A Promotion Guide in the Harem - C235
Leng Qiyue was caught off guard by the man’s pounce, and she was puzzled, why did she have to dodge so quickly? Had her martial arts regressed?
“Esteemed Empress, esteemed Empress …” The man’s mask fell off, revealing Xiao Die’s pitiful face.
“Xiao Die? Why is it you? ” Leng Qiyue never thought that the one who came would be Xiao Die.
“Esteemed Empress, save me …” Xiao Die’s tears were surging violently like an unstoppable sea.
Yan Su took out some silver and gave it to the family. They did not say anything and went back.
“Empress, let’s go back and talk.” Yan Su was cautious, seeing that something must have happened to Xiao Die, they could not just stand on the street and reminisce.
Leng Qiyue nodded, she pulled Xiao Die and went back to the big sized man’s house, and after entering she asked: “Xiao Die, what happened?”
Xiao Die took off her scarf, and two tentacles actually appeared on her head. Xiao Die cried as she said, “Empress, Pei Zan is almost done for. The Xue Ling is wasting its cultivation to extend his life. I wanted to help, but now that my mana has been sucked away, I can no longer fully transform into a human being. ”
Leng Qiyue frowned, and asked: “Where are they?”
“They are still at the top of the mountain, I came down to look for food, I have no money, and my appearance is shameful, so I had no choice but to steal it.”
Leng Qiyue anxiously pulled Xiao Die and said: “Quickly bring us up the mountain to look for them!”
Xiao Die shook her head and said, “No, there’s a blizzard today. We can’t go up the mountain.
Leng Qiyue sat on the wooden bed weakly, her heart filled with anxiety. Yan Su asked, “Xiao Die, how did you find them? What happened to them? ”
Xiao Die’s emotions stabilized a lot as she took a sip of hot water and said, “Han Liu asked me to transform into the Emperor to act with her. Afterwards, the Empress had a conflict with her. “Han Liu knew I couldn’t hide my true personality, so she might as well let me play along with her. That way, esteemed wangfei won’t know the truth from my mouth …”
Yan Su frowned: “Get to the point.”
Xiao Die rolled her eyes and said: “If I didn’t start from the beginning, how would you know why I came out?”
Yan Su was completely speechless, he just directly sat on the ground and fiddled with the fire brazier in front of his.
Leng Qiyue secretly cursed: “Stupid Liu, she was not willing to play tricks with me back then, but hid it from her and asked for Xiao Die’s help, causing me to drink a jar of dried vinegar for nothing.”
Looking at Leng Qiyue’s expression, Xiao Die laughed: “Empress, don’t blame Han Liu, she said that Empress’s temper is similar to mine, if I do not hide it from you, I’m afraid you will not reveal your true feelings.”
Leng Qiyue curled her lips, and said stubbornly: “Who said that? I have great talent in acting.”
Xiao Die laughed, and did not linger on this topic. Originally, I planned to look for them to play. In the end, when I went to a cave in the Snow Mountain to prepare for the night, I saw all of the guards the Emperor had sent to freeze to death in the cave. The strange thing was that they didn’t have any blood on them, so I wondered if they’d run into Snow Woman, who was said to seduce men and suck up their blood essence.
I searched for a long time, but didn’t find Pei Zan.
It was a snowy mountain, and there was almost no clear weather. The wind blew fiercely all day long, and snow was falling from the sky.
Xiao Die sighed, pulled on her cape and continued to climb.
The snowstorm got heavier and heavier, and there was only a white patch on the ground. She felt a stinging pain in her eyes, and rubbed her eyes to keep walking.
The road on the snow-capped mountain was not a straight slope, but a slope that led downwards. As a result, if one was not careful, they would be trapped in the snow-capped mountain and freeze to death. Xiao Die had lived for a few hundred years, so she still understood this much. She wasn’t like an inexperienced person who would think that she had been walking up the mountain path the entire time.
When she finally reached the top of the mountain, she still could not find Xue Ling and the rest. Just as she was about to give up in disappointment, her feet slipped and rolled down a slope.
Xiao Die crawled up and discovered that she had fallen into a cave of ice. There were glowing plants here, their seeds could fly like dandelion and also give off a cold glow like fireflies. The cold light was refracted by the icicles and spread to every corner of the icicles, allowing them to see the entire appearance of the icicles clearly.
This place was like a corridor. The two sides were dark. She randomly chose a direction to walk in and fumbled her way forward …
This ice road twisted and turned. Although there were no forks in the road, the scenery was still the same, and Xiao Die had thought that she had walked in the wrong direction several times.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the ground suddenly shook violently and she slid to the ground. The ice cones on the ceiling of the cave rained down like rain, and she was so shocked that she immediately rolled away.
Xiao Die wiped away the cold sweat on her forehead. Luckily she had dodged it quickly, otherwise there would have been more holes on her body.
She crawled up and sped up her footsteps, but not long after, the ground trembled again, and the ice cones on the ceiling of the cave started to fall down with a crackling sound. Xiao Die screamed and started to sprint, followed by a dense rain of ice cones chasing after her.
Just as Xiao Die was panicking, an intense light appeared in front of him. She knew that it was the cave entrance and that she must have walked out of the cave. Therefore, she mustered all her strength and sped up her pace. In one breath, she rushed towards the entrance of the cave. The light of hesitation was intense, so she simply closed her eyes and ran …
Running… Running… Suddenly, before she could react, her body warmed up and she fell into the water.
“Phew …” “Cough, cough …” Xiao Die immediately floated up, hugged a piece of ice and inhaled deeply.
Here… Surprisingly, it was not outside the snowy mountain. She was in a hot spring, but there was a lot of ice floating in the hot spring. Not too far away was the shore. On the shore, there were many pure white plants that were about an inch long, as if they were covered with a sheepskin carpet. It was a pity that this place was only three feet wide. The enormous ice wall shook upwards, and the end of it could not be seen.
Xiao Die crawled onto the shore, gasping for breath. The plants beneath him grew out from the ice, yet they emitted warmth, not cold at all.
When she had rested enough, she stood up and looked around. The hot spring was very big. It seemed to be a flowing water, because there were a lot of ice chunks drifting down from the upstream.
In the distance, there was a thick ice wall. On the ice wall, there were plants similar to morning glory. However, its leaves were needle-shaped and red.
It was dark on the right. He didn’t know where it was. The only thing he knew was that it was downstream. The left side was very bright, but he could not see the end. There was a very big turn, and he might be able to see it after turning around.
Xiao Die stepped on the fluffy plants and swam upwards. When she turned the corner, her eyes suddenly opened wide and the intense light forced her to squint her eyes … Faintly, she saw the Xue Ling …
