Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 253 The Showdown Between Xue Di and Gu Yue Na

At the very top of Xuedi Peak stands a towering, ice-blue palace building that seems to reach into the clouds.

Because the Ice Bear King Xiaobai had already been arranged by the Snow Empress, the group was not stopped by Xiaobai when they arrived, so there was no chance of any misunderstandings or fights.

When the group arrived at Xue Di's residence, apart from Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, the rest of them couldn't help but look around curiously.

In the past, let alone entering the residence of the Lord of the Far North, they wouldn't have dared to venture into the core area of ​​the Far North, as that would be playing with their lives.

The entire ice palace was simply furnished. Apart from a magnificent throne sculpted from ice and snow, there was only a bed made of 100,000-year-old cold jade and an area resembling a dressing table, simple yet unique.

Meanwhile, Xue Di, who had returned first and had already arranged everything, appeared.

Apart from Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, Meng Hongche, and Yu Qiu'er were all seeing the Snow Empress's image for the first time.

Her transformed adult female form had long, icy blue hair with an ice crystal crown, delicate facial features as if sculpted from ice and snow, and icy blue eyes, exuding an ethereal and gentle aura.

Xue Di has a tall and slender figure with a slim waist and incredibly long legs. Her side profile is particularly striking.

She wore a long, shimmering ice crystal dress, made of a light, sheer fabric adorned with snowflake patterns and beaded chains. With the slightest movement, the light shimmered and danced. She wore ice crystal anklets and was barefoot, her jade-like feet sparkling and translucent, like works of art frozen in time.

Before Huo Yuhao spoke, Xue Di had already clashed with Gu Yuena.

Their eyes met, and there was a strange look in their eyes.

Xue Di hadn't forgotten what Gu Yuena had 'forced' Yuhao to do with her before. That girl had done such an unforgivable thing to Yuhao. If she weren't too weak, she would definitely have gotten her revenge.

Of course, this is from her subjective perspective; in reality, only the parties involved truly know the truth.

However, despite her displeasure, Xue Di had a strange feeling when she actually faced Gu Yue Na.

She wasn't some innocent newbie like Meng Hongchen or Yu Qiu'er, but even though she was the Lord of the Far North, and even though her cultivation level was now approaching 900,000 years, she still subconsciously felt inferior to Gu Yuena.

"so beautiful."

Because of her past intertwined fate with Huo Yuhao, Yu Qiu'er knew about the people in his spiritual sea, but this was the first time Meng Hongchen had seen the Snow Emperor's true appearance.

Embryo?

That thing doesn't count.

Huo Yuhao had already informed Meng Hongchen and the others about the situation, so they weren't too shocked by the attitude of the Lord of the Far North.

Especially for Xiao Hongchen and Ji Juechen, what else could they say? One is the Lord of the Demon Forest, and the other is the Lord of the Far North. Yu Hao is awesome, that's all.

Being praised and admired, especially by Meng Hongchen, made Xue Di feel somewhat proud.

After all, she had never heard this girl praise Gu Yuena in Yuhao's spiritual sea.

"Humph."

Xue Di glanced at Gu Yuena with a hint of arrogance; the two were now at loggerheads.

Now Gu Yuena was certain that the ice and snow elf was targeting her. As for the reason, she glanced at Huo Yuhao, who had already walked to the ice bed, and concluded that it must be because of Huo Yuhao.

A bold idea popped into Gu Yuena's mind: Could someone like Xue Di really be interested in Yu Hao?
Otherwise, there's no way to explain this guy's inexplicable hostility towards me.

Gu Yuena thought it made sense, after all, this guy was Yuhao's first soul spirit, and she was the one who protected Yuhao and turned him into a soul spirit. Although she didn't know what kind of tacit understanding she and Yuhao had reached, she was still clear about Yuhao's charm.

I see.

Thinking of Gu Yuena, she smiled. The reason was simple: she didn't have the strange feeling of being inferior to others like Xue Di did, and after all, she was the first to conquer Yu Hao.

You want to compete with me?
I'll reluctantly put you, this elf from the far north, ahead of Meng Hongchen.
Meng Hongchen and Yu Qiu'er also noticed the subtle atmosphere between Xue Di and Gu Yuena. Neither of them spoke, but their alliance kept them standing together.

The two whispered to each other, but both Xue Di and Gu Yue Na could hear them.

"Hey, Qiu'er, don't you think something's off between Xue Di and Na'er? Na'er has such a strong aura, she can actually go head-to-head with Xue Di?"

Yu Qiu'er's lips twitched; she seemed to have guessed something, but she didn't say anything.

"Don't speak, just watch."

At this moment, Xue Di stepped forward, her usually aloof and mature face showing a hint of unease.

"I will never forgive you for what you did to Yuhao!"

Gu Yuena provocatively reached out and touched Xue Di's head.

"Don't say that, little sprite." She smiled deliberately, as if reminiscing. "If I had known you cared so much, Yuhao should have let you see it back then."

What nonsense are you spouting? Just thinking about the scene back then made Xue Di blush.

It has to be said that she is still too inexperienced compared to Gu Yuena.

Meanwhile, Meng Hongchen and Yu Qiu'er stared wide-eyed.

As if she had stumbled upon some earth-shattering gossip, Yu Qiu'er's thoughts involuntarily returned to that day in Dragon Valley. Meng Hongchen also recalled the strange relationship between Yuhao and Na'er ever since that meeting.

The amount of information contained in Xue Di's words at this moment was simply enormous.

It's confirmed; something must have happened between Yuhao and Na'er that neither of them knows about.

As for Xue Di, who is Yu Hao's spirit, she must have witnessed this scene, which is why she is saying these words now.

Moreover, Meng Hongchen found Na'er to be very strange. She actually dared to speak to the Lord of the Far North like that, and the latter's behavior was also strange, as if he was wary of her.

hiss~
Could Na'er be some kind of reincarnation of a 100,000-year-old soul beast? Otherwise, none of this makes sense. Where did she get such audacity?

Not only Yu Qiu'er and Meng Hongchen were deeply curious about Xue Di's words, but even Tianmeng in the Sea of ​​Spirit was lying on a beach chair watching this scene.

As for Elder Yi and the Evil Emperor in the second sea of ​​consciousness, they are currently busy organizing the true dragon's remains and arranging them in the plane of the dead, so they have no time to watch the drama unfold.

At this moment, the Evil Emperor's admiration for Elder Yi was like a surging river, endless and boundless, almost as if he had the words "I am your little follower" printed on his face.

Here.

Xue Di, as the person involved, no longer wanted to argue with Gu Yue Na. She knew that Gu Yue Na had learned a lot in the human world, and she was no match for her in words.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao, Xiao Hongchen, and Ji Juechen were completely unaware of the commotion on the other side. They were all staring blankly at the guy next to the ice bed in front of them.

A giant ice bear, twenty meters tall and covered in bright silver fur, with limbs exuding extreme cold and pupils resembling icy crystals, was staring at them.

Ice Bear King Xiaobai had already been told the details by the Snow Emperor. When he saw Huo Yuhao, he reluctantly put down the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow in his arms and said sincerely.

"Human, I know why you've come. Thank you for helping my mother survive the 700,000-year tribulation."
