Chapter 442: Saintess of the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan

Thinking about this item, Xiao Ming's heart couldn't help but stir with excitement because it was one of the main ingredients for refining the Di Tier Pill, Resurrection Pill.

The ingredients required for Di Tier Pills were all rare and precious treasures. Even the auxiliary materials were extremely hard to find, not to mention the main ingredients.

Until now, Xiao Ming hadn't even heard a single piece of information about those main ingredients, let alone collected them.

Hearing about the Eleven-Grade Snow Leaf White Lotus, he couldn't help but feel delighted.

Although he needed the lotus seed of the Twelve-Grade Snow Leaf White Lotus, not the Eleven-Grade, they were still somewhat related, right?

With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Ming lowered his head and looked at the battlefield once again.

He noticed that the situation of the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox was becoming extremely critical. Bound by the icy frost thorns, she could hardly put up an effective resistance.

Xiao Ming wasn't surprised by this outcome. Despite her impressive display earlier, taking on a dozen opponents, it was only because they wanted to capture her alive, not kill her outright.

Not everyone had cultivated the "Rise of the Twin Spirits" like he had, allowing him to easily defeat several opponents of the same level.

As the final strike was about to fall, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's Saintess finally fell in defeat.

Seeing her on the verge of being captured, Xiao Ming finally took action.

A majestic aura descended upon the battlefield like an ancient and overwhelming force, akin to an ancient awakened dragon, bringing with it unmatched pressure!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

On the snowy ground, all the Glass Serpent Clan's experts were so terrified by the sudden surge of this newcomer's overwhelming aura that their legs turned weak, and they knelt down in the face of the spreading pressure.

'This aura...'

Hu Yu, who had been filled with despair on her face just moments ago, was stunned as she looked up towards the sky. A hint of shock appeared on her pretty face. She never expected that while they were fighting, there was such a powerful expert hiding nearby.

This kind of aura was something she had only felt from her own Ancestor.

'Damn it... Who on earth is it?'

The leader of the Glass Serpent Clan was utterly astonished. He wanted to resist the pressure and stand up, but his legs seemed to be uncontrollable and weak.

Where did this powerful figure, whose aura alone could oppress him to this extent, come from? It didn't seem like a member of the Wind and Snow Sacred Temple.

Because he was concerned about their mission, he raised his head and shouted loudly, "I am Xue Leng, an elder of the Glass Serpent Clan. Today, we are here to settle an old grudge with the Wind and Snow Sacred Temple. If our actions have disturbed you, it's our fault. I hope you, esteemed senior, can forgive us."

"We hope that you won't intervene in this matter, and when it is resolved, we, the Glass Serpent Clan, will certainly express our gratitude!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Yu became anxious.

Although she didn't understand why this mysterious figure suddenly intervened, it seemed to be in her favor, as he had interrupted the Glass Serpent Clan's actions.

She had no strength left to resist now. If this mysterious expert was persuaded by the Glass Serpent Clan and left, she would undoubtedly be captured!

In her desperation, Hu Yu shouted, "Senior, I am the Saintess of the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan from the Wind and Snow Sacred Temple. The Nine-Tailed Fox Saint is my Ancestor. I implore you to lend a helping hand. The Glass Serpent Clan is deceitful and cunning; they ambushed me. Please don't be deceived by them."

As her voice trailed off, she suddenly noticed a very young man appearing before her.

The young man exuded a dignified and graceful presence, radiating a certain charm. His eyes were deep and clear, devoid of any impurities, as though they held the world's secrets. His long black hair flowed down his shoulders, giving off a faint luster, and his skin was as clear as jade. He was exceptionally attractive, not resembling a senior with profound cultivation but rather a young nobleman out for leisure.

Even though the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan was known for producing good-looking men and women, Hu Yu, who had seen many handsome men, couldn't help but be stunned upon seeing him.

Xiao Ming cast a fleeting glance at the stupefied fox woman beside him.

Though her attire wasn't particularly flamboyant, her demeanor was extremely enchanting.

Her large, beaming, endearing eyes were filled with mist and exuded a seductive aura. Her delicate mouth corners were turned up, and her red lips were slightly parted, as if inviting a kiss.

She was a woman who exuded enchantment from the depths of her being, constantly tempting men and capturing their hearts. It seemed she truly lived up to her title as the Saintess of the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox Saint? Are you a direct bloodline descendant of the Nine-Tailed Fox Saint? And he is a Dou Saint?"

The term "Saint" was naturally used to address a Dou Saint-level powerhouse.

However, even a Half-Saint could carry the title "Saint," though few people would boast about it. Still, it was best to clarify and gather information about his strength.

Facing Xiao Ming's inquiry, Hu Yu snapped back to her senses and nodded, saying, "I am the direct descendant of our Ancestor, and also the Saintess of the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan. As for our Ancestor, he is indeed a Dou Saint. As for the specific star level, I'm not aware of it."

As she spoke, Hu Yu observed Xiao Ming's expression and noticed that he remained unchanged, evidently not concerned about the matter.

She started to speculate in her mind. The person in front of her must have come from outside the Fallen Spirit Ice Source, which explained why he had limited knowledge about their Nine-Tailed Ice Fox Clan.

Moreover, being at such a high level of strength and yet so young, he must be some kind of old monster who has mastered the art of preserving his youth, just like her Ancestor.

While Xiao Ming and Hu Yu were conversing, Xue Leng, who had been kneeling on the ground, couldn't remain silent any longer and hurriedly spoke up, "Senior, our Glass Serpent Clan..."

"That's enough. I know your Glass Serpent Clan is formidable, capturing a nine-star Dou Venerate and having a Half-Saint set up an ambush nearby," Xiao Ming waved his hand, interrupting the man's words.

As Xiao Ming's words fell, a white-haired and white-bearded old man stepped out from the void, his face pale with cold sweat.

"As expected, I can't hide from you..."

"Lord Saint, this is a grudge between our Glass Serpent Clan and the Wind and Snow Sacred Temple. I beseech you to consider our Glass Serpent Ancestor's face and refrain from intervening any further..." The old man hurriedly spoke.

Seeing the old man, Hu Yu's enchanting face once again displayed astonishment. She hadn't expected that, aside from the seemingly young expert before her, there was another powerful figure watching from the sidelines.

Evidently, the Glass Serpent Clan had come prepared!

As for the term "Lord Saint" used by the old man, Hu Yu didn't seem surprised; after all, she had already guessed as much.

Her nervous gaze remained fixed on Xiao Ming, hoping that this Saint would protect her.

"Is the Glass Serpent Clan's Ancestor also a Dou Saint?" Xiao Ming asked with a smile.

"Yes, the Ancestor has been a Dou Saint for many years," the old man replied.

'I didn't expect that there would be so many Dou Saints in the Fallen Spirit Ice Source. It is secluded from the outside world, and such information is challenging to pass on to the outside.' Xiao Ming thought to himself. Of course, this didn't mean there were no hidden Dou Saints in the Central Plains; they simply wouldn't come out without reason.

The Dou Saints in the Fallen Spirit Ice Source usually kept a low profile and remained secluded, making it difficult for others to obtain information.

The fact that they appeared this time was probably because of the Eleven-Grade Snow Leaf White Lotus, which was indeed worthy of catching the attention of Dou Saints.
