Ice Emperor Scorpion—Ice Burst Technique

"Teacher really is the best. You're busy, Teacher, so I won't disturb you." Shui Bing'er finally put her mind at ease.

When Wang Yan saw Shui Bing'er leave her room, she immediately began thinking about Ye Xiaofeng.

Wang Yan took out Ye Xiaofeng's personal enrollment form. Shui Bing'er had handed it to her.

Ye Xiaofeng, male, 11 years old. Martial Soul: Jade Swan. Soul Power: Level 41. Soul Rings: four yellow. Other details unknown.

Seeing Ye Xiaofeng's enrollment form, Wang Yan was both shocked and regretful. He had already reached Level 41 Soul Ancestor at such a young age, but why did he not even have a single thousand-year Soul Ring? Was it because no one had helped him?

But that brat was too proud and suffered for it. She had extended an olive branch to him time and time again, only to be rejected every time. Otherwise, not to mention a thousand-year Soul Beast's Soul Ring—even a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast's Soul Ring, she would have found a way to get it for him.

I'll find time to meet this brat. If he wants to take my beloved disciple from me, it won't be that easy.

After seeing that her teacher had agreed, Shui Bing'er happily headed to the cafeteria, arriving before the others.

"Teacher agreed?" Xue Wu and Shui Yue'er looked at Shui Bing'er.

"Of course Teacher agreed," Shui Bing'er said with a smile.

"By the way, why are you moving here instead of staying properly in the dorms?" Ye Xiaofeng asked bluntly.

"What, three beautiful women are living with you, and you're not happy about it?" Xue Wu said unhappily upon hearing his words.

"No, it's just that the dorms are livelier. I'm worried you won't be used to living here," Ye Xiaofeng hurriedly explained.

"Kid, this big sister suddenly likes a quiet life. I don't want people fussing over me," Xue Wu continued taking verbal advantage of him.

"Alright, the food's getting cold. Hurry up and eat," Shui Yue'er said, quickly interrupting as the two kept bickering.

After the four finished eating, Shui Bing'er took out a small pouch and handed it to Ye Xiaofeng. "Xiaofeng, take these one hundred Gold Soul Coins first. If it isn't enough, tell me, and I'll think of another way," Shui Bing'er said gently.

"Thanks. I'll consider it a loan and pay you back once I earn money." Ye Xiaofeng did not want to live off a woman, but he had no choice at the moment, so he put it away first.

"Brat, Big Sis gave you her entire month's living expenses. Spend it carefully," Xue Wu warned Ye Xiaofeng in advance.

Ye Xiaofeng nodded. The four returned to Peach Blossom Garden and began bickering again over room assignments.

In the end, Ye Xiaofeng took the large room in the middle, Shui Bing'er took the room on the right, and Xue Wu and Shui Yue'er were assigned the other two rooms on the right.

Over the next half year, apart from attending classes, Ye Xiaofeng spent all his time in the library. He had practically finished reading all the materials on Soul Masters and Soul Beasts.

Xue Wu and Shui Yue'er were also close to breaking through to Level 30. Shui Bing'er suggested that they continue to Sunset Forest to hunt Soul Beasts and obtain Soul Rings.

But Ye Xiaofeng rejected the idea. Their attributes were water and ice, so they should either go to the sea or to the Extreme North. In the end, they chose the Extreme North.

Ye Xiaofeng brought the three girls to the outer region of the Extreme North. The cold there pierced to the bone, and the three girls shivered nonstop, though Ye Xiaofeng was fine.

"Xiaofeng, how long are we going to stay here?" Even Shui Bing'er could not help asking.

"That depends on our luck. If we're lucky, it'll only take a few days. If we're unlucky, even half a year is possible," Ye Xiaofeng said calmly.

"If I'd known the Extreme North was this cold, we should have gone to Sunset Forest or Star Dou Great Forest instead," Xue Wu complained.

"Wu'er, I came here for you. Even weather this cold can't stop my burning passion for you," Ye Xiaofeng said shamelessly.

"Stop saying such disgusting things and hurry up to find a suitable Soul Beast." Xue Wu never gave Ye Xiaofeng a pleasant look.

"Look at how well-behaved Yue'er is. She isn't like you." As Ye Xiaofeng spoke, he pinched Shui Yue'er's chubby little cheek.

"Yue'er, you can't fall for his tricks. Big Sis was won over by that silver tongue of his," Xue Wu said to Shui Yue'er.

"Don't worry, Sister Xue Wu," Shui Yue'er said with a smile, but her laughter gave her away.

"Alright, stop messing around. Let's hurry up and search for Soul Beasts," Shui Bing'er said as she watched the three go on endlessly.

After searching for three days, Ye Xiaofeng finally found Soul Beast tracks on the ground.

"We've been searching for three days and haven't even seen a ghost," Xue Wu started complaining to Ye Xiaofeng again.

"Wu'er, behind you—watch out!" Ye Xiaofeng teleported in an instant, wrapped Xue Wu in his left arm, and used the Seven Kill Sword in his right hand to block the Ice Emperor Scorpion's sneak attack. The force of it made him stagger back three steps while holding her.

If Ye Xiaofeng had not blocked the Ice Emperor Scorpion's stinger tail, Xue Wu would have been killed instantly.

"Prepare for battle! First Soul Skill—Ice Seal!" Shui Bing'er reacted immediately.

"First Soul Skill—Extreme Cold Tornado!" Shui Yue'er joined the battle as well.

"Judging from this Ice Emperor Scorpion's size and the force of its earlier attack, its cultivation is close to two thousand years," Ye Xiaofeng analyzed.

"It's about to break free of the Ice Seal." Shui Bing'er knew that her Ice Seal could not freeze the Ice Emperor Scorpion for long.

"Keep it restrained. Leave the rest to me." Ye Xiaofeng's gaze changed instantly.

"Xiaofeng, be careful," Xue Wu said worriedly. She usually argued with Ye Xiaofeng, but she understood that there was a time and place for everything.

"Don't worry, I won't die. How could I kick the bucket so soon before marrying all three of you?" Ye Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"I take that back. You should let the Ice Emperor Scorpion beat you to death," Xue Wu said angrily. This guy really had quite an appetite, wanting all of them to marry him.

"Second Soul Skill—Sweep the Thousand Armies!" Holding the Seven Kill Sword, Ye Xiaofeng slashed forward. At the very instant the Ice Emperor Scorpion broke free of the Ice Seal, the Seven Kill Sword came down upon its body, but it blocked the Seven Kill Sword's attack with its claws.

This completely enraged the Ice Emperor Scorpion, and it charged directly at Ye Xiaofeng.

"Second Soul Skill—Rainfall!" Xue Wu slowed the Ice Emperor Scorpion down.

"First Soul Skill—Ice Seal!" Shui Bing'er froze the Ice Emperor Scorpion again in an instant.

"Second Soul Skill—Zero Degree Impact!" Shui Yue'er called out.

"Third Soul Skill—One Sword Throat Seal!" Ye Xiaofeng thrust at the Ice Emperor Scorpion.

This successive wave of attacks injured the Ice Emperor Scorpion. Seeing that it was outnumbered and unable to win, it tried to flee.

"Don't let it get away. Leave the rest to me." Ye Xiaofeng glared fiercely at the Ice Emperor Scorpion.

"Third Soul Skill—One Sword Throat Seal!" The surroundings instantly fell still. The Ice Emperor Scorpion could not move, and Ye Xiaofeng stepped forward and heavily injured it with a single strike.

"Xiaofeng, why did your Soul Rings turn into hundred-year ones?" Xue Wu asked in shock. She had been too focused on the battle to notice Ye Xiaofeng earlier.

"You two should pretend you never saw it," Shui Bing'er said coldly. Xue Wu had wanted to get to the bottom of it, but since Big Sis had spoken, she did not ask further.

"You two discuss it. Who will absorb the Soul Ring first?" Ye Xiaofeng could not decide, since both of them had reached Level 30.

"Sister Xue Wu, you go first," Yue'er said with a smile.

"No, you go first. Maybe a better Soul Beast is waiting for me." Xue Wu still did not want to take advantage of her. The Ice Emperor Scorpion was already very good, and it would be difficult to find a better one, but she did not regret giving it to Yue'er. In her heart, Yue'er was like her own younger sister.

"Yue'er, this time you're the lucky one. Sit down and absorb it." Seeing them yield to each other, Ye Xiaofeng felt rather gratified.

"Xiaofeng, can I absorb a two-thousand-year Soul Beast's Soul Ring?" Yue'er was a little worried that she would fail to absorb it and waste such a fine Soul Ring.

"Don't worry about that. I'm here," Ye Xiaofeng reassured Yue'er.

"Do it. We still need to find one for Xue Wu." Ye Xiaofeng handed Yue'er the sword in his hand.

Shui Yue'er did not hesitate any longer. Taking Ye Xiaofeng's sword, she thrust it into the Ice Emperor Scorpion's body, then sat down to absorb the Soul Ring.

A purple Soul Ring emerged from the Ice Emperor Scorpion's body and transferred into Shui Yue'er's body. Yue'er slowly absorbed it, sweat appearing on her forehead.

Bing'er and Xue Wu were both anxious for Yue'er, but Ye Xiaofeng activated his healing ability, ready to save Yue'er at any moment. After an entire afternoon of absorption, she finally succeeded.

"Xiaofeng, I finally succeeded!" Yue'er opened her eyes, stood up, and immediately threw her arms around Ye Xiaofeng in excitement.

"Hey, hey, hey, little sister Yue'er, throwing yourself into his arms so quickly? Do you think we don't exist? Save the rolling around in bed until we get back," Xue Wu teased Yue'er.

"Sister Xue Wu, I was just too excited. I couldn't control myself," Yue'er said, blushing.

"Even so, you can't let this guy take advantage of you. Hurry and tell us, what is your third Soul Skill?" Xue Wu simply did not want Ye Xiaofeng to get his way.

Ye Xiaofeng was baffled. Just how had he offended this little brat? Ever since they met, she had targeted him at every turn and set all kinds of traps for him, yet in the end, she still would not give him a pleasant look.

"Third Soul Skill—Ice Burst Technique!" Shui Yue'er activated her third Soul Skill and sent it toward the distance. A massive explosion erupted within a hundred meters.

"Wow, that's so powerful!" None of them had expected the Ice Burst Technique to be so strong.

"The Ice Burst Technique consumes twenty percent of my Soul Power, though that will decrease as my cultivation rises. Thank you, Xiaofeng." As she spoke, Shui Yue'er ran over and gave Ye Xiaofeng a quick peck on the cheek.

"Xiaofeng, can we discuss something?" Xue Wu rubbed her hands together as she looked at Ye Xiaofeng.

"What is it?" Ye Xiaofeng saw the ill-intentioned look on Xue Wu's face.

"Let's find another Ice Emperor Scorpion. I want the Ice Burst Technique too. I'll agree to any condition." Seeing the power of the Ice Burst Technique, Xue Wu was completely tempted.

"You'd even agree to be my wife?" Ye Xiaofeng asked.

"That's not impossible," Xue Wu said firmly.

"The Ice Burst Technique is something you can only hope to encounter by chance. Even if we find another Ice Emperor Scorpion, it would be very difficult for it to appear. The odds are one in ten thousand." Ye Xiaofeng had spent a full half year in the library, so naturally he knew how rarely the Ice Burst Technique appeared.

"But even if we can't find one like this, we can look for something else. Isn't that right, Wu'er?" Ye Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"If there's no Ice Burst Technique, you can forget about marrying me. Hmph." With that, she turned and walked away. Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er could not help chuckling.

"Looks like our destined marriage hasn't arrived yet. By the way, Yue'er, shouldn't you devote yourself to me now?" Seeing that he had no chance with Xue Wu, Ye Xiaofeng turned to Yue'er.

"Sister Xue Wu, wait for me!" Shui Yue'er could not be bothered with Ye Xiaofeng. When she was with him, all she got was bullied by him, and there was nothing she could do about it.

"Looks like someone's harem dream can't come true." Seeing Xue Wu and Yue'er ignore Ye Xiaofeng, Shui Bing'er continued to twist the knife.

"Bing'er, why can't they understand my feelings? It would be great if the two of them were like Bing'er," Ye Xiaofeng said shamelessly.

"Cut it out. Isn't flirting with me enough? You still want to flirt with both of them?" Shui Bing'er said angrily.

"How could that be? I was joking, haha." Ye Xiaofeng reached out and took Shui Bing'er's hand.

"Bing'er, why are your hands so soft?" Ye Xiaofeng held onto Shui Bing'er's hand and refused to let go.

Shui Bing'er tried several times to pull her hand back, but she could not free it, so she let Ye Xiaofeng hold it.

"Enough fooling around. Let's find a Soul Ring for Xue Wu, then go back." There were Soul Beasts and Soul Rings most suitable for them here, but Shui Bing'er did not want to remain in such cold weather.

"Bing'er, you're becoming more and more beautiful. How wonderful would it be if this moment could freeze forever?" Ye Xiaofeng said wistfully, then pulled Shui Bing'er into his arms and kissed her.

"Xiaofeng, do you have something on your mind? Can you tell me?" Shui Bing'er saw through Ye Xiaofeng's troubled thoughts.

"It's nothing. I was just saying it casually." Ye Xiaofeng did not explain further. Holding Shui Bing'er's hand, he caught up with the others and continued searching the outer region of the Extreme North for a suitable Soul Beast.
