Chapter 57 Surprising
'This seems to be fine,' Ciel thought after a while.
Of course, it's a very powerful artifact, so the structure is also very complicated.
The Eyes of Heaven can see everything, even the most hidden things.
From all those structures, Ciel found a common source, no different sources. He had the conclusion that there was nothing wrong because if there was a certain feature, it must have a slight difference in the structure.
"By the way, where is the Elf Queen?" asked Ciel to Mu Yixue.
He hadn't seen the woman since he finished cultivating. Even she hadn't shown up since her nephew came to make a mess.
Unfortunately, Mu Yixue didn't seem to know either.
She shrugged her shoulders in response.
Ciel rolled his eyes and finally sat down on the throne.
Phew!
He sighed, trying to stabilize the energy in his body.
The fight was quite short, he didn't use much energy, but he had to admit that he hadn't fully gotten used to this new power that was too much different compared to his previous power. Using it caused him to feel his body a little uncomfortable.
"I think I need some wine too," he said, glancing at Mu Yixue.
The latter rolled her eyes, taking out a cup and bottle filled with wine.
Only, right after that, she suddenly looked like she wanted to hand them directly to Ciel.
Before she could really move, Ciel said, "a good wife helps her husband pour the drink into the cup."
"You?" Mu Yixue opened her mouth at his words.
Her intention of wanting to establish an equal relationship with him suddenly seemed to be shattered as Ciel's words sounded like an order to her.
Of course, what he said actually made sense, but that was only for the little wife.
Unfortunately, Mu Yixue was still somewhat unwilling to challenge Ciel, so she still did as Ciel said, pouring the wine into that cup before handing it to Ciel.
"This is the right one," Ciel said.
He started drinking the wine, quite slowly.
However, he did not stop at just drinking the wine.
From his storage ring, he took out a long brown cigar.
It was actually the last one he had. He would have to buy another one later.
Using his fire power, he burned the end of the cigar until it became embers.
After that, he placed the other end into his mouth and began to gently suck on it.
Whoah!
He exhaled the smoke forward, forming a halo that became larger and larger as it got further away from his mouth.
Mu Yixue blinked her eyes a few times, looking astonished.
Actually, very few smoked in the Ice Continent, which was due to the absence of tobacco plants here.
Those who wanted to smoke had to import it from other continents, and unfortunately there weren't many who did that except for those who lived outside the Ice Continent for a long time.
"By the way Yixue, in your clan, is there anyone stronger than your aunt?" asked Ciel after she had relaxed enough.
He was quite curious about their clan as they seemed to have high quality women.
Plus, two women in the clan had already bonded with him. The younger one had already made love to him while the older one he had kissed.
Mu Yixue was somewhat surprised that Ciel asked that. She replied, "no, my father is only at the First Stage Demigod, and there are two elders one of whom is at the Second Stage."
"So your aunt is really the strongest?"
"Yes!"
"What about your mom?"
"What?" Mu Yixue's body almost fell over because of Ciel's question.
Her eyes flickered from shaking too strongly.
"Hey, what's that reaction?" Ciel asked with a soft laugh.
He understood why Mu Yixue reacted like that, which was obviously caused by his mischievous nature.
Mu Yixue was not a woman who could not speculate. This man was even eyeing the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen, it wasn't strange that he was fantasizing about her mother as well.
However, Ciel actually didn't think that far ahead. The question was purely out of curiosity.
Plus, it wasn't necessarily that Ciel was interested in Mu Yixue's mother.
According to rumors, women who had husbands and children on the Ice Continent were generally not as powerful as the women in the Ice Palace.
It's really rare for there to be more powerful ones.
Mu Yixue began to try to calm herself down even though it seemed difficult.
After taking a deep breath, she said, "my mother is only at the Ninth Hegemon Stage, she doesn't have great combat power either."
"Ohh..." That did seem to be what the rumors were.
"However, she must be very beautiful considering she could give birth to such a beautiful daughter, am I right?" Ciel said.
He deliberately said that because it was Mu Yixue who was acting as if she misunderstood. Since it was like that, just let her continue to misunderstand.
This time, Mu Yixue wasn't shaken anymore like before because she directly answered his words. "Ciel, you should stop thinking about that or trying to do something strange. Otherwise, I'll get angry."
Her voice became louder with time, as if she was ready to go on a rampage.
Ciel finally laughed at her reaction.
However, he did not give her an answer.
His gaze then moved to the mirror in his hand.
He sent his spiritual energy into the mirror to activate it.
Using it was very easy.
Once it is activated, simply send information about what you want to know into the mirror.
For example, regarding certain creatures, you should also send their images into the information you send. This is not something difficult even for low-level cultivators as it is not difficult for them to show their memories to others.
Ciel was currently curious about the creatures in the Ice Goddess' bathroom, so he sent information about them based on what he saw.
The mirror then emitted light and shook lightly, digesting the information Ciel had given it and looking for a match in the information stored inside.
And apparently, the information about the creatures was really inside the mirror because it stopped shaking not long after.
After that, light emanated from the mirror again, gathering to form a denser beam of light.
Whoosh!
It then entered Ciel's head and Ciel instantly received the information.
(Death Worm!)
Strange creatures created by the Ancient Night King, the mysterious being behind the race.
It is said that they are the most feared by all the Gods in the Seven Realms as they are truly menacing.
They have the ability to consume Gods in a short period of time.
At the same time, they are undetectable and cannot be seen unless the Gods raise their vision to the maximum with all their strength.
And in fact, there were already two Supreme Gods, equivalent to the Ice Goddess and the Elven Queen who were killed by them.
So far, there was no way to overcome them.
The good thing was that their numbers were also limited so the Ancient Night Race could not use them at will.
Plus, attacking using the worms directly was also not easy as the Gods could protect themselves first. Hence, the Ancient Night Race usually only used them covertly, when the Gods were caught off guard.
"Damn it! How can such dangerous creatures be in the Ice Goddess' bathroom?" Ciel was so stunned that he jumped off the throne.
