Di Tian Comes Knocking, Three-Eyed Golden Lion

Aside from these, he had another regret, which was that he had failed to resurrect Electx.

It was not that he did not want to resurrect him, but rather that he lacked the strength to do so at that time.

It was right at this moment that Huo Yuhao realized a problem: if he had been reborn as the Auspicious Beast, would the version of himself in this world still exist?

This was the most crucial point.

He wanted to ask the system, but no matter how Huo Yuhao questioned it, the system gave no response, as if it lacked any specific consciousness.

The feeling the system gave him was that of an emotionless task machine.

Yet the mere thought of himself currently living as Huo Yuhao in the White Tiger Duke Mansion, combined with the memory of those tragic childhood years, left Huo Yuhao with only one emotion: anger.

Aside from anger, there were no other feelings; right now, he wanted nothing more than to smash the White Tiger Duke Mansion to pieces.

However, his scarce bit of rationality stopped him. Although he had a certain say in the Far North due to his identity as the Ice-and-Snow Auspicious Beast, what excuse could he find to attack the White Tiger Duke Mansion?

There was no way he could say he had a grudge against the White Tiger Duke Mansion; that was unthinkable no matter how one looked at it.

Moreover, Ice Empress and Snow Empress would certainly not agree to him leading an army to attack the White Tiger Duke Mansion.

Once they attacked the White Tiger Duke Mansion without a legitimate reason, it would only bring more and more trouble to their Far North.

The more he thought about it, the more a headache Huo Yuhao got.

Little Yuhao~ A pair of flawless, white hands covered Huo Yuhao's eyes, a cool voice carrying a hint of sweetness.

Feeling the chill behind him, Huo Yuhao did not even need to think to know who it was, and said, "Big Sister Ice, what brings you to see me?"

Ice Empress pretended to be angry and said, "What, we are old acquaintances, do I have to need a reason just to come see you?"

"But every time you come looking for me, it's because you have something to do. I always feel like you treat me like a tool beast."

As Huo Yuhao's voice trailed off, a hint of awkwardness permeated the air.

Slightly awkward, Ice Empress came to Huo Yuhao's side and changed the subject, asking, "What are you thinking about, sitting here all alone without moving, and you aren't even meditating."

Huo Yuhao replied, "I was just thinking about how to become stronger."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao gave such a boring answer, Ice Empress adjusted her attitude and said, "How boring. Let's talk about business first. You should know about Di Tian and the Emperor Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest."

Even though Huo Yuhao very much wanted to say he knew, after thinking about it, he said he did not.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao did not know Di Tian, Ice Empress was very surprised and said, "Didn't Xue'er tell you?"

Huo Yuhao nodded affirmatively and said, "She didn't. But I do know about the Emperor Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest; auspicious beasts can sense each other."

Ice Empress said, "To put it simply, Di Tian holds the title of Beast God among soul beasts, and can be said to be the strongest existence among soul beasts."

"Is that it?"

"That's it. How much longer do you want?"

Huo Yuhao was utterly speechless.

Huo Yuhao asked, "Then Big Sister Ice, you coming to find me this time must have something to do with Di Tian and the Emperor Beast, right?"

Ice Empress affirmed, "That's right. Just like you said, you auspicious beasts can sense one another. Since you know of the Emperor Beast's existence, that also means the Emperor Beast knows of your existence."

Since the Emperor Beast knows of your existence, she would naturally report this matter to Di Tian. Look, just a few days ago, Xue'er was summoned to the Star Dou Great Forest precisely because of this matter.

Huo Yuhao asked, "What matter?"

Ice Empress continued, "It's that Di Tian wants to arrange an engagement between you and the Emperor Beast, making our Far North and the Star Dou Great Forest in-laws."

"Ah?" Hearing Ice Empress's words, Huo Yuhao was extremely shocked.

What? Did this mean he suddenly had an extra fiancée?

And it was Wang Qiuer?

No, wait. Previously, it was because of his own influence that Qiu'er came to be called Wang Qiuer, and also because of him that she chose to transform into a form similar to Wang Donger.

He wondered if Qiu'er would change because of him.

Wait a minute. If he remembered correctly, the current Emperor Beast was still in its soul beast form. It might connect with his memories and thus end up in the same situation as his previous life.

But that would also mean Qiu'er would sacrifice herself once again. No, that won't do; he had to change the fate of Qiu'er being sacrificed.

"Bing'er, bring Yuhao out."

Right at that moment, Snow Empress's voice rang out around them. Hearing this voice, Huo Yuhao and Ice Empress exchanged glances.

Both of them tacitly left the place.

Outside, Snow Empress had already brought two individuals here.

One of them was a middle-aged man who looked over one hundred and eighty centimeters tall and wore black clothing. Beside him was a soul beast that looked like a lion.

This soul beast was over three meters long, stood eight feet at the shoulder, and its entire body was covered in a layer of brilliant golden fur.

The golden fur looked almost like translucent crystal, brimming with a wondrous texture.

Its overall form was very much like a lion, but its four claws were like those of a dragon, and beneath each dragon claw trod a cluster of golden flames. Its muzzle was also slightly longer than that of feline soul beasts, and beneath the fur, there seemed to be dense golden scales.

Aside from its regular pair of eyes, it also possessed a third eye that resembled a vertical pupil.

Its two normal eyes flashed with a golden light, while the vertical pupil emitted a red light—an eerie, somewhat bewitching red.

These two were the guests who had come from afar, hailing from the Far North: Di Tian and the Emperor Beast—the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lowered her head, sniffed with her nose, and said, "I can clearly sense the aura of a kindred spirit in here."

Looking at the world of ice and snow, Di Tian could not help but sigh. "I truly never expected that a cold place like your Far North would also harbor an auspicious beast."

Snow Empress looked at Di Tian with disdain and said, "Indeed, I never expected that just a few years after our Far North gained an auspicious beast, you would come eyeing her with malicious intent. Is this also the will of that lord?"

Di Tian replied, "You are right. It all depends on whether you agree or not."

Using the Three-Eyed Golden Lion as leverage to bind Huo Yuhao, was this the Silver Dragon King's idea?

"Hmph, do you think we dare disagree?" In Snow Empress's view, if things did not work out this time, Di Tian would simply resort to openly snatching Huo Yuhao away.

Moreover, this so-called engagement was merely a graceful exit strategy provided for them.

A short while later, Ice Empress brought Huo Yuhao out from the ice house.

"How is it that the famed Di Tian has the time to visit our unspeakable Far North?" The moment she laid eyes on Di Tian, Ice Empress began her sarcasm.

Yet Di Tian ignored this behavior from Ice Empress entirely.

Instead, he looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "You are the auspicious beast here, correct? Now, I am giving you two choices: either become betrothed to our Three-Eyed Golden Lion and be bound together."

"I advise you not to choose the second option."
