"How is this possible?"

Lissandra's tone rose slightly, no longer as icy as ever. Her thin lips parted slightly as she looked at Li Ke and continued, "I know you fairly well. You do have quite a few Demigod helping you. For an ordinary person to befriend even one Demigod is astonishing enough, yet you have three. However, that doesn't quite reach the six you mentioned."

What does it mean to have six Demigod?

To put it another way, if Li Ke can really win over the six Demigod, then Lissandra thinks she could actually take on the Frost Watchers.

The Frost Watchers, sealed beneath the Howling Abyss by Lissandra using True Ice after nearly ten thousand years of freezing, are currently in a weakened state. Although Lissandra doesn't know their true power, if she could gather the six Demigod, along with herself, and then request Ornn's help...

Those who unleash the Frost Watchers can be killed! At least, Lissandra feels there's hope.

In a one-on-one situation, Lissandra is confident she can handle a single Frost Watchers, but she can't withstand the fact that a whole group of them are sealed away, which is why she's had this headache for millennia.

If a group of Watchers is released all at once, Lissandra will be forced to flee and helplessly watch as Freljord is destroyed by the Watchers and becomes the next Icathia.

What was Li Ke saying?

He said he could invite the help of twenty Demigod in the future?

Lissandra didn't believe it.

Twenty Demigod. Does Valoran and Freljord together have twenty Demigod?

Freljord happens to have over ten Demigod, but what about Valoran?

Demacia has three demigods: a living statue and the Celestials sisters. Noxus has one and a half, Zaun has one, and Valoran seems to have no other Demigod.

Seeing that Lissandra didn't believe him, Li Ke looked at Lissandra and said with a smile, "Look, Swain of Noxus, Janna of Zaun, Karma of Ionia, Udyr of Winter's Claw, and the two behind me."

Lissandra reached out and rubbed her forehead, interrupting Li Ke as she asked softly, "Wait, you said two people?"

"I forgot to tell you, Lissandra, in that world you don't know about, I'm able to get to know many Deity." Li Ke revealed his white teeth with a sunny smile, and continued, "Right now, I can invite two, but in the future, just in that other world alone, I think I could invite more than a dozen Demigod."

Li Ke was not taking out loans blindly.

When I last met Ahri and Kindred, they hinted that they wanted to introduce Li Ke to Syndra and Cassiopeia.

Syndra, being a Lawful Good Kanmei, should be easy to talk to. Cassiopeia, on the other hand, is Akana and not easy to get along with. However, with Ahri's introduction and Li Ke's ability to help Cassiopeia find her lost items, she should develop feelings for Li Ke.

That's right. Once the friendship level reaches a certain stage, the gifts issued by the system can be returned to the corresponding Deity; those are their treasures!

Therefore, Li Ke gradually understood the role of Soul Blossom. Soul Blossom was indeed Li Ke's Golden Finger for becoming stronger, but it was also Li Ke's trump card. As long as he used it properly, the Deity in Soul Blossom would all befriend him.

In the future, Li Ke will truly have the favor of more than a dozen Demigod!

"..." Lissandra opened her mouth, her lifeless white pupils flickered, shocked by what Li Ke had said.

A dozen or so Demigod?

No, if you could really befriend a dozen or so Demigod, wouldn't you be able to do Runeterra?

Should I believe you?

"You can trust me, Lissandra. When I came to Freljord, I knew you would come looking for me. You asked me if I was afraid of you, and my answer is no. Because I know that what I will do in the future is the same as what you are doing now," Li Ke nodded.

He continued, "Lissandra, we're on the same side, we're not enemies."

"Not an enemy." Lissandra seemed lost in memories. She lowered her head slightly, her delicate chin tucked in, and her eyes lowered. But after a moment, she raised her head and said, "It's been a long time since anyone has said that to me."

"But even so, Li Ke, this is still very difficult to do. Udyr does indeed possess the strength of Demigod. After communicating with all things and borrowing the power of the beast spirits, he can temporarily possess the power of Deity. But why would he help you and not me?"

"Sejuani and I are enemies," Lissandra said calmly, looking at Li Ke.

Li Ke shook his head, then said confidently, "He's helping me, not you."

"."

"Can you handle it?" Lissandra asked.

"I can," Li Ke replied.

Li Ke took a deep breath, got up from the ice chair, and walked towards Lissandra, saying as he went, "What I'm doing now is laying the foundation for what we'll do in the future. And I need your help, Lissandra. You're also very important in this process."

"What do I need to do?" Lissandra asked Li Ke.

"Put aside your hatred, step out of Frostguard Citadel, and appear before the world. The secrets of the past are no longer important. We must focus on the future. You, the Freljord, must unite and stand together."

Lissandra fell silent, seemingly deep in thought.

A moment later, she abruptly raised her head, looking at Li Ke with shock on Lissandra sculpted face. She said, "Is this why you didn't defeat Piltover, win over Bilgewater, and get Noxus and Ionia to put an end to the war?"

"You want to bind everyone to your side and then face the Void together?"

"To say they're tied to me is an exaggeration. We each have our own needs. They have what I need, and I can give them what they need." Lissandra pointed out Li Ke's plan, which didn't surprise Li Ke. Instead, he reached out and scratched his cheek.

He stood before Lissandra, looked up at Lissandra tall figure, and continued earnestly, "The Void is the enemy of Runeterra."

"But in the face of the Void, ordinary humans can do nothing." Lissandra nodded first, then shook her head.

Unity, huh? She and her sisters almost united all of humanity in Freljord, but... it's really hard for humans to unite; ultimately, it all comes down to self-interest.

Besides, even if humanity unites, what can it possibly do against the Void Monsters?

"Haha, that means you don't understand!" Li Ke said with a mocking expression, which made Lissandra somewhat dissatisfied.

She did come to Li Ke with a purpose, seeking Li Ke help, but... after all, she was a legendary figure, wasn't she? Li Ke's expression made it seem as if he looked down on her, mocking her for being stupid.

This made Lissandra very unhappy.

"What don't I understand?" she asked, her tone becoming more forceful.

"Don't underestimate humans, Lissandra. You were once human too," Li Ke said in a low, serious voice.

"Ancient Shurima was also an empire built by humans. The Ascended never claimed they were not human. Human potential surpasses that of all other beings. Over thousands of years, humans have grown from Freljord to spread throughout Runeterra, from seeking survival under the hands of Deity and wild magic to mastering magic."

Li Ke continued:

"Did you know? Twin Cities are currently researching new technology. If they succeed, I personally believe it will be a powerful product that is in no way inferior to the Demacia sculpture, and it can be mass-produced."

"Produce Demigod?" Lissandra frowned.

Li Ke shrugged. "So-called Demigod are nothing more than powerful beings. Their ability to control the wind and rain is indeed beyond human comprehension, but future humans will also be able to do it. Moreover, the scale and destructive power that Demigod can create, we in Zaun can now create as well."

"The girl with me, her name is Jinx. The Ultra Ultimate Death Rocket she developed can destroy a small mountain. And if she wanted to, using hundreds of Hextech Gem as the core and the best alchemical explosives as the power source, she could easily destroy a small country with a single shot. I ask you, is that power really any less than what you Demigod make?"

Lissandra remained silent.

Li Ke saw that she didn't speak, and just stared at her.

Then, Lissandra seemed to have made her choice. She placed her hands together in front of her abdomen and said softly, "Tell me, what should I do?"

"What you want me to do is different from what I should do." This means that Lissandra has agreed to Li Ke's decision.

Li Ke immediately told Lissandra his thoughts.

Lissandra agreed, and then she prepared to leave.

But before leaving, Li Ke asked her a question.

"Lissandra, Sejuani, and Ashe. Are they considered your older sisters?"

Lissandra, who was about to break free from the Dreamwalking state, paused for a moment, then raised her hand again and waved it gently.

Li Ke woke up from his dream, glanced at his watch, and saw that it was a little past four in the morning.

He slept for about three hours, and then he heard soft breathing beside him; it was Xiao Jin's voice.

A little further away, you could hear Donna sleeping.

"I really can't eat anymore. Could you save some for me so I can eat it next time? Please, please!"

Li Ke found Donna's sleep-talking amusing.

He shook his head, recalling the last words Lissandra had spoken before he woke up.

"Yes, but no, they are indeed the reincarnations of Avarosa and Serylda, but they are also themselves."

Li Ke stroked his chin and hummed twice.

"So proud and arrogant!"

"No wonder they killed so many reincarnations of Avarosa and Serylda, but didn't kill Ashe and Sejuani in this life. Is it because Ashe and Sejuani are real, and the rest are just rumors?"

Li Ke chuckled, shrank back down, and went back to sleep.

At the same time, the icy blue flames flickered. In the magnificent hall, a circle of floating ice appeared beneath the feet of a woman who was nearly three meters tall. The ice blocks moved like a pulley, carrying her body. She was covered in frost and wore an ugly crown. But with a flash of light, a woman who was only about 1.8 meters tall appeared in the hall.

Although still quite tall, compared to someone who is three meters tall, someone who is 1.8 meters tall is really tiny.

The crown disappeared, white hair cascaded down her shoulders, she wore a long white dress, and her bare, fair feet lifted her leg as she walked forward.

She lowered her head and looked down at her feet, only to see an incredibly evil gaze fixed on her between them. As if it had also noticed her presence, the evil gaze sharpened, and in a daze, Lissandra seemed to see an enormous eyeball move.

Yes, that is the Void, and they can move now.

Surprisingly, Lissandra didn't seem bothered at all.

In the past, seeing them move would make Lissandra feel irritable, anxious, and helpless, but at this moment, besides being somewhat speechless, she actually felt a sense of relief.

Lissandra couldn't explain this feeling.

She has been suppressed by the Void for nearly ten thousand years. For ten thousand years, everything she has done has been to fight against the Void. Apart from Ornn, only some of Lissandra's subordinates know about this.

But now, there's another person who knows about this, and that guy. He says he made a mistake, but a wrong choice, and that he's not scary. Most importantly, this guy knows more than she does.

He also said that what he was doing was to deal with the Void.

Thinking of this, the woman relaxed her shoulders, raised her pretty face, and the hair on her croissant was blown by the cold wind, swaying and brushing past her eyes. Her pale pupils were lifeless, but at the corners of her eyes, the frost of years of indifference melted away, and a smile spread out.

Lissandra's cool voice echoed in the hall.

"Then you'd better keep your word."

Two days later, Winter's Claw.

The soldiers stared in disbelief at the enormous shipping containers before them. When one container was opened, the contents spilling out made them instinctively swallow hard.

"Oh my god!"

"Food, all food!"

"And this big box is full of food too! It must weigh over a thousand pounds!"

"Here, here are clothes! They can be worn by the elderly and children!"

"They're here too!"

The warriors of Winter's Claw possessed immense strength; they worked in groups of three or five to pull the containers out of the frozen ground and carry them back to their camp.

"You, come with me for a moment."

Just as Li Ke was wondering if the supplies had been distributed as he had instructed, a voice rang in his ear.

Li Ke looked over and saw that it was Sejuani face was flushed.

She was no longer as indifferent as before; a blush appeared on her sickly pale face, and she looked at Li Ke with trembling lips.

Li Ke thought for a moment, patted Xiao Jin's arm, and then led her into Sejuani's house.

As soon as he followed them inside, Li Ke heard Sejuani's voice.

"This afternoon, I'll have Donna lead a group of people to send the Noxus prisoners of war out of Freljord. Then, I'll have all the tribes search the surrounding area to find the man you're looking for named Darius."

Sejuani said loudly.

"Okay, the second batch of supplies will arrive in a few days. Don't worry, Sejuani. I know you don't want the Winter's Claw to live a farming life, and you don't want the Winter's Claw to become like Ashe. So after this is over, let's use handicrafts to exchange supplies between the Twin Cities and the Winter's Claw."

"Okay." Sejuani nodded, looking at Li Ke, her eyes welling up with tears.

Feeling a bit strange Li Ke stared at like that by Sejuani.

Well, Sejuani is undeniably beautiful. Aside from being incredibly tall and muscular, Sejuani face is strikingly handsome, possessing a unique kind of beauty.

This kind of beauty wouldn't be rejected by Li Ke, who often reads doujinshi. After all, muscular women and the like aren't exactly Li Ke's fetishes, but he'll still look at things that are attractive.

"I have something else to say," Sejuani suddenly said, and Udyr, who was beside her, closed his eyes upon hearing this.

"Please speak," Li Ke replied.

"I want to form a blood pact with you," Sejuani said hesitantly.

She wasn't hesitant because of romantic relationships, but rather because she didn't know if her people could accept that their Warmother's blood alliance was with an outsider.

"Huh? What? A blood pact?! Me and you?" Li Ke stared at Sejuani.

No!

Li Ke knows what blood oaths and such are!

From Ashe's story, Li Ke learned what the blood oath of Freljord was.

To put it bluntly, they were a married couple!

Sejuani, yes. Yes, yes.

Li Ke hesitated, wanting to refuse, not because he looked down on Sejuani, but Li Ke didn't have the inclination to share a woman with anyone. Although, with Sejuani, it was hard to say who would be playing whom.

Freljord is a matriarchal society where people practice polyandry, not polygyny.

Before Li Ke could even speak, Jinx asked curiously, "Li Ke, is she going to become sworn sisters with you?"

"Say yes! If you say yes, Donna will give me that little wolf," Jinx said with a grin.

If Li Ke and Sejuani become sworn brothers, then Li Ke will have a voice in this tribe, right? If Li Ke has a voice, then I have a voice, hmph!

"???"

Promise?

Li Ke looked at Jinx strangely, speechless. No, if I really agreed, you wouldn't be happy!

"Brother?"

Sejuani frowned, looked at Jinx, and said, "You've misunderstood."

"A blood oath isn't a sworn brotherhood; to be precise, I'm going to marry him," Sejuani explained.

"?"

"Marry whom?" Jinx and Li Ke both Kog'Maw, not quite understanding.

"Marry him." Sejuani pointed at Li Ke and said very seriously.

Li Ke covered his face with his hands.

The next second, just as Li Ke had predicted.

"I'll marry you!"

"You dare steal my man, you son of a bitch!"

"You xxx!"

"Are you XXX?!"

Li Ke wrapped his arms around Jinx's slender waist, while Jinx stretched out her arms forward. To Sejuani's puzzled look, Zaun slurred from her cute little mouth, and Jinx made a gesture as if she were about to scratch Sejuani's face.

Are you kidding me!

Jinx is furious!

She thought a blood oath meant sworn brotherhood!

Does the result mean marriage?!

No, Sejuani said she was going to marry Li Ke. Jinx didn't quite understand at first. Marry? A woman marrying a man?

It's usually the woman who gets married, okay?!

No, that's not the point anymore!

The key point is!

This woman is trying to steal my man!

Jinx.

It's gotten all puffed up!
