After Huo Yuhao's laborious explanation, the Snow Empress reluctantly accepted that he had first stumbled upon a million-year Ice Silkworm through sheer luck, then, with Tian Meng's help, used his shed husk to trap the Ice Empress and coaxed her into becoming his Second Martial Soul, residing in his Sea of Consciousness. She also demanded to meet the Ice Empress the moment she woke.
As for Chen Ping, after listening to Huo Yuhao recount every detail of his experiences over the years, his occupational habit immediately flared up: he wanted to get Huo Yuhao to drop some gold too.
