After the yandere fairies were reborn, they all wanted to possess me!

The next day. Early morning.

Su Chen was awakened by the cold.

Literally, "wake up from being frozen".

When he opened his eyes, he found that his entire body was... enveloped in a thin layer of ice.

It looks like a human-shaped ice sculpture.

"..."

Su Chen tried moving his fingers.

Click...

The ice layer broke apart.

He struggled to sit up, and shards of ice fell off his body with a clatter.

I looked down.

The gray linen shorts he was wearing were frozen stiff and would crumble at the slightest touch.

"..."

Su Chen sighed.

have to.

The clothes are ruined.

He remembered that there seemed to be clothes prepared by Ling Qianxue in his storage ring.

A thought arose.

A plain white Taoist robe... appeared out of thin air in my hand.

The material is soft and smooth, with a faint shimmering light flowing across its surface.

It is woven from spirit silkworm silk and comes with its own cleaning and defensive formations.

Su Chen didn't stand on ceremony and put it on directly.

The Taoist robe fits perfectly.

After wearing it... my whole demeanor changed.

He went from being a poor, penniless boy to... a disciple of a celestial sect with a somewhat otherworldly air.

Just ...

Her face was still a little pale.

It's frozen!

"This Jade Ice Bed... its effects are powerful, but it's too painful..." Su Chen rubbed his arms, feeling the cold air still seeping out from between his bones.

but……

He looked inside his head.

The icy blue spiritual energy within my body... has grown considerably stronger than yesterday.

It has already firmly reached the peak of the first level of Qi Refining.

It's possible to break through to the second floor at any time.

"Mystic Ice Pill + Frost Jade Ice Bed + Spirit Gathering Array... This cultivation speed is truly outrageous..." Su Chen clicked his tongue.

At this rate...

He should be able to reach the third level of Qi Refining in three days at most.

Ten days... Reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining is not a dream.

A month...maybe I can break through to the Foundation Establishment stage?

That speed...

In a game, it's practically like having a cheat code!

Although he was definitely cheating.

"Chen'er".

A cold, clear voice suddenly rang out from behind.

Su Chen was startled and turned around abruptly.

Ling Qianxue... had somehow appeared behind him.

He was still wearing a plain white Taoist robe, his silver hair was as white as snow, and he was barefoot on the ice.

She was holding a jade bowl in her hand.

The bowl... contained an unknown medicinal liquid, exuding a rich spiritual energy and a milky aroma?

"Good morning, Master..." Su Chen smiled.

Ling Qianxue did not respond.

She walked over and handed the jade bowl to him.

"I drank it," she said.

Su Chen took the bowl and glanced down at it.

The liquid was thick, and a few...flower petals were floating on the surface?

"What is this...?" he wondered.

"Ice Spirit Milk," Ling Qianxue explained calmly, "a specialty of Snow Moon Peak, which can nourish the meridians and stabilize cultivation."

"..."

Su Chen silently picked up the bowl and took a sip.

It has a smooth and mild taste, with a subtle sweetness and milky aroma.

After drinking it... a warm current spread from my stomach, instantly dispelling the chill in my body.

Comfortable!

He gulped down the whole bowl in a few mouthfuls...

Then, as if still wanting more, he licked his lips.

"Master... is there anything else?" he asked eagerly.

Ling Qianxue glanced at him.

then……

She reached out and gently wiped away a drop of residual medicine from the corner of his mouth.

The movements were very natural.

The moment her fingertips brushed against his lips... Su Chen froze.

Ling Qianxue seemed unaware of his stiffness.

She withdrew her hand and put the medicine into her mouth.

"That's all," she said. "One bowl a day, any more... you can't handle it."

Su Chen: "..."

He looked at Ling Qianxue's matter-of-fact expression...

My brain... is going on and on again with alarms going off like crazy!

This action...

That's way too intimate!

No!

We are here...

Is that correct?

Even if the affection level is raised to 100 in the game, Ling Qianxue would still take the initiative to do this!

This Ling Qianxue...

There's definitely a big problem!

"Today..." Ling Qianxue turned around and walked out of the Ice Palace, "I will teach you swordsmanship."

"Sword techniques?" Su Chen was taken aback. "Master... this disciple is only at the first level of Qi Refining..."

"Even at the first level of Qi Refining, you can practice swordsmanship." Ling Qianxue didn't even turn her head. "Follow me."

"……oh."

Su Chen had no choice but to follow.

We stepped out of the ice palace.

Outside... is the plaza atop Snow Moon Peak.

It was a vast, empty space.

The ground was covered with smooth ice bricks, which shimmered with a pale blue luster in the morning light.

Ling Qianxue walked to the center of the square and stood still.

then……

She turned around and looked at Su Chen.

"Watch closely."

She reached out her hand.

"Buzz!"

The ice crystal longsword... automatically unsheathed itself and fell into her hand.

The sword trembled slightly, emitting a clear and melodious sound.

The moment Ling Qianxue gripped the sword...

Her entire demeanor... has changed.

His previous aloofness and indifference instantly transformed into a chilling sword intent!

It was as if her entire being... had transformed into a drawn sword!

"First move..."

She spoke softly.

then……

A flick of the wrist.

A flash of sword light!

Swish!

A streak of icy blue sword energy... shot out from the sky!

It drew an arc in the air, and then... disappeared.

"Did you understand?" Ling Qianxue sheathed her sword and looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen: "..."

He understood... my foot!

I saw a flash of light! And then it was gone!

How can I learn this?!

"Didn't understand?" Ling Qianxue tilted her head. "Then... let's look at it again."

She raised her sword again.

This time...

The movements... have slowed down considerably.

It was so slow that Su Chen could see every subtle movement of her wrist and every change in the trajectory of the sword.

The icy blue sword energy... reappeared.

But this time...

The sword energy did not dissipate immediately.

Instead, it flows slowly in the air.

Like an ice-blue ribbon.

"This is the 'Flowing Cloud Style'," Ling Qianxue explained as she demonstrated. "The sword intent is like water, continuous and unbroken. The emphasis is on 'softness' and 'resilience', rather than 'hardness' and 'sharpness'."

Su Chen stared at the sword energy...

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into my mind!

This swordsmanship...

It seems to be in the game!

It's the starting stance from Ling Qianxue's unique sword technique, "Ice Soul Sword Art"!

However, in the game... players have to complete a series of prerequisite tasks and raise Ling Qianxue's favorability to 80 or higher before she will teach them the first move.

just now……

Direct teaching?!

"Did you understand?" Ling Qianxue asked again.

Su Chen quickly nodded, "I-I understand!"

"Then you come here." Ling Qianxue handed over the sword.

Su Chen took the sword.

It felt cold to the touch.

and……

Very heavy.

This sword looks light, but its actual weight... is at least 100 pounds!

Even with his strength at the first level of Qi Refining... it was a bit difficult for him to hold it.

"Circulate your spiritual energy and pour it into the sword," Ling Qianxue instructed from the side.

Su Chen took a deep breath and mobilized the icy blue spiritual power within his body...

Slowly pour it into the longsword.

hum!

The sword gleamed slightly.

It seems a little light.

"Then..." Ling Qianxue walked behind him.

Reach out your hand...

From behind... he grasped the hand holding his sword.

"!!!"

Su Chen froze.

Ling Qianxue... pressed her entire body against his back.

Her petite body... was almost completely embedded in his back.

The silver hair brushed against his neck.

Cool. Soft.

And... that faint lotus fragrance.

"Relax." Ling Qianxue's voice... whispered in his ear, "Follow my strength...go."

She held his hand...and slowly raised it.

The sword's edge... points forward.

then……

With a slight flick of the wrist.

"Whoosh—"

A faint wisp of icy blue sword energy shot out from the tip of the sword.

Although it is very fine and very faint.

but……

It's definitely taken shape!

"How are you feeling?" Ling Qianxue asked.

Su Chen: "..."

He felt... a slight numbness in his back.

especially……

Ling Qianxue... clung tightly to his back.

...Even through two layers of fabric, he could clearly feel the amazing...elasticity.

With the movement of her arm... a gentle rubbing.

It's causing widespread panic!

"It's...it's alright..." Su Chen's voice was a little dry.

"Then let's continue." Ling Qianxue seemed completely unaware of his strange behavior.

She held his hand...

It was demonstrated again.

This time...

The sword energy... is a little thicker than before.

"Very good." Ling Qianxue released her grip, took a step back, and said, "Try it yourself."

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

but……

The soft touch on my back... seems to still linger.

He shook his head, forcing himself to concentrate.

then……

Based on the feeling I had just experienced, I circulated my spiritual energy and flicked my wrist!

"Whoosh!"

A streak of icy blue sword energy... shot out from the sky!

It's still a bit weak.

but……

It's much better than before!

"Not bad." Ling Qianxue nodded. "Today... we'll practice this one move. We'll practice until we can unleash ten sword energies in a row without them dissipating."

Su Chen: "...Yes."

Ten sword energies... why aren't they dissipating yet?

With his current cultivation level...

I'm afraid we'll have to practice until dark.

"Practice it." Ling Qianxue turned and walked towards the Ice Palace. "I'll check at noon."

"..."

Su Chen watched her retreating figure...

He sighed.

then……

He resignedly raised his sword.

Begin...practice it over and over again.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

……

Time... passed little by little.

The sun gradually rises higher.

The summit of Snow Moon Peak... remains cold.

But Su Chen practiced until he was sweating profusely.

I'm tired.

This sword technique... consumes too much spiritual energy!

He was only at the first level of Qi Refining, and his spiritual power was already limited. After practicing a dozen times, it was almost depleted.

and……

My arms... are starting to ache too.

"Huff... huff..."

Su Chen leaned on his sword, panting heavily.

I looked up at the sky.

It's probably... 9 AM.

There is still one hour until noon.

"No... I need to rest for a while..." He sat down cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing to recover his spiritual energy.

Not long after he entered meditation.

Whoosh!

A whooshing sound suddenly came from afar!

Su Chen suddenly opened his eyes!

On the horizon... a fiery red streak of light was flying toward Snow Moon Peak at an extremely fast speed!

"That is...?"

He stared blankly.

The light stream was getting closer and closer.

at last……

They stopped at the edge of the plaza atop Snowmoon Peak.

The light dissipated.

A figure was revealed...exquisitely alluring and seductive.

A bright red palace dress.

Hot body.

Peach blossom eyes.

And...those captivating, mesmerizing eyes, seemingly brimming with tears.

Chu Hongxiu!

Elder of Punishments of the Qingyun Sect!

In the game... she is one of the romanceable characters known for her "bold and charming" nature!

Why is she here?!

In the game, Chu Hongxiu and Ling Qianxue... don't have a good relationship!

Although both were high-ranking members of their sects, one was "ice" and the other was "fire," with completely opposite personalities, and they rarely interacted.

even……

There were even conflicts in some parts of the story!

just now……

Chu Hongxiu... actually dared to storm up Snow Moon Peak?!

What is she trying to do?!

The visitor is probably up to no good!

When gods fight, mortals suffer!

Su Chen instinctively wanted to dodge...

But it was too late.

Chu Hongxiu... has already seen him.

Those peach blossom eyes... swept over him.

then……

A charming smile slowly curved her lips.

"Yo~"

When she spoke, her voice was soothing and captivating.

"Isn't this... Junior Sister Ling's newly accepted little apprentice?"

"He's...quite handsome!"
