["Stupid rabbit, I really couldn't be bothered wasting words on you, but if it'll make Tang San uncomfortable, I don't mind saying a little more."
"Tang San split your precious daughter into three. Two died by my hand, and he kept a backup of the third."
"But if I had to guess, the one he kept couldn't hold on and died the moment his level was reset to zero."
Ye Xiao spoke mockingly.
Did she really think everyone was like him, with sword Qi in their bodies that endlessly renewed itself?
If not for that, the Ice and Snow Emperors in his Martial Soul would likewise have died when his Soul Power dissipated.
"What did you say?"
Xiao Wu backed away quickly, staring at Ye Xiao in disbelief.
She didn't want to believe him, but right now, Ye Xiao had no reason to lie to her!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Hurts that much, does it?~"
"Then how about going down to keep her company?"
Ye Xiao watched coldly. As the battle drew to a close, his temperament seemed to have improved again!
He could feel his whole body relaxing!
"No, Xiao Wu!"
Tang San was beside himself, and with Xiao Wu having already retreated, he took a palm strike from the Snow Empress right in the chest!
He was sent flying backward and crashed to the ground.
"How boring, how boring~"
Looking at Tang San on the ground and Xiao Wu's ashen face, Ye Xiao felt somewhat bored.
He swung his sword, sending two sword lights slashing at them without holding back.
The divine power avatars weren't their true bodies, but given the Shrek Six Monsters' current state of spiritual power, they had to pour all of it into these bodies to control them.
In other words, their spirits had been utterly destroyed, and their true bodies could only become empty shells.
Boom!
With one final roar, the battle between Ye Xiao and Tang San finally came to an end.
Ye Xiao took two steps forward and sat down on the steps. Looking at the Ice and Snow Emperors before him, the presence he exuded vanished all at once!
At that moment, after dealing with Tang San, he seemed to have become an ordinary person.
(The playback has ended.)]
"I can't learn it, I just can't!"
Ye Xiao lay with his head on Ye Guyi's lap, a resentful look on his little face.
His self on the sky screen must have learned far more than he had, so he couldn't copy a technique with a single glance like that version of him.
Still, his gains this time were considerable.
With the Geng Metal Sword Qi and the Soul Power Meditation Method, he should have no trouble coming up with version 0.1 of the Indestructible Sword Body himself.
When the time came, he could try converting the Soul Power in his body into sword Qi, making sword Qi his foundation!
Then, just as he had worked out, whatever he wanted to do would yield twice the result for half the effort.
"So... let's sort this out a little..."
Ye Guyi gently stroked Ye Xiao's cheek with her delicate hand, a resentful look coming into her eyes as well.
"On the sky screen, you killed the Sun Moon Emperor, killed Shrek's students, and even killed the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils..."
Ye Guyi gazed at him pensively. It wasn't that she thought this killing fiend had been wrong to kill them...
But the question was, what were they supposed to do now?!
In a way, hadn't Ye Xiao offended the entire continent already?!
"We have friends."
Ye Xiao shook his head, understanding what Ye Guyi meant.
"Who?"
"Ji Juechen or Jing Ziyan?"
Ye Guyi sighed softly. Aside from those two, she couldn't remember anyone else on the sky screen standing on Ye Xiao's side.
Besides, even if those two had stood with Ye Xiao on the sky screen, that didn't mean they would stand with him now!
"The Far North."
As Ye Xiao spoke, he tilted his head back and glanced at Ye Guyi's bound, utterly unremarkable chest, a little disdainful.
"The Far North?"
"You mean the Ice and Snow Emperors?"
"But what makes you think they'll still stand with you in this life?"
Ye Guyi snorted and pinched Ye Xiao's cheek in displeasure. His very rude gaze naturally hadn't escaped the notice of a Soul Grandmaster like her!
That, in turn, brought to Ye Guyi's mind her relationship with Ye Xiao on the sky screen...
A blush stole over Ye Guyi's pretty face.
"Then you tell me. Where else can we go, besides fleeing to the Far North?"
"Guyi, do you really think the Sun Moon Empire will let us off after seeing the sky screen?"
Ye Xiao shrugged, chomped down on Ye Guyi's mischievous finger, and gave it a gentle lick.
"Eww~"
Ye Guyi pulled her finger out in disgust and wiped it on herself.
"But going to the Far North is far too dangerous..."
Ye Guyi sighed softly and lay down on the tree trunk with Ye Xiao in her arms.
Together, they looked up at the sky dotted with leaves overhead.
They had now reached a dead end.
"Guyi, I actually also comprehended a future sight ability."
"This ability lets me communicate with my future self."
"So my future self told me a way to make a deal with the Snow Empress."
"But the ability is too hard to master, so I won't teach it to you just yet."
Ye Xiao began spouting nonsense.
There was no need to hide the ten-thousand-year profound ice marrow from Ye Guyi, but he needed an excuse to conceal his identity as a transmigrator.
Not that there was much to hide about it, but a boy had to have a little secret of his own, didn't he?~
"So your future self told you to go find the Snow Empress now?"
Ye Guyi looked thoughtful, gazing at Ye Xiao a little oddly.
No matter how she heard it, that sounded fake!
He had to copy even sword Qi from the sky screen, and now he could come up with something like this?
"Mm. He told me a way to get the Snow Empress in the palm of my hand."
Ye Xiao smiled mysteriously. In fact, he suspected his future self had used the same method to get the Ice and Snow Emperors in the palm of his hand.
Most likely it was: ice marrow temptation + the two emperors protecting his path + god-making plan.
"He won!"
"He really won!"
Inside the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengya sprang to her feet in excitement, sweeping away her usual calm and gentle demeanor.
That meant that as long as they could protect Ye Xiao for twelve years, he would be invincible!
"I told you to find them. Half a month has passed, so where are they?"
Ning Fengya suppressed her excitement and turned to question the elders in the great hall.
"Sect master, about finding them..."
"I've had people search the entire Heaven Dou Empire and even sent disciples to the Dou Ling Empire and the Star Luo Empire, but we still haven't found any trace of the two of them."
An elderly-looking elder spoke hesitantly, a troubled expression on his face.
Ning Fengya frowned slightly, her fingers tapping gently on the armrest.
She knew full well how difficult this was, but no matter what, she had to try!
"Recall seventy percent of the disciples in the Dou Ling and Star Luo Empires and order them to the Sun Moon Empire."
Ning Fengya closed her eyes, thinking of how Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan, who were well acquainted with Ye Xiao and Ye Guyi, came from Mingdu in the Sun Moon Empire.
And Ye Xiao's base was also in Mingdu...
That being the case, there was a greater chance that Ye Xiao was in the Sun Moon Empire...
