The scene shifted.

Amid the endless wind and snow, atop a snow-capped mountain,

a white figure stood alone.

The woman wore a plain white dress, her features exquisitely cold. Behind her stood a green-haired girl.

Behind them rose hill after hill of snow. If one looked closer, they would discover that the rolling snow mounds were actually Soul Beasts crawling on the ground with their heads bowed...

"Bing'er, don't worry. I'll act with caution!"

The Snow Empress raised her head to look at the Sky Screen, her expression calm.

Only deep within her blue eyes flickered a trace of barely noticeable anticipation.

"I'll leave the Extreme North to you for now!"

Flying snow brushed past her robes, as though heaven and earth had paused for her.

"A Soul Beast? Such an incomparably beautiful woman is actually a Soul Beast?"

On Sea God Island, Ma Hongjun's eyes widened.

"What's so strange about a transformed Soul Beast? Isn't Xiao Wu one too?"

Dai Mubai shrugged, then turned to Tang San.

"Little San, what do you think?"

Tang San nodded absentmindedly.

He was still thinking about Tang Chen.

He had never expected the King of Slaughter to be his great-grandfather.

That Blood Swan Kiss he had thrown back then... hopefully it had not caused any major problems.

Even if it had truly caused some consequences, it had been for the good of the continent.

"I only did what most people wanted to do but could not.

"Although there was a tiny bit of selfishness involved, I believe Great-Grandfather would understand!

"Besides, given his current state... perhaps he would even be grateful that I helped free him!"

Tang San comforted himself.

Just then, the final substitute contestant appeared!

[ Ding, third selected participant: Thousand-Year Soft Bone Charm Rabbit (possessing the body of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast) ]

A somewhat dazed-looking rabbit appeared on the Sky Screen. With pink eyes and snow-white fur, it looked utterly harmless.

"Third Brother, look! Isn't that Xiao Wu?"

Ma Hongjun abruptly slapped Tang San on the shoulder.

Tang San snapped back to his senses. He glanced at the Sky Screen, then suddenly looked at Xiao Wu in his arms. His expression changed at once.

"No... impossible!"

"It can't be her. It absolutely can't be!"

His arms suddenly tightened, locking Xiao Wu tightly against him. Blood vessels burst in his eyes, and he was nearly crazed.

"Whoever dares take Xiao Wu away, I'll fight him to the death!"

Tang San broke down, but he still immediately thought to kneel and beg Bo Saixi beside him.

"High Priest, please save Xiao Wu! I'm willing to pay any price!"

"Sorry, but there's nothing I can do either!"

Bo Saixi shook her head, her gaze cold.

When Tang Chen was selected, you did not react at all?

He is your great-grandfather!

Now, for the sake of a rabbit, you finally know how to panic?

I was worried about Tang Chen!

Without the filter of Tang Chen's great-grandson, Tang San was nothing but a piece of trash in her eyes.

If she had not been wary of the Sea God, she would have long since cleaned up this unfilial descendant for Tang Chen!

"You are the Sea God's High Priest, the Sea God's representative. If even you can't do it, then can't the Sea God do it either?"

Tang San demanded hoarsely.

"If I can't even protect Xiao Wu, then I might as well give up this Sea God Trial!"

"Bastard!"

Bo Saixi slapped Tang San across the face.

"Is the Sea God Trial something you can simply say you don't want?"

Tang San rolled all the way down the trial steps and crashed onto the ground.

"Third Brother, Little San..."

Dai Mubai and the others hurriedly rushed over to help Tang San up. They glared angrily at the figure atop the heavenly steps, yet forcibly suppressed their rage.

"High Priest, please calm your anger! Third Brother only misspoke in his panic..."

"Little San, let's endure this for now!"

"Yeah, maybe this is Xiao Wu's opportunity!"

They did not want to lose the chance at the Sea God Trial. How could they abandon such a great fortune over a rabbit?

Tang San came to his senses as well.

He could not offend Bo Saixi yet. He still needed to endure and increase his strength.

"Tang San was reckless. I ask the High Priest for forgiveness!"

Tang San clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, but in the end, he lowered his head.

Bo Saixi did not look at him again.

Because at that moment, three golden pillars of light that pierced heaven and earth descended with a thunderous roar, enveloping the selected participants.

Xiao Wu, in Tang San's arms, was one of them.

[Transmission begins]

Beneath the golden light, the rabbit's figure gradually became transparent.

No matter how Tang San grabbed at her, he could not hold on.

He could only watch helplessly as Xiao Wu vanished before his eyes, helplessness and fury flooding his heart.

He pounded the ground again and again until blood seeped from his fists.

In his heart, he had already sentenced Bo Saixi to death!

Star Dou Great Forest.

When Da Ming and Er Ming saw Xiao Wu's figure appear on the Sky Screen, they immediately exploded.

"Trash, trash! Tang San is nothing but trash!"

Er Ming beat his chest, making the forest trees tremble wildly as birds and beasts scattered.

He had clearly promised to protect Xiao Wu.

Was this his protection?

"Er Ming, calm down!"

Da Ming said in a deep voice, fury suppressed in his eyes as well.

"This can't be blamed on him. The Sky Screen is simply... too mysterious and too powerful!"

Though he said so,

the rage in his chest did not diminish in the slightest.

The next time he saw Tang San, he would absolutely tear him apart without hesitation!

At the bottom of Life Lake.

When Di Tian saw that the Sky Screen had not selected anyone from their side, he let out a breath of relief.

As for the Soul Beasts of the Extreme North.

As for those Soul Beasts in the Extreme North... since they had never obeyed his commands,

they could not be considered his people.

Whether they lived or died, what did it have to do with him?
