Chapter 332: Watching the Gate
Cheng Jiao did not hide his whereabouts.
Before they even got close to the Snow Castle, they were already locked onto by a dozen ice-armored soldiers wearing white armor and holding spears.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into Snow Castle!"
Cheng Jiao did not answer, but instead admired the snow scenery around the Snow Castle that never melted all year round.
According to Bai Luan, this place was formed naturally and snow would melt for several months every year.
But Bai Luan changed the surrounding terrain according to the fragments of the formation passed down from ancient times. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, she kept the Snow Castle covered in ice and snow all year round, making it easier for her to accumulate spiritual power.
The leading ice-armored soldier saw that Cheng Jiao ignored him and just looked around, so he directly labeled Cheng Jiao as a hostile force.
He immediately shouted: "If you don't speak, I will kill you on the spot."
Cheng Jiao withdrew his gaze and glanced at the ice-armored soldier who looked like the team leader.
He chuckled and said, "You can try it."
He wanted to see how strong he was now.
After saying this, an ice sword condensed in his hand.
Learned it from Bai Luan.
Cheng Jiao's ice-armored soldiers, who were originally preparing to form a battle array to encircle and kill the enemy, suddenly became confused.
"Ice internal energy? Who are you? Why can you condense an ice sword? Where did you get it from?"
A series of questions came out of the mouth of the captain of the ice armor soldiers.
The Bai family's icy inner strength can condense into the shapes of various weapons, and is very familiar to the ice-armored soldiers who guard the Snow Castle all year round.
They were also taught by Marquis Xue Yi some techniques for cultivating icy internal energy, which enabled them to form ice formations and condense ice spears for attacking.
Seeing this, Cheng Jiao said calmly, "I learned it secretly."
The captain seemed to remember something.
"Are you the man from the Raincoat Man? Everyone, line up! Kill this man!"
The Straw Raincoat Man has now been listed as a man to be killed by the Blood-Robed Marquis, and he has even been discovered sneaking into the Snow-Robed Castle.
The team leader seriously suspected that Cheng Jiao had learned the icy internal energy that the Straw Clothes Man might have stolen from the Snow Clothes Castle.
Cheng Jiao moved slightly.
This makes sense.
He decided to let the team leader lead the way. Today, he wanted to play the Snow Castle dungeon alone.
"Hush-hush-"
More than a dozen icy spears emitting a chilling cold aura were shot towards Cheng Jiao one after another in an orderly manner, blocking Cheng Jiao's way to dodge.
Although Cheng Jiao was disgusted with the Blood-Robed Marquis, he had to admit that this guy was quite good at training soldiers.
At least from his point of view, these dozen or so ice-armored soldiers who have practiced some ice internal energy are enough to surround and kill most second-rate masters.
However, for him, it would take ten times the number of people to arouse some interest.
A ray of white sword energy, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, shattered all the spears that were shot at it.
And its power did not diminish, it divided into dozens of small sword energies, slashing towards a dozen ice-armored soldiers.
What shocked the team leader was that he had clearly dodged the sword energy, so why was he hit again?
Cheng Jiao looked at the ice-armored soldiers on the ground and groaned in pain.
The ice sword in his hand dissipated.
The force he just used was probably equivalent to a full-strength attack from a top-notch master.
With his precise control, he was able to disable these dozen ice armored soldiers with just one sword.
At the moment Cheng Jiao made his move, Bai Luan, who was studying the remaining fragments of the secret method to deduced how to break the contract inside the Snow Castle, frowned slightly.
I don't understand why Cheng Jiao came to Xinzheng.
Could it be that Cheng Jiao discovered that she was trying to unlock the contract?
Or was it just a coincidence that Cheng Jiao came to Xinzheng to visit his old lover and passed by here?
As for Liusha, she had no intention of taking action, even though Bai Yifei had requested several times, she dismissed him. Although Cheng Jiao did not explicitly ask her to take care of Liusha, but only asked her to take care of Zi Nu and the others in secret, with her intelligence, how could she not know that once she took action against Liusha, she would definitely have a grudge with Zi Nu and other women of Cheng Jiao.
As for Ye Mu's current dilemma, she doesn't care at all.
She doesn't even care about South Korea, let alone Night, a puppet she supports?
If the Straw-Robed Man had not brought people from the Hidden Family to sneak into the Snowy Castle, she would not have planned to take any action and would have stayed here to study ways to break the contract.
And Bai Yifei, after noticing the commotion outside Snow Castle, felt inexplicably irritated.
Ever since he was backstabbed by the Straw-Robed Guest and almost allowed the Straw-Robed Guest to control the Night through the Yin Family, if his mother had not happened to return to Xinzheng, he would probably have been completely controlled by the Straw-Robed Guest, his former subordinate.
He felt a little regretful as to why he had kept this former stray dog by his side.
At the same time, he was also very angry about the betrayal of the Straw-Cloak Man. If it weren't for him, the Straw-Cloak Man would have been killed by the people sent by Han Wangan.
He didn't expect that this former royal prince would become his biggest worry now, and made him more angry than Cheng Jiao before.
Is he from the Yin family?
Marquis Xueyi stood at the gate of Snowy Castle and looked outside.
He has been assigned by his mother to be the gatekeeper for nearly half a month now. If he doesn't vent his emotions, he feels he will be depressed to death!
No matter what, he is the Blood-Robed Marquis who is feared by all of Korea, not an old man who guards the gate!
Cheng Jiao was waiting quietly outside the Snow Castle.
He knew that as long as he took action, Bai Luan's soul perception would definitely make it possible for him to not be discovered.
If Bai Luan doesn't come out, it means that Bai Luan is not in Xueyi Castle.
If Bai Luan was not in Snow Castle, he would not plan to force his way in.
God knows what kind of horrible things about Qin Shi Jiuge are inside.
He didn't think that his small body could withstand the bombardment of hundreds of barrels of kerosene.
At least we have to wait until he becomes a foundation-building cultivator before we can go in and have some fun without any worries.
Bai Yifei, dressed in red, walked out of the castle holding two newly-forged swords, followed by dozens of ice-armored soldiers.
He was confident that his men could surround and kill the top masters of the Yin family.
But when I looked around, I saw someone who looked very familiar.
"Cheng Jiao!?"
The Blood-Clothed Marquis's bloodshot eyes lit up slightly, and he felt a kind of excitement as if he had finally found something he had been looking for everywhere without any effort.
Cheng Jiao smiled faintly and said, "Marquis Xueyi, we haven't seen each other for a month. There's no need to be so enthusiastic."
The pale-faced Marquis of Blood-Robed pretended not to hear anything.
"Okay, okay, you actually came here."
Ever since the straw raincoat man identified Ye Mu, Ye Mu's intelligence network was paralyzed, and he didn't know that Cheng Jiao had already arrived in Xinzheng.
The ice sword in Cheng Jiao's hand condensed again, harder and sharper than before.
The Blood-Robed Marquis's eyes narrowed: "You also have icy internal energy?"
Cheng Jiao politely explained again: "I have only been learning secretly for a short time, please forgive me."
The Bloody Marquis snorted coldly, "It seems that you have great talent, but it doesn't matter. Since you have come to Snowy Castle today, don't even think about leaving!"
He didn't care why Cheng Jiao came to Snow Castle. He only knew that Cheng Jiao would regret coming to Snow Castle alone!
Cheng Jiao asked lightly, "Are you confident that you can keep me here?"
Marquis Xueyi just sneered, perhaps Cheng Jiao didn't know that his adoptive mother had returned to Xueyi Castle.
According to his guess, Cheng Jiao had used some unknown means to escape. His mother failed to track down Cheng Jiao and returned empty-handed.
Now that Cheng Jiao has come to her door on his own initiative, his mother will definitely not miss such a good opportunity.
The secret of the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon is enough for his mother to deal with Cheng Jiao personally!
