Asna's mother frowned when she heard this name.
When Asna was brought here by her people, she asked Asna how she has been doing during those years in Jade City.
At that time, Asna told her everything happily. In her story, she mentioned Alex many times. This caused her to have some doubt in her heart and in the end, she asked Asna if she loves Alex!
And as expected, Asna's reply was positive. She does love Alex.
She did not agree with her daughter at that time, but when she saw the firm look in her daughter's eyes and the love for Alex in her heart, she sighed and muttered: "So be it. Anyway, with our Heavenly Ice Palace's resources, changing an ordinary person into a genius is nothing!"
Maybe, the people of Heavenly Ice Palace were all very confident about their resources that no one disagreed with Asna's love for Alex.
But this was not the only reason. There was another reason why everyone agreed to let Asna love Alex and not interfere in her decision.
The second reason was, Asna awakened Holy Spiritual Body and become the saintess of Heavenly Ice Palace. She was also in line to become the next leader, just like her mother and grandmother.
Every saintess was required to stay in the Heavenly Ice Palace for a lifetime. And when a saintess gives birth to a daughter, the daughter will be nurtured to become the next saintess and then leader.
It is in their bloodline that their saintess and leader could only give birth to a daughter. The child will never be a son.
And since Asna loves Alex and Alex is not talented, it means Alex would obviously agree to stay with Asna in the Heavenly Ice Palace.
And if they look for a genius, no genius will agree to stay in his wife's family!
Asna's mother was Luna Snow and her grandfather's name was John Snow. Her grandfather was a legend and a renowned expert. He sacrificed many things to be with her lover and even agreed to stay with her lover's family for his love's sake.
Of course, her grandfather is the only exception. Otherwise, no other genius will ever want to stay with his woman's family forever.
Anyway, John not only agreed to stay with his lover's family, but he even took her lover's surname.
It is not that he abandoned his own surname. It is just that he was born an orphan and had no surname. But he was a genius.
Anyway, her grandfather was currently one of the most powerful experts in the entire Heavenly Ice Palace, an initial Divine Lord Stage martial warrior. And because he agreed, more than half of the people followed him and had no opinion about Alex.
Luna thought for a while and spoke: "No, you can't go currently. You should know that the Mystic Ice Ruin is about to open. You have to enter the ruin and obtain the Mystic Ice Holy Sword. Only after that could I allow you to go anywhere you want!"
Hearing this, although Asna was disappointed, she still nodded her head and agreed. And then after saying bye to her mother, she went to cultivate.
On the other hand, Luna looked at the sky and muttered: "Only if my father had agreed for Aren. I believe Aren would have agreed to stay in the Heavenly Ice Palace. I just don't have any idea why father is so against Aren when he never even met him!"
Shaking her head, she also went away.
What she did not notice was that after she left, an old man appeared at her place out of nowhere. Looking at his daughter's sad face, the old man sighed and shook his head. Then he spoke in an extremely low voice, so low that only he could hear: "Luna, dear, everything I did was for your sake. You don't know the prophecy. If I had really agreed, I would have lost you."
"But don't worry, I have found a way. Eren has calculated the fate and told me someone will soon come knocking on the door of Heavenly Ice Palace. He will be a genius that has the blessing of the world. He is destined to rise high in the sky and might even leave the True Essence Sky World. And he will be the one to break that cursed fate of yours."
"At that time, I will personally go to invite Aren here!"
After muttering, the old man again sighed and also disappeared.
Slivya came to the Middle Land a year ago to explore. And in the meantime, she would also meet her cousin, Cedric Rayes, and see if he crossed his path with the destined person and changed his fate or not.
But when she went to the Profound Star Sect in order to meet Cedric, she found out that Cedric is missing along with two other disciples named Shivika and Rayan Rathore.
She could only sigh and continue her adventure.
However, during her adventure, she discovered a tomb of an extremely strong person that had surpassed the Extreme Void Stage when he was still alive.
So she entered the tomb and encountered many things that could increase her cultivation.
Slivya did not waste time and began to cultivate as soon as she discovered those treasures. With that, her cultivation soared until she broke through to the Extreme Void Stage.
After entering the Extreme Void Stage, she needed more time to understand the essence of her soul and go through the First Cycle of Soul Ascension.
However, even after spending a few months, she was shocked to see that she could understand the essence of her soul no matter how hard she tried. It seems as if something was restricting her from understanding her soul.
In the end, she could only leave the ruin.
Before Slivya left the tomb of that expert, she did not forget to bring all the treasures away. However, she did not expect one thing. As soon as she stepped outside, a divine light burst forth from the tomb as energy began to fluctuate.
She frowned and shook her head. As she glanced back at the tomb, she muttered: "Are you trying to seek revenge from the person who looted your tomb by announcing it to the entire world?"
Following that, she sensed a few auras rushing in her direction. In just a second, five figures appeared and quickly released their energies to seal off the area.
The five newcomers, two young men. a beautiful lady, and two middle-aged men, looked at each other excitedly. Then, they turned to look at Slivya.
The young man standing on the left asked rudely, "Did you just come out from the ruin? What's in there? Bring out all the things you obtained in there!"
The middle-aged man standing on the right emitted a faint aura, which clearly belonged to a Void Martial Stage martial warrior. He held a sword which was a Royal-ranked weapon, in his hand as he said threateningly, "We are deep inside the forest currently. It's now late in the night and the forest is completely deserted. No one's around for thousands of miles.
If you cooperate with us, we'll let you leave in peace." Then, he smirked and said lewdly, "Otherwise, I'll play with you to my heart's contain…"
Slivya sneered before she said tonelessly, "I'll only say this once: move out of my way!"
Then, a slight frown appeared on her face as she looked at the distant sky from the corners of her eyes.
The young man laughed out loud upon hearing Slivya's words. "What an arrogant girl. Forget about leaving, I'm going to capture you back with me and make you my wife!"
As soon as the young man's voice fell, Slivya raised her hand. A long sword materialized immediately. An energy sword shot out at lightning speed, leaving ripples in the void before it cleaved the young man into two.
"Loref!" The other middle-aged man cried out loud in shock when he saw this.
A black energy rose from his body, forming a strong defensive shield as he swiftly retreated. He knew the young man had just broken through to the Martial Emperor Stage, and yet, he was easily cleaved into two in just an instant. Even he, who was at the peak of the Void Martial Stage, was incapable of such a feat. Hence, he decided to flee.
It was not just him, but the other three people also understood that this beautiful lady is actually a devil. They are not her match and would die without a doubt if they dared to stay here.
So they all also escaped in different directions.
"Do you really think you guys could flee?" Slivya scoffed. A whistling sound rang in the air as she thrust her sword out and accurately pierced through a middle-aged man's skull.
The middle-aged man died with unwillingness in his heart.
Slivya snorted coldly. After that, along with another whistling sound, she thrust her sword in another direction, immediately killing the other middle-aged man.
As for the other two, she ignored them and hurriedly left the area.
