The Snow Soul Rhombus Crystal Bracelet is a Spirit Artifact composed of thirty-two snowflake-shaped crystals.

It has three main functions.

1. Size Manipulation

The snowflakes on the bracelet can be reduced to tiny snowflakes with a diameter of 1 millimeter, or enlarged into a huge disc with a diameter of three feet.

2: Cutting

The edges of the snowflakes are incredibly sharp, and their sharpness increases dramatically with high-speed rotation. This is the main attack method of the Snow Soul Rhombus Crystal Bracelet.

Three: Cold air

The Snow Soul Rhombus Crystal Bracelet can release freezing cold air at minus seventy degrees Celsius, freezing everything while creating a combat environment that suits the Snow Jade Glazed Body.

In Yang Ning's view, these three points were the perfect scalpel.

Not only is its sharpness comparable to a scalpel, but its freezing effect can also be used to stop bleeding, and its Size Manipulation design allows it to penetrate deep into the capillaries of the human body, enabling more delicate and complex procedures.

The only drawback is the need for stitches, but cultivators at the Body Refinement Realm don't need stitches at all. They can manipulate the muscles to stick together, and the muscles can heal on their own in a few tens of minutes!

As her robes were gently removed, Xue Xian, though determined, couldn't help feeling shy.

But looking at Yang Ning's expression, which remained completely unmoved, as if he were looking at a stone, one couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"Am I not beautiful?" Xue Xian asked softly.

"Beautiful!" Yang Ning nodded seriously. Although it was small, it was still very cute, and the shape was perfect. It was the style that Yang Ning liked.

Okay, to be honest, he likes quite a few styles.

"Then why did you not react at all?" Xue Xian asked, "Not even blushing!"

"I'm having surgery right now, sister. Aren't you afraid my hands will shake?" Yang Ning said irritably.

Although he had tested the effects of the poison in the Spirit Realm and performed the surgery on his own clones countless times.

But this is the first time it's happened to Xue Xian!

"Alright, alright!" Xue Xian dared not tease Yang Ning anymore, and instead struggled to raise her head to look at the operating room.

Seeing your heart being ripped open in this position is truly a unique experience.

Moreover, he used his own Spirit Artifact!

"Why doesn't it hurt?" Xue Xian asked after watching for a while.

Maybe he's been putting on a cool and aloof act for too long?

"I severed your nervous system with Thunder Method!" Yang Ning said. "Alright, I can see your heart now!"

"Huh?" Xue Xian was taken aback and quickly said, "Could I see it too? I don't even know what my heart looks like!"

"Nothing special!" Yang Ning took a small mirror out of his Storage Bag and handed it to Xue Xian: "Try to find it yourself!"

Xue Xian was somewhat surprised; could that really be done?

She raised the small mirror with her left hand, looking at the beating heart at the wound, and a strange emotion welled up inside her.

So this is where my life came from!

Then, she saw Yang Ning grab her heart.

"Huh?" This feeling is even stranger now.

I used to say that my heart was captured by you; that was a sweet nothing.

But now, her heart is truly in the hands of a man!

For some inexplicable reason, the girl trembled as if electrocuted, and when she looked at Yang Ning again, the swirling light in her eyes had taken on a different meaning.

He's actually very handsome, with crescent-shaped eyebrows, bright eyes, and long eyelashes!

But why wear glasses?

His expression was so serious, and that serious expression was only shown when he was trying to save me.

Thinking about it this way, I felt a warm feeling in my heart.

Oh, so it was my heart that was in his hands. What I felt must have been the warmth of his palm?

The next moment, the girl froze; she couldn't feel her heartbeat anymore!

"Come on, this view is wide open, you can clearly see your heart!" Yang Ning had completely cut off the blood vessels and removed the heart.

If a modern patient saw this, they would probably be terrified!

But Xue Xian's mind was completely occupied by Bai Qi at that moment, so she didn't have time to think about anything else. Instead, she felt that her heart was in his hands, which was so romantic!

"Uh, aren't you shocked?" Yang Ning asked, noticing the girl whose eyebrows were curved like crescent moons and whose expression seemed a bit off.

"What's so shocking?" The girl blinked. "Didn't you just tell me the steps?"

"Uh, but..." Yang Ning scratched his head, "Do you know what problem I just solved?"

Blood can still circulate even after leaving the heart!

This is the ultimate technique I developed by combining Thunder Method, water magic, Crimson Dragon Crimson Cloud Strength, and Heavenly Dragon World Ending Sound. If that famous doctor, Ling Ran, or the renowned surgeon in the live surgery room saw this, he would probably kneel down before me!

Okay, she's an amateur; she can't understand it or hear it.

"This is the poison you've been given!" Yang Ning covered his hands with frost, keeping the heart active while cutting it open and taking out a pea-sized ball of black liquid.

"This is a fibrotic heart. It can be removed. Your heart will be weak for a while, but it will heal quickly!" Yang Ning performed the surgery entirely in front of the patient, completely preventing any doctor-patient conflict.

Judging from the girl's wide, staring eyes, the surgery must have been quite effective!

"Alright, surgery complete!" Yang Ning closed the laceration in Xue Xian's heart, then repositioned the heart and reconnected it to the meridians and arteries.

"Now let's see if we can control our Qi and Blood?" Yang Ning asked.

"Huh?" Xue Xian's eyes lit up; she could no longer feel the pain in her heart!

Moreover, the flow of Qi and Blood can really be smooth!

"Did you succeed?" Xue Xian asked, her big, round eyes filled with anticipation.

"Okay!" Yang Ning nodded. "However, I'll still be maintaining the wounds; you'll need to circulate your qi Qi and Blood to help them heal!"

"Good!" As long as the Qi and Blood can circulate normally, even a minor injury can heal in ten minutes if left untreated.

If the supervisor controls the flow of Qi and Blood to repair the body, it only takes a few seconds.

This is the vitality and cellular activity of the Body Refinement Realm, and it is also the most fundamental skill among the basic skills of the Body Refinement Realm cultivator.

You may not be able to leave a trace in the snow, but that just means you're not as dashing.

But if you can't recover quickly, it could be fatal!

Fortunately, Xue Xian didn't mess up in this situation. In just over ten seconds, the severed arteries, veins, and the wound on her heart had completely healed.

The final step is to close the open chest. Again, no stitches are needed; let Xue Xian control the Qi and Blood to heal on its own.

And so, 20 seconds later, the heart surgery performed under extremely harsh conditions in the cave was completed!

Yang Ning helped Xue Xian put on her clothes, then put the Snow Soul Rhombus Crystal Bracelet back in its place and handed it to Xue Xian.

"I'll leave it here!" Xue Xian.

"Huh?" Yang Ning was taken aback. "What did you say?"

"I said, you can keep this Spirit Artifact for now, since I can't use it right now anyway!" The girl's face was flushed. Although her mind was completely focused on her own heart and her feelings for her boyfriend, she had also noticed Yang Ning's skillful control over the Spirit Artifact.

It's obvious that he also has an exceptional talent for manipulating Spirit Artifacts, to the point that even though the Spirit Artifacts are perfectly suited to his physique, others seem to use them better!

Her possession of this Spirit Artifact would only excite the thugs, but if it were Yang Ning, he might be able to kill all the disciples of the Ten Myriad Saints Alliance!

"Alright!" Yang Ning nodded. Now was not the time to be modest. After all, the Moon Golden Wheel, the Dragon Venerable Cannon, the shield, Wind-Calling Horn were all out of his hands, and his strength had suddenly dropped by 0.04%, leaving him with only 0.09996%.

I really don't feel safe.

Even though it was a perfectly normal surgery, the atmosphere is just very strange.

Xue Xian sat sideways, and the collar of her dress, which she had just casually draped over her shoulders, slipped down again, revealing her fair and delicate shoulders, but she didn't seem to care.

Yang Ning felt alright, after all, his current persona was that of an innocent young man who was naive and uninterested in women.

"So, what's the situation now?" Yang Ning asked. "Would you major sects send in so many trial participants at once?"

He's clearly the only one in Taiheng, isn't he?

"I don't know either!" Xue Xian shook her head and said, "I brought people in to collect more Purple Heart Stones in order to gain higher prestige and status, but it makes no sense for the Myriad Saints Alliance to do this!"

"And those sixteen people don't seem to have a clear leader!"

When the topic doesn't involve Yang Ning, Xue Xian remains quite rational.

"So?"

"They must have come for the Xuantian Sect!" Xue Xian frowned and said, "This Xuantian Sect brazenly attacked my guards, completely disregarding my identity!"

"What can your status do to him?" Yang Ning asked. "He's from the Myriad Saints Alliance. No matter how far your Tianyi Sect can reach, can you really control him?"

"We can't really control him, but we can offer him a bounty!" Xue Xian. "The Myriad Saints Alliance isn't united; if the price is high enough, plenty of people will be willing to take him down!"

"Perhaps he doesn't think that far ahead!" Yang Ning said, spreading his hands. "After all, he can't be a teenager!"

"Growing up in an environment like the Myriad Saints Alliance, even at seven or eight years old, let alone a teenager, his mental fortitude would be unmatched by ordinary people!" Xue Xian said earnestly, "Not to mention his immense strength, you absolutely mustn't underestimate them!!"

"I understand!!" Yang Ning felt that Xue Xian's teachings to him this time were different from before.

At that time, she showed more care and love towards me.

It is a kind of love and respect from elders to juniors, from older people to younger people.

In short, this is a story of sibling affection!

But now, her feelings towards Yang Ning's teachings are more of concern and admiration!

The sibling relationship has soured!

"That's not my purpose!" Yang Ning was bewildered. His initial plan was simply to use Xue Xian as bait to lure out other members of the Tianyi Sect and confiscate the Purple Heart Stone.

After all, he really didn't know that Xue Xian had no way to contact anyone else and could only follow him!

Where is this contact information?

It was in A Li's pocket, and then it ended up in Yang Ning's hands.

Yang Ning didn't examine the Identity Jade Tokens closely; after all, there were so many of them, who would bother to look through them carefully?

He poured all his energy into the robot and sailed downstream into the sea!

This was the first unexpected event. The second unexpected event was that Xue Xian discovered his talent and then changed her attitude towards him from a tool to a younger brother.

Now, a third unexpected event has occurred: a disciple of the Myriad Saints Alliance has entered the scene. After a life-or-death escape and surgery in a cave, the sibling relationship has transformed into love.

So what should I do?

Xue Xian was still analyzing. "Xuantian Sect can't be stupid. Stupid people can't cultivate to such a high level. So, in his view, seizing the Purple Heart Stone is more important than his own life. What is his motive?"

"Why?" Yang Ning asked.

"Because he cracked the secret of the Purple Heart Stone!" Xue Xian raised her finger and said with absolute certainty.

What secrets does the Purple Heart Stone hold?

Even if he were a disciple of the Taiheng Sect, let alone now being a disciple of Harbin Institute of Technology of Technology, he shouldn't know such secrets of a major sect.

"The Purple Heart Stone is related to a supreme Supreme Dao Arts!" Xue Xian recounted Jiang Yun's history in detail, concluding, "Emperor Jiang Yun died in battle at Qilu Balo Mountain, and there is a Purple Heart Stone at the Qilu Balo Mountain. We didn't find the Supreme Dao Arts on Emperor Jiang Yun's body, nor in the imperial palace, and none of the Imperial Family descendants inherited it. So where is the inheritance? It must be in that Purple Heart Stone mine!"

"So that's how it is?" Yang Ning understood.

"This is an opportunity!" As if she had thought of something, Xue Xian's spirits lifted, and she looked at Yang Ning.

"What opportunity?" Yang Ning asked hurriedly.

"The chance to obtain Supreme Dao Arts!" Seeing Yang Ning's hesitant expression, Xue Xian said earnestly, "I know your ambition is to create Supreme Dao Arts, but creating Supreme Dao Arts and learning a Supreme Dao Arts are not contradictory!"

"Furthermore, since your target is that woman, you are destined to be an enemy of the Tianyi Sect. Before you create your Supreme Dao Arts, how will you fight against the Tianyi Sect?"

"You mean you're going to help me obtain this Supreme Dao Arts?" Yang Ning asked in shock. "But why? Aren't you a disciple of the Tianyi Sect, the Born Snow Master? The Supreme Dao Arts should be more important to you!"

"No!" Xue Xian shook her head. "My path is already set, the same path that Snow Jade Fairy once walked, to become the second Snow Jade Fairy. Even if I present her with a Supreme Dao Arts, the outcome will not change!"

"On the contrary, once we obtain the second Supreme Dao Arts, the strength of the Tianyi Sect will expand dramatically, and my importance will be less than it is now!"

This line of thinking is correct. The Tianyi Sect used to be ten thousand, and the Snow Jade Glazed Body was one, so she was one ten-thousandth of the Tianyi Sect.

But if the Tianyi Sect expands to 20,000, and the Snow Jade Glazed Body remains at 1, then she will become one in 20,000!

"But if the Tianyi Sect becomes stronger, won't the pie get bigger?" Yang Ning said, "As the one who makes the pie bigger, you will naturally get the biggest reward!"

This statement is the first of its kind in the world, but it's not hard to understand.

Xue Xian paused for a moment, then shook her head. "But have you ever thought about what I am?"

"Are you Xue Xian?"

Xue Xian blinked. "No, didn't you name me Su Xiao?"

"Didn't you dislike it?" Actually, Yang Ning just randomly came up with the Su Xiao Yang Ning, and the meaning was something he made up out of thin air, mainly to keep Xue Xian awake. He didn't expect her to remember it?

"How could I not like it!" Xue Xian shook her head, her bright eyes like autumn water, staring steadily at Yang Ning: "I like it very much, I've decided, from now on I'll be called this!"

Yang Ning fell silent immediately. What did this mean? Was this a veiled instruction?

Do you like the name more, or do you like me more?

While choosing a name is a very ordinary thing in the mortal world, it has a special meaning in the Cultivation World.

Once Xue Xian accepts the name he gives her, her fortune will flow towards Yang Ning.

Unless Yang Ning takes the initiative to sever the relationship between the two, just like Bodhi Patriarch and Sun Wukong did back then.

Li Daozhen, Xue Xian, also known as Li Suxiao, smiled brightly. She had already made up her mind, but now was not the time to say it.

After all, there was someone else living in his heart.

If I speak rashly now, I might scare him away. The best way is to silently support him, help him, make him dependent on me, and even until we've consummated our relationship. Only then will it be the right time to speak.

High emotional intelligence is essential to becoming a player!

Using this emotional intelligence for fishkeeping would be a heinous crime, but using it to seek true love would be equally successful!

Xue Xian, no!

Li Suxiao said earnestly, "Getting back to the point, I'm not just Li Suxiao, I'm also a woman!"

"Being a woman means there's a limit to how far I can go in the Tianyi Sect. What can I become? An elder, Supreme Elder? And then I'll reach the end!"

"Is development that important? As long as one can become an immortal and live forever, isn't that enough?" Yang Ning asked.

"It's not that simple!" Li Suxiao shook her head and said, "As a woman, a goddess of humble origins, the higher she stands, the greater her charm will be, and the more people will covet her! Right now, I'm just Outer Disciple, while inner disciples are pursuing me. But once I reach the Spiritual Law Realm, it will be Spiritual Law Realm experts who will be pursuing me!"

This isn't just her being narcissistic; the world is truly like this. If Lin Yuanxi weren't surnamed Lin, she would have been coveted by countless people long ago.

Once they've set their sights on someone, do you think they'll follow the proper procedures to pursue them?

No, they would directly order Lin Yuanxi to be transferred there dao companion.

Isn't that exactly what You Ruo is like?

"In this world, unless a woman stands up and dominates, women are destined to be appendages of men. I can refuse one or two, but one day there will be someone I cannot refuse!"

"At that time, I would never even become a legal wife; I would only be a tool for some people to vent their lust!"

"If that's the case, why don't I choose someone I like and then train them to be my protector?"

Yang Ning's opinion of Li Suxiao has completely changed.

At first, I knew her name was Xue Xian, and that she was an arrogant, domineering, and manipulative master.

Later I learned that her Li Daozhen, an ordinary person from a humble background who could only use various means to disguise herself while desperately climbing the social ladder.

Now, she is called Li Suxiao, and she has become a warrior who refuses to accept her fate and dares to fight!

So..

"Why did you choose me?" Yang Ning asked.

"You are focused, you are exceptionally talented, you are single-minded, and you are my savior!"

Most importantly, I like it!

"Isn't that enough?"

Yang Ning knew that some girls were very good at betting in their early years. Several internet giants were unremarkable in college, but then they were pursued by them.

I never imagined that something like this would happen to me.

"I understand!" Yang Ning nodded emphatically, but made no promises.

Li Suxiao actually preferred Bai Qi to this kind of person; after all, a man who constantly makes promises only seems frivolous.

That's what makes someone mature and composed!
