"Little woman?"
The Heart Demon raised an eyebrow and immediately snapped, "You dare call me that? Aren't you always arrogant in front of others, yet acting like a little lamb now in front of your mother?"
Qin Feiyang's face turned dark as he angrily glared at the Heart Demon, "You better clarify that. When have I ever been arrogant? Don't ruin the good image I have in my mother's heart."
"You think you have a good image?"
"I'm a model student!"
The Heart Demon gazed with disdain.
Qin Feiyang's veins bulged with anger, "Do you find challenging me particularly enjoyable?"
"You got that right; it really is quite enjoyable."
The Heart Demon smirked playfully, his face full of provocation.
"Fine."
Qin Feiyang snorted, turned, and walked to his mother's side, "Mother, don't listen to his nonsense. Your son has always been very honest and composed."
"Bah!"
The Heart Demon raised his middle finger directly, walked to the woman, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Mother."
The playful interaction with Qin Feiyang dissolved his inner tension.
Qin Feiyang's face also bore a slight smile.
He wasn't one to act recklessly; naturally, he did this to ease the atmosphere and help the Heart Demon relieve inner tension.
The woman stepped forward, took the Heart Demon's hand, and laughed, "No need for formalities."
"Is this maternal love?"
The Heart Demon murmured.
The warmth radiating from the woman's hand mesmerized him.
The woman extended her arms, pulling both of them into an embrace, her face full of affection, "You are both my good children. I'm proud of you."
Qin Feiyang beamed.
The Heart Demon was awestruck.
This is a mother's embrace? So warm!
As the Heart Demon, he had never felt such warmth, let alone great maternal love.
He couldn't help but be enchanted.
Especially the woman's words, calling them her good children, completely melted his heart.
"Mother..."
The Heart Demon whispered, his hands instinctively holding his mother tighter as if fearing she would vanish the next moment.
The three embraced, true emotions flowing, while outside, the Phantom Snake Emperor and Thunder Leopard couldn't bear to interrupt.
Before long.
The old woman and others released everyone else.
Then the old woman came to the prison cell, stood beside the Phantom Snake Emperor, glanced at the mother and sons, ready to report to Qin Feiyang.
"Don't disturb them."
"They've just reunited; let them be alone for a while!"
The Phantom Snake Emperor transmitted a message.
"Okay."
The old woman nodded, then turned to the group and gestured for silence.
Everyone understood, standing silently in the corridor and prison cell.
The prison plunged into dead silence.
"Alright."
"Everyone is waiting outside; don't keep them too long."
After a moment.
The woman glanced at the old woman and others, gently patted the backs of Qin Feiyang and the Heart Demon, and smiled.
"Mm."
Qin Feiyang and the Heart Demon nodded and reluctantly left their mother's embrace.
Then.
The two looked at the iron shackles on their mother's hands and feet, their eyes flickering coldly.
"That old State Preceptor, I won't let him have peace!"
Qin Feiyang snorted coldly, drew Blue Snow, and with a clang, the shackles broke.
These shackles were made of Gravity Divine Iron, capable of sealing a creature's cultivation.
In other words.
Once bound by these shackles, no matter how strong one's cultivation, they'd become ordinary, easily manipulated.
The Heart Demon glanced at Qin Feiyang, then looked at the woman and smiled, "Mother, let's go out!"
"Alright."
The woman nodded.
Qin Feiyang and the Heart Demon, on either side, supported their mother, walking out of the prison cell.
"Greetings, Madam."
The old woman and the others immediately kneeled on one knee, respectfully calling.
The woman scanned each of them, her face full of gratification, "No need for formalities."
"Thank you, Madam."
Everyone stood, curiously observing the woman.
The woman was dignified and graceful, radiant with benevolence.
The Phantom Snake Emperor leaned to Qin Feiyang's ear, whispering, "It's time to handle business."
Qin Feiyang's eyes slightly narrowed.
The business the Phantom Snake Emperor referred to was undoubtedly the self-sealed Pseudo God.
Qin Feiyang turned to the woman, "Mother, do you know of a self-sealed Pseudo God here?"
"Pseudo God!"
The woman was startled, shaking her head, "No, where is it?"
"Lead the way."
Qin Feiyang said to the Phantom Snake Emperor.
"Alright."
The Phantom Snake Emperor nodded, turning to fly out of the prison.
Qin Feiyang smiled, "After you, Mother."
The woman furrowed her brow before quickly following.
A Pseudo God isn't trivial; it must be treated cautiously.
Suddenly.
Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed, "Mother, wait."
"What is it?"
The woman stopped, looked back at Qin Feiyang suspiciously, and the Heart Demon was also puzzled.
Qin Feiyang took out a Restoration Pill from his chest and held it out to the woman.
The woman looked at the pill, puzzled about Qin Feiyang's intent.
The Heart Demon eyed the woman's expression, angrily glaring at Qin Feiyang, "Bastard, what are you doing? Do you not even trust your mother?"
Qin Feiyang glanced at him, turning to the woman, "Circumstances compel us, hope Mother can forgive."
"Mother understands."
The woman smiled, took the Restoration Pill, and swallowed it without hesitation.
And moments passed.
The woman's appearance did not change one bit.
Qin Feiyang breathed a sigh of relief.
At times like this, he feared unexpected events.
Because in the current situation, the last thing you can afford is carelessness; one wrong step could lead to total defeat.
Swoosh!
Qin Feiyang flickered again, entering the ancient castle, and asked Wealthy Elixir King, "Do you have any more resurrection pills?"
"Yes."
"I made a lot when you asked me to refine them last time."
Wealthy Elixir King took out a Qiankun Bag, containing thousands of resurrection pills.
Qin Feiyang grabbed the Qiankun Bag and left the castle, addressing the old woman, "These are all resurrection pills; verify their identity, if there's any anomaly, kill them without mercy!"
"Yes!"
The old woman took the Qiankun Bag and responded respectfully.
Qin Feiyang looked at his mother and smiled, "Let's go!"
The woman nodded and walked outside.
Heart Demon walked to Qin Feiyang's side and asked secretly, "Are you being too cautious?"
"Given the circumstances, you can't afford not to be careful!"
Qin Feiyang sighed quietly.
Heart Demon fell silent.
Although Qin Feiyang's approach irritated him, his concerns were not unwarranted.
The woman glanced back at the two of them, full of admiration in her eyes, and asked, "Did the State Preceptor know you were coming here?"
Heart Demon laughed coldly, "He knows we came to the Sea of Reincarnation, but he doesn't know we found his lair, and his descendants have been slaughtered by us!"
"Slaughtered!"
The woman's gaze trembled, she said, "Isn't that too cruel?"
"Mother, can't you see the current situation? The State Preceptor wants to overthrow the state. Do you know their origins?"
Qin Feiyang pointed to the old woman and others.
The woman shook her head.
Qin Feiyang said, "They are death warriors cultivated by the State Preceptor; fortunately, we discovered them early and rescued them."
"Rescued?"
The woman was puzzled.
Qin Feiyang said, "It's a long story; I'll explain it to you slowly once we leave."
"Alright."
The woman nodded.
Boom!
At that moment, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted in one of the prisons.
"Huh?"
Qin Feiyang and Heart Demon raised their eyebrows and looked over, seeing a burly man emerge from the crowd, full of murderous intent.
"So there really was a spy hidden!"
Qin Feiyang's gaze turned icy, and he shouted, "Render him useless!"
Whoosh!
Thunder power rolled, and Thunder Leopard, like an apparition, dashed into the prison, brutally shattering the burly man's Qi Sea with a single paw.
"Ah…"
The man cried out miserably, crashing into the wall behind.
"Qin Feiyang, don't celebrate too early; one day you will die at the hands of the ancestor, and the Great Qin Empire will be renamed…"
The burly man glared venomously at Qin Feiyang and shouted.
"Renamed?"
Qin Feiyang and Heart Demon looked at each other, their eyes full of mockery.
"Thunder Leopard, handle it."
Qin Feiyang coldly threw down this sentence and, along with Heart Demon, accompanied his mother, following the Ghostly Snake Emperor out.
When they exited the prison door, the Ghostly Snake Emperor stopped.
"Where is it?"
Qin Feiyang scanned the dark path ahead, frowned, and asked.
"Right here."
The Ghostly Snake Emperor looked toward the left stone wall of the prison door.
Qin Feiyang and Heart Demon raised their heads to scrutinize the stone wall, which seemed seamless, except for an oil lamp hanging above it; nothing else could be found.
"Watch me."
The Ghostly Snake Emperor chuckled, floated up, and gently pushed the oil lamp.
The oil lamp could actually move!
Boom!
As the oil lamp moved, the previously seamless stone wall immediately cracked open, and then slowly opened.
A biting cold stream suddenly surged out.
"Such a hidden secret door and mechanism, you can actually find it?"
Heart Demon looked at the Ghostly Snake Emperor in surprise.
The Ghostly Snake Emperor smiled proudly, boasting, "You should know who this emperor is."
"Then how exactly did you find it?"
Heart Demon frowned.
"It's a secret."
The Ghostly Snake Emperor smiled mysteriously.
"It's not really a secret."
"Ghostly snakes not only have no aura from birth and can change their skin color, but they're also extremely sensitive to the temperature of their surroundings."
"Even though this secret door can isolate the cold stream inside, it can still sense its presence due to its special abilities."
"Once it senses an anomaly, finding the secret door and mechanism naturally isn't difficult."
The woman smiled.
"So that's how it is."
Heart Demon realized.
The Ghostly Snake Emperor's pupils contracted, admiring, "The mistress is indeed knowledgeable."
The woman smiled and shook her head, then turned to look at the secret door.
The secret door was already half open, and the surging cold stream was even more terrifying, forming a layer of frost on the eyebrows and hair of all three.
Inside was indeed a deep freezer!
And it was very big!
In the center of the freezer, a magnificent ice sculpture stood!
The ice sculpture was crystal clear, clearly revealing an old man with black hair trapped inside!
"How could it be him?"
The woman's gaze trembled slightly, her face filled with disbelief upon seeing the black-haired old man.
"Mother, do you know him?"
Qin Feiyang and Heart Demon looked at the woman, surprised and puzzled.
