The Rebirth Of Ice Emperor
Chapter 4 - Exchanging the Grail
Right, Hao Ren was the one who was assigned by Bing Lian's father to kill him. Although then the Mask Sage only left the baby in the expanse of Ice Lotus Abyssal Forest flowers. In other words, Lian was the legitimate crown prince of the Kingdom of Sioris Kingdom.
Hao Ren told Lian all of this because he thought that the boy deserved to know the truth, and was ready to bear the consequences of taking his life if Bing Lian showed a little feeling of revenge.
But Lian's reply as soon as she heard how her biological parents abandoned her made Hao Ren stunned, while smiling softly at the seven-year-old.
“If indeed they do not want me and consider myself dead then let it be so”
“What? But Lian’er you are the prince who is entitled to all the treasures as well as the resources of Kingdom”
“Teacher, all these valuables are not brought to death. It will disappear in time, and now I have a place to go home. My father, I also do not want the King and Empress to be doomed. So I guess we'd better end the prince's identity here”
As soon as Hao Ren prostrated himself to beg for forgiveness of – magnitude because at the beginning of the conversation had the intention to kill Lian, he felt ashamed of himself. Bing Lian who was surprised to hunt – hastily asked the Patriach Prime Holy Lantern to rise.
On the day of the endorsement, the ten champions of the tournament were brought before the King to be introduced as Hao Ren's direct disciples. One by one go forward to greet the royal family of Seoris Kingdom.
When Lian's turn came, all pairs of eyes widened as she prostrated so deeply for so long. The highest mark of respect a child can give. “Bing Lian facing your majesty, may Your Majesty, Empress, and Princess be given a long life and always prosperous tuk for – long”.
The Queen failed to hold back her tears, however as Mother. He must have recognized the blood of his flesh, hoping to run then hug also caressed the cheek of the white-haired child, the Princess was confused to see her mother crying so she asked the reason why the mother was so.
Even the famous King of wisdom and intelligence was silent for a long time, unable to take a word out of his mouth.
“Yes, nice to meet you. Our prayers will always be with you all”
“Thank you, I said retreat” said Lian smiled meaningfully before turning around.
After the ceremony, the King asked Hao Ren to spend some time speaking with his eyes. The group of Mask Sage disciples got the title of Ten Guardian Lantern while fighting against the Demon nation. Later, when it reached the peak of cultivation. Each of them is better known by the nickname Ten Emperor.

“Lian’ge!?”
“Princess Bai Wen—woa!”
The beautiful girl who was the same age as Bing Lian ran over and then hugged her until she almost fell down, she was Bai Wen. The mere princess of the puppet King and Queen of the Seoris Kingdom, it had been ten years since Lian had become Hao Ren's main disciple.
He grew up to be a dashing young man and acquired the male designation – lotus man, not just because his name was derived from the Ice Lotus flower. His body gave off a very fragrant aroma and refreshed the time it inhaled.
Hao Ren often gave missions related to members of the Royal family to Lian, causing them to become quite close. Especially for Bai Wen, Lian had been branded as her personal bodyguard.
“Mr Princess?! Please take care of your attitude, everyone sees us”
“Depending, is Lian’gege willing to stop by dinner later? If you promise I'll let go of”
“Ahh...how yes....if there is no mission maybe I can...”.
“Really!? All right I'll wait! See you” Princess immediately leave while waving her hand.
“Oldest Brother?”
“Hmm?
“Can I also call you Lian’gege?”
“Pftt!? Uhuk! Uhuk!!!....Sister She I'm even younger than you” Lian choked on her own spit.
“I don't mind, you're Oldest Brother. I want to call you so”
“Stay only...”.

Once when Bing Lian was asked to face Hao Ren, Mask Sage smiled warmly at the twenty-year-old man before asking.
“Lian’er, your fellow-sisters have started to enter Foundation Realm. They have already ascertained the Heaven Foundation, you first reached the Forging Qi level 15. What's still holding you”
“Sorry for my greedy attitude Master, but I intend to break through the Forging level 20 and then create the Immortal Foundation”
“Forging level 20? Immortal Foundations? Hehehe...”.
“Please punish me for this stupid act Guru”
“Oh..I don't mean to laugh at you, just wonder to myself why I don't have a target like you. Honestly speaking I gave up the faltering time at Forging level 18, I support your decision Lian’er. Light up this old Sage Mask”
Bing Lian sincerely thanked Hao Ren's support, his desire to form the Immortal Foundation was inseparable from Mao Peng's message to the Spatial Ring. Within those Spirit Tools was a small bottle containing a pill called the Immortal Forging Pill. And of course Lian wants to meet the expectations of her foster father.

At the age of 25, Lian set an incredible record as the fastest practicing Cultivator after reaching Core Formation in just five years after entering Foundation Realm. What else he formed the strongest Core was the Violet Core.
The combination of the Immortal Foundation and the Violet Core made Bing Lian's abilities unable to be underestimated, the Nascent Souls would have to think twice if it was willing to make trouble for her. Other than the background of the young man was the number one Cultivaor disciple in Huawai.
One day while on a mission, Lian was confronted by a – man tattooed with a dragon. From his aura it can be known that the man is a Nascent Soul Cultivator, after speaking – talk for a while. They both seem to know each other.
Other than the ten disciples of the Mask Sage, there were several other geniuses popping up all over Huawai. One of them is this guy. He was the Black Dragon Warrior, Long Heiyan. One of the most famous Body Refining users of Thousand Southern Island.
The goal came to see Bing Lian want to see who among them is stronger, the fight happened for seven days and seven nights and ended in a series. But Long Heiyan admitted defeat because her practice level was higher.
There were a number of cunning Cultivators monitoring the fight of the two geniuses for personal gain, until finally Bing Lian and Long Heiyan worked together to finish them off. The two ended up lying tired next to each other while laughing.
Long Heiyan was initially trying to find a new challenge because in Thousand Southern Island there was nothing more interesting, so when he heard the name Lian. Without waiting for him to dart around looking for his whereabouts, who would have thought that a whole week of fighting had instead made Lian and Heiyan's relationship close.
After recuperating, Long Heiyan asked Lian if she would exchange cups of wine and become a foster brother. Bing Lian refused because she hated alcohol, so they agreed to use a cup of water. In the future the story of the friendship of the Ice Emperor and the Black Dragon King was the most popular poem of Thousand Southern Island for a very long time.
