"Other than Master Ye, no one could accomplish such a thing."

A cold voice devoid of any emotional fluctuation came from beside them.

It belonged to a breathtakingly beautiful woman.

Her long silver hair cascaded down her back all the way to her ankles.

Not only was it soft and smooth, but it also possessed a texture like silver crystal.

Her beauty was beyond the reach of words; no description could do justice to her peerless face.

Her fair skin was slightly pale, and her eyes were violet.

Even dressed in nothing more than an ordinary white shirt, she still looked incredibly alluring.

Her eyes were incomparably beautiful.

Her long, curled lashes framed clear, translucent violet eyes.

Especially when a trace of confusion appeared in her gaze, she inspired an irresistible urge to cherish her.

The Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena!

She had awakened and was also observing the Sky Screen Scroll.

Her gaze was fixed firmly on the name among the options.

Ye Mu!

"Di Tian, is Master Ye in Heaven Dou City?"

"Yes. The previous question asked for The Strongest's location, and the correct answer was Heaven Dou City."

"So Master Ye is in Heaven Dou City!"

Di Tian answered respectfully.

He possessed absolute loyalty toward The Master.

"Good. We leave for Heaven Dou City now!"

Gu Yuena gave the order decisively.

Since she already knew Master Ye's location, she naturally had to go find him.

Even though she knew Ye Mu disliked being disturbed.

After not seeing him for so many years, she truly could not hold herself back.

"I can see Master Ye again?"

Xiong Jun scratched his head and grinned broadly.

Gu Yuena said nothing and swiftly left Life Lake.

Di Tian and the others hurried after her, both nervous and excited.

A beam of light descended from the Sky Screen Scroll.

Snow Empress flew into the sky and entered the Sky Screen Scroll, appearing before all the living beings of Douluo Continent for the first time.

The moment she appeared, those who had been clamoring about punishing her immediately fell silent.

Those who had cursed her for answering incorrectly also lost their voices at that moment.

Because when someone's appearance was beautiful enough to stir one's soul.

People's values could follow their facial features.

"So, so beautiful!"

"She's stunning!"

Within Blue Tyrant Academy, Ma Hongjun stared at Snow Empress in the Sky Screen Scroll, drool practically streaming from his mouth.

Among the Shrek Seven Devils, he was still the only one without a girlfriend.

Snow Empress's appearance made his eyes fill with hearts.

"She truly is beautiful—breathtakingly so. What a pity she belongs to the Soul Beast Clan!"

Flender shook his head.

Even an old man in his fifties like him had been moved by her appearance.

But she was from the Soul Beast Clan.

If she answered correctly, it would definitely not be good news for humanity.

"Don't worry. The Soul Beast Clan knows nothing about human affairs. She won't answer correctly!"

Yu Xiaogang seemed extremely confident.

Or perhaps he simply did not dare imagine how outrageous Snow Empress's reward would be if she answered correctly.

Nor did he want Snow Empress to answer correctly.

Because he had answered incorrectly and been punished!

Now, aside from the Shrek Seven Devils and those around him.

Everyone else had to answer incorrectly for him to feel more balanced.

Xue Beng was at Heaven Dou Academy.

The moment he saw Snow Empress's appearance, he completely lost control.

Although his playboy persona was an act, he truly could not restrain his attraction to a beauty of Snow Empress's caliber.

So what if she belonged to the Soul Beast Clan?

As long as she was beautiful enough, that was all that mattered!

[Answerer, state your answer!]

[You have one incense stick's time to think!]

The Sky Screen's voice rang out.

Snow Empress looked downward from within the Sky Screen Scroll, as though she had seen the person she longed to meet.

"Teacher, I will definitely find you! Don't you dare run!"

"My answer is option four: Ye Mu!"

Inside Moonlight Pavilion's private room.

Ye Mu's mouth twitched violently several times.

What the hell?

She was coming to find him?

And she was even threatening him?

With his deep understanding of Snow Empress, he could clearly hear the threat in her words.

Good grief, were students these days really this crazy?

She actually dared threaten her teacher. What a rebellious disciple!

"Master Ye, she isn't your student, is she?"

Qian Renxue was a little suspicious.

She was answering a question in the Sky Screen Scroll, yet she had said something like that.

Judging by the question she had answered, there was a strong possibility that her teacher was Ye Mu.

After all, she was a nine-hundred-and-ninety-thousand-year soul beast.

Only Ye Mu should have been capable of nurturing a soul beast of that level.

"Hm? Who knows."

Ye Mu did not admit it.

He was considering finding a time to leave Heaven Dou City.

Now that his location had been exposed, some people—or beasts—might come looking for him.

That would be troublesome!

It would be one thing if it were them.

But other factions or Soul Masters might come bother him too.

Thinking about the troublesome life ahead, he felt utterly miserable.

He only wanted to live a peaceful life. Why was that so difficult?

Qian Renxue had already reached her conclusion.

Snow Empress was Ye Mu's disciple!

Good grief, he not only nurtured human powerhouses, but even nurtured soul beasts?

In his eyes, was there no difference between humans and soul beasts?

She found it hard to understand.

Humans were humans, and soul beasts were soul beasts.

They were different races.

Why would anyone cast aside the prejudice between races?

She did not know that Ye Mu could be considered human, yet could also be said not to be.

Because his true race was the Undead Race!

An existence that never died, eternal and indestructible.

Over the long years, he had seen countless living beings and countless races.

Naturally, he held no prejudice toward humans or soul beasts.

In the end, they were all merely living beings of this world.

No one was inherently noble or lowly.

[Congratulations, you answered correctly!]

The Sky Screen swiftly made its judgment.

Snow Empress had answered correctly!

After the Sky Screen's judgment appeared, Yu Xiaogang forced himself to stand.

He raised his head to look at the Sky Screen Scroll, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

At last, after so many questions, he had finally gotten one right.

And it had even been through meticulous "analysis."

"Xiaogang, you were right. It really was that Ye Mu!"

Liu Erlong was very good at providing emotional support.

Flender also said, "Xiaogang, you'll have to keep an eye on the later questions too. What a pity this time it was someone from the Soul Beast Clan, not someone from our Blue Tyrant Academy."

If it had been someone from Blue Tyrant Academy, the reward would certainly have gone to one of their own.

Unfortunately, not only was she not from Blue Tyrant Academy, she was not even human!

That truly stung.

"No problem. I'll handle the later questions."

Yu Xiaogang spoke calmly.

He felt the gloom in his heart vanish in an instant.

"I just wonder what reward the Sky Screen will give her. If it is also a Divinity, that will be troublesome."

"But judging from the question's difficulty, the reward this time should not be too outrageous. After all, it was far too easy."

Yu Xiaogang seemed very certain.

For such a simple question, the rewards could not possibly be that generous again, could they?

"At last, we can see what kind of person that strongest expert called Ye Mu is. He is also in Heaven Dou City, so we can visit him when the time comes."

"If we can invite him to join Blue Tyrant Academy..."

The moment Flender heard that, he became incomparably excited.

The world's strongest expert joining Blue Tyrant Academy?

If that truly happened, Blue Tyrant Academy would instantly become the number one academy on Douluo Continent.

Moreover, they could receive guidance from The Strongest.

They might even obtain Million-Year Soul Rings, and their Soul Power would rise to terrifying heights.
