Chapter 170 Frozen Passion

Qing'er stepped forward, blocking his way, and glared at the beauty like a vicious dog, saying, "Those people have been trying to capture you, young master,

so what? Why are you being so fierce?"

Yehe Yadai scolded, "You brat, who told you to come here and cause trouble? I didn't invite you,

what are you doing interrupting adults' conversations!"

Qing'er paused, then suddenly laughed, "I've always been a strange person. Even if someone earnestly invites me, I might not

be willing to go. My greatest hobby is to come uninvited, so what? You've always been even more aloof than you, but in the end, you still

treat me like an honored guest. You tell me, young master, isn't that right?" The last sentence was spoken to Wuyue.

Wuyue was stunned, and stammered, "You, you little girl, didn't you say you were going to be my slave? How come you're an

honored ? Of course, I do treat you as a young friend." He suddenly realized that this girl, besides being stubborn,

was also incredibly thick-skinned!

Qing'er ignored him and turned to Yehe Yadai, saying, "Just now, Young Master couldn't think of which

flower to describe you. Actually, I think..."

Yehe Yadai asked curiously, "How about it?"

Qing'er blinked and innocently said, "Actually, using 'mountain snow lotus' to describe your appearance is the most fitting!"

This time, it was the beauty's turn to be stunned. She touched her cheek and felt an urge to grab a mirror and look at herself. This

child finally knew what was good for her and knew she couldn't offend her. Children don't lie. Could she really be that

beautiful?

Qing'er added, "And the most precious kind..."

The beauty couldn't help but laugh. The Snow Lotus of Wealth and Nobility truly suited her status and unparalleled beauty. But then she saw Wu Yue's

ambiguous smile, her jade-like face flushed red. Suddenly realizing what she'd done, she roared angrily, "Guards! Throw

this brat out of here!"

A chase erupted in the hall, footsteps clattering. Once caught, the child rolled on the ground,

threatening to bite her tongue and commit suicide, creating a chaotic scene. Finally, covered in dust and wisps of snot and tears, she

stood properly beside Wu Yue.

The burly men, panting, stared at her, glancing timidly at their master every now and then. They were at a loss for what to do with the

child . Jurchen hunters valued children highly, for they were the hope for the tribe's revival. They couldn't possibly force her to her death,

could they?

Looking at her disheveled state, even if she wore clean clothes, she'd be back to being a little beggar in no time! Wu Yue

sighed inwardly, "This child has utterly disgraced me!

What !"

The beauty glared hatefully at Qing'er, but the little wild boy glared back defiantly. Their

eyes met, one bigger than the other's, and despite her best efforts to widen them, she couldn't out-glare the brat! She was so angry she was panting

heavily, speechless for a moment. After a long while, she said disdainfully, "To argue with a child like you would be

beneath my dignity!"

Qing'er pouted and retorted sharply, "Yes, you should be magnanimous!" Her

tone was noticeably more forceful when she said "magnanimous," as if that was befitting the rarity and preciousness of the thousand-year-old snow lotus!

Wu Yue had never realized this girl was so sharp-tongued and unwilling to back down in a verbal

battle, a far cry from her usual naive and dull self. Seeing the beauty's face growing increasingly grim, he quickly interjected to avoid things getting too tense, "Does

Li Tianxiu want you to hand me over to him?"

The beauty turned to look at him, still somewhat indignant, but secretly resolved to ignore that rude little savage. She

sighed, nodded, and said, "Yes, the exchange is very generous—a small wooden box filled to the brim with

heavy gold!"

Then she swayed her head towards him, adding, "Look at these pink diamond earrings, aren't they beautiful? They were also

a gift from Lord Li."

Wu Yue looked up and saw that they were no longer the sapphire earrings he had seen her before; they had been replaced with a pair of

dazzling , exquisite pink diamond earrings—truly rare treasures! No wonder there's a saying, "A fine sword for

a martyr , rouge for a beauty." Wearing these pink diamond earrings, she looked even more elegant and graceful, truly

stunning!

Qing'er blurted out, "She's so beautiful, even a thousand-year-old snow lotus can't compare, she's almost as beautiful as a ten-thousand-year-old lingzhi mushroom!"

What an hateful little girl! What a vicious mouth! Doesn't she know that women are very concerned about their age?

What's worse, she is indeed no longer young. In the past two years, when she looked in the mirror, she often lamented the fading beauty of youth! She gritted

her teeth in anger , and her resolve began to waver.

Wu Yue snapped, "Shut up! Get out of my way!" In his anger, he forgot to maintain

his composure and turned to the beauty, saying, "Hmm~ beautiful, very beautiful..." While praising her,

a deep disappointment welled up on his face, and his heart sank.

Seeing his expression, Yehe Yadai chuckled and said leisurely, "Don't misunderstand, this treasure

isn't part of the bounty; it's just a personal gift from Lord Li!"

This was probably the first time he had seen her radiant smile, a beauty that

could stunned! Fortunately, he wasn't naive; he quickly regained his composure. He

needed to get to the bottom of things: "So, what did you... what did you say to him?"

He then turned and glared at the oblivious girl, signaling her to behave or face the consequences! Qing'er

ignored his threatening gaze and kept staring at the naturally alluring woman. Her wide

, cocky eyes were full of provocation, and she refused to show any weakness!

The beauty finally made up her mind not to look at her again, lest she annoy herself, and forced a smile, saying, "I told him

you're not here with me... Sigh! To be honest, among the officials of the Millennium Dynasty, my brother and I have always had a good personal relationship with Lord Li

, so I really feel bad about lying to him like this."

Wu Yue's face was moved, and she said gratefully, "Thank you so much for the great kindness of the Lord of the Fortress! If I have the chance, I will definitely repay

you! But I don't know... I don't know why Lord Yehe Fortress is willing to help me like this?"

Yehe Ya Dai frowned slightly and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Qing'er glared at her again and said, "Can't you even understand such a simple question? I'm asking why you're helping us?"

Yehe Ya Dai glared at her angrily and roared, "I'm only helping him, when did I say I was going to help you? What

do I care about your life or death, you brat!" In her anger and embarrassment, she finally couldn't help but swear!

Wu Yue was furious, his teeth itching. This girl never spoke when she should, and always talked a lot when she should

n't! Didn't she know what kind of occasion this was? If her broken leg hadn't been injured, he would have picked her up and thrown her out the door!

He carefully examined the beauty. After her outburst of anger, her face returned to calm, seemingly

unfathomable . He couldn't discern anything amiss, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "I just wanted to ask,

what does the Lord of the Fortress intend to do with us now?"

Yehe Yadai pondered for a while, then frowned and said, "Have Xiao Fang send you away tonight. Although Lord Li wouldn't dare send anyone

into the castle to search for you, it's not good for you to stay here any longer."

He was moved to tears, bowed deeply to her, and thanked her, "Thank you, Lord of the Fortress! After I leave, I'll entrust this child

to you. Actually, although this child speaks harshly, he has a good heart..."

Before Yehe Yadai could speak, Qing'er hurriedly called out... "No! I'm going with you!"

he snapped. "The further you go with me, the less safe it will be.

Have you forgotten the lessons learned from your injuries in Wolf Valley and the western grasslands? Listen to me, stay here obediently, and I'll send someone to fetch

you when we reach a safe place."

Qing'er stiffened her neck, her eyes widening even more than his, and stubbornly declared, "I won't!"

For the next hour and a half, he and Qing'er engaged in a new round of fierce debate over whether she should stay or leave.

They argued fiercely, each holding their own opinion. He never imagined that he, usually so gentle and refined, would lose his temper to

the point of smashing a bowl. Fortunately, the wooden plate wasn't broken; otherwise, how would he explain it to Xiao Fang?

As fate would have it, the night was dark, perfect for a cover-up. At midnight, Xiao Fang

carried him and Qing'er out of the fortress gate in an oxcart, carefully heading east. He tried everything—persuasion,

threats , intimidation—he used every trick in the book, but his attempts to deal with this woman always fizzled out. This time

was no different; nothing worked, and she still followed him.

He finally understood what kind of person was most terrifying: someone so reckless and shameless!

Yehe Yadai stood alone on the fortress gate's battlements, seeing him off. The faint moonlight

filtering cast a graceful silhouette behind her, but what

expression did her face, shrouded in darkness, hold?

She stood on the battlements for a long time. The wind whipped her clothes, her long black hair beneath her purple mink hat

billowing across her chest and back. Her velvet white dress and mink vest danced and swirled in the air,

and her sapphire earrings sparkled in the night, as dazzling as her limpid eyes!

Though extremely reluctant, she finally removed the beautiful pink diamond earrings, intending to return them to

Li Tianxiu . If she couldn't avert disaster, she couldn't accept his money!

She gazed at the rolling mountains beneath the stars and moon on the eastern horizon—the very mountains that had blocked the advance of the Liaodong

Jurchens .

She loved the icy, howling winds of this hilly region, enough to extinguish any flame, whether

in the fields or in her heart. She didn't need any passion or fervor; she needed the calm of ice, the unwavering strength of the rocks on

the eastern Black Mountain. For her tribe to survive beside the powerful neighbor to the east, she

and her brother had to be extremely vigilant!

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, she put her right hand to her mouth and whistled. The fortress gates below opened again, and

a covered carriage and more than ten knights filed out of the city, their hooves thundering as they galloped northward.

She waited a while longer, and then, from the distant southwest, she faintly heard voices and the neighing of horses. Finally, her figure disappeared over

the city walls.

Wuyue and Qing'er continued their escape, traveling slowly eastward in an oxcart under the stars.

He ignored Qing'er, still fuming about what had happened before they set off. As with all the times he had been defeated

before, Qing'er constantly tried to amuse him with smiles and casual conversation, serving him with increasing

attentiveness , like a victorious wrestler comforting a defeated opponent. After a while, he finally

accepted her kindness and forgave her once again.

He prayed constantly that the Embroidered Robe Pavilion wouldn't discover him again and track him down, because although his

wounds had mostly healed, the broken bone in his leg hadn't fully healed, and the oxcart couldn't move fast. If discovered, he

would be helpless.

Whether his prayers worked or for some other reason, the oxcart traveled slowly through hills,

forests , and swamps, the road was calm, and they didn't encounter the Embroidered Robe Pavilion's forces again.
