Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 487 - 484 The Ambush at the Ice and Snow Temple
Chapter 487: Chapter 484: The Ambush at the Ice and Snow Temple Chapter 487: Chapter 484: The Ambush at the Ice and Snow Temple High above, Chu Xin and his companions appeared out of thin air.
Xiao Ling’er looked down at the boundless Ice Lake beneath their feet and said with a smile, “Water Dragon Lake, we’ve arrived.”
“Sister Ling’er, that’s not right, shouldn’t it be called Ice Dragon Lake?”
Chu Xin looked at the snowy white frost and tilted her little head, speaking with confusion.
“Right, it should be called Ice Dragon Lake.” Chu Chen also nodded his little head repeatedly, echoing in agreement.

“It must be the work of the people from the Ice and Snow Temple; they should have made it to the very heart of Water Dragon Lake by now.”
Zhu Laojiu looked up at the distance, his tone grave as he spoke, “We need to hurry over there. By the looks of it, there are quite a few people from the Ice and Snow Temple. If we’re slow, the Water Dragon Crown might be snatched away by them.”
Jin Lao San hesitated for a moment before saying, “Since so many people from the Ice and Snow Temple have come, shouldn’t we wait until the people from the Aotian Empire are gathered before we go? Otherwise, just with the few of us, it’s impossible to snatch the Water Dragon Crown from the hands of dozens or hundreds of Ice and Snow Temple disciples.”
“That makes sense!”
He Lao Wu nodded in agreement.
Zhu Laojiu turned his head to look at Chu Xin and Chu Chen, saying, “With these two little ones here, who are worth twenty Half-step God Disciples each, we are not without chances of winning.”
Wang Lanxi’s brows furrowed slightly; she didn’t want her granddaughter and grandson to take such risks. Just as she was about to speak out against it, she saw Chu Xin and Chu Chen had already flown out and landed on the Ice Lake.
“Giggle, it’s still the icy coolness that feels comfortable, just like being back at Big Stone Lake.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen were hopping and skipping on the Ice Lake, extremely excited.
“Granny, Sister Ling’er, hurry up.”
Chu Xin turned back and waved her hand before lying down on the ice and pulling forcefully with her two white little hands pressed against the surface.
Whoosh!
Their little bodies shot out like arrows released from a bow, vanishing from everyone’s sight in an instant.
“These two little ones really don’t let people worry.”
Wang Lanxi shook her head and hurriedly followed after them.
Although the two little ones were much stronger than her, in her heart, they were still just three-year-old babies; she was always anxious if they were out of sight for even a moment.
“Let’s go.”
Xiao Ling’er and the others also quickly gave chase.
“Giggle! It’s been so long since I’ve had this much fun.”
From a distance, the pure and joyous laughter of the two little ones could still be heard.
“It’s great to be just a little baby, carefree, and if there are any troubles, they’re quickly forgotten.”
Xiao Ling’er looked envious. As the daughter of the Heavenly Sword Divine Domain’s Lord, from the moment she was born, she was destined to be mentioned in the same breath as the Heavenly Pride of other Divine Domains.
Over the years, she had constantly been cultivating without the slightest slack, and the pressure she was under could only be imagined.
“Sister Ling’er, if you had their monstrous talent, you could also be carefree all the time,” said Jin Lao San.
“Scram!”
Xiao Ling’er glared at him, saying irritably, “Jin Lao San, nobody thinks you’re mute if you don’t speak.”
“Hehe!”
Jin Lao San chuckled sheepishly, no longer speaking.
He Lao Wu pointed at him and said with a feeling like hating iron for not becoming steel, “Your mouth really deserves a smack.”
“I didn’t mean to upset her; I was just stating a fact,” Jin Lao San muttered.
Hearing this, He Lao Wu also sighed and said, “Yes, how great it would be to have their kind of monstrous talent. Then there would be no need for such strenuous cultivation.”
Zhu Laojiu, listening to the conversation between the two, once again revealed a glint of strange light in the depths of his eyes, and murmured to himself, “Yes, how wonderful it would be to possess such monstrous talent.”
“Zhu Laojiu, what are you muttering about?”
Xiao Ling’er had not heard clearly and asked with confusion.
“It’s nothing,”
Zhu Laojiu shook his head and said, “We are about to reach the core area of Water Dragon Lake; be cautious. It’s possible that people from the Ice and Snow Temple have set up ambushes on the periphery to attack others who want to snatch the crown of the Water Dragon Emperor.”
“Yes!”
Xiao Ling’er, Wang Lanxi, Jin Lao San, and He Lao Wu, among others, all nodded their heads and became secretly vigilant.
Bang Bang!
Just at that moment, two loud thumps were heard from the ice ahead.
“Huh? Has someone been ambushed?”
Xiao Ling’er and the others perked up and quickly accelerated their flight towards the sound.
After getting closer, everyone felt a mix of amusement and embarrassment.
They saw two small holes appear in a towering ice mountain, and within that transparent mountain, two little figures were embedded motionless, blinking their innocent large eyes.
Buzz!
The Divine Runes within the two little ones flowed, and a faint golden light radiated from their bodies. Sword Qi and Sword Light appeared respectively around the brother and sister.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the massive ice mountain shattered under the bombardment of the Sword Light and Sword Qi, breaking into countless pieces that shot in all directions.
“Giggle, this is so fun.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen landed steadily, dusted the frost off their bodies, and revealed joyful smiles on their faces.
Wang Lanxi and Xiao Ling’er, among others, were speechless. Only these two little ones had such strong physical bodies; had it been any other children, they might have instantly turned into a mush.
Bang Bang Bang!
Just then, the ice chunks that flew forward seemed to hit an invisible wall, shattering instantly.
At the same time, ripples appeared in the void where the ice struck, and figures began to reveal themselves.
“It’s people from the Ice and Snow Temple, be careful!”
Seeing this, Zhu Laojiu’s expression changed, and he immediately went on guard.
Xiao Ling’er and the others were startled as well. So many people had been hidden here, and they had detected nothing.
Had it not been for the two little toddlers accidentally colliding with the ice mountain and, in their struggle to break free, causing the ice to hit the Barrier and disrupt it, they might have already carelessly charged in.
Although they didn’t know what kind of ambush lay ahead, it definitely wouldn’t be simple.
“Yah! There are people here.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen also noticed the cultivators in the sky wearing snow-white clothes and were taken aback.
“When did they appear?”
“I don’t know, I didn’t see anyone just now.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen were full of confusion and curiosity.
Meanwhile, those from the Ice and Snow Temple who had just revealed themselves were also dumbfounded.
The Barrier they had laid out had excellent concealment on this ice lake, and even true Divine Disciples might struggle to discover it. But it had one weakness: the Barrier’s defenses were poor.
As long as the approaching people didn’t detect them, they surely wouldn’t attack randomly, and therefore would remain unaware.
With this Barrier, they had already ambushed several groups of people, and each time it was a sure success.
They never imagined that this time, it would be broken in such an absurd manner by two troublemaking kids.
