C250 A Man with a Heart of Ice
The Long Xiaoyao sighed.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Tianming asked.
"Forget it, it's nothing."
After saying that, the Long Xiaoyao poured out some wine from the wine jar and tasted it.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
"Three hundred years old wine brewed with daughter's red is really refreshing!"
That appearance did not show any signs of dissatisfaction. Zhan Tianming also did not understand what Long Xiaoyao was sighing about previously.
He completely did not understand.
After a moment, the Long Xiaoyao poured another bowl. At the same time, it did not forget to pour another bowl for Liu Qingcheng and Zhan Tianming.
"Come, come, let's drink together."
Zhan Tianming didn't stand on ceremony. He lifted the bowl and touched the Long Xiaoyao.
Liu Qingcheng appeared much more refined. Although he also touched the bowl with the two of them, he took a small sip and tasted it lightly.
With urgent matters in his heart, Zhan Tianming could not wait too long.
After drinking three bowls of wine, he asked the Long Xiaoyao, "Brother Xiao Yao, do you know about the rebirth of the phoenix?"
Hearing this, the Long Xiaoyao and Liu Qingcheng both looked at Zhan Tianming. They already knew what Zhan Tianming wanted to say.
This was also the reason why the Long Xiaoyao sighed.
Wine is good wine!
However, this wine was not just drinking wine, it was something that involved begging.
This kind of wine was not very satisfying to drink.
He hoped that Zhan Tianming would simply come and find him to drink. That way, this wine would be much more comfortable to drink.
After a moment, the Long Xiaoyao said, "You want to say, that little princess from Phoenix County?"
"That's right, that's her." Zhan Tianming nodded.
It seemed like Feng Wushuang had the Phoenix and Ming Tu and would undergo nirvanic rebirth. There were still some people who knew about it. Since the Long Xiaoyao knew about it, it would be much easier for him to inquire about it.
Under Zhan Tianming's expectant gaze, the Long Xiaoyao nodded slightly.
Finally, he said, "You want to help her overcome this crisis, right?"
Zhan Tianming was startled when he heard this.
The Long Xiaoyao already knew?
Seeing the expression on Zhan Tianming's face, the Long Xiaoyao explained, "You don't need to feel strange. Feng Wushuang was reborn from the ashes. Zhang Bao rode the lightning and left. Both Qing Shuai and I have already heard Senior Xin mention these two things. And it was already destined to happen."
"But..."
"Because of you, the danger of Feng Wushuang's nirvanic rebirth has increased by at least tenfold."
"What? Ten times?" Zhan Tianming was shocked.
He had already predicted that Feng Wushuang's rebirth would be more dangerous, but he had never thought that it would be ten times more dangerous.
If that was the case, wouldn't the chances of Feng Wushuang's nirvanic rebirth be extremely small?
Zhan Tianming couldn't help but look at the Long Xiaoyao and Liu Qingcheng with anticipation in his eyes.
"Is... Is there any way to help her nirvanic rebirth succeed?"
After asking this question, Zhan Tianming felt uneasy. He unconsciously clenched his fists and his palms began to sweat.
Is there?
Did he?
You must have it!
He had to have it!
If not, then wouldn't Wushuang turn into ashes?
No!
He would never allow such a thing to happen.
Absolutely not!
At this time, the Long Xiaoyao that was lifting the bowl of wine slowly raised its head to look at Liu Qingcheng and said, "Qing Shuai, I reckon that this matter will require your help. At the very least, help him buy some time."
Zhan Tianming's gaze completely landed on Liu Qingcheng when he heard this.
He had already heard some of it from the Long Xiaoyao's words.
There was a way to help Feng Wushuang undergo nirvanic rebirth successfully. However... It was probably very difficult, or even very difficult. Even Liu Qingcheng and the Long Xiaoyao could not do anything about it. They could only buy some time, but what time could they buy?
In the blink of an eye, all kinds of thoughts flashed across Zhan Tianming's mind.
However, he didn't say anything. He just threw his gaze at Liu Qingcheng.
Liu Qingcheng lightly sipped the wine in his bowl, seeming very calm.
It was as if shock could not be seen on his face at all. That calmness would accompany him for the rest of his life.
However, Liu Qingcheng did not reply.
Zhan Tianming was a little anxious.
However, he knew that he was the one asking for help, so he could only suppress the anxiety in his heart.
Under Zhan Tianming's gaze, Liu Qingcheng slowly stood up.
He turned around and left.
Zhan Tianming was stunned on the spot. His eyes were fixed on Liu Qingcheng.
What did he mean?
He didn't want to help?
Hum...
The void in front of Liu Qingcheng trembled and the figure disappeared.
"Sigh..."
The Long Xiaoyao let out a sigh.
"Brother Xiao Yao, what does Qing Shuai mean? Is he really not willing to help?" Zhan Tianming asked anxiously.
The Long Xiaoyao lifted up the wine, but it was somewhat unable to drink.
He shook his head and said, "Have you heard of Qing Shuai's legend?"
"Legend?"
Zhan Tianming was stunned and then remembered.
"You mean, when he stood on the Hundred Nights City and faced the first ray of sunlight, he shed a single tear, which caused thousands of girls in the Hundred Nights City to fall?"
"That's right, that's what happened." The Long Xiaoyao nodded.
Hearing this, Zhan Tianming seemed to have understood something.
It seemed like there must be some sort of secret behind Liu Qingcheng's actions back then.
Could it be that the tear was shed for someone?
Just as Zhan Tianming was guessing, the Long Xiaoyao sighed and said, "At that time, Qing Shuai had a lover who was very compatible with him. The beauty of that girl was even more beautiful than the four great beauties of Sky Wind Country. So beautiful! There was no flaw in her beauty, no matter how she looked. Or the heart."
The Long Xiaoyao seemed to be immersed in its memories.
He slowly narrated.
"That girl isn't from the Southern Region. Her family is very powerful, far more powerful than you can imagine."
"The people in her family are strongly opposed to the two of them being together. They even sent experts to hunt Qing Shuai. However, due to Senior Xin's limitations, no Martial King or above experts dare to step into the Sky Wind Country."
"However, to Qing Shuai who was only at the Martial Spirit Stage at that time, Martial King is already an extremely powerful existence."
"And..."
"In order to save Qing Shuai, that woman chose to sacrifice herself. "
"Qing Shuai's current heart... is that woman's."
"What?"
Zhan Tianming was completely stunned.
The heart in Qing Shuai's body belonged to that woman?
What kind of sad story had happened between the two of them?
"That heart is called the Ice Crystal Heart."
The Long Xiaoyao continued to narrate.
"If you want to help Feng Wushuang successfully undergo nirvana, the first thing you need to do is... His tears contain the power of ice crystals. Each drop is very beautiful. At the same time, the power of ice crystals. It was also the best thing to suppress the Nirvana Flame that had yet to fully erupt from Feng Wushuang's body."
"The Ice Crystal Tear can at least delay the time of rebirth to at least a hundred days later."1
"Secondly, you need to find the treasures of the Imperial Family of Windy Nation in these one hundred days. The treasure was hidden in the Sky Wind Country. It was buried by the first emperor of Imperial Family of Windy Nation. One of the treasures is very precious, it's called the Phoenix Blood Phoenix Crystal."
"Only this item can help Feng Wushuang safely pass this Nirvana Tribulation."
"If we can't find it, the possibility of Feng Wushuang surviving..."
"Not even one in ten thousand."
