175: Chapter 175 Xiao Ruoxue's Fatal Weakness

The absolute zero astral wind tore through the Qifeng Pavilion's Formation.

The lingering fragrance of medicinal herbs in the room froze instantly.

Xiao Ruoxue stood by the shattered sandalwood door.

Her ice-blue dress billowed, and her brow was covered in thick frost.

The Law fluctuations of a Half-step Immortal King covered the entire scene without reservation.

That pressure, enough to freeze a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal into an ice sculpture, bypassed Zi Yun and crashed entirely toward Su Yun on the jade couch.

Su Yun did not stand up.

He remained with his limbs stretched out, leaning against the Spirit-Concentrating Cold Jade.

His thin white clothes whipped in the extremely cold astral wind.

No protective Immortal light, no resistance from magic power.

That devastating icy pressure struck Su Yun's body, but not even a speck of ice remained; it melted directly into nothingness.

Su Yun's breathing frequency didn't even change; his deep black eyes swept over Xiao Ruoxue from bottom to top without concealment.

From her cold and ethereal face to her full-curved chest, and down to her pristine jade feet.

His gaze held a naked aggressiveness.

This was not the look of one facing a powerful enemy, but the scrutiny of a hunter eyeing a top-quality prey.

Xiao Ruoxue's brow furrowed tightly.

Immortal power surged in her palm as she increased the pressure once more.

The surrounding space emitted an overburdened cracking sound, and three feet of deep blue ice condensed on the floor.

The youth on the jade couch still had no reaction.

Xiao Ruoxue's Dao Heart shook.

She could not see through this Lower Realm Mortal.

When her Half-step Immortal King Laws landed on him, she directly lost all perception of them.

It was as if an unfathomable abyss lay dormant within his body.

Kneeling beside Su Yun, Zi Yun keenly captured the predatory fire in his eyes and did not go mad or draw her sword as she usually would.

She knew Su Yun's character very well.

Once her husband set his eyes on something, no one could escape.

Since her husband was interested in this half-sister of the same clan, then this would be the new gift she offered to him.

A trace of morbid excitement flashed in Zi Yun's eyes.

She quietly tugged at Su Yun's sleeve and sent a secret transmission.

"Does husband want her? This piece of black ice doesn't know how to serve people. How about I break her pride inch by inch, train her to be as obedient as me, and then strip her bare to be sent to your couch?"

Su Yun did not stop her, casually pinching Zi Yun's cheek.

Receiving tacit permission, Zi Yun immediately stood up.

She casually pulled a light purple veil over her shoulders and stepped barefoot onto the biting ice, walking toward Xiao Ruoxue with a light pace.

She stopped three steps away from Xiao Ruoxue.

"Sister Ruoxue, it's been a long time. Why did you break my bedroom door as soon as you came out of seclusion?"

Zi Yun had a sweet smile on her face as she called out affectionately.

Looking at the wreckage of the medicine boxes all over the floor, and then at Zi Yun's overtly seductive appearance, Xiao Ruoxue's anger rushed to her head.

"Nickname, do you know what you are doing?"

Xiao Ruoxue's voice was cold and bone-piercing.

"One hundred thousand years of Inner Treasury resources, all taken by you to support a Lower Realm mortal bone! The entire Divine Mountain is filled with complaints. Are you going to destroy the Xiao Family's Foundation for this worthless lowly peasant?"

The smile on Zi Yun's face grew even wider.

"Worthless?"

She leaned in a few steps and lowered her voice.

"Sister, you've been in seclusion for too long and your brain has rotted. Why do you think the Old Ancestor doesn't stop me? It's because the Old Ancestor is smarter than you."

Xiao Ruoxue's A sharp look.

"Husband's talent is unique throughout the ages. For those mundane items to be devoured by him is a blessing the Xiao Family has cultivated for a hundred thousand years."

Zi Yun's tone became fanatical, her cheeks flushing.

"You frogs at the bottom of a well simply don't understand husband's greatness. Sister, if you had the chance to experience husband's methods once, you would also willingly kneel at his feet and beg him for a second glance."

Xiao Ruoxue looked at her biological sister in disbelief.

Mad.

Completely and utterly mad.

A dignified Xiao Family Goddess actually said such shameless and lewd words about a Lower Realm person who didn't even have any Immortal Qi.

"What kind of soul-stealing technique did he use on you?" Xiao Ruoxue grasped the ice-blue immortal sword that appeared out of thin air. "Today, I shall slay this monster for the Old Ancestor!"

The blade was halfway out of its scabbard.

A crisp mechanical notification suddenly exploded deep within Su Yun's Sea of Consciousness.

The long-dormant System had finally completed its restart after absorbing a large amount of high-level resources from the Upper Realm.

[Ding! System repair complete. High-dimensional plane detection module online.]

[Scanning current scene...]

[Locking onto high-value target: Xiao Ruoxue.]

[Detected top-tier rare Physique: Law Affinity Dao Body.]

[This Physique is extremely compatible with the Heavenly Dao Origin within the host's body.]

[If taken as a Dual Cultivation cauldron, the host can ignore the rejection of the Upper Realm's fragmented Laws, perfectly integrate into this realm's Great Dao, and increase control by ten times.]

[Mission issued: Conquer and plunder Xiao Ruoxue.]

[Target status decrypted: Target has long been forcibly channeling the Upper Realm's fragmented frost Laws, and her dao foundation has suffered severe backlash.]

[Every full moon night, she must endure the pain of Ten Thousand Ice Heart-Devouring.]

[Estimated remaining Lifespan: less than three years.]

[Solution: Requires the complete Heavenly Dao Origin to reshape the Law circuits within her body.]

The System's information panel scrolled rapidly before Su Yun's eyes.

A very hidden dark red light flashed in the depths of Su Yun's eyes.

Finding it by chance after a long search.

He was just lacking a perfect springboard to connect with the Upper Realm's Laws, and this woman delivered herself to his door.

Not only was she an excellent cultivation resource, but she was also a fragile item that could shatter at any moment.

Su Yun stood up and stepped barefoot onto the three-foot-thick deep blue ice in the center of the hall.

As his foot landed.

Crack.

The Law-hardened ice condensed from absolute zero emitted a desperate wail.

Centered on Su Yun's toes, the ice shattered inch by inch, turning into a sky full of white mist.

With steady steps, he walked toward Xiao Ruoxue one pace at a time.

There was no surge of magic power around him, but that terrifying pressure originating from a high-dimensional plane...

...materially flattened the absolute cold Domain released by Xiao Ruoxue.

The temperature inside the hall rose rapidly.

The frost receded, and the astral wind calmed.

Xiao Ruoxue's pupils shrank slightly; her hand holding the sword froze in mid-air, unable to pull it out or push it back.

That eerie power that flattened her Domain was domineering, pure, and transcended all Upper Realm Laws she knew.

She actually felt a suppressive force from this Lower Realm youth that made her marrow run cold.

Zi Yun obediently retreated to the side, leaving space, her eyes filled with obsession as she gazed at Su Yun's back.

Su Yun stopped in front of Xiao Ruoxue.

The two were less than half a foot apart.

Su Yun looked down at her from above.

Devoid of his initial laziness, the current Su Yun exuded an extremely dangerous, wicked aura.

He raised his right hand, pressing his index and middle fingers together against the hilt of Xiao Ruoxue's ice-blue immortal sword.

Ting.

The immortal sword was forced back into its scabbard.

"Sister has come from afar, why the need for weapons?" Su Yun spoke, his voice low and steady.

Xiao Ruoxue bit her lower lip hard, frantically mobilizing the Immortal Qi in her body in an attempt to resist.

But she found that the frost Laws she was so proud of completely lost their connection the moment they touched Su Yun's fingertips.

She was locked down.

This worthless lowly peasant had sealed her Half-step Immortal King cultivation with just one finger.

Horror, incomprehension, humiliation.

Various emotions intertwined violently in Xiao Ruoxue's cold eyes.

Seeing her forced pride, the corner of Su Yun's mouth curled into a very faint arc.

He leaned in slightly, close to Xiao Ruoxue's ear.

His warm breath hit Xiao Ruoxue's cold cheek, triggering an instinctive shiver.

"Forcibly channeling fragmented Laws into your body—it doesn't feel good, does it?"

Su Yun's voice was very low, audible only to the two of them.

Xiao Ruoxue's body suddenly stiffened.

Su Yun continued to whisper in her ear, every word accurately striking her Dao Heart.

"Every full moon night, ten thousand shards of ice devour your heart and your Meridians shatter. You rely on large quantities of top-grade fire-attribute Immortal Pills just to stay alive."

"This broken Law Affinity Dao Body is about to freeze your Divine Soul to pieces."

Su Yun straightened up, his gaze locking onto Xiao Ruoxue's eyes.

"Let me count the time." Su Yun's tone was relaxed, exuding a coldness that suggested everything was within his grasp. "You probably won't last more than three years, will you?"

Xiao Ruoxue's pupils instantly contracted to their limit.
