No matter how Jiang Yue called out to the Ice Empress, she gave him no response.
Normally, as Jiang Yue's Protectors, the Ice Empress would not deliberately ignore his calls. She could at least be trusted to faithfully fulfill her duties as his Protectors. From the looks of it, perhaps she really was no longer by his side.
In the entire Sun Moon Empire, only three things could currently make the Ice Empress leave Jiang Yue's side.
The first was the Snow Empress. However, she was currently an embryo and should still be stored deep within Mingde Hall. Jiang Yue had already told the Ice Empress that all of Mingdu was incredibly dangerous, and that she would certainly die if she acted recklessly. Surely she would not get so worked up that she gambled with her own life.
The second was a powerful individual. But as long as the Ice Empress did not reveal herself, the only people in the entire Sun Moon Empire who should be able to detect her presence were those two hidden Limit Douluos. They should not appear in Mingdu at this point in time.
