Chapter 32: Warm Iceberg

  As thoughts fluttered about, a white light suddenly pierced through the snake's body, and it was a flying sword.

  The water snake ate painfully and jumped up, deeply drilling into the bottom of the pool, Su Mo's eyes were all blurry with water in front of him.

  Unfortunately, her body became increasingly stiff and unable to move, her complexion also turned pale and bloodless.

  Suddenly, a strong arm wrapped around her slender waist, lifted her out of the water, and with a few leaps, they were back on shore.

  Su Mo slowly raised his eyes, vaguely seeing the white sleeves embroidered with light gold patterns beside him, a silver hairband and raven-black hair, as well as Wen Renyi's sharp jawline and straight nose, handsome face just inches away. His clothes were also wet from the water curtain, and it had to be said that the half-wet posture of a man's clothes had an inexplicable coolness and beauty.

  At this moment, Su Mo was frozen stiff all over, his limbs had almost lost their sensation, and he couldn't speak a word. His cheeks were pale and bloodless.

  Uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable, of course, her mental discomfort also occupied a large part.

  Who would have thought that she, so clever all her life, also had such a shameless side, and it was even in front of a handsome and elegant man.

  At this moment, she can only force herself to calm down, thicken her skin, muster up some strength, and cannot help but want to get close to him.

  The man had a very refreshing minty scent on him, cool and comfortable, yet not lacking in warmth. He seemed cold and unfeeling, but also as if warm sunshine was by his side.

  At the touch of her fingertips, she felt a warmth that spread throughout her body. Su Mo's emotions were stirred up and couldn't be contained. She immediately became enamored with his body heat, as if she wanted to absorb every last bit of it. Wen Renyao finally saw something unusual in her eyes. The man's eyes, which had been flickering uncertainly, grew increasingly dark, and his two arms wrapped tightly around the girl's body, holding her close against his pure white clothes.

  The moonlight made his wet shirt slightly transparent, outlining the beautiful and perfect lines of muscle under his clothes.

  He then gently laid her on the ground, his arms propped up beside her, his eyes deep and gazing down at her from above.

  He said in a low voice: "Su Niang, this place is fraught with danger. There are strange beasts inside the pool, and the water is extremely cold. You must get warm as soon as possible."

  Su Mo exhaled a mouthful of white mist and blinked his eyes, indicating that he understood clearly.

  "I've offended you." Wen Renyi placed one hand on her body, slowly transmitting his inner energy.

  He lowered his head, a strand of black hair falling down, and carefully undid her clothes, although this was already the second time he had touched her garments. Unfortunately, he seemed not to be good at handling such things, and his hands were clumsy and rough, taking half a day to undo one white silk cord. However, what fell into his eyes was not a golden heavenly book, nor a light blue lining, but a winter wonderland of red clouds and white snow, a beautiful scene unfolding before him. Su's ink-black eyes already had a misty haze, although his body was cold and trembling all over, his face couldn't help but flush with heat.

  A few drops of sweat fell from his forehead, and Wen Renyao's face still maintained an icy expression, cold and cool.

  All he saw was the wet beads of sweat trickling down the woman's snowy white shoulders and dripping slowly across her collarbone.

  Droplets of water sparkle, shining brightly and overflowing with color. Falling into view is her elegant curved neck, a thousand times more beautiful than the Goddess of the Luo River in ancient paintings, the hazy moonlight has rendered her snowy white and smooth figure as dreamy and illusory.

  This scene is as if the Snow Mountain Goddess has descended upon the world, extremely moving and making one want to worship.

  Wen Renyi took a deep breath and calmly asked: "Miss Su, do you have any spare clothes?"

  Su Mo raised her sparkling eyes, gazing at him slowly, her cheeks flushing red, the shy and bashful posture of a young girl was really lovely.

  Thinking of herself not having prepared clothes, Su Mo slowly shook her head and blinked.

  Just then, the man let out a sigh and wrapped his arms around her, draping the fox fur cloak over both of their bodies, completely covering them. Su Mo hadn't expected that this garment had not been soaked through.

  He originally wanted to carry her on his back, but unexpectedly Su Mo tightly hugged his neck and wouldn't let go, unable to get more warmth from behind.

  The woman's head was tilted to the side, and she had gradually fallen into a daze. Hearing Yu Xi sigh, he could only use his hand to support her body and walk forward in big strides.

  The tactile sensation transmitted through his hands was as smooth as silk. The unintentional rubbing made his heart feel like an electric current passing through, causing a tingling sensation.

  After a while, the rustling sound of footsteps suddenly came from the forest, and Wen Renyao's eyes were filled with fierce killing intent like a raging tide. It became chilling, and he freed his right hand to grasp the sword at his waist.

  "Wait, young master is one of us." The two men knelt there, being extremely cautious, not even daring to breathe.

  "Is it you? What brings you here?" Wen Renyi's voice remained cold and calm.

  "We specially invite you to go back."

  But as he saw the crowd's eyes dimming, a sword light flashed in his hand, drawing out a dividing line. "I am clearly distinct from all of you, if anyone crosses this boundary by even one step, they will surely die."

  The two of them pleaded, "Young Master, why must you be so heartless? His Majesty misses you and hopes that you can return to form an alliance through marriage."

  Wei Ren Yi said coldly: "No need, I already have a woman I like. You can go back and report now."

  At this moment, two dark shadows stared at each other, their eyes fixed on Su Mo, seeing her lying on top of the young master, even sharing a fox fur coat with him. A snow-white bare foot and half a small leg were exposed from under the coat, no matter how you looked at it, they seemed incredibly intimate. Perhaps the young master really had found a woman he liked, who knows? It seems that this way, they will be even harder to rescue.

  The two of them knelt there, staring blankly as Wen Renyi slowly walked away, never daring to disobey him in the slightest.

  Wen Renyi held the girl in his arms, and a strange emotion lingered in his heart like wisps of cloud.

  At this moment, a snow-white shadow flew over, and it was the returning Ice Fox.

  The little thing tilted its head and looked at Wen Renyi, softly calling out as it came to show off.

  "Did you bring the carriage for me? Thank you." Wen Renyi's eyes were once again filled with a faint, clear light.

  The arctic fox jumped up and down, feeling that its usual place was occupied by the woman, stretched out sharp claws, and couldn't help but start pointing fingers.

  "You say we should not be intimate with each other, don't worry! Although I'm not a gentleman, I'm absolutely not a despicable person either, and I won't do anything to her." Wen Renyi's face remained expressionless, but Bing Hu immediately let out a soft snort.

  He didn't bother with the ice fox, but heard that someone had lifted him up and brought him into the carriage. Unfortunately, the woman still hadn't let go of him, so he could only sit there quietly, his eyes slightly narrowed.

  He still held her in his arms, mobilized his inner strength, and tried to help her cultivate her vital energy to dispel the cold.

  The arctic fox jumped up again, walking back and forth in the carriage, gesturing with its paws.

  Wen Renyi raised his eyes, furrowed his brow, "Oh? You actually said she's like a fox spirit and that I couldn't resist her charm?"

  Ice Fox nodded, his eyes with a hint of sarcasm, as if it was an inspiring way.

  Wen Renyi hummed softly and said deliberately: "What you said is right, I indeed can't resist her charm."

  The Ice Fox was immediately stunned and then petrified, with three black lines standing upright on its forehead.

  It walked back and forth with a very unpleasant feeling, looking at the two people warming up, the ice fox's gaze became more and more disdainful and scornful.

  At this moment, he could smell the soft and warm fragrance of Yuwen in his arms. His hands were transmitting internal energy, and sweat was constantly dripping from his forehead to the ground. He didn't know if it was because he had transmitted too much internal energy or if he was stabilizing his heart to prevent turmoil. His black hair flowed like water over his shoulders, and he gently lowered his eyelids, observing his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose. Although he deeply knew that he wasn't a shameless person, and even knew that his cultivation could allow him to remain calm and unruffled, he naturally wouldn't lose control of his emotions because of beauty. The women he encountered in his daily life were just red-skinned skeletons, completely devoid of meaning.

  But there is an exception at the moment, and for some reason, every time I get close to Su Mo, I feel a kind of inexplicable palpitation in my heart.

  Wen Ren Yi looked at the woman in his arms, his eyes falling on her enchanting crimson lips, but saw that the lip color had a gem-like luster.

  His eyes were usually clear and cold as ice, but at this moment, there seemed to be a fierce flame burning in the bottom of his eyes.

  Su Mo was currently having a dream, the winter snow in front of her melted away, and it was just the time when spring arrived with blooming flowers. Her body gradually became movable, and she had nothing to do but tend to the flowers in the garden of Su's countryside house. The air around her was filled with the refreshing scent of mint leaves. In early spring, many green sugarcane sprouts grew in the courtyard, which was lush and verdant all around. There were also her favorite flowers and plants like lilac, and even mint leaves. She couldn't help but stretch out her fingertips to gently touch and play with them, when she felt a hand holding hers back. A soft sighing sound came from the man's ear, "Don't move."

  Then, she immediately felt something cold touch her cheek, and Su Mo was taken aback.

  She slowly opened her eyes and saw a handsome and cold face in front of her, with his eyes closed, inches away.

  Outside the car window, the moonlight is elegant and hazy. It faintly illuminates the man's handsome face without equal.

  His long eyelashes cast a fascinating half-moon shadow arc.

  Suddenly, he lowered his head and touched her lips with a light kiss.

  Su Mo immediately suppressed the gloomy mood, but couldn't say a word. She stared quietly at him, and if her elbow could move, she would definitely give him a hard hit. Unfortunately, it didn't work out that way. Su Mo was secretly annoyed in her heart, staring at him with wide eyes, looking at the man's icy face, which was different from his usual cold and elegant demeanor. She even felt a refreshing scent wafting towards her, just like the fragrance of mint in her dreams. Unconsciously, Su Mo felt her head spinning as if it were about to boil over.

  At this moment, she looked out of the carriage window, trying to keep her mind clear, secretly wondering if he was infatuated, pitied, or uncontrollably in love, or bewitched.

  It's all because she was so weak and had no energy at all, even her words couldn't be expressed properly, and she couldn't help but think wildly.

  The carriage swayed, and her thoughts gradually drifted away, her eyes becoming increasingly blurry. Yet, it reminded her of many beautiful moments from her past lives when she was young, feeling extremely warm. She admitted that this taste was very good, making her deeply indulged in it, and also deeply unable to extricate herself, even unable to refuse.

  The cool night was like water, and the chill on her body slightly subsided. She only felt that her mind was gradually becoming a blank slate, with infinite fatigue.

  When Wen Ren Yu opened his eyes, he saw Su Mo staring at him with a dazed expression, and it turned out that the other person had already woken up.

  In an instant, he sat up like a child who had done something wrong and was discovered by an adult, lightly touching his nose, turning his eyes sideways, and his pale face was tinged with a faint suspicious blush.
