Crossover Anime: Where Did My Male God Go?

Chapter 255 Gong Yuanzheng 42

"Thank you." Young Master Xue eagerly picked up a piece and took a small bite: "Mmm...it's so delicious."

"May I get another piece for Snow Boy to try?"

Gong Yuanzheng: "Take it."

Young Master Xue grabbed a piece and ran off, waiting in the hall for Xue Tongzi to come out from Gong Ziyu's side.

As soon as Xue Tongzi went out, he saw the excited Xue Gongzi.

"what happened?"

Young Master Xue handed over the dessert in his hand: "Young Master Zheng gave it to me. It's delicious. You should try it."

Snow Child took it, took a bite, and his eyes lit up. It was indeed delicious.

The food at the front of the mountain is really good.

He had never seen this before; it was of extremely high quality and tasted excellent.

"good to eat."

"I think so too, so I shamelessly asked for an extra piece." Young Master Xue ate slowly, as if afraid that he would finish it all in one go.

He noticed that Gong Yuanzheng's plate didn't have many pieces, otherwise he could have shamelessly asked for another piece.

...

Early in the morning.

Their real trial has begun.

Through the stone gate, the four arrived at the Cold Pool.

Gong Ziyu hesitated upon seeing the cold pool.

"Everyone knows I'm naturally sensitive to cold. Are you deliberately targeting me with this test?"

Gong Yuanzheng scoffed, "You really know how to flatter yourself."

"Young Master Yu has such a high opinion of himself." Young Master Xue's words were not as direct as Gong Yuanzheng's.

Gong Ziyu knew she had said something stupid again, so she didn't argue.

Young Master Xue slowly spoke: "The Frozen Lotus Pond has always been the first test for those undergoing trials. It has been like this for over a hundred years. The water here is icy cold and extremely frigid, yet it never freezes."

"At the bottom of the pool is a box made of black iron, inside which is the Xue family's sword technique manual, the Three Styles of Snowfall."

"As long as you dive into the icy pool and obtain the secret manual, you will have successfully passed the test."

Gong Ziyu looked at the white mist still floating on the surface of the pond, and all the confidence she had yesterday vanished.

"Infiltrate..."

"You can quit if you don't dare." Gong Yuanzheng had already put down his backpack; he was determined to clear the level as soon as possible.

Young Master Xue added, "Once the trial begins, if either of you feels strained, gets injured, or wants to rethink your strategy, you may return to your room at any time."

"There is no limit to when or how many times you can re-enter, but if you leave the Snow Palace midway, it means you have failed the trial."

After finishing their business, Xue Gongzi and Xue Chongzi left, leaving only Gong Ziyu and Gong Yuanzheng behind.

Gong Ziyu took out thick clothes from the box on her back and put them on, showing no intention of going into the water.

Gong Yuanzheng had already taken off all his robes, leaving only his undergarments, and walked step by step toward the cold pond.

The skill level is moderate, not too high.

"Isn't Gong Yuanzheng cold?" Gong Ziyu asked, huddled on the shore.

Gong Yuanzheng was speechless: "What nonsense are you spouting!"

The surface of this icy pool is still radiating cold air, yet Gong Ziyu still doubts whether it's cold or not; he's simply beyond help.

Gong Ziyu saw that Gong Yuanzheng showed no discomfort, and was relieved that the cold pond was not a pretext as he had thought, which was why he asked.

He never expected it to be a real, icy pool. How could he possibly get through this?

Gong Yuanzheng ignored him and plunged in, beginning to lie in wait.

At first glance, the cold pool appears to be very small in diameter, but the bottom of the lake is unfathomably deep.

The lake bottom was a deep blue color. As time went on, his internal energy was no longer sufficient to support him, and his body gradually felt a bone-chilling cold.

He had already seen the box, but he couldn't continue going down. Even if he forced himself to go down, he wouldn't be able to get back up and would hurt himself.

Don't rush things; stay calm.

Gong Yuanzheng stopped diving and gradually surfaced.

There was a crash.

Gong Yuanzheng revealed half of his body and came to the shore to catch his breath.

Gong Ziyu moved closer and asked, "How is it?"

"No." Gong Yuanzheng's black hair was already wet.

He took out a hot pill from the box to resist the cold and swallowed it, then sat down to meditate and calm himself.

Thanks to the lady's thoughtful consideration, otherwise he would never have brought the medicine in.

"What are you eating?" Gong Ziyu asked curiously.

Gong Yuanzheng said impatiently, "It's to prevent cold air from entering the body and harming your health. If you want to eat it, pour it yourself."

"Thank you." Gong Ziyu took out the jar and poured out one.

His body wasn't as strong as Gong Yuanzheng's. If Gong Yuanzheng could get frostbite, wouldn't he freeze to death?

Gong Ziyu hesitated for a long time, not even taking off his thick cloak, still unable to make up his mind.

Gong Yuanzheng has already begun his second dive.

He can only learn from each attempt and pass the level as quickly as possible.

Gong Ziyu shrank back, still unable to muster the courage, and decided to go back to her room to seriously consider a solution.

When they saw Gong Ziyu come out, Xue Gongzi and Xue Zhongzi were not surprised at all.

Gong Yuanzheng is different from Gong Ziyu. Gong Yuanzheng is like Gong Shangjiao, with determination and perseverance.

Young Master Xue poured him a bowl of porridge: "Have something to drink to warm yourself up."

"Thank you!" Gong Ziyu quickly accepted it; he was indeed freezing.

Seeing that Gong Ziyu's hair was not wet, Xue Gongzi knew that Gong Ziyu had not gone into the water, and asked another person.

"How many times has Young Master Zheng gone into the water?"

Gong Ziyu blew on the rim of the bowl: "This is the fifth time."

Young Master Xue gave Gong Ziyu face and didn't ask any further questions.

...

Gong Shangjiao came to Zheng Palace to find Qingyue.

Qingyue led him to the tea table and poured him a cup of tea.

"What business does Young Master Jiao have with me?"

Miyazaki: "Let me hear your opinion."

Although he still had doubts about Song Yueqing, he had a feeling that she was not the Unsharp Assassin.

He originally planned to go alone, but then he thought that perhaps there would be some other benefits from having more people with different opinions.

Moreover, Song Yueqing is quick-witted and has many ideas and opinions. After thinking about it, he decided to listen to her insights.

"Tell me about it," Qingyue said, leaning back.

"I plan to cooperate with Lady Wuji of Yu Palace to investigate Gong Ziyu's background and whether he is truly of the Gong family bloodline."

Gong Shangjiao picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Back then, when Gong Ziyu's mother, Madam Lan, gave birth to him prematurely, there was a rumor circulating in the palace for a long time that Madam Lan was already six months pregnant when she entered the palace."

Qingyue picked up the teacup and swirled it around, finding it amusing that even the young master of the palace gates could be so naive.

"Who is Lady Mist Princess?"

Gong Shangjiao: "Lady Wuji was originally a maid of Gong Ziyu's mother. After her death, Lady Wuji became the old master's second wife and Gong Ziyu's nominal mother."

Qingyue put down her teacup: "Young Master Jiao, there's something I need to remind you: being too confident in yourself can turn into arrogance."

Logically speaking, Ms. Ye did not have any outstanding performance when she was being considered for the bride selection.

Shangguan Qian had even secretly flirted with Gong Ziyu. As for the bride to be chosen, shouldn't Gong Ziyu, who wields a blade, be chosen first? Gong Ziyu is so naive, yet he didn't choose Shangguan Qian.

Gong Ziyu initially chose Lin Manman, who clearly disliked him. Why did he ignore Shangguan Qian, whose appearance was not bad and who had left an impression on Gong Ziyu?
