Chapter 193: Venting Feelings

mes to mastery of the arts, our demon race is unrivaled. How about..."Jiang Yun slept for a whole day and night. When he finally opened his eyes, he was still not fully awake when he realized that the...Ginger Cloud suddenly turned his head to look at Xueqing, gazing into her blue eyes. A look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

It's no wonder that Xueqing's eyes are different from the other snow tribe members. It turns out her father isn't from the snow tribe, but from the sea tribe.

My aunt and my mother, they were sisters, but both fell in love with my father. In the end, my father chose my mother.

"That's when my aunt started to hate my mother, especially after I was born. She often took her anger out on me."

"Thanks to grandpa always protecting me, I probably wouldn't be alive today…"

"So, she was rude to you, not because of you, but because of me. I hope you don't take it to heart."

"Okay, look at the sea, I'm leaving! Thank you!"

After saying all those nonsensical things, Xueqing turned and left, leaving a bewildered Ginger Cloud standing there dumbfounded.

In his opinion, Xue Qing's words to him seemed to be speaking for her aunt, but he always felt that there was something else hidden in her words, something he just couldn't figure out.

“Don’t overthink it,” Bai Ze's languid voice sounded, “She just wants to vent her feelings to you.”

Jiang Yun still looked puzzled and said, "Pour out your heart Why me"

"You idiot! You're not a member of the Snow Clan!"

Baize paused for a moment and said, "But you're not a demon either, so you wouldn't understand. It's like how humans value finding partners within their social circles. The demon clan places great importance on the purity of their bloodlines and generally won't interbreed with outsiders, especially not with humans!"

“And once a yokai is found to have coupled with an outsider, it will inevitably be shunned by its entire clan, not to mention the offspring of that yokai.”

Their bloodlines are impure, and they will be ostracized and shunned throughout the entire clan.

Only then did Jiang Yun understand!

It seems Xueqing gets along well with the people of the Snow Clan, but it's not because everyone likes her. It's because her grandfather, the Elder of the Snow Clan, has always been protecting her.

Just like her aunt Xue Lan, she harbored animosity toward Xue Qing but dared not openly defy her grandfather's orders.

Actually, because Xue Qing's background is so special, it is likely that she has no friends in the entire Snow Tribe, and instead is treated with coldness everywhere.

No wonder she was willing to stay here all alone, guarding her tribe!

But what about her parents She didn't mention them, I'm afraid something might have happened to them, or...

Gingercloud's gaze turned to the sea surface. After a deep sigh, he slowly sat down cross-legged and gazed intently at the vast ocean before him. He imagined Xueqing, just like himself now, gazing at the sea and missing her parents.

Of course, he also thought of his own origins.

Compared to Xueqing, I am actually more pitiful. At least Xueqing knows who her parents are, but I have no memory of them at all.

If there wasn't grandpa, I would have already died long ago.

Xueqing didn't actually return to the valley of her tribe, but stood at its entrance, gazing in the same direction as the ocean, watching Jiangyun's figure sitting there.

In her hand, she tightly held the jade bottle containing a single Heavenly Essence Pill, slowly bringing it close to her chest and murmuring, “This is the first time anyone has ever given me something in my life. Thank you, I will treasure it.”

After pondering for a long time, Jiang Yun finally let out a sigh of relief, casting aside all his thoughts. He closed his eyes, and in his mind, the bubble that the Snow Clan Elder had given him slowly appeared.

With a "poof," the bubble exploded softly, and gradually, in front of Ginger Cloud's eyes, appeared an empty world.

Although Jiang Yun knew this was Xuezu's grandfather's enlightenment when he gathered blessings, he didn't know what the enlightenment would be. He could only patiently wait.

Just a moment later, countless flakes of white snow suddenly appeared in this empty world.

These snowflakes were not only numerous but also fell at a rapid pace. However, instead of landing below, they congregated in mid-air, forming a pillar of snow.

Gradually, more and more snowflakes appeared, causing the snow column condensing in the air to grow taller, thicker, and wider.

Until this empty world is completely filled by this lone snow pillar.

"Is this the blessed land of the Xue clan's elder But what kind of blessed land is this, just a snow pillar"

Just as Jiang Yun had this thought, a flicker of red flame suddenly leaped out from beneath the snow pillar.

The flames grew increasingly intense, shooting upwards at an incredible speed. In a split second, they completely engulfed the snow pillar.

Under the scorching heat of the flames, the snow pillar gradually began to melt.

"No, it's not melting! The flames' purpose is to change the shape of this snow pillar, just like when refining pills, you need to mold them into shape."

The scene before him sparked an idea in Jiang Yun's mind: "The empty world I saw earlier was actually the Xuezu elder's dantian, and this snow pillar must be like the spiritual lake of a human cultivator within his body."

"This flame is naturally equivalent to a spirit fire."

Under the scorching of spiritual fire, spiritual energy would be completely liquefied. However, snow is already water, and it's extremely soft, so this pillar of snow doesn't need to turn into water. It can directly condense into the desired shape of a blessed land under these conditions.

As Jiang Yun had guessed, under the constant burning of the flames, the ice pillar gradually transformed into a white building resembling a palace.

Although this building doesn't truly exist in Jiang Yun's mind, it's just a painting, looking at it, Jiang Yun inexplicably felt a sense of vicissitudes and solemnity.

Even a faint thought drifted across its mind.

"This palace, it is very likely, is the sacred ground of the Snow Clan!"

"And if I'm not mistaken, it's hidden beneath the valley where the Snow Tribe resides!"

"Wow!"

A violent tremor shook the palace as it finally completed its formation, reaching a towering nine stories high, all constructed entirely from gleaming white snow.

But strangely enough, the flames did not disappear. They still circled around the palace, but they no longer seemed to give off intense heat, for the palace was no longer melting.

From afar, a white palace enveloped in crimson flames appeared before Jiang Yun's eyes.

Fire and snow, two things since opposite, like natural enemies, now coexist peacefully.

"This, is the blessed land of the Xue Clan patriarch!"

"And this fire, it wasn't the spiritual fire I imagined. It should have been the flame brought by the holy land of the Snow Tribe. That's why the ground around the old man's dwelling in the Snow Tribe radiates heat."

"The Snow Clan's Patriarch relied on this flame to condense his blessed land."

Gazing deeply at the palace standing amidst the burning flames, a look of comprehension gradually dawned on Jiang Yun's face.
