Tired, Destroy It! The Ice and Snow Empresses' Choice

Huo Yuhao was dumbfounded.

Xu Tianzhen and Ye Guyi's appearance had left him deeply puzzled, but he could still understand it. In his view, it was most likely a change brought about by his identity as a Child of Destiny.

Wang Dong'er had not gone to Shrek. Instead, she had come to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy just like him, and had even returned to her female appearance. Huo Yuhao could understand that as well. At most, Tang San still wanted to continue his Millennium Plan and turn him, this Child of Destiny, into a lackey under his command.

Even Di Qiu'er, the Auspicious Beast who had changed her name, was something he could barely explain away despite appearing before him many years early. After all, Tang San had likely tampered with the Auspicious Beast's soul. When he discovered that Huo Yuhao had not joined the Tang Sect according to his plan before using a Tang Sect interview slot to enter Shrek, he had secretly influenced Wang Dong'er. While sending Wang Dong'er to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, he had even influenced the Auspicious Beast into appearing ahead of time.

But the appearance of Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, truly made Huo Yuhao begin to question his life.

Something was wrong. This was seriously wrong! Am I hallucinating? Why would the Silver Dragon King appear at this time? Shouldn't she be sleeping in the Lake of Life, recovering from her injuries? Wasn't she supposed to leave the Star Dou Great Forest only in the Dou Three Era, ten thousand years from now? Is this world the problem, or am I?

Since she was Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, then he could also confirm that Di Qiu'er was the Auspicious Beast. Even if Tang San was a God King, even if he had truly begun plotting against Gu Yuena, the Soul Beast Co-Lord, there was no way he could make her emerge early and even have her appear before him together with Di Qiu'er, right?

Could someone please explain what exactly was going on?

No matter what, this human is rather sensible.

Gu Yuena maintained her calm and aloof appearance, but she was quite pleased that Huo Yuhao had mentioned her name several times in the diary.

The only thing that displeased her was Huo Yuhao's guess that her early emergence had been influenced by Tang San.

He is merely the Sea God, yet he thinks he can influence my actions? That false God King will have to pay a price if he wishes to plot against me! And that rabbit who betrayed the Soul Beasts cannot be spared either!

Gu Yuena's expression management was flawless. Even though Huo Yuhao carefully observed her with the powerful vision granted by his Spirit Eye, he could not detect the slightest anomaly.

Only after Gu Yuena quietly returned to her seat and sat there in solitary beauty did Huo Yuhao weakly slump onto his desk, turning a deaf ear to the other students of New Student Class One introducing themselves.

He was tired. Destroy it all.

In the Far North, the Ice Empress finally could no longer hold herself back after seeing the contents of the diary.

"Snow Empress! Did you see that? Even the Silver Dragon King, that so-called Soul Beast Co-Lord, has gone to the Sun Moon Empire to find Huo Yuhao! She even took human form. Isn't that shameless?!"

"No, I have to find Huo Yuhao too. I'm taking him back to the Far North!"

The Ice Empress's sharp cry echoed continuously through the icy, snow-covered land, shaking the snow on the surrounding ground into the air once more.

Seeing that the Ice Empress was truly about to charge out of the Far North, the Snow Empress hurriedly grabbed her tail. Looking at the Ice Empress's baffled expression, the Snow Empress shook her head and said,

"Why are you always so impulsive? Have you decided to take human form? Or are you planning to go to the Sun Moon Empire just like this, in the form of an Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion?"

"Once we leave the Far North, neither of us will be able to exert our full strength. Forcing our way into the Sun Moon Empire is absolutely not feasible. It could even lead to our deaths."

The Snow Empress's words did not dispel the anger in the Ice Empress's heart. The Ice Empress unwillingly flicked her jade-green tail hook and said furiously,

"Then are we just supposed to watch helplessly? Watch the Silver Dragon King and the others monopolize the Diary Copy's rewards? Snow Empress, you saw what the third reward contained. It can help us survive our tribulations, increase our cultivation years, and even give us a chance at Ascension to godhood. Are you really going to give all that up?"

Of course the Snow Empress did not wish to give up. It was no exaggeration to say that her chances of safely surviving the seven-hundred-thousand-year tribulation she was about to face were less than one percent!

If the diary that had suddenly appeared in her mind had not disrupted her plans, the Snow Empress would have already prepared to rebuild her cultivation as a human, staking her life on whether she could attain godhood. If she could become a god herself, she could bring the Ice Empress to the God Realm with her, allowing this sister who had accompanied her for hundreds of thousands of years to continue living.

The Snow Empress had never told the Ice Empress about this idea, precisely because she did not want her to worry. But now, the appearance of the Diary Copy had shown the Snow Empress another possibility.

The Snow Empress remained silent for a long time. Only after quite a while did she finally speak slowly.

"Ice Empress, I have an idea. I can rebuild my cultivation as a human and go to the Sun Moon Empire to find Huo Yuhao. I will find a way to make Huo Yuhao mention your name in the diary, so you can receive rewards even while remaining in the Far North. At the very least, you will not have to bear the risk of rebuilding your cultivation as a human, only to fail to attain godhood and be left with a lifespan of merely a few hundred years."

The Ice Empress's jade-green eyes filled with emotion upon hearing this. Yet the next moment, as though she had suddenly thought of something, she suspiciously studied the Snow Empress and asked in a low voice,

"Snow Empress, aren't you planning to leave me behind and go to the Sun Moon Empire to find Huo Yuhao by yourself?"

The Snow Empress froze. She opened her mouth and stared at the Ice Empress, her beautiful, aloof face filled with shock and disbelief.

"Y-you... Why would you think that? Ice Empress, is that what I am in your eyes?"

The Snow Empress was deeply hurt. She had always treated the Ice Empress as a younger sister. Whether she had previously wanted to rebuild her cultivation as a human and attempt to attain godhood, or now intended to go to the Sun Moon Empire to find Huo Yuhao, it was all because she did not want the Ice Empress to take any risks. Yet the Ice Empress's words had truly pierced her heart.

Seeing the sorrow and confusion on the Snow Empress's face, the Ice Empress immediately panicked. She hurriedly waved her two large pincers and stammered out an explanation.

"No, no, that isn't what I meant. I'm just afraid you'll leave me behind, leaving me alone in the Far North. I don't want to be separated from you!"

At this moment, the Ice Empress had none of the imposing presence of the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan's king. She was like a pet on the verge of being abandoned, gazing pitifully at the Snow Empress.

The Snow Empress could only sigh helplessly. Her fair, delicate palm gently stroked the Ice Empress's head as she softly said,

"We Soul Beasts have never been favored by the God Realm. Even if we rebuild our cultivation as humans, the chance of ultimately attaining godhood is minuscule. Now that we have such an opportunity, if we miss it, there may truly never be a second chance. What should the two of us do?"

Shrek Academy, New Student Class Nine.

While half-listening to her homeroom teacher Mu Jin's lesson, Ning Tian also checked the contents of the Diary Copy in her mind. After reading it, she remained silent for a long time before finally whispering to Wu Feng beside her,

"Other than the students who were expelled, two freshmen named Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao withdrew from New Student Class One too, correct?"

Wu Feng thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, Young Sect Master. But why are you so concerned about that guy named Wang Dong? Don't tell me you've taken a liking to him?"

At the thought of that possibility, jealousy immediately flooded Wu Feng's heart. Her expression twisted slightly, and the fist beneath her desk clenched tight. She had already begun considering whether she should find that fellow named Wang Dong and give him a vicious beating, ensuring that he would never appear before Ning Tian again.

Ning Tian did not answer. She merely furrowed her brows slightly and sighed inwardly.

How decisive! She decisively withdrew from Shrek and went to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy to find Huo Yuhao. It seems I am not the only one tempted by the Diary Copy's rewards!

Hehe, did you think Ning Tian and Wu Feng both had Diary Copies? Wrong!
