"As for my own future..."
Zhou Meier gave a bitter smile. "Compared with making several Lords place themselves in danger—or even certain death—my own future and the plan to secure it are insignificant!"
Yan Beihan frowned. "I can't say what's wrong, but ever since we arrived here, I've felt my heart pounding. It's the kind of pounding that leaves me flustered and uneasy."
Bing Tianxue grew impatient. "It's only Yin Water Palace, a tiny little place. Even if there's a conspiracy, what can they do? I could flatten the entire Yin Water Palace with one hand!"
"Don't be careless."
Yan Beihan said, "Ice Aunt, I admit that with Yin Water Palace's current strength, you're certainly invincible. But once we enter the water, our combat strength will be different. Water's power isn't the same as fire's. Water Force can truly swallow the sky and sweep across the earth, topple mountains and overturn seas."
Bing Tianxue raised her exquisite brows. "With the Ice Heaven Skill in hand, even if I can't freeze the entire waters, I can still create icy platforms step by step, ensuring I always have somewhere to draw strength from. What difficulty could underwater combat pose?"
"It's not that simple."
Yan Beihan said, "Ice Aunt, we won't abandon Yin Water Palace's plan. But we have to discuss it at the water's surface! Or rather, at the mountaintop."
"You're being far too cautious."
Bing Tianxue was somewhat displeased.

But the informant remained silent for a long while.
They were still waiting.
Yan Beihan received a message from Feng Xue: "Xiao Han, where are you? I've reached Thousand Rivers Vein."
