Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 50: Choice, Battle (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
As if seeing that the three people had not given an answer for a long time, Shu Yan and Xue Di on the side looked at each other, and then continued to speak, but his tone was slightly gentler.

"What I have shown you is enough for you now. It may still not impress you, but this is not a big problem. It can even be said to be easy to solve."

After saying that, Shu Yan coughed lightly, pulling the three people out of their shock and contemplation. He looked at the calm Xue Di beside him, shrugged, and then said:
"Perhaps, I should introduce this senior to you more seriously, so that your views may change faster."

"I've said it before. This senior is called the Ice God. He is the chief worshiper of the Imperial Worship Hall, a level 99 Strong Attack Douluo, and also my teacher. As for whether it's true or not, you can ask Elder Qian. The answer he gives you will only be the same as what I say."

Following Shu Yan's voice, the three people's gazes all fell on the Snow Emperor who was emitting a cold aura. Almost subconsciously, the three people's throats slowly rolled. In their eyes, the Snow Emperor, who had originally had an ordinary and restrained aura, suddenly seemed to have changed his appearance. Just a very normal glance made them break out in a cold sweat.

In response, Xue Di just glanced at Shu Yan calmly and did not have any other reaction.

Before coming here, she had already guessed that Shu Yan would use her to speed up the process of conquering the descendants of the Spirit Hall survivors. Now that she thought about it, she really understood Shu Yan.

Shu Yan noticed Xue Di's calm gaze, but for some reason, he saw a hint of... seeking praise in it? ?

As if realizing that his idea was too dangerous, Shu Yan quickly stopped and interrupted his strange idea. He turned to look at the three people again and said:
"It's time to make a choice. Will you follow me and fight for the glory and splendor of the past, or will you wait for Shrek to grow stronger and eventually destroy you like rats in a stinky ditch? Give me your answer now."

Chen Ming and Wang Lin looked at each other with complicated emotions in their eyes. Subconsciously, they looked at Luo Qinghan, who was still sitting on the sofa in front of them in silence, but still did not get any useful response.

The two's thoughts raced in a short period of time. The humiliation of ten thousand years ago seemed to be vivid in their minds. Considering the current situation of their own family power, Chen Ming, who was dressed in red and had very flamboyant red short hair, took the lead in taking a step forward and said:

"To be honest, I know the situation of our family very well. We can either abandon the hatred and shame of ten thousand years and choose to go out into the world to seek a way to survive, or we can destroy Shrek and rebuild the reputation that our ancestors made on the continent."

"I don't know what other people will do, but at least I know how hopeless everything our ancestors have admitted is. Entering the world is undoubtedly a disguised way of surrendering to our ancestors' former enemies. It's up to everyone to do it, but I can't do it anyway. If it's really like what you said, I, Chen Ming, will follow you in the future!"

Shu Yan looked at Chen Ming's opinion with some surprise, then chuckled and said:

"It must be so..."

Beside Chen Ming, Wang Lin, dressed in black, was also thinking with his eyes lowered. His gaze swept back and forth between Shu Yan and Xue Di beside him, and soon, he also made his choice.

"If it is really based on the premise you mentioned, I am willing to join."

As he spoke, he forced a smile onto his cold and stiff face, but it looked a little awkward no matter how you looked at it.

Shu Yan also smiled gently and then nodded.

When his eyes fell on Luo Qinghan who had not yet made a choice, Shu Yan was not in a hurry. Through the previous contact, he could judge that Luo Qinghan was a smart person. Of course, he was not disappointed with the final result.

"I am willing to join, but I have one last request."

Luo Qinghan's cold voice sounded, and Shu Yan's figure was reflected in her beautiful smoky blue eyes, as if she was waiting for the result.

"Go ahead, as long as it's not excessive, everything can be negotiated." Shu Yan said with a chuckle, his tone was much friendlier and gentler than his initial indifference.

"I want to fight you. Or rather, all of us want to fight you. We know what kind of existence the Ice and Snow Girl is, and we know how rare and powerful the extreme attributes are. But just like our belief, only those who defeat us on the battlefield are qualified to become our boss."

Shu Yan raised his eyebrows and then said:
"Okay, I agree. According to the intelligence I know, there should be more than three of you leading your group. Tell them your choice. Tomorrow, there will be a battle at the Xingluo Arena. At that time, you can choose to fight one-on-one or all of you together. Remember the time, tomorrow at noon."

As he spoke, Shu Yan stood up with Xu Jiujiu and Xue Di, who had remained silent. He looked around at the three of them, smiled, and then led the two girls out of the magnificent hall...

……

When passing by the lobby downstairs, facing the curious or fearful gazes of the people in the group, Shu Yan gently knocked on the buddy who was still a block of ice. After a crisp sound, the ice that seemed indestructible in the eyes of others shattered, and the big man inside was suddenly unsealed. For a moment, he couldn't help but gasp for breath, half-knelt on the spot, trembling all over, with ice crystals still on his hair, eyelashes and other hair, looking pitiful as if he had been severely bullied.

Shu Yan patted his shoulder and said with a chuckle:

"This isn't the way you test others. Remember to be smarter next time and suffer less."

After he finished speaking, Shu Yan no longer paid attention to the fear in the big man's eyes, and walked out of the main entrance of the hotel with the two women. Not long after, the sound of the carriage starting was heard, and those who were still in shock slowly came to their senses. They looked at each other, and no one knew what to do next.

……

It was not until the carriage drove back into the busy streets that the surrounding noise gradually overshadowed what had just happened. After a long while, he softly asked:
"Ayan, although I have great confidence in your strength, I still can't help but feel a little worried if the other party chooses to join forces to fight. After all, the opponent is not a genius from a small sect, but an ancient family that has been passed down in the dark for nearly ten thousand years..."

"Besides, such a short contact cannot prove many things. It is not even enough for us to get to know them in depth. What if they only agreed on the surface, but secretly..."

Having said that, Xu Jiujiu’s meaning is actually very clear.

But when Shu Yan heard this, he just stretched out his hand and gently scratched his smooth and straight nose for a long time, then said softly:
"Don't worry about it. Those who can become leaders are not fools. They will not only think about problems from their own perspective, but also make choices based on the situation of the forces behind them. This is their fate and responsibility. Don't worry, if they have brains, they will make the right choice sooner or later after verifying some things."

"It's not difficult to subdue them in a short period of time, but it's inevitable that we have to throw out some bait to let them see the fishy smell."

"The talent and confidence I showed gave them hope of being able to stand at the top of the continent again. When they found that following me could bring them benefits and advantages that they had never dared to imagine, they would gradually learn how to write the word loyalty..."

At this point, Shu Yan's tone changed slightly, and then he continued:

"Of course, if they are really hopeless, then I can only say that I misjudged them. The loss to us is not that big..."
