Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

Chapter 469 Connection



Mira had no problem charming the wolf beastman since he had a relatively weak mentality, which was the reason why she didn't try charming the bear beastman.

While she had confidence in being able to charm both of them simply due to the difference in strength and bloodline, she didn't want to take any chances.

Part of her still felt a bit despicable that she had to resort to using such means, but she'd be a fool not to use all the cards in her hands.

After entering the Inner City, it was like she walked into a completely different world! The roads were well taken care of, the air felt cleaner, and the people looked happier.

Unfortunately, Mira couldn't take in the sights as much as she would like as she had a time limit on how long she could keep up her illusion, and with so many Core Formation and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators around, that time was reduced.

She needed to find an inn, and fast, so she doesn't reveal her true form to everyone.

Mira quickly walked through the Inner City and entered the first building that looked like an inn. It looked a bit busy, but she didn't care.

When she entered, she naturally attracted a lot of attention. It wasn't on purpose, but her bearing, aura, and figure were too unique.

She didn't bother trying to conceal her aura once she entered the Inner City since it would make her seem like she had something to hide. She didn't want to possibly be labeled as suspicious, after all.

Well, it's not like it matters all that much, even if everyone knows her cultivation, as her strength is far above that.

"Hot damn! Is that a fox beastman? It's been a while since I've seen one of those around!"

"I know, right? She seems to be quite the looker if she's hiding her face under a mask too."

"Meh. She's a bit too flat for my tastes. I thought fox beastmen were supposed to be curvy!"

"..."

"What the fuck are you talking about!? Just look at those long muscular legs!! How can you not fall in love with such creations?! I think I could die happy if I could just be crushed to death under those legs!"

"Bro… are you okay?"

Mira faintly listened in on the banter as she felt their disgusting gazes crawling all over her body. Still, she didn't get upset. She knew her body could objectively be considered perfect, and with that came the gazes of others.

Nevertheless, all these men were just a bunch of weaklings in the Core Formation Realm. Why should she care about the stares of ants?

With even steps, she walked over to the counter and said in a cold yet melodious voice, "I'd like a room."

"Y-yes! That'll be 10 Low-Grade Spirit Stones per night!" The female receptionist stuttered.

Mira nodded and tossed over 100 Low-Grade Spirit Stones and received a key in exchange.

Without saying anything, Mira left the lobby and headed for her room, not even bothering to glance at the other people in the room.

This upset a number of people as they wanted to shoot their shot with her. Fox beastmen are rather rare to see, especially in a big city like this, but they are rumored to be some of the most beautiful creatures in the world.

Naturally, most men wanted to try and court a beautiful lady like Mira. However, as soon as they stood up to block her path, they felt a dreadful killing intent lock onto them, nearly knocking them unconscious.

They didn't know where it was coming from since Mira's back was turned to them, but it was enough to stop them in their tracks.

This was only possible because Mira's control over things like her aura and Qi had increased by leaps and bounds over the last few months.

When Mira made it to her room, she let out an inaudible sigh of relief and undid her illusion.

"I guess when I get back to the Sect, I'll need to find something that can help me improve my illusion capabilities because this is a real pain in the ass. No, actually, it's these eye-catching tails that are the real problem! Sigh… Anyways, it seems like I won't be able to enter the Center City without getting caught." Mira muttered, but she already had a plan regarding this.

Ever since entering this city, she never once thought of entering the Center City, to begin with. She knew she was no match for the Lionel Family, and her illusions couldn't fool Soul Transformation Realm cultivators.

In fact, fooling anyone above Stage 5 of the Nascent Soul Realm already took everything out of her. That's why she was in such a hurry to come to an inn.

However, from the beginning, she did not need to enter the Center City because she could just make Hana come to her!

That's right! Mira planned to use the crescent moon pendant she received from Hana to call for her.

During the last 2 months, Mira thought long and hard about how Azaar was able to find Hana, and the conclusion she came to was that they were able to track her because of the pendant.

Although Mira wasn't exactly sure how they tracked it, she figured that it either released a specific aura or there was a tracking array on it.

This plan might be a bit risky as there's a chance that the Lionel family could sense the pendant as well, and she couldn't be sure that Hana was able to sense its location. But this was the quickest possible way for her to get her revenge.

So, without wasting any more time, Mira took out the pendant. She only left it out for about 3 seconds before storing it again as she didn't want the Lionel Family to come barging into the inn.

***

A few minutes prior, in the Center City, on the top floor of a giant mansion, Hana lay on the bed with a listless look in her eyes.

She's spent the last few months in the Lionel Family's custody, locked in a room with nowhere to escape. She had people watching over her 24/7 to make sure she didn't escape again, and she had no freedom.

Even when she was on Azaar's ship looking for Mira, she was stuffed inside a room and observed like some sort of caged animal!

She's spent most of her time reflecting on her past actions, mainly the fact that she gave Mira her pendant and even swore an oath to the heavens to protect Mira's secrets!

Part of her felt like she would have been treated better if she hadn't given up her pendant before being captured. To make matters worse, Mira hadn't even killed anyone from the Lionel Family like she was supposed to!

It was clearly out of her expectations that Mira was able to prevent Azaar from tracking her even when she had the pendant.

Well, it's too late for regrets now. Here she is, captured, with nowhere to run, and she willingly gave up the very thing that gave her life purpose.

The murmurs she often heard from her guards made her feel even worse.

"To think we have to stand guard for a mortal child whose only purpose is to bear the young master's children…"

"Shhhh! Don't say that kind of stuff out loud. Although her status is reduced to a breeding horse, she's still going to be part of the Lionel Family."

"I know, I know."

It's these kinds of whispers that made her time here worse than it already was. While she didn't fully understand these adult topics, she wasn't completely ignorant.

She could feel the disdain and contempt in the gazes around her.

While Azaar didn't treat her badly, it certainly wasn't out of the kindness of his heart. If he truly cared about her, he would've let her visit her mother by now!

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried or how much she begged, they forbade her from visiting her mother.

She even threatened to kill herself, but their response shocked her.

"Go ahead, but remember, your mother's life is tied to yours."

She didn't know if they were bluffing or not, but she couldn't take that chance! She couldn't allow her mother to die because of her own foolish actions.

That's why she has so much hate toward the Lionel Family! If she could, she would wipe them out of existence, down to their last descendent!

As Hana was falling deeper and deeper into despair, she felt a familiar connection, something she never thought she'd feel again!

'My pendant! Did Azaar actually find Mira and take it?! No, no, no, that doesn't make sense. We just arrived here a few days ago! Then, does that mean Mira-!' Hana couldn't continue her line of thinking as she felt her connection disappear after a few seconds.

'It's Mira! She really came to the City!!' Hana inwardly screamed, knowing Mira was probably the only person who could make her lose the connection she had with the pendant!
