"Snowdale, that\'s enough." Then suddenly, a new figure appeared. Her tone was calm and serene as her white hair fluttered by the wind. She looked like a goddess even though she\'s wearing a mask.

"Snowdale greets the Sect Master." Snowdale cupped her fists and greeted the newcomer. She already expected that the sect master would be personally handling the matter here. Thus, she withdrew leaving a sharp glare towards Jin Rou.

"I\'m sorry for what that child has done, Young Noble." Winter Sectmaster smiled wryly, "She is just greatly affected by what happened in the past. Please forgive her ridiculousness."

"I guess that\'s all right." Jin Rou smiled helplessly. How could he not give face to the sectmaster right now? "I just wanted to meet the ancestor and I\'ll go. This will be the last time I can see her, so I really want to. Can you help me?"

Winter Sectmaster opened her mouth but no words came out. It seemed she had difficulty in saying what she wanted to say. Eventually, she responded, "Let\'s talk inside. It\'s cold here."

Jin Rou and Sylvianna were led inside. They were currently in the sectmaster\'s winter courtyard. It was one of the most beautiful courtyard aside from the ancestor\'s.

The Winter Sectmaster personally made the tea and served it towards the two, "This is the best tea our Winter Sect can serve you."

Sylvianna didn\'t like tea most of the time but her attention was caught by the sweet aroma of the tea. She took a sip and nodded in satisfaction. It was a perfect blend for a cold place like this.

"I\'m glad this little girl likes it." Winter Sectmaster smiled. She didn\'t mention the identity of the other party.

Jin Rou was not in the mood for the tea and directly asked to the point, "What happened to Snowinter?"

Snowinter Ancestor was the current strongest existence of the Winter Sect. Because of her, the people were treading carefully. She was a fully fledged Executioner.

Executioner were the other path aside from the sainthood path. However, not just anyone could choose this path as they firstly needed to have learnt the specific dao law in order to choose their Executioner\'s Path.

Currently, the Winter Sect had the dao law for this path. Moreover, they had no plans in sharing the dao law itself.

As of now, the Winter Sect had produced eight Executioners. Four of them had already embarked to a new world to broaden their horizons, while the other four were hibernating to keep their lives. After all, it\'s not easy to survive for them. Though the tribulations had a low chance of coming to them unlike the era emperors, their lifespan was shorter.

Winter Sectmaster gripped her fists and took a deep breath, "Snowinter Ancestor was taken by New Eye. She came with her own accord and no one forced her to do so."

"New Eye? What for?" Jin Rou heard this word once again. As far as he remembered, New Eye even extended their hands on Southern King where there were only vajras at best.

"They come here for the Executioner\'s Path Dao Law. However, the ancestor declined no matter what the offer was." Winter Sectmaster began explaining what happened.

A few years ago, ancestors from the New Eye personally came to Winter Sect pay them a visit. As they were known to be vicious and dark, they would have never been granted entry. Unfortunately, it changed since the New Eye held something against the ancestor.

They demanded the dao law to become an Executioner. The New Eye wanted to become the next Winter Sect that was capable of killing emperors and injuring top emperors.

Of course, Snowinter Ancestor didn\'t accept the demand no matter how extravagant the offers were. Being helpless, they instead demand for the ancestor to come with them. And to their stupefaction, the ancestor accepted readily as if she was waiting for this moment.

"That woman..." Jin Rou felt his head ache. He could easily guess what her purpose was for coming with them there.

"Fortunately, the ancestor is alive and well there. It seems she\'s even enjoying her stay there. We don\'t know what to do." Winter Sectmaster wryly smiled. They wanted to save the ancestor but the ancestor herself told them there was no need to.

So, they were treating it like she\'s there for a vacation.

"Do you know the location of New Eye?" Jin Rou said. They better be prudent enough or else their heads might roll on the ground later on.

"It\'s this." Winter Sectmaster handed over a piece of paper. There it contained the specific coordinates of the place of New Eye.

"Sylv, you stay here and entertain the sectmaster." Jin Rou said, "I\'ll be back immediately."

For Jin Rou, it was an urgent matter. Thus he set off and didn\'t dilly dally. He needed to confirm it himself whether the ancestor was alive or not.

With Jin Rou gone, Sylvianna was sipping the tea while the Winter Sectmaster did the same, albeit with stolen glances.

"I\'m under a deal with that man." Sylvianna could sense the probing gaze of the sectmaster, "He will help me exact my revenge as long as I can help him pave the way during the war."

"So Young Noble is going to challenge that old man again." Winter Sectmaster said in a low voice. Not just anyone was capable of challenging that oldest existence over and over.

In the past, Winter Sect had this thought too. However, Han Li stopped them from doing so. After all, he knew how dangerous it was and by that time, they stood no chance against them.

In fact, even up to now, with the progenitor gone, they stood lower chances against.

"He said this will be the last time. Thus, he\'s going to go all out." Sylvianna said, "It\'s an all in chips to bet. Kill or be killed. It\'s the only choices he has."

Hearing this, the Winter Sectmaster\'s heart turned heavy. No one knew how hard Han Li\'s path was. But she was aware that no one in their sect, even their progenitor, could pull this off.
