A Snow Lotus Sparks a Long-Term Partnership, the Ice and Snow Empresses Become Bodyguards
Inside the main hall, steaming hot tea was rising in wisps of white vapor.
Ye Qing chuckled twice, then touched his nose with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"Snow Empress Majesty, I truly did not know before that the 100,000-year-old Iceberg Snow Lotus was something you kept to save your life."
"If I had known earlier, I definitely wouldn't have touched it at all."
"I stole your opportunity, which is really unfair of me."
"If there's anything I can do to make amends for you right now, just ask, and I'll go through fire and water for you without batting an eye!"
Ye Qing patted his chest, his tone extremely sincere.
He stole someone else's Transformation route, which they had prepared for tens of thousands of years.
Although it was an accident, we must take this matter seriously.
The Snow Empress sat serenely on the ice chair, her exquisite face as calm as still water.
She gently shook her head, her cool voice echoing throughout the hall.
"There's no point in dwelling on the causes and effects of the past."
"Your cultivation level is still low, so there's really nothing you can do to help me right now."
"What I seek is not your present, but your future."
future?
Ye Qing blinked, completely confused.
What future could Soul Master like myself, who is still far from becoming a Titled Douluo, possibly have in mind for a ruler of the Far North with 600,000 years of cultivation?
Before Ye Qing could figure it out, Ice Empress finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Human brat, stop playing dumb!"
The Ice Empress gave a huff, her tone extremely unfriendly. "I ask you, is your so-called strange space really as sinister as Xue'er said? Can it really conceal the secrets of heaven?"
Upon hearing the words "concealing the secrets of heaven," Ye Qing's eyelids twitched violently.
He knew, of course, that Ice Empress was referring to his own Chaos World.
It can conceal the secrets of heaven... What does this mean?
All he knew was that the Chaos World inside the Chaos Pearl was a place that could hold living things.
Seeing Ye Qing's blank expression,
The Snow Empress explained, "Previously, when I was in your Chaos World, I noticed that the energy of heaven and earth outside was somewhat obscured and blurred."
"Even the oppressive force of the Heavenly Tribulation that had hung over my head for hundreds of thousands of years, like a shadow, weakened somewhat in that turbid space."
"Your Chaos World is far more valuable than that mere snow lotus."
At this point, Snow Empress's sapphire-like eyes gleamed.
"Your Chaos World has shown me another path to survival."
"Concealing the secrets of heaven, weakening the laws!"
"As long as that realm can completely block out external perception, I and Bing'er may be able to forever avert the threat of Heavenly Tribulation!"
This is the real reason why Snow Empress took the initiative to lower its stance and seek cooperation!
This was the only glimmer of hope she saw in her desperate situation!
The Snow Empress's eyes flashed with a sharp light as she spoke each word clearly, "You previously said that your Chaos World would expand and evolve as your cultivation level breaks through."
"What I'm betting on is the day your Chaos World fully matures and can truly isolate itself from the laws of heaven and earth of the Douluo Continent."
"That way, we can conceal the secrets of Bing'er and avoid Death Tribulation!"
Ye Qing was completely stunned on the spot.
Holy crap?!
My own Chaos Pearl actually possesses this natural, built-in "anti- Heavenly Dao Radar Monitoring" stealth attribute?
This is not a personal space; it is clearly a refuge that shields us from divine intervention!
Even Ferocious Beast for 600,000 years fears nothing more than the cataclysmic Heavenly Tribulation that occurs every 100,000 years.
If one's own Chaos World could truly sever the connection to the Heavenly Tribulation,
Wouldn't the Ferocious Beast of the Far North essentially be a bug in the world's system?
Thinking of this,
Ye Qing swallowed.
He timidly raised his eyes and asked, "Um... Lady Snow Empress, may I ask a rather ominous question?"
"What if... I mean, what if?"
"When my cultivation reaches its limit and the Chaos World has finished evolving, but it still won't be able to completely conceal the secrets of heaven, what will happen to me then?"
The moment these words were spoken, the aura of the Ice Empress next to him suddenly darkened.
"What? What else can happen?!"
"If you dare to let Xue'er's expectations be in vain, I will chop you into mincemeat and feed you to the ice wolves of the Far North!"
"Bing'er, stop fooling around."
Snow Empress coldly stopped the irritable Ice Empress.
She looked at Xiang Ye Qing with no murderous intent in her eyes, but rather with an extremely clear and open-minded expression.
"As I just said, this is a gamble."
"Since it's a gamble, there will naturally be winners and losers."
"If this is the will of Heaven, even if you ultimately fail, I will never harm you in the slightest."
"If anyone is to blame, it's only my fate."
At this point, Snow Empress's tone shifted slightly, becoming authoritative and dignified. "But all of this is predicated on the condition that you do not die."
"The world of human Soul Master is a dog-eat-dog world, full of deceit and treachery."
"If you perish before you truly mature, I will have already lost this gamble."
"Therefore, as a condition of the deal, until you grow up, I and Bing'er will do everything in our power to ensure your safety."
"Ha?"
Ye Qing was shocked!
What the heck?
Protect yourself?
The Snow Empress, the supreme ruler of the Far North, and the Ice Empress, with over 300,000 years of cultivation, are going to be his protectors?
This is absolutely divine treatment!
Even Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in Douluo Continent II: The Unrivaled Tang Clan, after all her efforts in creating a god-making plan, didn't receive this kind of treatment!
"Wait... Lady Snow Empress."
Ye Qing suppressed the overwhelming joy in his heart and chuckled dryly, "You two are both rulers of the Far North, you can't be absent from your posts every day, can you?"
"Furthermore, powerful individuals in the human world are extremely sensitive to Soul Beast."
"If you two were to swagger out with me like this, the Spirit Hall, the most powerful force in the human world, would probably go mad."
Others may not know how powerful the Spirit Hall is, but Ye Qing knows it perfectly well.
On the surface, the Spirit Hall has more than five titled elders.
The secret Worship Hall also houses several Super Douluo of level 95 or higher.
There was even a Peerless Douluo Qian Daoliu with all-black Soul Ring at level 99, and the Spirit Hall also possessed the inheritance of the Angel God.
Even if the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress were to join forces, they would likely suffer a crushing defeat against the Spirit Hall.
Snow Empress's lips curled up slightly, forming a mysterious arc.
"What's so difficult about that?"
"I have confirmed that your Chaos World can conceal your aura, and concealing the aura of Soul Beast is a piece of cake."
"I and Bing'er only need to reside within your Chaos World on ordinary days."
"Even if we follow you into human territory, no Soul Master will be able to detect our presence."
"If we encounter a fatal predicament that even you cannot resolve, then I and Bing'er will appear from that Chaos World to clear the obstacles for you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
Does he live in his own Martial Soul Space with two powerful figures from the Far North by his side?
If danger arises, simply release the two Far North Emperors to trap and defeat them!
This isn't a bodyguard, it's like someone carrying two nuclear weapons!
Imagine if Tang Hao wanted to scheme against him in the future, he could simply activate the Chaos Pearl and release the Ice and Snow Emperors.
If those two ferocious Ferocious Beast jumped out of his pockets, they could probably beat Tang Hao senseless.
Just imagining that scene made Ye Qing feel refreshed and almost burst out laughing.
etc...
Ye Qing's smile suddenly froze.
He suddenly realized an extremely serious problem.
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress moved into their own Chaos Pearl.
Doesn't that mean that my every move will be under the surveillance of these two big shots?
This is not just protection, it's surveillance.
"Hey kid, what's with that weird expression?"
"I'm warning you!" Seeing Ye Qing's expression shift between light and dark, the Ice Empress threatened fiercely, "I only agreed to let you use that wretched space as a temporary residence because of Xue'er."
"If I ever find out that you dare to slack off and neglect your cultivation of the evolution space, I will beat you black and blue!"
"Furthermore, once we're in the human world, if you dare to harbor any wicked thoughts, I'll snap your neck with one pliers!"
Ice Empress proudly brandished its pincers.
That menacing, snarling appearance was indeed ferocious.
Ye Qing sighed.
Fine, I guess I'll be monitored then!
Being watched and supervised by two rulers of the Far North every day during cultivation—from another perspective, who else on the entire continent receives this kind of treatment?
"Make a deal!"
Ye Qing slammed his hand on the table and stood up, laughing unrestrainedly and brightly.
"Your Majesty the Snow Empress, Your Majesty the Ice Empress, I accept this deal!"
"From this day forward, my Chaos World will be your backyard!"
"As long as I, Ye Qing, have a breath left, I guarantee you'll live comfortably."
