Three months later...

The following day, two figures could be seen seated in the courtyard enjoying the scenery brought about by the flower garden.

The two were Noah and Xia Qingyue. Noah had decided to divulge some information to Xia Qingyue and also in the process, improve her cultivation conditions.

"I know the reason for your cold and emotionless personality," Noah stated calmly as he looked at Xia Qingyue.

Xia Qingyue was flabbergasted by Noah's declaration. She knew the reason for her behavioral change. But what could she have done when it was the only power she could acquire at that moment?

When her master Chu Yueli had introduced her to the core cultivation art of Frozen Cloud Asgard, The Frozen Cloud Arts, she eagerly cultivated it. Even the restrictions it had didn't bother her. What could the relationships between men and women have meaning to her who was pursuing the profound way? She needed that power to realize her intentions of finding her mother who had disappeared in the early stages of her life.

"I know that you are already a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Asgard. The main cultivation technique that you are currently practicing is incomplete and flawed. The technique itself is quite detrimental to your lifespan. Continuous usage makes cold energy to be deeply etched into your bones making you feel uncomfortable at night. Even though it boosts your overall features and increases your appeal, with time it will slowly suppress your emotions and numb your feelings. Thus the cold and emotionless you normally possess," Noah explained carefully while observing her reaction.

Xia Qingyue digested this information despite the shock registered in her mind. Everything Noah said about the Frozen Cloud Arts was terrifyingly true. She would sometimes experience cold episodes at night but she would always ignore them. She was extremely determined to continue practicing the technique despite the cost of foregoing her emotions. That was what led to the rift with her current family. A sorrowful look appeared on her beautiful face. She couldn't just switch her cultivation technique to a new one right?

Noah naturally observed the defeated look on her face. He could guess what she was thinking. That was why he was there. He then continued,

"Female practitioners of Frozen Cloud arts are advised not to engage in sexual affairs with male practitioners in fear of losing all their yin energy hence making them lose their cultivation. I know those were the teaching of the Frozen Cloud Asgard. Well, it is correct since your technique concentrates more yin energy in the female body and it will only benefit the male cultivator."

Xia Qingyue blushed when she heard Noah talking about sexual matters. She didn't want to disturb his explanation so she just looked at him in silence despite the discomfort she was feeling.

"Also I know the founder of Frozen Cloud Asgard. The technique she created for the sect was just a derivative of the main cultivation art from where she comes from," Noah smoothly lied, his face without an ounce of shameful expression. You could have thought he was acquaintances with the Frozen Cloud Asgard founder - someone he had never met.

"But our founder is proclaimed to be dead. She had been dead for a very long time," Xia Qingyue could no longer keep calm when she heard that the supposedly dead founder of her sect was alive.

"She's alive and kicking back in the Realm of the Gods."

Those words further increased the shock on her face. But what she concentrated much on were the words 'Realm of the Gods' - the fabled place her mother might have disappeared to. She extremely wondered about the identity that Noah had.

The shocking information Noah had told her was too important for her sect and it would stir a major commotion if not handled well.

"Is there a way to help me?" Xia Qingyue looked at Noah with hopeful eyes. She had a feeling that this man could naturally help her. She didn't want her lifespan to continue decreasing before she could even find her dearest mother.

Seeing the hopeful gaze of Xia Qingyue, Noah decided to raise her spirits a little bit.

"Of course, there is a way. There are two options that I have and you need to choose one of them."

Xia Qingyue's interest was naturally piqued by the two options. Even though she didn't know what methods Noah had in store for her, she wouldn't be picky about it as long it helped her in the long run.

"I don't care as long it can help me. I trust in whatever method you would use," Xia Qingyue modestly replied.

Noah was surprised by her words.

'This girl has already developed so much trust in me,' he thought while smiling.

He then proceeded to tell her the options she had, "First you either switch to a new cultivation technique which means starting all over again, or I just improve your current cultivation technique to a degree that will not be harmful to your lifespan or health. "

Xia Qingyue on hearing the explanation had already chosen her option.

Seeing her expression, Noah knew she had chosen her option.

"I will be extremely grateful if you improve my current cultivation technique," Xia Qingyue said with a resolute expression on her face. She didn't know why she felt that whatever improvement Noah will make in her arts would bring tremendous benefits to her. Seeing his methods of traveling and way of doing mysterious things, she held an amount of cemented admiration for him. Also, she felt after the events of the previous day, she could easily trust him.

"I see you have made quite a perfect choice for yourself," Noah just smiled at her which earned him a breathtaking blush. It seems the intimacy between them was elevated and only another step awaited them to seal the deal.

Noah had never created a cultivation technique so this would have been his first time doing so.

"Give me your technique," Noah demanded, and Xia Qingyue proceeded to avail her sect's core art.

Noah went through the Frozen Cloud arts and due to his enhanced intelligence and thought process, he could easily deduce the whole technique. Through it, he was also able to comprehend Ice laws, which were just a variation of the Water Laws. His instant comprehension seemed monstrous. Though he wasn't able to have complete comprehension, it was just a matter of time before he was done with it. He had a perfect solution that would surely cover up most of his law mastery, especially elemental laws. He just needed the Evil God's drop of blood. Complete analysis of the blood would raise his elemental proficiency to a whole new level.

His deductive capabilities were extremely fast as his mind quickly came up with a new supreme technique.

[ Supreme Ice Goddess Immortal Codex ]

This was the technique that he came up with. It still had room for improvement as he had only made it based on a rudimentary understanding of the Ice laws. But it was still better compared to the Frozen Cloud Arts, heck, he even had a feeling it was better than the [ Ice Phoenix God Investiture Canon ], which had a harsh requirement for one to possess the Ice Phoenix Bloodline. When he has completely grasped the Water Laws he would simply make the [ Supreme Ice Goddess Immortal Codex] more perfect for Xia Qingyue. A technique that would be more suitable for her as Noah believed it would not pose a problem to someone who has the Nine Profound Exquisite Body and Heart of Snow Glazed Glass.

"This would naturally support you until you reach the Sovereign Profound Realm," Noah said with a content smile as he stared at Xia Qingyue.

Xia Qingyue had a questioning look on her face. Did he already create a new technique, it has only been a few seconds? She did not want to imagine how fast it was just done.

Gosh! Would he still be human? She questioned herself.

Noah naturally could guess her train of thoughts. Who could blame him though? His mental power was beyond genius level.

Noah inched closer to Xia Qingyue who was seated next to him. What he wanted to do was to transfer the memory of the new technique. He could have easily used his finger to just send it into her head but where was the fun in that?

"Qingyue, bring your face closer to mine so that I send the technique via memory transfer," Noah softly coaxed her.

Xia Qingyue although reluctant still followed Noah's words under his coercion. Their foreheads touched and they could easily hear each other's breath sounds. Xia Qingyue had her eyes downcast not daring to even spare Noah a glance.

This was what Noah wanted. Simple touching here and there would slowly make the beauty more comfortable in the later stages. He was preparing for the moment when their physical contact would naturally increase.

He easily transferred the technique which made the beauty shocked when she skimmed over the details of the technique. Without even thanking Noah, she rushed to her room to start a cultivation session. Noah was just left there dumbstruck.

"Is she some sort of cultivation maniac?" Noah muttered to himself and later on chuckled. He already knew the reason for her unrest to immediately start cultivating.

With nothing to do, Noah decided to visit the Xia Clan Library to read techniques even if they were just basic ones or low-quality ones. He didn't need permission as he could easily teleport there without anyone noticing.

The following days to come were naturally uneventful as apart from Xia Qingyue cultivation sessions, the two spent time together and enjoyed each other's company. Noah could easily touch the beauty anywhere except for the important areas. He had already planned when he would cross the bridge.

In a blink of an eye, three months passed just like that. In that period, he had also sought out the marriage issue agreement with the Xiao Clan. He didn't want any unnecessary drama so he flexed his aura to keep out the natural and typical troublemakers. He wasn't stingy and just gave out some benefits to those old foggies. He didn't bother to interact with the supposed reincarnation of the Ancestral Goddess, Xiao Lingxi. He had to be careful around her.

Eventually,the long-awaited day for him had naturally arrived.The reincarnation of the Azure Cloud Continent Yun Che with the Heavenly treasures he naturally needed - Sky Poison Pearl and Mirror of Samsara.

He knew Xiao Che was already bedridden. The sequence of events to follow was just predictable. Also, he had to wait for a certain Jasmine.

With a meaningful smile on his handsome face, he teleported from his room.
