Chapter 220 features a notorious sister-complex and brother-complex.
"Water Prince, are you really the Dharma Image of Mutian Pavilion?!" Bai Guangying finally understood. Shui Qingli really had a secret that she could hide. If Mutian Pavilion hadn't come into the sight of the Immortal Realm again, it would probably have remained a secret forever.
Shui Qingli nodded. Since he said it in front of Bai Guangying, it meant that he believed Bai Guangying.
"In that case, there's no need to worry about many things." Bai Guangying was relieved to the surprise of Shui Qingli, who had agreed.
In Bai Guangying's view, since Sister Bing's brother has a status in Mutian Pavilion, even if Mutian Pavilion emerges and harms the Immortal Realm as rumored, it has nothing to do with them.
After all, the Water Ice siblings are known throughout Wonderland as being overly protective of their sister/brother.
Of course, Bai Guangying's story tells us that it's important to stick close to the right people.
"The fairyland will soon become turbulent. There may be many people with ill intentions who want to take advantage of you. In any case, you must not participate in their schemes, and you must not reveal my identity to avoid danger," Shui Qingli earnestly instructed.
"Brother, not only do you care about me, but I'm also very strong," Bing Lixue said with a hint of pride. "Besides, if anything really happens, won't you still be there for me?"
“Sister, this is also something I need to tell you.” Shui Qingli was also helpless. It had come to this critical moment, and he could only put the restoration of memories first to avoid causing greater changes: “I will be in seclusion in Shui Linglong Palace for a period of time recently, and I may not be able to come to support you in time.”
"I will set up a barrier in the Ice Crystal River later. With the current power of the fairies in the Fairy Realm, my barrier cannot be broken. You can rest assured."
Shui Qingli looked at Bing Lixue and said, word by word, "So, little sister, you must promise me that you will not leave Bingjingchuan during this time and will wait here for me to return from my seclusion."
“…Okay.” Bing Lixue could tell that Shui Qingli was worried that she would be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives while he was in seclusion, so she did not refuse the suggestion.
However, it seems that her brother has forgotten that although she rarely takes action now and is not as powerful as before, she was once the dominant Ice and Snow Ruler.
Moreover, with the Light Fairy Bai Guangying by their side, backed by powerful light energy, these two Saint-level fairies working together are not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry who can cause trouble.
As expected, Shui Qingli was just too concerned and made a mistake.
“Fairy Guang, I entrust my sister to you.” Shui Qingli turned to Bai Guangying: “You will be very safe in the Ice Crystal River.”
"Understood." Bai Guangying nodded.
Afterwards, Shui Qingli set up a barrier in Bingjingchuan and repeatedly instructed Bing Lixue until Bing Lixue's ears were calloused before she finally left.
……
After leaving the Ice Crystal Palace, Shui Qingli did not strategize as he had imagined—although he regained his original body and wanted to recover his memories, how to recover his memories became a major problem.
It's important to understand that if memory loss is caused by extreme trauma, regaining the memory may require the same trauma to forcibly awaken it.
But... at this point in time, how can he find that kind of excitement that can make his calm heart tremble?
……
[A fairyland, by the clear waters of the lake]
With the love candy she got from Stardust, Aizhen once again came to the shore of this clear, mirror-like lake.
Come to think of it, the last time I barged into this place uninvited was many years ago because of Yin Chen.
However, despite having important business, Ai Zhen still politely sent her visiting card first—after all, it was well known that Shui Qingli had a strong sense of territory.
Shui Qingli, who had just returned to Shui Linglong Palace and was still worried about regaining her memories, suddenly received a message from Ai Zhen.
"Princess Qing?" Shui Qingli was taken aback, not expecting Ai Zhen to visit him at this time.
Because Mandora summoned the Heavenly Seal, the Heavenly Pavilion and the Fairy Realm became connected. During this time, the Fairy Realm was in a state of panic, and all the fairies were busy and at a loss.
Yan Jue, the master of ceremonies of Lingxi Pavilion, has initiated several summons for the Lingxi Candlelight. Although he has managed to evade them all by claiming that he was "excessively expending his immortal power protecting Xu Yanhai and is currently recuperating at Shui Linglong Palace," it is foreseeable that the leaders of Lingxi Pavilion are already extremely worried about the appearance of Mutian Pavilion.
So, the fact that Ai Zhen has the time and inclination to see him at this time probably means she has something important to discuss.
While thinking, Shui Qingli directly transmitted her voice to Ai Zhen: "Princess Qing, please come in!"
