"You..." Ice Empress truly found it hard to believe while in this city, but the issue was that Zhong Kui dared to let Ice Empress go and meet the Beast God Di Tian.
In that case, logically speaking, this suggests that what Zhong Kui said might actually be true.
Zhong Kui's confidence implies that this matter could very well be reality.
"Ice Empress, I can tell you clearly that what I said is true. Although I cannot prove the matter regarding that evil god—that is, the person known as Tang San—the fact remains that this man wants to turn the Douluo Continent into his own private backyard. If I hadn't come to recruit you, you would have been schemed against by others as well. This is not just nonsense."
After hearing Zhong Kui say this, Ice Empress began to reflect, as she did have some understanding of the stories surrounding Tang San.
Tang San is praised by the people of the Douluo Continent as a pure, noble, and selfless existence. Ice Empress herself did not truly know Tang San; the stories she heard were those deified and beautified by the nobles of the Douluo Continent.
Or rather, these were stories intentionally embellished by the nobles of the Douluo Continent, because in their view, only in this way could they highlight that they were righteous and that the Martial Soul Hall was evil.
Only in this way could they prove that the Martial Soul Hall were thieves attempting to usurp power, and only then could they manifest their own righteousness. Only if someone as pure and noble as him opposed the Martial Soul Hall could it prove that the Martial Soul Hall was wrong.
But the truth is, the Martial Soul Hall was right, the nobles of the two great empires of the Douluo Continent were wrong, and you, Tang San, are certainly not some pure and noble person. Tang San is someone who harbors a monster within his heart.
Tang San's inner self is an ugly monster; the only reason he looks good is because he possesses the bloodline of the Blue Silver Emperor.
The nobles of the Douluo Continent tout Tang San just like the cooperation with Ning Fengzhi. This Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would go to the Heaven Dou Empire's auction house every time to buy slaves and then release them, but in reality, it was all a staged act.
After releasing the slaves, the hunters from those slave auction houses would capture them again, hand them over to the nobles, and return the money to Ning Fengzhi. It was all a well-rehearsed play.
Do you really think this old fox is a good person? It was all a performance; on the surface, he acts like a good person, but his heart is actually incredibly ugly.
Or rather, the nobles of the Douluo Continent are all quite ugly.
Ning Fengzhi thought that investing in Tang San would yield returns, but in reality, he suffered retribution. The daughter he raised is a love-struck fool who only cared about dating Oscar and never chose to resurrect her two grandfathers. Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo gave their all to help Tang San retrieve his body and ended up dying miserably, and what was the result? Tang San never resurrected them at all. That is truly ironic.
Oscar and Ning Rongrong's combined divine skill could resurrect the dead, yet they chose not to resurrect Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo; it is truly speechless. Moreover, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has no descendants from Ning Rongrong, and there is no one left to inherit the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul.
It can be said that Ning Fengzhi is truly a clown, and this can be considered his retribution for doing too many evil deeds.
The current Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, although renamed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, still lacks the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul. Its strength has fallen to a second-rate power, perhaps even at the very bottom of the second-rate.
This is also the retribution for investing in a person like Tang San.
This also confirms that Tang San is no good; he is just a petty person.
"..." Ice Empress didn't say anything at this moment, instead, she fell into deep thought.
"What do you mean when you say I will be schemed against by others? How does this Tang San intend to scheme against me?"
"To put it simply, a Child of Luck has been born on the Douluo Continent. He has grown up and has already cooperated with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. But the problem is, they don't know that person is the Child of Luck. They have already devised a God-Making Plan, intending for you to become that Child of Luck's martial soul and soul ring. However, Tang San intends to scheme against this Child of Luck, making him a son-in-law of his Tang Clan—which is also a form of slavery. The fact that he only had an Innate Soul Power of level one yet could possess the sacrifice of a million-year soul beast is proof of this."
"..." Ice Empress didn't know what to say after hearing all of this.
"In any case, let us hurry to see Snow Empress. It is a good thing for you and for us. We have no intention of harming you; we only want to cooperate with you."
"Let's go."
Soon, the two of them traveled at maximum speed to the deeper reaches of the core area of the Far North, where Snow Empress resided.
"Bing'er?"
"Xue'er, a human has come to seek our cooperation. You should talk to this person."
"A human?" Snow Empress was stunned to hear that a human wanted to cooperate with them. What human could be so bold as to dare to cooperate with them?
"Human, what is your objective?" Snow Empress asked directly: "What is your objective?"
"I am here to cooperate." Zhong Kui then took out a Transformation Herb.
"Respected Overlord of the Far North, once you absorb this Transformation Herb, you will be able to transform into a human. Furthermore, your essence will remain that of a soul beast, allowing you to avoid the 700,000-year heavenly tribulation. What I want is for you to cooperate with us."
"...Bing'er? Is what this human says true?"
"What he says is true; I have already absorbed one."
"What is your objective?"
"Xue'er, this human told me on the way here. Let me tell you what he said..."
Ice Empress then recounted everything she had heard. After hearing this, Snow Empress was also skeptical.
"I can clearly guarantee, Snow Empress, that our cooperation is good for everyone. I want to overthrow the God Realm's erroneous rule and also overthrow the plans of that bastard Tang San. Our cooperation is the best choice. As long as we work together, we can stop Tang San's plan and prevent the Douluo Continent from becoming one man's private backyard."
"..." Although Snow Empress had begun to take an interest, the problem was that there was no evidence for this matter. The fact that soul beasts suffer suppression by humans can be proven, and one could directly ask the Beast God Di Tian, but the issue is...
"You should absorb this Transformation Herb first. This is my sincerity. You can think about it slowly; I can wait for you for a while."
"...Very well." Snow Empress then began to absorb the Transformation Herb. Afterward, the two Empresses of Ice and Snow began to ponder.
"Do you think this human's words can be trusted? Although I feel that some of what this human said might be true, the problem is that most of it is too fantastical. It is hard for me to believe what he said."
