Bab 51: Chapter 51: Would You Believe Me?

"It's fine."

Hearing Ice Empress's words, Huo Yuhao's face softened into a gentle smile.

"Since I said so, it means I have confidence. Please help me contact Snow Empress."

"Since you've made your decision..."

Ice Empress didn't say more. After hearing Huo Yuhao's assurance, she also became a bit curious about how this human planned to convince Snow Empress. If he could really do it, it would actually be a good thing for her.

After all, Snow Empress's 700,000-year lifespan was coming to an end, and she didn't want to just watch Snow Empress die.

If things went wrong, Snow Empress wouldn't harm this human for Ice Empress's sake.

Ice Empress's body trembled, and her tail erupted with a bright emerald glow, turning the gray clouds back to the same color. The green light spread deeper into the Extreme North.

"Snow Empress, are you there?"

After a brief wait, a cold, pleasant voice echoed from the horizon.

"Ice, what's the matter?"

"Can you come here? Something's up..."

Ice Empress hesitated for a long time, unsure how to explain. In the end, she just braced herself and spoke up.

"I have a bit of a situation here."

"I'll be right there."

As the voice faded, Huo Yuhao remained calm, but Tianmeng Iceworm and Ice Empress visibly tensed up.

In the silence, Ice Empress glanced at Huo Yuhao, her tone indescribable.

"Let's hope you're as confident as you say."

Huo Yuhao didn't respond. While he appeared calm, the thought of seeing a familiar figure from his memories made his heart race slightly.

Before long, a gust of cold wind swept past, and a figure appeared before them.

Her long, snow-white hair cascaded down her waist, accentuating her stunning beauty. Her blue eyes, similar to Huo Yuhao's, were cold and proud. Her slender, white legs floated about ten centimeters above the ground, as if untouched by any dust.

Just looking at her, one could feel the innate sense of cold nobility radiating from her.

Whether it was due to the unexpected presence of a human or the same inexplicable sense of closeness she felt, Snow Empress's gaze first landed on Huo Yuhao, her eyes flickering. She completely ignored the cowering Tianmeng Iceworm, who was burying his head like an ostrich in Huo Yuhao's hand.

After a moment, she withdrew her gaze and spoke in a cool voice.

"Ice, what's going on here?"

Ice Empress hurriedly explained the situation, and Snow Empress quietly listened. She only showed a hint of emotion when she heard that Ice Empress had agreed to become Huo Yuhao's spirit.

She said nothing. Although she had planned to help Ice Empress with her 400,000-year tribulation, it was only to improve her chances. In truth, becoming a spirit was probably a better method, and since Ice Empress had already made her choice, Snow Empress wouldn't interfere.

Snow Empress floated toward Huo Yuhao, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly, her voice still icy.

"Human, what do you want?"

She quickly added, "If you want me to be your spirit, you can give up."

However, Huo Yuhao didn't rush to answer. He quietly observed this friend who had helped him so much in his past life. Back when he was only a Soul Elder, Snow Empress had already come to his side, and even until the last moments in the God Realm, she had supported him without hesitation, until finally...

As time ticked by, Ice Empress's worry gradually turned to astonishment.

When did Snow Empress become so patient!?

It wasn't just the humans who were enemies of soul beasts—no soul beast in the Extreme North dared to stare at Snow Empress for so long. Even Titan Snow Demon King had suffered a thousand-year injury at her hands.

But now...

Ice Empress felt like her brain couldn't keep up with the situation.

Finally, Snow Empress, seemingly unable to take it any longer, spoke coldly, her tone still as indifferent as before.

"Have you stared enough? Answer my question, human."

"...I did indeed call you here to become my spirit."

At this point, Huo Yuhao paused and said seriously, "I need your power."

However, Snow Empress's expression didn't change in the slightest. "I think I've made my stance clear. I—"

"I know."

Before she could finish, Huo Yuhao interrupted her. "But before that, there's something I want to show you."

As he finished, he activated his second martial soul. Icy white dragon scales quickly covered his arms, and his blue eyes turned into silver-white vertical pupils.

Feeling the unique aura, Snow Empress furrowed her brows, and Ice Empress exclaimed in disbelief.

"This aura... what kind of martial soul is this!?"

Huo Yuhao didn't answer. As he lifted his hand, a long sword, entirely blue, materialized.

Seeing the sword, Ice Empress's confusion deepened. She thought Huo Yuhao would use the martial soul that even she found unsettling to attract Snow Empress, but instead, he casually summoned an ice sword?

What use was that?

Instinctively, she glanced beside her, only to see that Snow Empress's expression had changed.

"...Snow Empress?"

Snow Empress ignored her. She stared intently at Huo Yuhao, and from the moment he conjured the ice sword, a ridiculous thought had popped into her mind. His next actions confirmed her suspicion.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath. His eyes flashed sharply as he turned and slashed toward an empty patch of ground.

In an instant, a flash of icy blue light streaked across the sky, illuminating Ice Empress's stunned face. The sword light, carrying an indescribable sharpness, left a several-meter-long gash in the snow.

"Emperor Sword! How do you know the Emperor Sword!?"

Ice Empress exclaimed in shock, while Huo Yuhao staggered, clearly exhausted. With only two soul rings, performing the Emperor Sword was pushing his limits.

After catching his breath, Huo Yuhao glanced at Snow Empress and tugged at the corner of his lips.

"My cultivation isn't enough yet. This is the best I can do. I hope I didn't embarrass you?"

Snow Empress fell silent. After a long pause, she nodded lightly.

"...You're far more extraordinary than I imagined. I want to know how you learned that move."

"If I told you that you taught me, would you believe me?"

Though it sounded like a ridiculous, evasive answer, Snow Empress didn't dismiss it. She looked at Huo Yuhao and asked in return.

"If I taught you, then you should know the other move as well, right?"

"...You mean this?"

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao raised his left hand, and in an instant, the surrounding cold air gathered toward it, turning his originally pale hand into a faint icy blue.

Bab 52: Chapter 52: What a Fool

Feeling the undeniable chill from his hand, Snow Empress fell silent once again.

He really knows it!

How could I not recognize my own signature technique!?

Although this human's cultivation level was far below hers, the proficiency with which he executed the move was on par with her own.

But how is that possible? That's my self-created battle skill! How could a human, someone I've never met, be able to use it?

"I really can't fully display Di Han Tian."

Huo Yuhao dispersed the cold aura from his hand and, seeing Snow Empress's conflicted expression, chuckled softly.

"But I assume I don't need to continue showing you, right?"

Silence.

The surrounding howling winds and the noisy sounds of snow vanished in an instant. Huo Yuhao said nothing more, simply watching the silent Snow Empress.

"...Your current body still can't handle my power."

After a long pause, Snow Empress lifted her head and looked at him deeply. Her tone was no longer as indifferent as before.

"Besides, I can't leave with you right now. There are still some matters in the Extreme North I need to take care of. Next time when you come..."

She hesitated, then with some difficulty, spoke the rest of her sentence.

"When you return next time, I'll give you my answer."

Upon hearing these words, Ice Empress and Skydream Iceworm were momentarily stunned.

They hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

Although Snow Empress hadn't given a definitive answer, it was clear she had been convinced.

It really worked! Huo Yuhao also breathed a sigh of relief. Two deep purple soul rings slowly rose beneath him. As the first ring lit up, Spiritual Detection Sharing instantly connected with Snow Empress.

Using this connection, Huo Yuhao told Snow Empress about her potential future fate, where she might be captured by humans after transforming into her human form.

After hearing this, Snow Empress glanced at Huo Yuhao with a complex expression, further solidifying her suspicions.

What this human said was true.

That Di Sword might have been something she taught him. Not her current self, but her future self.

Although it sounded bizarre, it seemed like the only explanation for his actions. After a moment of silence, she asked.

"If I hadn't agreed to become your soul spirit, would you have told me this?"

"Hmm?"

Huo Yuhao seemed surprised by the sudden question and paused for a moment before smiling.

"I've learned so much from you already, but I haven't paid any tuition fees. I can't just stand by and watch my teacher get captured."

"...Thank you."

After that, Snow Empress turned to Ice Empress and said, "Bing'er, you can begin. I'll protect you."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

Ice Empress was still recovering from the earlier events and somewhat dazedly approached Huo Yuhao, asking blankly.

"What do I need to do?"

"First, transfer the soul bone. As for the later process of transforming into a soul spirit, just follow Brother Skydream's instructions to seal your power. Leave the rest to me. I'll do everything I can to ensure your safety."

"I understand."

Ice Empress blinked her bright yellow eyes, hesitating slightly before speaking, "But... are you sure you can withstand that kind of pain?"

"Don't worry."

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, "This isn't the first time I've endured something like this."

Ice Empress seemed a bit confused, while Snow Empress, hearing this, glanced at Huo Yuhao again.

"Well, here I go."

Having made up her mind, Ice Empress wasted no time. Her body flashed as she moved behind Huo Yuhao, her tail gleaming with an alluring green light. In the next instant, it stabbed into his back like lightning, piercing through skin, muscle, and finally into the bone.

The intense pain made Huo Yuhao instinctively clench his teeth. Skydream Iceworm had already prepared to help, but after waiting for a while without being needed, he relaxed.

During the absorption of Ice Dragon King's power, Huo Yuhao had endured on his own for so long without any assistance. This process seemed relatively minor in comparison.

As expected, aside from furrowing his brow slightly, Huo Yuhao showed no other reaction. No screams, no trembling, which made Skydream Iceworm shake his head in admiration.

"That's harsh."

"He wasn't lying. This really isn't the first time he's endured it."

Snow Empress withdrew her gaze and glanced at Skydream Iceworm, her tone indifferent.

"How did you meet him?"

"Well... I met Yuhao in the mixed zone of Star Dou Forest. I was in a hurry to leave that place, and since he was the first spirit master I encountered who had mental power, I chose him."

Skydream, clearly somewhat afraid of the North's sovereign, shrank back a little before continuing.

"But now that I think about it, it's quite amazing. A human with no soul rings dared to venture into the mixed zone."

"That is quite remarkable."

Snow Empress nodded slightly, though her tone wasn't as puzzled as Skydream's.

Seeing no further questions, Skydream breathed a sigh of relief and subtly moved away from Snow Empress. But then, as if remembering something, he turned to her again.

"Oh, by the way, there's something else you should know."

"Actually, he knows the Beast God of Star Dou Forest. The Beast God was originally planning to come with him."

Snow Empress froze, her disbelief clear.

"Impossible. The Beast God has never appeared in the world."

Skydream nudged toward the white dragon scales on Huo Yuhao's arm, his voice carrying a meaningful tone.

"You should recognize that's no ordinary ice dragon martial spirit. Just from this, you can tell how credible my words are, right?"

Indeed, from the moment Huo Yuhao released his martial spirit, Snow Empress had confirmed that his martial spirit was no ordinary ice dragon. Or rather, it wasn't something that could be achieved simply by absorbing an ordinary ice dragon.

That aura even made her feel a sense of dread. If it was an ice dragon, it had to be one of the rulers of the ice dragon clan.

After a long silence, Snow Empress spoke again.

"...Then why didn't the Beast God come with him?"

Skydream Iceworm sighed, "Because Yuhao refused."

Snow Empress frowned and glanced at Huo Yuhao again.

"Is he an idiot? Doesn't he fear that Ice Empress and I would refuse and attack him afterward?"

The Beast God could have easily convinced them to become soul spirits. If not that, at least having the Beast God by his side would ensure his safety. After all, the Extreme North wasn't just dangerous because of her and Ice Empress; there were plenty of other soul beasts that could threaten this human.

"No, he told the Beast God..."

Skydream paused, a hint of amusement in his tone.

"He came to the Extreme North this time to make friends."

"..."

Once again, silence filled the air.

Snow Empress stared at the young man, opening her mouth a few times, but not knowing what to say.

After a long while, her cold voice finally broke the silence again.

"...What a fool."
