Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

"Ok?"

Just as Xue Di was about to freeze and crush Ye Chen completely, her icy gaze suddenly sharpened.

The sharp, icy gaze instantly shifted from Ye Chen, fixing on the ridiculously small, ferocious ice scorpion perched on Ye Chen's shoulder.

"Hyotei...?"

Xue Di widened her beautiful eyes slightly, seemingly in disbelief.

Although the aura emanating from the other person was completely different, her intuition told her that this was Hyotei!

"It's me, Xue Di! Don't make a move. I sent Ye Chen to find you. Ye Chen is a good person, you can't hurt him!"

When Hyotei saw that Yuki-tei had stopped, Hyotei also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Chen is her man, and also her host.

If Ye Chen is killed, then she will be killed too!
"Bing...Bing'er?!"

For the first time, Xue Di's eternally cold tone trembled violently, filled with disbelief and astonishment.

"It really is you... but your aura... how come it has become so weak?"

"And... how come you're with a human?!"

After the initial shock came a furious rage, like a volcanic eruption!
Snow Empress suddenly looked at Ye Chen again, the killing intent in her eyes instantly soaring to its peak, and the ice mist around her churned violently, forming a raging vortex of ice and snow.

"Damn humans!"

"What exactly did you do to Hyotei?"

"Her soul was imprisoned?"

"Or was her will twisted by evil magic?!"

Xue Di's voice was chilling and piercing.

At this moment, Xue Di seemed to be convinced that this despicable human must have used some extremely evil means to turn her proud and powerful sister, Bing Di, into the weak and pitiful state she is now, even reduced to protecting humans!
The extreme chill that erupted instantly was like an ancient ice cave, even more intense than before.

A terrifying chill swept over Ye Chen, almost freezing him completely.

"Snow Empress! You've misunderstood!"

Hyotei was so anxious she was practically jumping up and down. Her small body spun around frantically in the air, and she even flew in front of Yuki-tei, transforming into human form and waving her little hands as she hurriedly explained, "Ye Chen didn't do anything to me! He didn't hurt me! It was my own choice! I willingly became like this!!"

"What, voluntary??"

Xue Di's beautiful face was filled with confusion and even greater disbelief. Her voice suddenly rose, filled with a strong questioning tone.

"Bing'er, are you crazy?! How could you choose a human?! And you've gotten yourself into this state!!!"

Snow Empress couldn't understand. She couldn't understand how the Ice Empress, who was once arrogant and looked down on humans as ants, would "voluntarily" become like this.
This was even harder for her to accept than seeing Hyotei critically injured and dying; it completely overturned her understanding!
"I'm not crazy! Snow Empress, calm down and let me explain!!"

Hyotei knew that Yuki-tei was similar to her before, extremely hostile to humans, and also had a great misunderstanding of Ye Chen.

Immediately, Ice Emperor shouted at top speed, as if pouring out beans: "The human I'm attached to isn't an ordinary human. His name is Ye Chen, and his martial soul is... the absolute king of extreme ice—the Ice Dragon King! It's higher than all the ice-type bloodlines of us far-northern soul beasts, a true superior bloodline!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Di's icy blue pupils narrowed slightly, and the killing intent in her gaze toward Ye Chen lessened, but it remained cold and scrutinizing.

A Soul Master with a powerful bloodline could indeed impress her.

Especially since it is the king of ultimate ice, with the same attributes as the Ice Emperor, but its bloodline level is higher than the Ice Emperor's.

But the Ice Dragon King has long since vanished. Even if a human could awaken the Ice Dragon King's bloodline, it would never be a pure one. Seeing the Snow Empress waver, the Ice Empress continued to explain, "That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that my time is almost up, Snow Empress. That four hundred thousand-year calamity... I... I feel I won't be able to survive it. I'll face certain death..."

Speaking of the great calamity, Hyotei's voice still carried a trace of barely concealed fear and lingering dread.

Xue Di's heart sank suddenly.

She always kept in mind the impending end of Hyotei.

But that's not a reason!

"So... you chose to sacrifice yourself to him, to become attached to a human whose lifespan is only a few decades?"

Xue Di's voice lowered, cold and filled with deep disappointment and heartache.

She understood the Ice Emperor's fear of the Great Calamity, a nightmare for all high-level soul beasts.

But sacrificing oneself to humans, in Xue Di's view, was a complete abandonment of the dignity of the strong, an unacceptable form of depravity!

"It's not a sacrifice!"

Hyotei immediately shook her head excitedly, her little face glowing with the excitement of having found a way out. "This is a completely new form of contract, called Soul Spirit! Snow Empress, this is our only way!"

"Soul?"

The Snow Empress felt completely unfamiliar with this word, and her vigilance and repulsion intensified. "What is that? Humans are treacherous and cunning. Ice Empress, don't be fooled by them!"

“The soul is…” Hyotei struggled to organize her thoughts, trying to make Yuki-tei understand this revolutionary concept.

"I retained my complete soul and all my consciousness, and I became part of his spirit ring, sharing his life force and spirit power growth. I can also help him fight..."

Seeing that the Snow Empress's gaze remained unmoved, the Ice Empress grew anxious and immediately dropped the most crucial bombshell: "The most important thing is Ye Chen's talent!"

Ice Emperor hurriedly said, "Ye Chen's talent is unprecedented. When he becomes a god in the future, he may even be able to use the power of the laws of the divine realm to help me reshape the most perfect physical body and obtain true immortality!"

"Huh? Become a god? Live forever?"

A hint of undisguised mockery appeared on Xue Di's exquisite face, as if she were watching a childish joke.

Ten thousand years ago, only seven people became gods.

She has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and not a single human has ever become a god.

Those seven people from ten thousand years ago were most likely just lucky and received the favor of the world.

Over the past ten thousand years, she has seen many brilliant human geniuses, including no fewer than a hundred level 99 Limit Douluo, all of whom eventually turned into dust.

Becoming a god? It's not that easy.
Snow Empress's icy gaze swept over Ye Chen, carrying an indifferent indifference as if she had seen through the ways of the world: "Bing'er, have you been brainwashed by this human's sweet talk? Becoming a god is so difficult. This kind of illusory hope is even more absurd and laughable than us trying to withstand a million-year calamity with our own strength!"

Her tone was full of disappointment and reproach.

I think Hyotei is too foolish to believe a human.

"Snow Empress, it's true. Others might not be able to do it, but Ye Chen definitely can, because Ye Chen is only 13 years old this year!"

Hyotei looked serious and directly stated Ye Chen's age.

"what!"

Upon hearing Ye Chen's age, Xue Di's pupils suddenly contracted!
She could sense Ye Chen's aura; he was an extremely powerful ice-attribute Soul Emperor, which truly impressed her.

She thought the other person's youth was an act, but she never expected that the other person was actually younger than she imagined!
