“He insisted that he doesn’t want to marry me, but guess what he did right afterwards? He fell on his own when getting out of the bed and wanted me to help support him! As if I would do that?”

In regards to the idea of playing hard to get, Snow Lotus have seen quite a lot of it in the past, that’s not fake. As a result of that, her view about others are somewhat twisted and difficult to change, hence the current situation.

“But…” apparently afraid her cousin there would misjudge her words, the girl quickly followed up with more, “I told him there’s no way I will be his wife. Even if he tries to force me, only my corpse will be waiting for him. As for the Millennium Ice Lotus… I guess the guy is getting lucky in that regard.”

Wen Yi immediately lowered his head to avoid eye contact, but the light in his gaze had gotten very dangerous and sharp at the idea of losing the Ice Lotus.

Humph, this stupid woman, as if I would let the Ice Lotus get away from my hands. Does she really think she’s all that? If not for the Snow Clan’s influence and power, I wouldn’t even bother to spend so many years sugaring her up!

Putting away his contemptable thoughts to continue in his act, Wen Yi forms the gentlest smile he could muster: “How can I ever watch you suffer Lotus? Know this, me wanting to pull the Ice Lotus out from that guy is for your sake, nothing else. I merely can’t endure watching you marry someone you don’t love, understand?”

“Big Cousin… ” the girl’s eye got all red and watery, sending her right into his arms like a lovestruck maiden. “Only you would care about me so much. I promise I will do everything to help you, my heart and soul is yours and yours only. That asshole will never get my body!”

Care?

A snickering laugh filled Wen Yi’s mind at the idea of that word.

How much is that worth? Caring for this idiotic woman is merely a mean to get what I want. After I’m done with her upon taking over the Snow Clan, I will make sure to stuff her into a cage and never let her out. There’re so many more females out there, why should I be constricted to a single one?

……

Not far above the snowy mountains, three young girls curled together into a shivering manner due to the extreme cold.

“Xiao Ying (tigress), are you sure Bai Yan is in this place?” Chu Yi Yi asks with clattering teethes as she squirmed from the low temperature.

Originally Huang Xiao Ying the daughter of the current tiger chief wasn’t going to be part of the group to come to the Celestial Realm; however, the girl had gotten wind of the news before her old man and intercepted it. As a result, she was able to secretly drag the other two human girls away, claiming she knew the way. Sadly, the plan had gone awry somewhere along the way. They’ve been walking for some time and never found a trace of Bai Yan anywhere, let alone a living creature in this desolated ice field.

“My grandmother told me we only need to head south to find the queen.” Huang Xiao Ying bites her thumbnail and answered honestly. She doesn’t know the exact location so she made sure to ask for the way before heading out.

In that instant, both Chu Yi Yi and Lan Xiaoyun were extremely horrified in their faces.

“Di Xiao Wan (demon princess) is right, you are a big brainless woman with only big boobs. This is the north, we’ve been walking northward!” Chu Yi Yi the Holy Land’s own princess jumps up and points her finger in an accusing manner at the tigress.

Normally this Chu Yi Yi wouldn’t have such an outburst even if they went the wrong direction, but this Huang Xiao Ying didn’t even bother to tell them about the information from the old grandmother! Now they’re even further than ever from Bai Yan’s location.

“Did I go the wrong way?” The tigress also turned green at the idea, her head stiffly looking around like she’s finally realizing her own mistake.

“Stupid, you idiot, you’re killing me!” Chu Yi Yi’s beautiful eyes glared at the tigress like she wants to chew her out, however her temper instantly vaporized at the cold breeze that ran through her spine in the next. “Forget it, let’s find a place to rest first before heading back!”

Lan Xiaoyun gets up at the good suggestion, her teeth also clattering from the cold: “Ya, let’s do that. I don’t get it, I’ve never been affected by the weather since I started to cultivate, why am I feeling it now in this place?” Exhaling to release a puff of white mist from her mouth, “Let’s head to that city we saw back over that hill. We can get a room at the inn or something and warm up before heading back.”
