"Brother Sky Dream." Huo Yuhao was still somewhat worried at this moment.
"Relax, Yuhao! With me here, nothing will happen!" Tian Meng said.
Although Tian Meng said that, Huo Yuhao still felt that something was dangerous.
Just then, sounds seemed to come from nearby. It seemed like someone was approaching—no, it should have been many soul beasts approaching!
"Tian Meng... Brother Sky Dream..." Huo Yuhao finally began to grow nervous. Tian Meng was also confused. He had clearly only wanted the Ice Empress to come over, so why were so many soul beasts coming?
Moreover, he did not seem to know these people. They had no relationship whatsoever. If they attacked—or rather, if these soul beasts attacked—they likely would not show mercy.
"Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, are you trying to die? The boss just left, and you came to cause trouble for us! Perfect, we can hand you over to the boss!"
A male soul beast said.
"Looks like we have to capture you. You escaped last time, and now you think you're so damn impressive, huh?!"
"This time, we'll chop you into eight pieces!"
Another voice rang out. These two soul beasts were both of the Ice Empress's kind and were her underlings, named A-Zuo and A-You.
They were responsible for leading the Ice Empress's subordinates.
"Looks like we need to run... It's not the Ice Empress! Run! Watch my spiritual attack!"
Tian Meng realized that things had gone terribly wrong, so he quickly released his spiritual energy.
It caused them considerable trouble. Sure enough, once the spiritual energy was unleashed, the soul beasts led by A-Zuo and A-You were immediately affected. But just as Tian Meng took control of Huo Yuhao's body and tried to flee, an ice bird appeared.
The ice bird seized Huo Yuhao on the spot—or rather, Tian Meng, who was controlling Huo Yuhao's body.
"Brother Sky Dream, what you said was a lie, wasn't it? You're not actually some powerful soul beast? And you weren't fully prepared either. We haven't even met one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts yet, and judging from what her underlings said, she left long ago."
Although Huo Yuhao said nothing at the moment, he could understand that Tian Meng had probably deceived him. He was not some top-tier soul beast at all. Otherwise, why would the underlings of the Ice Empress—one of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North and one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts—not be afraid after learning that Tian Meng had come?
If Tian Meng really was as formidable as he claimed, would these soul beasts, which had not even reached two hundred thousand years of cultivation, be rushing over so eagerly to capture him?
It was obvious that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had lied from the very beginning when he first met Huo Yuhao. Although Huo Yuhao had harbored some doubts at first, this was a million-year Soul Ring after all.
And in Huo Yuhao's eyes, even if Tian Meng had exaggerated his own strength, as a million-year soul beast, he should have had at least some ability. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's strength should have been at least around the level of a Title Douluo.
But when he saw so many soul beasts coming to hunt them down, Tian Meng immediately said they had to run. Clearly, Tian Meng was not even as strong as a Title Douluo. He had a million years of cultivation, yet had no idea how to use it and did not even have combat experience.
"I'm really sorry. Actually, my strength is very weak. I came here because..."
"What exactly are you here for? You have to tell me!"
Under Huo Yuhao's questioning, Tian Meng helplessly told the truth.
"Actually, I brought you here to find the Ice Empress because I've liked her for a very long time. I know the Ice Empress ultimately cannot withstand the four-hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation, so this God-Making Plan is also meant to help the one I love extend her life. I hope the one I love can like me and think highly of me.
"So I tricked you into coming here in order to complete this plan."
When Huo Yuhao heard Tian Meng say this, he completely broke down. He had trusted Tian Meng so much, only to find that Tian Meng had merely tricked him here—and even dragged him into this mess.
With so many soul beasts here, they were bound to tear them limb from limb.
"Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, I never expected you to become a human's Soul Ring. You really do have some nerve. Becoming a human's Soul Ring when you're one of our Far North elders—you've lived for a million years! Yet you actually became a human's Soul Ring. You've disgraced the Far North.
"I assume you voluntarily became this human's Soul Ring. Otherwise, there's no way you could have retained your self-awareness."
A-You said unhappily. Clearly, he was displeased that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had become a human's Soul Ring. If Tian Meng had perished together with a human, that would have been one thing. Even if he had died in battle, A-You would not have said anything. But Tian Meng had obviously chosen to become a human's Soul Ring himself.
That made A-You even more dissatisfied. The Far North was not to be trifled with—how could they possibly tolerate humans?
"Everyone, may I ask where Bingbing went? Why did I come looking for Bingbing, only to find that she's nowhere to be found?"
"Looks like you're still secretly in love with our boss. But do you even deserve to secretly love our boss? What our boss likes is a man who stands tall between heaven and earth—or maybe she wants to get lesbian with Snowy. *"*
"Anyway, that's not the point. You, a guy who became a human's Soul Ring, think you deserve to like our boss? Dream on!"
Tian Meng was still rather shaken after hearing that.
"Um, I want to tell you something. I hope I can meet Bingbing. I have a God-Making Plan that can grant Bingbing and me infinite life.
"Isn't Bingbing currently troubled by the Heavenly Tribulation? My..."
"No need." Before Tian Meng could finish, A-Zuo directly interrupted him.
"Our boss is currently making a deal with a human and obtained an Immortal Herb called the Transformation Herb. With this Immortal Herb, she can transform into a human and avoid the Heavenly Tribulation."
"What!" Tian Meng had originally thought that he could use the God-Making Plan to persuade these underlings, or at least get them to let him meet the Ice Empress. But now, that was impossible.
"Brother Sky Dream, I think we're in big trouble now, aren't we?"
"Who was it? Who stole my Bingbing before I could get to her?!"
At this moment, both Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm understood that they were in serious trouble.
"Forget it. Take these people to the boss."
After saying that, Tian Meng and Huo Yuhao were tied up and then sent to the Ice Empress.
Let us turn back time for a while.
Zhong Kui and Electrolux had arrived in the Far North before Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
"This place is truly freezing. Good thing I'm fire-attributed."
