Chapter 1427: Chapter 1427: Could He Be a...

Ye You glanced at the Snow Demon Leader lightly and asked, "You brought

into the Holy Land of the Snow Demon Tribe like this, aren’t you afraid I’ll steal the Heavenly Ice Crystal?"

The Snow Demon Leader smiled slightly and said, "If the Sage Ruler truly intends to steal it, you may certainly give it a try."

Ye You had no such intention, but the Snow Demon Leader’s words sowhat stirred his competitive spirit, making him want to give it a try.

However, when he looked down at Qin Sisi, he saw her shaking her head at him.

Ye You’s expression showed so hesitation, as Qin Sisi, fearing he might be provoked by the Snow Demon Leader, finally spoke up instead of staying silent, "Don’t go. The treasures of the ancient gods are extrely difficult to handle. Even if you manage to seize it in the end, it will certainly take a long ti, and you might miss our appointnt with the Ice Snow Fairy, which is not worth it."

Qin Sisi’s words cleared Ye You’s mind, and he decisively took a step back, indicating that he would not attempt to forcibly seize the Heavenly Ice Jade.

He had never intended to do so, but was only interested in the treasures left by the ancient gods, curious to see how powerful the spiritual power contained within could be.

Reflecting now, if he recklessly took action, he would not only miss the appointnt with the Ice Snow Fairy and the chance to obtain the Life Divine Water, but also cause the Snow Demon Tribe, which had just barely submitted to him, to beco wary.

Since the Heavenly Ice Jade is the sacred relic of the Snow Demon Tribe, why should he ddle with it?

His current Ice Magic, although not particularly strong, is sufficient to survive well in the Extre North Ice Field. Moreover, the Snow Demon Leader had already agreed to give him a Heavenly Ice Crystal.

Seeing Ye You ultimately choose to distance himself from the Heavenly Ice Jade after so hesitation, the Snow Demon Leader felt sowhat excited and took the initiative to explain, "Sage Ruler Yeyou, the Heavenly Ice Jade cannot be stolen. The ice spirit power contained within is too powerful, and whoever touches it lightly will instantly beco an ice figure, with all their magic power absorbed by the Heavenly Ice Jade."

"Then why did you earlier urge

to take it?" Ye You’s eyes turned cold.

The Snow Demon Leader calmly said, "I was rely testing the Sage Ruler’s character. If the Sage Ruler were greedy, he would go for the Heavenly Ice Jade, resulting only in failure; if he could resist the temptation and not take what isn’t his, then he would naturally remain safe."

Ye You gave him a cold glance, but internally he understood his actions. As the leader of the Snow Demon Tribe, he bears heavy responsibilities and must find a reliable protector for his tribe.

He indeed contributed a thousand torches for the Snow Demon Tribe, but if he ca for the Heavenly Ice Jade, no amount of torches would make the Snow Demon Tribe recognize him as their master.

"Since my performance satisfied the chief, may I be gifted the Heavenly Ice Crystal?" Obtaining a Heavenly Ice Crystal would indeed be a great fortune.

"Of course, this is my promise to you." The Snow Demon Leader’s tone was very firm.

He unleashed the power of Ice Attribute Magic, swirling around the Heavenly Ice Jade, causing the fully ford Heavenly Ice Crystal at the top to tremble slightly.

Under the Snow Demon Leader’s efforts, the Heavenly Ice Crystal gradually separated from the Heavenly Ice Jade, wrapped in Ice Magic, and was delivered to Ye You.

Ye You opened his palm, and the Heavenly Ice Crystal landed steadily in it, a perfectly hexagonal crystal, exquisite and transparent, with a silvery luster, emitting pure ice spirit power.

"Thank you." Ye You said to the Snow Demon Leader, then looked down at Qin Sisi and gently said, "I promised to share good things with you, co, let’s split it half and half."

Before Qin Sisi could respond, the Snow Demon Leader was already shocked, asking in astonishnt, "Sage Ruler, the Heavenly Ice Crystal is a rare treasure. Your spirit pet is indeed remarkable; it’s the first ti I’ve seen one that can speak human language, but it shouldn’t need such a strong Ice Attribute Magic Force!"

Ye You said indifferently, "It doesn’t need it now, but it will in the future."

"But..."

The Snow Demon Leader wanted to say sothing more, but Ye You was no longer inclined to listen. He invited Qin Sisi to sit with him on the cold, damp ground to ditate, so they could both absorb the ice spirit power of the millennium Heavenly Ice Crystal together.

Seeing Ye You’s sincere gesture, Qin Sisi couldn’t bear to refuse and followed his suggestion, ditatively absorbing half of the magic power condensed within the Heavenly Ice Crystal.

A treasure is indeed a treasure; the power of the Heavenly Ice Crystal is incomparable to ordinary Magic Crystal Stones.

After absorbing the Ice Attribute Magic Power from the Heavenly Ice Crystal, both Ye You and Qin Sisi could feel changes occurring within their Magic Source, with the white crystal core symbolizing Ice Magic flickering continuously, indicating that Ice Magic was strengthening.

An hour later, most of the absorbed ice spirit power was integrated into their Magic Source, with the remainder needing gradual assimilation.

They stood up from the ground, Qin Sisi took the initiative to thank the Snow Demon Leader, while Ye You kept a calm expression and ignored him.

The Snow Demon Leader didn’t mind, responding with a smile to Qin Sisi and raising a torch to lead the way, guiding them out of the Snow Demon Tribe’s Holy Land and back to his dwelling in the cave.

Although everything went smoothly, the Snow Demon Leader felt heavy-hearted, speaking in a low voice to Ye You, "Sage Ruler Yeyou, thank you very much for helping the Snow Demon Tribe, but the wood will eventually burn out, and when the torches go out, the situation of the Snow Demon Tribe will not change at all."

Ye You responded solemnly, "Rest assured, Chief, the wood of the Fir Tree has the most compact texture, and I’ve enhanced it with so magic power, making it more fla-resistant. A single torch can be used for at least a year."

"And after a year?" The Snow Demon Leader’s brows remained deeply furrowed, as he had to think ahead, beyond the present.

Ye You replied unhurriedly, "It won’t take even a year for the Extre North Ice Field to return to its original state."

These words changed the Snow Demon Leader’s expression, prompting him to ask urgently, "Is that true? Does the Sage Ruler have a good plan?"

Ye You did not answer directly but told the Snow Demon Leader, "This is my promise to the Snow Demon Tribe. You upheld your promise, and I will certainly uphold mine. I will remain with the Snow Demon Tribe temporarily until the environnt of the Extre North Ice Field returns to normal."

The Snow Demon Leader’s expression was a bit excited, feeling completely grateful to Ye You, and he bowed to him respectfully, sincerely asking, "Sage Ruler, is there anything I can do?"

Ye You pondered for a mont, then looked down at Qin Sisi and said, "Go and fetch the most powerful, handso, and unmarried young man of the Snow Demon Tribe for ."

"Huh?" The Snow Demon Leader stared at Ye You, flabbergasted, with a whirl of mixed thoughts he couldn’t suppress, wondering if this Sage Ruler might be...
