Wang Ye looked at the ice cone that had fallen into the ground and couldn't help swallowing.

This powerful penetration.

If I were to be pierced by this ice cone, I'm afraid I'd be finished.

"Don't worry, if you're pierced by the ice cone, the sect will cover all medical expenses," Meng Qian said, seeing worry in Wang Ye's eyes, and reminded him.

"It's not about the medical supplies that I'm afraid of, I'm afraid I'll be dead on the spot!"

Wang Ye couldn't help but complain as he saw another ice cone falling toward his head and quickly continued practicing the Ice Sword Technique to dodge to the side.

Wang Ye was training.

Over here, Lin Shuang looked at Wang Ye with concern.

Honestly speaking, Wang Ye's training was a bit too rigorous.

When she was training, she practiced the Ice Sword Technique outside for three days before she officially began training inside.

"What's this?"

Meng Qian wasn't convinced by Lin Shuang's words, "that ice cone looks quite sharp, but do you really not know if it can kill a person?"

"I know."

Lin Shuang silently replied.

That ice cone was made from special energy, very sharp and with great penetrating power when it hit the ground. However, if it sensed a person, it would quickly melt.

The injuries inflicted would be minimized as much as possible.

Of course, there would be harm to the body.

Otherwise, how would they use such a method to motivate the disciples of the Ice Sect?

They're not meant to be fatal, after all.

Yet even knowing this, Lin Shuang still felt worried.

Seeing this, Meng Qian sighed and transmitted her voice with Divine Sense to Lin Shuang: "I know this is a heavy burden for him, but the time left for him is running short."

"He has something he needs to protect."

"Something he needs to protect?"

Lin Shuang was slightly startled.

"Yes."

Meng Qian explained to Lin Shuang, "On Earth Star, True Qi has not yet recovered, but the giant net that the strong ones used to block the two worlds is actually filled with cracks."

"Earth Star has abundant resources, right now the rifts aren't obvious and many people haven't noticed them, but what if one day the cracks widen and allow the strong to enter at will?"

"Do you think the people of Spirit Star would go to Earth Star to plunder resources?"

Lin Shuang fell silent for a while.

Eventually, she said, "They would."

Although Lin Shuang had grown up in the Ice Sect and rarely ventured out, the Ice Sect, even though in decline, had always protected Lin Shuang well.

However, the frequent harassment by the Cold Sect made her less naive.

Especially in Spirit Star, where the greatest principle was the supremacy of the strong.

The lack of recovery of True Qi on Earth Star meant that its people were extremely vulnerable, making any invasion by Spirit Star people almost effortless.

One could say that the things on Earth Star were virtually free for the taking by the people of Spirit Star.

And Meng Qian, although neither Wang Yifeng nor Wang Ye had told her about these things, had figured it out as soon as she knew that Wang Ye came from Earth Star.

Moreover, when she met Wang Ye at four o'clock this morning, she could feel the intense pressure in his eyes,

and the giant net, which many on Earth Star don't know about, is hardly a secret in Spirit Star.

One could say that any Spirit Star people who have cultivated for some time are aware of this net.

Therefore, Meng Qian had merely speculated a few times before she came to this conclusion.

Otherwise, Meng Qian was not a sadist; she would not treat Wang Ye this way without reason.

"So..."

Lin Shuang's extremely beautiful eyes, which resembled winter plums in full bloom, flashed with a trace of worry:

"Then Wang Ye, wouldn't he almost be making enemies with everyone on Spirit Star?"

There's no shortage of people eyeing Earth Star.

Among them, from Seventh Grade Cultivators to top-level cultivators, there are countless many.

All different levels are involved.

If Wang Ye intends to protect Earth Star, then it would be tantamount to making enemies from the low to high ranks of the entire Spirit Star.

When Lin Shuang thought of this, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide, her cool face filled with astonishment.

It's... unthinkable!

Even now, as a Fourth Grade Cultivator, she dares not consider it.

Moreover, Wang Ye's current level is only at the peak of Seventh Grade Cultivator.

"Sigh."

Meng Qian let out a sigh, "That's why I didn't let you get close to him yesterday."

"Could I really be so superficial that just because of a few words, I immediately judge him as not a good person?"

"That's not it."

"It's just that, the dangers Wang Ye will face next are considerable, to the point where if he wants to keep Earth Star safe, it would be like a moth to a flame."

"Getting close to Wang Ye would bring nothing but danger."

"As his mentor, as his senior sister and junior brother, when the time comes, we can still sever our ties with him, but if we have a different kind of relationship with him..."

Meng Qian looked deeply at Lin Shuang, "then there's no coming back."

Meng Qian, she once had feelings for Wang Yifeng.

Although Wang Yifeng did not reciprocate.

But Meng Qian knows what it feels like to watch someone from afar, observing the one you like, what kind of emotions it entails, and what the gaze means.

Lin Shuang was like this.

Although it's not yet obvious.

But Meng Qian can already sense Lin Shuang's emotions from her eyes and words.

Feeling Meng Qian's gaze, Lin Shuang suddenly felt as if all her thoughts were exposed; she quickly lowered her head to avoid Meng Qian's eyes and spoke hastily:

"Okay, I understand now."

Meng Qian sighed inwardly.

Did she really understand, or was she pretending to?

And even if she understood the reasoning, being able to truly change, she wouldn't have harbored feelings for Wang Yifeng for so many years.

Even when the news of Wang Yifeng's downfall was spread, that his strength was not as good as hers, she still longed day and night for that man who seemed inferior in the eyes of the outside world.

She was merely giving a reminder.

Fulfilling her duty as an Elder.

But what Lin Shuang would do next depended entirely on Lin Shuang herself.

After exchanging thoughts through Divine Sense, Meng Qian's gaze fell upon Wang Ye, and she became slightly absent-minded.

Initially, when Wang Ye was practicing the Ice Sword Technique, it was somewhat awkward, just barely managing to evade some Ice Cones.

But the more Wang Ye practiced, the smoother he became.

Meng Qian glanced at Lin Shuang beside her: "When you were practicing, how long did it take to become as smooth as him?"

"Three days," Lin Shuang replied.

It was only after three days that she dared to use falling Ice Cones to train herself in this way.

"He took only three minutes!"

Meng Qian stared at Wang Ye; his talent was much greater than she had imagined.
