C367 The Curtains Were Drawn

Just as Ye Heng stepped into the Winter Palace, he saw a figure that he had never thought of.

"Is that you? Xiaoxue?"

Ye Heng's face was filled with surprise and excitement. His eyes were fixed on the beautiful figure in front of him.

"Little. . . Heng?"

Although it had been more than three years, both of them had left an indelible impression in each other's hearts. That was why they recognized each other at first glance.

"I. . . "

Before this, Ye Heng had thousands of words he wanted to say, but when they really met, he couldn't say anything.

The girl who was also standing in front of Ye Heng didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere instantly turned cold. The empty ice and snow palace seemed exceptionally quiet at this moment.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard.

Immediately following that, a charming and beautiful woman dressed in white clothes, who could be called a stunning beauty, appeared in their line of sight just like that.

"Is she here?" The woman in white coldly glanced at Ye Heng and said in a low voice.

That calm and emotionless gaze made Ye Heng feel as if he had been seen through.

Fortunately, the beautiful woman withdrew her gaze at this moment. Otherwise, Ye Heng wouldn't have been able to restrain himself from making a move.

"Inheritor, this is something that belongs to you. "

The woman was holding a transparent sphere that was emitting a faint light. In the center of the sphere, a snowflake like pattern was swimming.

At this moment, Ye Heng could not move his eyes away. There was a voice in the depths of his heart that seemed to be urging him, causing him to involuntarily extend his hand forward.

Seeing Ye Heng's reaction, a glimmer of light flashed through the eyes of the beautiful woman. Then, she gently pushed forward, and the transparent sphere slowly floated towards Ye Heng.

In the next moment, the transparent sphere passed through Ye Heng's palm and went straight into his chest. A bone-piercing coldness spread out in an instant.

Then, streams of solid ice condensed on the surface of Ye Heng's body. In the blink of an eye, he had turned into an ice sculpture.

However, Ye Heng's life force did not dissipate. Instead, it became more vigorous.

Upon seeing this scene, a trace of astonishment flashed across Ye Xue's eyes.

During the three years that she didn't know, the boy who had lost everything had grown to such an extent. Apart from astonishment, there was also delight in her eyes.

However, soon after, a deep sorrow appeared in Ye Xue's eyes.

Although Ye Heng was no longer the Ye Heng from three years ago, she was no longer that innocent little girl. Too many things had happened in these three years.

Although Ye Heng's current strength wasn't weak, it was still far from being comparable to her. Furthermore, the difference in status was too great.

Even though Ye Heng had become the inheritor of a Great Sovereign, he had only closed the gap by a tiny bit.

According to Ye Xue's understanding, the Ice Moon Divine Sect had more than one inheritor of a Great Sovereign. The gap between them could be imagined.

"Little Heng, you and I are no longer people of the same world. Let the memories of the past become an eternal memory. "

Ye Xue's voice was very low. Finally, she looked at Ye Heng and turned to leave.

"Not waiting for him to wake up?"

At this time, the voice of the beautiful woman in palace attire came from behind.

"No. . . I'm afraid I won't be able to leave at that time. "

Ye Xue's voice echoed above the spacious ice palace, and she had completely disappeared.

She had no choice but to do this. As the candidate for the next sect master of Ice Moon Divine Sect, she couldn't have any romantic relationships.

Once the Ice Moon Divine Sect found out about her relationship, not only would she be punished for 100 years of cleansing her body in the cold pond, but the man she liked would also be mercilessly killed by the Ice Moon Divine Sect.

Ye Xue wasn't afraid of the punishment of cleansing their body in the cold pond, but she was afraid that Ye Heng would be killed by the Ice Moon Divine Sect because of this.

It was precisely because of this that Ye Xue suppressed the restless feelings in her heart and left without hesitation.

Two hours later, Ye Heng, who was sealed in ice in the ice palace, suddenly opened his eyes. Then, he raised his hand and smashed open the ice on his body.

However, at this moment, there was no one in the hall. Ye Xue and the girl in the Vessel Palace uniform had all left.

Furthermore, Ye Heng noticed that the three white lion cubs that he had kept in the Qiongqi Seal had disappeared. They should have been taken away by the woman in the palace uniform.

She was actually able to open the Qiongqi Seal without anyone noticing, and take away the white lion cubs.

In an instant, Ye Heng couldn't help but shiver. Fortunately, she didn't harbor any ill intentions towards him. Otherwise, he would have already stepped onto the Yellow Spring Road by now.

"Hmm. . . I think I should leave now. . . "

At this moment, Ye Heng's face revealed a deep sense of loss. He couldn't even be bothered to study the 'Cold Turtle Seal' that he had just obtained.

Although Ye Heng was in a frozen state earlier, he could still hear the words of the outside world.

Therefore, Ye Xue's words were transmitted into Ye Heng's ears without missing a single word.

"Don't worry, Xiaoxue. As long as you don't want to, no one can force you. I will personally go to the Ice Moon Divine Sect and take you away!"

Ye Heng's voice was filled with determination. His nails dug deep into his flesh, and he didn't feel any pain at all.

After more than ten breaths of time, Ye Heng finally calmed down.

"Inheritor. . . "

Ye Heng muttered the word softly. This was the second time he had heard it.

The first time was from the mouth of the Fiery Eye Raging Ape that could speak, and the second time was from the woman in the stunning palace dress.

It was likely that the reason why the woman in the stunning palace dress and the Fiery Eye Raging Ape had helped him was because of this inheritor.

And this inheritor was definitely related to the Qiongqi Seal, the Phoenix Seal, and the Frost Tortoise Seal that he had just obtained.

Perhaps, Ye Heng would have a chance to know the answer to these three markings and the secrets of the inheritor once he entered White Lufeng Peak.

After tidying up his mood, Ye Heng immediately regrouped with Qiao Qingen and the others.

At this point, the expedition in the Coldwinter Snow Mountain Range had finally come to an end.

Following the head examiner, Elder Chiang, the group spent more than a month to return to the Hao Yuan Sect.

This time, there were many disciples from the Hao Yuan Sect who came to participate in the inner circle disciple test, but there were only about twenty of them when they returned.

None of Wang Yuntian's eight junior brothers survived.

As for the Beast Peak where Ye Heng was located, because Qiao Qingen was injured, he didn't participate in the competition for the ultimate weapons. The number of people who survived was the most unexpected.

Ye Heng's harvest this time was not small. He had obtained the third mysterious mark, the Cold Turtle Seal.

Furthermore, before he left the Winter Snow Mountain Range, Ye Heng found out some of the secrets of these three marks.

The person who told him the secrets of these markings was Ning Xun, who had helped him previously.
