Chapter 170: Ices Past

Chapter 170 - Ice's Past

Jiu Shen pacified the sobbing Ice by gently rubbing her head. Along the way, they met Xia Xinyue who was holding a cup filled with tea.

Xia Xinyue was startled when she saw Jiu Shen holding a crying little girl in his arms, and when she saw how beautiful the little thing was, she instantly had one question in her heart: Is she Lord Sect Master’s daughter?

"Lord Sect Master, I was just about to deliver this tea to you." Xia Xinyue said as she looked at Jiu Shen with an affectionate smile. Anyone who knew Xia Xinyue would certainly be dumbstruck if they saw her expression right now. After all, she was one of the coldest and most aloof elders of the Ice Cloud Sword Sect, but she was actually displaying such a tender womanly expression to a man.

Xia Xinyue hasn’t experienced love before, but she was a hundred percent sure that she wants to be together with the man in front of her. Even if he rejects her, she would still follow him.

Jiu Shen’s expression warmed up a bit when he saw how considerate Xia Xinyue was. "Xinyue, bring it to my room."

Xia Xinyue’s smile became wider when she heard how Jiu Shen addressed her. During their time in Green Wood City, he would only refer to her as ’Elder Xia’, but now, he was willing to call her by her first name. Although it was only a form of address, it still made her beyond elated since it can already be considered as a step forward to their relationship.

Jiu Shen walked towards his room while carrying Ice in his embrace. Following behind him was a happy Xia Xinyue who was holding a cup of tea.

Jiu Shen went straight to his bed and let the little lolita sit on his lap. Xia Xinyue sat beside him after putting the cup of tea to a nearby table.

"You’ve been quiet along the way, do you want to speak about what had happened to you before you came here in the Profound Dragon Continent?" Jiu Shen asked as he ruffled Ice’s white hair.

Ice pouted in dissatisfaction but she could not conceal the happy smile on her face after feeling Jiu Shen’s gentle touch. "Smelly human! I’m not a kid! I’m already a hundred years old!"

Xia Xinyue giggled as she looked at the adorable little girl in Jiu Shen’s lap.

Jiu Shen shrugged flicked Ice’s forehead. "Little tiger, I know that god beasts like you have long lifespans, so you can still be considered as a kid. Age-wise, your not even a millionth as old as I am." Jiu Shen said in a joking tone, but he was actually speaking the truth.

Ice puffed her cheeks as she brandished her claws in front of Jiu Shen, but she then realized that she was in her human form, so her actions looked cute and comical instead.

"Stinky human, you infuriate this cute cat!"

Looking at them bantering, Xia Xinyue giggled while covering her small mouth with her hands.

"Come on, just tell us about it. We will listen to your story." Jiu Shen smiled as he pinched the little girl’s cheeks.

Ow! Ow! Ow!

"You’re tearing my face apart! Meow! I’ll speak! I’ll tell it to you!" Ice pleaded while looking at Jiu Shen pitifully with her huge eyes.

Jiu Shen released her cheeks and waited for the lolita to speak. He had coincidentally found this god beast progeny injured near his store, and he immediately knew what her origin was the moment he saw her. Without hesitation, Jiu Shen brought her inside the store and treated her injuries. Starting then, the emaciated little white cat slowly increased in weight, but she still didn’t talk to him even after many days. It was only until recently that she started talking to him, but he still didn’t ask about her past.

Ice’s cheeky expression turned serious before it turned sad. Her lips quivered as she held back her tears from falling. "I’m a Glacial Sovereign Tiger, a god beast with an ancient bloodline. I lived peacefully in the Divine Beast Continent with my parents. Both of them are only normal savage beasts of the Tiger Clan, but they gave birth to me, a god beast with an ancient bloodline. They didn’t know why this happened and only treated it as a miracle, but they were also cautious, so they didn’t divulge my identity as a god beast to anyone. Everything was fine for a hundred years until an elder of the Lion Clan discovered my identity."

Ice’s voice paused since she could barely prevent her tears from spilling out. After a few seconds, she continued with a slightly trembling voice. "The Lion Clan is one of the strongest beast clans in the Divine Beast Continent since they have an old ancestor with a cultivation at the Origin God Realm. After that elder of the Lion Clan discovered my identity, the Lion Clan started to covet my bloodline. They wanted to capture me and consume my ancient bloodline to strengthen their own..."

Hearing this, Xia Xinyue and Jiu Shen felt surprised and angry at the same time.

"The Lion Clan waged war with our Tiger Clan, but our clan was powerless against them since the strongest expert of our Tiger Clan was only at the peak stage of the Nascent God Realm. Left with no choice, my parents decided to send me far away using a teleportation array formation, and they told me to never come back. I-I’m so...so useless even though I am a g-god beast progeny! I couldn’t even protect my parents and my clan... Now, I-I don’t know wha-what happened to them..."

Ice balled her tiny fists as glistening tears streamed down her face.

Jiu Shen cupped the little girl’s face with both his hands as he wiped away the tears on her cheeks with his two thumbs. "Little tiger, after finishing the matters here, I will bring you to the Divine Beast Continent to search for your parents and your Tiger Clan. Don’t worry. I will let those from the Lion Clan pay for their crimes." Jiu Shen’s cold voice drifted inside the room.
