"Um... I think we can hold out if we hold on, after all, I'm quite confident in my defenses... But the problem is, how do we contact Yu Tianshuang? Are we going to take her straight to Jialing Pass? We might as well just run away..."

Ice Empress felt that her true form was the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and in terms of defense, she was definitely stronger than Snow Empress. However, the fact that she had to deal with Yu Tianshuang left her somewhat at a loss...

Snow Empress turned to Ice Empress with some confusion, and said seriously, "What time is it? You're still joking around with me like this... Hurry up, I... Anyway, I'm not going to contact him first..."

What's going on? Does Xue'er think Yu Tianshuang gave me some kind of communication tool? But I don't have one. Besides, what kind of communication tool in the Douluo Continent can connect people over such a long distance...? Wait, but look at that serious, "Don't try to fool me" expression on her face, do I really have one? Let me think... Did Yu Tianshuang give me some amazing communication tool...?

Whether it was genuine trust in Snow Empress, or a clear understanding of her own mind, Ice Empress preferred to doubt whether she had forgotten something rather than doubt Snow Empress's words...

After carefully recalling the situation several times, and confirming that she absolutely did not have any of the communication tools Yu Tianshuang had given her, Ice Empress said somewhat aggrievedly, "Xue'er... I really don't have any communication tools to contact Yu Tianshuang... I really don't..."

Damn, this woman is messing with me, she's not even fighting me seriously... But even so, I'm starting to struggle. If it weren't for the Ultimate Ice ability, I would have been swept away by this monstrous wave long ago... It's only a level difference, is the gap between level 98 and 99 really that ridiculously large...?

The Snow Empress, who had been bearing the pressure alone, rolled her eyes upon hearing this and turned to glare fiercely at the Ice Empress: "Have you lost your mind from being around Yu Tianshuang for so long? Using that... that contract? Otherwise, how could you contact him across thousands of miles? Damn it, hurry up and make contact, then come help. Fight and retreat as you go, try to increase the distance so Yu Tianshuang has to travel less..."

What? A contract? This thing has this effect? I didn't know that.

After transforming into a human, Ice Empress only glanced at the contract imprinted on her soul at first. Later, she realized that if you ignored it, it was as if it didn't exist, so Ice Empress simply treated it as if it didn't exist. Anyway, Yu Tianshuang wouldn't use the contract for anything... As a result, over the years, Ice Empress never paid any attention to it, let alone researched its functions...

Snow Empress, however, was different. Ever since she became human, the existence of this contract had been like a thorn in her side. She would spend almost all her free time investigating it, trying to figure out if she could break it. Although her attempts were repeatedly unsuccessful, she had managed to discover several of the contract's functions. She thought that Ice Empress, having become human much earlier, should understand these things better than she did. But hearing this, she was speechless. Ice Empress really was just as she had said—completely disregarding the contract, treating it like it was invisible...

Terrifying! Bo Saixi's strength is indeed terrifying. Although Snow Empress knew this woman was just toying with her, even so, the incredibly heavy waves still broke through her defenses, sending her crashing into a giant tree. She quickly got up and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. "Cough cough... Listen carefully, sink your mind into your soul, feel that contract, then use your Divine Power to open it. Don't pay attention to the words that appear; reading them is useless. Those are just unfair conditions imposed on us. Envelop what you want to say in your Divine Power and transmit it there, so Yu Tianshuang can feel it... Hurry up, finish and come help!"

"Oh, no, Xue'er, you're so good at it, you can just practice by yourself. I still need to learn... I'll block her first, you..." Ice Empress was about to do as she said when she suddenly realized, wait a minute, Xue'er is so good at it, why should I learn it?

Before Ice Empress could finish speaking, he was interrupted, "Hurry up, I... I will not contact him, not even if it kills me. You want me to contact him? Dream on!"

"You two, have you had enough? Now you realize the difference in strength, right? Shui Yue'er, my purpose in coming here is simple. I just want to ask you one question: Did you make this decision because of him? How important is he to you that he could make you make this choice? Do you know what your identity means?"

Bo Saixi's senses had been sharpened during the brief battle, revealing that there were no temples in this forest. She knew that these two women with ice attributes had undoubtedly relinquished their positions as Great Enshrined and successors to the gods, leaving the temple. She desperately wanted to know what answer this person, sharing the same identity as her, would give her. Would it be different from the answer she received when she questioned Qian Daoliu years ago...?

Snow Empress pondered for a moment, but before she could answer Bo Saixi's question, Ice Empress's anxious and aggrieved voice came from behind her. "Xue'er... I can't do it, I'm too nervous... I can't feel that contract in my soul at all... Waaah..."

"..." Forget it, I'll have to do it myself... But she really didn't want to do it. However, she knew she couldn't rely on that silly girl from Ice Empress now. Oh well, if Yu Tianshuang dared to be smug or do anything excessive, she would fight to the death... She could use this woman's problem to buy herself some time.

"How important is he to me? You seem very curious. Don't you have anyone important in your life? Someone who would give their life for you, someone who would give up everything to save you?"

Upon hearing this, Bo Saixi fell into a brief moment of contemplation. Meanwhile, Ice Empress joined Snow Empress on guard, while Snow Empress reluctantly began to use the contract she had studied hundreds of times to communicate with Yu Tianshuang.

"When I think of your question, the first person that comes to mind is someone I used to... no, I should say someone I still love now... But your question is two-way... Perhaps I can answer you now: I could give up my life for him, or anything I have, but he... would probably be like I was back then, wouldn't do that. Back then, the most important thing in our hearts wasn't each other. I don't know if he's changed his mind like I have now, and I have no way of knowing..."

Bo Saixi only understood her true thoughts after her battle with Yu Tianshuang, just as her life was about to end... But it was too late to say anything now. Tang San was about to complete his final God Trial, and she was about to become the key for him to inherit the Godhood. Tang Chen... had already died at Yu Tianshuang's hands... He didn't get a clear answer from that letter, so she was uncertain.

"I have him! Yu Tianshuang is that person. My life, everything I have now, is because he risked his life for it. Otherwise, I would have died long ago. So your question is foolish. Whatever choice you make for him is right, because he deserves it!"

Ice Empress looked at the frank Snow Empress beside her with some surprise, then firmly raised her hand and said, "Yes, yes, yes!!! Me too!" Ice Empress looked at the frank Snow Empress beside her with some surprise, then firmly raised her hand and said that these were also the words she had always wanted to say to Yu Tianshuang. For the two of them, their lives were given to them by him, and it was worth doing anything for him, even if it meant giving their lives or their souls!
