At this point, Chu Liuyue’s hand suddenly trembled.

Rong Xiu’s gaze flickered as he returned to his senses and looked at her. At that moment, the darkness in his eyes had completely dissipated.

The usual gentleness and quietness, which only appeared in front of her, filled his eyes again.

She didn’t open her eyes, and it seemed like she hadn’t woken up yet. However, Rong Xiu was very confident that her consciousness should be gradually recovering.

But at this point, she was in this helpless state—she was frozen and couldn’t move.

“Yue’er.” Rong Xiu held her hands tightly and interlocked her fingers, digging into her palm, bit by bit. It seemed as if this could warm her up.

His voice was low and melodious with a hint of undetectable hoarseness. It was as if he were trying his best to suppress something.

“Yue’er, wake up.” Chu Liuyue didn’t remember how long she had been in a coma. Ever since the coldness entered her body and gradually froze it, her consciousness also seemed to blur.

She seemed to be floating in a pure white space with no borders, and she had no direction either. It seemed like no matter where she went, she couldn’t leave this place.

She felt that something was amiss and wanted to leave this strange state as soon as possible. However, there vaguely seemed to be countless pairs of invisible hands continuously holding her back and dragging her back to the spot time and time again.

Just when she was exhausted and wanted to give up, a familiar voice suddenly floated over from a distant time and space.

Rong Xiu! Chu Liuyue woke up almost immediately! She started to try again, attempting to allow her consciousness to be rid of this restraint. But her eyelids were very heavy, and her entire body was enveloped in an indescribable, sourish coldness.

She never knew that she would be stumped by an extremely simple action of opening her eyes one day. However, Rong Xiu’s calls kept entering her ears from time to time, causing her to wake up and be clear.

After some time, she finally saw a golden spark in the pure white space.

…

The golden spark had spread to Chu Liuyue’s body, and it burned brightly.

The bloody frost continuously melted. Her hands finally seemed to have a bit of warmth.

Rong Xiu’s gaze turned and landed on the golden fire. Then, he knitted his brows tightly.

The powers of this coldness… had long exceeded his previous predictions.

Although this golden fire could cause the bloody frost to melt, it took a lot of effort. During this short period of time, quite a bit of his inner body force had been used up, but he had only saved one of her hands.

If he wanted to get rid of all the frost in her entire body, he would probably have to use all of his force. However, the cold kept surging upward, and it would take the upper hand sooner or later.

But with this torture, he didn’t know how much time they had to spend here.

If the coldness stays in her body for too long, it will cause severe damage to her body. She has just broken through to become a true god and summoned her God Realm. If her physical body is damaged now, then her future Holy Body… Thinking of this, coldness flashed across Rong Xiu’s eyes.

Finally, he moved his long arm and hugged her! At the same time, a black fire exuded from his other hand!

The two black and golden fires intertwined tightly, and his aura strengthened instantly!

A totem faintly appeared between Rong Xu’s brows!

…

Crack!

A crisp shatter was suddenly heard!

Rong Xiu looked over to the source of the sound and suddenly realized that a long crack had appeared on the rock at the side! The strange thing was that this crack looked like someone had used an extremely sharp blade to cut right across it!

Clean-cut and straight!

Then, a faint silver light flowed out from within. Finally, that cracked form a silver line.

An indescribable suppression exuded from within!

Rong Xiu knitted his brows. This is… the Heaven-Locking Formation! 

As if wanting to confirm Rong Xiu’s guess, a second crack and a third crack quickly appeared on the rocks at the side! In no time, this small space was completely surrounded by the lines of the Xuan formation!

These lines looked the same as they did outside—they had clean cuts and were very regular, yet they were filled with murderous energy!

When the lightning bolts landed, they just made faint marks on this rock! But the moment this Heaven-Locking Formation was activated, the rock was cut silently!

Rong Xiu surveyed his surroundings.

These lines started to approach the two of them.

Clearly, in order to suppress the item below, the Heaven-Locking Formation was going to directly destroy the entire Million Wine Mountain—including everything inside!

Suddenly, his chest tightened. His heart faltered slightly as he gazed at the person in his arms.

More than half of her body was still frozen, but at this point, the frost had half-melted from her shoulders, and her arms were finally free.

She raised her hands and almost instinctively approached Rong Xiu.

One of her hands was tightly held by Rong Xiu while she raised the other one with much difficulty and tightly grabbed the clothes on her chest, dragging them down.

Almost instantly, Rong Xiu understood what she meant.

He looked down slightly.

The Chi Xiao Sword quietly lay on the rock.

Rong Xiu raised his hand, and a ray of golden light flew across. The Chi Xiao Sword instantly flew up!

Rong Xiu held the Chi Xiao Sword in his hands.

At this point, a silver line on the rock suddenly moved and went for the back of Chu Liuyue’s head! Following this, all the lines in the surroundings followed closely and cut across the middle!
