There were not many people before the cold pool. Aside from the ten peak masters, two of the immortal venerable’s emissaries had come to join in the fun.

Shui Wuxin’s native magic weapon was a white jade light sword, with a white and pure body of ivory. It was very beautiful.

Shui Wuxin entered the cave with Shui Kongling and Bai Lixin and gave a slight nod as a greeting.

In the cold pool, Feng Baixiao was immersed in the cold water, but his face was calm and relaxed as if he was not facing death but an outing.

Feng Baixiao’s eyes flickered for a moment when he saw Bai Lixin, then the emotion disappeared into the depths of his eyes.

“Sovereign Shui, have you brought the things?” One of the emissaries looked toward Shui Wuxin.

“Yes, I have brought the lightniy gourd left by Immortal Master Tai Zu,” Shui Wuxin said as he drew a palm-sized transparent sphere from his sleeve. Inside the sphere, lightning constantly flickered with diverging rays, covering the entire sphere.

The messenger’s eyes lit up, and he was about to reach out to receive the guord when Shui Wuxin quickly threw the guord up into the sky with a haughty flourish, and the guord came to a steady stop above Feng Baixiao’s head.

As soon as the gourd containing the lightning head was stable above Feng Baixiao’s head, the guord that had restricted the lightning fell to the ground and was replaced by dark clouds in the small space.

“Gentlemen, the Ice and Lightning Capital Punishment will begin soon, so please all leave. We will come back after the 99 strikes to see how this sinful beast fared. ” Shui Wuxin pointed to the exit on seeing the increasingly cloudy sky over the cold pond and the thunder and lightning that were already pulsating restlessly.

The crowd heard Shui Wuxin say this, and they headed for the cave entrance. The emissaries gave a regretful glance at the dark clouds and slowly left with a vague expression of regret on their faces. The cave was already ravaged by black clouds, but three figures remained inside the cave, without the slightest intention of leaving.

Shui Wuxin’s gaze was fixed on Shui Kongling beside him, and he said helplessly, “Kongling, take one last look and we go.”

Shui Kongling’s expression was solemn. Tears were stored in her eyes, yet she was forcibly holding them back from falling.

She did not respond to Shui Wuxin’s words. She looked at the dark clouds that were tumbling more and more, and suddenly took two steps towards the cold pool!

One more step and she would sink into the cold pool!

Shui Wuxin’s heart was filled with horror as his fingers flew about. Bai Lixin only saw a flash of white light hit the back of Shui Kongling’s head.

Shui Kongling, who was already standing at the edge of the cold pool, let out a cry and instantly fell back.

Quick as a flash, Shui Wuxin rushed behind Shui Kongling and stopped her from falling to the ground.

He held Shui Kongling in his arms and looked at Bai Lixin with urgency, “Has the love-forgetting pill been made, little Cha?”

Bai Lixin smiled gently and took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom before handing it to Shui Wuxin. “It’s not a love-forgetting pill, it’s love-forgetting water. It’s easier to give. Just open her mouth and pour it in. ”

Without saying a word, Shui Wuxin took the porcelain bottle and said hesitantly, “Will it just make her forget her love? There will be no other effects. ”

“Sect Master, this is from the handwritten notes of my master, Daoist Yixiao, and I have only slightly improved it. There are no poisonous herbs in this substance. Aside from making one forget their most precious and affectionate feelings after taking it, it will also greatly increase the cultivation! ”

Shui Wuxin looked at Shui Kongling in his arms, and then at Bai Lixin, who had a serious face, gritted his teeth, and said, “I’m sure you wouldn’t dare lie to me.”

He then took Shui Kongling’s chin and poured the love-forgetting water into her mouth. Bai Lixin saw this, and the light in his eyes flickered slightly. His expression was suddenly anxious as he said, “Oh, Sect Master! I have one more thing to say. Senior Brother Feng has been wrongly accused. Do you know that? I came here because I overheard Senior Brother Feng’s wrongdoings. Ten years ago, I saw Feng Baixiao leave the Demon Realm on the day he sent me into seclusion. So how could he have met Senior Sister Shui a few days later? If you don’t trust him, who will? ”

Shui Wuxin’s heart seized, and he turned his head to look at Feng Baixiao.

At that moment, Feng Baixiao’s eyes were still firm. Although his face was pale, his righteousness was awe-inspiring, and he was not afraid of his gaze, looking straight at him.

Shui Wuxin suddenly remembered the high hopes he had placed in Feng Baixiao for so many years; he remembered the efforts Feng Baixiao had made for so many years; he remembered Feng Baixiao’s dedication to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for so many years.

His heart twitched slightly as he pointed to the white sphere that had landed on the ground and said, “You’re right, Little Cha. It is inconvenient for me to punish him now. The secret treasure that seals the thunder tribulation is there. I will teach you a spell that you can use to seal the lightning head back into the guord. Just mouth the spell at the opening. I was indeed confused about Baixiao’s matter because it involved Kongling. I should have given it more thought. ”

Bai Lixin’s eyes lit up, and he said happily, “Thank you, Master. I’ll put it back in now! ”

With these words, he jumped away from Shui Wuxin’s side and rushed towards the white guord.

Shui Wuxin’s eyes chilled as he stood up with Shui Kongling in his arms and exited from the vast cave into the long, thin passage.

The dark clouds overhead were accumulating, no longer just lining Feng Baixiao’s head but even Bai Lixin’s head.

It was as if Bai Lixin had not noticed Shui Wuxin’s departure as he rushed over and picked up the white guord. He turned his head happily to look at the place where Shui Wuxin had been.

But Shui Wuxin had already gone with Shui Kongling in his arms and was standing in the corridor.

Seeing Bai Lixin looking over, Shui Wuxin sneered. With his free hand, he set up a boundary in the cave, “So what if I know that Feng Baixiao was wrongly accused? I will not let you have the chance to tell the truth. My daughter is a star in the sky. Even if she is defiled, she can only be defiled by the pride of the sky, Feng Baixiao, and no one else! Little Cha, if you had not mentioned this matter, I might have spared your life for the sake of your good behaviour and talent, as well as Junior Brother Yixiao’s sake, but you just had to bring it up. Foolish! It’s a pity that the Ethereal Wood and Water Technique of my junior brother’s lineage would be lost after you die. Junior brother Yixiao, I have wronged you by harming your apprentice, but senior brother had no choice. You must not blame senior brother!”

Shui Wuxin looked at Bai Lixin, whose face instantly turned pale, smiled gently, and carried Shui Kongling out of the cave.

Halfway through carrying Shui Wuxin, he heard the sound of lightning striking on the ice surface. The lightning stirred up countless fragments of ice, which was deafening to the ears.

The earth trembled, and the walls of the passageway emitted a series of fractures. Shui Wuxin looked over and found that the lightning strikes had already reached here.

He held Shui Kong Ling tighter in his arms, quickened his pace, and quickly left the cave.

Outside the ice cave, ten elders and two emissaries were still waiting outside. When the ten elders saw Shui Wuxin walking out of the cave unharmed with Shui Kongling in his arms, their faces visibly relaxed. One of the elders took the lead and asked, “Sect Leader, what happened to Kongling?”

Shui Wuxin shook his head, “Nothing, just overwhelmed with sadness and passed out.”

That elder breathed a light sigh of relief, “That’s good.”

He looked behind Shui Wuxin and felt like something was missing, but he couldn’t remember exactly what it was.

His brows knitted gently with a puzzled expression.

Strange. What exactly was missing?

Bai Lixin was only a dispensable presence for those cultivators who were already at the end of their Jindan period or the beginning of their YuanYing period. Moreover, Bai Lixin had not done anything extraordinary before, so he had long since been forgotten in that serious and tense moment. Now that only Shui Wuxin and Shui Kongling had left, none of the other nine elders noticed anything unusual.

The earth continued to tremble and shake around. It took a lot of concentration for those trained cultivators to avoid being knocked to the ground by the tremors, not to mention Feng Baixiao under the thunder.

The elder who had been thinking about what was missing suddenly exclaimed, “Sect Leader, where is the green-clothed boy who was with you just now? How come he is no longer there? ”

Shui Wuxin stood firmly on the snow with Shui Kongling in his arms and said, with a long sigh, “That boy is the disciple of Master Yixiao, who has been with me since his disappearance. To my surprise, Kongling tried to jump into the cold pond, and fortunately, little Cha was quick to save her, but he ended up falling into the cold pond. ”

The elder drew a cold breath, “Into the cold pool? That… that is extremely cold water. If a person below the Golden Elixir cultivation enters there, his or her lungs will be frozen into ice in a matter of moments. ”

Shui Wuxin let out a long sigh, “Yes, it was little Cha who saved Kongling, but I failed to save Little Cha. It was my fault.”

“Don’t be sad, Sect Leader. For him to do so is a way of repaying your kindness to him. ” The elder also sighed and supported his body from the tremors by taking two steps back.

Shui Wuxin looked down at Shui Kongling’s face, using his hair to hide his indifferent expression at the moment.

‘Junior brother Yixiao, although I could not help you and keep your disciple alive, he has died for a good cause. He died in the name of saving Kongling. I will come here to pay my respects to Little Cha every year from now on, so it is a decent death, right? ‘

He was still thinking about what would happen afterwards when he felt Shui Kongling in his arms squirm a little.

Shui Wuxin’s eyes lit up, and he saw Shui Kongling open her bright watery eyes.

Kongling, you have finally woken up! How do you feel? ” Shui Wuxin said, surprised.

Shui Kongling frowned slightly after opening her eyes. She looked Shui Wuxin up and down with a critical gaze before her lips opened slightly and she whispered, “Excuse me, who are you?”
