Seeing Snow Empress walking towards him, Kong Xuan laughed and said, "With you gone, the business of this dessert shop has plummeted."
Snow Empress glanced at the disappearing group, her expression unchanged, and said, "Business comes first."
Meng Hongchen was standing next to Kong Xuan, tightened her grip on Kong Xuan's arm and exchanged a glance with Kong Ling.
Seeing that Kong Ling also shook her head, indicating that she did not recognize the person in front of her, Meng Hongchen then fixed her gaze on the Snow Empress in front of her.
Snow Empress's hair is also white, but it's somewhat different from Gu Yuena's.
Strictly speaking, Gu Yuena's hair is silver-white, while Snow Empress's hair is snow-white.
Clearly, the white-haired, blue-eyed Snow Empress has once again brought Meng Hongchen a great sense of crisis.
With her heterochromatic hair and eyes, Snow Empress's appearance was already comparable to Meng Hongchen and Gu Yuena, but now at eighteen years old, her figure surpasses both of them.
Facing the Snow Empress, Meng Hongchen felt a renewed sense of unease and uncertainty.
Moreover, I originally thought Kong Xuan would give an introduction, but unexpectedly, this process didn't happen.
Kong Xuan glanced at Snow Empress and nodded, saying, "That's right, business is more important, let's set off."
At this moment, apart from Kong Xuan himself, no one else knew where they were going next or what they were going to do afterward.
This wasn't because Kong Xuan deliberately concealed anything, but rather because there were some things that were simply not easy to say openly before they arrived.
Fortunately, the others trusted Kong Xuan completely, so they didn't hesitate and followed him out of Shrek City before flying northwest.
Kong Xuan did not rush on his journey, and thus did not arrive at the vicinity of his destination until noon on the second day.
Looking down from above, there is a vast forest below. Although it is not as large as the Star Dou Great Forest, it is still quite large.
"This is... Sunset Forest!"
Snow Empress's tone shifted from doubt to certainty as she revealed the name of the forest below.
Compared to Gu Yuena, a woman who rarely left the Star Dou Great Forest, Snow Empress did not always stay in the Far North; she had traveled to many places on the continent.
"That's right, it's Sunset Forest."
Kong Xuan nodded, then led the way, flying down to the edge of Sunset Forest.
"Our final destination is somewhere in this Sunset Forest."
Upon hearing this, Kong Ling immediately asked, "Brother, you don't know where it is either?"
Kong Xuan came to Sunset Forest, naturally to find the " Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well ".
The Immortal Herb inside are one of the many opportunities on the Douluo Continent, and Kong Xuan naturally couldn't miss them.
He glanced at everyone. "Although we don't know the exact location, it's somewhere in this Sunset Forest, a place perpetually shrouded in poisonous mist. Once we find that endless poisonous mist, we'll find our destination."
At this point, he changed the subject and said with a smile, "However, before we set off, I still need to give you a brief introduction."
His gaze first fell on Snow Empress, and he said, "You should already know about my sister Kong Ling and my girlfriend Meng Hongchen from the journey here."
Although Kong Xuan hadn't explicitly introduced them beforehand, after spending more than a day together, Snow Empress, who had been in the human world for over a month, could naturally discern their relationship through their way of addressing each other and their interactions.
When Kong Xuan mentioned that she was his girlfriend, Meng Hongchen put on a deliberate smile.
This was because she was happy that Kong Xuan had announced her status as his "official girlfriend," and she couldn't help but show off her victorious attitude in front of Snow Empress, a girl who felt greatly threatened.
Then Kong Xuan glanced at his sister and Meng Hongchen and introduced, " Xue Ling is just her name in the human world. Her true identity is the Heavenly Snow Woman, the leader of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North!"
As soon as Kong Xuan finished speaking, the surrounding air seemed to freeze instantly.
Kong Ling's bright eyes widened instantly, and her small mouth opened unconsciously, wide enough to fit an egg.
The relaxed and curious expression on her face froze completely, her brain seemingly going through a brief shutdown due to processing such astonishing information.
Meng Hongchen reacted just as strongly; she unconsciously tightened her grip on Kong Xuan's arm, her nails even digging slightly into Kong Xuan's skin without her realizing it.
Her face turned pale instantly, her red lips trembled slightly, and her gaze toward Snow Empress was filled with extreme shock and a hint of instinctive horror.
They were all top students at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, and their elders also had Titled Douluo, so they naturally knew some of the secrets of the continent.
The Heavenly Snow Woman, the leader of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North, is a 600,000-year-old Soul Beast and a powerful being ranked third among the Ten Great Ferocious Beast!
Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen stared in disbelief at the white-haired girl standing quietly opposite them, her face serene and beautiful, her demeanor like that of an ice and snow elf.
The two girls' hearts were pounding wildly, their blood was rushing, and the shock of the news left them speechless for a moment. They just stared blankly at Snow Empress.
Snow Empress took in Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen's reactions, her icy blue eyes remaining completely calm.
Kong Xuan glanced at the two people beside him, who looked somewhat dazed, and continued, "You are all familiar with Gu Yuena, but her so-called background as a member of a reclusive family is not true."
Upon hearing this, Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen snapped out of their daze and shifted their gaze from Snow Empress to Gu Yuena's face.
Compared to Snow Empress, Gu Yuena and the others were far too familiar with her.
However, with the news of Snow Empress in front of them, an idea popped into their minds.
Could Gu Yuena also be Soul Beast Transformation?
" Gu Yuena's true identity is the master of the Star Dou Great Forest, half of the Dragon God, and an avatar of the Silver Dragon King!"
The master of the Star Dou Great Forest... the Dragon God... the Silver Dragon King...
Each of these words carried Qian Jun weight, and when combined, they exploded in the minds of Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen like a thunderclap!
I initially thought Gu Yuena was also Ferocious Beast, but I never expected that she would be directly associated with a deity.
Although they were still unsure whether the Silver Dragon King was a god-level Soul Beast, Di Tian of the Star Dou Great Forest was the leader of the Ten Great Ferocious Beast.
Now Kong Xuan says that Gu Yuena is the true master of the Star Dou Great Forest, above Di Tian!
Therefore, her strength must be greater than Di Tian's!
They didn't dare to think of gods, but the fact that the power surpassed that of Di Tian was enough to shock them beyond measure.
Kong Xuan revealed Gu Yuena and Snow Empress's true identities for two reasons: first, Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen were trustworthy people around him; second, Snow Empress and Gu Yuena's identities might be exposed during their upcoming trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Thirdly, the research on Soul Spirit has entered its final stage, and Kong Xuan's plan will be announced soon.
At that time, she will need the support of the Star Dou Great Forest and the Far North. Gu Yuena and Snow Empress will no longer be able to completely hide their identities; at least for some people, they will have to reveal their identities.
Kong Xuan could sense Meng Hongchen's tension and his sister's blank expression. He gently patted the back of Meng Hongchen's hand, signaling her to relax.
Then, in a calm tone, he continued to explain, "Don't be nervous. I'm telling you this so that you can truly understand and be more at ease with each other in the future."
"Although Snow Empress and Na'er are both Soul Beast, they are also our partners."
After recovering from their shock, Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen looked at Snow Empress and Gu Yuena again with a hint of awe in their eyes.
The atmosphere remained somewhat delicate and quiet; it would really take some time for Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen to adjust.
