Elsewhere, under Qian Renxue's guidance, Xue Tianmo, the Ice Empress, and Zhu Zhuqing moved into the Crown Prince's Mansion.

The residence was magnificent and imposing, exuding the air of royalty.

The quarters Qian Renxue arranged for Xue Tianmo and the others were exceptionally luxurious.

The interior was lavishly decorated, with dazzling chandeliers, radiant murals, and exquisite carvings that were simply breathtaking.

The gem-like carpets complemented the surrounding decorations, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

Later that night, the Ice Empress came to see Xue Tianmo.

"Aunt Bing, why are you still awake this late?"

Seeing the Ice Empress, Xue Tianmo asked curiously.

The Ice Empress smiled faintly and teased, "I just came to see whether you brat might sneak into someone else's room tonight!"

"Huh?"

Xue Tianmo was taken aback and left speechless by her remark.

Naturally, he knew that the "someone else" she meant was Zhu Zhuqing.

After spending this period of time together, the Ice Empress had noticed it too.

Zhu Zhuqing had feelings for Xue Tianmo.

Seeing that Xue Tianmo remained silent, the Ice Empress continued, "Oh, right, Tianmo. Why do I feel that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe has a familiar aura about him?"

"But I can't remember where I've seen it before."

The Ice Empress frowned slightly, looking deeply thoughtful.

"Hm?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Tianmo furrowed his brow, a flash of surprise swiftly passing through his eyes.

After all, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was merely an identity Qian Renxue had assumed through a soul bone's soul skill.

Previously, when he had secretly met with Qian Renxue, they had encountered Tang Hao's assassination attempt.

Fortunately, the Ice Empress had arrived in time and driven Tang Hao away.

At that time, the Ice Empress had seen Qian Renxue, yet she had not asked any questions. She had even taken Shui Bing'er and the others away, leaving the two of them some privacy.

As expected of Aunt Bing!

Qian Renxue disguised herself so well, yet she still revealed a flaw in front of her.

After thinking this over, Xue Tianmo was about to reveal Qian Renxue's true identity.

After all, he held absolutely no guard against the Ice Empress.

But before Xue Tianmo could speak, the Ice Empress said again, "Tianmo, I have some good news to tell you!"

"Oh?"

Xue Tianmo gave a surprised cry and hurriedly asked, "What good news?"

The Ice Empress did not keep him in suspense and replied directly, "My sister wrote to me a few days ago. She's coming to find us!"

"Really? That's wonderful!"

Xue Tianmo was overjoyed upon hearing that.

He had been away from the Extreme North Lands for several years now, and naturally missed the Snow Empress.

Although he had transmigrated into this world, he had arrived in the body of an infant.

If the Snow Empress had not found him and raised him back then, he likely would have frozen to death long ago.

The Ice Empress smiled. "Judging by the time, she should arrive within the next few days. My sister will definitely be happy when she sees what you've accomplished!"

Her face brimmed with excitement as she spoke.

Though she and the Snow Empress often exchanged letters, they had not met in several years. Naturally, she was looking forward to it.

After that, the Ice Empress and Xue Tianmo chatted briefly for a while longer.

"Tianmo, it's getting late. You should rest early too! I'm sleepy myself, so I'll head back to my room first!"

With that, the Ice Empress rose and left.

Just as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, glanced back at Xue Tianmo, and added, "You brat, behave yourself. Don't go running into other girls' rooms!"

Xue Tianmo wore a bitter, helpless expression as he nodded. "All right, Ice Empress. I understand."

Only then did the Ice Empress leave at ease.

After the Ice Empress departed, Xue Tianmo yawned and prepared to go to bed.

But just then, someone knocked on his door.

Knock, knock!

Qian Renxue's voice followed from outside. "Tianmo, you're not asleep yet, are you?"

Why is she here?

Xue Tianmo was surprised. He got up and opened the door.

When he looked closely, he saw that Qian Renxue standing outside was not disguised as Xue Qinghe.

Instead, she had returned to her original female appearance.

Moreover, it was clear that Qian Renxue had carefully dressed herself up before coming.

Her entire bearing exuded elegance. Her waterfall-like golden hair was as soft and smooth as silk, drifting gently in the breeze.

Beneath her slender brows rested a pair of eyes filled with wisdom and tenderness.

Her straight nose and cherry-red lips outlined an air of grace and composure.

Her figure was voluptuous and striking. Just one glance was enough to make Xue Tianmo feel his blood surge.

"Hm?"

Seeing Xue Tianmo staring at her without blinking, Qian Renxue was slightly surprised. "Why are you staring at me like that? Aren't you going to invite me inside for a seat?"

Hearing that, Xue Tianmo quickly came back to himself and stepped aside.

"Please, come in!"

Qian Renxue smiled faintly, pursed her red lips, and entered Xue Tianmo's room with light, graceful steps.

"It's so late. Why did you come to see me? And dressed so beautifully too. Did you come to meet your lover?"

Xue Tianmo suddenly said.

"Oh?"

Qian Renxue was slightly surprised. Then, with affection in her eyes, she looked toward Xue Tianmo. "Are you teasing me?"

As she spoke, Qian Renxue took a quick step forward and grabbed one of Xue Tianmo's hands. Turning her body, she fell directly into his embrace.

The sudden development caught Xue Tianmo somewhat off guard. He then held Qian Renxue and sat down.

Once seated, Qian Renxue's long, snow-white legs draped directly over Xue Tianmo, while the curves at her chest pressed close before his eyes.

The sight left Xue Tianmo's mind somewhat dazed.

Qian Renxue was simply too enticing at that moment, making his heartbeat quicken.

Then, Qian Renxue took out the Sacred Light Pendant from her chest and began playing with it.

"You gave me this pendant before. I really like it."

"Tianmo, do you think this counts as a token of love?"

Xue Tianmo was stunned for a moment before replying hesitantly, "It... should count, I suppose!"

The instant those words left his mouth, Qian Renxue suddenly gazed intently at him.

In the next moment, she actually took the initiative and kissed him.

Xue Tianmo had originally thought Qian Renxue would spend a passionate night with him.

Yet after teasing him for a while, she simply got up and left.

Before leaving, she even cast him a coquettish glance and said, "The easier something is to get, the less you cherish it! Hmph! Men!"

Xue Tianmo stood there blankly. He had not expected Qian Renxue to throw his emotions into disarray and set his entire body ablaze with desire.

What a seductive little vixen!

Xue Tianmo sighed inwardly. In that situation just now, he had nearly been unable to stop himself from carrying Qian Renxue to bed, yet she had unexpectedly left.

Very quickly, he calmed himself down.

When Qian Renxue had arrived earlier, the system had prompted him that he could sign in.

Xue Tianmo chose to sign in and received ten thousand Sign-in Points, along with an Immortal Herb with a light attribute.

That was not a bad haul, considering Qian Renxue had come to him of her own accord.

"I should find some time to visit Dugu Yan!"

After pondering for a moment, Xue Tianmo muttered to himself.

He had already made up his mind long ago to seize Tang San's opportunity at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
