Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1474

1471. Chapter 1471 Frost God Water

When Li Luo came out of his cultivation state, in the distant battle zone of the Holy Academy in Inner Shenzhou, the battle was already in full swing. Teams from the Holy Academy were constantly being eliminated, and the intensity of the battle was many times stronger than that in Outer Shenzhou.

But this is normal. Even Fang Xingyun, who is at the lower seventh level of the Marquis Realm, is able to overwhelm all the major holy academies in Outer Shenzhou. But if this strength is placed in the team of the holy academy in Inner Shenzhou, he cannot even make it into the top ten. You can imagine how big the gap is.

Li Luo glanced around and suddenly fixed his eyes on a light curtain, where he saw Lu Ruyan’s figure. At this moment, she was fighting fiercely with a seventh-rank marquis.

She was a middle-aged woman with sharp eyes. Li Luo still remembered that when he met Lu Qing’er before, she was guarding him.

Unexpectedly, she met Lu Ruyan.

Li Luo turned his head and looked at Lu Qing’er beside him. The latter had also been paying attention to the battle on the light screen. She obviously noticed Li Luo’s gaze, so she glanced at him nonchalantly and asked, “You seem to have recovered?”

She could keenly sense that the phase force fluctuations emanating from Li Luo’s body seemed to have suddenly become much stronger.

Li Luo smiled and nodded, and said, “Did your ‘Aunt Zhu’ run into Lu Ruyan?”

Lu Qing’er tapped her snow-white, pointed chin and said, “Their mission is to stop Lu Ruyan from getting more ‘Sky Mirror Sand’.”

“But she seems to be no match for Lu Ruyan.” Li Luo looked at the space where Lu Ruyan was struggling to cross. Lu Ruyan was clearly in an absolute advantage at this moment, completely suppressing “Aunt Zhu” whose strength had reached the seventh-grade marquis realm.

Judging from the situation, victory is just a matter of time.

Lu Qing’er said calmly: “Although Lu Ruyan is only at the upper sixth level of the Marquisate, she has built a ten-pillar golden platform, and the other five are all nine-pillar. This foundation is top-notch among her peers. Aunt Zhu can’t be her opponent.”

“One tower has ten pillars, five towers have nine pillars.”

Li Luo also had a solemn expression on his face. This foundation was many times stronger than that of Fang Xingyun, who was only a seventh-rank marquis. If Fang Xingyun fought with Lu Ruyan, he would probably be defeated in no more than ten rounds.

Even Li Luo had to admit that if he met Lu Ruyan now, even if he used all his tricks and trump cards, the probability of winning would not be high.

“Lv Ruyan is a favored daughter of heaven in the Lv lineage of Jinlong Mountain. She is less than ten years older than me, but her strength has now caught up with some of the older generation of strong men. Before I returned to Jinlong Mountain, many people thought that she would be the most suitable person for the ‘Ice Holy Seed’.” Lu Qing’er said faintly.

“So she has always been jealous of me, thinking that I came back and took away what belonged to her.”

Li Luo comforted her, “You should tell her that if you grew up in Jinlong Mountain, she would have nothing to do with it, so she should be grateful that you came back so late, so that she can enjoy so much glory that did not belong to her.”

Although there was still frost on Lu Qing’er’s beautiful face, she looked at him with some helplessness. This man always had so many crooked ideas.

“She already dislikes me now. If I continue to provoke her like this, with her personality, I’m afraid she will go crazy.”

Li Luo smiled and suddenly asked, “I heard that you came to the Sky Mirror Tower. What does she want to fight with you about?”

“Why are you asking so many questions? It has nothing to do with you. I can handle it myself.” Lu Qing’er said coldly.

Li Luo said: “As friends, isn’t it natural for us to help each other? Besides, you have helped me so much over the years, so it’s only natural for me to help you in return.”

“There’s no need for you to reciprocate.” Lu Qing’er said expressionlessly.

Li Luo could only sigh helplessly.

Lv Qing’er was silent for a while. Seeing that Li Luo was silent, she calmed down her emotions and put herself in that cold mood again. She opened her red lips slightly and spoke in a cold voice, like a stream flowing through a mountain stream in the morning, with a refreshing chill: “I am very compatible with the Frost Saint Seed, but Lv Ruyan is not bad either, so she has never given up. At the same time, there are people behind her who support her, and this is related to some struggles within the Lv Clan.”

“This time we came to the Tianjing Tower for the “Frost God Water”, which is an ancient holy water passed down from the Wuxiang Holy Sect. It has a great effect on improving the ice affinity. If Lv Ruyan obtains the “Frost God Water”, then her compatibility with the Ice Holy Seed will also be greatly improved. At that time, she will be infinitely close to me. With this opportunity, the faction behind her will be able to use this opportunity to compete with my father for the control of the Lv Vein.”

“Frost God Water?” Li Luo muttered, then patted his chest and said, “I will help you get it.”

Lu Qing’er said calmly: “If I obtain this item, I will be able to completely inherit the Holy Seed of Ice. Then, my heart will be completely frozen and all distracting thoughts will be frozen. But perhaps this result is also good.”

Li Luo’s smile froze and he said, “That’s not what I meant.”

Lu Qing’er said calmly: “It doesn’t matter. This result is inevitable sooner or later. After I went to Jinlong Mountain, I realized that whether I like it or not, I have been carrying a lot of things on my shoulders. The Holy Ice Seed is my opportunity, but also my shackles.”

Li Luo was silent for a moment, and said, “Is there no way to avoid that outcome?”

Lu Qing’er asked back: “Why should we avoid it? This may be easier for me, and it won’t cause you any more trouble or distress.”

Li Luo opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything. He knew that Lu Qing’er liked him. This feeling had already sprouted when they were in Nanfeng Academy, but he couldn’t respond.

So he could only reveal his relationship with Jiang Qing’e, and Lu Qing’er understood it, so she chose to go with the flow, relying on the Holy Ice Seed to freeze her heart and ruthlessly cut off her own emotions, allowing the relationship between the two to return to that of ordinary friends.

This result may be the best for them.

But…

In that case, the once smart and cunning girl would have completely turned into eternal ice, and the once bright smile would never appear on her cheeks again.

And all this is because of him.

So at this moment, Li Luo suddenly felt that he was really a bastard who was causing harm to others.

As if she had noticed Li Luo’s sudden depression, even though Lu Qing’er was filled with frost at this moment, a trace of pity still appeared in her eyes, and she said softly: “Li Luo, this has nothing to do with you. You have done nothing wrong. It’s just that I was young and ignorant. Moreover, whether you are here or not, I will inherit the Holy Ice Seed. I knew this when I returned to Jinlong Mountain.”

“So, it’s actually a happy thing that I have these memories before inheriting the Holy Ice Seed. Otherwise, it would be too sad that I haven’t even experienced what it’s like to like someone before Bing Xin became so ruthless.” A subtle smile appeared on her frosty cheeks at this moment.

Li Luo was speechless. Although she was smiling, her words were so heavy that they made people feel suffocated.

Both sides fell silent.

Time slips away quietly.

Suddenly, a loud bell sound was heard from the battle zone of Shenzhou Holy Academy in the distance, which meant that the battle for crossing was over.

Li Luo looked at the light monument. On it, the Shengai Academy team led by Lu Ruyan directly won the first place among the Holy Academy in Inner Shenzhou, and the top ten on the light monument were all led by seventh-grade marquisate powerhouses.

Lu Ruyan was in high spirits. Her sharp gaze shot from afar towards Lu Qing’er.

Lu Qing’er, who was in a very bad mood, also responded with the same cold look.

The two women’s eyes met, and it seemed as if even the air had turned cold.

In the end, Lu Ruyan curled her rosy lips in disdain and turned away with the crowd.
