Li Yunjing haggles for a rare item, but his group is interrupted by market guards. A young master named Han Feng intervenes, disrespecting Li Yunjing and making unwanted advances towards Zhao Qi. Angered, Li Yunjing reveals his Golden Core power, scaring off Han Feng. Later that night, an assassin sent by Han Feng attempts to attack Zhao Qi but is swiftly killed by Li Yunjing. Li Yunjing discovers the assassin is affiliated with the Han family, confirming his suspicions.

“Take me to see your young master.”

Li Yunjing said coldly, “Otherwise, death.”

Half a quarter of an hour later, Han Feng was anxiously waiting in the courtyard when suddenly the door was kicked open.

When he saw the person coming in, his face immediately turned ashen: “You… how did you…”

“Young Master Han, you have some nerve.”

Li Yunjing pressed the sword tip against his throat, “Even daring to covet a Golden Core Master’s dao companion?”

“Spare me, senior!”

Han Feng’s legs went weak, and he knelt with a thud, sobbing and sniffling: “I failed to recognize Mount Tai…”

“Didn’t I already give you a chance?”

Li Yunjing used the sword tip to lift Han Feng’s chin, “But you didn’t take my warning to heart! How do you think I should deal with you now?”

“Please don’t kill me!”

Han Feng screamed in collapse, “I’m begging you! My father has many Spirit Stones, he can compensate! And my father is an esteemed elder of the ‘Profound Ice Hall’! If you kill me, you’ll offend the ‘Profound Ice Hall’!”

Li Yunjing’s lips curled into a cold smile, the sword tip lightly drawing a line across Han Feng’s neck, leaving a blood mark: “Oh? Using the ‘Profound Ice Hall’ to pressure me?”

“No, no, no…”

Han Feng trembled all over, his pants already wet: “Spare me, senior! I… I am willing to trade a secret for my life!”

“Let’s hear it.”

Li Yunjing sheathed his sword, looking down at him.

“My father has recently been secretly capturing cultivators with a special physique.”

Han Feng swallowed, lowered his voice and said, “It’s rumored to be for opening the ‘Profound Ice Secret Realm’…”

“Profound Ice Secret Realm?”

Li Yunjing raised an eyebrow.

“Yes!”

Seeing Li Yunjing seemed interested in this news, Han Feng felt a bit relieved, nodding repeatedly, “It’s said that the secret realm contains the inheritance of the ancient Profound Ice True Monarch, requiring a blood sacrifice of cultivators with a special physique to open…”

“Explain clearly!”

Li Yunjing’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, the sword edge once again pressed against Han Feng’s throat: “Where exactly is the secret realm? How many cultivators are needed for the blood sacrifice? When will it be opened?”

“It’s… it’s eight thousand miles north at the ‘Jade Water Cold Pool’!”

Han Feng trembled all over in fear: “It’s said you need ninety-nine special physique cultivators, but as for when they’ll have enough, I don’t know!”

“How many people has the ‘Profound Ice Hall’ captured?”

Li Yunjing pressed on.

“Al… already ninety-seven…”

Han Feng stammered, “Just two more to go.”

“Two more?”

Zhao Qi’s expression changed dramatically upon hearing this.

“Lead the way! I want to see this secret realm for myself!”

Li Yunjing thought for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Han.

“No… I can’t!”

Han Feng was horrified, “My father will kill me!”

“If you don’t lead the way, I’ll kill you now.”

Li Yunjing said coldly, “Choose one.”

“I’ll… I’ll lead the way…”

Han Feng looked ashen, forced to speak in a trembling voice.

The three immediately dragged Han Feng out of the courtyard.

To prevent being followed, Li Yunjing deliberately laid several confusing arrays along the way.

“Someone is following us!”

Halfway there, Su Muqing suddenly became alert: “I sense the aura of a Golden Core Realm cultivator!”

“The old ghost Han Song came quickly!”

Li Yunjing’s expression brightened with a smile, “Let’s go find an uninhabited place to wait for him!”

No sooner were the words out than the four of them vanished from sight.

Just as Han Feng was about to cry for help, Li Yunjing silenced him with a silence technique.

In no time, a golden light streaked across the sky, it was Elder Han Song leading three Golden Core cultivators in pursuit.

Flying a hundred miles out, finding a deserted hill, Li Yunjing grinned slightly, stopping his steps, revealing the four of them under the moonlight.

“Father, save me!”

Han Feng immediately shouted at seeing this.

Elder Han Song’s eyes were furious: “You little beast, let go of my son!”

Chilling air erupted from around him, thick frost forming on the ground instantly.

“Elder Han Song, won’t you ask why I captured your son first?”

Li Yunjing asked with a smile.

“Beast!”

Elder Han Song roared: “I don’t need to know the reason, I only know that by kidnapping my son, you’ve already chosen a path to death! Release him immediately, and I’ll give you a swift end! Otherwise, it will be a thousand cuts, death by a thousand slices!”

“Oh, you’re quite domineering!”

Li Yunjing remained unhurried, lightly pressing the sword tip against Han Feng’s back: “Seems Elder Han Song doesn’t understand the situation?”

“Hmph!”

Elder Han Song glared fiercely at Li Yunjing, along with the three fellow disciples, surrounding the three of Li Yunjing.

“You dare not threaten me with my son’s life!”

He finally said: “Doing so will only make your deaths more miserable!”

“Elder Han Song, how about we make a deal?”

Li Yunjing chuckled softly, realizing that this was a cold-hearted man, his son’s life meant nothing to him, he only cared about his own face!

Li Yunjing’s actions made him lose face, so he hurriedly came to kill him after receiving the long-distance communication!

Now, Li Yunjing wanted more useful information from this selfish elder.

“What deal?”

Elder Han Song suppressed his anger.

“Very simple.”

Li Yunjing smiled, “Use the secret of the ‘Profound Ice Secret Realm’ to exchange for your son’s life.”

“How do you know…”

Elder Han Song’s expression changed, glaring at his son, cursing: “You wretch, you dare leak a secret?”

“Well?”

Li Yunjing asked with a smile.

“Do you think capturing my son can threaten me?”

Han Song pondered for a moment, then suddenly sneered: “Wishful thinking!”

He suddenly waved his hand, “Take them down!”

“Yes, senior brother!”

The three Golden Core cultivators attacked simultaneously, ice cones and flying swords came whistling in.

Li Yunjing was prepared, he quickly lifted Han Feng to shield: “Elder Han Song, think carefully!”

“Despicable!”

Elder Han Song hastily withdrew his attack, trembling in anger.

He spoke harshly, but asking himself to kill his son with his own hands was something he couldn’t mentally overcome.
