Ghost Demon Venerable had been quiet for a long time,
but Huo Yuhao wouldn't forget about that old geezer.
Huo Yuhao didn't believe Ghost Demon Venerable would behave himself.
There was only one possible reason for being so quiet now:
he was winding up for something big.
Huo Yuhao was helpless to do anything about it.
As for Ice Empress, that had only been a small test.
Huo Yuhao could confirm it now.
That old geezer had been putting on an act earlier, just to scare him.
A little teasing was one thing, but would Ghost Demon Venerable really be shaken by something like that?
That was pure wishful thinking.
Even Huo Yuhao didn't believe it.
Huo Yuhao drew back his gaze and refocused on what was in front of him.
"All right, Brother Sky Dream. Quit wailing."
He gave Sky Dream Ice Silkworm a kick. "Time to get to work. I can absorb a third Soul Ring of around fifty thousand years now."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm immediately stopped crying, climbed to its feet, and patted its belly.
"Fifty thousand years? Are you sure you can handle it?"
Huo Yuhao nodded, completely certain.
After absorbing Ice Empress's Soul Bone and Soul Ring, his physical strength was enough to crush Soul Elders of the same level. He could even hold his own against most Four-Ring Soul Ancestors.
With Huo Yuhao's confident answer, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm perked right up.
"Leave it to me! When it comes to finding Ice Silkworms, no one in the Extreme North can beat me!"
It thumped its chest as it made its solemn promise. Huo Yuhao could only stare at it, speechless.
Good grief.
It cowered when facing enemies, but when it came to selling out its own kind, it hit them with all it
