"Rest assured, he’s fine."
The woman in purple shook her head, "The Undying Blood Clan deployed three Blood Kings, but still returned in defeat. Lin Yi has returned to the Blood God Sect with the Blood Empress. His life is not in danger for now."
Upon hearing that Lin Yi was safe, Lin Ning’s face finally showed a relieved expression.
"However, this time Lin Yi not only completely defected from the Holy Mansion but also offended the Undying Blood Clan."
The woman in purple shifted her tone, "In the future, I’m afraid he will face relentless pursuit from both the Holy Mansion and the Undying Blood Clan. Life won’t be easy for him!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ning, who had just been relieved, became worried again.
Both the Holy Mansion and the Undying Blood Clan were forces that Lin Yi could not provoke.
Being targeted by both could possibly throw Lin Yi into a situation of utter hopelessness.
"Your worry is futile. Though you advance quickly in your cultivation, there’s still a long way to go before you can leave and help Lin Yi."
The woman in purple spoke indifferently, "Unless you reach the goal I have set for you, you cannot leave the mountains."
Lin Ning felt a sense of despair.
The goal set by the woman in purple was not easily achievable.
At least not within the next year and a half.
"Master, I wish to enter the Extreme Cold Ice Prison."
Suddenly, Lin Ning made a request that even the woman in purple found unbelievable.
The woman in purple frowned deeply, "The Extreme Cold Ice Prison is the most terrifying forbidden area in the Beihai Holy Land, incredibly perilous. With your current strength, entering would be far too risky."
"Wait until you’ve reached the Sealed Marquis Realm before considering this matter."
"Disciple has the Purple Cold Saint Body, most of the perils in the Extreme Cold Ice Prison, I can withstand. Master, please let me enter!"
Lin Ning pleaded earnestly.
She had never craved strength and power as much as she did today!
Even if it meant facing great danger, she was willing to risk it!
Moreover, within the Extreme Cold Ice Prison, great opportunities coexisted with great dangers!
After weighing the risks, the woman in purple finally consented to Lin Ning’s request and led her to the entrance of a frigid cavern.
She flipped her Jade Hand and casually handed Lin Ning a Dark Ancient Talisman.
"If you encounter peril, crush this talisman, and it will transport you out of the Extreme Cold Ice Prison."
"Remember, the moment you can’t hold on, crush the talisman immediately."
The woman in purple advised repeatedly.
Lin Ning nodded and then her eyes flashed resolutely. She leaped forward and dashed into the Extreme Cold Ice Prison, vanishing from sight.
Middle Ancient Family, Luo Family.
In the grand and towering ancient city, numerous vermilion palaces were distributed in an orderly fashion, resembling a magnificent imperial palace.
Lu Qingcheng, emerging as one of the young prodigies of the Luo Family, had her own independent cultivation mansion.
A young maid hurried to the front of Lu Qingcheng’s mansion and reported, "Miss, there’s news about Lin Yi. It came from the Eastern Domain."
Lu Qingcheng’s eyes immediately lit up with surprise, "Really? Didn’t you tell me last time that Lin Yi was wanted by the East Domain Five Great Forces and that his fate was uncertain?"
Lu Qingcheng’s last piece of news about Lin Yi was when he was being pursued by the Holy Mansion, under the wanted orders of the Five Great Forces, Lin Yi had been without any trace for over two months.
This led Lu Qingcheng to believe that Lin Yi’s chances of survival were grim, and she had even cried for him several times.
Even her recent cultivation had been massively affected.
She had attempted to leave the Luo Family several times to go to the Eastern Domain in search of Lin Yi, but each attempt had been blocked by the experts of the Luo Family.
Upon hearing news of Lin Yi again, Lu Qingcheng was naturally overjoyed.
The maid’s expression turned somewhat apprehensive, "Lin Yi is indeed still alive, but he has joined the Eastern Domain Demon Sect and has become the Saint Heir of the Blood God Sect."
She knew that Lin Yi was very important to Lu Qingcheng, even if the latter had not said much, she could guess that their relationship was extraordinary.
The Luo Family, as a prestigious Ancient Clan of Central Province, highly valued face and stance, how could they possibly allow one of their heavenly pride to entangle with a disciple of the Demon Sect?
Lu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, then her face showed disbelief, "That’s impossible."
"Lin Yi is such an upright person, how could he possibly join the Demon Sect? There must be some hidden reason behind this."
She refused to believe that with Lin Yi’s character, he would truly choose to fall into the Demon Path.
The maid continued, "But, after the battle at Heavenly Demon Ridge, Lin Yi and the Holy Mansion have completely broken ties."
"Also, it is said that for some reason, the Undying Blood Clan is also relentlessly pursuing Lin Yi."
