Xiao Bai's Fury, Titan Blood Demon King Battles Red King! (Seeking Follow-up Reads! Thank You!)
Xue Chen listened to Red King's unquestionable words, alarm bells ringing in his mind.
"The Lord...? The Beast God Di Tian?"
Fragments of memory regarding the Star Dou Forest flashed rapidly through his mind.
This guy shouldn't be slumbering beneath the Lake of Life in this timeline, should he?
Why would he suddenly wake up and send Red King all the way to the Far North to capture me?
When did I ever get involved with the Star Dou Forest?
He was completely at a loss.
As a human child raised in the Far North, how could he have attracted the attention of the Beast God Di Tian, who resided ten thousand miles away?
And to take him away? This was simply inexplicable!
Xiao Bai's massive body stood firmly between Xue Chen and Sky Dream Ice Worm.
Without looking back, he let out a low, urgent growl:
"Tian Meng! Don't just stand there! Take little Chen and go, back to the Ice Crystal Palace! This guy is incredibly powerful; the fight ahead won't be quiet, and I'm afraid it will affect you both! Go!"
Sky Dream Ice Worm had long been terrified out of his wits by Red King's scorching, violent aura. Hearing this, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty. His chubby body trembled as he hurriedly wrapped his mental energy around Xue Chen.
"Kid, hold on tight! Brother is taking you away!"
Xue Chen, however, wore a worried expression and gripped Xiao Bai's fur tightly.
"Xiao Bai! Red King is one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts; his cultivation is nearly a hundred thousand years higher than yours! You..."
Xiao Bai shook his head violently, cutting Xue Chen off. A smile appeared on his bear face—simple, honest, yet reliably firm.
"Don't worry! Little Chen, don't forget where we are? This is the Far North! This is my home turf! His cultivation may be higher than mine, but in this frozen land, it won't be so easy for him to do as he pleases with me! Go, don't distract me!"
Feeling the unquestionable determination and powerful confidence in Xiao Bai's words, Xue Chen knew this was no time for hesitation.
If he stayed here, he would truly only be a burden to Xiao Bai.
The top priority was to return to the Ice Crystal Palace as quickly as possible and find Mother Snow Emperor and Aunt Ice Emperor!
"Alright! Be careful, Xiao Bai!"
Xue Chen said no more, patted Xiao Bai's leg hard, and then shouted to Sky Dream Ice Worm:
"Brother Sky Dream, let's go!"
Seeing that Xue Chen was about to be taken away, Red King's three heads let out impatient, low roars simultaneously. Dark red flames surged around his body, evaporating the surrounding ice and snow even faster.
"Ice Bear King! This Seat will say it again: I am acting under Di Tian's orders to take this child! I do not wish to go to war with the Far North, so please make it convenient for us! Do not bring ruin upon yourself!"
He attempted to use Di Tian's name to exert pressure.
However, upon hearing this, Xiao Bai did not retreat; instead, he let out an even more savage roar.
"Roar—! Di Tian is awake? I respect him as the Beast God, ruler of all beasts! But you want to take my little brother from my Far North for no reason? Not even if he came himself!"
"Extreme Ice Domain—Activate!"
Following Xiao Bai's roar, a chill far more cruel and domineering than the natural cold erupted from his massive body, instantly spreading outward!
Crack! Crack!
The ice surface that had been melted by Red King's flames began to refreeze at a speed visible to the naked eye under the power of the domain, covering itself in a layer of indestructible, deep-blue mysterious ice!
The moisture in the air was instantly drained and frozen. Even the dark red flames dancing around Red King seemed suppressed by this invisible chill, their light dimming significantly.
Xiao Bai had utilized the home-field advantage of the Far North to the fullest!
"Stubborn fool! If you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, then don't blame this Seat for being impolite!"
Seeing that negotiations were futile, Red King stopped wasting words.
His middle head opened its massive maw, and a pillar of dark red fire, condensed with terrifying heat, erupted like hellish magma, shooting straight at Xiao Bai!
"Well come!!"
Xiao Bai did not show weakness. His massive bear mouth opened as well, and highly condensed ice-blue energy gathered within, transforming into a thick pillar of ice light radiating the aura of absolute zero, meeting Red King's fire breath head-on!
BOOM—!!!
Extreme cold and extreme heat—two diametrically opposed energies, both reaching the pinnacle of their attributes—collided violently in mid-air!
A deafening explosion resounded through the heavens, and a red and blue energy shockwave spread out in a frantic ring, directly blasting away and annihilating the layers of ice and snow for thousands of meters around.
The frozen, unyielding permafrost that had remained unmelted for ten thousand years was laid bare beneath.
At the center of the explosion, space itself warped slightly, and a thick white mist permeated the air—it was steam generated by the extreme collision of ice and fire.
The first clash was, surprisingly, a stalemate.
A flicker of surprise flashed through the Red King's three pairs of pupils; it had truly underestimated the strength bonus Xiao Bai received while in his home territory.
Xiao Bai let out a roar, and using the recoil of the explosion, his massive body reared up. Enveloped in the swirling snow and the power of his domain, he charged toward the Red King like a war god of the ice plains.
"Brother Sky Dream! Hurry!"
Xue Chen glanced back at the earth-shattering collision, his heart filled with anxiety as he urged the Sky Dream Ice Worm on.
The Sky Dream Ice Worm also knew the situation was critical and dared not dawdle. He pushed his mental power to the limit, wrapping it around Xue Chen and transforming into a nearly transparent streak of light, fleeing desperately in the direction of the Ice Crystal Palace.
Seeing the target about to escape, the Red King was burning with impatience. He wanted to pursue, but was held fast by Xiao Bai's incredibly violent offensive.
Every strike from Xiao Bai contained the force to shatter mountains and split the earth, combined with the erosive power of extreme cold and the suppression of the Extreme Ice Domain, making it difficult for the Red King to break free for the moment.
"Damn you, stupid bear!"
The Red King roared repeatedly, his three heads snapping and biting frantically, spewing flames as he tangled with Xiao Bai.
For a time, in the core region of the Far North Ice Plains, ice and fire intertwined madly. The fierce battle between the two beast kings caused this eternal world of ice and snow to tremble.
Meanwhile, carried by the Sky Dream Ice Worm, Xue Chen was speeding toward the Ice Crystal Palace.
He knew he had to bring the message to the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor as quickly as possible.
The appearance of the Red King, Di Tian's inexplicable attention—behind all of this, there must be a massive secret hidden, and this secret was likely closely related to his mysterious origins and the eighteen seals within his body.
Although the Sky Dream Ice Worm's combat power was worrisome, his ability to flee was truly peerless.
His vast mental power was not only used for perception and control; when escaping, he could distort light and interfere with sensory perception, making him extremely fast and difficult to track.
However, since he was bringing Xue Chen home, he didn't employ those concealment techniques, instead pushing his speed to the limit.
The man and the worm transformed into a streak of light, and before long, the magnificent Ice Crystal Palace, built from ten-thousand-year profound ice, appeared in their field of vision.
Although it had been damaged by the lightning tribulation previously, it had since been repaired by the Snow Emperor.
Approaching the palace gates, the Sky Dream Ice Worm's speed slowed down involuntarily, and he finally came to a stop on the mirror-smooth ice surface in front of the entrance.
He looked up at this palace, both familiar and strange, his large worm eyes filled with complex emotions.
Fond memories of being chased with nowhere to run and no door to enter flooded his mind like a tide.
His plump, white body subconsciously shrank back, as if a dainty figure with green hair and a green dress might charge out from those palace gates at any moment, raising her hand to strike with an Ice Emperor's Claw.
