As the morning light pierced through the Ice Lattice, Luna was on tiptoe, reaching for the crystal door ring.
The Magic Cloak, adorned with the Star Moon Pattern, swept across the Lapis Lazuli Floor, and two fluffy pom-poms tumbled out of her hood, bouncing on her shoulders with her swaying steps.
"Miss, be careful!" Qin Si hurriedly caught the little Luna, who almost tripped. Fingertip brushed against the hem of the cloak, where a constant temperature Curse lingered.
The residual warmth from the Blue Butterfly Mark last night seemed to still cling to the infant Mei Xin, making her hesitant to pick up this overly precocious child.
Luna hugged her Unicorn Doll as she brushed past the Emerald Corridor and Obsidian Pillar, suddenly stopping in front of the fifth Malachite Column.
The instinct of a Former Great Mage alerted her to something amiss—what should have been blooming Frosted Roses were all drooping their heads, dark green vines oozing a strange Purple Red Liquid.
"Flowers... hurt." Pink's little finger poked at the curled Bud. As Luna tilted her head back, her hood slipped off, revealing her silver hair adorned with snowflakes.
She deliberately pressed the Unicorn's horn against the wilted flower stem, and her modified vocal cords produced a muffled Spell: "Gollum—Liang Jing Jing!"
Qin Si couldn't help but pull out his wand. "This has been eroded by Dark Element; Miss, watch closely." The Emerald Earrings rippled as he chanted, faint Golden Light Spots spilling from Zhang Jian.
When the Healing Spell touched the flowerbed's Shan Na, all the vines suddenly slithered in a Serpent Pattern, forming half of a fragmented Family Crest in the snow.
Luna's pupils constricted.
The Violet Vines entwined around that Emblem were strikingly similar to the Fragrance Pattern that had stained her father's cuff last night.
Unbeknownst to her, half an ear of the Unicorn Doll was torn off, revealing a Manifestation Charm that a Great Mage had secretly tucked inside.
"Third Young Master Lucius is back!" The exclamations of the Servants came from the archway.
Seizing the opportunity, Luna slapped the charm onto Qin Si's skirt. The Ice Crystal Brooch worn by maid Leonard suddenly refracted an eerie image: a woman's face from the Cellar Ice Coffin bore a striking resemblance to the Songstress serving tea in the Main Courtyard.
Qin Si's gasp was drowned out by the Wind and Snow.
Luna was drawn to the light spots refracted by the ice crystals, stumbling as she rushed into the courtyard.
As her silver-trimmed padded boots stepped over the edge of the magic circle, the Blue Butterfly Mark suddenly burned her, causing her to stagger and plunge into someone's mink cloak.
"Father... hug!" The sweet, trembling voice of the child concealed her fear as Luna wiped her runny nose and tears on Leonard's sleeve, embroidered with wisteria flowers.
The soul of the Great Mage was frantically analyzing the magical residue left on the fabric—this was clearly a medium for controlling the Ice Coffin through Puppet Technique!
In the Lord's stiff embrace, Luna caught a glimpse of Lucius's cloak, which bore the West City totem at its hem.
The newly replaced Griffin Brooch on Third Young Master Lucius's waist perfectly aligned with her dream's Resonance of the Curse Mark Totem.
Suddenly, the infant revealed a toothless smile at the girl behind him, while a hand hidden in the cloak quietly crushed a Manifestation Charm.
"Mother!" As Aelia's Dark Rose Scent wafted closer, Luna struggled and lunged toward her mother.
From the torn mink cloak, twelve Soul Crystal projections flickered briefly in the snow.
The Lord's obsidian pendant sensed the presence of the Soul Crystal, and a sudden burst of dark light startled all the Han Ya in the courtyard.
As Qin Si rushed over to catch the thrown infant, Luna's Unicorn Doll rolled right to the feet of Ice Coffin Woman's half-sister.
The Liu Ying Stone embedded in the doll's eyes flashed with blue light, recording all resonance fluctuations between the girl's wrist Serpent Bracelet and the shackles of Cellar Ice Coffin.
"Why are your hands so cold, Miss?" The maid wrapped her Little One tighter in her cloak but froze when she touched her nape—the Blue Butterfly Mark was circulating beneath her skin, forming a Warning Totem that only elves could understand.
Twenty paces away behind a Black Rose archway, Lucius suddenly pressed his aching left eye; his elven bloodline awakened one percent at that moment.
The sound of bells from North Tower echoed as Shan Na rang out, and Luna’s small face buried in Qin Si’s neck suddenly turned pale.
She heard the Twelvefold Curse Seal unlocking layer by layer within the Soul Crystal Resonance, while deep beneath the castle's foundation, the Ice Coffin Woman's eyelashes trembled as an Ice Shard fell, resonating with the fragments of the Magic Tower that had shattered when she fell in her past life, creating a connection that transcended time and space.
As the wind carried the scent of Violet Fragrance, the infant suddenly let out a heart-wrenching Loud Cry.
Qin Si followed her stiff little hand's gaze, seeing only the rotating porch engulfing half of Third Young Master Lucius's silhouette.
No one noticed that within the Rong Wa kicked away by Luna lay a simple boundary-breaking array drawn with Manifestation Potion—perfectly overlapping with a certain Ice Crack Gap in the Cellar.
As Qin Si turned around the corner of the Emerald Corridor holding Luna, the snow in the courtyard suddenly thickened like cotton.
A Hexagonal Ice Crystal landed on the infant's trembling eyelashes, melting into a Seven-colored Dewdrop that reflected two figures kneeling before the door of the Main Courtyard.
Luna's breath became suddenly Urgent, her fingers hidden in her cloak gripping Qin Si's collar tightly.
"Third Young Master Lucius, why must it be like this..." Just as Qin Si was about to step forward, she was rebounded by a Magic Barrier, while Xiu Xie traced half an Arc in the snow.
Only then did she realize that a silence spell had been cast over the entire front yard, with only the cries piercing through the barrier, accompanied by Ice Shard striking against her Eardrum.
The sight of Lucius Dark Cloak spread out on the snow resembled a piece of Hei Yu nailed to the ground.
The girl beside him clutched a faded cloak with her frostbitten fingers, and the cheap moonstone at her Neck contrasted sharply with the hanging Ice Crystal Chandelier at the corner of the Main Courtyard.
When the girl lifted her tear-streaked face, Luna's Pupil constricted violently—there was a grain of Zhusha mole beneath her Left Eye, identical to the soul mark of the woman in the Cellar Ice Coffin, named Mei Xin.
"Mother!
I indeed share flesh and blood with Selena! " The voice of Lucius shook off the snow from branches; beneath his unfastened collar were three gruesome claw marks. "Three months ago in the Western Forest, I was ambushed; it was she who used herbs to rid me of the swamp's Poison Spider toxins."
A cold laugh from Aelia pierced through the Carved Wooden Door, and as a waft of Dark Rose Scent drifted from the door gap, it suddenly wrapped around her with sharp-edged Ice Spikes: "What a close kinship!"
"After half a month of danger, I, as the Mother, learned of this from the Astrologer?"
Luna suddenly struggled violently, forcing Qin Si to place her on a stone bench beside the Pillar.
The infant's silver hair floated without wind, as she pretended to grasp the ice crystals in the air, her fingertip precisely brushing against Selena's trembling skirt.
The broken boundary array hidden within Rong Wa suddenly heated up, and the serpent bracelet on the girl's wrist responded by emerging dark red patterns—just like the curse totem entwined around the Ice Coffin Shackles.
"Madam, please see!" Selena suddenly tore open her collar, revealing a shocking purple bruise on her collarbone under the snow's light. "That night, my lord had a high fever that wouldn't subside, I..." She choked back tears, pressing her forehead into the snow. A wooden hairpin that had loosened from her hair rolled to Luna's feet, revealing a half piece of dragon scales hidden within.
Luna's Blue Butterfly Mark suddenly burned on her neck, memories from her past life surged like a tide—this was indeed the token she had given to the Elven King before her fall!
The infant let out a loud cry, her small hands flailing against the stone bench. The manifestation potion hidden within the Unicorn Doll quietly seeped into the snow.
"Enough!" Aelia forcefully pushed open the door, her hairpin striking out with a crisp crack.
As her skirt hem embroidered with a defensive spell swept across the threshold, all the frosted roses in the courtyard instantly withered. "Do you think I can't tell that this bracelet is soaked in Succubus blood?"
Lucius suddenly pressed his aching left eye, his awakened elven bloodline allowing him to see the black silk thread entwining around Selena.
He turned to look at Luna in shock, only to find the infant drawing on the stone bench with her potion-soaked hands—the crooked lines were identical to those on his father's study's contract scroll.
Selena suddenly smiled sadly, her frozen fingers gripping that wooden hairpin: "It was all just my foolish delusion." As she turned, her cloak lifted fine snowflakes, revealing the Elven emblem faintly visible on her nape.
Lucius's pupils constricted; this was clearly the mark of the Moonshadow Tribe that had been exterminated by his father twenty years ago!
"Wait!" Lucius stumbled forward to chase after her, but his mink cloak was suddenly pinned in place by a magic chain.
Aelia's fingertip glowed with a curse mark reflected in the snow, unmistakably an improved version of that year's marriage contract.
Luna seized the opportunity to kick her small, potion-soaked foot towards the barrier, and a sharp crack echoed from the direction of the cellar as the Ice Layer shattered.
As Lucius's fingertip coalesced into an Ice Blade that sliced through his palm, the Blood Pearl crystallized in midair, forming a deep crimson gem.
With red-rimmed eyes, he grasped Selena's wrist tightly, ice crystal snowflakes cascading down from where their hands met. "If Mother insists on tearing us apart, I will renounce my claim to inheritance—"
"Ling Jing Jing!" Luna suddenly struck the stone bench with her Unicorn Doll, her baby voice cheering piercing through the barrier.
The infant tilted her head, staring at the floating Blood Crystal, as a sudden burst of blue light from her silver hair drew the crystal down into the snowdrift.
Qin Si hurriedly pressed down on her heated nape, unaware that the Manifestation Potion was seeping along the grooves of the stone bench into the underground.
Third Young Master Lucius trembled violently; his awakened elven bloodline allowed his left eye to suddenly see the Black Line writhing within the Blood Crystal—clearly remnants of his father's control spell.
He stumbled to his knees, knocking over the Liujin Pan that held their Marriage Certificate. As the Sheepskin Scroll rolled to Aelia's feet, Luna happened to slap her potion-soaked hand against the surface of the barrier.
"Miss, don’t touch!" Qin Si's alarm rang out just as the Ice Layer shattered.
From the direction of the cellar, Han Qi burst in and knocked over a stone lantern in the courtyard. Selena's wooden hairpin suddenly floated up, and fragments of Dragon Scales resonated with the Star Moon Pattern on Luna's cloak.
The infant pretended to be startled and let out a loud cry; her discarded Rong Wa landed perfectly over the shifting array of broken barriers.
Leonard's Obsidian Pendant suddenly buzzed.
As Lord hurried through the Emerald Corridor, snowflakes brushed off his Mink Cloak and formed an Ice Mirror in midair, perfectly reflecting Selena's Elven Emblem on her nape.
His pupils constricted sharply as he felt the Puppet Thread hidden in his sleeve tighten. He then saw Luna stumbling towards the Ice Mirror.
"Father... hug!" The infant’s palm, smeared with Manifestation Potion, slapped against the mirror surface, and what should have dissipated suddenly froze in place.
Aelia's hair stirred without wind, and she finally discerned the shape of the bruise on Selena's collarbone—it was the totem of the secret vault known only to the Heir of the Magic Castle.
Suddenly, Lucius let out a muffled groan of pain as the awakened spirit in his left eye pierced through his father's garment, revealing the Twelve Soul Crystals swirling with dark light beneath the black robe.
Before he could speak, Luna had already seized Leonard's jade pendant, laughing as she exclaimed, "Hei Hei, it hurts!" The infant's palm burned through the magical barrier, and the surface of the jade pendant vividly displayed the face of the Ice Coffin Woman, pale and emerging.
"Ridiculous!" Lord waved his sleeve to push his daughter aside just as Qin Si caught Rong Wa, from which suddenly wafted purple powder.
Selena's wrist serpent bracelet exploded with a loud bang, and the splattered Sui Yu unexpectedly intertwined with the ice shards surging from the cellar, forming a fragmented Curse Totem in midair.
Aelia's Dark Rose Scent abruptly transformed into a blade, shattering the totem's Shan Na, while Luna's Unicorn Doll surged with blue light in her eyes.
"Father, look!" The infant suddenly hurled the doll towards the ice surface, and the beam refracted by Liu Ying Stone penetrated the black mist surrounding the jade pendant.
The bite mark on Leonard's neck remained visible under the strong light—its imprint perfectly matched that of the Ice Coffin Woman's ankle brand.
At that moment, the bell from North Tower rang out with a roar, shaking the courtyard stones with vibrations from underground.
Seizing the opportunity, Luna applied her last bit of Manifestation Potion onto her father's hand back. As she tilted her head back, a Lacrima fell, reflecting fragments of memories from past lives caught in the eyelashes of the Ice Coffin Woman.
Leonard's retreating figure stirred up a flurry of snowflakes, yet one crystal clung to Luna's Mei Xin.
As the Blue Butterfly Mark melted the crystal into water mist, the infant curled up in Qin Si's arms and sobbed softly. No one knew she was using a Great Mage's secret technique to decipher the lingering fragrances within the water mist, belonging to three different women.
