# Chapter 2139: White Emperor's Orphaned Daughter
Lin Feng's eyes, hidden beneath his disheveled long hair, gradually brightened. The sense of clarity became increasingly evident. The scrolls recorded the deeds of many great figures—people who had experienced countless stories, endless hardships, and setbacks before achieving great enlightenment and reaching terrifying realms. His own life, though filled with countless setbacks, had been relatively smooth when carefully considered. From the beginning of his cultivation journey, only that one time at the Martial Emperor Realm had brought him a great defeat. But after overcoming that hurdle, everything had opened up again, leading to a new dawn.
This experience, Lin Feng vaguely felt, might be even more difficult than the last. However, he had no choice but to walk forward unwaveringly.
Ahead, many great demons gathered together, all gazing at the void before them. There, beside a frozen ancient lake, stood several peaks. Upon those peaks, several phantom figures stood proudly. These individuals were all extraordinary, their long robes billowing as they exuded powerful and terrifying auras.
"The descendants of the Eight City Beast King Lords—they are probably the ones with the greatest hope of entering the Ten Thousand Demon King's territory," the demons uttered low, guttural roars, one after another. The young figures standing in the void were all demon beasts, and some of them were descendants of the Imperial City Beast King Lords, possessing extraordinary talent and terrifying strength. As for the lake below, a chilling cold emanated from it. Beneath the lake's waters lay someone's bedchamber.
The beautiful women dressed in ice armor were that person's guard maidservants, but even so, they were all extremely powerful and formidable.
"We have traveled a great distance to pay our respects. Is this how Miss Bai treats her guests?" At this moment, a young man spoke calmly. His eyes were sharp, as if radiating brilliant light. His arms were crossed over his chest as he looked at the women.
"Miss says for all of you to get lost," the group of women replied without any courtesy.
"Heh, Miss Bai certainly puts on quite the airs. The current Miss Bai is no longer the Miss Bai of the past," another person said coldly. Instantly, an endless chill surged toward that speaker.
"How dare you!" A series of sharp cries rang out. Brilliant white swords pointed at the young man who had spoken, as if icy energy was being exhaled.
"So what if we dare? Miss Bai, you might as well come out," a young man suddenly said. A rolling wave of sound erupted from his mouth, transforming into terrifying soundwaves that crazily penetrated into the lake. In that instant, the lake water churned and roared violently, as if the frozen lake was boiling. The fluctuations beneath the water became even more terrifying. Many bedchambers deep below shook and were destroyed by the soundwaves.
At this moment, Lin Feng also arrived at this place. His gaze fell upon the lake's surface, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Those young men were extremely powerful, all at the Emperor Realm. Their ages were certainly not as simple as they appeared. However, for them to attract so much attention in this Imperial City, they must be extraordinary figures. In this Imperial City, battles were not uncommon.
"That lake water is nice. I should bathe and clean myself up," Lin Feng muttered to himself. Since he had already decided to let go, he should also tidy up his appearance.
Thinking this, Lin Feng's figure flickered as he stepped toward the lake ahead. Several gazes turned toward him, their expressions freezing slightly, revealing an interesting look.
"What is this guy doing?" The others also froze. Did Lin Feng dare to stand on the lake's surface? Didn't he know what that lake was?
Lin Feng truly did not know what that lake was. Such a vast frozen lake—Lin Feng only wanted to wash his body clean, to wash away the dirt and grime.
The group of sword-wielding women looked at Lin Feng. Then, with a splash, Lin Feng dove directly into the lake from its edge. This caused their expressions to stiffen. Then, their faces suddenly changed, becoming extremely ugly. The expressions of the others, however, were quite interesting.
A disheveled person had actually stepped into that frozen lake water. Those young men had come here and stood on the lake's surface, but they were still somewhat cautious, not daring to enter the water directly.
At this moment, Lin Feng entered the lake water. A terrifying chill invaded him, making him marvel at how cold the water was. Just then, his gaze looked down into the depths of the lake. His eyes froze slightly. There, there were actually several bedchambers. And atop one of those bedchambers, a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in white was looking up, her gaze fixed on him, her eyes filled with endless coldness.
"There is another world within the lake. Could this be the palace of some demon beast?" Lin Feng suddenly understood. He had seen several people standing on the lake's surface in a standoff earlier, so he hadn't thought much about it. But now, seeing the bedchambers and the woman inside, he immediately guessed this possibility.
Lin Feng's body rolled through the lake water toward the depths. After a moment, he arrived above the bedchamber at the bottom of the lake. Looking at the woman, whose expression remained icy, he said, "Is this your bedchamber?"
The icy woman did not acknowledge Lin Feng. She simply stared at him, her expression extremely cold, as if she could freeze Lin Feng's body solid.
Just then, another terrifying wave of sound rolled down from above, its violent and ferocious power destroying everything. The woman looked up, her expression cold. Her palm trembled forward, and instantly, the lake water froze, forming a layer of pure white frozen world. Cracking sounds rolled as the frozen power continuously shattered, eventually breaking apart completely. At the same time, the soundwaves also dissipated.
"Miss Bai, since you have already appeared, why not come out and meet us?" A voice drifted over. The woman's body transformed into a beam of icy light, rushing toward the void.
Lin Feng watched her leave and shook his head slightly. The light barrier around him suddenly disappeared. Instantly, the water washed over his body, cleansing his flesh. Traces of sword light appeared, scraping across his face. His hair and beard moved with the water, flowing to who knows where. Before long, the disheveled figure completely disappeared, replaced by a handsome young man with jet-black eyes like ink. His hair was straight from the water's impact. A light barrier once again enveloped his body. Lin Feng changed into a set of clothes, then his body rose toward the lake's surface.
Above the lake, after Miss Bai's figure appeared, more people gathered. However, the standoff atmosphere on the lake's surface became even more pronounced.
At the same time, Qiye Tianjun and his group also arrived here. Qing'er, standing beside Qiye Tianjun, felt herself paling in comparison when she saw Miss Bai. Whether in appearance, strength, or temperament, she felt inferior.
"Who is she?" Qing'er murmured, glancing at her senior brother beside her. His eyes were fixed straight ahead, ripples stirring in his heart.
"The White Emperor's daughter," the young man said, snapping back to reality upon hearing Qing'er's words. He spoke quietly. Qing'er's pupils contracted slightly. The White Emperor's daughter—it was her. No wonder she had such an aura.
In the past, the name of the White Emperor had shaken the entire region. Even the Eight Beast King Lords feared him. However, the White Emperor had no interest in the title of Beast King Lord. He sought only the path of sainthood. In the end, he did not pass the saint's path but instead walked toward a dead end, falling on the road to becoming a saint. He left behind his orphaned daughter, Bai Yu. Bai Yu had once been a proud daughter of heaven, surpassing all the young generation of the Demon Emperor City in both cultivation talent and strength. However, after the White Emperor's fall, many began to dare to provoke Bai Yu. Some Heavenly Demon Emperor figures even wanted to seize Bai Yu as a wife or concubine. For this reason, a terrifying battle had erupted on this lake's surface. In that battle, the White Emperor returned, killing countless powerful figures. From then on, no one dared to bully Bai Yu too much. Although they knew that the returning White Emperor was not the real White Emperor, they still feared him. No one knew what else the White Emperor had left for his orphaned daughter, Bai Yu.
"Does everyone have business with Bai Yu?" The White Emperor's daughter looked coldly at the crowd. As her words fell, it seemed as if eight thousand chills spread out, enveloping the space.
"Miss Bai, before the White Emperor fell, he once went to the Ten Thousand Demon King's territory. After returning, he attempted to break through to the Saint Realm, becoming a generation's ultimate emperor. However, Miss Bai must know about the White Emperor's experiences in the Ten Thousand Demon Saint Domain before his fall. Could you tell us?" At this moment, a young man spoke coldly, causing the crowd to tremble. Many knew about this as well. Many speculated that the White Emperor's fall was related to his entry into the Ten Thousand Demon King's Saint Domain. This was also one of the reasons many targeted Bai Yu.
"No comment," Bai Yu said coldly. "If you want to fight, feel free."
As her words fell, the chill intensified. She stood atop the lake peak, her pure white snow-like long dress fluttering, breathtakingly beautiful.
The void was filled with oppressive silence. However, at this moment, a splashing sound was heard. A figure in a white robe burst out of the lake water, causing the oppressive atmosphere to pause slightly. Many gazes turned toward the figure emerging from the water. It was a young man with a handsome face, extraordinary bearing, and brilliant eyes as vast as the stars. However, his aura was calm, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
"A man?" Many people froze, revealing stunned expressions. Besides the White Emperor, were there other men in the imperial palace beneath the lake?
"Haha, it seems Miss Bai already has a man. No wonder she rejects our affections," a voice rolled out. Bai Yu's expression turned unpleasant as she stared at Lin Feng and asked, "Who are you?"
Lin Feng looked at Bai Yu, his lips moving as he calmly said, "I did not know this lake had an owner. I borrowed its waters to bathe. I hope you will not take offense, miss."
"It was you—the madman in the lake earlier," Bai Yu's expression flickered. It was that disheveled person. The eyes of others also showed a hint of surprise. It was him—that disheveled madman—actually a handsome young man.
PS: Seeing the comments fills me with mixed emotions. There are so many bored people. I already explained the update issues on the 1st, and I say it every day on WeChat. Everyone can wait without worry. After seeing the WeChat message every night, you can check for updates. Since WeChat only allows one message per day, I will send it after confirming that the day's updates are complete. Does your life really not go on without seeing this update? If my novel is truly that important to you, why do you seem to hate me so much? As for those who say there's no WeChat explanation, that's even more ridiculous. You can't be bothered to download an app that takes at most a few minutes, yet you have so much time to criticize my attitude. Should I add your phone number and send you a text message every day to notify you of updates for my attitude to be considered good?
