Chapter 455 Nalan Fei - Feng Xian'er
Chen Li and the others were already in Feng Bing'er's ice castle, and the women could breathe a sigh of relief because the spirit women were protecting them with their aura, so they could still move around freely.
However, the men experienced a different fate, and they were lying on the ice floor without being able to move their fingers, which happened because Chen Li asked the spirit women not to help them, and he wanted them to adapt more quickly to the gravity on the planet.
Lin Qingzhu and the others felt sorry for them, especially Liu Zhen, who was the oldest among them, so they asked the spirit women to help the men.
Unfortunately, the spirit women refused their request because all of them were men, so they had to try to the best of their abilities, or they would never be able to protect them. Beside, they warned Lin Qingzhu and the others that they would gradually retract their aura, so they had to quickly adapt to that gravity.
Afterwards, the spirit women took them to another area, leaving the men behind. They started training them by asking them to jog around the ice palace, causing them to sigh in resignation.
"Li'er, how can you move so freely?" Feng Ao asked as he tried to get up, but the gravity continued to pull him down.
As he continued trying to get up, Zhao Junye also said to him. "As far as I remember, you have only been training on this planet for a month, but you have already fully adapted to this gravity."
"Our son-in-law is an absolute freak, Brother Junye. Therefore, there is no need to be surprised." Su Yuan chimed in as his face became extremely red; even his facial muscles bulged out.
The fatty Yang Hao also lay on his back helplessly, as gravity rendered him unable to move. "Uncle Su is right! You are indeed a freak, Brother Chen!"
Unlike them, Liu Zhen laid down casually on the ice floor, and he preferred to get used to gravity first, so he didn't rush to try to get up.
"Haha." Chen Li laughed and spoke to them. "Previously, I was like you guys and couldn't move at all, and it even took me quite a while to stand up. Although I managed to stand up, I couldn't walk straight away, and it took me several days to be able to do so; it even took me a month to reach this ice castle. Anyway, the difference between us is that all of you have never trained your bodies, and I have been training using my equipment for several months, so my body is stronger than yours."
"Do we have to train using heavy weights like you, Son?"
Chen Li nodded at Liu Zhen. "It would be much better for you guys if you were to train like me, but you can only train within the Tianyi Realm, so your adaptation will be faster, and you will be able to overcome this gravity."
The four men sighed heavily after hearing that, and Yang Hao said to him. "You can send me in there, Brother Chen. After I get used to those iron weights, I will return to this planet to challenge this gravity."
"Me too." Feng Ao, Zhao Junye, and Su Yuan said at the same time.
"En." Chen Li nodded and asked Liu Zhen. "Do you want to go in there too, father-in-law?"
"No need, I'll stay here."
Chen Li then sent the other four men into the Tianyi Realm and gave them some iron weights to practice, and he then said this to Liu Zhen. "Father-in-law, you can tell me directly if you also want to go in, and I will train in another area for now."
"All right."

"Hmm? What's so special about this restaurant? Why is it so full of visitors?" Nalan Fei wondered to herself as she stood in front of the Qingshui Restaurant.
At first, Nalan Jie wanted to go with her, but Nalan Fei refused because she wanted to find information about Lin Qingzhu and the others, and they should already recognize him. She went straight into the restaurant and ordered some dishes, and she kept looking around for the women, but she naturally couldn't find them. However, she raised her eyebrows when she saw two women chatting at the table at the end of the room, and she certainly knew one of them because she was Yang Nianxue. 'Who exactly is that crimson-haired woman? Is she really the foreigner who came from another realm? How did she get that close to the old woman? Could it be because she saved Di Chen from the hands of those assassins?'

Feng Xian'er herself noticed Nalan Fei's glance at her, and she asked. "Who is that woman, Aunt Ninxue? She's been looking at us ever since she came in."
"Hmm?" Yang Nianxue turned to her for a moment before telling Feng Xian'er. "Nalan Fei is Nalan Jie's little sister, and she is one of the disciples of the Dark Moon Sect."
"The Dark Moon Sect?" Feng Xian'er raised her eyebrows upon hearing that, and her eyes turned crimson. "I see; she has the darkness element, so it's no surprise if she joins that sect."
"You're right." Yan Nianxue replied with a nod of approval. "There are many people in this city who hate cultivators with the darkness element, including people from the Yu and Qin Clans, and they have hated people like them for so long."
"Oh? Why do they hate them so much?"
Yang Nianxue sighed softly before explaining it to her. "In the past, the Yu and Qing Clans were stronger than the Nalan Clan, but several vital figures from both clans were killed by people from the Dark Moon Sect; even my mother-in-law almost suffered the same fate as them. Besides, Wu Xie'er came from the Wu Clan in the western region, and her father, Wu Ling, also had good relations with all the clans in that region. That's why they thought that both clans had something to do with the deaths of their people, so Nalan Xu sent his daughter there to protect her. However, I heard that Nalan Fei was talented in using the darkness element, and a powerful elder from that sect took her as his direct disciple."
"So that's why no one dares to attack the Nalan Clan, and that's because they have those clans as their backers." Feng Xian'er said with an understanding nod before she stood up, as she glanced at Nalan Fei with a faint smile. "She came here after she found out what happened in her clan, and she wanted to find out information about us, so I'll talk to her now."
Seeing Sun Xing'er jump directly onto her shoulders, Yang Nianxue didn't stop Feng Xian'er from talking to Nalan Fei, but she was curious about her smile. 'If I think about it, she is a cunning girl, and she must have planned something against her.'

"Hmm?" Nalan Fei, who was enjoying her meal, was surprised to see Feng Xian'er standing in front of her, but she remained calm and smiled casually. "What can I do for you?"
"Shouldn't I be the one asking that?" Feng Xian'er asked back as she sat opposite Nalan Fei. "How are the dishes at our restaurant?"
"They're delicious." Nalan Fei replied as she ate a piece of meat. "I have eaten various kinds of food from various regions, but I have never tasted such delicacies before."
"That's great if you like them." Feng Xian'er then asked her. "Did your parents order you to come here to investigate us, Nalan Fei?"
Nalan Fei's hand stopped midair as she looked at Feng Xian'er. "Nope, I came here of my own accord. First, I was curious about your dishes because my mother said that they were delicious, and her words were indeed true. Second, I was curious about your identity because my family suspected that you guys came from another realm, and they also suspected that you had done something to the people of my clan."
"Well, their guess is correct; we did come from another realm, but I won't tell you anything." Unlike Chen Li, who was too cautious, Feng Xian'er was bolder and did not feel the slightest fear towards the Nalan Clan. "You are braver than your family members; they don't even dare to come directly to us. Is this because you feel safe with your master's protection?"
"Haha." Nalan Fei laughed softly when she heard that. "It's natural for us to use other people's strength as our own, right? Moreover, he is my master, and he cares about me a lot."
"That's right." Feng Xian'er nodded in agreement with her.
Nalan Fei then told Feng Xian'er to deter her. "For your information, my master is powerful, and the Di Clan will not be able to protect you from him, so you better not think of using underhanded methods against me, or you will regret your actions."
"Is that so?" Feng Xian'er asked with a smile. "You can rest assured, I am a fighter, not a cheater, so I will never use underhand methods against you. However, you are wrong if you think we will be afraid of your master, and I dare to guarantee that he will regret it if he fulfills your request to come to this city to do something against us."
"How did you know that?" Nalan Fei was truly shocked inside after she heard that.
