Into the Forbidden Rear Mountain with My Mother-in-Law! The Earth Dragon Sect's Cold Spring Secret Realm

"Qiuqiu, take your fellow disciples and move these supplies back into storage!"

"Feng, come with me!"

After sending Du Busi's people off.

Sect Master Nan Shuishui's expression turned serious.

Originally, she had regarded Luo Feng as no more than a promising disciple.

But after Du Busi's visit.

Nan Shuishui knew it was time to take things further.

She had to make this boy the very heart of the family's inner circle.

Otherwise, once this young man's wings grew strong.

Her daughter alone would never be enough to keep him tethered!

"Um, honored mother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Seeing the solemn expression on the beautiful woman before him.

Luo Feng seemed to sense something.

Beauties were not the Earth Dragon Sect's only specialty.

Beneath their grounds lay an Ice Cave.

It held ten-thousand-year cold marrow.

And special ice-attribute metals.

It was simply too cold down there.

And there was a terrifying guardian beast.

In the original story, Huo Yuhao had gone inside with several Ice-Attribute Soul Beasts under his command and dealt with it.

Now, his mother-in-law clearly wanted to bind Luo Feng to them with tangible benefits.

To give him a sense of belonging to the Earth Dragon Sect!

"I'm taking you to our sect's Secret Realm!"

"Only successive sect masters have been allowed to enter this place!"

Just as I thought!

For his mother-in-law to make such a decision, she must have decided to lay her cards on the table.

"Um, wouldn't it be inappropriate for someone of my current standing to enter?"

"Boy, don't pocket a bargain and then play coy!"

"Qiuqiu is my most precious daughter, and this mineral vein is the foundation of the Earth Dragon Sect."

"Don't tell me you don't understand what I mean!"

All right, then!

She had spelled it out so clearly.

It would be wrong for Luo Feng to refuse again.

"I understand. I won't let my senior sister down, and I'll protect the sect too!"

With his mother-in-law being so direct.

What else could Luo Feng say?

All he could do was offer assurances and thump his chest in pledge.

"From now on, half the ore you obtain inside will go to the sect, and you can keep the other half in your private stores!"

Not bad!

Those terms were truly generous.

It seemed his mother-in-law intended not only to entrust her daughter to Luo Feng, but to stake the entire sect on him as well.

Just as the two arrived at that unusual spring, one behind the other.

A flash of light appeared behind them.

Clearly.

Nan Qiuqiu had quietly followed them too.

"Mother, why are you treating this boy so well? That's our Dragon Gate's lifeblood..."

Seeing her daughter's aggrieved expression.

Nan Shuishui shook her head helplessly.

"Qiuqiu, since you're here!"

"Go inside with him. Be careful!"

At that moment, Nan Qiuqiu probably still did not realize her mother was doing this for her sake!

Because a mere Soul Douluo.

Could never protect this treasure trove.

Once the Sun Moon Empire across the border attacked.

This mineral vein could very well become the Earth Dragon Sect's greatest weakness.

As the saying went, the gentleman was innocent, but the jade he carried made him guilty.

Du Busi, who had visited earlier, naturally knew this mineral vein existed too.

But since they belonged to the same camp and the same empire, the Body Sect would not make trouble for them.

Yet the skies over the world could change at any moment.

Only by entrusting the sect's future to a capable younger generation could they ensure the Earth Dragon Sect endured forever.

"Fine. As his eldest senior sister, I'll keep an eye on this boy so he doesn't squirrel anything away!"

Without realizing it.

Nan Qiuqiu might not even have noticed herself.

Luo Feng had gone from that little junior brother to someone whose name was constantly on her lips.

"Rest assured, Sect Master!"

"Once we're inside, I'll protect my senior sister!"

"You're so annoying! Who needs your protection?"

Though she voiced her reluctance.

When the two reached the entrance.

Luo Feng instinctively took his little wife's hand.

Nan Qiuqiu did not pull away.

Instead, she leaned closer of her own accord.

"Don't get any funny ideas, you scoundrel. I'm just a little cold!"

"Understood, my senior sister!"

"You're here to supervise your husband and make sure I don't take so much as a needle or thread from the sect!"

"Hmph, glad you know!"

Soon, their figures disappeared from Nan Shuishui's sight.

Seeing that these two youngsters were getting along quite well.

Nan Shuishui breathed a sigh of relief too.

"This is ice extreme divine crystal!"

Soon after entering the Ice Cave, the two made a discovery.

It was a metal that was very soft, yet could become extremely hard!

In the original story, many of the Tang Sect's super Soul Tools used this stuff as their base material.

"Wow!"

"This is the metal Mom told me about!"

"It's worth a fortune outside!"

Like most pretty girls.

At the sight of those glittering crystals.

Nan Qiuqiu's eyes shone, and she instantly turned into a little money grubber!

But just as the little beauty reached out to touch one piece of metal.

Something unbelievable happened.

It was a frozen core about the size of a basketball.

It suddenly appeared in midair.

Crack, crack, crack!

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Almost in the flash of lightning and the strike of flint.

Chunks of ice and crystals surged toward the core from every direction.

Thud, thud, thud!

To use a rather inappropriate comparison.

It was like a combiner from Transformers.

Those differently shaped chunks of ice assembled into the enormous silhouette of a beast.

"What is that?"

"The Critical Giant Spirit!"

Seeing this savage-looking ice construct.

Luo Feng reflexively shielded his little wife behind him.

At the same time, he activated his four black Soul Rings once again.

Meanwhile.

"Roar!"

The terrifying monster lunged at them, claws flailing.

The intimidation radiating from its very bones.

Frightened Nan Qiuqiu so badly that she could not summon the slightest will to resist.

With a cry of "Ah!" she buried her head in her man's embrace!

But the pain she had imagined never came.

Instead, Luo Feng's confident voice rang in her ears!

"Watch my third Soul Skill, Azure Jade Domain: Heavenly Curtain Ceasefire!"

Buzz!

This was a special Soul Skill of the Jade Dragon clan.

It could defend by warping space.

It could also devour a portion of the opponent's power, diverting their attacks off course.

It was very similar to the refraction of light!

This was not brute force in the purest sense.

Rather, it involved the concept of a curvature discontinuity.

Only the Jade Dragon King, who commanded space and time, could wield this ability skillfully!

"Awroo?"

The next moment, the great monster was puzzled too!

That slap should have been enough to crush these two humans to death.

Yet every time it nearly reached their heads, it struck the air beside them instead.

What the hell?

Were its limbs refusing to obey?

Hearing the monster roar nearby and feeling her boyfriend's warm embrace.

Nan Qiuqiu finally lifted her head cautiously.

Just in time to witness her boyfriend's dashing block!

"What's wrong?"

"My most valiant senior sister, aren't you going to thank me with a kiss?"

"You... you scoundrel!"

"You're still fooling around in the middle of a fight!"

"Ah, watch your back! It's coming again!"

Although Luo Feng's source power far surpassed this monster's.

He was still only level 45.

Left with no choice, he had to unleash his ultimate move.

"Don't be afraid, darling!"

"It's all right. Let me show you a magic trick!"

Smiling, Luo Feng held Nan Qiuqiu's slender waist with one arm and freed his other hand to snap his fingers in the air.

Snap!

As that sound rang out.

The entire world froze once again.

Apart from Luo Feng, no one could move!

"Whew!"

"This time, I can stop it for forty-five seconds!"

"It's time for my counterattack!"
