Several other palace masters turned their heads one after another, watching the shocked look on Su Xueer's face with smiles on their faces.
They had the same expression on their faces when they first learned the truth.
"Let's go quickly. Let's try to reach the foot of the mountain before dark, otherwise those vicious things will come out and cause another trouble." The leader of the palace said.
When the palace masters heard what he said, they all looked stern and their feet suddenly accelerated.
It is the time of daylight within the polar circle.
So when it gets dark, it's not dark.
But the dark clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, gradually blocking the faint sunshine.
The light became dimmer and dimmer, finally fading into darkness.
The cold rain falls in torrents, washing away everything.
In the wind and rain, the group finally arrived at their destination.
"I'll discuss it with you." A palace master gasped.
"What?" someone asked.
"In the past few years, none of you have to die, otherwise I won't be able to bear it."
"With Xinghui's support, you won't have any big problems."
"But it's so painful."
Several palace masters were talking, but Su Xueer looked around.
This is a mountain made of metal.
When they reached the bottom of the mountain, a small metal platform rose from the ground.
The eight palace masters stepped forward one after another and pressed their fingerprints on the table.
"Come on, Palace Master Su, you can press one too." Someone greeted.
Su Xueer stepped forward and pressed her hand on the metal table.
After receiving the fingerprints of the nine palace masters, a green button and a red button suddenly popped up on the metal table.
"Remember these two buttons." A palace master said.
"What do they do?" Su Xueer asked.
"Disguise waves are emitted on the surface of the planet, making it impossible for space monsters to detect the existence of this planet."
"Press green to start running; press red to stop pretending."
"Is it running now?"
"It has been operating since modern times. Otherwise, why would so many cosmic monsters turn a blind eye to our vibrant planet?"
"This is why the Federation will never be invaded by an enemy."
"Whoever dares to deal with the Federation must be prepared to face a swarm of space monsters."
"Remember, no one dares to invade the Free Federation. The Federation belongs to the Jiufu and us forever."
The palace masters taught earnestly.
"I remember." Su Xueer said.
"The new successor has arrived, asking for guidance in her direction." A palace master said to the metal platform.
"Are you sure?" A deep voice came from the metal platform.
"Yes, she has arrived."
Next, no one spoke.
But on the high mountain, a road gradually appeared.
At the foot of the mountain, a 100-square-meter metal room slowly rose from the ground.
When several palace masters saw it, they all breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the metal room.
The room was as warm as spring, and comfortable large chairs and hot water snacks had been prepared.
The most important thing is that there is a small bed specially used for resting.
When Su Xueer saw it, she followed the others and walked inside.
"You don't need to come in." A palace master said.
"Why?" Su Xueer asked.
"You are the new successor and must climb the mountain - we are here mainly to allow you, the new successor, to climb the mountain."
"Is there anything on the mountain?" Su Xueer asked.
"Inheritance ceremony."
"What exactly?"
"You have to see it for yourself. We are not qualified to discuss it, and we must respect it."
The eight palace masters looked at her with serious expressions.
"A piece of advice." The leader of the old mansion said.
"As the master of the palace, your wishes will be assisted by the guardians of the Nine Palaces, but only once. Please use this precious right with caution."
Su Xueer was silent for a moment, nodded, and walked up the mountain along the mountain road that just appeared.
The star cloak emitted a blur of light, shrouding Su Xueer.
During the climb and advancement, Su Xueer did not see any living things.
The whole mountain was bare.
In the violent storm, we could only occasionally see some gathered mummy bodies in the leeward places covered by the mountains.
These are people who want to pry into the secrets. After death, they were blown into a blind spot by the recurring arctic wind and stayed forever.
The wind and rain could not blow her body, but as she continued to climb up, the temperature dropped sharply.
The star cloak exuded a faint light, completely covering Su Xueer.
When the temperature dropped to a level where humans could not survive, Su Xueer suddenly felt a surge of power within her body.
This is a vast and majestic force. It materializes, turns into light and heat, and wraps Su Xueer tightly.
Warmth returned to Amelia Su's body.
"Strange, this is not my power." Su Xueer said softly as she analyzed the source of her power.
She was suddenly able to sense a complex and twisted rune pattern in her body.
This is the rune pattern on the emblem of the Su family. Every direct descendant will recognize this rune pattern from an early age.
They have been warned since childhood that everyone will grow old and die, but this pattern will always be passed down and will not be discontinued.
Amelia Su suddenly understood something.
"It turns out that this is the power that my grandfather passed on to me..."
She was silent for a moment, then raised her feet and continued climbing towards the top of the mountain.
A few hours later, Su Xueer finally reached the top of the mountain.
"Mountain climbing is fast, and it seems that this time, we have a young successor."
In the howling wind and rain, this voice was hoarse and full of vicissitudes of life, with a strange calmness and gentleness, which rang in Su Xueer's heart.
"Who are you?" Su Xueer asked softly.
"It's cold outside, please come inside and talk." The female voice said again.
The ground on the top of the mountain sank, and a small house quickly rose up.
The door of the house opened automatically, and it was dark inside.
Su Xueer looked at the house briefly.
This is a small wooden house that looks ordinary.
But at the pole of the Arctic, on the high mountains formed by the appearance of the giant spaceship, such a wooden house is almost impossible to exist.
Amelia Su strode in.
There was silence in the darkness, except for the wind and rain hitting the windows, making a slight messy sound.
That voice sounded from Su Xueer's heart again.
"Welcome, young lady, it seems that a relative of yours has passed away."
"Yes, that's my grandpa."
"So, you are quite outstanding, otherwise your grandfather would pass the position to your parents."
"I'm not great."
"I've seen your humility and that's a good start."
"Miss, please close the door and come to the fireplace."
Su Xueer followed the instructions and closed the door, blocking out the wind and snow.
She maintained her composure and walked toward the fireplace with light steps.
The woman who spoke, if she could be considered a human being, was holding an iron drill and stirring the scattered flames in the fireplace.
The woman said without looking back: "You smell of wind, please help me light the fire."
"Ah, okay." Su Xueer raised her hand gently.
The breeze floated, and the flames in the fireplace suddenly burst into flames.
The fire illuminated the darkness and warmed the room slightly.
Amelia Su stood there, silently observing the other party.
This is a man who has aged to the extreme.
She was huddled up in a large cloak, and the vicissitudes of life on her face were as deep into the wrinkles as a knife.
She has no eyes, no nose, these organs are all empty.
Her mouth was sewn shut.
From head to toe, every exposed part of her body was wrinkled, like an orange that had been drained of moisture.
"I hope my appearance didn't scare you."
"No."
"If you don't know how to talk to me, you can start with some small questions." The woman's voice sounded in Su Xueer's heart.
"Why are you like this?" Su Xueer asked.
"Oh, most heirs' legs tremble when they see me, and they run away as soon as they make a request. It's rare for anyone to ask about my situation." The woman was quite surprised and said with interest.
"It's okay to tell you. I once participated in a small game in order to gain eternal life and protect the Nine Mansion for a long time."
"The Immortal Game? That seems to be a terrible trap." Su Xueer said.
"Wait a minute," Su Xueer suddenly remembered something and said, "I have seen the Immortal Game several times, but I didn't seem to see you."
"Of course you didn't see that I participated in this game thousands of years ago."
The woman's voice was filled with a smile, and she said: "Yes, why would I participate in this dangerous game? Because after comprehensive comparison and analysis, I found that their immortality pill, apart from having too many side effects, is indeed the closest to true immortality. Wonderful items."
"Are you like this because of side effects?"
"Yes, I dealt with all the problematic organs from the beginning, and used special medicines and secret techniques, so I can survive to this day."
The woman spread out her cloak and exposed the fleshless white bones to Su Xueer.
Su Xueer looked at the other party's appearance, with a look of unbearable expression on her face.
How cruel a person must be to treat himself like this.
"No need to show that look, I'm happy with my situation."
The woman's voice continued: "You are still a young lady. Of course you don't understand how luxurious it is to survive in the end of the world."
"The end of all worlds?" Su Xueer keenly grasped this information.
"We can't stand talking all the time. Please sit down," the woman said.
Two ancient wooden sofas and chairs suddenly appeared and were placed safely next to the fireplace.
