The next second, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt a sharp pain in its body, which immediately pulled it back to reality.

This time, Han Li did not kick it.

They simply used diluted Blazing Spring Mist to tattoo the character "ice" onto Tian Meng's body.

However, the two have completely opposite attributes, and the strength of the spring water was something that Tian Meng could not withstand, causing it even more intense pain than before.

This time, however, Tian Meng didn't dare to roll around. She just gritted her teeth and let out a muffled groan.

It could sense that the Vermilion Spring Water enveloping Han Li posed a deadly threat to it, even more lethal than the arrows pointed at its head by the Broad Hill. Just a small clump of it would be enough to take its life.

The fact that Han Li didn't kill it directly means that it is still useful.

Such a commotion naturally did not escape the notice of the three people standing to the side.

A cold glint flashed in Broad Hill's eyes as he was about to release the arrow he was holding in his right hand, but Azure Luan shook her head, interrupting him and forcibly suppressing her killing intent.

"It lied?"

Dugu Bo looked at Han Li, his poisonous wings also aimed at Tian Meng, ready to strike at any moment.

"No, it's all right. But I think it likes this mark, so I got it tattooed, right, Brother Sky Dream?"

Han Li smiled gently, and at the end, he even turned to look at Tian Meng.

"Yes, you're right, I like it very much. Also, you can just call me Xiaotian or Xiaomeng."

Despite the excruciating pain, Tian Meng forced a fawning smile.

It continuously consumed its Soul Power to resist the fire element at the wound, but dared not remove the mark.

The three Titled Douluo exchanged glances but remained silent. Han Li's lame excuse and Tian Meng's reaction spoke volumes.

Fortunately, the information that the big bug had given earlier was probably accurate; otherwise, Han Li would definitely have corrected it.

As for the word "ice," it must be the Bing Bing " it was talking about—is it a member of its clan? A relative or a lover? The group couldn't help but speculate in their hearts.

These bugs are really mischievous! They almost overlooked Bing Bing's information because of the news they just heard.

"Or should we just kill him?"

After a moment of silence, Broad Hill looked at Han Li with a very serious expression.

He knew Han Li's plan and that he was waiting for this giant insect to sacrifice and gain the greatest benefit.

Seventh Soul Ring that's a million years old! Even if it's not suitable for Soul Beast, the age alone is enough to make up for everything.

But now it seems that this insect is too scheming. He is afraid that something might happen to Han Li in the process, and as his master, he doesn't want his disciple to take that risk.

Han Li looked at Broad Hill's serious expression, paused for a moment, and then shook his head with a smile after seeing the deep worry in his eyes.

"Trust me, Master, everything will be alright. Let me talk to it alone."

Hearing his words, Tian Meng, who had been tense all over, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It could sense that not only Broad Hill, but also the other two titled individuals had been locking onto it.

It believed that as long as Han Li nodded, even if it used all its means, it wouldn't last more than three seconds, not to mention that the water around Han Li posed an even more deadly threat to it.

Broad Hill stared at Han Li for a long time, then gave Tian Meng a threatening look before nodding sullenly and walking outside.

However, he showed no intention of withdrawing his attack; on the contrary, the energy fluctuations on the arrows became even stronger.

Seeing this, Azure Luan and Dugu Bo nodded to Han Li and stepped back to Broad Hill's side, giving the two of them space to talk, but they both looked ready to make a move at any time.

Han Li smiled and, right in front of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, activated the Dualistic Domain and connected it to the Yin- Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well beside him, completely sealing off the surrounding area.

"Now that they can't hear us, we can talk. I'll add some extra protective measures; you shouldn't mind, right?"

Han Li's smile was as gentle as ever, but it made Sky Dream Ice Silkworm shrink back even more.

It glanced at the aura that seemed to be the domain and the spring water that completely enveloped the area, and gave up its last resistance.

"What good would it do if I minded? I can't do anything about it anyway."

To be honest, Tian Meng of stagnation is much more likable than before.

"You brought me here, surely it wasn't just to see a million-year-old Soul Beast. You seem to know more about Ferocious Beast beasts than I do, even the situation in the Far North Land."

"What do you need me to do? Become your Soul Ring? Or your Soul Bone?"

Tian Meng chose a comfortable position and collapsed onto the ground; it couldn't think of any other reason.

"Yes, you guessed right, but I want them all."

Han Li spoke very frankly, looking at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm without hiding his purpose at all.

"You?"

After letting loose, Tian Meng became incredibly brave. It glanced at Han Li with its small eyes and sneered.

"Although I can't discern your exact strength, you're definitely not yet a Soul Saint. If you want to absorb my Soul Ring, keep dreaming. Being stretched to the point of bursting is your only fate."

"As for the Soul Bone, although my combat power is weak, I can still control the Soul Bone to self-destruct. You won't get anything, hahaha."

Tian Meng was like a madwoman, writhing her beautiful body like a maggot while laughing loudly.

However, it did not receive Han Li's furious expression.

Han Li still looked at it with a calm smile, as if he were looking at a clown, even though in a sense, Tian Meng was absolutely right.

Han Li still possesses most of his Tianmeng Soul Power, unlike when he was half-crippled when he encountered Huo Yuhao. Even though Han Li has honed his body and mental strength to a level surpassing that of ordinary titled individuals, he still cannot withstand all of Tianmeng's energy infusion.

However, he never intended to kill them directly.

"It's alright. If you don't cooperate, I'll take people to kill Ice Empress, oh, and Snow Empress too. Even with that Titan Snow Demon King and the Little White Bear, they won't be able to stop us."

"When the time comes, I will tell her before I kill Ice Empress that this is what you asked me to do, simply because she rejected your advances."

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm froze, stopped laughing, and felt the cold for the first time.

It stared wide-eyed at Han Li, as if trying to understand how such cold words could come from the mouth of this human with a constant temperature, who was even more brutal than Di Tian.

Moreover, it didn't know how this human had managed to know so much about things that only it and Ice Empress knew.

"You can't do that. How do you know?"

Tian Meng suddenly stood up again, her expression full of panic.

"Why can't I know? I guided you to escape from the core area of Star Dou Great Forest. Is it strange that I know these things?"

Han Li smiled and tilted his head.

Given Han Li looks, this was an extremely beautiful gesture, but in Tian Meng's eyes, it was as if she saw a demon.

"Don't you think it's absurd that an Ice Silkworm falls in love with an Ice Jade Scorpion that feeds on it?"

"I helped you end this twisted relationship. You should thank me, right, Tian Meng?"

A magnificent ice crystal throne appeared beneath Han Li. He sat atop it, looking down at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm on the ground, his smile even showing a hint of compassion.

"Yes, no, I do like Bing Bing, you're wrong."

Tian Meng seemed to have been provoked by something, her expression turned ferocious, and she shouted loudly at Han Li.

"It's not that the louder you are, the more reasonable you are, Tian Meng. You're getting impatient. You know very well, don't you? You don't like Ice Empress at all, and Ice Empress could never like you, right?"

"The so-called love for Ice Empress is just an excuse you make for yourself when you're suffering, an excuse to keep you from breaking down, because you know that this wish is impossible to fulfill."

"Who would like a natural enemy who hunts them down and drives them out of their home? Especially since you are the one who is food. Would you like Soul Beast that you treat as food? Just like the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow that you devoured. If you really like it, it can only be your appetite."

"If you really like Ice Empress, why didn't you go straight back to the Far North Land when you escaped the Star Dou Great Forest? Because you know very well that even if you returned to the Far North Land, you would only encounter the same treatment as in the Star Dou Great Forest, or even worse, right?"

"So you're going to keep dreaming and deceiving yourself? Tian Meng, what a nice name. I just wonder if the meaning of this name has changed over the years."

Han Li's voice wasn't loud, but to Tian Meng's ears, it sounded like a thunderclap.

Each sentence was like a heavy hammer blow, or a sharp knife, constantly striking and piercing its sensitive and fragile heart.

"Please, stop talking."

Tian Meng buried her head in the soil, all her previous sharpness and nonchalance gone. Her body curled up, and all that remained was a low, almost murmured plea.

Of all the sharpest blades, none is sharper than one that tears open a wound.

Although Han Li also felt that his behavior was somewhat cruel, he did not consider himself a kind person. His extremely low moral standards caused him to feel a strange sense of pleasure while condemning his conscience.

He told himself that this was wrong, but it felt so good.

"It's time to wake up from this dream, Tian Meng. Come, answer me, what do you desire most?"

Han Li's verbal offensive came wave after wave, giving Tian Meng no chance to catch her breath.

"I, I..."

Tian Meng held her head with her two little paws at the front, looking up helplessly at Han Li.

"I want to live, yes, that's all I want to do."

Tian Meng murmured softly, but the expression on her face grew increasingly resolute, driven by the instinct for survival.

"That's right, you just want to live, but I really want your Soul Ring and Soul Bone, what should I do?"

Han Li stabbed the large worm, which had just returned to normal, with another stab.

"There's a way, there must be a way, right?"

At this moment, Tian Meng turned to Han Li for help. Its survival instinct was amplified, and it even looked at the enemy, trying to get Han Li to help it find a solution.

To be honest, this scene was somewhat beyond Han Li's expectations. He knew Tian Meng was a good-for-nothing, but he never expected her to be this bad.

He clearly stated that he wanted this guy's Soul Ring and Soul Bone. Asking him for help? Is he out of his mind?

However, although the situation was a bit bizarre, what could be more important than Master Han's kind heart? The process didn't matter; the result was already laid out before them, so there was no need to dwell on it too much.

After staring at Tian Meng for a while, Han Li's cold expression faded, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Tian Meng, you chose to ask me this yourself, didn't you?"
