Extreme Ice, Lin Hai Sets a Trap

The Shui Bing'er sisters stayed by Shui Yunshu's side, observing her reaction after taking the Elixir Pill.

It wasn't until late at night that Shui Yunshu slowly opened her eyes.

Her soul Soul Power surged and rippled, unleashing the aura of Soul Douluo without reservation, carrying an extreme chill that instantly Ice Seal the entire room.

This also includes the unsuspecting Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.

Upon seeing this, Shui Yunshu immediately shook off the ice layer on her daughter's body and anxiously helped them up. "Are you alright?"

In just a moment, the two women's lips turned purple from the cold and they shivered all over.

Shui Bing'er spoke with difficulty, "Mom... why does your Soul Power... carry such a strong chill?"

Seeing that Shui Bing'er could still speak, Shui Yue'er shook her head to indicate that she was alright, even though her face was pale. Shui Yunshu quickly led the two into the bathroom and gently rinsed their bodies with warm water.

Fifteen minutes later, the two gradually recovered.

Shui Yue'er said with lingering fear, "Aunt Yun, you seem to be much stronger than before!"

While wiping their bodies, Shui Yunshu couldn't hide her excitement and said, "Their Soul Power has broken through from level 82 to level 85."

"Most importantly, the strength of the ice attribute in my Martial Soul has greatly increased, perhaps... it has reached the ' Extreme Ice ' recorded in the ancestral book."

The two sisters took the towel at the same time, and exclaimed in shock:

"Extreme Ice!"

Level 85!

The two sisters exchanged a glance. Shui Bing'er's eyes were full of "ignorance is no excuse," while Shui Yue'er still looked bewildered, as if asking, "What is the Extreme Ice?"

Shui Yunshu chuckled as she watched their reactions.

Shui Yue'er was unaware of the significance of "Extreme Ice" and was only focused on leveling up.

Shui Bing'er, however, knew that compared to the Ultimate Attribute, the increase of a few levels of Soul Power was insignificant.

She hurriedly asked, "Mom, are you sure it's the Extreme Ice?"

"Not entirely certain." Shui Yunshu shook her head. "There is no clear definition of Extreme Ice in our ancestral home, but I can sense that the Martial Soul attribute is far purer and more powerful than before."

She led the two women back to the room and carefully explained the concept of "Extreme Ice" to Shui Yue'er, adding:

"However, there are some problems... After the attribute is enhanced, it can be difficult to control at times. Just like that moment when the cold air overflowed."

"It will probably take quite a while to get used to this. You all need to be extra careful around me from now on."

The two women nodded quickly.

In the past, they were the ones who Heavenly Water Ice Seal others, but today the tables have turned, and they don't want to experience it a second time.

"Looking back at Lin Hai's words now, perhaps he had anticipated this situation," Shui Yunshu analyzed.

He then looked up at the wall clock and sighed:

"I didn't expect it to take so long to absorb this Elixir Pill. If you were to take it, it would probably take several days, and you might even miss the Promotion Tournament."

Shui Yue'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said excitedly, "Mother Yun, Sister, shall we go to Lin Hai tomorrow to get the other three Elixir Pill?"

"We've already qualified, so the Promotion Tournament are just a matter of ranking. If you take the Elixir Pill, we'll definitely amaze everyone in the finals!"

Shui Bing'er frowned and hesitated, "Wouldn't that be too conspicuous?"

"My mother's Soul Douluo cultivation level has increased by three levels. If I take this, I'm afraid I'll break through to Soul King directly..."

Shui Yue'er said dismissively, "What's there to be afraid of?"

"Anyway, we've already decided to align ourselves with the Spirit Hall, and besides, you're not the first person whose strength has skyrocketed."

Shui Yunshu smiled and nodded, "Yue'er is right, it's not a big deal. At worst, Bing'er, you won't play at all during the entire Promotion Tournament."

"I'll go see Lin Hai tomorrow to express my gratitude and also to hear his opinion."

Lin Hai was not asleep at this time.

He held the sleeping Zhu Zhuqing in one arm, and examined the "Profound Ice Phoenix" Jade Pendant closely with the other.

Despite repeated attempts to perceive it, nothing was gained.

Aside from its precious material and exquisite craftsmanship, this Jade Pendant seems to be... just an ordinary piece of jade.

Why is it specified that the head of the household's partner must keep it?

'Could it be true, as I suspected, that the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul inheritor's partner is required to safeguard it? But what exactly is so special about this Martial Soul?'

He pondered the problem but still couldn't find a solution, so he decided to remove the barrier in his dantian the next day and ask the Bodhi Ancient Tree for help.

The next day.

Lin Hai lay on the rocking chair in the courtyard and transmitted his thoughts telepathically:

"Old Bodhi Tree, how is it? Can you see anything unusual?"

A moment later, the voice of the Bodhi Ancient Tree drifted over:

"This jade contains a small array, seemingly a defensive array, yet also resembling a spirit-gathering array... I can't quite put my finger on it. Everything in this Douluo Continent is strange."

A defensive formation? A spirit-gathering formation?

Lin Hai took out the Jade Pendant from his dantian and tried to slowly inject his Soul Power into it—but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no reaction whatsoever.

He didn't dare to actually attack the Jade Pendant; if he accidentally destroyed it, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.

He had set a trap for Shui Yunshu, just waiting for that beautiful and elegant woman to come to him.

The Shui Family family rules clearly concealed some matters that Shui Yunshu had not elaborated upon—

The family rules strictly stipulate that the Jade Pendant must be kept by the head of the family's partner. How could the head of the family not distinguish between the current head of the family and the future heir?

I've never heard of such a token of identity and inheritance that can be handed over in advance!

This is similar to Lin Hai himself. As the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, he will naturally become the next Pope if nothing unexpected happens.

But before he actually succeeded to the Pope, he had absolutely no right to create a "Pope's Wife Token" to give to his woman...

The most reasonable procedure should be that he and Shui Bing'er officially get married, and after Shui Bing'er takes over as the head of the Shui Family, the Jade Pendant will be handed over to him!

However, when he returned the Jade Pendant, Shui Yunshu, the current head of the family, did not take it back. What was the reason for this?

She also bluntly stated that she could directly pass the position of family head to his child with Shui Bing'er.

Upon closer examination, this statement raises even more questions.

While the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul is indeed powerful, how could his own Martial Soul be weak, given that he is the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall?

Why was Shui Yunshu so certain that the child's Martial Soul would be inherited by the Ice Phoenix, rather than by his own Martial Soul?

Having spent a long time with Ye Yunyao, Lin Hai knew the difficulty of a woman managing a second-rate family and navigating the complexities of dealing with various forces.

Besides governing the entire family, Shui Yunshu also needs to manage Skywater Academy. Her actions and words must be meticulous and thorough. How could her words be full of flaws?

Therefore, he was almost certain that the head of the Shui Family was hiding something.

Lin Hai also prepared a small trap for her, and it remains to be seen whether the Shui Family head will actually step into it!

Although Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun were exceptional, Lin Hai secretly preferred the more mature types like Ah Yin and Liu Erlong ...

In the Douluo Continent, strength reigns supreme.

Only with greater strength can we withstand more intense attacks...

Well, it's just that his current physical condition is too abnormal; a delicate flower can't withstand a sudden downpour!
