The Journey to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Xiaotao's Affection.

Snow Empress then realized what was happening.

The place that can create gods is by no means an ordinary place.

"You went there because of Xiaotao's Evil Fire?" Snow Empress, with her keen mind, immediately grasped the key point.

"Not entirely," Dai Huabin nodded. "I need some of those Immortal Herb myself."

He needs a divine Immortal Herb with the attribute of light to temper the White Tiger Bloodline a second time.

Ice Empress licked his lollipop and interjected, "If you're going, hurry up, there are plenty of treasures there."

"This time, I plan to go with all five of us." Dai Huabin's gaze swept over the people present. "Me, Lulu, Ling Xi, and the two of you."

Zhu Lu's strength has greatly increased, and she needs real combat experience to adapt.

Di Lingxi herself is the embodiment of auspiciousness and has a natural affinity for rare and precious materials.

The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress provide top-tier combat strength.

Ice Empress and Snow Empress exchanged a glance and both nodded.

"When do we depart?" Snow Empress asked.

There's no need to rush.

Dai Huabin thought for a moment,

"After we go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, we also need to go to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, so I need to tell Ning Tian about it."

"Okay, we'll wait for your message." Ice Empress readily agreed.

With the matter settled, Dai Huabin stood up, ready to leave.

He glanced at Di Lingxi, who was still staring longingly at the playing cards beside him, and asked:

"Ling Xi, it's getting late. Where are you sleeping tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Di Lingxi immediately turned around and naturally took Dai Huabin's arm.

"Of course I'll sleep with you, Huabin! That's what we did at the Star Emperor Hotel, wasn't it?"

The moment these words were spoken, the air in the room seemed to freeze.

Dai Huabin felt a throbbing sensation in his temples.

"How can that be the same!" he explained, half-laughing and half-crying. "In a hotel, you have your own room, but I have a room!"

"But you came to keep me company every night!" Di Lingxi retorted.

Dai Huabin felt extremely overwhelmed.

"That's because the hotel has more rooms! This is the college dormitory, and boys and girls need to live separately!" Dai Huabin tried to reason with them.

"Why?" Di Lingxi's large eyes were filled with pure confusion.

"Because... because that's the rule!" Dai Huabin found himself at a loss for words.

"Who made those rules? I'll go talk to him." Di Lingxi proposed a solution that perfectly aligned with the logic of Soul Beast.

Dai Huabin looked to Ice Empress and Snow Empress for help.

Ice Empress rolled their eyes at him, giving him a "you got yourself into trouble, so deal with it yourself" look.

Snow Empress coughed lightly, looked away, and pretended to be studying the patterns on the cards on the table.

None of them are reliable!

Dai Huabin took a deep breath and forcibly pulled Di Lingxi's arm to walk outside.

"No, you have to sleep with Sister Xue'er and the others tonight!"

"No! I want to sleep with Huabin!" Di Lingxi kicked her feet and clung tightly to the door frame, refusing to leave. "Huabin smells so good, it's comfortable to sleep with him!"

Dai Huabin's face almost turned black.

If others heard him say that, would he still be able to work at the academy?

All he wanted to do now was shut this little brat up.

The next day, Dai Huabin walked out of the room with two light dark circles under his eyes.

He still couldn't win against Di Lingxi. He slept with Di Lingxi and Zhu Lu last night. This is really testing the cadres!

Which cadre can withstand such a test?

Dai Huabin was somewhat helpless. Since things had come to this, let's eat first.

He first ate something quick at the cafeteria, and then went to Ma Xiaotao's dormitory.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I felt a scorching heat rush towards me, more concentrated and pure than before.

He pushed open the door and went in; Ma Xiaotao was sitting cross-legged on the bed.

She changed into a fiery red outfit that perfectly accentuated her stunning figure.

As if sensing his arrival, Ma Xiaotao slowly opened her eyes.

A glint of crimson-gold light flashed in her eyes.

"Level 69." Dai Huabin could tell her Soul Power Level at a glance.

She absorbed a fire-attribute Soul Bone, which further enhanced her Soul Power beyond the peak of level 67, bringing her one step closer to becoming Soul Sage.

"Um."

Ma Xiaotao stood up, stretched her limbs, and felt the surging Soul Power within her body, a satisfied smile on her face.

"I feel much better, and the internal Evil Fire has subsided considerably."

Although Electrolux had already taken steps to purify it, the mutated Evil Fire that had fused with the power of darkness still retained its core.

Completely eradicating it will not be accomplished overnight.

"Let me help you suppress it." Dai Huabin walked up to her.

"Okay." Ma Xiaotao nodded.

With a thought, Dai Huabin felt a sudden urge, and a crystal-clear, emerald-green scorpion tail quietly emerged from behind him.

It was Ice Empress's External Soul Bone, the Ice Jade Scorpion Tail.

The tip of the scorpion's tail shimmered with a mirror-like silvery-white luster, and extreme cold gathered on it.

Ma Xiaotao stared at the scorpion's tail, still not quite understanding what was happening.

The next moment, Dai Huabin wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

At the same time, the Ice Jade Scorpion Tail gently rose and accurately pierced her fair and slender neck.

"Hmm!"

Ma Xiaotao trembled as an extreme chill surged into her neck and flowed through her entire body along her meridians.

The feeling was like being suddenly thrown into an ice cave on a sweltering summer day.

The restless Evil Fire within her body, upon encountering this extreme chill, immediately retreated into a corner like frightened cats, daring not to make the slightest move.

The entire process lasted only a few seconds.

Dai Huabin then retracted the scorpion's tail.

Ma Xiaotao leaned against him, her body still slightly weak, but a strange blush rose on her face.

The neck is such a vulnerable and private place.

He used this method to inject the extreme cold into her body.

This feeling gave her goosebumps all over her body.

"How are you feeling?" Dai Huabin's deep voice sounded in her ear.

"Much better... much better." Ma Xiaotao's voice trembled slightly.

She raised her head, her crimson eyes fixed on Dai Huabin.

During the final match, she stood in front of him without hesitation.

Inside the icy cocoon, he pulled her back from the abyss with all his might.

These scenes replayed in my mind, one after another.

The man before her was no longer just a junior she admired, but her savior and the brightest light in her darkness.

"Huabin." Ma Xiaotao suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly, burying her face in his chest.

"Um?"

"If it weren't for you, I might be dead by now, or turned into a monster that only knows how to kill." Her voice was muffled, tinged with lingering fear.

Dai Huabin's body stiffened slightly. He could feel the trembling of the delicate body in his arms, and he could also feel the heavy emotions she felt.

He recalled the red figure that charged headlong into the black light during the finals.

At that moment, his heart was truly touched.

He raised his hand and gently stroked Ma Xiaotao's fiery red hair, saying softly, "It's all in the past, and besides, Sister Xiaotao, you did it to save me."

"I can't get over it." Ma Xiaotao raised her head, her eyes slightly red, but her gaze was incredibly earnest. "Dai Huabin, I like you."

She was never one to drag things out.

Love is love, and hate is hate.

Having faced life and death, she no longer wanted to suppress her feelings.

Looking into her determined eyes, Dai Huabin felt a deep touch in the softest part of his heart.

Without another word, he lowered his head and kissed those burning red lips.

Ma Xiaotao's response was even more enthusiastic than he had imagined.

She took the initiative, returning his kiss forcefully, as if trying to convey all her emotions to him through that kiss.

The auras of fire and frost mingled between the two.

Lips parting.

Both of them were slightly out of breath.

Ma Xiaotao's face was flushed with a captivating blush, and she looked at him with dreamy eyes.

"Not enough." She licked her lips, her voice hoarse.

The next second, she kissed him again, her hands beginning to roam restlessly over his body.

Dai Huabin was completely ignited by her enthusiasm.

He could no longer restrain himself, and swept her up in his arms, striding towards the bedside.

Ma Xiaotao's arms were tightly wrapped around his neck, and her beautiful legs were wrapped around his waist.

The temperature inside the room rose sharply at that moment.

Dai Huabin hooked the door shut with his heel and slammed it shut.

With a "bang," the door shut out everything outside, leaving only the enchanting atmosphere inside.
