By the time Shen Hanyu and the Snow Empress returned to the Great Soul Arena, they sensed two unfamiliar yet powerful auras not far away. They were unmistakably the two Soul Douluo from before.
The two men had blended separately into the crowd. If not for Shen Hanyu's sharp senses, they might truly have slipped past him.
"They move pretty fast."
Shen Hanyu narrowed his eyes slightly and landed with the Snow Empress on another empty viewing platform.
These elevated viewing platforms were reserved for those of high status and great strength. No matter how wealthy anyone else was, it meant nothing; they were simply not open to outsiders.
Shen Hanyu stood side by side with the Snow Empress. Her beautiful eyes surveyed the bustling arena below as she softly said:
"That Titled Douluo has arrived."
Out of the corner of his eye, Shen Hanyu saw Sword Douluo whisper a few words into Ning Fengzhi's ear before vanishing from the viewing platform as well. Anyone with eyes could tell what he had gone to do.
Even from afar, Shen Hanyu saw Shui Ningbing's expression shift slightly. But after spotting him and the Snow Empress, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief and continued arranging everything in an orderly manner.
Not far away, Shen Junhe idly glanced over, then spat out his tea with a puff. He gently tugged on Qin Yi's arm and whispered:
"Dear, look. Isn't that Xiaoyu?"
Qin Yi looked over impatiently, then was immediately startled. Shen Hanyu also "just happened" to turn slightly, revealing the Snow Empress beside him.
Her snow-white hair cascaded down her back, and her flawless profile was exquisitely beautiful. Her aura was noble, cold, and proud, like that of a true queen—someone to be admired from afar, never profaned.
