Douluo: My wife Liuying makes Ning Rongrong cry
Chapter 249 Soul
Hyotei and Yuki-tei were like sisters, with a very close relationship. Hyotei was the one who felt the most heartbroken about Yuki-tei's plight.
Moreover, the Snow Emperor's present is also the Ice Emperor's future.
The Ice Emperor's cultivation level is now over 300,000 years, and he is not far from the Heavenly Tribulation of 400,000 years.
For them, the next tribulation will mean their end is near.
Perhaps these are the last moments they have left in this world.
"Bing'er, we are truly sisters with tragic fates," Xue Di sighed.
Then, Xue Di looked at Lu Jiang and the others and said bitterly, "I'm sorry, you've made a fool of yourselves."
Lu Jiang did not rush to comfort the two women, but instead fell into deep thought, and a bold idea slowly emerged.
"Every family has its own troubles," Liu Ying said, her sympathy overflowing.
"Pioneer, you can't bear to see these two beautiful older sisters get hurt, can you? You have to think of something!" Liu Ying tugged at Lu Jiang's sleeve, urging him on.
This girl treats Lu Jiang like he's omnipotent.
This is understandable, since from beginning to end, there was no problem, big or small, that Lu Jiang couldn't solve.
"Oh, little sister, this is the destiny of our soul beasts. You don't need to make things difficult for Lu Jiang," Xue Di advised.
Xue Di certainly didn't want to perish, but she also didn't want to cause inconvenience to her friend.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jiang's words at this moment caused the two emperors of ice and snow to change their expressions drastically.
"Perhaps... I really do have a way to help you get through this ordeal," Lu Jiang said calmly.
What? ? ?
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress were instantly unsettled, staring intently at Lu Jiang with eyes filled with hope for survival.
"Lu Jiang, are you telling the truth?"
"I know you're very capable, but this kind of thing can't be accomplished just by being capable," Xue Di said, regaining her composure.
“I understand, but my method is indeed feasible, it’s just that…” Lu Jiang kept it a secret.
"But what?" Hyotei asked hastily.
"It just requires the two of you to make some sacrifices."
Hyotei and Yukiteri exchanged a glance and nodded in unison.
Since none of them were confident they could withstand the upcoming tribulation, even if Lu Jiang's proposed method involved some sacrifices, it was still much better than dying directly, right?
Therefore, they were willing to listen to what Lu Jiang had to say first.
Lu Jiang proposed a brand-new term—soul.
"What is a soul spirit? I've only ever heard of soul rings," Hyotei asked, bewildered.
"Soul spirits and soul rings have similarities, but they are also fundamentally different," Lu Jiang patiently explained.
The biggest difference is that after a soul beast becomes a soul spirit, it still retains its original consciousness, but it possesses the soul master's body.
"Is it like a parasite and a host?" Xue Di asked.
"Your understanding is a bit strange, but it is indeed somewhat similar."
Lu Jiang stated that if the two women become spirits, they will no longer have to worry about the threat from the heavenly tribulation.
There are downsides, though, that is, losing one's freedom and being forced to reside within a Soul Master's body.
"Absolutely not!" Xue Di immediately shook her head in opposition.
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress are on good terms with Lu Jiang, but that doesn't mean they trust humans.
Soul beasts generally don't have a good impression of humans.
Humans, driven by selfish desires, wantonly slaughter spirit beasts for those spirit rings.
"Don't rush me, I haven't finished yet!" Lu Jiang said helplessly.
“Lu Jiang, it’s not that we don’t trust you, it’s that we can’t trust any human Soul Master.”
"As everyone knows, humans are cunning and only care about their own interests," Xue Di said coldly.
Taking advantage of Xue Di's inattention, Lu Jiang rolled his eyes, as if he, Lu Jiang, wasn't a human soul master. The more he listened, the more awkward his words sounded.
"What if this human soul master is me? You still can't trust me?" Lu Jiang asked slowly.
Hyotei and Yuki-tei remained silent.
"If you are willing to become my spirits, you will be completely bound to me from now on."
"If I die, you will all die with me."
"As long as I live, you will live forever."
Lu Jiang also promised them that if he were to become a god in time, he would have a way to separate the Ice and Snow Emperors from his body.
By that time, Hyotei and Yuki-tei will be no different from gods, possessing eternal lifespans.
The room fell silent.
Three minutes later, Xue Di broke the silence.
"Lu Jiang, are you serious?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Lu Jiang retorted.
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. It's just that everything you've said is just too...unbelievable," Xue Di explained.
Lu Jiang's ideas and concepts were too advanced; they were still digesting what they had just heard.
"I've said pretty much everything I need to say. The choice is yours. Think it over carefully," Lu Jiang said.
That afternoon, Lu Jiang took the three women outside for a stroll to admire the beautiful ice and snow scenery of the far north.
They didn't return to the palace until late at night.
Hyotei and Yuki-tei had been waiting for a long time, standing there looking like they wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Say whatever you want to say."
"That's right, we believe you, but there's still one problem," Hyotei said softly.
"what is the problem?"
Hyotei wondered if Lu Jiang, if he failed to become a god, would perish along with Hyotei and Yuki when his lifespan ended and he became a spirit.
"Yes," Lu Jiang replied crisply.
The two emperors of ice and snow frowned slightly; this was not good news.
Although the probability of humans becoming gods is much higher than that of soul beasts, throughout history, very few people have ever become gods.
They couldn't even remember when or when someone last became a god.
However, if Lu Jiang fails to become a god, his lifespan will only be around three hundred years.
The Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor are more than three hundred years away from the next Heavenly Tribulation.
All things considered, this seems to be a losing proposition.
"Are you worried that the Trail Blazers won't become gods?" Firefly suddenly asked.
"This..." Hyotei was too embarrassed to speak.
They do have this concern, but they're too embarrassed to say it outright.
"Becoming a god is especially easy for pioneers!" Firefly said proudly.
Becoming a god? Easy?
Words are no proof. The two emperors of ice and snow could not believe Liu Ying's one-sided account, but in order to save face for both sides, they could only smile slightly and acknowledge her.
"You still don't believe me, do you?"
“Alright, then I’ll tell you, not long ago several gods descended from the sky, intending to harm the pioneers,” Firefly said to herself.
She was clearly getting carried away, blurting out this without even asking Lu Jiang if it was permissible.
Lu Jiang didn't blame Liu Ying, because Liu Ying's words were just right this time.
"Did God... really descend to earth?" Hyotei was stunned.
"Would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, you can go to Heaven Dou City and ask around. Many people saw it!" (End of Chapter)
