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

Since it was the truth, she didn't feel ashamed at all.

Of course, she would never tell anyone that Ye Chen had forcibly captured her.

"What! You sacrificed yourself to that kid... No, after the sacrifice, why were you still able to retain your consciousness and body? Why were you still able to unleash such powerful strength?"

Di Tian was surprised, astonished that the Snow Empress had sacrificed herself for a human.

At the same time, he had even more doubts in his mind.

The sacrifice of spirit beasts to humans is not unprecedented in history.

After the sacrifice, the soul beast will lose everything. Not to mention its body, it will not even retain its consciousness. Everything will be completely destroyed, and there will be no possibility of resurrection!

Unless one possesses an extraordinary stroke of luck, it is impossible to retain consciousness, or even be resurrected...

However, Xue Di's condition is clearly not as simple as just being resurrected.

The other party is clearly bound to the human in the distance, yet it possesses a complete consciousness and body, and even has strength no less than that of the original body. How exactly did it manage to do that?
"If you want to know, you can offer a sacrifice; he shouldn't refuse your service."

Xue Di's lips curled slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

Upon hearing this, Di Tian fell silent.

Clearly, to have the Beast God, ranked first among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, sacrifice himself to a human boy who hasn't even grown a beard yet, is a blatant insult and would be ridiculed by other soul beasts for millions of years.

He would never do such a thing, even if you killed him.

However, that human was indeed quite capable to have managed to get both the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress to willingly sacrifice themselves.

"Alright, for your sake, I won't pursue the matter of you injuring the Crimson King. Also, go back and tell that human brat not to mess with the auspicious beasts, or no one can protect him!"

After speaking, Di Tian left immediately, withdrawing his terrifying intent and pressure, and taking the Crimson King with him.

Di Tian had seen everything that happened with the auspicious beast, but since Ye Chen hadn't harmed it, Di Tian didn't bother to deal with it.

Moreover, the fact that both the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor chose that human is enough to show that human's attitude towards soul beasts.

The Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor know the value of the auspicious beast, and they will definitely remind that human of the stakes involved.

……

Seeing that Di Tian had left, Xue Di turned around and returned to Ye Chen's side.

"Snow Empress, you're back. Did Di Tian come looking for you?"

Ye Chen asked with a smile.

"You already know everything, why are you asking?"

Xue Di rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, clearly displeased that he had asked her to be his henchman.

After saying that, Xue Di immediately disappeared back into Ye Chen's spiritual sea.

After all, there were outsiders present, and she didn't bother to say anything more to Ye Chen.

"Forehead……"

Ye Chen touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, but he was used to Xue Di's personality and didn't really care.

Moreover, his mental strength was so great that he naturally heard the conversation between Xue Di and Di Tian just now, and he just asked a question casually.

Di Tian probably doesn't want to interact with humans, so he's too lazy to even come looking for him.

However, Ye Chen was happy with this arrangement, since he and Di Tian didn't have much to talk about. Di Tian's bottom line was that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion couldn't be harmed, and Ye Chen only needed to leave the Three-Eyed Golden Lion alone.

Ye Chen turned his gaze to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

He didn't take out many snacks, but the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had already eaten them all and was now licking the packaging.

"Is it good? Do you want more?"

Ye Chen walked up to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and gently rubbed its fluffy head.

"Mmmmm~"

The three-eyed golden lion nodded hurriedly, and even subconsciously rubbed against Ye Chen's hand.

Most animals are exceptionally affectionate towards their feeders, even spirit beasts. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had just enjoyed its meal and naturally didn't mind Ye Chen patting its head.

"I didn't bring many snacks this time. Why don't you come with me to the human city? I guarantee you'll have plenty of snacks."

Ye Chen patiently and gently coaxed her, his tone as gentle as a strange uncle trying to lure a little girl.

"Ugh... No, no... I can't leave the Star Dou Great Forest, and Di Tian won't let me go to the human world."

Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion shook its head repeatedly.

"The human world is great. How will you know if you don't try?" Ye Chen still refused to give up.

"Hmm... Humans are treacherous and cunning. If I go, I might get arrested... You don't really think I'm stupid, do you..."

The three-eyed golden lion rolled its eyes at Ye Chen and muttered something under its breath.

Although it is young, it is not stupid.

The human world is a den of dragons and tigers. She admits that Ye Chen is a good person, but others may not be.

Many humans, even if they don't need spirit rings, will slaughter spirit beasts on sight; it has seen quite a few such spirit masters.

"Alright, alright, since you've eaten so much of my food, can't you do me a favor?"

Ye Chen shrugged and said.

He was just trying to see if he could fool them successfully. If he failed, he wouldn't lose anything. He had plenty of time. If he didn't succeed the first time, he could try a few more times.

"What kind of help? Let me make this clear first, I won't help you hunt soul beasts," the Three-Eyed Golden Lion said warily.

However, since it had accepted so much from Ye Chen, it couldn't very well refuse directly.

"My friend needs a 100,000-year spirit ring. You should know the lair of some 100,000-year spirit beasts, right? Just show me the way."

Ye Chen said with a smile.

"No way! I'm a soul beast! You're asking me to lead the way to hunt soul beasts? You're asking me to betray the soul beasts!"

The three-eyed golden lion immediately became agitated and glared angrily at Ye Chen.

"Anyway, even if you don't lead the way, we're still going to hunt soul beasts. It's only natural for soul masters to hunt soul beasts. It's precisely because you're a soul beast that we might accidentally kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast that you know. That's why we're asking you to lead the way."

"Besides, aren't some of your soul beasts quite ferocious, even killing their own kind? If you point me in the right direction, I'll help you get rid of this menace."

Ye Chen said matter-of-factly, his tone still carrying a strong sense of deception.

Soul beasts are not a monolithic entity; some soul beasts are particularly bloodthirsty, which is equivalent to "evil" soul beasts.

These types of spirit beasts are often quite powerful.

Zhang Lexuan is an offensive type, so this type of soul beast should be very suitable for her, which can be considered a win-win situation.

Moreover, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is arrogant by nature, and only ferocious beasts such as Di Tian and Chi Wang can be regarded as friends by it. Other soul beasts are just "subjects" or even "food" to it.

If the Three-Eyed Golden Lion can convince itself of its own heart, then it is very likely to agree.

Sure enough, after some internal struggle, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion finally agreed.

"Alright, I happen to know of a wretched 100,000-year-old soul beast. I'll take you there!"

The three-eyed golden lion seemed to have thought of something, and its eyes suddenly turned fierce.

Although it is an auspicious beast, not all soul beasts will treat it with respect.

Some soul beasts are born ferocious and bloodthirsty, and are inherently arrogant.

In particular, one of the 100,000-year-old "Dark Moon Demon Tigers" often killed other 10,000-year-old soul beasts without reason, and even chased after it, but was driven away by the Crimson King.

Anyway, Ye Chen and his group will definitely have to kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast before they can go back, and it can't stop them.

Rather than letting Ye Chen accidentally kill some normal soul beasts, it would be better to sell the Dark Moon Demon Tiger to Ye Chen, thus eliminating a scourge for the other soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.
