--- Chapter 61 ---

Some carriages stopped by a river.

Several people came out and freshened themselves, but one stayed and has never felt so frustrated.

Chu Yueli has gotten tied to a carriage for days!

Not only that, but others treated it like it was normal.

No, even worse, they treated her like a cooler or air conditioner, which she never heard of.

She, the Fairy of Frozen Glass, couldn't do anything in this situation.

Shame!

Extreme shame!

Yu Long landed on the carriage's ceiling and commented, "Well, well, Senior."

"You look mad like usual."

"Hmph!" Chu Yueli swayed her head away.

"Aih, women are so unreasonable." Yu Long sighed helplessly.

"First, you attacked us."

"And now this."

"You're only getting tied up for a few days. At most, you only get bruises, but your physique is that of a Sky Profound Realm, so it's not possible."

"I could have done worse. I could kill you..."

Chu Yueli's expression slowly changed because she knew her fate lay in Yu Long's hands. Like he said, she could have died anytime.

It is mercy for him to tie her already.

Yu Long sat beside her and added, "Also, thanks to me, your pent-up ice energy wouldn't spike your emotion anymore..."

"Your Frozen Cloud Asgard sure had it wrong in many ways."

"First of all, training a cultivation art that froze one's heart from desires is a big no-no in cultivation."

"Desire is a good thing because it is the force that keeps you moving forward. A drive if I used my words."

"Yet you Frozen Cloud Asgard's disciples disregard this part and turn yourself into failure."

"What makes you different from an emotionless ice statue?" Yu Long criticized Chu Yueli to the very core.

Chu Yueli couldn't reply.

She knew what Yu Long said was true.

Frozen Heart Arts is a must-train profound art in the Frozen Cloud Asgard.

Every disciple must reach a certain level, maintaining a calm and collected state where no desires would arouse them.

Yes, they are no different than emotionless ice statues.

However, Chu Yue couldn't accept her sect getting wronged. Her master is the palace master of the Frozen Cloud Asgard. As her disciple, she must keep upholding the sect's image.

"This is our sect rule... Outsider has no say on this matter."

"It doesn't matter, your head. I must say your sect's rule is stupid." Yu Long mocked indifferently. "With this rule, has your sect created an Overlord? Or maybe Monarch?"

"If not, then your rule is meaningless."

"Rule is placed to maintain something. Your sect maintains futile ambition that has no issue prevailing in this era."

"A kid like me could defeat you. I wonder what will happen in the future."

"Haha, think about it, Senior. Think about the real goal of your sect!" He laughed and jumped away, leaving her alone.

Chu Yueli muted herself, but she could hear some people commenting on her from afar.

"Is she still not listening?" Someone asked Yu Long.

"Yeah."

"It's not just her heart that likes ice, her brain too. The technique she trained must have lowered her IQ."

"Pfft, how could you say something like that." The others laughed, making Chu Yueli feel ridiculed.

The journey continued, and Chu Yueli gradually saw the sun replaced by the white moon.

'Meaningless.'

'Purpose.'

'Why master and previous palace masters condone such rules...'

Chu Yueli closed her eyes and recalled her childhood memory.

At the time, her master was still kind and paid attention to her.

"Remember, Yuechan, Yueli."

"The Frozen Cloud Asgard's founder created the sect to take ill-fated girls and make them stronger. She gave them a chance to survive in this cruel world."

"However, she also left behind wise words... In the future, our sect will experience calamity."

"So, I hope you can become pillars of Frozen Cloud Asgard at that time."

"Yes, Master~!" The sisters replied with a determined expression.

Nevertheless, Chu Yueli felt the sect's goal become loose as time passed.

She has read the sect's history record and discovered the Frozen Cloud Asgard didn't follow the tradition of taking ill-fated girls anymore.

They began to take girls with outstanding appearance and talents.

Yet they haven't produced any Overlord or Monarch for years.

How laughable!

Chu Yueli heaved a sigh and mocked herself for being blind. She was too immersed in insecurity and focused on unimportant aspects of her life.

If she could rewind time, she'd like to take different steps.

"Here, have a taste."

Chu Yueli opened her mouth and relished the taste of Yu Long's cooking again. She was addicted.

After a while, she finished the fish and said, "It would be nice if you released me from this rope. I can eat by myself."

Yu Long shook his head and returned, "Unfortunately, I can't."

"You should have noticed it by now. The rope was 'purposely' created with unique materials that absorbed one's profound strength."

"However, its function remains vague no matter how you try to sense it, no?"

"It keeps puzzling me until now." Chu Yueli nodded.

"Then, I'll tell you the truth." Yu Long placed the plate away. "This rope actually absorbs the Yin Energy generated by the Frozen Cloud Arts you cultivated."

"And transfer it to me..."

"Y-You what??" Chu Yueli was shocked.

Yu Long smiled and snapped his finger, causing several snowflakes to appear.

Chu Yueli's eyes widened in disbelief.

"H-How did you use Frozen Cloud Arts?"

Yu Long made the snowflakes swirl gently, "Because your so-called 'Frozen Cloud Arts' is an incomplete technique."

"It's a defective cultivation art created for others without Ice Phoenix's bloodline could train it."

"By reducing the requirement, the profound arts contained a fatal weakness..."

"It is a weakness that could destroy Frozen Cloud Asgard if the outside world knows."

"Tell me." Chu Yueli responded firmly.

"Are you sure?"

"Tell me the weakness!"

Yu Long gazed into her eyes and said, "Your sect was lying..."

"What?!"

"Frozen Cloud Arts store ice energy into its practitioner's body."

"And the fatal weakness of this profound art is that any males who have a physical relationship with the practitioner will also inherit her cultivation alongside the energy she had painstakingly accumulated through vital yin."

"The saying that love between males and females will obstruct Frozen Cloud Art's cultivation is false. It's a lie to keep you ignorant."

"But you still take innocent girls outside and bring them to your sect, allowing them to walk on a thin thread of ice... They are in danger if others know about this matter."

"Your sect will be hunted."

"You'll become no different than cultivation resources, a pitiful livestock for others..."

"A chaotic end."

"N-N-No way..." Chu Yueli's world crumbled.

Her breathing becomes heavier.

Her body released cold sweat non-stop.

"Calm down, Senior!"

"Calm down!" Yu Long pinched her cheeks.

"How could I calm down in this situation!" Chu Yueli shouted back in anger.

Tears are coming from her eyes.

All this time, she believed the Frozen Cloud Arts was the way.

Her master taught how 'important' the profound art was for the Frozen Cloud Asgard. Yet she never told her about this matter.

Every disciple.

Her sister.

Everyone!

Chu Yueli shivered and gazed at Yu Long hopefully, "I-If you know this, then you should have a way to solve it, right?"

"Please tell me you have the way."

"Please..."

"Honestly, I have researched Frozen Cloud Arts for over a year." Yu Long scratched his nose. "I did discover the way to solve this problem."

"But..."

"It comes with a price."

"Price, price... I'll do anything." Chu Yueli was desperate. "I'll do anything as long as you tell me the method."

Yu Long shook his head helplessly and answered, "Be my servant, or maybe Maid?"

"Not just you, but the entire Frozen Cloud Asgard."

"So, I could protect you guys under my jurisdiction."

"After that, I will also alter your body and Frozen Cloud Arts to be more suitable with each other."

"This is difficult..." Chu Yueli has a complicated expression.

"The decision is yours." Yu Long shrugged casually.

"By the way, You will be the first test subject in this matter."

Chu Yueli bit her red lips and answered, "T-Then, I will be your maid from now on!"

"I'll devote my mind, body, and soul to you."

"Please accept me, Young Master."

'That was easy.' Yu Long hides a grin with his palm.

"Very well, Yueli. I hope you follow me wholeheartedly from now on."

"Yes!" Chu Yueli answered with unyielding determination.
