Deep within the core region of the Far North.
Outside Snow Empress's Ice Crystal Palace, a massive Ice Bear charged toward the palace.
He moved with incredible speed, sending snow flying everywhere he passed and leaving a deep trail behind him.
This giant bear was Snow Empress's adopted son, the Ice Bear King, Xiao Bai.
Just as he approached the palace, he suddenly leaped into the air. Light flashed around his body, and he rapidly shrank.
In the blink of an eye, the Ice Bear King, Xiao Bai, had transformed into an honest-looking little chubby boy and hopped toward the palace gates.
As he ran, the fat on his belly jiggled with every step, making him look adorably clumsy.
"Mom, Mom, why did you call me here?" Xiao Bai shouted before he had even entered the palace.
When he ran into the hall and saw Su Mo beside Snow Empress, he froze.
"Huh? Human, it's you! Did you come back to help my mom?" The Ice Bear King ran over excitedly.
Su Mo smiled faintly. "Yes."
"That's wonderful!" The Ice Bear King was overjoyed.
At that moment, Snow Empress spoke beside Su Mo. "Xiao Bai, Mommy called you here this time because there is something important I need to tell you. You must listen carefully. As for whether you agree, that will be your own decision."
"Okay, Mom. Go ahead. I'll listen carefully," Xiao Bai said seriously as he looked at Snow Empress.
Snow Empress said, "There is a very talented human. In the future, she has a high chance of obtaining a God's inheritance. Even if she does not obtain one, she will still be able to ascend to the God Realm someday."
"So Mommy wants to ask whether you would be willing to sacrifice yourself to that human.
