Chapter 308 The Path Each Chosen
Just as Shui Qingli finished speaking, worried that someone might cause trouble for Bing Lixue and Bai Guangying, Yan Jue and Le Yin arrived at just the right moment to visit.
Bing Lixue and Bai Guangying exchanged a glance, but Shui Qingli made the decision: "Let them in first. We need to make things clear."
"Very well." Bing Lixue waved her hand and opened the gate of the Ice Crystal Palace.
Yan Jue and Yue Yin entered the Ice Crystal Palace and saw Bing Lixue sitting on her throne, while Shui Qingli and Bai Guangying were sitting next to Bing Lixue on chairs that Shui Qingli had just conjured up.
"Yan Jue? Princess Le?" Bing Lixue looked down at the two fairies who had come to the Ice Crystal Palace, and said in a cold voice without any emotion, "They are indeed rare guests."
"May I ask what brings you two here?"
Shui Qingli seemed to have anticipated Yan Jue and Yue Yin's arrival. He remained silent, only looking at them with a half-smile.
"Water Prince..." When Yueyin saw Shui Qingli here, she knew that her previous plans were basically useless.
Originally, she and Yan Jue wanted to persuade Bing Lixue to join them, so that Shui Qingli might betray Mutiange and help the Fairy Realm. Moreover, Bai Guangying, who was close to Bing Lixue, would also become a great help.
However, judging from the current harmonious scene, it seems they'll end up with nothing.
However, before Yueyin could say anything, Yan Jue, who was somewhat agitated, stepped forward—
"Ah Bing, do you know that your brother is one of the Ten Dharma Aspects, even second only to the World King, ranking as a Second-Tier Deputy Dharma Aspect!" Yan Jue looked heartbroken and extremely worried: "His danger is far beyond your imagination, and even we have been kept in the dark..."
Upon hearing this, not only Shui Qingli and Bing Lixue, but even Bai Guangying looked at Yan Jue speechlessly—
Yan Jue, are you trying to tell a sister who's obsessed with her brother that her brother is terrifying?
Is this something a normal person would say?
"Ye Luoli Magic, Frosty Flakes, Like Snow Crystals, Ice Cone Technique!" Bing Lixue interrupted Yan Jue, annoyed, as she condensed several ice cones: "Of course I know my brother's identity!"
"But even if my brother is a Dharma Image, what does that prove? No matter what, he is still my brother!"
"Ah Bing!" Yan Jue didn't expect Bing Lixue to attack him directly. In his haste, he only had time to dodge the ice spikes by turning to the side.
"The music is enchanting!" Yueyin, who was standing nearby, used magic to shatter the ice spikes and then stood in front of Yan Jue, saying, "Yan Jue, don't be impulsive!"
“But I can’t let Bing and Shui Shui go astray together.” Yan Jue still looked like he was trying to persuade her.
“Yan Jue, I think you’ve misunderstood.” Shui Qingli looked at Yan Jue, who seemed to be imagining countless melodramatic scenarios, and bluntly revealed the truth: “It has never been my identity that determines my stance, but rather my stance that gives me this identity.”
"Whether it's joining the Lingxi Pavilion as your colleague or helping you fight against Mandora, everything I've done has always been for him, for the Forbidden Land, nothing more."
Yan Jue couldn't decipher the emotions in Shui Qingli's eyes, but before he could understand her words, he heard Bing Lixue say something exactly the same—
"Me too. No matter what my brother's stance is, I will always stand by his side."
"This is the belief I have always held."
As Bing Lixue spoke, she immediately unleashed two more ice spikes, so fast that even Yueyin didn't have time to react: "Ice Spike Technique!"
"Ah Bing..." The ice spike grazed Yan Jue's face, leaving only a shallow bloodstain.
Whether it was Bing Lixue's magic or Shui Qingli's words, Yan Jue, the entire fox, was stunned, staring at the brother and sister in disbelief: "Are you really going to... be so heartless?"
“Yan Jue, this is the path we each chose.” Bing Lixue didn’t know why Yan Jue was so obsessed with her, but she still said firmly, “I will never give up my brother, just as you will never give up your position as the master of ceremonies of Lingxi Pavilion.”
"No matter what your intentions are, we can only be enemies!"
Bing Lixue never gave Yan Jue any hope from beginning to end. As the ruler of ice and snow, she also disdained to toy with other people's feelings.
This day was bound to come eventually; it would have been better if it had never started.
"In that case, farewell." Knowing that the negotiations had broken down, Yueyin ignored Yan Jue's breakdown and left with him.
Perhaps, after this parting, they will become mortal enemies...
