Chapter 2179: Chapter 2179: Ice Palace (Part 1)
"Okay." Fa Hanxing was only in his early forties, with a tall and handsome appearance, but his hair was already completely white, making him look even older than Dao Xuzi, and at the moment his eyes were slightly red with excitement.
Yang Ruxin and the others had also arrived and dismounted.
Fa Qingyang introduced everyone one by one, and once everyone was acquainted, he mounted his horse again, heading straight for the villa’s entrance.
At the entrance, a woman dressed in plain white clothes was waiting there, and upon seeing the group, hurried forward to greet them.
This person was her mother’s cousin, Zhang Xinlan, whose husband had passed away in the second year of their marriage. Since her cousin’s accident, she had come to the Fa Family and raised Fa Qingyang single-handedly.
Yang Ruxin glanced at Zhang Xinlan, and if she hadn’t known beforehand, she wouldn’t have believed this woman was in her thirties. She was naturally beautiful and well-maintained, looking as if she were in her twenties, and standing with Fa Qingyang, they could easily be mistaken for siblings.
Zhang Xinlan naturally fulfilled the duties of a hostess, ushering everyone into the hall, ordering refreshments, and arranging for guest accommodations, all with warmth and hospitality.
Fa Hanxing still wanted to exchange pleasantries, but Dao Xuzi interrupted by waving his hand: "Enough chatter. You called me here to treat an illness, right? Let’s hurry up."
"I would like the elder to rest for a while..."
"I won’t drop dead." Dao Xuzi impatiently waved his hand, "Are we going or not? If not, I’ll find a place to sleep, and don’t bother me in the future." Saying this, he turned to leave.
Yang Ruxin’s mouth twitched; this old fellow sure is impatient.
However, Fa Hanxing quickly stood up: "Please wait, elder, I will take you right away."
"Brother-in-law, sister will be fine." Zhang Xinlan glanced at Fa Hanxing.
"Thank you for everything." Fa Hanxing looked gratefully at Zhang Xinlan, "These years, it’s been fortunate to have you. Once Ziyu wakes, you should find your own happiness."
Zhang Xinlan opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, Fa Hanxing had already led everyone out of the hall, her face darkening instantly.
Yang Ruxin reached the hall’s entrance and turned to glance back, noticing the complexities in her eyes, sighing to himself; another woman misplaced her devotion, what a pity.
Fa Qingyang’s mother was named Xing Ziyu, and she and Fa Hanxing fell in love at first sight. After marriage, their relationship was very strong. Following the accident, doctors initially said there was no hope, but Fa Hanxing continued to use his Inner Strength to keep his wife alive, providing her with a breath of life. Because he needed to search everywhere for renowned doctors and miraculous medicines, he couldn’t always be by her side, so he spared no expense building a Crystal Ice Coffin and constructed an Ice Palace in the backyard...
The Ice Palace was located in the ice pond within the valley in the backyard, where there was a giant rock with a hole leading down to the Ice Palace.
However, surrounded by icy water with no bridges, only two lotus leaves floating on the surface, anyone wanting to cross needed to use Qinggong to leap over. The lotus leaves could be used mid-way, but that required excellent Qinggong skills, as the distance was about ten meters.
"I can’t make it across." Yang Ruxin shook her head, and no sooner had the words left her mouth when she suddenly soared into the air, and before she had time to gasp, she was standing on top of the giant stone.
