Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

Under the leadership of Hei Duo, Bai Qiyang came directly to the outside of Hanxing Kingdom's capital, Hanyu City.

"Are you here? Why don't you leave?" Hei Duo stopped and Bai Qiyang asked anxiously.

"Meng Jiao didn't go to the city, and there's no trace of her in the village. I'll look for her." Hei Duo said with a humble and fearful look.

"Meng Jiao? Meng Jiao? Why does this name sound familiar?" Bai Qiyang murmured.

I seem to have heard the name Meng Jiao somewhere, but I can't remember where exactly.

"Meng Jiao? Isn't that Meng Jiao, the God of the Underworld Water who was engaged to your brother seven thousand years ago?" Taibu Xingjun said loudly as if he had suddenly realized something.

"What did you say, old lady? Meng Jiao is my brother's fiancée?" Bai Qiyang was also shocked by what Taibu Xingjun said.

"Master Xiaobai, the snow demon you are chasing is Meng Jiao, right? Is there another snow demon in the world more powerful than that vicious woman Meng Jiao?" Hei Duo asked Bai Qiyang with a look of delight.

"No wonder, she dared to call my brother a reckless man and a watchdog of heaven." Bai Qiyang also looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

"She took a shortcut. Please follow me." Hei Duo said and walked towards a remote path outside Hanyu City.

This is a very narrow path surrounded by ice and trees.

Hei Duo led the way in front, Bai Qiyang and Taibu Xingjun followed behind, and the three of them ran all the way in a hurry.

If there is snow blocking the road, Heiduo will spit out flames to melt the snow.

Taibu Xingjun actually began to feel that the spirit pet his disciple had found for his sweetheart was simply too good to be true.

At this time, Cong Li had been taken by the snow demon Meng Jiao to her territory - the Ice Edge Purgatory, which was formerly the Ice Palace.

After passing through a large ice cave and ice ridges from the Far North Sea and going around dozens of bends, they finally reached the Snow Demon's territory. The ropes on Cong Li's body were untied, leaving only his hands.

But the severe cold here was just as she described. Cong Li was shivering from the cold, her lips turned purple, and she trembled when she spoke.

Fortunately, Meng Jiao had no intention of letting Cong Li die, so he placed a silver-white warm jade bed in the ice cave where Cong Li was imprisoned.

Cong Li was afraid of the cold, so he curled up on the bed and refused to move.

"Xiao Yu'er, just stay here good! I want to let that idiot Bai Qiyang feel the consequences of losing the one you love." Meng Jiao said without thinking.

"You are wrong. I am just the disciple of Immortal Lord Xiaobai, not his beloved." After hearing what Meng Jiao said, Cong Li hurriedly explained.

"I don't care. I see Bai Qiyang is in a state where he is worse off than death. Let him know the consequences of ruining my marriage." Meng Jiao yelled at Cong Li.

"You are wrong again. Even if I die, Immortal Master Xiaobai has only lost a disciple. How can it be worse than death?" Cong Li continued to enlighten Meng Jiao, and at the same time enlightened himself.

He has been captured for a long time, but the master, the God King, has not come yet. Doesn't this mean that he, the disciple, is not important at all?

Thinking of this, Cong Li felt quite disappointed. Immortal Xiaobai didn't come to save him, and Helan didn't come either. Did they really not worry about his safety?

Who is Cong Li? The one who is best at comforting himself. He immediately figured it out. Maybe they haven't noticed that he is missing yet. Maybe they have already noticed that he is missing, but they are on their way to save him.

The fact was just as he expected. Bai Qiyang and Taibu Xingjun came to the Far North Sea under the leadership of Heiduo.

"The breath of snow demons is everywhere here. In addition to Meng Jiao, there are more and more breaths of water creatures. It depends on you from now on." Hei Duo stopped and looked at Bai Qiyang and said.

"What?" Bai Qiyang had a big question mark on his face. It was all white here, with nothing but sea water and icebergs floating on the sea. Where should he start looking?

"How about you go up and take a look?" Taibu Xingjun reminded.

Bai Qiyang had no choice but to fly up to the sky and look down. Unfortunately, all he could see was the vast sea and glaciers. Trying to find someone here was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

A wave of panic came over him. Bai Qiyang didn't want his first apprentice to end up in such a miserable way.

"Calm down, I need to stay calm. It seems that I can only use the most common method." Bai Qiyang said, and began to search along the glaciers one by one. I believe I will find it eventually.

Upon seeing this, Taibu Xingjun also dispersed to the side to help him search.

Seeing this, Hei Duo followed Taibu Xingjun and sniffed around, hoping to help them.

At this time, Yu Xiaobai and Helan Ruofeng had already arrived at Hanyu City. Unfortunately, they didn't have Hei Duo to lead the way, so they could only enter the city first and then make plans.

Hanyu City was built to be as novel and beautiful as a fairy tale kingdom.

Even though he was worried about Cong Li, Helan Ruofeng was still happy to see him, not to mention the heartless Yu Xiaobai.

The city is filled with castle-like buildings of all sizes, as well as magnificent ice sculptures, and lights of various colors, making the huge Hanyu City even more mysterious.

The pedestrians on the road were wearing thick mink coats and walking clumsily. They wore very heavy hats made of the same material as their coats, and their mouths were sealed tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"Excuse me……"

Yu Xiaobai wanted to stop passers-by and ask them questions, but everyone was in a hurry and had no time to pay attention to them.

"Xiao Yu, how about we find a restaurant to eat first and ask the waiter?" Helan Ruofeng was really hungry. He hadn't had a drop of water for the whole day.

"This is the only way now. The people here are too indifferent." Yu Xiaobai complained angrily after failing to strike up a conversation with several people in succession.

"Let's go. That light looks quite warm." Helan Ruofeng stretched out his hand and pulled her into an inn.

The waiter here nodded politely when he saw them, and then came over to entertain them.

"What would you two guests like to eat? Do you need to stay here?" the waiter greeted politely.

"First, give us something to eat and something hot to drink." Yu Xiaobai said as soon as he sat down.

"A little more!" Helan Ruofeng added another instruction and looked at Yu Xiaobai with a smile on his face.

Yu Xiaobai felt uncomfortable being stared at by him and could only look around to divert his attention.

"Xiao Yu, was Mei Yu given to you by the high priest? Have you heard of its origin?" Helan Ruofeng suddenly asked.

"You've been smiling at me, is that why you want to ask me this?" Yu Xiaobai was stunned, wondering what he wanted to do, but it turned out to be this.

"Of course, what else do you think I want to ask you?" Helan Ruofeng continued with a smile.

"Ruofeng, could you please speak more seriously in the future? Don't smile all the time." Yu Xiaobai said seriously.

"I'm just being polite. Besides, I feel happy when I see Xiaoyu, so of course I have to smile." Helan Ruofeng explained gently.

"How about, can we make an agreement?" Yu Xiaobai said.

"What agreement? Tell me first." Helan Ruofeng also sat upright and asked.

"What about you in the future? You can laugh, but can you please not laugh like that at others?" Yu Xiaobai said seriously.

She thought Helan Ruofeng was very good-looking, and looked even better when he smiled, with curved eyebrows and a gentle temperament. If he was seduced by some crazy girls, where would she be able to find such a smile again in the future?

"So, Xiaoyu, are you jealous? You can't stand seeing me smile at other women?" Helan Ruofeng asked Yu Xiaobai intently.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How dare you flirt with me? Aren't you afraid that your Miss Zi Yan will never talk to you again?" Yu Xiaobai said coquettishly. Perhaps she herself did not even notice the strong vinegar in her words.

"Sir, everything you ordered is here." The waiter stared at the two men as they worked.

"Waiter, I want to ask you something!" Yu Xiaobai saw that it was the waiter who came, grabbed his sleeve and asked.

"Sir, please let go of my hand first and ask." The waiter said with a smile.

Yu Xiaobai let go of his hand awkwardly, then asked, "Where is the coldest place in your far north? Have you ever heard of the snow demon? Does anyone know where her lair is?"

"What?" After hearing her words, the waiter collapsed to the ground with a look of horror on his face.

"I just asked you where the snow demon's lair is? Why does it look like it wants to eat you?" Yu Xiaobai was left laughing and crying by the waiter's behavior.

Helan Ruofeng quickly stood up and helped the waiter up, saying apologetically, "Brother, I'm sorry, Miss Xiaoyu's words were a little abrupt, please don't take it seriously, she didn't mean any harm."

The waiter stood up and took a breath before slowly saying, "Sir, the coldest place in the Far North is the palace of the Snow Demon. Legend has it that it is called the Ice Prism Purgatory, and no one knows its exact location."

"Ice Purgatory? How cold is it?" Yu Xiaobai asked again.

"Sir, how can I know? No one has ever been there. If anyone has been there, he or she is probably dead. Sir, you'd better not ask any more questions. I'm afraid of having nightmares at night!" said the waiter, and ran away in a hurry.

"Ruofeng, do you think the Snow Demon will take Congli there?" Seeing the waiter leave, Yu Xiaobai turned to ask Helan Ruofeng.

"It's almost certain! Since no one has been to her lair, she must think it's very safe there. He will definitely take Cong Li back if he captures her. Now all we have to do is follow the direction and find the Ice Purgatory, and we can rescue Cong Li." Helan Ruofeng analyzed carefully.

"However, the most important thing for us now is to know how to get out of this Ice Purgatory." Yu Xiaobai said helplessly.

"You should eat first. Eat until you are full. Only when you are full will you have the energy to look for it. I have to order another portion and put it in my Qiankun bag." Yu Xiaobai said and got up to find the waiter.

Helan Ruofeng didn't say anything. He sat quietly and started eating and drinking hot soup.

Yu Xiaobai walked around in the castle-like store. Perhaps because it was too cold, there were not many customers in the store and it looked very deserted.

"Brother Waiter, if you have nothing to do, please talk to me." Yu Xiaobai acted like a gangster and went forward to chat with the waiter.

"Sir, what else do you want to know? I have told you everything I know, seriously." The waiter looked at Yu Xiaobai as if he was looking at the plague god.

"No, you haven't told me how to get to the coldest place yet. How can I tell you everything?" Yu Xiaobai said, taking out his purse and taking out a gold ingot and putting it on the counter.

"Sir, I really don't know. If I knew, I would tell you everything I know for the sake of the gold ingots." This time the waiter said in a very serious tone.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Yu Xiaobai reached out and patted Jin Yuanbao and said, "Help me prepare some dried meat and naan that are easy to store. I want to pack them up and take them away."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." Seeing that he was no longer pestering him, the waiter smiled and took the ingots to prepare.

Yu Xiaobai sat back at the dining table bored.

"What? Did you find out?" Helan Ruofeng looked up and asked.

"Maybe he really doesn't know. I took out all the gold ingots, but it's useless." Yu Xiaobai said frustratedly.

"In that case, let's eat first. After we're full, we can go ask somewhere else. There will always be a way." Helan Ruofeng comforted him.

"This is the only way." Yun Xiaobai grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, muttering.

"Cough cough cough..."

Just then, the old man at the table behind them started coughing madly.

The coughing couldn't be stopped. Yu Xiaobai couldn't stand it anymore and was about to stand up. Helan Ruofeng on the opposite side quickly stood up and patted the old man on the back, asking him if he felt better.

"Are you feeling better, old man?" The old man calmed down a little after being comforted by Helan Ruofeng, breathing heavily.

"Well...well, it's better." The old man raised one hand and said while breathing heavily.

"Old man, please drink some water to calm down first." Yu Xiaobai quickly handed him a cup of hot water.

The old man took the cup, took a sip, put the cup down, and looked at the two of them carefully.

"Why do you want to explore the coldest place in the Far North?" the old man suddenly asked slowly.

"Old man, do you know where it is?"

"Have you heard the place we talked about?"

Helan Ruofeng and Yu Xiaobai asked anxiously at the same time.

"Tell me first why you want to know?" the old man asked stubbornly.

"To be honest with you old man, my friend was captured by the snow demon. We suspect that she must have taken my friend to her lair." Helan Ruofeng explained the reason to the old man.

"So that's how it is..." The old man exhaled heavily and said slowly.

"Old man, I have told you the reason. Can you tell me how to get to the coldest place in the Far North?" Helan Ruofeng pleaded sincerely.

The old man looked at them carefully and asked solemnly, "Are you two going to rescue your friend?"

"That's right, we have to go and rescue our friends." Helan Ruofeng replied.

"The palace where the snow demon lives is called the Ice Palace. Maybe the snow demon thought the name was not domineering enough, so he later changed it to Ice Edge Purgatory." The old man said slowly.

"Actually, this snow demon is not as evil as the legend says. In Hanyu City, no one has ever seen the true face of the snow demon. She will not easily appear in front of humans, and she has never done anything to harm humans." The old man said, looking seriously at Helan Ruofeng and Yu Xiaobai.

"Why is the waiter so afraid of him? When we asked the Snow Demon, he looked like he had seen a ghost?" Yu Xiaobai asked puzzled.

"The rumor that the snow demon harms people is nothing more than a rumor spread by everyone. In this huge country of Hanxing, how many people have died at the hands of the snow demon?" The old man said with a disdainful sneer.

"But, he really caught our friend." Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but say.

"You must have offended her," the old man said with certainty.

"Hey! Why do you talk like that, old man? Cong Li is the kindest mermaid I have ever seen. He did not offend the snow demon." Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but yelled when he saw the old man talking like that.
