"Cang Ming, are you trying to sow discord into my relationship with Yun'er? If that's so, I'm afraid that things won't go as you want!" Qianbei Ye's aura thickened and it felt like a howling storm which could cause others' hearts to palpitate. "I trust Yun'er and I also believe that she would not be fooled even if you had masqueraded as me. However, even though I trust Yun'er, no one is allowed to slander her innocence!"

Boom!

A turbulent aura surrounded Qianbei Ye. The rocks from the mountain began to float and slammed towards the man called Cang Ming.

The man smiled arrogantly and stared coldly and disdainfully at Qianbei Ye. He raised his hand and a powerful force slammed against the rocks, causing them to turn into dust.

"Yun'er, wait for me here!"

There was an unusually serious expression on Qianbei Ye's face as he said, "He's too powerful, I might not be able to defeat him!"

"Xiao Ye!"

Gu Ruoyun clutched tightly onto Qianbei Ye's robes as her chilly eyes flashed with determination.

"I've said it before that no matter what happens, I will fight side-by-side with you!"

Qianbei Ye turned his eyes to look at Gu Ruoyun.

When he saw the determined look on the woman's face, he could not help but smile.

"Alright."

He then pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms.

"Whether we live or die in this battle, we will never be parted."

The man's voice was melodious and caused Gu Ruoyun's heart to tremble. She then gently closed her eyes.

"I'm sorry that I've dragged you down, Xiao Ye."

If I had not insisted on coming to the Deserted Snowlands, we would not have run into this mess.

"Yun'er, at the end of the day, it was I who did not realize that he had already broken out from the seal. Otherwise, I would have stopped you from the moment we had set foot into the Deserted Snowlands. You had done nothing wrong. If you had not arrived to save Zuo Shangchen, he would not have survived the next few days."

The man lowered his head and gently kissed the woman's lips. His eyes were filled with fondness and affection.

Cang Ming stood by and watched them icily. His handsome features were curled into a cold smile.

He never thought that the two of them would continue to act so affectionately even at a time like this. They were really not afraid of death!

"Get in here!"

Suddenly, Qianbei Ye pulled Zuo Shangchen and forcefully threw him towards Gu Ruoyun's side as he bellowed icily.

"Xiao Ye!"

Gu Ruoyun's body shook when she saw Qianbei Ye step back. She wanted to rush forward but an invisible wall blocked her way and caused her to stumble back.

"Xiao Ye, did you set up a formation when I wasn't paying attention?"

Gu Ruoyun finally understood the situation as she stared painfully at Qianbei Ye.

"Why are you doing this?"

Qianbei Ye fell silent. "Yun'er, I'm very selfish. I'm so selfish that I don't want you to make that sacrifice. However, I understand that you would never let me risk my life alone! I'm sorry that I can only resort to this method to stop you. I have constructed one condition in your formation, you have to wait for Zixie to awaken. You will be able to break this formation with both of your powers! Furthermore, no one from the outside can break this formation. It can only be broken from within."

"Xiao Ye!!!"

Gu Ruoyun's voice was full of agony as her clear and cold eyes slowly filled with despair. She clenched her fists as her body trembled slightly.

Qianbei Ye was afraid of gazing at Gu Ruoyun for too long for his heart might be filled with reluctance. His demonic red eyes then turned slowly towards Cang Ming.
