85: Find clues

Suddenly, a middle-aged woman appeared within the haotian mirror.

Su Youruo seemed to sense something, walked out of her room, and was very surprised to see the woman.

Before Su Youruo could speak, the middle-aged woman made her move, and the small courtyard where Su Youruo resided was instantly frozen.

Outside, it was spring all year round, but only the small courtyard where Su Youruo lived seemed like another Small World cut off from the rest.

Su Youruo wanted to speak but couldn't say anything, her expression very anxious. Li Daoxuan also felt uncomfortable watching, and Nangong Yin Xue beside him suddenly exclaimed:

"Ice Seal Heaven and Earth!"

"How could this be? It shouldn't be like this???"

"How could someone from the Ice Palace appear in the small secular Tianshui City?"

Li Daoxuan quickly said, "What do you know? Tell me quickly!"

Nangong Yin Xue seemed lost in thought, and after a while, she slowly said, "The Divine Ability that middle-aged woman used is 'Ice Seal Heaven and Earth.' This is a unique Divine Ability secret art of the Ice Palace."

"Ice Palace?"

"Why have I never heard of the Ice Palace? Is it a Sect?"

"The Ice Palace is not just a Sect, but also a very powerful Sect. However, people from the Ice Palace rarely leave the Northern Ice Domain, which is what surprises me greatly."

"As expected!" Li Daoxuan had long suspected it. He always felt that Su Youruo was not an ordinary person.

The fact was indeed so; Su Youruo's enemy was from the Ice Palace. Su Youruo was taken away by people from the Ice Palace. Li Daoxuan even guessed that Su Youruo should also be a Disciple of the Ice Palace.

However, no matter how powerful the Ice Palace was, Li Daoxuan had no fear.

"Can you tell me more about the Ice Palace in detail?"

Nangong Yin Xue said with a serious expression, "The Ice Palace is an ancient Sect, with a long Legacy."

"Although the Ice Palace's reputation isn't prominent now, that's because their Disciples rarely travel outside, and fewer and fewer people know of the Ice Palace's prestige."

"As for how powerful the Ice Palace truly is? I don't know, no one knows."

"Because no one can force out the Ice Palace's full strength!"

"Oh, right, the Ice Palace is called the Sacred Sect in the Northern Ice Domain; it is the strongest Sect in the Northern Ice Domain, without a doubt."

Li Daoxuan asked curiously, "Where exactly is the Ice Palace located?"

"The extreme north of the Northern Ice Domain."

"It is said that at the extreme north of the Northern Ice Domain, there is an boundless Northern Underworld Sea, and the Ice Palace is located deep within the Northern Underworld Sea."

"There's no specific location?"

Nangong Yin Xue rolled her eyes and said irritably, "I've only been to the Northern Ice Domain and only heard some legends. How could I possibly know the exact location of the Ice Palace?"

"You're not thinking of going to the Ice Palace, are you?"

Li Daoxuan did not deny it, but confidently said, "I'm going to bring my wife back."

Nangong Yin Xue: "..."

The scene within the haotian mirror continued to flow. Although no sound could be heard, a general idea could be guessed.

Su Youruo experienced surprise, panic, anger, calm, acceptance...

It was unknown what the middle-aged woman said to Su Youruo, but they must have reached an agreement. Finally, the middle-aged woman took Su Youruo and left.

The scene ended there!

Li Daoxuan and Nangong Yin Xue simultaneously withdrew their magical power, and the Li family's small courtyard fell into silence.

Nangong Yin Xue saw Li Daoxuan deep in thought and did not disturb him.

Li Daoxuan knew that Su Youruo must have agreed to the middle-aged woman's request, and only then did she spare the rest of the Li family.

In any case, Li Daoxuan finally found a clue about Su Youruo. This could be considered good news, right? At least Li Daoxuan knew where to look for her.

"What do you plan to do?"

"What else can I do? I must go there."

Nangong Yin Xue said, "How about I go with you? After all, I'm a little more familiar with the Northern Ice Domain."

"No need!"

"Even if I'm going to the Ice Palace, it won't be now. I need to arrange things at home properly before I can set off."

Nangong Yin Xue said seriously, "Although your strength is not weak, and there's no big problem for you to go to the Northern Ice Domain, if you want to cross the Northern Underworld Sea, that's simply seeking death."

"Legend says the Northern Underworld Sea is full of dangers. You must be careful."

"Hmm! Now that this matter is settled, are you returning to the Heavenly Dao Sect?"

Li Daoxuan changed the subject, no longer discussing the Ice Palace.

"I'm preparing to go back. If you want to find the Ice Palace, remember to bring me along. I'll go with you."

"We'll see then!"

How could Li Daoxuan bring Nangong Yin Xue? Nangong Yin Xue was the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dao Sect; she needed to oversee the Heavenly Dao Sect and handle Sect affairs.

Also, since he knew it was fraught with danger, Li Daoxuan certainly couldn't take her.

The two left Tianshui City and headed towards the Heavenly Dao Sect. Along the way, Nangong Yin Xue told him many things about the Northern Ice Domain, some of which she had experienced personally, and some she had learned from consulting Sect classics.

Li Daoxuan listened carefully and committed them to memory.

"Let's part here!"

With the Heavenly Dao Sect's gate in sight, Nangong Yin Xue stopped Li Daoxuan from accompanying her further.

"We're already at the Sect. How about I go in and take a look?"

Li Daoxuan had almost forgotten that he was a Disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Since becoming an Inner Sect Disciple, he had never returned to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

However, even though Li Daoxuan was not in the Sect, legends about him circulated within the Sect.

The legend wasn't about how much of a Genius Li Daoxuan was, but that he had married three Fairies of the Sect at once, and most importantly, these three Fairies were the most outstanding Disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

All male Outer Sect Disciples took Li Daoxuan as their role model. After all, Li Daoxuan was an ordinary Disciple who came from the Outer Sect. If he could rise against the odds, why couldn't they?

Inner Sect Disciples were not very friendly towards Li Daoxuan. All the male Disciples wished to 'knife' Li Daoxuan.

Can't you leave some hope for your Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers?

As for the Personal Disciples, there was more disdain, or rather, envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The disdain was because they felt Li Daoxuan had gotten lucky, a complete pretty boy.

There were also arrogant Personal Disciples secretly eyeing the Sect Master, after all, the Sect Master was the Heavenly Dao Sect's acknowledged number one Genius, number one beauty, number one goddess...

If they knew that Li Daoxuan had already... no, that he had been 'reversed' by their goddess, they wouldn't know what to think.

"You go back! Why go to the Sect? Do you still remember that you are a Disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect?"

Nangong Yin Xue touched her belly and glared at Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan suddenly realized. At this moment, Nangong Yin Xue's pregnancy was still visible. Although not too obvious, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance.

She was afraid of attracting attention, which would damage the Sect Master's majestic, dominant, and aloof image.

"Then I'll leave."

"If you miss me, or if anything happens, remember to find me in Dragon Abyss."

"Nagging!"

Nangong Yin Xue flew away directly, at an incredible speed.

At the Heavenly Dao Sect's gate, two guarding Disciples rubbed their eyes and simultaneously asked, "Did something just fly past???"

"I think I felt it too, but it also seemed like nothing."

"Then what should we do?"

"Hey! Don't worry, does anyone dare to force their way into the Heavenly Dao Sect?"

"True!"

Li Daoxuan watched the disappearing Nangong Yin Xue, shook his head helplessly, and then headed towards Dragon Abyss.

What Li Daoxuan didn't know was that the Heavenly Dao Sect was about to explode.
