Time passed by, second by second, and ultimately the woman did not continue to attack.

However, at this time she had walked up to Tang Rao, standing less than five meters away from his body.

"Still alive?" The woman muttered in a frown, somewhat surprised.

She had attacked in anger earlier, and although she hadn't used her full force, it was still an indiscriminate attack.

But it wasn't something ordinary cultivators could withstand.

"Hmph!" The woman casually threw a large towel over Tang Rao's body.

Although it covered his body, it couldn't cover Tang Rao's skyrocketing presence.

"Wake up!" The woman hummed lightly, sending a faint pulse of consciousness into Tang Rao's mind.

It was somewhat similar to a Soul Shock, but it was not.

Too weak, perhaps a thousand, or even ten thousand times weaker.

It was just enough to wake someone from unconsciousness.

Tang Rao struggled a couple of times, then suddenly started shouting, "Ah, you bunch of trash, I won't let you go even as a ghost."

Then, he opened his eyes.

His eyes filled with anger and unwillingness, followed by confusion.

At this moment, he dared not slack off; he had to bring out his best acting skills.

He had to hide the truth of this incident, otherwise his life would be at risk.

Suddenly, Tang Rao looked at the woman fiercely, "Are you also one of their people? If you want to kill me, just do it. If I even frown, I'm not a Tang!"

The woman stared coldly at Tang Rao, squinting, seemingly pondering something.

It must be said, though it was just a glance, this woman was genuinely beautiful.

She seemed to be about the same age as Bai Xiaotong, only maintained better than Bai Xiaotong, and was no less beautiful. Moreover, compared to Bai Xiaotong, she exuded a sense of superiority.

Hmm, the so-called queenly demeanor...

"Do you know where this is?" The woman asked slowly.

"Start the fight, stop the chit-chat." Tang Rao still glared with very agitated emotions.

The woman slightly furrowed her brow, wondering if this guy had just fainted in the pool and saw nothing?

If that's the case, he might be spared.

"Pu... pu pu..." Meanwhile, Tang Rao vomited twice, spitting out mouthfuls of water.

He really was struggling to muddle through.

"What's your name?" the woman suddenly asked.

"Tang Laohei!" Tang Rao yelled proudly, God knows who the other party was. If she was from the Ying Family, then he was doomed. So, hiding his name was better.

The woman rolled her eyes, clearly somewhat resigned to the name.

"I don't know who your enemy is, but I can tell you, it's not me. This isn't a place for you, just scram." The woman shook her head, not wanting to say more.

This guy survived her attack, his fate was not yet sealed.

Tang Rao looked around, his expression gradually becoming one of astonishment.

"Where is this? I... I'm not…" Tang Rao bowed his head, deeply frowning, looking very innocent and clueless.

"Did you save me?" Suddenly, Tang Rao looked up and asked.

Woman: "..."

"Benevolent person!" Tang Rao suddenly shouted, "Thank you for saving me. From now on, I, Tang Laohei, will be your loyal follower. Whatever you ask me to do, I will do!"

The woman rolled her eyes again.

"Loyal follower…"

You really think of everything.

"I did not save you, go away." The woman waved her hand impatiently.

"Benefactor, don't drive me away, I am willing to work like an ox or a horse for you. I, Tang Rao, am grateful and must repay my debts. If I can't repay you, I would rather take my own life." Tang Rao said seriously.

"Then go ahead and die... oh, and try to die far away." The woman laughed inwardly, thinking what a peculiar character this Tang Laohei was.

To commit suicide if unable to repay a debt, what kind of bizarre logic.

"Benefactor, you... don't be like this, let's talk it out. Look, this place is such a mess, I can help you clean it up. I may not be good at other things, but I am strong." Tang Rao said.

The woman glanced around; the pond was blown to smithereens, and mud was everywhere, indeed affecting her mood.

"Fine, then clean up around here." The woman nodded her head. Since the young man was willing, she didn't feel like looking for someone else.

"Alright, benefactor, I will definitely clean this place spotlessly. Oh benefactor, can you tell me your name?" Tang Rao asked cautiously.

"This is the Frost King Palace; you can call me Lord of Frost." The woman left him with these words and walked away.

Leaving a completely flabbergasted Tang Rao.

Frost King Palace? Lord of Frost?

"Holy shit, it can't be Jiang Hanshuang!" Tang Rao blurted out.

Shangguan Ling said her mother was also in the Nine-Headed King Hall, and her name was Jiang Hanshuang.

This woman claimed to be the Lord of Frost, and her age seemed to match, and thinking back, she indeed bore some resemblance to that girl Shangguan Ling.

"Shangguan Ling, ..." Tang Rao cursed again.

Before coming, Shangguan Ling had assigned him tasks. First: make Jiang Hanshuang visit Shangguan Ling more often; second: charm Jiang Hanshuang...

Well, I did charm her, right in that pool.

But I nearly died, did you know that?

However, Tang Rao quickly harbored another doubt in his mind.

If this woman really is Jiang Hanshuang, why would she have a child with someone as despicable as Shangguan Fei?

It doesn't make any sense.

After all, the gap in status and strength is enormous.

"There must be more to this story." Tang Rao muttered, well, overthinking it is useless, better clean up this place.

"I really am a fool." Tang Rao rolled his eyes, not sure why he had had a mental lapse and decided to stay.

But since it was like this now, he might as well wait and see.

This Frost King Palace is strange, it seems to have only this Lord of Frost.

And in the Nine-Headed King Hall's nine leaders, there's no mention of a Lord of Frost or the Jiang family...

This Frost King Palace might very well be an independent entity.

Being independent from the nine leaders is rather audacious indeed.

...

Meanwhile, the news of Tang Rao's falling out with the Ying Family had already spread across the entire Nine-Headed King Hall.

The matter of Tang Rao killing Gai Jianchan and from Shie E Dao spread even faster.

As a result, everything kicked up a storm.

As for within the Meng Family Palace, Bo Ya unceremoniously threw down Meng Guanglin, his look cold.

"Bo Ya, what does this mean? Or should I say, is this the will of your Family?" Meng Jiuxuan asked calmly.

As for Meng Qinhou, he couldn't wait any longer and rushed to Meng Guanglin's side to quickly examine him.

"I was merely fulfilling Tang Rao's request by bringing Meng Guanglin here. You must have heard already, the Ying Family suddenly made a move on Tang Rao. The scene was chaotic, the Ying Family went mad, and even Meng Guanglin got seriously injured. If not for Tang Rao's rescue, Meng Guanglin would have been a corpse by now." Bo Ya quickly explained following Tang Rao's words.

What? Tang Rao saved Meng Guanglin?

The members of the Meng Family present were all in disbelief. Did that kid Tang Rao really have such good intentions? Why does it feel like there is some kind of plot brewing?
