Chapter 574: Chapter 574

After Baimei had disappeared beside the Moon Goddess and appeared inside of it, Yue Xuexia calmly watched the scenes the book is showing as if looking at a moving picture book with sounds and movements. Shen Jueyang who had just finished talking to the God of Wisdom came to find Yue Xuexia and found her at a secluded corner with a book floating in front of her while holding a glass of chocolate milk tea in her right hand and an eclair in her left hand. She was totally in vacation mode.

Shen Jueyang was stunned at first and finally chuckled to get Yue Xuexia’s attention.

The Moon Goddess said, "Oh? Is your conversation done?"

The Immortal Sun Emperor nodded his head as he sat at the opposite chair across Yue Xuexia. He watched as Yue Xuexia waves her hand and a steaming black coffee filled kettle appeared in front of him and a mug. He serves himself some coffee and joins Yue Xuexia in her small tea party.

Shen Jueyang smells the roast coffee bean before sipping at it. Then I looked at the book cover floating in front of Yue Xuexia. The moment he saw the title saying ’Awakening of the Ice Phoenix’. He knew that this event must have involved Yue Xuexia’s aide, Tan Bingyu and her lover, Xue Renxue.’

The Immortal Sun Emperor moved his seat to be placed beside the Moon Goddess and saw the moving image of Tan Bingyu, Xue Renxue and their recently contracted spirit beast, the Snow Leopard, Baimei. The three just reunited after a short separation and are currently at the place that looks like the village’s chief’s house.

Shen Jueyang asked, "Is this a legacy book from the ice phoenix?"

"I might not be a complete legacy. It will depend on the remnant soul wisp in this book if it was willing to disappear," Yue Xuexia said.

The Immortal Sun Emperor senses the weak soul fragment attached to the book. It is similar to that ghost that had connection to those three goddesses (Poison Goddess, Holy Witch and Qin Ancestor). The only reason Shen Jueyang remembers these three goddesses is because of their master’s soul fragment which had connection with the Tang Clan Sect in the Immortal World. Even though this sect is not a sect due to their exclusive nature, their strength can at least contend against the Hall of Souls.

Shen Jueyang chuckled and said, "With your presence, all of its original plan must have been shelved. Like a mere soul wisp would make a move against the people under your protection."

"How would you know the ending? The older the soul is, the more cunning they are," retorted Yue Xuexia.

The Immortal Sun Emperor had nothing to say. After all, what the Moon Goddess is correct. The older the soul is, the more backup plans, schemes and plots they have made. Like in this current situation, even though the soul in the book can’t harm the couple and Baimei, he can ask them to bring him away. Though keeping a fading soul from completely disappearing, the Moon Goddess is here and there is also the Immortal Sun Emperor.

Yue Xuexia and Shen Jueyang continue to watch what was unfolding within the book. In it Baimei, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue had finally found the village chief and unexpectedly, it was a female village chief. The reason they found her is because a few villagers had run into the house urgently looking for her.

A female voice coming from the interior of the house shouted back, "What is it this time?"

The owner of this voice is a young lady wearing furred clothing due to the endless cold season. In this place, this kind of clothing is the norm.

The villagers gathered around the young lady and said,

"Something strange had been found within the snow hill while we were flattening the snow!"

"It’s a strange round and big white egg!"

"It is seriously big."

"No matter what we do we can’t break it!"

"Chief Xue, please come with us to check on it!"

This whole village is made up of cultivators. Moreover, in this timeline the qi was not sparse at all. That’s why even though some of these men and women are in their fifties, they still look like someone in their late twenties or thirties. Among them, the village chief looked the youngest but the most powerful in the group.

Moreover, this village chief, she looks like a female version of Xue Renxue with a bit of Tan Bingyu’s features. The three of them looked surprised upon seeing the face of the village chief.

{This is... a bit... weird. Why does this human female look so much like you two?} Baimei asked in disbelief. {This is clearly Renxue’s female version.}

Xue Renxue ignored Baimei’s words and said, "They called her Xue. Is she our ancestor?"

"That can be the only explanation after looking this similar to us," said Tan Bingyu.

After observing the village chief for a while, she realized that she is barely in her fifties but her cultivation was high enough to beat them who are already in their hundred.

"She is at Huashen Realm at the age fifty. Her talent is only a bit worse than the mistress,"

Baimei said, {It might not be talent alone. Do you not feel that the purity of qi in this timeline is hundred times greater than in our world’s timeline? This is the past where the qi isn’t depleted yet and abundant instead.}

{If you were born in this era, you would most likely be at Mahayama (Void Refining) Realm or beyond. This woman was not born with any special physique like yours.}

The couple observed the village chief and saw that Baimei was indeed correct. They couldn’t understand why such a world rich in qi was depleted enough for their era to make a separate realm just to preserve as much world qi as possible.

The Village Chief called Xue agreed with the villagers to see that strange egg they are all talking about.

"Alright! Let’s go see that egg then. Show the way," she said.

Almost everyone in the village followed their chief out as one of the leads to the said location of the strange egg. Tan Bingyu, Xue Renxue and Baimei chased after them and went to an open area near the mountain peak.

"Chief Xue, this way!"

"Here! Here! It’s that egg!"

The villagers who found the egg pointed to the big round thing near the peak of the mountain. Now everyone collectively looks at the huge white egg with light blue shade. After it was partially covered in white snow, if no one took a closer look they would think this is not an egg but a small hill instead.

"Oh my god! It’s a damn huge egg!" The Village Chief exclaimed.

Pfft! The most update n0vels are published on NoveI-Fire.ɴet

When the three who were acting as passersby heard and saw the reaction of the village chief, the two females in the team looked at Xue Renxue. After all, this kind of reaction is very similar to the silly antics of Xue Renxue. You can say that it’s already his personality. To think one of their ancestors all possessed such a personality, now they couldn’t deny that this village chief is indeed their ancestor.

Baimei commented, {Renxue, this is definitely your ancestor. You both have uncontrollable tongues.}

"I don’t think I am that bad. Right, Bing’er?" Xue Renxue said seeking comfort from his beloved.

However, Tan Bingyu, who rarely lied, didn’t know how to answer and it took a while before a single word came out of her mouth.

Seeing this reaction from Tan Bingyu, Baimei laughs out loud as she knew that Tan Bingyu thought a lot just to say this word. As for Xue Renxue, he smiled as he thought that his dao companion was innocent and adorable as always.

Tan Bingyu said, "Enough with jokes. What do you think this egg is and why is it so big?"

"Are there even any spirits or divine beasts whose cubs are this size?" said Xue Renxue.

Baimei said, {Only an Island Whale cub can have this kind of size, but this divine beast isn’t born on land but in water or the sky. So this is definitely not a beast egg with a cub inside.}

{The only possibility is... Don’t you remember what kind of book we are in?}

The couple looked at one another and said together, "Ice Phoenix!?"

{Correct. This must be a phoenix nirvana rebirth. But unlike the fire phoenix who is reborn from flames, ice phoenixes go back to their egg state and complete maturity in it until it hatches which will complete their rebirth.} Baimei said.

The three of them observed the villager encircling the huge egg.

"Is this thing truly an egg?? Not a round, polished stone or something?" Village Chief Xue mumbled while walking around the egg.

"Alright! Let me break it!" She decided.

The Village Chief tried to break it but suddenly heard some kind of voice in her head.

{No! Don’t break the egg!} This is the voice that rang in the head of the Village Chief Xue.
