Chapter 415: Chapter 415: The Encounter
"Descendants of immortals, inheriting their bloodline... this, this is too monstrous!"
"Freezing three thousand miles? Turning the sea into ice? This is an entire ocean! And she froze it with just a wave of her hand?"
Everyone couldn't help but swallow hard, looking at Bei Qingsi in shock. With such power, even if they all attacked together, they wouldn't be her match. They had previously said they would protect her, but now it seemed like she didn't need any protection at all.
Bei Qingsi had intentionally revealed her absolute strength to make these senior brothers wary of her, so they wouldn't pester her anymore. After all, Bei Qingsi was kind-hearted, and this was her way of rejecting them all.
Everyone frowned.
"See that? From now on, when you see Bei Qingsi, don't be so attentive. Keep your distance," suddenly, a voice rang out behind them.
Everyone turned around to see a handsome man with blue hair standing there.
If Nian Youyou were here, she would recognize him immediately. He was the man who had watched Zhong Shan and Jian Ao defeat the Demon Legion with her last time. But while Nian Youyou had followed Zhong Shan, the blue-haired man had followed Jian Ao.
"Greetings, Martial Uncle!" Everyone respectfully greeted.
"Greetings, Martial Uncle!" Bei Qingsi also greeted respectfully.
"Haha, Bei Qingsi, you haven't even taken a master in the Longevity Realm yet. Why are you calling me Martial Uncle? Maybe soon we will be fellow disciples. You can just call me 'Bing Xuan'," the blue-haired man laughed.
"In the Longevity Realm, the rules state that newcomers are the lowest-ranking disciples unless promoted by a True Lord or Dao Lord. I should still address you as Martial Uncle," Bei Qingsi said, frowning slightly.
Bing Xuan looked at Bei Qingsi, his expression flickering before he smiled and said, "Alright, since you insist, you can call me Martial Uncle."
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" Bei Qingsi immediately responded.
"Over there, they are about to break free from the ice," the small leader who had led the way shouted.
Everyone turned their heads to look. Indeed, cracks were appearing on the iceberg that encased the small boat, and the cracks were rapidly increasing, as if the ice could break at any moment.
They all stepped forward and quickly flew towards the distant iceberg.
In no time, they arrived at the iceberg.
"Crack, crack, crack~"
The cracks on the iceberg were increasing, and everyone watched coldly. Led by Bing Xuan, they all stared intently at the ice.
"Boom~"
All the ice around the large boat shattered with a loud explosion.
But in the presence of the powerful Bing Xuan, the shards of ice automatically dispersed, not a single piece reaching the crowd.
The ice was broken, but an even greater threat loomed.
Old Zhao stood at the bow of the ship, coldly looking up into the sky.
Zhong Shan, Mr. Corpse, and a group of people stood behind Old Zhao, all looking up at the uninvited guests.
Seeing the people in the sky, Zhong Shan was momentarily stunned. Bei Qingsi?
Mr. Corpse, although he had never seen Bei Qingsi before, recognized her from Lin Xiao's previous descriptions.
Mr. Corpse looked at Zhong Shan, who shook his head, indicating not to reveal themselves now.
"Who are you?" Old Zhao asked sternly.
"You tell me, who do you think we are?" Bing Xuan responded with a sinister smile.
"I have already spoken with them. They will pretend to be like you, people with activated Divine Seals. We just need to take them to the headquarters and kill the master. After that, they will take us to the Longevity Realm, where the True Lords or Dao Lords can remove our Divine Seals. We might even be able to cultivate near the Longevity Realm," Old Zhao said.
After Old Zhao finished speaking, there was a moment of silence among everyone. Although they didn't want to be slaves, the fear instilled by their "master" was immense.
"What if they can't kill the master..." someone voiced their concern.
At this moment, someone needed to step forward and bolster everyone's courage. Zhong Shan immediately stood up and said, "I am willing. The Longevity Realm must have deployed many people this time. One of the Four Great Sacred Lands, the Longevity Realm, can't possibly fail to defeat the master's Demon Legion. I am willing to take a chance. If we don't, we will eventually be poisoned to death. I don't want to die, nor do I want to be a slave. Immortality is my dream. Even if I can't achieve immortality, I want to live freely. I've had enough of these days."
Old Zhao gave Zhong Shan an approving look.
Sure enough, after Zhong Shan spoke, everyone became resolute.
"I am willing too!"
"Me too!"
Everyone expressed their willingness. Old Zhao smiled and nodded.
The group once again came out of the cabin. Outside, the icy plain had been melted by Bei Qingsi, turning into a vast ocean. This time, the looks everyone gave the people from the Longevity Realm had changed.
"Then, you will join us as those who have just activated their Divine Seals. My daughter unfortunately passed away recently, so you will impersonate her. However, your cultivation levels?" Old Zhao pointed at Bei Qingsi.
"Don't worry, we have our methods to conceal our cultivation levels," Bing Xuan said.
Indeed, very quickly, everyone suppressed their aura, and to Old Zhao's eyes, their cultivation levels appeared to be at the Golden Core stage.
Old Zhao nodded in satisfaction and then said, "Your hair, it's too conspicuous."
He pointed at Bei Qingsi and Bing Xuan's white and blue hair, respectively.
"Hair?" Bing Xuan smiled slightly, gently brushing his hand over his hair, turning it jet black.
"Bei Qingsi, would you like me to teach you?" Bing Xuan looked at Bei Qingsi with a smile.
"No need, I have my own way," Bei Qingsi shook her head.
"Oh?" Bing Xuan was puzzled.
"May I trouble Old Zhao for a private room?" Bei Qingsi asked.
"Of course," Old Zhao nodded.
Bei Qingsi entered the private room alone, isolating it with an array, and began her preparations inside.
"Let me explain the Divine Seal to you, so you at least have an impression of it and can somewhat imitate a fake one," Old Zhao said.
"Alright," the people from the Longevity Realm nodded.
An hour later, Bei Qingsi emerged from the cabin. Her hair and eyebrows had turned jet black.
Bing Xuan looked at Bei Qingsi in surprise.
"Bei Qingsi, there's no trace of any spell on your hair. How did you do it? Would you teach me? Although my hair is black now, someone with higher cultivation can see through it at a glance," Bing Xuan said, trying to strike up a conversation.
Zhong Shan, standing nearby, smiled slightly because the method Bei Qingsi used to dye her hair was something he had taught her long ago.
Biting her lip, Bei Qingsi shook her head, "I'm sorry, Martial Uncle, but I can't share this method with anyone."
"Uh?" Bing Xuan was slightly puzzled.
Zhong Shan, however, showed a touched smile.
