Ice Spirit Ancestor

"Haha, Brother Snow Demon, you flatter me."

The Ice Spirit Ancestor, whose itch had been tickled, stroked his beard and burst into laughter.

With each breath, dense Frost and white mist flowed in and out of his mouth and nose, clearly indicating that he had cultivated the Ice Spirit Clan's Clan Suppressing Divine Art to an extremely profound level.

"Ancestor."

At this moment, a Lower Earth Supreme Stage walked slowly from outside the hall, his hands hanging down.

"What is it? Speak. Brother Snow Demon and the others are not outsiders."

The Ice Spirit Ancestor conversation had been interrupted, frowned and suppressed his anger.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, Lin Dong, the Master of Martial Realm, has come to visit."

Realizing they had arrived at the worst possible time, the Ice Spirit Clan Expert quickly bowed and reported the news.

"Martial Realm? What kind of third-rate force is this? Hmph, this is truly absurd. If just any Tom, Dick, or Harry wants to see me, then what's the point of this old ancestor cultivating?"

The Ice Spirit Ancestor slammed down his cup and let out a displeased snort.

Already in a bad mood, his anger intensified when he heard that the leader of an unknown power had come to pay his respects.

"Ancestor, I do know about the Martial Realm."

"More than half a year ago, the Shaking Light Continent, located in the Land of Extreme South, changed hands and fell into the hands of a group of people who called themselves Martial Realm. The high-ranking members of the Martial Realm all came from the Heavenly Profound Lower Plane and were suppressed by several Heaven Supreme Stage Great Master."

"Lin Dong, the master of the Martial Realm, calls himself the Martial Ancestor. It is likely that the person waiting for the Ancestor to receive him outside the Ice Realm is the Martial Ancestor Lin Dong."

"In my opinion, Ancestor, you might as well meet this Master of Martial Realm. Ancestor, think about it, the Martial Ancestor, as the master of a super power, the first thing he did after establishing his power was to travel Land of Extreme South to my Ice Spirit Continent to request an audience with you, Ancestor."

"Is this not an expression of admiration for your divine might, Ancestor?"

Inside the main hall, the Ice Spirit Clan Chief, a middle-aged man whose cultivation had reached the Spirit Grade Middle Heaven Supreme Stage, spoke.

"Lin Dong, the Master of Martial Realm, a guest from Lower Planes, Heaven Supreme Stage..."

The Ice Spirit Ancestor hesitated slightly.

The Ice Spirit Clan Chief's words are quite true. The first thing a Heaven Supreme Stage Great Master do after establishing his power is to travel thousands of miles to the Ice Realm to request an audience. It would be such a boost to his reputation. I, the Ancestor, am awesome!

"Why does the Martial Ancestor request to see me?"

Thinking of this, the Ice Spirit Ancestor asked without changing his expression.

"Martial Ancestor said: His wife Ying Huanhuan, is a member of our Royal Clan who has been separated from her clan. Divine Soul Fragment is left in our clan's treasure— the Ice Spirit Stele. She wants our clan to give her the favor of taking that Divine Soul Fragment."

The Ice Spirit Clan Expert kneeling below the steps reported.

"The Martial Realm Mistress is a member of my Ice Spirit Royal Clan?"

The Ice Spirit Ancestor muttered something under his breath, and without the slightest hesitation, he resolutely refused. "No, go tell that Martial Ancestor that I will not allow it."

"Firstly, the Ice Spirit Stele is a treasure of our clan and should not be used lightly. Secondly, although Ying Huanhuan is a member of our Royal Clan family, since she has been living away from home and has not returned to the clan after reaching adulthood, she has no further connection with our clan."

"Since they are not of our kind, what right do they have to demand Divine Soul Fragment?"

Originally, a Heaven Supreme Stage Great Master from afar had come just to pay homage to him. He could have simply met him and that would have been enough, and it would have earned him a good reputation. It was a worthwhile and costless thing.

But now, the Martial Ancestor actually wants him, the Ice Spirit Ancestor, to use the Ice Spirit Clan's supreme treasure to return a bit of the True Spirit of that Royal Clan member to him. Don't even think about it.

What right does a country bumpkin from Lower Planes have to order the Ice Spirit Ancestor around? Hmph, overestimating himself!

Ultimately, it's just the arrogance and conceit of the ancient race at play.

"Yes, Ancestor!"

The Ice Spirit Clan Expert showed no surprise and accepted the order to leave.

"Come, Brother Snow Demon, Venerable Dragon, let us drink this cup to the brim."

Having dismissed the uncooperative person, the Ice Spirit Ancestor raised his cup again and drank with his friends, and the hall returned to its previous lively atmosphere.

"Ancestor..."

After a short while, the Earth Supreme Stage who had been there earlier quietly returned.

"What is it? Could it be that Martial Ancestor is being tactless?"

The Ice Spirit Ancestor, who considered himself to be very well-mannered, was completely enraged.

A pair of deep blue, icy eyes coldly surveyed the person kneeling below, conveying the implication that if he didn't give her a reasonable explanation immediately, the ancestor would turn her into an ice block on the spot.

"Ancestor, the Martial Ancestor said he is willing to offer a Spirit Grade Peerless Sacred Object, and hopes that you can grant him this favor by returning a bit of his wife's True Spirit to him. Also, he hopes to borrow our clan's Ice Spirit Stele for a few days to observe it, right here in our Ancestral Land."

The Ice Spirit Clan Expert suddenly snapped to attention and answered in rapid succession.

"Spirit Grade Peerless Sacred Object? This Martial Ancestor is quite generous..."

The anger on the face of the Ice Spirit Ancestor gradually subsided, and a hint of interest appeared on his face.

Peerless Sacred Object are at the very top of the spiritual artifact system in the Great Thousand World. They possess a variety of powerful abilities, and even the lowest-ranking ones require at least one hundred million Supreme Spirit Fluid.

Many powerful Heaven Supreme Stage Sovereigns who are short of money may not even own a single Peerless Sacred Object, and are still using high-level Sacred Object sets to make up for it. This thing is really expensive.

Even though the Ice Spirit Clan is large and powerful, they only have a handful of Peerless Sacred Object treasures. For example, the Ice Spirit Clan's supreme treasure Ice Spirit Stele, is an Immortal Grade Peerless Sacred Object.

Normally, the Ice Spirit Clan would worship it as a Sacred Object.

"Very well, then let's go and invite the Martial Ancestor..."

Just as the Ice Spirit Ancestor was about to reply, a voice came from the side saying, "Wait a minute."

The speaker was a Golden Robe Man.

He looked to be around thirty years old at most, with a handsome face, fair skin, and a majestic presence. His golden robe added to his noble air, and he possessed a calm and composed demeanor.

Most importantly, he actually sat on equal footing with several Heaven Supreme Stage Great Master figures, including the Ice Spirit Ancestor, and his demeanor was in no way inferior to the former three.

The Hundred Battle Emperor, the Battle Emperor!

"Oh, what hope does the Battle Emperor have?"

The Ice Spirit Ancestor looked over and immediately smiled.

Although the four of them are all Spirit Grade Late Heaven Supreme Stage, he and Snow Demon have both lived for tens of thousands of years, while Battle Emperor is only over seventy years old this year, a young man who is young beyond measure and has the potential to become Saint Grade.

The Ice Spirit Ancestor was naturally exceptionally polite to such a promising young prodigy who had the potential to become Saint Grade. It would be even better if he could secure a deal with him in advance.

After all, placing bets in advance is the most cost-effective option.

"Hehe, I wouldn't dare to offer advice, but I do have a suggestion."

"Since the wife of the Martial Ancestor is the Martial Realm Mistress, her appearance and figure must be exceptional. As the saying goes, a graceful lady is sought after by gentlemen. I would like to see for myself just how beautiful this Martial Realm Mistress is."

The handsome Battle Emperor chuckled, revealing a wicked smile that any man would understand.

He is Battle Emperor Lineage Successor. In addition to possessing the War Battle Emperor's Heart Sutra War Emperor, he also has a miraculous skill called the Great Emperor's Inner Scripture.

The Great Emperor's Inner Scripture has the ability to cultivate dual cultivation. If two equally skilled dual cultivators join forces to cultivate, their progress in cultivation will be even faster.

With the Great Emperor's Inner Scripture at his disposal, the Battle Emperor, who rose to fame at a young age, is naturally an exceptionally romantic figure. Although he is not yet married, he already has quite a few female confidantes.
