This is... Senior White!
Xia Ruoshui's eyes widened.
She realized.
The person in that portrait was precisely Bai Chen!
Although the era was different, the clothes on his body and the expression in his eyes had changed.
However, his appearance was exactly the same.
The white-haired woman sitting cross-legged in front of the ice throne turned around. She looked a little similar to Xia Ruoshui.
However, compared to Xia Ruoshui, he seemed more mature.
The ancestor of the Xia family, Xia Shiyu.
Seeing the shocked expression on Xia Ruoshui's face, Xia Shiyu followed her gaze and saw the portrait on the wall.
A smile appeared on his face.
"Ruoshui, are you also shocked by Sir's handsomeness?”
Xia Ruoshui woke up and realized that she had lost her composure.
He quickly lowered his head.
"Grandaunt, your grandson has lost his composure."
Because of the age gap.
Even those who were Xia Ruoshui's great-grandfather's generation addressed themselves as their grandsons in front of Xia Shiyu.
"It's fine. Get up."
Xia Shiyu smiled, stood up, walked to the jade table, and poured herself a cup of light blue tea.
"Haoyu just said that you met someone I know on this mission.”
"Tell me, who is it?"
Xia Yushi was one of the founders of the Demon Suppression Division.
He had already lived for nearly 200 years.
All the old friends from back then, excluding those who had also become Transcendents like her.
The rest had long since returned to dust.
She was also a little curious as to who this acquaintance was.
Xia Ruoshui looked at the portrait on the wall and seemed to confirm it again.
It's a senior called Bai Chen, he…"
Before he finished speaking.
The stone hall immediately rang with the crisp sound of objects falling and colliding with the ground.
Ding!
Xia Shiyu instantly appeared in front of Xia Ruoshui and grabbed Xia Ruoshui's shoulders with both hands. Her eyes widened.
"What did you say his name was?"
Xia Shiyu looked excited, completely ignoring the priceless teacup on the ground.
Over twenty years.
This was the first time Xia Ruoshui had seen him like this.
Under Xia Ruoshui's influence.
Xia Shiyu was the ancestor of the Xia family.
He was the founder of the Demon Suppression Bureau and one of the few emperor realm superhumans in China.
All this time, even when the Abyssal Chasm opened twenty years ago, it had been a long time.
When the demons invaded.
Their expressions were indifferent.
But now…
"Bai…Bai Chen, Senior White." Xia Ruoshui spoke again.
"Do you have his photo?"
Xia Shiyu asked anxiously.
"No, but Senior White gave me a wooden tablet.”
Xia Ruoshui took out the black wooden token that Bai Chen had given her and handed it to Xia Shiyu.
Xia Shiyu looked at the black wooden token in her hand, her hands trembling as she gently caressed and flipped through it, muttering to herself.
"Yes…yes…"
He seemed to have fallen into reminiscence.
Xia Ruoshui stood quietly at the side and did not disturb him.
Instead, he looked at the portrait on the wall and frowned.
This portrait.
In fact, when Xia Ruoshui came over to cultivate when she was young, she had already seen it.
However, because Xia Haoyu had warned her, she had not asked about it.
Later on, he gradually forgot about this matter.
And this time, after seeing Bai Chen in Jing An, he returned here.
This time, he reacted.
'According to the records... grandaunt was never married, and Senior White's portrait has always been hanging here.'
'Could it be that Senior White is grandaunt's boyfriend?'
Xia Ruoshui pondered and looked at Xia Shiyu.
Seeing that he was still reminiscing excitedly, he was even more certain of his guess.
No wonder Senior White said that grandaunt would understand once she saw the token...
"Ruoshui, he…did his appearance change from this?”
Xia Shiyu's voice rang in her ears and Xia Ruoshui woke up.
He realized that his grandaunt was already standing in front of the portrait.
"His appearance hasn't changed much, but…his aura is a little different.”
"When I went to see Senior White, although my words were simple, they were very gentle.”
"The same goes for the eyes. They don't have such a sharp feeling.”
Xia Ruoshui said truthfully.
He also recounted the contents of his conversation with Bai Chen.
"Yes…yes…"
Xia Shiyu smiled and nodded, as happy as a child.
When he looked at Xia Ruoshui again, a blue light surged into his eyes.
Xia Shiyu reached out and pointed at Xia Ruoshui's forehead.
A pure icy cold energy entered Xia Ruoshui's glabella from his fingertip.
Xia Ruoshui was surprised.
His shattered ice crystals were gradually reappearing.
A minute later.
The Origin Ice Crystal was completely formed.
Moreover, Xia Ruoshui felt that her strength had improved a lot compared to before.
Xia Shiyu put down her right hand, and the blue light in her eyes disappeared.
He seemed a little tired.
However, his spirit was still at its peak.
"Regarding the matter of Xian…Bai Chen, do as he says.”
"Do not reveal his existence to anyone.”
"This is my warrant, take it.”
Xia Shiyu took out an ice token and handed it to Xia Ruoshui.
Xia Ruoshui nodded and took it.
The two of them exchanged a few words.
Xia Ruoshui quickly left the stone hall.
Xia Shiyu was the only one left in the hall.
Xia Shiyu caressed the token in her hand as if she was protecting a rare treasure.
"Since you said that you will meet very soon, then Shiyu is not in a hurry.”
Xia Shiyu's tone was gentle as she looked at the portrait.
"Sir, just now, Shiyu…called you by your name. You won't blame her, right?”
She was delicate and carried a hint of joy, as if she was a little woman.
Only now was there no one else in the stone hall.
If Xia Haoyu and the others were to see their grandaunt in such a state…
They would definitely be shocked.
In the backyard of the Xia family's villa, under a big tree.
Xia Haoyu sat in front of the stone table.
After being chased out by Xia Shiyu, he came here directly.
Not long after, the tunnel behind them opened.
Xia Ruoshui walked out with a puzzled expression.
" Ruoshui is out. How is it? Ask..."
Xia Haoyu wanted to ask Xia Ruoshui if she had gotten the result he wanted.
However, he discovered that…
"Your ice crystals have reformed? How did you get there so quickly?"
Xia Haoyu was a little surprised.
Normally, after their Xia family's ice crystal shattered, they would not be able to do anything.
Even with the help of the land of ice below.
It would take a week to recover.
Less than half an hour had passed.
He had already recovered?
Furthermore, Xia Haoyu could sense it.
Xia Ruoshui's aura was even stronger than the day before yesterday.
"Grandaunt took action and directly transferred the origin spiritual energy to me.”Xia Ruoshui said truthfully.
Xia Haoyu was even more shocked.
"No reason? Grandaunt has always been famous…"
He stopped halfway and turned his head nervously to look at the tunnel.
Xia Ruoshui understood what he meant. She hesitated for a moment and frowned when she saw that there was no one around.
"Dad, have you heard about grandaunt's boyfriend?”
"Ah?"
Xia Haoyu frowned and looked at Xia Ruoshui, wondering if he had heard wrongly.
