77: Chapter 77: Iceberg Snow Melts into Spring Mud, Palace Mistress Falls in Love with Sword Immortal

"If the heart is as clear as ice, even the falling sky will not cause alarm!"

"If the heart is as clear as ice..."

Qiu Dieyi's lips trembled slightly, desperately trying to refute it.

She closed her eyes, wanting to silently recite the Liqing Palace's Heart-Clearing Ice Heart Technique.

But.

It was useless.

No matter how she recited it, what emerged in her mind was no longer the empty and clear Heavenly Dao.

Instead, it was Ye Xiu's face with its wicked smirk.

It was Ye Xiu's large hand gripping her wrist, continuously transmitting a scalding heat.

Even more so, it was her own body, which had been frozen for a century, but was now being provoked by the Pure Yang Qi.

A body producing an extremely strange and extremely shameful desire!

Her breathing began to grow rapid.

Her chest heaved violently; her drenched white clothes outlined a breathtaking curve, and she was even trembling slightly.

Her legs, unexpectedly, began to go weak.

If Ye Xiu's arm hadn't been half-wrapped around her waist, this powerhouse of the Divine Bridge Realm would likely have collapsed onto the ground by now.

Ruthlessly breaking the Heart Demon, the Iceberg Palace Master falls into the Mortal World!

Ye Xiu's dominance and Pure Yang Qi were the greatest nemesis for Qiu Dieyi's Mysterious Yin Body and her Heartless Dao Heart!

"Admit it, Dieyi."

Ye Xiu's form of address for her had even changed, from Palace Master to the incredibly intimate 'Dieyi'.

His hand that had been gripping Qiu Dieyi's wrist had released her at some point.

Instead, it slid slowly up her snow-white arm in an extremely frivolous yet undeniable manner.

Finally, it came to rest on her smooth chin.

Ye Xiu gently pinched her chin, forcing her to open her eyes and meet his gaze.

"Look at yourself right now."

"Your face is as red as a ripe apple, and your eyes are full of panic."

"Your body is soft as water, you can't even stand steadily."

"How is this some high and mighty heartless Fairy?"

"You are clearly just a... little woman whose heart has been moved, longing for a man's love."

Ye Xiu's words were like a sharp blade, ruthlessly peeling away the final layer of 'aloofness' that served as Qiu Dieyi's disguise.

"You... shameless... rogue..."

Qiu Dieyi's eyes were slightly red, and a layer of mist actually condensed within them.

It was extreme shame, the confusion of a collapsing Dao Heart, and a type of... throbbing that even she found terrifying.

She wanted to raise her hand and slap this man who was being so light with her.

But her arm only made it halfway up before falling limply onto Ye Xiu's chest; the motion looked more like a coquettish display of feigned resistance.

"I am shameless, so what can you do to me?"

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Ye Xiu's desire for conquest was greatly satisfied.

But he did not choose to completely devour this Palace Master right then and there.

Because a true hunter knows that for this kind of high-and-mighty iceberg, shattering her all at once is not as effective as planting a sprouting seed in her heart.

He would let her be tortured by this Heart Demon named 'Ye Xiu' throughout countless days and nights to come.

Until she willingly shed her immortal robes and fell into his Mortal World.

"This game at Tianyin Pass, I, Ye Xiu, am determined to break it."

Ye Xiu slowly lowered his head, his lips—carrying the scent of wine—stopping just a millimeter away from Qiu Dieyi's red lips.

Qiu Dieyi could even feel the temperature of his lips.

She closed her eyes as if accepting her fate, her long eyelashes trembling violently, her body having already softened into a pool of spring water.

However.

The expected kiss did not descend.

Ye Xiu merely gave her nose a frivolous flick.

"Wait for me here obediently."

"Wait until I've dealt with those few old monsters inside."

"Then I'll come back and teach you what true... Mortal Bliss is."

Having said that.

Ye Xiu laughed loudly and decisively released the warm and soft beauty in his arms.

He turned around, his moon-white robe snapping in the wind and snow, as he strode toward the abyss-like depths of Tianyin Pass.

Yu Yuan Chuyu and Long Jiaonan looked at each other, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.

They had witnessed the entire scene just now.

The insufferably arrogant, cold-blooded Palace Master of Liqing.

Had actually been teased until her Dao Heart collapsed and she was as limp as mud by Ye Xiu, without him even using a single move, relying only on words and physical pressure!

This man's methods were simply more terrifying than the Demonic Path!

The two women didn't dare say much and quickly followed Ye Xiu's pace.

And beneath the cliff.

Losing Ye Xiu's support, Qiu Dieyi's body finally slid powerlessly to the ground against the cold cliff wall.

Her snow-white skirt was stained with mud.

But she was completely oblivious to it.

She gasped for breath, her heart pounding like a drum.

She reached out a trembling hand and gently covered the tip of her nose where Ye Xiu had just flicked it, then touched her cheeks, which were as hot as fire.

That Pure Yang Qi belonging to Ye Xiu was still rampaging through her body, provoking every inch of her sensitive nerves.

"Ye Xiu..."

Qiu Dieyi murmured to herself.

In those eyes that were originally dead and empty, extremely complex emotions were now surging.

There was hatred, there was shame and indignation.

But even more so, there was a kind of fatal... threads of love, like opium, which once touched, could never be quit.

Love threads.

This Palace Master of Liqing, who had severed her ties with the Mortal World for a hundred years.

Before Tianyin Pass, in this twilight of swirling snow.

Her heart was completely thrown into chaos.

Facing Ye Xiu, this beauty even forgot her own duties.

She just let the three of them pass so easily.

She even couldn't help but call out a warning as she watched his departing back.

"You, be careful! Those three Seniors are all super old monsters from the previous era, you..."

This was shouted out almost as a reflex.

Even Qiu Dieyi herself didn't know why.

She just extremely didn't want anything to happen to this man.

Hearing this warning, Ye Xiu turned around dashingly and took a swig from his wine gourd.

"Don't worry, I am the Wine Sword Immortal who exorcises demons from the world; no ghosts or monsters can stop me!"

At this moment, the Wine Sword Immortal was exceptionally excited.

What is the most obvious sign of conquering a woman?

Is it obtaining her body?

Wrong!

That's too shallow!

Stealing the heart is the highest Realm!

At this moment, whether Qiu Dieyi admitted it or not, her heart was already completely unable to leave Ye Xiu.

"Madam Qiu, if you are worried about my Lord, why not come along?"

Just then, Long Jiaonan actually extended an unprecedented invitation to this woman.

One must know that these two women should have been competitors.

Yet at this moment, they both gave up everything for Ye Xiu.

"Fine, I will take you there. If you trust me, then follow!"

When these words blurted out and echoed in the wind and snow, Qiu Dieyi herself was stunned.

She was the Palace Master of Liqing, the iceberg Fairy revered by the Righteous Path of the world, and one of the allies in this ambush against the State Preceptor.

But now, she was actually going to personally lead the way for someone to counter-kill her own allies?

If word of this got out, the thousand-year reputation of Liqing Palace would be ruined, and she, Qiu Dieyi, would become the laughingstock of the entire Yankang.

But strangely, at this moment, she didn't feel much guilt for her betrayal.

The figure in snow-white clothes, arrogant and unbridled, was like a vine rooted deep in her Soul, growing wildly.

Wrenching her so-called 'big picture' and 'Dao Heart' into pieces.

"Hahahaha! Good!"

Ye Xiu tilted his head back and took a large gulp of strong wine, his laughter sounding exceptionally bold in Tianyin Pass.

"The woman I, Ye Xiu, have my eye on is naturally trustworthy."

"Dieyi, lead the way!"
