Chapter 1978


    “Celeste, don’t thank me. This is what I should do. From now on, no matter who wants to touch you,


    they will have to ask whether David agrees. As long as I don’t agree, no one can touch you, not even


    your teacher or a Sacred Saint,” David said domineeringly.


    “Yes, I believe you!” Celeste responded with a smile while crying.


    “Let’s go! Celeste, I’ll take you away from the ice cavern. I want to see who in the Iridescent Sect dares


    to stop me,” David said viciously.


    “No! I don’t want to leave just yet,” Celeste said, blushing.


    “Why?”


    After David finished asking, a touch of red came to his eyes before he could react.


    After some time, the bottom of the ice cavern.


    Crack!


    The ice sculpture suddenly broke open, revealing the figure inside.


    At the same time, David opened his eyes.


    The two looked at each other.


    David smiled a little while Celeste bowed her head.


    “Celeste, let’s go!” David said.


    “Yeah!” Celeste hummed. After that, she stood up and went to David’s side.


    The two had just walked a few steps before David stopped and turned to look at the bottom of the ice


    cavern.


    “What’s wrong?” Celeste asked, feeling puzzled.


    “Celeste, I don’t suppose we can hide from your teacher if we leave like this, right?”


    “Yeah, Master has set a restriction on me. Even if I leave the lowest level, Master will know, let alone if I


    walk out of the ice cavern,” Celeste shook her head and said.


    “That’s fine! Since we can’t hide, let’s give them a big surprise. I have long viewed the ice cavern as


    unpleasant. It devours human emotions and turns a person into a machine without emotions. This is a


    horrible ce that shouldn’t exist,” David said with a sneer.


    “David, you... are you going to destroy this ce?” Celeste asked with wide-eyed eyes.


    She did not expect David to be so courageous.


    Not only would he save her, but he also wanted to destroy the ice cavern.


    This was one of the most important ces in the Iridescent Sect, second only to the forbidden area.


    If this ce was destroyed, the four reputable elders would surely go crazy.


    “You’re right. It’s unknown how many disciples havee here to ept the most painful punishment


    in the world since the establishment of the Iridescent Sect. They have made mistakes, so they


    deserved to be killed. However, isn’t it inhumane to devour their emotions? This horrible ce should


    have been destroyed long ago.”


    “B-But David, this is one of the most important ces in the Iridescent Sect, second only to the


    forbidden area. Once it is destroyed, Master and the others will definitely not spare you.” Celeste said


    hastily.


    “Celeste, don’t worry! Since I dared toe, I’m not afraid of them. Even if all four reputable elders


    come together, they won’t be able to do anything to me,” David assured Celeste.


    “W-Well then! Be careful.” Seeing David’s confidence, Celeste stopped persuading him.


    It was fine as long as David was confident that he could deal with the anger of the four reputable


    elders.


    She did not like the ice cavern either.


    Many disciples who have made mistakes in the sect would be sent here. After they were given the


    restrictions, they would not even be able tomit suicide. Thus, they could only be emotionless


    machines.


    Hence, it would be good to destroy this ce.


    It was thest thing she would do for the women in the sect before leaving!

    Celeste knew that after she followed David to leave the ice cavern today, she would not be able to stay


    in the sect anymore.


    Hence, she could only quit.
