42: Water Condensation, Ice PhoenixThe weather gradually became hotter, and the originally lively world suddenly wilted. The green leaves hung listlessly on the branches, and it seemed that they were also severely hit by the hot weather.
The sounds of cicadas chirping could be heard everywhere. Each chirp was a little harsh and disturbing, but it was also an indulgence in their short lives, sad and heartless.
Today's summer is the hottest in the past ten years. Even the outskirts of the Far North have been greatly affected, and the snowfields in the outskirts have shrunk significantly.
But this also brought great news to mankind. The weather caused the ice-attributed soul beasts to be somewhat weakened, and many low-level soul masters have formed teams to hunt for soul rings.
Tian Meng lay listlessly on the tree branch, looking at Shen Hanyu below who was meditating and practicing without being affected at all, without even a drop of sweat on his forehead.
The Hantian Spear was inserted aside, emitting a faint chill, dispelling the surrounding heat.
Shen Liuyu slowly walked down from the second floor, yawning, with sleepy eyes, and said in a daze:
"Brother, aren't you hot? I was woken up by the heat..."
Shen Hanyu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at her, and said mercilessly:
"You are a water-attribute soul master, but you are afraid of heat. You are so shameless to say it."
Shen Liuyu didn't care and said confidently:
"Do you think everyone is as perverted as you? You are as cold as an ice cube no matter when and where. I really don't know why. Bing'er's martial spirit, the Ice Phoenix, should be of higher quality than your broken gun, but it is suppressed by your broken gun in terms of both attributes and quality. It's really strange..."
Shen Hanyu was too lazy to pay attention to her sister who had let herself go. After regulating her breath for a while, she stood up and walked towards the house.
When passing by Shen Liuyu, Shen Liuyu suddenly said:
"Bing'er has achieved the breakthrough to become a Great Soul Master. I heard that she will go hunting for soul rings in a few days, but..."
Shen Hanyu reluctantly showed some interest and said:
"Go on, what's wrong?"
Shen Liuyu tried to find a flaw on Shen Hanyu's face, but unfortunately, she failed as usual.
"I heard from Yue'er that Bing'er and her aunt had some small conflicts over the development direction of her martial soul. Bing'er wanted to continue to pursue the control system, but the dean felt that the Ice Phoenix was a top-level beast martial soul, so he recommended that she pursue the strong attack system. The two of them have been arguing about this for several days. Brother, which path do you think is suitable for Bing'er?"
Shen Liuyu asked with some curiosity.
Shen Hanyu thought about it, shook his head casually, and said:
"Ice attribute is originally a balanced element. Both strong attack and control are possible. It can even be said that they are completely integrated. But according to the Ice Phoenix Martial Spirit, I think the strong attack system is better. But as for what she chooses, I support it."
Shen Liuyu said "oh" and nodded without saying anything more. After washing up, he lay down on the recliner beside him and rested.
After all, she had made an appointment with Shui Binger and her sister to come here to play today, so she had to recuperate now...
...
At noon,
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er appeared outside the fence.
Shen Liuyu waved to them excitedly after seeing this.
But Shui Bing'er and her sister seemed to be in a bad mood. They ignored Shen Liuyu's greeting, and there was a hint of sadness and tension in their eyes.
Shen Liuyu was stunned, then stood there in confusion.
Shen Hanyu slowly walked out of the house and suddenly said,
"Senior, there is no need to hide. There is no point, is there?"
After these words came out, Shen Liuyu fell into even greater confusion.
My goodness, what are they doing? How come I, the great Sister Yu, don't know? Is this some new way of playing a prank?
But then the beautiful lady in palace dress suddenly appeared behind Shui Bing'er and her sister. Shen Liuyu trembled all over and said in shock:
"Dean... Dean! Why are you here?"
Shui Ningbing smiled gently and said:
"Why, you are only allowed to get together secretly, so I am not welcome?"
Shen Liuyu shook his head violently, then looked at Shen Hanyu. Shen Hanyu was unmoved by what he said, and said calmly:
"There is no such thing as welcome or not. I actually want to know what your purpose is in coming here."
Shui Ningbing was not annoyed, and was still gentle and elegant. She gently pulled Shui Binger and her sister in. After taking a look at the surrounding furnishings, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, and she said:
"What a great place! No wonder Bing'er and Yue'er sneak out of town to come here every two days. Even I like this atmosphere."
Shen Liuyu quickly took out some juice from the house, put it on the table, poured a glass for everyone, then frantically winked at Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, asking what was going on.
There was a trace of helplessness in Shui Bing'er's eyes, while Shui Yue'er felt a little hopeless and simply ignored Shen Liuyu's inquiring gaze.
Shui Ningbing looked at Shen Hanyu with a smile and said:
"You must be Liuyu's brother, I've heard about you from Yue'er."
Shen Hanyu nodded, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at the gorgeous and beautiful woman in front of him. She was about forty or fifty years old, but her soul power was already that of a Soul Douluo. Her martial soul was not an ice phoenix, but it was also an ice-attributed martial soul. It should be a lower-level branch martial soul of the ice phoenix, such as the ice jade phoenix.

"You are right. I am Liuyu's biological brother."
Shen Hanyu said
Shui Ningbing nodded in understanding, looked Shen Hanyu up and down, and said:
"There are many extraordinary things about you. I, a Soul Douluo, can't even see through your cultivation. I even feel a deep threat from you with my mental power. I am very curious. You don't look very old, but why are you so outstanding..."
Shen Hanyu chuckled and said:
"It's just a matter of chance and luck."
Shui Ningbing smiled when she heard this, and said with her hands covering her mouth:
"Some things cannot be obtained by chance alone. You are a very smart boy. Can you tell me your name?"
Shen Hanyu also relaxed a little. At least now he was sure that the other party had no ill intentions and just came over to take a look.
And if a fight really breaks out, he is confident that he can defeat the opponent within a hundred moves. Although it may cause some serious damage to the surrounding area, at least he can ensure that the person is safe.
"Shen Hanyu, Han means cold, Yu means feather."
Shen Hanyu chuckled, his expression noticeably gentler, and said.
"What a nice name. Is your martial spirit a spear? It seems to be of very high quality. Bing'er said that her martial spirit cannot compare to yours."
Shui Ningbing praised, and then asked with some curiosity.
When Shui Binger awakened her ancestral Ice Phoenix martial spirit and her innate soul power reached level nine, it had shaken the entire Elemental City, and she was regarded as the hope of the future by the Shui family and Tianshui College.
As the king of birds, the phoenix is not only of high quality, but also has a certain suppressing effect on ice-attribute martial spirits in general. This is beyond doubt.
