The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1589 - 1587: Murong Xingguang’s Olive Branch

Looking at the avalanche behind him like doomsday, Ling Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he escaped quickly; otherwise, he might have been swept away by it.

Just as Ling Feng was feeling fortunate, a disheveled figure dashed out from the edge of the avalanche. It was unclear which twin it was, but his figure was extremely bedraggled.

"Big brother!" Seeing that his brother hadn’t made it out, the figure turned around and rushed into the avalanche to search for his sibling.

Ling Feng was somewhat shocked; he didn’t expect this twin to choose to forgo the temptation of being the Princess’s Husband to search for his brother buried by the avalanche.

Though the avalanche was powerful, it posed no fatal threat to them, who were in the Late Divine Sea Realm, and at most would only delay them for some time.

"It seems their brotherly bond is truly something others can’t comprehend!" Ling Feng sighed slightly, then turned and continued toward the summit of the snowy mountain.

The avalanche had delayed him for some time, so Ling Feng had to quicken his pace. Along the way, Ling Feng also saw Tian QiQi from the Western Continent; however, her steps were rather halting, indicating it was unlikely for her to reach the summit within the day.

On this Holy Snow Mountain, the demand for physical defense was stringent. In the absence of freely utilizing Vital Energy, physical strength became the key to determining victory.

As Ling Feng neared the midpoint, the cold wind intensified, and the snowstorm grew stronger, with the thick snow and wind ahead obscuring visibility to less than ten meters.

"This weather is too harsh!" Ling Feng exhaled a breath, lifted his head, and looked at the peak above. With half a day left, Ling Feng doubted whether everyone could reach the summit within the specified time and whether they could successfully obtain the Ice Snow Lotus!

Shaking his head, Ling Feng sighed and continued moving forward.

Finally, after three hours, Ling Feng reached the summit. There, atop the mountain, was a huge lake like a mirror, reflecting a cerulean light, giving one a dreamy, otherworldly feeling!

"Finally here, is this the summit of the Holy Snow Mountain?" Ling Feng exclaimed, "What a beautiful lake!"

"The lake is indeed beautiful and also the birthplace of the Ice Snow Lotus, but finding the lotus is no simple task!" At this moment, an exuberant voice came from beside Ling Feng.

"Who are you?" Ling Feng asked warily, looking at the approaching man.

The man had a handsome face, star-like eyes, and sword-like eyebrows, with a powerful aura about him: "I am Murong Xingguang, once ranked among the Four Young Masters of the Imperial Capital by some enthusiasts!"

So this person was Murong Xingguang? Ling Feng looked at Murong Xingguang with curiosity. Among the Four Young Masters of the Imperial Capital, Ling Feng had met the other three, but this was his first time truly seeing Murong Xingguang.

"Brother Murong, what do you mean by that?" Seeing that Murong Xingguang had no malicious intent, Ling Feng lowered his guard and asked.

Murong Xingguang pointed at the lake ahead and said, "This lake is called Sky Light Lake. It’s said that in the middle of each month, the reflection of an outer sky appears on the lake’s surface, hence the name Sky Light Lake."

"The Ice Snow Lotus is born in Sky Light Lake, but the fascinating thing about the lotus is that only those with pure hearts can see and pick it," Murong Xingguang said.

Ling Feng was speechless: "A pure heart? Are you sure?"

"That’s what they say! Otherwise, the Ice Snow Lotus wouldn’t be called the symbol of pure love!" Murong Xingguang shrugged and said, "His Majesty the Demon King has given us quite the challenge. Among us, how many do you think have pure hearts?"

Ling Feng looked at Murong Xingguang curiously: "Brother Murong, I wonder why you bothered to tell me this?"

Murong Xingguang laughed heartily: "Brother Ling, I know what you’re skeptical about, but I’m not the narrow-minded type. I’m quite interested in you, Brother Ling, and who knows, we might even become close friends in the future!"

Though Ling Feng didn’t know why Murong Xingguang extended an olive branch to him, he gladly accepted Murong Xingguang’s goodwill: "It’s a privilege to be acquainted with Young Master Murong of the Imperial Capital’s Four Young Masters!"

While the two of them praised each other, a sneering voice came over: "Murong Xingguang, you’re truly disgracing the Four Young Masters of the Imperial Capital by consorting with such a lowly person!"

This sarcastic person was Sky Star without Moon, also one of the Four Young Masters of the Imperial Capital. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Seeing Murong Xingguang and Ling Feng chatting away angered him uncontrollably. If it weren’t for Ling Feng stealing his Domain Flower’s Flower Spirit, he might have already reached the Azure Sky Realm by now!

Moreover, the previous battle between Tian Xing Yunxing and Ling Feng made the Tianxing Family lose face in the Imperial Capital, which further fueled Sky Star without Moon’s ire.

Murong Xingguang chuckled: "No Moon, what’s past is past. Why hold on to it? Ling Feng is a rare youth with outstanding talent; his future achievements are boundless. Resentment should be resolved rather than perpetuated; why not bury the hatchet with a smile?"

Sky Star without Moon arrogantly said: "Bury the hatchet with him? He’s not worthy! Xingguang, let me advise you: when making friends, choose those with a similar standing to us. Someone like him... who knows when someone might take him out!"

Ling Feng said cheerfully: "Thank you, Young Master Tianxing, for the warning. Many have secretly tried to harm me before, but unfortunately for them, their claws weren’t tough enough and were completely broken by me. No need to worry on my behalf about that!"

"Hmph!" Sky Star without Moon scoffed, then looked at Murong Xingguang: "Xingguang, aren’t you going to look for the Ice Snow Lotus? Or are you waiting for someone else to get it first?"

"If it’s meant to be, it will be; if not, there’s no point in forcing it!" Murong Xingguang chuckled and said: "The Ice Snow Lotus is a spiritual item, and a person without virtue is sure not to obtain it, so don’t worry about it!"

"Show-off!" Sky Star without Moon snorted, then headed toward Sky Light Lake.

Ling Feng looked at Murong Xingguang with some curiosity: "Brother Murong, you’re quite carefree."

Murong Xingguang smiled wryly: "Carefree? What carefree? In truth... I don’t really want to marry the princess because I have someone I like!"

"Then why are you..." Ling Feng stopped mid-sentence.

Murong Xingguang exhaled and said: "The person I like is my maid. She’s been taking care of my daily needs since childhood. She is gentle but also timid as a rabbit, yet she is kind and strong. Whenever I see her, I feel a profound sense of peace and calm."
