The two entered the room, and Qin Shuang appeared somewhat restrained.
"What should I do?" she asked.
"Lie down on the bed," Xu Zimei gestured with his hands and said.
Seeing Qin Shuang obediently lie down on the bed, her long eyelashes flickered as she looked at him.
Xu Zimei first placed his hand on her forehead, beginning to probe and confirm the condition inside her body.
The damage the Nether Ice Physique had caused to the body obviously exceeded Xu Zimei’s estimation.
Although Qin Shuang looked well now, she was actually at the end of her strength.
Her internal organs had already been frozen quite a bit, and she was currently relying entirely on fire attribute medicine for support.
And with the Nether Ice Flame growing stronger, the effectiveness of these fire attribute medicines was becoming increasingly lower.
Eventually, one day, her entire body would be frozen, and she would die in this extreme cold.
"Can it still be treated?" Qin Shuang asked.
"You should sleep for a bit, when you wake up everything will be all right," Xu Zimei nodded and said.
He waved his right hand in front of her, and Qin Shuang gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Xu Zimei waved his right hand, and the Nirvana Beads were taken out from his True Fate World.
The Nirvana Beads seemed like a ball of blazing flames, burning slowly in mid-air.
Xu Zimei had Qin Shuang take the Nirvana Beads orally, and they went directly into her body.
The moment the Nirvana Beads entered, a significant change could be seen.
Qin Shuang’s entire body started to turn slightly red, and the moisture on the surface of her skin was rapidly evaporating.
The Nether Ice Physique seemed to perceive a threat and began to resist desperately.
Layer upon layer of dream-like, pale blue ice burst forth from inside her body, trying to freeze the entire Nirvana Beads.
"You’re not enough," Xu Zimei scoffed coldly.
Under his control, the Nirvana Beads became even more agitated, with flames of Nirvana burning wildly.
The Nether Ice Physique, as a unique constitution, though it greatly helped its possessor, it also harmed the host itself.
As the saying goes, injure oneself before harming others.
What Xu Zimei needed to do was to seal the Nether Ice Physique with the fire of Nirvana.
Locked up to the degree that Qin Shuang’s body could bear at the moment.
As her strength gradually increased, the seal would then be unlocked bit by bit.
After a standstill between the ice and the fire of Nirvana for over ten minutes, the ice was eventually forced to retreat.
Xu Zimei spread the Nirvana fire throughout Qin Shuang’s internal organs, liberating her from years of suffering from the cold poison.
At the moment the seal took effect, the Nirvana Beads transformed into a streak of light, flying back out of Qin Shuang’s mouth.
"It’s done, it’s over," Xu Zimei patted Qin Shuang’s shoulder.
She woke up from her slumber.
"It’s… it’s really cured?" Sensing the changes in her body, Qin Shuang said excitedly.
"How does it feel?" Xu Zimei asked with a smile.
"My whole body feels warm and cozy, I’ve never felt before," replied Qin Shuang.
"I’ve sealed the Nether Ice inside you. Practice well from now on, who knows, it might become the greatest aid in your cultivation journey," Xu Zimei said.
"This could also be a blessing in disguise."
"Thank you, Young Master Xu," Qin Shuang nodded, her gaze watery as she looked at Xu Zimei.
It seemed she had something she wanted to say, but after hesitating for a long time, she ultimately did not speak.
Xu Zimei opened the door, and Qin Feng hurried in, quickly inquiring about Qin Shuang’s condition.
Upon learning that she had been treated, Qin Feng hastily expressed his gratitude to Xu Zimei.
Xu Zimei waved his hand, saying, "Now that Shuang’er’s illness is cured, it’s time for me to leave."
"Young Master Xu is in such a hurry?" Qin Shuang’s face grew dim as she asked.
"Indeed, Young Master Xu saved my daughter, so regardless, you should stay for a meal," Qin Feng hurriedly said with a smile.
"No need, I still have a contest to attend in the Eastern Continent, and I’m not even sure if I’ll make it in time," Xu Zimei replied with a smile.
He had previously agreed to attend the Tian Wu Convention, but now, after being busy for a while, Xu Zimei already felt deeply that he was running out of time.
"If that is the case, I cannot insist on keeping you here," Qin Feng said with a sigh.
"I only hope Young Master Xu will visit our home more often in the future."
Xu Zimei nodded with a smile.
From the side, Qin Shuang stepped forward and slowly took out a sachet from her sleeve, handing it to Xu Zimei.
"I made this sachet for good luck. I hope Young Master Xu will keep it close by."
Xu Zimei didn’t think too much about it and hung the sachet around his waist after receiving it.
"Then I shall take my leave. We will meet again if destiny allows," Xu Zimei said with a nod.
With a wave of his hand, Chaos appeared majestically in the firmament.
Xu Zimei and the monk Da Zhi rose into the air, and with the roar of a beast, they mounted Chaos’s form which gradually disappeared into the distance.
"Truly a young and great emperor," Qin Feng exclaimed.
He turned to look at Qin Shuang, only to see his daughter’s spirits were low.
He asked, "Shuang’er, was the sachet really just a symbol of good luck?"
"Father, don’t overthink it," Qin Shuang replied.
"Some words, if not spoken, might never have a chance to be said in a lifetime," Qin Feng said, implying something more.
"I don’t understand what you mean, Father," Qin Shuang replied, looking down.
"Indeed, even if it were said, what could it change," Qin Feng said, shaking his head.
"The world that Young Master Xu belongs to is too vast, Qin City cannot hold him, and even the Yuan Central Continent is somewhat too small for him."
"Father, do you think I will have a chance to see Young Master Xu again?" Qin Shuang, staring into the distance, asked absentmindedly.
"Shuang’er, if you want to be with him, there is only one way," Qin Feng replied.
"What way?" Qin Shuang quickly asked.
"Become as powerful as he is," Qin Feng said.
"Only then can you look at the same sights of this world. Otherwise, you will always be people of two different worlds."
"That is also why I did not detain him."
Hearing Qin Feng’s words, Qin Shuang stood dazedly staring in the direction Xu Zimei had disappeared.
"You’re going to participate in the Tian Wu Convention?" Along the way, the monk Da Zhi asked curiously.
"What significance does that convention hold for you?"
"Actually, the rewards don’t matter much to me, what I mainly want is to see the talented disciples from the Eastern Continent," Xu Zimei said with a smile.
Destiny had already begun to take shape, and he had little interest in the convention’s rewards.
It had been so long since he had been back to the Eastern Continent, and he had no idea how many talented disciples had started to emerge.
It wasn’t just those from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect and other first-rate powers; even among the loose cultivators from common folk, there was an abundance of talent not to be underestimated.
After the Tian Wu Convention was over, Xu Zimei planned to deal with the True Divine Sword matter and take the chance to visit the Ancient Heavenly Court.
Moreover, now that he had obtained the Void Spirit Monkey, Xu Zimei was also prepared to visit the Sealing Ground in the Ancient Demon Cave to meet the various Demonic Skills practitioners there.
There were still many things he had to attend to, and by the time he was done, he estimated that Destiny would almost be fully formed.
Chaos flew at full speed through the void for more than ten days.
That day, a loud noise caught Xu Zimei’s attention.
