." Oh, so you're here to save your sweetheart." I, the old Dragon King, am not an unreasonable person. Since you are eager to save your lover, I will spare you!”
Prime Minister Turtle immediately stood up and cupped his fists." But Dragon King, that kid covets the turtle back of my kind. He deserves to die!"”
Leng Wanning quickly walked in front of the Prime Minister Turtle." It's just a broken stone. Is there a need to be so serious?" Besides, Yi Chen was so handsome, so it didn't hurt to let him take a few more.”
Luo Yichen, who was on tenterhooks, finally heaved a sigh of relief. He felt much more at ease when he saw that the Dragon King's family was so understanding.
Leng Wanning returned to the Dragon King." Father, as long as he is willing to marry me, I will do whatever he wants."”
Luo Yichen's face suddenly turned ashen. He knew that he was in big trouble now. Leng Wanning still wanted to marry him." No, Yi Chen will only marry Lan Mengxi."”
"What's wrong with a man having three wives and four concubines? I think this will work. As long as you marry our Wanning, you can ask for anything!”Coldwind Dragon King laughed as he tapped Leng Wanning's nose." My precious daughter will definitely be happy to have such an infatuated husband.”
Luo Yichen gritted his teeth and scolded," I will never agree to the marriage.”
"Why? Could it be that this old man's daughter isn't worthy of an ordinary man like you?”There was a limit to the Dragon King's patience. Leng Wanning insisted on marrying Luo Yichen, and Luo Yichen was caught in a dilemma.
"I'll give you more time to think about it. Daughter, come with daddy!”
"No, Daddy, Wanning wants to be with him!”Leng Wanning was dragged out of the interrogation room by the Dragon King reluctantly.
Prime Minister Turtle said to Luo Yichen," Hmph, you'll suffer.”
The gate's fence extended from top to bottom and from left to right, piercing into the holes. Coupled with the restrictions set up by the dragon race, Luo Yichen had no chance of escaping even if he broke free from the shackles.
Luo Yichen's face was dark as he looked at the sword beside him." Xi-er, what should I do?”
Lan Mengqian brought Lan Mengxi's body back to the Clear Snow Plain. Many animals and monsters were playing in the snow." What's wrong? Where did that snow bear go?"
The family of the Snow Monkeys, who had been expelled from the Clear Snow Plains by the Snow Bear, were moving their things back. They said with laughter," Since that immortal eradicated the Snow Bear, we can finally return to this familiar and suitable place to live. I'm really not used to the time when we were out!”
"So it was Luo Yichen who defeated the Snow Bear?”Lan Mengqian followed the light of her memories to her childhood home." Why does this place feel like a brand new place? What a familiar smell. Wait, Luo Yichen was here too?”Lan Mengqian slowly walked into the depths of the cave and saw footprints of various sizes on the ground." Xi-er and Yi Chen really came here!”
Lan Mengqian placed Lan Mengxi's body on a simple bed," But why did Luo Yichen ask me to bring my sister back?" Could it be that he had discovered some strange method?”
Lan Mengqian waved her sleeves and placed the five snow lotus lamps on the side." Sister's earthly tribulation is coming soon. It's really worrying to encounter such a thing!”Lan Mengqian set up a barrier at the entrance to prevent other demons from approaching. She sat in the cave and cultivated alone," I hope Luo Yichen can really do it!"”
After a long time, the fence at the door opened and the Dragon King walked in." Boy, have you finished considering it?" Are you going to marry our Wanning?"
"If you don't agree, Xi-er will definitely die. Why don't you pretend to agree first and apologize to Miss Wanning later?”Luo Yichen frowned and made a decision with difficulty," Alright, I promise you!”
"Isn't that it? If he had agreed earlier, he wouldn't have been trapped here! Men, put him down!"
Shrimp soldiers and crab generals walked out from behind him. They held the Dragon Clan's ritual implement and cast a spell at the array core around Luo Yichen. Then, they began to chant an incantation. After the incantation on the shackles faded, Luo Yichen jumped down from the shelf." Thank you, Dragon King."”
Coldwind Dragon King frowned." Eh? You still call me Dragon King?"”
Leng Wanning whispered to Luo Yichen," Call me father-in-law!”
"Oh, thank you, father-in-law!" Luo Yichen replied with a smile.
Coldwind Dragon King turned around and was about to leave." The banquet has been arranged. I will immediately invite all the guests to attend the wedding banquet. Wanning is my most beloved daughter. If you treat her badly in the future, I will teach you a lesson!"”
Luo Yichen cupped his fists and bowed," Father-in-law, I have a presumptuous request.”
The Dragon King waved his sleeves and smiled delightedly." We're all family. Just say what you want to say!”
"Yi Chen is in a hurry to save people. He has to collect everything before tomorrow night.”Luo Yichen cupped his fists and said earnestly. The Dragon King looked at Leng Wanning hesitantly," This…"
When Leng Wanning saw Luo Yichen's anxious expression, she could not help but feel anxious," Father, it's more important to save them. Let my husband go and save them first!"”
The Dragon King took a deep breath." Alright!”
"Thank you, father-in-law, for your help!" Luo Yichen bowed once again to express his gratitude. The Dragon King extended his sword finger and a sky-blue beam of light shot into the back of Luo Yichen's neck.
" Dragon King, you..." Luo Yichen's body went numb." What did you do to Yi Chen..."
"This king is only casting a spell on you. If you don't fulfill your promise to marry my Wan Ning, then this king only needs a thought to make you disappear!”
"Yi Chen, just agree!" Luo Yichen thought to himself,'This is bad. If I don't marry Leng Wanning according to his request, I won't be able to be with Xi-er. What should I do?'
"Forget it. We'll take it one step at a time. We can still find the broken spell in the future.”
Luo Yichen followed the Cold Wind Dragon King out of the interrogation room and arrived at the majestic Dragon Palace. Luo Yichen could not help but sigh," The palace is indeed magnificent and luxurious. The Dragon Palace is really magnificent." Luo Yichen looked up at the exterior of the carved beams and painted buildings. He really did not expect that there would be such a fairyland in the Demon Realm. The surrounding water plants were dancing and colorful bubbles could be seen everywhere. Everything was so surreal.
"Why can I breathe underwater?”Luo Yichen suddenly realized that he could move freely in the water without casting any spells.
Coldwind Dragon King twirled his beard proudly and said," That's because of the magical power I injected into you just now, which allowed you to enter and leave Coldwind Lake freely. Otherwise, it would be bad if you were eroded by the cold air and hurt my Xianxu!”
"Let Wanning accompany you this time!”
" This…isn't good. The journey is dangerous and arduous. Miss Wan Ning is a precious daughter. How can she follow Yi Chen…"
"If you can't even protect her, what use is there for this king to keep you alive! There's no need to say anything more, just do as this king says!”Coldwind Dragon King turned to Leng Wanning and said," Daughter, don't be too willful and cause trouble. It's not good to delay important matters, and you're so impatient!”
Leng Wanning pouted and retorted," Father, Wanning isn't as bad as you say. She made me useless!"”
"Miss Wanning, let's set off!”Luo Yichen hid the turtle shell in his clothes and walked towards the tunnel that led to the bottom of Cold Wind Lake.
The Prime Minister Turtle watched helplessly as Luo Yichen took the turtle back. He paced back and forth in the room in worry and stomped his feet anxiously." This is a robbery!"”
When the two of them floated up from the bottom of the lake, Luo Yichen was surprised to find that the barrier had disappeared. No, it was the Dragon King's magical power that allowed him to come and go as he pleased!”
Leng Wanning stuck her head out and stretched her arms." Wow, this is the Demon Realm. The air is so good!" He had been staying in that boring Dragon Palace since he was young. He was so bored.”
"Yi Chen, wait for me!" Leng Wanning watched as Luo Yichen flew away on the clouds. She turned around and transformed into a sea dragon that disappeared into the clouds. Luo Yichen's feet jerked and he realized that he was stepping on her back," I couldn't bear to see you fly so slowly, so I brought you along."”
"Miss Wanning, thank you." Luo Yichen felt guilty when he saw Leng Wanning being so warm-hearted towards him. She used the excuse of marrying her to gain her freedom. If she knew the truth in the future, Leng Wanning would definitely be heartbroken.
"Yi Chen, do you think our wedding will really be held in the Dragon Palace? There were so many demons coming to the Dragon Palace. A group of people would die on the way to Cold Wind Lake alone, let alone in the Dragon Palace. What was her father thinking?”
"Cold Wind Lake really does have some secrets, but Xi-er and Qian-er never mentioned it.”Luo Yichen came back to his senses from his thoughts. Leng Wanning landed on the ground and transformed back into the Dragon Lady." We're here!" In front of us is the Quiet Forest."
"Then let's hurry in and look for it!”After Luo Yichen stepped into the forest, he recalled what Lan Mengxi had said before," The third is the blue fluorescent mushrooms in the forest. They are naturally grown plants that emit a mesmerizing glow no matter whether it's dark or white. However, these plants are usually occupied by demons, so it's rare to hear about the whereabouts of the blue fluorescent mushrooms."”
"If we encounter a demon, then it will be another fierce battle!”Luo Yichen had already mentally prepared himself. After all, there were countless bloodstains on the battlefield and countless souls under the sword. Why would he lack that demon in the Quiet Forest? Such a strong sense of superiority often made it easy for people to let down their guard. Luo Yichen was one of them.
After Luo Yichen had broken through the spell profound that Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals specialized in, he was full of confidence. Every time he raised the Zhenyuan Sword in his hand, which was given to him by his master after he won the first place in the Divine General Martial Competition, he felt that it was enough to deal with all the demons in the demon world. However, he did not consider any other opponents besides the demons.
After Luo Yichen walked into the forest, he felt that the trees in this forest were not as lush as the ones in the forest. Instead, they were red to the point of turning purple, and purple to the point of turning black. Everything gave people a strange impression," Why is it so quiet here? It's so lifeless that there's not a single living thing. Could it be that an unprecedented disaster has happened here?"”
Leng Wanning looked at the eerie and quiet forest. There were turbid gases and corrosive halos everywhere. She had been walking behind Luo Yichen and sniffed the surrounding scents. Suddenly, she covered her mouth and nose and shouted," Not good, Yi Chen, there's a trap here!"”
However, Luo Yichen had entered the depths of the forest to hurry up and only stopped after hearing Leng Wanning's words.
"What trap?" When Luo Yichen turned around, a wave of dizziness washed over him and he fell to the ground.
