After thinking it through, Ye Ruxue made up her mind and turned to look at Hu Sanlang, "Is what he said true?"
"No... how could it be! How could I do such a thing?"
Under Ye Ruxue’s gaze, Hu Sanlang shook his head guiltily.
Ye Ruxue wasn’t really asking; she had already witnessed everything just now. She just needed an excuse to strike.
At this moment, Jin Ni’er shouted angrily, "You still dare to say no! Just now, you said many evil things and even talked about what you’d do to us! It’s absolutely vile!"
Halfway through, she looked pitifully at Ye Ruxue: "Sister Ye, please stand up for me!"
With this, Hu Sanlang and his companions’ expressions changed drastically.
Even though Ye Ruxue’s face showed a slight change, everyone could distinctly feel that her gaze became even colder.
"Boss... why should we be afraid of her?"
At this moment, a Cyan Robe Disciple felt a lot of pressure and couldn’t help but speak up.
Hu Sanlang, tense with fear, found his expression twisted.
Originally, he intended to endure, but seeing Ye Ruxue’s expression made him angry.
Why do you, as a woman, dare to stand on the moral high ground and accuse me?
This is the Secret Realm, a place disconnected from the outside world.
I could kill all of you here, and it wouldn’t matter!
Thinking of this, Hu Sanlang went mad and shouted with a twisted face: "Ye Ruxue, who do you think you are to question me! I’ll rape you and make you my slave!"
Hu Sanlang thought these words would anger Ye Ruxue.
However, he was wrong.
Ye Ruxue’s expression didn’t change, she just softly opened her lips: "Very well."
In her words, a layer of cold air surrounded her, penetrating the skin. The nearby Cyan Robe Disciples only felt an all-encompassing chill, their bodies nearly unresponsive.
And as for Hu Sanlang, looking down, he was horrified to find frost forming on his feet.
"No!"
Hu Sanlang shouted in terror, trying to step back, but the frost on his feet spread quickly, reaching his waist in a blink.
His lower body was incapacitated, fixed in place.
"Ye Ruxue! You can’t do this!"
In Hu Sanlang’s terrified shouts, the frost halted at his neck, and his hands were similarly trapped.
The others witnessing this scene were all deeply frightened.
"That’s the Ice Attribute Inner Strength? It’s truly terrifying!"
"Yeah, Hu Sanlang had no chance to react, turned into an ice sculpture just like that?"
"But don’t be envious, being this impressive requires deep Inner Strength, ordinary people can’t even project their Inner Strength externally, yet Ye Ruxue directly transformed hers into a domain."
"Awesome! She’s indeed my goddess!"
Amidst the astonished discussions, the other Cyan Robe Disciples fled one after the other, fearing to suffer Hu Sanlang’s fate.
Poor Hu Sanlang, enduring the icy torment, was nailed there.
"Ye Ruxue, I was wrong, please spare me!"
This time, Hu Sanlang didn’t dare to jump anymore, showing a pleading expression.
Ye Ruxue didn’t agree, coldly saying: "Your lower body’s desires are too heavy. Now, I will strip you of that privilege, do you have any objection?"
"No objection, no objection!" Hu Sanlang replied without thinking.
"Then be frozen continuously."
"No no no! I object!" If not for his lower body being out of direct control, Hu Sanlang would have pissed himself in fear. If I’m frozen like this continuously, won’t I freeze to death?
"If you don’t want to be frozen, you can die."
After Ye Ruxue’s bland words, a murderous intent enveloped Hu Sanlang’s entire body. He mentally collapsed and started screaming miserably: "Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! I surrender! Ice me, please!"
Poor Hu Sanlang, actually begging others to freeze him, this miserable situation, elicited silent sympathy from many.
Having dealt with Hu Sanlang, Ye Ruxue turned her gaze to Qin Hao, saying nothing.
Qin Hao maintained a slight smile, though internally he marveled.
Was that really Inner Strength Ye Ruxue exhibited just now?
Qin Hao didn’t think so because, even if Ye Ruxue’s Inner Strength was profound, it shouldn’t render Hu Sanlang, a skilled fighter, utterly helpless.
The reason was nothing other than Ye Ruxue not showcasing Inner Strength just now.
Could it be... Spiritual Qi?
With this hypothesis, Qin Hao couldn’t help but sigh in amazement.
"Ye Ruxue actually has Spiritual Qi too? Interesting."
Thinking so, Qin Hao spoke, "Xiao Xue’xue, thank you for removing the trouble for me."
Ye Ruxue raised her eyebrows slightly, "This is in thanks for helping me catch the peeping thief the other day."
In this sentence, she deliberately emphasized the tone, clearly implying something.
How could Qin Hao not understand her meaning, laughing loudly: "You’re welcome, serving justice for the people by outing a hypocrite like Young Master Yuxu is my duty!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
"So he is the righteous Qin Hao?"
"He aided Ye Ruxue by pointing out Young Master Yuxu. No wonder Ye Ruxue favors him!"
"Wow! He stood up for justice and righteousness, not even afraid of Young Master Yuxu. Such courage is truly admirable, no wonder Ye Ruxue helps him!"
Amidst the echoing buzz of conversation, Qin Hao couldn’t help but feel overjoyed inside.
Ye Ruxue, on the other hand, frowned slightly, as if displeased.
The real thief who peeked on her became a hero, while Young Master Yuxu had to bear the blame out of nowhere.
Truthfully, Ye Ruxue felt a slight sympathy for Young Master Yuxu.
But it was only sympathy. If she had to come out and clarify the facts, she’d rather not.
"You all, are you going to the Immortal Mansion together? Shall we go in together?"
Ye Ruxue, having collected her thoughts, spoke to Qin Hao.
Whoa!
Ye Ruxue’s words again shocked the surrounding people.
"The goddess actually invited Qin Hao to join her?"
"Oh my God! If I knew there was such a privilege, I would have risked my life to accuse Young Master Yuxu back then!"
"This Qin Hao, I’m so envious I could die!"
In the eyes of the crowd, Ye Ruxue’s invitation was as exhilarating as winning a prize.
But Qin Hao shook his head: "Thank you, Xiao Xue’xue, for your kind offer, but our Power is meager, we’d rather not burden you."
What? Did Qin Hao just refuse?
Once again, the crowd was left dumbfounded.
This guy actually refused the goddess’s invite?
Is he out of his mind!
Amid the crowd’s internal wails, Qin Hao was breaking into a cold sweat inwardly: "This woman inviting me must be looking for a chance to get revenge. With her strength so formidable, if I let my guard down, she might really turn me into an ice sculpture."
Imagining the cruel things Ye Ruxue might do to him, Qin Hao certainly chose to refuse.
On the other side, Ye Ruxue was not surprised by Qin Hao’s answer.
She turned to look at Jin Ni’er, the corners of her mouth curling into a slight smile: "Jin Ni’er, do you want to come with me?"
