Jun Xuehan walked straight into the Space Rift, and when she came out of the Space Rift, she had already arrived at the snow-covered Extreme North Region.
After glancing around, Jun Xuehan walked deeper into the Extreme North Region while contacting Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Ice Empress in her Spiritual Sea.
"Tian Meng, Ice Empress, we're returning to the Far North. You'll need to explain to Snow Empress about Ice Empress's sacrifice later." Jun Xuehan said, her hands behind her back, her gaze fixed ahead, to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Ice Empress within her Spiritual Sea.
"Explanation? You can tell Snow Empress about Bing Bing's matter, isn't that enough? Do we need to explain?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body stood up from the Spiritual Sea and spoke.
"Tian Meng, get the hell out of here!" Ice Empress flicked her tail, sending Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body flying.
"Yu Yuan, you go deep into the Far North. I'll talk to Sister Xue myself then," Ice Empress said after glaring at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
Looking at the situation in the Spiritual Sea, Jun Xuehan couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Alright, I'll tell you when I find the Ice Empress."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm slowly stood up, glanced at Ice Empress, and then asked Jun Xuehan, "Wait a minute, were you laughing at me just now?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Xuehan readily admitted it, saying, "I did laugh just now. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm blinked and slowly said, "Your Brother Sky Dream got beaten up, and not only did you not help, you even mocked me."
"If Brother Sky Dream hadn't sacrificed himself, I would definitely fight you one-on-one according to the rules for Soul Beast!"
Hearing Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's words, Jun Xuehan couldn't help but chuckle, put her hands behind her back, and walked forward slowly.
"Sorry, with your fighting strength, I could probably take on ten of you by myself without much trouble." Jun Xuehan said with a faint smile, her words seemingly casual.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, on the other hand, fell silent.
Ice Empress let out a burst of laughter, a laughter as melodious as silver bells, which was very pleasant to hear.
As they continued forward, the surrounding temperature dropped lower and lower, and the biting wind constantly whipped Jun Xuehan's hair, while snowflakes gradually drifted down from the sky.
Continuing onward, Jun Xuehan passed directly through the inner perimeter of the Extreme North Region and arrived at the Core Area of Extreme North Region.
What puzzled Jun Xuehan was that the Snow Empress, the ruler of the Far North, was not here.
Jun Xuehan casually found a place to sit down, waiting for the Snow Empress to return while communicating with the Ice Empress and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in the Spiritual Sea.
"Ice Empress, Snow Empress, it seems she's not in the Core Area of Extreme North Region." Jun Xuehan scanned her surroundings and asked the Ice Empress.
"Not in the Core Area? Sister Xue, she must have gone out on some business." Ice Empress thought for a moment and replied.
"I'll wait here. With Snow Empress's strength, she should be able to sense my presence in the Core Area," Jun Xuehan said softly after thinking for a moment.
"Well, let's wait here. If Sister Xue doesn't have anything to do, she basically won't leave the Core Area." Ice Empress blinked, unable to think of where Snow Empress would go for a moment.
Jun Xuehan nodded slightly, then sat cross-legged on the spot and entered a Meditative Cultivation state.
As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.
Jun Xuehan suddenly felt the temperature around her gradually decreasing, and a clear, cold voice rang in her ear.
"You said you'd come back and explain Bing'er's situation to me after you finished dealing with things, but you've been gone for three years. I thought you weren't coming back." Snow Empress's figure slowly walked over from a distance.
Upon hearing Snow Empress's voice, Jun Xuehan immediately opened her eyes, exited her Meditative Cultivation, and looked in the direction from which the voice came.
"Something came up, so I'm only coming now, but it doesn't seem too late." Jun Xuehan slowly stood up, looking at Wu Fan who was walking towards her.
"Three years is not too late, it's just a blink of an eye. I want to know now why Bing'er sacrificed herself for you back then." The Snow Empress nodded slightly, stopped in front of Jun Xuehan, and stared at Jun Xuehan with her cold gaze.
"Even if I told you, you might not believe me. I'd rather the two people involved explain this to you, Snow Empress." Jun Xuehan smiled, then closed her eyes slightly, connecting with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and the Ice Empress in her Spiritual Sea.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm slowly straightened up, looked at Ice Empress, and said, "Bing Bing, if Snow Empress attacks me later, you must protect me."
The sweet, cloying voice of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm reached Ice Empress's ears, causing Ice Empress to narrow his eyes. His emerald green eyes fixed on Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, a dangerous glint flashing within them.
Seeing the Ice Empress's gaze, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm couldn't help but smile awkwardly. Then, an immense amount of Mental Power erupted from within its body. Brilliant golden light completely enveloped Jun Xuehan's body, and from within the light emerged the Ice Empress and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, formed from the Spiritual Origin.
"Bing Bing, hurry up. My Spiritual Origin is my core power. I've already used it once before. Now, with your presence, it might not take too long." Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said, secretly glancing at Snow Empress before quickly hiding behind Ice Empress.
Jun Xuehan, meanwhile, walked silently behind Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, casually found a place to sit down, took out a handful of melon seeds from her Soul Tool, and watched quietly.
Looking at Jun Xuehan's expression, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm couldn't help but twitch. Jun Xuehan's attitude made it clear that she wouldn't share the blame with him.
"Sister Xue!" Ice Empress glanced at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm hiding behind her and rolled her eyes, but when she saw Snow Empress, her voice was filled with joy.
"Bing'er, what was the story behind the sacrifice back then?" The Snow Empress nodded slightly and sat down on the spot.
Ice Empress then walked to Snow Empress's side and explained to her the matter of her sacrifice for Jun Xuehan.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm glanced at Jun Xuehan and quietly transmitted her voice, asking, "You're not planning to make me take the blame all by myself, are you? You're quite adept at using the Ice Empress's Martial Soul, Soul Ring, and Soul Bone."
Jun Xuehan smiled indifferently and said, "Isn't Ice Empress explaining to Snow Empress? Tian Meng, what do you have to worry about? Besides, do I look like someone who would let you take the blame alone?"
As she spoke, Jun Xuehan glanced at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, her voice full of indifference. With the Ice Empress explaining to the Snow Empress, what happened back then was nothing at all; after all, the Ice Empress had willingly sacrificed herself.
