'Am I going to freeze to death here?'

Xiao Mei was already completely frozen like an ice sculpture, but it was fortunate that she could still resuscitate herself. Long time he was still petrified in ice, suddenly a spirit appeared in the form of Shua Xie. The spirit approached Xiao Mei and touched her but the ice barrier wall was very thick. Shua Xie gathered as much energy as he could in one fist and then blasted it firmly into the ice-covered wall that froze Xiao Mei.

One blow still did not make the ice break even, this time to two blows Shua Xie gathered more power in his fist and then hit him, a small crack sounded from the ice wall.

After landing the second blow suddenly came an attack from above hundreds of ice spears shot rapidly towards Shua Xie. Shua Xie deftly tried to dodge but due to the number of spears so many and also they darted so fast that Shua Xie got a few punches from the ice spear that pierced through his spirit.

Shua Xie's spirit grimaced softly as dozens of spearheads pierced through his body, but that wouldn't make Shua Xie give up. If Shua Xie had known that Xiao Mei had a special body like this, he would have thought of another method to activate it. But regret and complaining are also useless, Shua Xie is not a God of timekeepers who can flip time as they please.

Once again Shua Xie gathered as much of his strength as he could from the previous one, the blow this time was his most powerful final blow. Shua Xie had already accumulated all his strength at one central point.

Shua Xie also hit the ice wall as hard as he could. The ice that made Xiao Mei freeze its cracks began to spread in all directions until finally the ice wall was smashed into pieces.

Not only was the ice wall shattered, the chains that entwined the spirit spirit Xiao Mei were also destroyed. After giving the final blow Shua Xie disappeared out of nowhere.

The already free spirit Xiao Mei flew into Xiao Mei's body. White and blue light began to surround Xiao Mei's entire body, the longer the light grew brighter.

Xiao Mei regained consciousness from her meditation. Seeming that his original strength had already appeared, his tattoo spirit that had been sealed open turned out to bring about a physical change impact on his body. His previously brownish hair now turned white, his previously white skin was now increasingly white and even pale. Likewise with the color of his eyeballs turned white, his height also turned out to rise several CM. Perhaps because his aura tattoo was sealed made his growth slow down.

Xiao Mei looked left and right looking for the whereabouts of Shua Xie until she looked back when she heard the sound of someone coughing. Shua Xie sat dying, so much fresh blood coming out of his mouth.

"Sister Shua! What the hell is going on with you! Brother Shua don't die!" Xiao Mei shook the body of Shua Xie who was lying in the meadow. There was a slight ringing sound from Shua Xie. Xiao Mei directly checked Shua Xie's heart rate.

"Geez, Brother Shua's heart rate is weakening! Let's not let his spirit be seriously injured from the attack!" Xiao Mei was shocked greatly.

"Sister Shua please don't die! I-i'm sorry! If I hadn't forced you to train me, none of this would have happened!"

"It's all my fault! If only I were not selfish! Sorry Brother! Pardon me! Please hold on, I promise I won't trouble the family anymore!" Xiao Mei cried as she hugged Shua Xie.

Amidst her cries, it faintly resounded again the small voice of Shua Xie asking her to return to the village and ask for help. Xiao Mei flinched when she heard Shua Xie's hoarse voice, she quickly stood up and ran away from Shua Xie.

But before he left, Xiao Mei had time to provide ice protection to keep watch if there were any ferocious beasts that would attack Shua Xie when he was not around.

Xiao Mei ran as fast as she could while wiping away her tears, "Get up Brother Shua! I will definitely come back to bring Grandpa and the others!"

***

An Hour Later ....

As long as Xiao Mei ran down the street many people who were staring at her were amazed as well as confused. At the head of the villagers they wondered who the white-haired girl who ran so fast was in such a hurry. Yet Xiao Mei did not care about their views on him, currently the most important he was Shua Xie.

When Xiao Mei reached in front of the gate of her residence, she intercepted several bodyguards because none of the bodyguards knew her due to her new changes. But Xiao Mei still insisted on wanting to go inside, with her forced use of her ice crystal spirit power, she froze anyone 2 meters away from her making some other bodyguards dare not approach her.

"Don't block my path! Any one of you who gets in my way, I won't hesitate to kill you!" xiao Mei was coldly resolute while crushing the gate with her spirit power.

Xiao Mei immediately rushed in as the guards already did not dare to block her. When he had just arrived inside the courtyard, appeared his Eldest Uncle and Aunt.

Eldest Uncle blocked Xiao Mei's path, "Who are you! How dare to break through the Xiao residence! Were you sent from the Ye family!?" his question was full of caution, he had to be vigilant if the ice girl suddenly attacked him.

"Uncle I'm Xiao Mei! I need your help! Brother Shua is injured, he needs our help!" xiao Mei replied loudly.

"May'er? You're Mei'er? But." Eldest Uncle was still a little less trusting than the others.

"Areally Xiao Mei! Brother Shua helped me dedicate my spirit aurah, and the awakening of my spirit aurah made my appearance change!"

"Rise how can it!? No one should be able to awaken your spirit aura!" Surprise Oldest Uncle. At the same time the Chieftain, Lou Yue and Xiao Ming came over with shocked expressions.

"Ice crystal body!?" Lou Yue was startled, seeing the ice crystal body was a rare thing to see. Moreover, the ice crystal body was a rare special body, a special body like this there was only one among the others.

"Mei'er who unlocked your spirit mouthful!?" asked the Chief in a surprised tone.

Xiao Ming was completely shocked, "May'er your appearance changed. Why can?" mumbled Xiao Ming slowly.

"Grandfather please Brother Shua! Brother Shua is injured! Since he helped me unseal, his spirit was severely injured! Now that he is really in danger, we must help Brother Shua! He's in the meadow by the woods!" xiao Mei exclaimed loudly making the others stunned, some were partly confused because they had not even known who Shua Xie was?

"Is Shua hurt!?" Lou Yue was pleasantly surprised, without waiting for the others she immediately headed towards the location where Shua Xie was injured. Lou Yue disappeared in an instant using a shadowy stance.

"Explain to Grandpa exactly what happened?"

Xiao Mei wiped away her tears, "Kak Shua helped me unseal the seal that sealed my spirit power. But when he helped me Kak Shua's spirit got an attack and now he's hurt! Brother Shua told me to go back to the village and ask for help! Come on, cake, we have to help Brother Shua!" Xiao Mei pulled the hand of the Chieftain wanting to save Shua Xie as quickly as possible.

"Alright, you stay here so Grandpa and Uncle will be there. Xiao Lie come with me!" firmly the Chief while looking at the Eldest Uncle seriously. The two of them nodded at each other then disappeared in an instant.

"Grandfather please save Brother Shua!" yelled Xiao Mei loudly.

On the other hand Lou Yue so hastily jumped from tree to tree, at first glance she looked like an obscure black shadow due to her running too fast.

"Shua hold on I'll be here soon! Like you said don't die silly!"

'Where am I? Am I in the afterlife? Am I dead again?'

Faintly heard the sound of water droplets, the longer the sound got bigger. Shua Xie opened his eyes when he felt a drop of water fall on his face.

'Where else is this? Why am I lying on the water? Is this hell or heaven.' Shua Xie turned his head left and right, in this place there was only him alone. A place so strange, cold, desolate and gripping.

'It turns out I'm dead, hais at least I died a little cooler this time.' Shua Xie chuckled softly while getting up. Shua Xie looked around so many streets, Shua Xie felt that now he was in a labyrinth.

'Is this the labyrinth of hell? Why so much?'

"Hey little girl descendant of the Sky clan, come here. Come to me." The sudden appearance of an unfamiliar voice so loudly echoing from all the labyrinthine passageways made Shua Xie startled.

"Whose voice is that!? Is there anyone else here besides me?" Shua Xie continued to turn his head left and right but there was no one, suddenly he realized this feeling was so familiar to him. The current incident reminded him of the great Master who had helped him. But this time his voice was no longer a male voice but a female voice.

"Little girl come here! Come to me!" Once again the foreign voice echoed from all the labyrinthine passageways.

"Little girl? Who does she mean little girl?" muttered Shua Xie quietly.

"Come over here, little girl! I called you!"

Shua Xie's eyebrows rose next door, Shua Xie thought maybe he was the one being summoned by the foreign voice. Shua Xie was also a little curious as to who was summoning him from within the forked labyrinth hallway.

Stepping Shua Xie entered one passageway where the foreign voice sounded clearer than the other. As Shua Xie walked the foreign voice kept calling out to him several times making Shua Xie even more curious. When Shua Xie had gone deep into the labyrinth, the voice that had been constantly calling out to him had stopped. Shua Xie also stopped when the voice stopped.

"Why not call anymore? Was the sound just an illusion? But this can't be an illusion! The traps? But it's impossible! What exactly is this place?"
