The next morning, the heavy snow finally let up.
The front courtyard of the Su Mansion was a world draped in silver.
In the center of the courtyard, the Iron Heart Copper Locust Tree had finally shed all its leaves, leaving only gnarled, vigorous black branches. They looked like countless iron halberds stabbing toward the heavens, hung with glistening icicles.
Beneath the tree, Su Yu was bare-chested. Billowing heat radiated from his body, instantly vaporizing the falling snowflakes and shrouding him in a cloud of steam.
'This should be the last snow of the season.'
Su Yu exhaled a puff of scorching white air. With a flick of his wrist, a Red Ginseng Jade Skin Pill fell into his palm, and he tilted his head back to swallow it.
The medicinal power spread, circulating throughout his body.
"Black Prison God-Locking Stake!"
Su Yu sank his center of gravity, formed a hand seal, and roared the words in his mind.
In that instant, every pore on his body seemed to slam shut!
