Ran Yun Ting swept her eyes over this young woman and a hint of approval flashed across her face, “En, it seems you’ve made progress in your Ice Jade Secret Art once again. You have not disappointed your Master’s expectations.”

The young woman’s expression showed no change at all, her whole body still just radiating a deep chill, as if she was truly carved from ice.

Hearing these words of praise, however, the woman still spoke, “Disciple dares not neglect Honored Master’s care.”

“Very good, sit down!” Ran Yun Ting nodded lightly before pointing to an ice jade cushion in front of herself.

Once every month, this young woman would come to Ran Yun Ting’s residence to consult with her about any questions or doubts she had in her cultivation, and today was that day.

Both Master and Disciple had obviously experienced this kind of meeting several times so the young woman did not hesitate to sit down obediently.

“Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation recently?” Ran Yun Ting asked lightly.

Although Ran Yun Ting’s current cultivation was two Minor Realms higher than this disciple of hers, with the latter’s cultivation speed, it would likely only be a few more years before the two were on equal footing. A few years after that, her disciple may even reach the same height as the Supreme Elder. Ran Yun Ting had high hopes for her disciple, so she did not hold back when cultivating her.

The young woman nodded lightly and was just about to speak when her beautiful eyes suddenly caught sight of a portrait hanging on the ice wall behind Ran Yun Ting.

The young woman’s tender body shivered suddenly and her always calm demeanour and expressionless face filled with shock and amazement as she stared fixedly at this portrait.

The look on the young woman’s face was an extremely complex mix of pleasant surprise, disbelief, and loss… changing several times in an instant.

However, in just the blink of an eye, she once again regained her composure.

“Do you know this person?” Although the young woman’s expression had calmed down quickly, her sudden change had not been missed by Ran Yun Ting, causing the latter to ask doubtfully.

The young woman shook her head slowly, “I don’t.”

Ran Yun Ting frowned, as if she did not quite believe her.

The young woman explained, “Honoured Master’s house has always been sparse, with only a bed, chair, and table inside, so when disciple suddenly saw the portrait of a man hanging on the wall, she was a little surprised.”

Hearing her explanation, Ran Yun Ting narrowed her eyes and simply said, “En, I have never met the person in this painting, but apparently Brilliant Flame Sect is searching for him. Valley Master has ordered all the disciples who go out to search for him as well since he may be the key to resolving our Ice Heart Valley’s crisis!”

“So that’s how it is!” The woman tried her best to control her emotions and nodded lightly.

woman’s reaction but was unable to see anything suspicious in her expression. At this point, she was about eighty percent confident her disciple was telling her the truth, so she simply smiled lightly, “This matter is for others to worry about. Your only concern right now is to cultivate and strive to
