Chapter 408: Twin Half-Saints

Once the pills were refined, Xiao Ming wasted no time and asked Qing Yi to take them to the location of Sound Valley's Ancestors.

After traversing a large part of Sound Valley, they arrived in front of a luxurious palace.

Several guards were stationed outside, dressed in armor, and the leader of the guards had a graceful figure concealed beneath the attire. Her short hair was neatly arranged, and her countenance appeared stern.

Her sharp eyes swept over the group, but when she saw Qing Yi approaching, she quickly bowed.

"Valley Master!"

"Rise. Open the palace doors."

"Yes!"

She gestured to the guards behind her, who were all poised and elegant. Two girls immediately responded in unison. They each took out half of an exquisite jade plaque and joined them together, placing the combined plaque on the palace doors.

A majestic aura surged through the plaques, accompanied by the creaking of gears and the sound of machinery. The palace doors trembled and slowly opened before their eyes.

In the instant the doors opened, a bone-chilling and visible aura of intense cold seeped out through the cracks.

The female disciples guarding the entrance retreated quickly, fear and trepidation visible on their faces. Their bodies even trembled slightly, as if they had come face to face with a ferocious beast or a raging flood, inspiring awe in anyone who saw them. Only the female leader's expression remained relatively unchanged.

'Hmm, this cold poison is truly ferocious. No wonder it requires so many guards. But for Xian'er, it should be good nourishment.' Xiao Ming observed the situation and pondered inwardly.

The cold air had little effect on Qing Yi. She turned her head and looked at the Sound Valley members behind her, softly saying, "I will enter with Mr. Xiao Ming. You all wait here."

"Yes."

"You can wait here as well. Xian'er, come with me." Xiao Ming said to his companions. Then, he turned to Qing Yi.

"Xian'er has a special physique, which might be helpful in resolving the cold poison."

"In that case, we will trouble Miss Xian'er later." Qing Yi was somewhat surprised but had no objections. She led the way and stepped into the palace. After Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian followed inside, the doors slowly closed.

Outside the palace, Qing Lin and Venerable Tian Huo were led to nearby accommodations to rest.

...

Entering through the palace doors, they were greeted by a dense white mist. The chilling aura surged and flowed within the mist, casting an eerie and terrifying atmosphere under the pale illumination.

The palace was eerily silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. The only sound was the "clack, clack, clack" of their footsteps, which made the situation even more unsettling.

Qing Yi walked ahead, with Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian following closely behind. They traversed through the bewildering white mist, feeling the bone-piercing cold continuously assaulting their bodies. Fortunately, all three of them were high-star Dou Venerates, so the cold air had little effect on them.

After a short while, Qing Yi paused her steps and said, "We've arrived!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ming immediately looked ahead. Through the layers of curtains, he faintly saw the figures of two voluptuous women sitting cross-legged on the same jade bed. In Xiao Ming's perception, these two women were the sources of the chilling aura within the palace, exuding an extreme yin and coldness.

As if hearing Qing Yi's voice, the two women behind the curtains awakened, akin to dormant dragons stirring. Two tremendous and terrifying auras gradually permeated the palace.

Xiao Ming felt a sudden heaviness in his body, and the speed at which his Dou Qi circulated slowed down.

'This aura... they are indeed Half-Saints!'

"You've arrived, Little Qing Yi... Huh? Where in our Sound Valley did this man come from? His strength has even reached the Dou Venerate realm..."

A gentle voice rang out, followed by a hint of surprise upon sensing Xiao Ming's presence.

Qing Yi arrived at this place with a much more solemn expression. She respectfully spoke up and explained, "Ancestors, this is Master Xiao Ming, the Master Alchemist of Pill Tower. He has refined two highest-grade Nine Revolving Sun Returning Pills for our Sound Valley. He has come to assist in removing the Ice Dragon Scorpion's cold poison. As part of the reward I offered, I included the specific location of the Endless Spirit Ice."

"The highest-grade Nine Revolving Sun Returning Pills?" Another voice, similar to the first one, sounded, but with even more solemnity. An alchemist capable of refining such pills could already stand on equal footing with them.

"You have done well, Little Qing Yi. I will inform him about the information regarding the Endless Spirit Ice. However, our information is incomplete as well. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been wounded by an Ice Dragon Scorpion in the first place."

Behind the curtains, the figures waved their jade-like hands, causing the layers of curtains to flip open, revealing a scene shrouded in an even colder chill.

Two seemingly young women dressed in palace attire sat cross-legged on the jade bed. They bore a striking resemblance to each other, both exuding beauty and allure. However, a faint coldness emanated from their brows, and their disheveled blue hair added a touch of vulnerability to their appearance.

Although they appeared to be in their twenties, their eyes revealed a sense of world-weariness, as if they had seen through all the ups and downs of life, and their faces displayed an abnormal pallor.

Xiao Ming glanced at them casually, then withdrew his gaze. They were indeed very beautiful, and the fact that they were twins added to their appeal. However, Xiao Ming had seen and experienced much in his life, so he couldn't be swayed by such appearances.

Of course, he still respected their status as powerful beings and clasped his hands respectfully, saying, "Xiao Ming pays his respects to the two seniors."

Xiao Yi Xian followed suit, mimicking Xiao Ming's gesture and saying, "Xiao Yi Xian pays her respects to the two seniors."

"Little Friends Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian, I am Qing Yi Nan, and this is my sister, Qing Yi Ya." The girl on the left smiled slightly, introducing themselves. Qing Yi Ya, who was seated on the right, also smiled gently at Xiao Ming.

"You heard it all a moment ago, the exact location of the Endless Spirit Ice is unknown to us…" Qing Yi Nan explained.

"Sigh, even an approximate location will do." Xiao Ming sighed helplessly. There was nothing he could do about it.

"Rest assured, Sound Valley won't let you lose out. We'll make sure to compensate you properly," Qing Yi reassured him.

"It's fine. I don't mind." Xiao Ming shook his head. In fact, the entire Sound Valley might not be as wealthy as him. He wasn't particularly interested in the compensation. The main reason he traveled all the way to Sound Valley was because Qing Yi had helped him before.

Of course, now that he would treat the two Semi-Saints of Sound Valley, they would owe him a great favor, so compensation was even less important.

Xiao Ming took out two jade bottles, and the surrounding temperature immediately increased. These were the Nine Revolving Sun Returning Pills he had refined earlier.

"It's best to remove the cold poison as soon as possible."

"We'll leave everything to you, Little Friend Xiao Ming. How should we cooperate?" Qing Yi Nan asked.

"Cough, first, you'll need to take off your clothes..."

"Ah?!"

Qing Yi Nan and Qing Yi Ya had never undressed in front of a man before, so they were somewhat surprised by the request.

"The Nine Revolving Sun Returning Pills are extremely yang in nature and require the assistance of a Heaven Flame. Your clothes might just burn up during the process," Xiao Ming explained seriously.

His words seemed to imply that either they undressed now, or they didn't, but their clothes would burn later.

"Well... alright."

The Qing Yi sisters exchanged a glance and softly agreed. They were on the brink of death, so why worry about such trivial matters?
