But his theory was not entirely correct, as he was just thinking about the result and not the process before it. 

If Gao Lan Mei ever knew that he was thinking like this, she would have been very disappointed. Or she could probably make fun of him for even considering the possibility of her using the same ritual again. After all, those who wanted a large scale result needed to offer the same exchange. 

No need for her to explain as it did not take long before the inside of the s.p.a.ce they are in started to become cold. As a fire dragon, Wei Jiayi could immediately feel the lowering temperature.

Since it was a contrast to his power, of course, he immediately felt uncomfortable. Wei Jiayi also had a bad feeling about the situation. 

He felt something cold and wet fell on his forehead, and then he eventually felt more of it. It felt like ice touching his face. Raising his head, Wei Jiayi was able to confirm that it was indeed snowing!

It was even more surprising where it was coming from. The s.p.a.ce on top of their head was open, just like an extensive and wide crack through which one could see what was beyond it. 

Inside, s.p.a.ce looked clear, but the snow slowly raining in it,  fell on them as well. 

For Wei Jiayi, it was fine to snow, but when the temperature turned freezing to the point he felt like gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth, he decided to do something. 

Not because he could not take it but because, the mere fact that he was affected by the coldness, which was almost impossible most of the time, meant that Gao Lan Mei might be experiencing worse. 

On the other hand, Wei Jiayi couldn't just ignore the continuous 'Thump' sound of a beating of a heart that he kept on hearing. The rhythm though was making him nervous as well. At that moment, he almost scorned himself for being a scaredy-cat. 

Wei Jiayi released a fireball from his hand and placed it closed to Gao Lan Mei, while she continued to mutter. Her eyes still closed, her face showed a deep frown of discomfort. 

Another shocking thing was that Gao Lan Mei's brows were sweating despite the cold. "What in the world?" 

Wei Jiayi hugged Gao Lan Mei tightly with his other arm to offer his support and give a little comfort. 

The snow continued to fall on them before it turned into a blizzard. As for the others outside, they were still fighting for their lives. He could see the struggles of his friends, and it looked like their situation was very dire.   

Regardless of his friend's situation, his main priority would still be Gao Lan Mei despite him having a hard time even staying in the same s.p.a.ce as her. 

Wei Jiayi increased the flame coming out of his hand, but it was suddenly extinguished by large snow. He annoying tried multiples, but the same thing happened. With his anger flaring, he surrounded them with flame instead. 

But an unexpected thing happened as the moment he released a long whip of flame, a powerful force separated him from Gao Lan Mei! 

Wei Jiayi was thrown out from the cold s.p.a.ce and was surrounded by the black smoke. He hurriedly stood up to check on Gao Lan Mei at the same time someone loudly laughed. 

"Keke! Your man does not look dependable. I just waved my hand!"  A female voice with eerie coldness spoke. Wei Jiayi felt the pressure coming from it. 

He did not need to look for Gao Lan Mei through the darkness because the female being floating behind her was so bright that she could be noticed even from afar.  Even the fact that barely half of her form was materialised was also noticeable. 

The female had long blue hair, eyes white as snow. She wore a white robe collared with blue. Her chin leaned on Gao Lan Mei's shoulder, while her pristine arms circled his wife's stomach. 

The being gave off a commanding presence that made Wei Jiayi subconsciously gulp nervously. However, the way the woman held his wife did not sit well with him. 

"Mei Mei, get away from her!" Wei Jiayi shouted in annoyance. 

With a snort, "Hmph. How rude. Kneel!" The woman shouted commanding with authority that immediately made his knees soften, causing him to kneel unwillingly.
