Chapter 3223 (Physical Fitness)
Ning Shuang rubbed her temples as she walked, feeling a terrible headache!
I feel so useless!
Young Master Zhou must have found her troublesome and a burden, which is why he knocked her unconscious!
Moreover, he was so rough with her that her head still hurts. If it weren't for the fact that this person is really rich and could swindle even more spirit stones next time, and that he did actually help her get the Heavenly Demon Bone, she would at least have cursed him a bit!
Ning Shuang looked utterly dejected!
……
Meanwhile, deep within the Frostbone Abyss, inside an ice cave.
Hu Xiaoman sat in front of the stone bed, watching the Ice Demon slowly and methodically arrange the so-called "wedding room," her lips twitching uncontrollably.
The ice demon had somehow acquired several large red silk ribbons, which were now haphazardly hanging on the rock walls of the ice cave.
Some dangled to the ground, while others clung to the icicles, creating a chaotic and disorderly scene that clashed with the original pristine white appearance of the ice cave.
He excitedly carried a lot of glowing ice crystals from various parts of the cave and clumsily piled them into a crooked heart shape with uneven edges, making it look particularly comical.
Finally, he rummaged through a pile of animal hides in the corner and found a few flowers that had long since frozen into ice lumps, carefully inserting them into the cracks in the ice crystals.
"Alright, that's beautiful!" The Ice Demon clapped his hands in satisfaction, took a few steps back to examine his "masterpiece," and his scarlet eyes gleamed with excitement, as if he had accomplished something earth-shattering.
Hu Xiaoman: “…”
What's so good about it?
This is practically a massive disaster scene!
A crooked, broken heart!
Red ribbons hanging haphazardly everywhere, leaning precariously!
And those few lifeless, frozen flowers!
She resisted the urge to cover her face and silently rolled her eyes in her mind.
"Little beauty, may we begin the wedding ceremony?" Ice Demon ran excitedly to Hu Xiaoman, his eyes sparkling.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but grin, revealing a set of sharp, white teeth that looked somewhat frightening.
Hu Xiaoman took a deep breath, forced a sweet and obedient smile onto her face, and nodded gently: "Sure."
She silently calculated the time in her mind.
Little Peach should be setting up the formation soon. If she can delay a little longer and wait for the formation to activate, she can take the opportunity to escape.
"Then... how do we worship?" The Ice Demon tilted his head, his scarlet eyes staring straight at Hu Xiaoman.
Hu Xiaoman looked at his sharp teeth and found them a bit irritating. She quickly looked away, pointed in the direction of the cave entrance, and said, "You have to worship heaven and earth before you can have a wedding ceremony."
"Good!" Ice Demon turned around, bowed deeply and respectfully towards the cave entrance, and shouted in a loud voice, "Heaven and Earth above, I, Ice Demon, am getting married!"
Hu Xiaoman: “…”
She was completely taken aback by the Ice Demon's remark and was momentarily speechless.
But in order to buy time, she suppressed a smile, nodded, and praised, "You did very well, and your wedding posture was also very standard!"
The Ice Demon was even happier after being praised, his smile widening to his core. He reached out and tossed his icy hair, asking, "And then, what else do you want to do?"
"Then you must pay respects to your parents again," Hu Xiaoman said, pointing towards the depths of the ice cave.
The Ice Demon blinked blankly: "What is 'Gaotang'?"
“Your parents are your parents.” Hu Xiaoman patiently explained the marriage customs of the human race to him.
very good!
They bought a lot of time with nonsense!
After Hu Xiaoman finished speaking, a trace of sadness flashed in the Ice Demon's eyes, and his tone became low: "I have no parents."
"I was born from this iceberg, and since my birth, I have been the only one."
Hu Xiaoman nodded, "He really is a bit pitiful!"
She said, "So, your parents are like this iceberg."
"Kneel down and kowtow three times to this iceberg, and that will count as having paid respects to your parents."
Ice Demon: "Okay!"
He immediately knelt down without hesitation, respectfully bowed to the vast expanse of ice and snow outside the cave entrance with a very sincere attitude, and then raised his head and shouted with all his might, "Parents, I, the Ice Demon, am going to get married!"
His voice was extremely loud, penetrating the ice cave and echoing through the snow-covered landscape outside, reverberating in the empty valley.
After shouting, he kowtowed three times with a loud "bang bang bang".
Then, he stood up, brushed the ice shards off his knees, and looked at Hu Xiaoman expectantly, his eyes filled with a hint of eagerness: "Little beauty, what's next? Is it time to...?"
Looking at his adorable, somewhat foolish appearance, Hu Xiaoman continued to lie through her teeth: "The wedding ceremony is now complete."
She said in a serious tone, "Next, there's another important part, a moment to test the groom's physical fitness!"
"You can't use any spiritual power. You have to do physical training, push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and so on. Do as many as you can!"
"Let me see how many you can do without using your spiritual power, and I'll know if you're a capable husband!"
The Ice Demon tilted its head, looking completely bewildered and confused, its crimson eyes filled with question marks: "What do you mean?"
Hu Xiaoman flicked her finger lightly, and a faint light flashed, and a small, illusory tool figure appeared in front of them.
Without saying a word, the illusory figure immediately lay down on the ground and began to do push-ups in a standard manner, one, two, three... at a steady pace, with perfect form.
After doing 100 push-ups, it immediately got up and started doing squats, followed by sit-ups.
After the tool completed the entire process and vanished in a wisp of light, Hu Xiaoman waved his hand and smiled at the Ice Demon, whose face was full of curiosity, saying, "Did you see that clearly?"
That's exactly what we did.
"Marriage is a real test of a man's physical strength. The more you do, the better your physical strength is, which means the husband I've found is more outstanding!"
"Come on, get moving, twist and turn, let me see what you're capable of!"
Hu Xiaoman put her hands behind her back, smiled, walked to the stone bed, sat down, and even casually crossed her legs.
The Ice Demon nodded, his tone arrogant: "Simple!"
"Little beauty, just you wait. I'll show you that I'm the most powerful man in this snow mountain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately lay down on the cold ground and began doing push-ups.
Hu Xiaoman swung her legs and looked at the Ice Demon with a smile.
Although this ice demon looked fierce, he was extremely serious and methodical when doing push-ups.
His cheeks were slightly flushed from the effort, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he showed no sign of stopping, like a well-behaved puppy.
As Hu Xiaoman watched, she used her mind to contact Xiao Taozi, who was setting up the formation outside the cave: "Xiao Taozi, is the formation almost complete?"
Little Peach's voice was stiff, as if frozen, filled with a deep sense of death: "Master, Master, not yet... not yet... we still have to wait a little longer... the last few runes are a bit complicated..."
Hu Xiaoman's lips twitched: "Xiao Tao, what's wrong with you?"
Why is your voice shaking like that?
Little Peach's teeth chattered: "Little, little master, I, I'm freezing to death!"
"This place is too cold. I dare not use my spiritual power to keep warm, for fear of being discovered by the Ice Demon..."
Hu Xiaoman looked at the images transmitted by Xiao Taozi through her consciousness.
Little Peach was covered in a thick layer of frost, and even her eyelashes were frozen, making her look extremely pitiful.
