Xie Daoyun, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, slowly landed and, taking tiny steps, approached Fang Yu. She knelt down before him and said, "Greetings, Dragon Emperor!"
"Stand up and speak."
"Yes!"
Xie Daoyun's face lit up with joy, as she hadn't expected the Dragon Emperor to personally visit her place of residence. This honor was beyond her expectations.
Fang Yu didn't bother with niceties and went straight to the point:
"I have an important matter that I need your help with."
Upon hearing this, Xie Daoyun responded, "Your Majesty, please give your command. Daoyun is willing to do anything for the Dragon Emperor."
Fang Yu was surprised.
He hadn't expected the Dragon Emperor to have such charismatic influence that his followers would be so devoted.
"You said I am the reincarnation of the Dragon Emperor, but right now, I have neither the memories nor the powers of the Dragon Emperor… Currently, I am threatened by a stronger force."
"A threat?"
Xie Daoyun's white hair fluttered as her delicate face suddenly showed a flash of anger, "Who dares to insult the Dragon Emperor?"
Fang Yu let out a sigh and said:
"Daoyun."
Hearing Fang Yu address her this way, Xie Daoyun immediately lowered her head, slightly surprised but seemingly unaccustomed to it.
"What's wrong?" Fang Yu noticed Xie Daoyun's unusual reaction.
Xie Daoyun said, "The Dragon Emperor always calls me Ice Woman, it's just unusual for a moment."
"Ice Woman?"
Fang Yu was not familiar with this nickname and looked confused.
Then, Xie Daoyun explained that Ice Woman was her nickname because she had a Yin Body and excelled in Ice Attribute Martial Techniques.
"Ice Woman, seems fitting," Fang Yu smiled.
"Only the Dragon Emperor dares to call me that, no one else has the courage," Xie Daoyun continued.
"Oh? Then I am truly honored," Fang Yu laughed.
"Not at all."
"How do others address you?" Fang Yu asked out of curiosity.
"Ice God."
"…"
In this vast world, there is nothing strange. Fang Yu remarked, "You even dare call yourself a God?"
"Your Majesty jests… it's just a nickname given by people. A cultivator is always just a cultivator, never truly a god."
Fang Yu nodded and said, "Back to the main point. Though I'm the reincarnation of the Dragon Emperor, it doesn't mean I'm powerful… at least not as powerful as the Dragon Emperor yet. The problem now is, there are many powerful cultivators who pose a threat to me."
Hearing this, Xie Daoyun nodded.
"The Dragon Emperor speaks wisely… It was a oversight on my part."
"Have you thought of any solution?" Fang Yu inquired.
After a brief contemplation, Xie Daoyun asked, "What is your current realm?"
This question caught Fang Yu off guard. It seemed that Xie Daoyun couldn't discern his level of strength.
Seeing Fang Yu's hesitation, Xie Daoyun quickly added, "Ordinary cultivators might think that the Dragon Emperor just stepped into the realm of cultivators. But from my observation, the Spiritual Energy within your Majesty is incredibly dense, not cultivated overnight."
Fang Yu was surprised, realizing Xie Daoyun's perception surpassed that of Lin Weifeng by quite a bit.
"To be honest, I don't even know my own strength. I feel… I should be able to handle cultivators around the middle Earth Level."
Xie Daoyun nodded, showing no surprise.
"I have two methods to enhance strength. The first is to go to the Underground Palace and sleep on the ice bed to harmonize with Yang Qi and enhance strength."
"Sleeping on an ice bed?"
"Yes. Beneath the Ninth Layers Hall, there is a Frozen Array. It can stabilize my Spiritual Energy to achieve a rejuvenating effect. It can also accelerate my cultivation," Xie Daoyun explained truthfully.
"And the second method?" Fang Yu was already determined to try the ice bed.
"The second method is to find memory fragments."
"Memory fragments?"
Xie Daoyun nodded and said softly, "Just last night, I recalled something about the memory fragments… Remember when the Dragon Emperor fell, he sealed his consciousness voluntarily. Later, this consciousness turned into nine fragments, scattered throughout the Nine Provinces of Huaxia. If Your Majesty can find all the memory fragments, you can regain the memories and master supreme Martial Techniques!"
Fang Yu was shocked.
He hadn't realized the memory fragments could be preserved in such a manner.
"Are you saying these memory fragments, like accumulated experiences and skills, if I find them, can I regain the memories and re-master those powers?"
"Exactly," Xie Daoyun confirmed.
Fang Yu asked intently, "Do you know the locations of all nine memory fragments?"
Xie Daoyun shook her head:
"Forgive me, Dragon Emperor, I do not know... However, there is a way to find the memory fragments. That is by utilizing the resonance between the fragments."
"Even if you can sense them, you must have the first memory fragment to start," otherwise how could there be a sequence from one to two, two to three?
A look of joy appeared on Xie Daoyun's delicate face as she said, "Fortunately, I have not failed in my duties over the years, I have found one!"
Hearing this, Fang Yu was immensely shocked.
There really are such things as memory fragments?
He almost couldn't believe it! Those were the memories of the Dragon Emperor.
Just as he was about to ask more, Xie Daoyun said, "Please, follow me, Your Majesty..."
"Okay."
Xie Daoyun lightly leaped and descended.
Fang Yu, fearless, jumped down after her.
The two one after the other.
Gently landing in the Underground Palace.
Looking around, Fang Yu couldn't help but be amazed.
He had not expected the Underground Palace to have such a scene—stalactites, ice blocks, cold winds, and even simple furnishings... It wasn't enclosed; occasionally, the sound of the wind could be heard, along with scattered light from above.
Following Xie Daoyun not far, he saw a table, chairs, and a bed all made of ice blocks, all emitting Cold Qi.
Mist swirled around.
It was as if he had entered a fairyland.
A sight to behold.
"I didn't expect it to be so marvelous here," Fang Yu exclaimed in surprise.
"We have arrived."
Xie Daoyun came to a halt and bowed, "This is where I reside."
Fang Yu surveyed everything around him.
Everywhere he looked, it was a world of ice.
As she had said, the title of Ice God was not an exaggeration!
Xie Daoyun pointed at an ice wall near the ice bed and said: "Your Majesty, the first memory fragment has been melded into the wall."
"Good. Take it out then," Fang Yu suddenly felt a familiar sensation… And his emotions suddenly shifted.
"Yes!"
Xie Daoyun approached the ice wall, raised her hand, and her white clothes shot out.
Boom.
The ice wall collapsed thunderously.
The moment it collapsed, Xie Daoyun waved her hand, her sleeve sweeping up a dark box from among the ice chunks, rolling back to her.
Xie Daoyun caught the box, her face full of respect as she pushed it towards Fang Yu.
With a complex heart, Fang Yu was shocked to find his right hand trembling uncontrollably!
It had been many years.
He had never lost his composure like today.
This was not fear, but excitement.
Fang Yu lifted his hand and flipped open the box lid, revealing a fragment emitting a faint blue glow.
"Is this... the memory fragment?"
Swoosh.
A shadow drifted from the fragment.
Swoosh.
Someone galloped past on a horse.
"Who is that!?" Fang Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
Xie Daoyun quickly said: "Your Majesty, this is your memory... Please do not panic, hold your Dantian, and focus your mind…"
