"So... your pride won't allow you to deceive us, right?" Snow Empress's emotions were somewhat fluctuating. She knew that, logically, she should be disappointed, because the Ye Qingcang she remembered wasn't a genius, but an ordinary human being. His current maturity was merely the result of two lifetimes of experience. But beyond that logic, Ye Qingcang 'Ye Qingcang astonishing growth rate surprised her just as much as his current honesty. "Even if your pride leads to your ultimate failure, will you still carry that pride with you?"

"I don't agree with your label of 'confidence'."

"Of course."

"It doesn't matter what it's called."

"Whether it's confidence or pride."

"I've laid myself bare before you, and I can even tell you frankly that I'm betting on your conscience!"

"So, will you disappoint me?"

Ye Qingcang raised his arms and opened his arms.

Like embracing the sky and the earth.

Facing the Snow Empress.

Snow Empress couldn't help but fall into deep thought, her tone hesitant, unsure whether she was testing or telling the truth. In any case, she asked, "Do you want to win me over with benevolence and righteousness to serve you?"

"Since we've come to the topic of benevolence and righteousness..."

"Then it doesn't matter whether it's conquered or not."

"I admit, I want to keep you... not just because I want to recapture the wonder and joy of my youth, but also because I want to write a story with you... of course, I don't like tragedies."

Therefore, there was no such thing as conquest.

"It's just a matter of whether you're willing or not."

"I'd be happy if you were willing."

"If you're not willing... I won't force you."

"Let's stick to our previous agreement. As long as you don't leave here, I won't do anything to you. Even if you want to betray me at a crucial moment, so be it... You understand that, right?"

Ye Qingcang's arm slowly fell to his sides.

His posture has returned to normal.

The unease of not having one's secrets exposed.

All that remains is openness and honesty.

After closing her eyes for a moment, Snow Empress opened them again, her sharp gaze revealing her true colors. "If I said I insisted on leaving this place and breaking our previous agreement... how would you handle that?"

"Then I will strictly abide by the agreement."

"I'll kill you."

"Although there is indeed a way to imprison you instead of killing you among the options, since our previous agreement was only to keep this secret... I will not leave myself with an enemy that cannot be reformed, which means I will be planting a time bomb for myself."

"I admit, it's inevitable that I'll feel reluctant to part with it."

"But I won't joke with my life."

Ye Qingcang spoke the unpleasant truth.

Even Ice Empress was getting a little impatient.

What happened?

Why did things have to turn sour when we were having a conversation?

Ye Qingcang was indeed not a genius.

There is no doubt about that.

But Ye Qingcang's strength wasn't something he faked.

Certainly, the Martial Soul provides Ye Qingcang with limitless possibilities. At least in her memory, she has never encountered a Martial Soul that can create everything. This Martial Soul doesn't even have a physical form; it looks like a wisp of air. Even describing it as air isn't accurate, because the essence of this Martial Soul should be nothingness, the nothingness of having nothing at all. But Ye Qingcang's Ye Qingcang to utilize this Martial Soul to its fullest extent, and the pain she has experienced since her second rebirth, all demonstrate that Ye Qingcang is a true powerhouse. Does being a genius really matter?

Not everyone has the courage to put themselves in a large pot, fill it with animal blood and various herbs, and stew themselves in order to temper their body. The pain of that slow death is so intense that even with the memories of an adult, the instinct for survival will overwhelm their rationality, and they will not be able to persevere.

Not everyone has the courage to take precautions, to fight in the City of Slaughter city for years, to remain calm under the endless onslaught of negative desires, and to remember why they are fighting in the first place.

Girls change a lot as they grow up!

Anyway, she thought Ye Qingcang was pretty good!

It suited her taste perfectly.

Pooh.

It suited her taste.

But before Ice Empress could speak up to smooth things over, Snow Empress suddenly added a sentence!

A statement that's a bit hard to understand!

"What if this is me testing you?"

Snow Empress stared intently into Ye Qingcang's dark pupils.

Truth and falsehood intertwined.

A mixture of truth and falsehood.

No one can say for sure whether the Snow Empress is truly testing us at this moment.

But Ye Qingcang didn't care about any of that.

I'm just telling the truth.

"I will let you go."

"Because I believe you will come back."

"Perhaps I will pay the price for my choices."

"But... a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit!"

"Paying this tuition with my life is indeed expensive, but it's not necessarily not worth it!"

So, once it's released, it's released.

"I am a person who leans towards emotions."

"Therefore, based on the principle of helping relatives regardless of right or wrong, the agreement can be abandoned."

Ye Qingcang's words are very well said.

Whether Snow Empress believed it or not is unknown.

But Ice Empress believed it anyway.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Because she punched Ye Qingcang in the lower back, she tried to lower her voice, but she still couldn't hide her anger and started cursing fiercely.

"Are you out of your mind, Ye Qingcang?"

"Is that how you answer?"

"Knowing it was a test, they said they were willing to release him."

"It's either a test or death."

"You... you... if you really don't want to talk to Xue'er, there's no need to make this kind of joke, and it's not funny at all, do you understand?"

"Pattern!"

"Pattern!"

"Pattern!"

"You've talked about the bigger picture so many times with Yuhao and the others!"

"I've told you this several times!"

"How come it disappears when it comes to you?"

"Although you were in heat when you were young... cough cough, that's what we Soul Beast call it, in your human terms it would be called teenage infatuation... anyway, it's the same thing, you made some mistakes with the drawings of me and Xue'er, but that's no excuse for you to give up like this... oh my god, what am I supposed to say?"

Ye Qingcang silently protected his waist.

His current state is indeed that of a soul.

There are no fatal weaknesses.

But protecting the lower back joints is one of the instincts of men.

This has nothing to do with whether he is a spirit or not.

But Ye Qingcang's silence doesn't mean Snow Empress won't speak!

"Alright, Bing'er."

"Stop defending him in this way."

"I'm not angry."

"On the contrary, I'm quite happy."

"Because I admire his answer, just as I admire his honesty!"

"The first question... If his answer is not to kill me, but to let me go... regardless of whether he's being sincere, I'm confident I can make this judgment: he's not worth following... because showing mercy to a clear enemy is cruel to yourself, irresponsible to yourself and everyone who trusts you, because your mercy could lead to the death of those who trust you. If it were me, I would also choose to kill him!"

"The second question: if his answer to me is to kill me, then it means he lacks confidence, and all the benevolence he mentioned before was just empty talk... Moreover, the key point is that he doesn't even dare to gamble on whether what I said is true or false, that is to say, he doesn't dare to gamble on whether I am testing him... Although I openly told him: Yes, I am testing you... whether he believes my courage and boldness is very important... So, the choice seems to be in my hands, but in reality, it is in his hands. Whether he believes me and dares to give me this promise will determine my impression of him!"

"Of course."

"What I mean by that is that I am very satisfied."

"You don't need to worry about it."

"If you don't believe me, look at him."

Did he mean to argue?

Snow Empress gestured to Ice Empress to observe Ye Qingcang's reaction.

Although Ice Empress couldn't see anything either.

Just as she couldn't understand Snow Empress's words.

His eyes were practically swirling with eddies.

I was completely stunned.
