Chapter 702 -5 Is It Okay If Not Family Members_2
She awkwardly closed her eyes, thinking she just needed to get it over with, but then she heard a strange, crisp sound.
What was that sound?
“Damn!” Yan Yu’s face also changed drastically. He wanted to use the Cloud Dividing Eight Trigrams Step to retreat, but at this moment, Zhou Hongyu’s long leg was caught between his legs. What man could escape that?
The next second, the passages ahead and behind suddenly collapsed! Countless icy debris and stones tumbled down, completely blocking their paths. Indications of a collapse were also evident above their heads, but fortunately, there was an overhanging icy rock above Yan Yu’s head that stopped the falling glacier blocks, leaving only some debris falling on Zhou Hongyu’s hair.
In an instant, they were trapped with no way out!
The two were extremely close to each other, each could see the fear in the other’s eyes. Although a cultivator could sustain themselves by fasting without needing food or water, who would be willing to be trapped under layers of glaciers?
Yan Yu tried to form a sword technique but found that his Huang Tingjian was strapped to his back and, at the moment, was wedged between his body and the icy wall, making it impossible to unsheathe it—to successfully fly out, he first had to make space; however, with Zhou Hongyu right in front of him, there was nowhere to move.
The Liangyi Sword hung at his waist, so he could barely move it. But the room they were in was too narrow now, not even allowing distance to accelerate the Flying Sword, let alone to perform sword techniques.
Yan Yu could only press the Liangyi Sword against the blockage, trying to use the sword to drill through the debris… It seemed futile; the collapse extended far, and there was only more debris behind the debris, stacked up and immovable.
Zhou Hongyu also activated the Curved Curse, using the only free left hand to forcefully strike at the blockage on the side.
Short Punch!
It was completely useless.
Yan Yu then initiated the Wall-Penetration Technique, attempting to directly pass through the walls ignoring the surroundings—it didn’t work; as expected, there was a counter wall-penetration restriction on the ice wall.
Since they thought of wall-penetration, why didn’t they add a counter-collapse restriction? Or was it because it had expired with age?
“I’m going to spew fire,” Zhou Hongyu suddenly said.
“Dear lady, please have mercy!” Yan Yu quickly tried to dissuade her, “Spewing fire in this environment, isn’t that the same as directly self-destructing?”
“Crimson Feather Nine Phoenix Fire,” Zhou Hongyu responded, “I can control the force.”
“But that’s still risky,” Yan Yu said, “This blockade is so close to my head, what if sparks fly into my eyes?”
“Then you just close your eyes,” Zhou Hongyu coldly said, “Or do you have any other ideas?”
Yan Yu sighed inwardly, knowing that at this moment, their bodies were pressed together and their limbs entangled. If he was obstructive, this girl might think he was trying to take advantage of her—nonsense, we are buried under a glacier, who’s in the mood for that?
Although it was indeed comfortably soft and elastic.
With that, he closed his eyes; Zhou Hongyu immediately turned her head, glared, opened her mouth, and spat out an extremely fine and dense golden thread, which instantly pierced through the icy debris on the side!

It worked!
Zhou Hongyu deactivated the spell, a look of joy crossed her face, followed by a moment of confusion.
The Crimson Feather Nine Phoenix Fire indeed could pierce through the blockade, and because it was in the form of a fine, dense golden thread, there was no need to worry about it harming the two people in the cramped room.
However, because it was too fine, it had only drilled a deep and long hole in the obstruction, but it was not enough to allow their escape.
“We need to cut fiercely,” Zhou Hongyu concluded.
“Not quite feasible,” Yan Yu said, “The Great Bright Fire turns ice to water, your method cuts the ice; but the overall volume remains largely unchanged, at most turning the ice into smaller debris that can fall down, but the space freed up is negligible.”
“How about using the Great Bright Fire?” Zhou Hongyu looked displeased, “Or do you have any other ideas?”
Yan Yu immediately fell silent. His posture was like Zhou Hongyu had tightly pinned him against the ice wall, leaving him no place to escape. If he angered this fierce lady and she really spat out the Great Bright Fire, they would end up roasted together in an ice furnace—a most unlovely scenario, better to keep quiet.
Zhou Hongyu puffed her cheeks once more, spewing Crimson Feather Nine Phoenix Fire again. The golden thread swiftly penetrated the blockade, and then, as she carefully lowered her head, she began to move downward, cutting through it.
She had always used this spell by spitting out the golden thread and then forcefully swinging it. Now, to avoid harming Yan Yu, she could only control it slowly.
But this slow pace greatly increased the consumption of True Yuan, leaving her with no choice.
After cutting at the blockage for a while, Zhou Hongyu had to admit that Yan Yu was right. It was like a bottle filled with gravel, and now you use a laser to turn part of the gravel into sand, indeed saving some space, but not much.
What’s more troublesome was that her True Yuan was now depleted.
“Give me the Elixir Medicine,” Zhou Hongyu said.
“No need, I have some here,” Yan Yu tried to reach for the Elixir Medicine, only to find it stored in the pocket of his upper garment; to reach it, he had to bend his arm, but the space was already so cramped that even bending his arm was difficult.
“Use mine then,” she saw how awkward his actions were and sighed, “It’s in the pocket behind my butt.”
“Why would you stuff it behind your butt?” Yan Yu asked curiously, “Aren’t you afraid of sitting down and crushing the bottle?”
“…Mind your own business,” Zhou Hongyu snorted.
It was just a habit, really.
Yan Yu reached towards her lower back. This movement didn’t require bending his arm, but since Zhou Hongyu’s back was tightly against the ice wall, it was hard to slip his hand in. He had to use his left hand to embrace Zhou Hongyu’s waist from behind, pressing her forcefully into his arms to create space behind her.
