# Chapter 1408: Meeting Mu Feixue Again
Within his line of sight was a pale, endless world—a sky of snow, glaciers standing tall, icy mist pervading the air, scattered snowflakes drifting through the sky. Every corner of the earth was covered in what seemed like eternal cold snow and ice.
The spiritual energy belonging to the God Realm, and more specifically to the Yin Xue Realm, surged toward him, causing all of Yun Che's pores to open wide. The Desolate God's Power within him began to circulate rapidly in excitement, and all his spiritual senses seemed to emerge from a muddy swamp, reborn and becoming exceptionally clear... Indeed, compared to the God Realm, the aura of the Lower Realm being described as turbid like a swamp was not an exaggeration at all.
"Yin Xue Realm..." Yun Che gazed at the endless white, breathing in the cold air here, his emotions surging violently. It had been over four years, and he had finally returned to the Yin Xue Realm—his starting point in the God Realm, the place that changed his destiny and also tightly tied to his fate.
There was not much time for sentiment. Now that he had returned to the Yin Xue Realm, what he needed to do was to rush back to the sect as quickly as possible, then go to the Minghan Heavenly Lake to meet the Ice Phoenix Divine Spirit.
Although the dimensional stone Mu Bingyun gave him could teleport directionally to the Yin Xue Realm, the teleportation position could not be too precise. When he first arrived with Mu Bingyun, they also had to fly a long distance before returning to the Bing Huang God Sect.
This time was naturally no exception.
However, for the current Yun Che, this was not too big of a problem. He immediately released his divine sense to the fullest, sweeping in all directions... As long as he could slightly sense the direction of the Bing Huang Realm's aura, he could fly straight there.
But... five breaths... ten breaths... twenty breaths...
Yun Che opened his eyes, looking rather frustrated.
He could not find the aura of the Bing Huang Realm at all.
That meant the position he was teleported to should be quite a remote area of the Yin Xue Realm, very far from the Bing Huang Realm where the Bing Huang God Sect was located... so far that even with his Divine King realm spiritual sense, he could not detect it at all.
And his Bing Huang Engraved Jade had long been destroyed back in the Star God Realm, so he could not send a sound transmission to anyone in the sect.
During the few years in the Yin Xue Realm, apart from a "diplomatic mission" to the Bing Feng Empire, Yun Che had basically never left the sect. Thus, he knew nothing about the territory of the Yin Xue Realm. Trying to go back based on memory was simply impossible!
"It seems I'll have to ask someone for directions."
As the realm king sect of the Yin Xue Realm, probably just asking any newborn baby could tell you the location of the Bing Huang God Sect.
There was no aura of living creatures around. Yun Che was not surprised by this. Due to the climate of the Yin Xue Realm, both humans and profound beasts were distributed extremely sparsely. He randomly chose a direction and flew straight ahead, but then suddenly stopped, his eyes narrowing slowly.
Because he saw, in the eastern sky, that blood-red star.
Sure enough, it could be seen clearly here as well.
That meant the Eastern Divine Region was certainly also suffering from similar effects.
However, the Eastern Divine Region was much farther from the Eastern Extreme of Chaos, and its power level was much higher, so the degree of influence should be far weaker than that of the Lan Ji Star. Otherwise, it would definitely be a catastrophic disaster that no one could stop.
Withdrawing his gaze, Yun Che muttered to himself, "I wonder if the sect has undergone any major changes. They must all think I'm dead. When Master sees me, she'll definitely be shocked out of her wits."
As he muttered, his hand rapidly rubbed across his face. When his palm left, his appearance had changed quite drastically. A completely different face, but still with extraordinary bearing, while his eyes conveyed a somewhat natural arrogance.
Although a profound force disguise is simple, those with high profound power can see through it at a glance. But Yun Che was highly skilled in medicinal disguise, and unless the observer was an expert in that field, it would be difficult to see through the flaw.
His aura was not concealed either. Instead, he deliberately released the lightning aura of the Yun Clan's Purple Cloud Art, which was absolutely unknown in the God Realm. The fire and ice powers he was best at were suppressed... With the Evil God Divine Power that could perfectly control elemental forces, this was a piece of cake.
Thus, unless someone had far superior cultivation and was extremely familiar with him, it would be nearly impossible to recognize him.
Add to that the premise and implication that "he was already dead," even an acquaintance would have an extremely slim chance of identifying him.
His figure began to weave through the vast white world, his speed gradually increasing.
Back in the God Realm, the thoughts that had been suppressed during the three years on the Lan Ji Star naturally began to stir. One figure after another surfaced in his mind.
Shen Xi... Huo Poyun... Huo Rulie... Yue Shen Di... Long Huang... friends and rivals from the Xuan Shen Assembly...
Xia Qingyue, who carried a special power like him, whose fate was as tumultuous as his, and who was also born on the Lan Ji Star...
The Star God Emperor and Qianye Ying'er, whom he hated to the extreme...
Mo Li and Cai Zhi, whom he had lost forever...
In this world, he owed many debts of gratitude and left countless hatreds and regrets...
But, with his current power, he still could not repay those debts of gratitude or reclaim those hatreds.
Flying for who knows how long, amidst the chaotic interweaving of countless thoughts and images in his mind, his spiritual sense finally detected the aura of humans.
But immediately, his brows also furrowed sharply.
Because it was not just human aura; there was clearly a large amount of profound beast aura!
And the auras of both humans and profound beasts were extremely chaotic... clearly in the midst of a fierce battle.
A profound beast riot!?
These four words flashed through Yun Che's mind in an instant, and his speed suddenly increased as he charged straight ahead.
Soon, within his line of sight, an ice city spanning several hundred miles appeared. South of the city, several layers of barriers were shining with light. And in front of the barriers was a vast, almost endless horde of profound beasts.
A dense black mass of profound beasts rolled like black clouds, charging toward the ice city. They were all attacking the barriers and the profound practitioners blocking them like madmen. The flying snow and shattered ice stirred up by their power danced wildly in the air like a blizzard. The roars of the beasts and the roar of power shook heaven and earth.
Before this terrifyingly monstrous tide, the profound practitioners fighting desperately seemed exceptionally small. They annihilated layer after layer of beasts, but the beasts behind still seemed endless, causing them to exhaust their strength, suffer severe injuries, and lose their lives one by one...
The outermost barrier began to shake violently under the attack of the beast horde. A layer of increasingly heavy and dark despair enveloped this ice city that had known eternal peace amidst the snow and ice.
A profound beast riot... Although, based on the "experience" from the Lan Ji Star, this seemed to be only the initial stage of the Crimson influence, the profound beast riot in the God Realm and that in the Lower Realm were undoubtedly two completely different concepts!
Yun Che slowed down, gradually approaching, watching from afar... The scene before him showed the current state of the Eastern Divine Region.
"Damn it! A breach has appeared on the southeast side! Hurry and reinforce!"
"No! There's no strength left... Aaargh!"
"Why haven't reinforcements arrived yet?!"
"We've already sent sound transmissions to all the neighboring cities and sects we can ask for help... but there are out-of-control beast tides everywhere! They can't even take care of themselves, how can they have spare strength to care about here!"
"Seventh Senior Brother... No... Seventh Senior Brother! Don't die! Seventh Senior Brother... Ahhh!!!"
Boom!!
With the shattering of countless profound lights, another defensive barrier collapsed, bringing waves of nearly desperate screams.
Only the last two layers of barriers remained.
"Sect Master, there's no hope! The Bing Lan Sect has also been completely wiped out. Let's flee... As long as the mountain remains, we won't have to worry about..."
"Shut up! Our sect's roots are here. Even if I die, I will die in Huan Yan City! Any coward afraid of death can tuck their tail and run! But from now on, never claim to be a disciple of my Nine Star Sect!"
This fierce battle between humans and rampaging profound beasts was extremely brutal every single moment. The snowfield that had been pale for countless years was now completely soaked in scarlet blood. The cold wind rolled with a pungent, nauseating smell of blood.
Even though they were fighting with their lives, all they got in return was death and the ever-approaching hopelessness. The last barrier trembled precariously.
When all the barriers shattered, this massive beast tide would surge into the ice city... One could imagine the scene that would unfold.
Yun Che extended his palm, and Light Profound Force gathered in his hand... But immediately, he put it away completely.
No... This is not the Lan Ji Star; this is the God Realm.
Sigh... Forget it, I just promised not to meddle in other people's affairs or cause unnecessary trouble.
Yun Che shook his head, fully abandoning the idea of intervening. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly moved his gaze and looked northward.
That was...
The aura of a sect!
There were over a thousand people in total, all at the Divine Dao level. Most were at the Divine Origin Realm and Divine Soul Realm, a few at the Divine Tribulation Realm. And the leader... was at the Divine Spirit Realm! It seemed like there was also Ice Phoenix bloodline, and the feeling was... somewhat familiar?
Yun Che did not leave. He concealed his aura and stared northward... Soon, the figures he sensed appeared in his sight.
Regardless of gender, they all wore pure white robes, the Bing Huang Snow Robes that Yun Che was very familiar with. Different Bing Huang Snow Robes represented different identities. Some came from the Cold Snow Hall, some from the Ice Phoenix Palace, and those dozens at the Divine Tribulation Realm were clearly from the Divine Hall!
Yun Che's gaze locked firmly on the leading figure, and his vision briefly blurred.
She had a stunningly beautiful face carved from ice and snow, so beautiful that it took one's breath away, yet so cold that it chilled the soul. Especially her eyes—there was no emotion in them, only enough ice to freeze everything... Just like Chu Yuechan when he first met her.
Her appearance, her presence, was like a pure world-ice lotus blooming proudly and solitarily in this snow-covered world.
"Mu... Fei... Xue..." Yun Che whispered involuntarily.
A few years had passed, and she had become even more beautiful, even colder. It seemed that as her cultivation improved, her emotions were more thoroughly sealed away. Her cultivation had also broken through the Divine Tribulation Realm of that year, reaching the Divine Spirit Realm.
And the Bing Huang Snow Robe she wore... the Ice Phoenix pattern embroidered on it was one he knew very well.
Because that was the symbol of the Bing Huang God Sect's Sect Master's Personal Disciple!
And the Ice Phoenix bloodline aura on Mu Feixue, far stronger than before, also proved something.
The arrival of the Bing Huang disciples was like a streak of ice-blue radiance sweeping across the horizon, causing the color of the entire sky and earth to change noticeably. Everyone's gaze instinctively turned, and then erupted in cries of joy to the extreme.
"It's the Bing Huang God Sect! It's the Bing Huang God Sect!!"
"Open the barriers!!"
Amidst excited shouts that seemed to tear their throats, the last two layers of protective barriers opened a gap. Mu Feixue, the fastest, charged at the front. The ice sword in her hand swept up, and an ice lotus bloomed among the beast horde, instantly freezing the hundreds of beasts at the forefront.
The Bing Huang disciples behind followed closely. Under the Ice Phoenix God-Sealing Canon, tens of miles of the region were instantly sealed in ice and snow, and the surging beast tide was abruptly cut off.
Although it lasted only a few breaths, it was as smooth as flowing water. Clearly, this was far from their first time dealing with such a situation.
The Huan Yan City profound practitioners, who had been fighting desperately, finally got a chance to catch their breath. More than half of them fell to their knees, some directly breaking into loud sobs as their mental tension relaxed. With the arrival of the Bing Huang God Sect's rescue, they knew they were saved, and Huan Yan City was saved as well.
"Fee... Feixue Fairy?" At this moment, the city lord of Huan Yan, who had always been at the forefront, let out an extremely excited cry, mixed with deep disbelief.
This exclamation, every word like a thunderbolt from beyond the heavens, shocked everyone into a violent shudder.
"City Lord, is what you said... true?"
"Feixue Fairy is the personal disciple of the Great Realm King! How could she possibly grace this barren and remote place with her presence?"
"Not wrong... Not wrong!" the city lord of Huan Yan said excitedly. "Last year, when I visited the Divine Sect to pay respects, I was fortunate enough to see her from afar... Such immortal grace, such strength—it cannot be wrong! It really is Feixue Fairy!"
The excitement and uplifting emotions spread like a tide among the city-defending profound practitioners, and quickly extended throughout the entire Huan Yan City.
The personal disciple of the Great Realm King had personally arrived—it was like a dream. Amidst their extreme excitement, even the beast tide that had pushed them to the brink of death seemed no longer so terrifying.
Mu Feixue turned a deaf ear to everything. She charged straight toward the dense herd of profound beasts in the distance. The image of an Ice Phoenix emerged above her body. Where her ice sword pointed, an arc of light like an ice-blue polar glow cut the endless beast horde cleanly in two...
"As expected." Yun Che murmured softly, his heart a mixture of emotions.
Indeed, after his own "death," the most qualified person in the Bing Huang God Sect to become Mu Xuanyin's personal disciple was none other than Mu Feixue.
It's just... Yun Che felt a little bitter about it.
A feeling of something that was originally only his being taken away.
