Chapter 1443: Snow Qiong Blossom (Jiu Ge and Li Li Extra)
The winter’s lancholic song, the cold wind desolate, the distant Midair City is snowing again.
Flakes of pristine snow drift down from the heavily clouded sky, like catkins, like goose feathers, like jade leaves falling from the laurel tree in the Moon Palace, like jade butterflies flapping their wings.
The desolate Midair City is blanketed under layers of snow, suddenly becoming crystal-clear and beautiful, like a fairy tale castle carved in ice and jade from ancient legends.
Beyond the curtain, the snow begins to flutter, the night’s chill has not diminished the fire, dreams a thousand miles away, longing grows more solitary.
Jiu Ge stands with his hands behind his back by the window, gazing deeply at the incessantly falling snow outside, motionless for a long ti, lost in unknown thoughts.
The cold wind, carrying snowflakes, blows into the room, setting his snow-white clothes and long hair fluttering, yet he seems unfazed.
He had long handed over the position of clan leader of the Changkong family to Xia Long, choosing to live alone at the peak of God Eagle Mountain, ordering that apart from Xia Long and Li Li, no one may co near his dwelling.
He once spent a decade in absurdity and chaos under his mother’s misguided teachings; now, he only wishes to quietly spend the remaining ti.
The years are peaceful, the heart like still water. At this mont, only two things reside in his heart: practicing magic and the yearning deeply buried within.
Quiet living and tranquil emotions enable Jiu Ge to achieve a perfect state of selflessness in his practice, with exceptionally effective results.
In a very short period, he ascended to beco a Demon Lord, standing only behind Ye You and Qin Sisi in the Demon Sacred Realm.
Magic power can be continuously improved through hard practice, yet yearning is rely futile when forced, and forlornness is a type of madness.
In the blink of an eye, a century has passed; so people, so things, gradually fade away; so longings, however, still linger deep within the heart.
The snow continues to fall; Jiu Ge rely stands there, unmoving and silent.
As ti slips by little by little, Jiu Ge’s expression gradually turns anxious.
Today is not an ordinary day; today is his birthday.
In fact, he had long ceased to care about birthdays, yet what he keeps thinking about is a promise: soone who, every year on his birthday, fulfills her promise by bringing him a snow lotus flower.
But this year, she has yet to co, so Jiu Ge has not seen that exquisite snow lotus flower.
Did she forget?
Skeptical for a mont, Jiu Ge imdiately shook his head resolutely; even if the whole world forgot him, he knows she wouldn’t.
The falling snow in the sky seems to darken quickly; as the day begins to grow dim, Jiu Ge makes a decision, leaping directly out of the open window, releasing magic power to form magic wings, swiftly flying into the vast drifting snow.
His destination is Beixuan Mountain because the snow lotus flower only grows there.
The swiftly falling snowflakes heavily interfere with his vision, preventing Jiu Ge from achieving his utmost speed. Seeing the sky dimming further, he grits his teeth, pushes out a surge of wind attribute magic power to blow away the swirling snowflakes before him, and his vision suddenly clears.
However, the snowflakes do not disappear; these unappreciative white elves continue to drift down from the sky, repeatedly obstructing Jiu Ge’s vision, compelling him to continuously release wind attribute magic power to clear the obstructing snowflakes.
Before night fully descended, Jiu Ge finally reaches Beixuan Mountain, taking a deep breath, letting the cold sensation fill his entire lungs, then begins to fly rapidly up the mountain, with ears perked to listen intently.
His ears are extraordinary, blessed with super hearing, capable of perceiving sounds from a great distance.
After so ti of flying upwards, he finally faintly hears the sound of battle.
Jiu Ge’s expression tightens, imdiately speeding towards the direction of the sound.
The source of the sound is exactly where Li Li is. She never forgets Jiu Ge’s birthday and steadfastly follows his past instruction by coming to Beixuan Mountain to pluck a snow lotus flower for him each year.
Yet this year it seems she is not so fortunate, perhaps due to the snow-bound mountain, the demonic beasts are particularly fierce. As soon as she picked a snow lotus flower, she was attacked by a Ferocious Ice Bear.
This beast has tough skin and massive strength, with ordinary and ice magic attacks both being extrely formidable, making it a difficult opponent.
With Jiu Ge’s assistance, Li Li reached the level of Demon Emperor. This Ferocious Ice Bear is also a Level Seven Demonic Beast, matching evenly with Li Li, making it hard to tell who will prevail.
