The Unmatched Dominance of Snow Emperor

Beiming Lieyang looked straight at Dugu Bo, his gaze calm and sharp.

Though Douluo was fantasy's gutter.

Still, it was connected to the fantasy genre no matter what.

In this world, right and wrong did not exist; only the weak were prey to the strong.

The people of Huaxia had always held only a single notion.

To contend with the heavens and the earth, man could conquer nature.

If one lacked even the courage to fight and contend, they might as well crawl back to a safe place and cower early on.

The law of the jungle was the fundamental rule of heaven and earth, and he never felt there was anything to hide about it.

Weakness itself was the original sin.

He needed to grow continuously stronger so he could protect the people and things he cared about.

Right now, he could still rely on the power of Mother Snow and Aunt Ice, so why not use it?

After he grew up, it would be his turn to protect Mother Snow and Aunt Ice.

A tiny drop of kindness should be repaid with a gushing spring.

Not to mention the grace of raising him.

"?! "

Dugu Bo's expression had already turned completely gloomy.

He had never seen anyone dare to be this arrogant in front of him, let alone when the other party was merely a youth.

He had immersed himself in poisons for decades, and although he was known as a fragile Title Douluo, his Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor Poison still made his peers wary.

Yet today, he was being told to his face by a child that "the strong possess everything"—it was simply utterly ridiculous!

"Good, good, good. Brat, you're courting death!"

In an instant, he no longer concealed his aura!

Rank 91 Title Douluo!

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black.

Standard spirit rings of the Douluo Continent, perfectly matched, pulsed up and down around his body.

Green light surged fiercely in Dugu Bo's eyes, and his right hand whipped upward, condensing several strands of dark green toxic mist between his five fingers that morphed into the shapes of poisonous snakes.

Hmph!

Ice Emperor let out a cold snort.

Before those wisps of toxic mist could even take shape, they silently congealed in the air, shattered, and turned into ice dust that scattered.

Dugu Bo's entire body stiffened. He jerked his head up to look at the two figures standing beside Beiming Lieyang, and a cold sweat instantly soaked through his spine.

Then, the temperature of the entire world plummeted with a boom.

Snow Emperor lifted her gaze, and swirling snow all over the sky condensed out of thin air, instantly overshadowing the brilliant red and blue light of the twin springs.

Dugu Bo's knees buckled, and he staggered backward, his throat dry. "This aura... Could it be—"

"My little Yang is someone a mere rank ninety-one Title Douluo like you can touch?"

Snow Emperor flicked a finger, and a single snowflake abruptly vanished as an invisible, immense force crushed down.

Dugu Bo didn't even have time to raise a thought of resistance before he was violently slammed into the mountain wall. Gravel exploded, dust billowed, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

He struggled to lift his head from the rubble. "Y-Your Excellency... It was that brat who trespassed into this lord's forbidden grounds first..."

"Forbidden grounds?" Ice Emperor tilted her head to look at him, revealing her sharp canine teeth. "This place has existed even longer than you have. You say it's yours just because you claim it?"

Dugu Bo's complexion turned a mix of pale and green.

Snow Emperor raised a hand and pressed it downward in the void, an ice-blue barrier enveloping the entire valley. Dugu Bo's poison arts were suppressed by the Extreme Ice barrier to the point where he couldn't even unleash thirty percent of them.

He was both alarmed and furious, yet he was even clearer on another fact.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well itself had clashing ice and fire elements; ordinarily, he only dared to venture around the outer perimeter, facing backlash the moment he went deeper.

Now the barrier had also sealed his retreat, completely bypassing him.

"Since my little Yang has taken a fancy to this place,"

Snow Emperor's gaze fell flatly upon him, "then this place is his. Do you have an objection?"

Embedded in the mountain wall, Dugu Bo's dignity as a Title Douluo was shattered all over the ground, yet he didn't even dare to utter a harsh word.

He knew that woman would genuinely crush him to death on a whim,

without a care, just like crushing a venomous insect.

Snow Emperor withdrew her gaze, raising a hand to lightly brush the hair from Beiming Lieyang's forehead as her voice turned gentle. "Go take a look. Whatever you want, just take it directly."

Beiming Lieyang didn't move instead; his eyes were shining with excitement, for this version of Mother Snow was simply too domineering!

It was his first time seeing it.

Both beautiful and badass.

"Your eyes are practically glued to her." Ice Emperor let out a light huff from the side. "What, didn't I make a move?"

"Aunt Ice is badass too!" Beiming Lieyang hastily turned his head to append that.

"That's more like it." Ice Emperor curled the corner of her mouth, emitting a satisfied huff, but she didn't press further for compliments, her gaze already falling upon the pool of water ahead intertwined with red and blue light.

"What are all these spiritual herbs?"

Since this was the path guided by the sun in little Yang's dream, he must be clear on what was here, or he wouldn't have found this place so accurately.

Thus, based on information from the original work, combined with the growth locations and shapes of the immortal herbs, Beiming Lieyang explained their medicinal efficacies and harvesting methods to the two emperors one by one.

As for a few he didn't recognize, there was nothing to be done about those.

However, he could acquire the immortal herb guide later from the Monotony Clan or Yue Guan.

The two women's eyes brightened slightly; they hadn't expected this valley to hide so many immortal herbs with peculiar efficacies.

Beiming Lieyang stepped forward toward the edge of the spring, his gaze locking onto three directions.

"Octagonal Xuanbing Grass, Blazing Apricot Delicate, Wangchuan Qiushuilu. These three immortal herbs happen to be what I want."

Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor looked over, a trace of astonishment welling up in both of their gazes.

For two plants with completely opposing attributes to peacefully coexist within such a close distance was a marvel in its own right.

Beiming Lieyang walked straight toward the Wangchuan Qiushuilu, plucked it, and drank it down.

The juice entered his throat, crisp and cool like a spring, and a warm, gentle force surged toward his brow, nourishing his sea of consciousness.

Closing his eyes for a moment, his gaze grew even brighter when he opened them again.

Turning his sight between the two ice and fire immortal herbs, he took out an iron tool and jade spade, his wrists twitching simultaneously.

The two implements flew out like hidden weapons, slicing with pinpoint precision into the intersecting points of their roots, severing the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate completely from their bases.

Pulling back with a rope formed of spirit power, the two immortal herbs collided in midair, their ice and fire energies neutralizing one another before they fell into his hand, and he shoved them straight into his mouth.

Dugu Bo, who was standing in the distance quietly healing his injuries, constricted his pupils violently.

Having guarded this place for decades, he only knew the toxicity of most spiritual herbs rather than their names, not even daring to touch them casually.

Yet this brat could precisely call out these immortal herbs' names, which had already caused his heart to sink.

And those two extremely cold and hot poisonous weeds—things guaranteed to kill anyone who consumed them—had actually been swallowed in one gulp by him, leaving him completely unharmed.

Dugu Bo hung his mouth open, unable to squeeze out a single word.

Then he watched Beiming Lieyang turn to look at the two ice and snow emperors.

"Mother Snow, Aunt Ice, next I am going to temper my golden body with ice and fire. Don't worry."

With those words, he leaped decisively, jumping straight into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"Don't!!"

Dugu Bo cried out almost instinctively.

The extreme cold and extreme heat forces within that spring water were so intense that even a Title Douluo like him only dared to stay far away, using its residual warmth to suppress his fire poison; approaching it was out of the question.

For this brat to jump in was pure suicide!

What made him break out in an even colder sweat was that if this brat really died here, onto whose head would those two terrifying women pin this debt?

Dugu Bo's lips trembled as he laboriously turned his head to look at Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor.

They stared fixedly at the water's surface without making a move to stop him.

"You... You people!" Dugu Bo grew anxious. "Aren't you going to make him come out?! That spring water isn't something a human can endure! Even a Title Douluo going down there will die just the same!"

His voice even changed pitch, terrified that these two women might use him as a vent for their frustration shortly.

Yet the next moment, bubbles emerged on the water's surface.

Golden light seeped out from beneath the water, carving out a small, warm domain of light within the red and blue spring water.

Beiming Lieyang's figure bobbed up and down beneath the surface.

Dugu Bo watched in a daze.

That brat, who should have been instantly pulverized into dust within the ice and fire forces, was soaking safely and soundly in the spring water.

That layer of golden halo on his body was still growing brighter bit by bit, his posture as relaxed as if he were soaking in a hot spring.

"How is this possible..."

"How could anyone survive inside this place?"

He recalled once more how thoroughly knowledgeable this brat had been about the medicinal herbs here, knowing their roots and bottom lines.

Coupled with the fact that he himself could only rely on the clashing energy of the ice and fire here from a distance to suppress his fire poison.

A bold notion suddenly sprouted in his heart.

Could this brat know how to detoxify these herbs?

Then what about the snake venom on his body?

Can he cure it?!
