Chapter 17: Meet the Others
Chapter 17: Meet the Others
In truth, it was annoying for the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen to hear a man with no talent talk about reaching the top, but instead of trying himself, he asked them to help.
Unfortunately, they could not refuse this either, especially since both of them had promised to provide Ciel with resources and whatever he needed.
"Right!" Suddenly the Elf Queen took out something, a pill that was transparent in color, emitting a boundless pure aura that was able to turn the air fragrant.
"This is a Nature Spiritual Pill, only given to the best geniuses of the Elves. Overall, its function is to significantly improve cultivation. However, before you consume this pill, you'd better improve your cultivation foundation first." She explained.
Ciel was immediately interested in hearing that. He took the pill from the Elf Queen's hand before the latter even handed it to him.
While observing it closely, he asked, "then how do I improve my cultivation foundation?"
The Elf Queen looked at the Ice Goddess when she heard Ciel's question.
Ciel also looked at the silver-haired and cold-faced woman, waiting for her answer.
"The Pole of Hell can repair the foundation, but you will suffer," she said.
"Without protection, there's even a chance you might die."
"Well, that doesn't matter. I'm confident I can withstand any suffering." Ciel replied with a confident smile.
He had already heard of that place. It was located in the upper north of the Ice Continent, a place that was considered extremely chaotic and dangerous even for ice power users due to the many natural disasters there. It could even be said it was the northernmost side of the Realm of Life.
"Then when are we going there?"
"Tomorrow!"
"Why tomorrow? Why not now?" Ciel knitted his brows.
"I'm still in a bad mood, I don't want to accidentally drown you in the sea," the Ice Goddess replied.
Ciel's face froze for a moment, and he couldn't help but be angry.
However, after that he nodded his head.
"Good, Goddess, you are indeed an unruly woman, but remember that someday you will moan under my body," he said, which instantly made the Ice Goddess' face turn red.
Fortunately, the Elf Queen hurriedly calmed her down.
"Is there anything else you want?" She then asked Ciel.
The latter had many wishes, but he didn't think he could name them one by one without a process, so he responded by waving his hand.
"Wait until I think about it," he replied.
His eyes then stared at the palace door as he continued, "for now I want to take a walk first!"
He signaled to Mu Yixue, telling her to follow him.
However, just as he had just taken one step, he stopped and looked at the Ice Goddess and Elf Queen again.
"By the way, I suggest not to do that again or I will punish you two!"
He resumed his steps after saying that, leaving the two women with blushing faces.
Their breathing became rapid and there was anger in their eyes.
To them, this was like forbidding a husband and wife from having sex.
However, even if Ciel didn't say that, they might not dare to do it again in the near future for fear of it being recorded again.
Ciel who was followed by Mu Yixue quickly arrived at the palace grounds.
Surprisingly enough, there were so many people out there, many times more than before.
They were constantly whispering as if discussing something.
When they saw Ciel, their faces froze, even the snowmen showed expressions of astonishment.
They were probably wondering how to deal with this young man who had suddenly earned the title of Ice Prince and had a status equal to that of the Ice Goddess.
Ciel looked around before stopping at a group of beautiful women who were Ice Palace disciples.
"Call them here," Ciel said to Mu Yixue.
The latter was a bit hesitant so she asked, "You're not going to do anything to them, are you?"
Mu Yixue was worried that Ciel would use this opportunity to take revenge because some of them had beaten Ciel yesterday.
As the leader of the disciples, Mu Yixue naturally did not want anything bad to happen to them.
"Don't worry, I'm not that petty, as long as they obey me, carry out my orders, and don't resist my wishes, everything that happens can be forgiven," Ciel said with a faint smile but somehow made Mu Yixue's back tremble.
Ciel looked at her, and then hugged her waist from the side after seeing her reaction, making the few young men watching from outside the palace grounds almost fall over in stunned shock.
"No, how could that be," they said with their eyes wide open.
Mu Yixue was somewhat embarrassed, but she chose to endure it.
"Among all the Ice Palace disciples, there is no doubt that you are the most beautiful," Ciel said. "Ever since I was able to hug you, my standards have risen dramatically. I dare say that among those disciples, there are only a few that I find beautiful."
His words were more like a compliment to Mu Yixue as he clearly said that she was very beautiful, basically a man who could have her would become less interested in other women.
This made Mu Yixue embarrassed, but also impressed so the feeling of comfort with this man increased uncontrollably.
She took a deep breath before signaling the young ladies to come over.
They didn't try to discuss first. After getting the call from Mu Yixue, they walked straight towards her, but with their eyes more often on Ciel.
When they finally arrived in front of Ciel and Mu Yixue, they fell silent, seemingly unsure of how to react. Normally, they would greet Mu Yixue in a friendly manner, asking if she needed their help.
Mu Yixue knew that she had to give them an explanation.
"You must have heard. He is now the Ice Prince of the Ice Palace," she said.
"If you still consider yourselves to be Ice Palace disciples, pay your respects to him immediately. Don't let the Goddess drive you away."
That Mu Yixue said that made them freeze, but they immediately trembled when Mu Yixue warned them that the Goddess would expel them.
"Prince, greetings, please forgive our impoliteness," they said hurriedly, cupping their hands towards Ciel.
The latter smiled faintly as it was the young Hegemons who saluted him.
It might be very difficult for them if they wanted to become Demigods, but reaching the Eighth or Ninth Hegemon Stage was enough to live an honorable life.
"You..." Ciel pointed at one of them.
She was a young girl with a rather round face, the youngest of them all, probably only 15 or 16 years old.
Her skin was white as snow and she had long black hair that was slightly curly.
She wore a white shirt and a short blue skirt so that her legs could always be seen. They were long and charming.
The others seemed very polite to her, which meant she had a good status in the Ice Palace.
"Her name is Mei Mei, the First Elder's personal disciple," Mu Yixue whispered to Ciel.
Because yesterday Mei Mei also beat up Ciel, so she was a little worried when she was called by Ciel.
She looked left and right in doubt before pointing at herself.
"Me?" she asked.
