In this place, over thirty degrees below zero, this was no laughing matter.
This pot of tea was still steaming.
"Please, have some."
After saying this, Lin Xiao had no intention of drinking the tea. He pointed at the teapot and said, "The steam has frozen. How can I drink it?"
Just as he said, this pot of tea had frozen not long after it was brought out.
"Hmm?"
The head was slightly displeased.
Normally, this pot of tea shouldn't freeze, or at least, not freeze so quickly. This meant...
"It seems you're unwilling to drink my tea," the head said with disappointment. "That means there's nothing to discuss."
As soon as the words fell, the platform and seats were all gone.
Lin Xiao was left floating in the air.
"The guest follows the host's lead, alas." Lin Xiao shook his head. He had merely stated that the pot of tea had indeed frozen, and how could that displease him?
It seemed that speaking the truth could offend people.
"Since you say there's nothing to discuss, then let's skip some unnecessary steps."
As soon as the voice faded, space rippled, and the Sun Essence Gold appeared at the center of the head's forehead. It was only a meter away from piercing through the thing's forehead.
But it was unfortunate.
Space rippled again, and a spatial gate opened behind Lin Xiao. The Sun Essence Gold was about to pierce through Lin Xiao's body.
Then space rippled again.
The Sun Essence Gold instantly teleported to the head's side once more.
Space around the two of them constantly opened passages, and the Sun Essence Gold shuttled through these passages until its power was depleted. Lin Xiao then recalled it.
"I didn't expect your comprehension of space to reach this level. I underestimated you a little." The head sounded surprised. As it spoke, the surrounding temperature plummeted rapidly.
It was already early summer, and the extreme north had the phenomenon of polar day, so the temperature was quite pleasant. However, with the head's words, the surrounding temperature dropped by at least thirty degrees.
This time, even Lin Xiao felt a chill.
His body was quickly covered in a layer of frost.
At this temperature, the surrounding space became extremely stable, making it three to four times more difficult for him to open a spatial passage than before. His hand instinctively brought the Sun Essence Gold closer to his chest to warm his body.
His protective spiritual energy also became more solidified.
Soon, the frost on the outside of his protective spiritual energy had turned into a large block of ice. This happened in just three to four breaths of time, and he was frozen.
The speed and ability of this freezing made Lin Xiao feel something was wrong.
Even more so, the speed of this freezing was still increasing.
The outer layer of ice continued to thicken.
The temperature kept dropping.
Good heavens...
Lin Xiao felt the temperature outside. This was not the temperature of the arctic. This was more like the temperature of the Antarctic.
The Sun Essence Gold at his chest began to shine bit by bit, and its temperature also rose.
"Hot, hot, hot!"
Lin Xiao cried out in pain, and the next moment, the Sun Essence Gold directly sublimated the thick layer of ice outside his body!
The temperature was so high that it didn't even give the ice time to melt into water, directly vaporizing it. This was only possible with the Sun Essence Gold.
Breaking free of the ice, Lin Xiao stared at the Sun Essence Gold. The next moment.
The Sun Essence Gold shone as brilliantly as the sun in the sky!
