The Ice Prison, where the Black Bird Clan holds prisoners, is divided into thirteen floors from top to bottom. With each floor, the environment inside becomes a little worse. The temperature on the first floor of the Ice Prison reached minus one hundred degrees.
In the future, if you don’t go deeper than one level, the temperature will drop by about fifty degrees.
Right, on the thirteenth floor, the temperature has reached about minus 700 degrees. The functions of all living things there will stop. The prisoners detained there can only use their own cultivation to constantly resist the cold intrusion from the outside world. Every day
Living a life worse than death.
But now, there are only a few people imprisoned in the huge ice prison. Because the Xuanniao clan is a peace-loving race and lives a life without fighting against the world, there are basically no blackbirds who will be imprisoned for violating clan rules.
Entering it, even if some tribesmen make small mistakes and are imprisoned, most of them will be released soon.
However, thousands of years ago, an assassination attempt took place within the Black Bird clan against Cai Yuexin, the next clan leader. The planner was her sister Cai Yueying. A total of ten people were involved in the matter at that time.
Six people, including three elders.
This incident shocked the entire Xuannio clan. The then clan leader Cai Yueying immediately declared that the incident was a treasonous incident, sentenced all parties involved to life imprisonment without release, and sent them to the lowest level of the ice prison, which is the second level of the ice prison.
Thirteenth floor.
In the following thousands of years, many elders suggested to Cai Yuerou that she should be more lenient, reduce the sentences of clan members who had made mistakes in the past, or move them to the upper floors of the ice prison, but Cai Yuerou gave them all.
They sternly refused and did not allow other tribesmen to visit them.
Now, Cai Yuexin is taking the initiative to go to this forbidden place of life. As soon as she entered the first floor of the ice prison, she felt an overwhelming cold air, but a hundred degrees below zero was not considered a problem for her level of cultivation.
What.
However, as Cai Yuexin went deeper into the bottom of the ice prison, she found it more difficult to withstand the low temperature in the ice prison. When she reached the tenth floor of the ice prison, she had to start using her demon power to keep out the cold.
When she reached the thirteenth floor, Cai Yuexin found that she had to mobilize a small amount of her strength to withstand the cold air in the prison. If she persisted for a while, there would be no problem, but if she wanted to live here all year round, it would be difficult.
That's enough.
As soon as she entered the entrance of the thirteenth floor, Cai Yuexin saw a scene that she would never forget. In the cell closest to her, she saw an ice sculpture, lifelike, as if it was still alive, but it was obviously gone.
breath.
Cai Yuexin couldn't help but hide her mouth and exclaimed in shock: "This is Cai Mingliu! Why is she here?!" Cai Mingliu also participated in the assassination of Cai Yuexin and was imprisoned here, but she never
Knowing this, that's why I'm so surprised.
Then she passed several cells and found that there was an ice sculpture in them. Those black birds that turned into ice sculptures were obviously frozen to death here because they were not strong enough to withstand the cold air on the thirteenth floor of the ice prison.
Watching this silently, tears quickly filled Cai Yuexin's eyes, and she shouted: "Why, why does such a cruel thing happen? Aren't we all sisters?"
"Why? Isn't it all because of you?" At this moment, an angry voice came from the cell in front.
Hearing this voice, Cai Yuexin froze on the spot and murmured: "Is it sister?"
She rushed towards the direction of the sound without hesitation, and finally found the familiar figure in a cell.
Seeing Cai Yueying again, Cai Yuexin could hardly recognize her. She had lost a lot of weight, her hair had grown to her heels, and her whole body was covered in thick fur. She was running her skills with all her strength to resist the attacks in the cave.
chill.
She looked so weak, but her eyes were still bright, blooming with a will to survive and a fierceness, just like a lone wolf running on the snowy field.
Cai Yuexin couldn't help but shout: "Sister!"
Cai Yueying looked at Cai Yuexin and sneered: "Isn't this my sister? You are not dead yet."
"Sister--" Cai Yuexin didn't know what to say for a moment. At this time, her heart was in a mess and she didn't know where to start.
She originally complained a little about her sister, why the sister who had been gentle and kind to her had done such a cruel thing to harm her in the first place. But when she saw her sister again, all the hatred disappeared inexplicably and was replaced by
It's a kind of vague distress.
"Hahaha, sister, you haven't changed at all, you are still as weak as before. I don't understand why my mother appointed you as her successor, and what courage do you have to lead our Black Bird clan?"
"Sister, I know I don't have it, and I don't want to fight with you. In my mind, I always think that you are the best candidate to succeed the patriarch, and I just want to live a carefree life under your gentle care.
That's fine, if you want to be the clan leader, just tell me, why do you need to do that to me?"
"Hahaha, my innocent sister, can you and I control whether you want to be the patriarch or not? Everything was decided the moment you were born. Before, I always thought that I was the only candidate for the patriarch, and I always strived to become a qualified
I have worked hard to become the leader of the clan, but you have sacrificed so much to easily destroy my dream. Cai Yuexin, I hate you, I have hated you deeply from the moment you were born!"
"No, my sister has always been so gentle to me in the past." "Hmph, don't you understand? I'm just pretending all this just to wait for the moment when I push you into the abyss - unfortunately, I am not as good as my mother.
I was still too young, but eventually she found out the clues and the whole thing came to light."
"I don't believe it. These are all just pretense. Has my sister really never liked me at all?" Cai Yuexin said in a daze.
Here Cai Yueying hesitated for a moment, but her eyes immediately became firm and she said: "Of course, not even a little bit, because you don't understand me at all, my ambitions, and what it takes to change the current situation of the Black Bird Tribe.
My heart, we, the Black Bird Tribe, have been staying in the secret realm, completely cut off from contact with the outside world, and living a life without fighting against the world. However, is this what everyone wants? When we live carefree,
Other races are becoming stronger
, now our Black Bird family can still rely on the bloodline of the mythical beast to gain the upper hand, but what about tens of millions of years later? I know that other races are constantly becoming stronger evolvers, but we are always stuck in our ways. In this way, our Black Bird family will
Sooner or later, the bird family will fall behind, and one of the direct consequences of such an environment is the birth of cowardly guys like you!" At this point, Cai Yueying poked Cai Yuexin between the eyebrows with her finger, scaring the latter into retreating.
He took two steps and fell to the ground.
Seeing Cai Yuexin's cowardly look, Cai Yueying was startled, then laughed loudly: "Sister, you haven't changed at all, you are as timid as a little bird."
Cai Yuexin got up from the ground again and showed a gentle smile. This made Cai Yueying a little upset and shouted: "Don't show such a disgusting expression to me, you have forgotten how I treated me."
Yours? Are you mentally retarded?"
Cai Yuexin said slowly: "Sister, I'm happy that I can finally understand your thoughts now. What you said is absolutely right. If it weren't for the assassination operation you carefully planned, I would still be in the clan today.
I might live a carefree life here, but if that were the case, I wouldn’t be able to see the splendor of the outside world, and I wouldn’t be able to succeed.
I haven't been able to meet my most beloved person for a long time. So I couldn't understand why my sister did this for a long time. And just before I returned to the clan again, I still had this idea, but just now
After I met my mother, my mind changed and I finally started to understand my sister a little bit."
After hearing her words, Cai Yueying was stunned for a long time before she said: "Humph, so what? Do you understand that there will be any change in my outcome? You are not the patriarch, you can't let me out at all, and I will have to live forever.
Stay in jail and suffer."
"Sister, don't worry, let me save you this time and let you realize your ambition." Cai Yuexin said, determination once again revealed in her beautiful eyes.
