"It seems that I can't hide anything from you. Little girl, I'm planning to go to the lower realm to look for it. As a descendant of the Qilin, I can't let it die outside. I want to see the beast if it's alive, and I want to see its corpse if it's dead!" Ice Spirit nodded.
If he didn't want to find his son, how could he let go of Wu Chen so easily?
When she heard Ice Spirit's words, she knew that Ice Spirit was just trying to calm her down by saying that he didn't want to fight with fog.
In fact, she was not that impulsive.
After some thought, Leng ruoxue asked carefully,""Senior, I wonder if your son has any special characteristics?"
"Characteristics? I don't know. When he was stolen by Wu Ya, my son was still an unborn egg, so I really don't know what characteristics he has. But I think he should be the same as me, an ice Qilin. " Even though she did not understand why Leng ruoxue asked this question, ice soul still answered truthfully after thinking about it.
"Uh!" Leng ruoxue was speechless. What was the difference between this and not saying anything?
However, she did not give up and continued to ask,""Senior, don't you Qilins have horns?"
"No? What's wrong?" Seeing that Leng ruoxue's questions were getting stranger, ice soul started to suspect something.
"Are you sure?" Leng ruoxue blinked her beautiful eyes as she asked. The reason why she asked this was because she suddenly thought of Bing Yi. However, that little fellow had a white jade-like horn on its head, which was obviously not in line with the appearance of the Qilin clan. Hence, Leng ruoxue was not sure if Bing Yi was related to the Qilin clan.
However, she was certain that the ice Phoenix was a Qilin. That little fellow could also confirm his own identity.
"I'm sure. An adult Qilin definitely doesn't have horns, but a young Qilin does! However, after we grow up, our horns will fall off on their own. That is also a sign of maturity for the Qilin clan. " Ice Spirit said after some serious thought.
Hearing his words, Leng ruoxue's eyes lit up. She knew it! The ice Phoenix was definitely a Qilin!
"Little girl, why do you ask?" Ice soul asked suspiciously when she noticed Leng ruoxue's abnormal reaction.
"I'm just curious. " Leng ruoxue replied calmly, then asked,""Senior, I heard from that Kirin bitch that without your Qilin race's nourishment, the little Qilin in the egg can't survive. Is that true?"
"It's true! When a young Qilin is born, it requires a lot of spiritual energy and our Qilin's own blood Qi. If there is no blood Qi and only spiritual energy, the growth of the young Qilin will be very slow. If it can't be born for a long time, it will suffocate in the egg one day. Therefore, the nurturing of the Qilin clan itself is very important. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost my mind instantly after listening to Wu Cheng's words!" Ice soul said sadly.
"Is there no other way to ensure little Qilin's survival?" Leng ruoxue could not help but ask.
"There is, but the Qilin clan is proud. Even a young Qilin would not do that." Ice soul sighed.
"What is it?" Leng ruoxue asked shamelessly as she saw how unclear Bing PO's words were.
"Find a human to recognize as its master!" Ice Spirit said honestly.
"This way, the little Qilin in the egg won't die?" Leng ruoxue confirmed once again.
"Yes, but after recognizing a human as its master, there is no way for the Qilin to be accepted by its clansmen. Therefore, our Qilin clan basically won't find a human master for ourselves." Ice Spirit said honestly.
"What if, and I'm saying what if, in order to survive, your son finds himself a human master?" Leng ruoxue probed. Although she wasn't sure if Bing Yao was related to Bing po by blood, she felt that she had to figure it out for Bing po who had lost his son or for Bing Yao.
"If that's the case, I'd be glad instead." Ice Spirit said. Then, she sighed and continued,"Little girl, it's been so many years. In fact, I don't dare to hold any hope for my son's survival, but there's always a trace of concern in my heart that I hope he can live well! I've let down this son of mine. Back then, in order to not be controlled by the fog, I decisively gave up on him, so I really don't have the right to let him acknowledge me again. Now, my only hope is that he can live well, even if it acknowledges a human master. At least that way, he still has the hope of survival!"
"As long as he's alive, that's good!" Ice Spirit choked as he added. His eyes were filled with tears.
When Leng ruoxue heard this, she felt bad. The ice Spirit now was just an ordinary father who wanted his child to live well. He had no other requests for his only son. As long as his son could live, he would be satisfied even if he didn't acknowledge him!
AI! What a deep fatherly love this was!
Although ice soul felt guilty about what had happened back then, Leng ruoxue did not think that he had made any serious mistakes. He just did not want his people to be controlled by fog. Thus, he would rather sacrifice his unborn son to fight for a chance of survival for the Qilin clan.
Leng ruoxue admitted that she couldn't do such a righteous thing. However, as a similarly proud person, Leng ruoxue could understand him. She was also very clear that if she was in Bing PO's position back then, she would have made the same choice.
The dignity of the strong could not be blasphemed by anyone!
That was her thought! Nothing else!
Now that she had learned from Ice Spirit's example, Leng ruoxue's desire to become a true expert was even stronger! Only by becoming an expert strong enough to contend against the fog ripple could she and the people around her live freely in the divine realm. Otherwise, the unstable element of the fog ripple would disturb them sooner or later.
Leng ruoxue admitted that she wasn't someone who would take a beating from the back. She wouldn't wait for someone to provoke her to the door before retaliating. Therefore, the fate of the Qilin clan had also strengthened her determination to cultivate.
At the same time, Leng ruoxue's aura changed. Ice Spirit was surprised to see this. He did not know what Leng ruoxue had suddenly thought of that caused her to be so excited!
"Little girl, what's wrong?" Ice Spirit ignored her sadness and looked at Leng ruoxue with concern.
"It's nothing. I just thought of the threat of rime ice and felt that I should work hard on my cultivation. I don't want her to harm the people around me. " Leng ruoxue said with determination.
"You should work hard on your cultivation. However, you should let nature take its course on the path of cultivation. You can't be too eager for quick success. Otherwise, it will only backfire!" Ice Spirit asked worriedly.
Leng ruoxue nodded and said,""Senior, you must be curious as to why I asked that question, right?"
"Yup! Little girl, can you answer my question now?" Ice soul smiled.
"Sure!" "In fact, I also know an ice Qilin. I met it in the lower realm." Leng ruoxue nodded.
"W-what did you just say?" Upon hearing this, ice soul's eyes widened in excitement. She looked at Leng ruoxue in disbelief.
He didn't hear wrong, did he? Did this little girl say that she knew an ice Qilin? And they met in the lower realm?
"I said I know an ice Qilin, and I met it in the lower realm." Leng ruoxue repeated when she saw that Ice Spirit was in disbelief.
"What does the ice Qilin look like? Does she look like me?" Ice Spirit quickly asked.
When Leng ruoxue heard this question, she was extremely conflicted.
What did he look like? What could she say? In her eyes, weren't all Qilins the same? how could she tell if they looked like each other?
"Senior, the ice Qilin I know should still be a child." After hesitating for a moment, Leng ruoxue decided to tell the truth.
"Childhood? The age doesn't match! If my son was still alive, he would be an adult by now!" Upon hearing that the ice Qilin that Leng ruoxue knew was still young, ice soul was extremely disappointed. No wonder Leng ruoxue had asked him if the Qilin had horns. Now, he could finally match it.
"I see! Does senior still want to see the Qilin I know?" Leng ruoxue asked even though she could hear the disappointment in Ice Spirit's voice.
"Let's meet! After all, it's a Cub of our Qilin clan, so it has to return to the Qilin clan. " Ice Spirit said after thinking.
"I'm afraid it can't go back. It has acknowledged a human as its master. " Leng ruoxue replied honestly.
"So that's how it is! Little girl, you asked so many questions before because of this, right?" Now, Ice Spirit was even more clear.
"Mm, in my heart, I hoped that Bing Yao could find his home and also hoped that senior could find his long-lost son, but now it seems that this was clearly my wishful thinking!" Leng ruoxue was also a little disappointed.
"No matter what, I still have to thank you!" Ice Spirit was very grateful for Leng ruoxue's thoughtfulness. He then said,""Little girl, you said that little guy is called Bing Yao? Is it your Beastie?"
"No, it's my friend 's! However, the ice Phoenix also lives with me, but it's now in closed-door cultivation with master. If senior wants to see it, I can wake it up. " Leng ruoxue smiled.
"Hmm, I'll see it before I leave! Little girl, I'll have to trouble you!" Ice Spirit agreed.
"Senior, let's find a quiet place." Leng ruoxue suggested. At the same time, she sent a voice transmission to Qing Jue, asking him to help wake Bing Yao up.
Ice Spirit nodded and brought Leng ruoxue to a remote mountain that he knew of.
Leng ruoxue looked at the huge, dense branches and leaves that blocked out the sky. She thought to herself,'this is indeed a quiet place!' However, the light here was completely blocked. Although it was not impossible to see one's fingers, it was still a little difficult to see the other party clearly!
