Chapter 1385: Snowflake Divine Sword's Domineering Power

Seeing them stunned, Zu An worried that the resentment might remain in their bodies for too long and cause irreversible harm. He immediately took the hands of Yu Yanluo and Yan Xuehen, who were close by, and jumped into the spring water.

The icy spring water instantly sobered their still muddled minds.

Zu An waved to Yun Jianyue: "Sister Sect Mistress, come quickly!"

Mi Li's faint voice echoed in his mind: "I can't be bothered to watch you flirting around here. I'm going into seclusion. You'd best take this opportunity to conquer all three of them at once; don't disgrace your master."

She then turned and walked away, a door of nothingness opening for her. After she entered, it slammed shut.

Zu An was bewildered. Didn't she live in the Tai'e Sword? How could she open a door in his mind?

And what did her last words mean? Was she encouraging him or being sarcastic?

For some reason, seeing him wave, Yun Jianyue was reminded of women dressed in alluring clothes, waving silk scarves and calling out sweetly, "Come play, master!" as she passed by brothels. A shiver of disgust ran through her.

"You go in first. I'll come down after you're done," she said. She noticed the spring was indeed very small. The three of them were already packed in, and if she joined them, they would be squeezed so tightly they might not even be able to change positions.

Zu An hastily replied, "If the resentment stays in your body for too long, it might be hard to eradicate later. It's better to come down sooner."

Yun Jianyue was actually somewhat worried too, but the scene before her made her hesitate. How could the Ice Stone Woman and Yu Yanluo act like sisters, letting him embrace them on both sides?

Yan Xuehen, because they were all in the spring water, had her clothes soaked and clinging tightly to her body, making them almost transparent.

Furthermore, the spring was indeed small, and she was practically pressed against Zu An. She could even feel the warmth radiating from his body, just like that day in the hot springs of the Great Snow Mountain.

A warmth involuntarily surged through her body at the thought. Noticing Yun Jianyue's questioning gaze, she felt both shy and embarrassed.

To hide her discomfort, she quickly said to Yun Jianyue, "Are you intentionally staying up there, waiting for the resentment to erupt, so you'll have a legitimate reason for Ah Zu to kiss you?"

Zu An and Yu Yanluo were a couple, so being close like this was normal. But for her to be there alone next to them would be too awkward. If Yun Jianyue were also there, it would be much more normal.

Zu An: "..."

How did he get caught in the crossfire while just lying there?

Yu Yanluo's expression also grew strange. She wondered if she had overthought things earlier. Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen were sworn enemies. If Yan Xuehen truly had something going on with Ah Zu, why would she push her lover away?

Yun Jianyue bristled instantly: "Ice Stone Woman, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Fearing that Yu Yanluo or Zu An might genuinely misunderstand, she stopped resisting and jumped directly into the spring water.

As soon as she entered, she reached out to pinch Yan Xuehen. That Ice Stone Woman was truly detestable.

"Aiya~" Yan Xuehen naturally dodged while counterattacking. The two truly fought relentlessly in the small space of the water.

However, this made things difficult for Zu An. The spring was already crowded, and the two of them were twisting and turning, their warm, supple bodies constantly touching him. How could a hot-blooded young man like him endure it?

Yan Xuehen suddenly gasped, and her body shivered. Initially, she and Yun Jianyue were evenly matched, but losing the initiative like that, she immediately fell to a disadvantage.

"Sister Yan, what's wrong?" Yu Yanluo asked curiously, thinking she might have a problem after hearing her sudden gasp.

"Yes, Sister Yan, has your resentment backfired?" Zu An also asked with a grave expression.

Yan Xuehen was filled with shame and indignation. This guy was acting so innocent, but who was pressing so closely against her?

If it were before, she might not have understood, but after what happened in the Great Snow Mountain, how could she not be familiar with that which had almost penetrated her body?

Yet, she couldn't react. She could only go along with his words: "Indeed, the resentment in my body seems a bit strange."

This scoundrel! If he had the guts, he should press against that enchantress!

She really wanted to pull Yun Jianyue over to experience it, but fearing her own secret would be exposed, she ultimately didn't dare.

Zu An, seizing the opportunity, said to Yun Jianyue, "Sister Yun, please stop for a moment and let Sister Yan suppress the resentment in her body first."

"I knew you'd favor the Ice Stone Woman," Yun Jianyue said, reluctantly withdrawing her hand. "Ice Stone Woman, it seems your cultivation is still a bit inferior to mine if you get thrown off your balance just like that."

Although she was annoyed, she didn't take advantage of the situation. After all, they had been through so much together; their relationship was no longer one where they wished each other dead upon sight.

"Hmph!" Yan Xuehen found it hard to explain, so she just pretended to regulate her internal energy.

"Sister Yan, do you want me to help you?" Zu An leaned in gently.

"No need," Yan Xuehen replied, her ears burning. *The best help you could give would be to stop rubbing against me,* she thought, but how could she say such a thing aloud?

From close behind, Zu An watched as a rose-colored blush slowly spread across her fair neck. A hint of delight appeared in his eyes.

Although they had shared the most intimate relationship previously in the Great Snow Mountain, she had become even colder towards him afterward, always keeping her distance.

After that intimate contact, he felt she had become even more distant.

However, during their recent journey, they had barely survived the thick resentment and curses, struggling to reach the mountain peak. Along the way, they had to pass the Suihou Pearl among themselves to protect their lives. At first, she was very resistant, but gradually she got used to it.

He clearly felt their relationship had grown much closer. In the past, if he had acted like this towards her, she would have immediately turned hostile. Now, however, she silently acquiesced...

Suddenly, he gasped sharply, a literal description, not a figure of speech.

He felt as though he had turned into an ice sculpture.

"Ice Stone Woman, what mischief are you up to, releasing your Snowflake Divine Sword in the water?" Yun Jianyue shivered and began to scold Yan Xuehen.

"My apologies, I couldn't control myself for a moment just now, causing my vital energy to leak," Yan Xuehen said, subtly withdrawing her hand from the water.

At the same time, she felt some remorse. She had been truly angry at his rudeness, but now, having calmed down, she worried. Had she frozen him badly?

If she had frozen him into a eunuch, wouldn't she have ruined Chu Yan's happiness for life? And she would also be letting down Sister Yu.

Zu An was also scared half to death. He quickly circulated his qi several times and only breathed a sigh of relief when he found he was unharmed. Fortunately, his body, tempered by the Primordial Chaos Scripture, was exceptionally resilient, otherwise, he might have truly been frozen to pieces just now.

Was this woman serious? She actually used the Snowflake Divine Sword on him!

Enraged, Zu An slapped her hard underwater. Yan Xuehen was both mortified and furious, but since she was in the wrong first, she couldn't retaliate.

Yu Yanluo, on the other hand, stared at the rippling water with a strange expression: "What are you two doing?"

Yan Xuehen's heart pounded. *Oh no, oh no, she saw through it! I can't face anyone now,* she thought.

To her surprise, Zu An said, without changing his expression or missing a beat, "I thought I detected something approaching underwater just now, so I struck out to repel it."

"What?" Yun Jianyue and Yu Yanluo were both startled. This was an unknown land, and they had encountered so many resentment-bred monsters along the way, even earth-immortal level guardians. This spring was clearly extraordinary, and if there were any creatures in it, their horror would be unimaginable.

Yu Yanluo, terrified, immediately hugged Zu An tightly. Yun Jianyue, also scared, jumped directly onto the bank, but because her clothes were soaked and clinging to her body, almost transparent, she had to jump back into the water, glaring fiercely at Zu An: "What did you see?"

Zu An's expression was grave: "I didn't see anything. I was focusing on the creature underwater."
