<h4>Chapter 3024: A Single Message</h4>


    Shui Yn’s choice delighted Ancestor Qi Feng. He sighed and said, “Among the four protectors of the Ice Goddess Hall, Wu Hanmitted betrayal and Bing Qin died. Now, only you and Cai Xia remain. Actually, during the years you went missing, Cai Xia constantly thought of you. She has already waited arduously for several million years in our Chillwind sect, and her efforts have finally paid off today. She has finally waited until your return. The two of you can finally reunite.”


    With that, Shui Yun’s gaze rippled. She could not help but recall the past they had spent together.


    Back then, the rtionship between the four of them had been so harmonious. They helped one another and supported one another like real sisters. Looking at it now, one of them was dead, and one of them hadmitted betrayal. Only she and Cai Xia remained now.


    The series of events filled Shui Yun with sorrow.


    Shui Yun sighed inside. She immediately approached ancestor Qi Feng.


    Ancestor Qi Feng smiled kindly like a friendly old man watching his child return home after leaving many years ago.


    But covertly, ancestor Qi Feng had already used a secret technique,municating with the Chillwind sect in an extremely discreet manner.


    “<i>The n has seeded. Prepare the teleportation formation in the forbidden grounds immediately. Once Shui Yun reaches the Chillwind sect, send her away immediately.</i>”


    Ancestor Qi Feng directly passed this news onto the other two Grand Prime ancestors of the Chillwind sect.


    In the Chillwind sect, the two Grand Primes waiting there also paid close attention to the situation of the Snow sect. As soon as they heard ancestor Qi Feng’s message, they immediately roused with attention. They exchanged nces, and their eyes were both filled with delight.


    “Let’s go!” In the next moment, the two ancestors vanished. They appeared in the forbidden grounds deep within the Chillwind sect as quickly as they could.


    The forbidden grounds were not empty. Apart from the two ancestors, there was an enchanting woman in a white dress.


    If Shui Yun were present, she would immediately realise that the woman was one of the four protectors of the Ice Goddess Hall, Cai Xia!


    “Greetings, ancestors!” However, when she saw the two ancestors of the Chillwind sect, Cai Xia immediately greeted them with a bow. Her respect for thempletely originated from the bottom of her heart. None of it was faked.


    “Shui Yun is about to arrive in the Chillwind sect. Elder Zi, we need to gain her trust first and make her lower her guard, so we’ll need you to personally show yourself when the timees. Be ready,” one of the ancestors said sternly.


    “You must not make even the slightest mistake at a critical time like this. Elder Zi, you must firmly remember all of Cai Xia’s actions and mannerisms. You can’t even show the slightest hint that you’re actually someone else. After all, ancestor Lan of the Heavenly Crane n and the Icecloud Founding Ancestor of the Snow sect are watching. Apart from them, there’s also the Rain Abbess of unknown alignment whose strength is unimaginably great, so we can’t afford any idents at all, or it won’t just be our Chillwind sect. Even we will be doomed forever,” the other ancestor said solemnly.


    Cai Xia was serious. She said with the utmost confidence, “Please do not worry, ancestors. When I possessed Cai Xia, I didn’t just obtain her body. I also devoured her soul at the same time, merging perfectly with all of her memories. Fooling Shui Yun will be a piece of cake.”


    “That would be for the best. We don’t have to worry then.” The two ancestors of the Chillwind sect nodded in satisfaction. Then they looked at the forbidden grounds and said, “Fooling Shui Yun won’t be a problem, so the next greatest challenge is to set up the teleportation formation here. The Rain Abbess possesses extremely great achievements with the Laws of Space. Hopefully the teleportation formation here will keep functioning.”


    The other ancestorughed at that and said, “You canpletely rx. This teleportation formation disc is the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths’ creation. Even though the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths’ had created it out of pure interest, it still touches on that domain after all. It’s so profound that the Rain Abbess’ Laws of Space definitely cannot interfere with it.”


    “Once Qi Feng brings Shui Yun here, we’ll activate the teleportation formation immediately and leave. Even if the Rain Abbess and the Icecloud Founding Ancestor are nearby, they can’t stop us. As for the Chillwind sect, it can just be destroyed. We’ll definitely be able to stage a return once we obtain the source of the Snow Goddess’s powers.”


    “That’s right. When we return, we’ll definitely be glorious. When the timees, we’ll build a Chillwind sect that’s even more powerful than the current one. On top of that, if the me Reverend’s n seeds, that’ll definitely result in a new Grand Exalt. By then, we’ll have the support of a sovereign of the world. We can truly reign over the Ice Pole ne unopposed and sweep aside all obstacles.”


    ......


    “You must not. Shui Yun, we still don’t know whether the Chillwind sect is a friend or a foe. You cannot go to the Chillwind sect.”


    Above the Snow sect, the Icecloud Founding Ancestor spoke up and prevented Shui Yun from approaching ancestor Qi Feng. At the same time, she erupted with a powerful presence and forced back ancestor Qi Feng, saying coldly to him, “Qi Feng, leave immediately, or don’t me me for showing no mercy.”


    Ancestor Qi Feng clearly had his qualms as he faced the Icecloud Founding Ancestor’s threats, but when he recalled the great fortune hidden behind this matter, he roused with enthusiasm. His courage swelled up as a result. He forcefully withstood the Icecloud Founding Ancestor’s pressure and said sternly, “Icecloud Founding Ancestor, you can forget about overwhelming others with your powers. You’re clearly behaving like this because of your guilty conscience, which only proves that your Snow sect is definitely up to no good. On top of that, we can’t eliminate the possibility that you intentionally held that battle as a performance to gain Shui Yun’s trust.”


    “Shui Yun,e over here. Anyone who tries to stop you will only prove that they belong to the me Reverend. As for us, the Chillwind sect, even if you don’t trust me, you trust your good sister, don’t you?” Ancestor Qi Feng then said to Shui Yun.


    Shui Yun hesitated. Her gaze swept past the three groups of people. Compared to the Snow sect and the Heavenly Crane n, she was clearly leaning towards the Chillwind sect.


    The jade slip that ancestor Qi Feng had given her was truly a recording of Cai Xia. Whether it was her tone, expression, or mannerisms, it was no different from Cai Xia’s. That could not be faked.


    “Snow sect, as well as the Heavenly Crane n, if you haven’t betrayed the Ice Goddess Hall, then you have no right to limit my actions,” said Shui Yun. She was very firm with her decision, gradually approaching ancestor Qi Feng.


    The Icecloud Founding Ancestor’s face changed slightly, wanting to stop her by force. However, when she thought of what Shui Yun had said, she immediately dismissed that idea. Her face darkened.


    “Shui Yun, could you hear me out? You’re free to leave or stay after that. I definitely won’t interfere with your decision,” ancestor Lan said suddenly. As soon as she finished talking, she waved her hand and set up a sound-isting barrier.


    Only three people stood within the barrier. Apart from her and Shui Yun, there was He Qianchi.


    The moment the barrier was formed, Shui Yun heard a voice she could not be any more familiar with.


    “Protector Shui, I am Jian Chen. I am currently with the Heavenly Crane n. Bear in mind that I cannot expose my true identity yet. Don’t behave or react abnormally either. Come to the Heavenly Crane n.”


    The short message stirred waves in Shui Yun’s mind, preventing her from calming down.
