Huo Yuhao actually believed Bai Luo should not accompany him on such a risky venture.

After all, Bai Luo had no obligation to do so.

But hearing his mother say that, Huo Yuhao still could not help feeling a little stifled.

"It's fine, Aunt Yun. It's only the Far North. It's not really dangerous."

Bai Luo smiled faintly.

The ease in his tone made it clear that he did not take this human forbidden zone seriously at all.

Moreover, Bai Luo had his own purpose.

He was still counting on harvesting feedback from Huo Yuhao, the original protagonist.

Obtaining a second ice-attribute martial soul was one of the protagonist's major events in the original story.

If Bai Luo participated in it and fulfilled the wish, the feedback he received would certainly be substantial.

"This..."

Huo Yun'er hesitated.

Seeing Bai Luo's confidence, she finally nodded in agreement.

She said with heartfelt gratitude:

"Boss, thank you!"

From pulling the mother and son out of the mire of the White Tiger Duke's Estate back then,

to now accompanying Huo Yuhao into a human forbidden zone like the Far North,

Huo Yun'er's gratitude toward Bai Luo only grew deeper.

For a moment, she no longer knew how she could possibly repay his kindness.

She would never be able to repay the boss's kindness!

As she spoke, Huo Yun'er prepared to kneel in thanks.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao immediately followed his mother's lead.

Bai Luo keenly noticed their movements and lightly raised a hand through the air.

Gentle Soul Power supported their bodies, making it impossible for them to continue.

He sounded somewhat helpless.

"Aunt Yun, I've said this many times. There's no need for all this. It's pretty awkward."

Bai Luo had always felt uncomfortable with such behavior.

He did not think of himself as some compassionate saint.

He was merely doing things for his own purposes.

At most, he had simply helped a few people along the way.

To prevent Huo Yun'er and her son from making an even more awkward gesture,

Bai Luo said he was going to rest, then returned to his room.

Huo Yun'er looked solemnly at Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, remember this. Although the boss does not care, we cannot forget his kindness."

"Mm, I know!"

Huo Yuhao nodded heavily!

He had long sworn to himself that he would follow Bai Luo's lead for the rest of his life.

If Brother Bai told him to go east, he would never go west!

Divine Realm.

The God of Life, who had been keeping an eye on her younger brother, secretly used her divine authority to observe the situation in the lower realm.

She happened to take in the entire conversation between Huo Yuhao and his mother.

A trace of amusement flashed through her emerald eyes, and her red lips curled slightly upward.

"What is it, Xiao Lu?"

The God of Destruction noticed the change in the God of Life's mood and asked in confusion.

The Goddess of Life gave a soft laugh.

"Nothing. It's just that the Child of Fortune Tang San planned so carefully seems to have become Xiao Luo's little fanboy."

"I wonder how entertaining Tang San's expression would be if he saw this."

Tang San's use of his divine authority to peer into the lower realm was no secret.

The Goddess of Life had learned it from him.

After all, this did not count as interfering with the lower realm and, strictly speaking, could not be considered a violation of the Divine Realm's rules.

However, Tang San's omniscience did not extend to Bai Luo.

Protected by the Goddess of Life's power, the area around Bai Luo was beyond Tang San's ability to spy upon from the Divine Realm.

Unless Tang San was prepared to completely fall out with the Goddess of Life and forcibly break the isolation measures she had placed around Bai Luo.

Thus, God King Tang still knew nothing about many matters.

He even smugly believed his plan was proceeding "smoothly" because Wang Dong frequently went to Bai Luo's clinic.

Little did he know that the situation was nothing like what he imagined.

His daughter went to Bai Luo's clinic every day not because the two were close and going on dates, but to get beaten up one-sidedly.

There was no way God King Tang could have imagined that.

After all, who would think their own daughter had a hobby of going to get bullied by someone else?

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, a faint smile appeared on the usually stern God of Destruction's face.

"Excellent."

Since he had never gotten along with Tang San, hearing such news naturally pleased him.

However, the God of Destruction had no intention of going to mock him to his face just yet.

Let Tang San remain immersed in his fantasies!

The higher one stood, the harder one fell!

He eagerly awaited the day Tang San's beautiful dream shattered!

Elsewhere.

Tang San was still sipping spiritual tea offered by his subordinate gods in the Sea God's Temple, looking calm and assured, as though everything was under his control.

Recalling everything that had happened in the lower realm, Tang San felt as though he were Chancellor Zhuge reborn, planning from behind the scenes.

Heh heh.

Once he used his daughter to tie the Goddess of Life's younger brother to the Tang Clan's ship,

then used some methods to train the Child of Fortune born on the Douluo Continent into a dog of the Tang Clan,

what would the God of Destruction have left to fight him with?

That old thing should have withdrawn from the stage of Divine Realm history long ago!

Tang San rose and walked to the window of the Sea God's Temple. Looking at the Divine Realm shrouded in clouds and mist, he felt immensely pleased with himself, as though the Divine Realm were already in his grasp.

This Divine Realm—

one day, it would bear the Tang name completely!

After bidding Jiang Nannan farewell, Bai Luo and Huo Yuhao headed straight for the Far North.

According to their original plan, they should have arrived at the Far North yesterday.

But Bai Luo spent an entire day reassuring Jiang Nannan, who worried about his safety, delaying their departure by a day.

The Far North.

Because of its frigid temperatures and exceptionally harsh environment, it was known as a forbidden zone for human activity.

The moment they stepped onto the ice plains,

all they saw was endless white.

Snow stretched as far as the eye could see.

Even the sky was white.

The howling wind cut bitterly against them.

It made people instinctively draw their clothes tighter.

A little beyond the edge of the Far North, there was no longer any trace of humanity.

Only the occasional faint movement from unique soul beasts living in the Far North could be heard.

The silence was terrifying.

Within the wind and snow,

two figures appeared especially conspicuous.

Huo Yuhao was bundled up tightly.

Although the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could help him resist the severe cold, it consumed power.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had limited power sealed within Huo Yuhao's body, so he avoided wasting it on such useless matters whenever possible.

Most of the time, Huo Yuhao still had to endure the cold himself.

Beside Huo Yuhao was Bai Luo, who had come along with him.

Compared to Huo Yuhao, who was wrapped up tightly, Bai Luo was dressed far more lightly.

He did not need to deliberately use Soul Power to ward off the cold.

Bai Luo's formidable physical constitution alone made him immune to this level of chill.

"Brother Sky Dream, what should we do next?"

Huo Yuhao asked.

"The Far North is so huge. We can't possibly search bit by bit, can we?"

Huo Yuhao felt somewhat uneasy.

If they really searched like that, he feared he would freeze to death before they even found the Ice Empress.
