Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 63 The Second in the Far North, The Birth of the Ice Emperor

Qian Renxue nodded. This was easy to understand, since the Three Kingdoms period originally placed great emphasis on family inheritance, and cultivation talents were thus passed down continuously.

Even Qian Renxue was the same. In her previous life, when the Little Devil didn't have a martial soul, Qian Daoliu believed that her angelic martial soul was inherited from her father, and her cultivation talent from her mother. Therefore, he was willing to support Bibi Dong as Pope.

"What's going on with Yuan Yi? I feel that her talent is outstanding in the entire continent," Qian Renxue asked after thinking for a moment.

"Ah, me..." Shen Yuanyi scratched her head.

"I awakened my martial soul automatically amidst the pull of soul power on a battlefield," she explained. "Although I am also from the Sun Moon Empire, I seem to have exceptionally high talent. After His Majesty brought me back from the battlefield, he fed me a celestial herb called 'Jade-Faced Immortal Orchid,' saying that it was very suitable for me."

"Speaking of which, what exactly is your martial soul?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.

"My martial soul is called Qingqiu. After consuming the immortal food given to me by Your Majesty and undergoing a period of seclusion, my body, mental strength, and martial soul have changed again. If I can cultivate to the level of a nine-ring titled Douluo, then my martial soul will become the Jade-Faced Nine-Tailed Fox." Shen Yuanyi glanced at Qian Renxue cautiously. "Miss, it wasn't that I intentionally wanted to hide it from you before."

"It's alright! We weren't familiar with each other before, so it's normal not to reveal the specifics of our martial souls," Qian Renxue said generously.

This little fox actually awakened its own martial soul. This unique talent is indeed worth Ye Xishui's attention, and it's probably because of this that she took Shen Yuanyi back. She is Ye Xishui, who has killed countless people in the Holy Spirit Sect, not Ye Renxin, who saved countless lives in her previous life.

"Miss Shen is considered a genius Soul Master of the Sun Moon Empire. However, if you'd like to learn more about the Soul Masters and Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, I can take you to the Soul Arena in Mingdu," Long Xiaoyao said. "I'm also very curious about just how strong the Heavenly Fate Saintess that Xi Shui mentioned really is!"

The Soul Arena? That's definitely a place where you can get a more direct understanding.

Qian Renxue's eyes lit up: "Okay, then I'll trouble the High Priest to take us there."

Meanwhile, in the northern part of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Ye Xishui and Xue Di walked along a dilapidated corridor and finally arrived at a room at the end of the corridor. This was an orphanage called "Golden Cradle," but it had been abandoned and turned into an empty, ghostly building.

"Are your friends coming today?" Ye Xishui asked as she found a sofa in the room and sat down.

Xue Di raised an eyebrow: "Don't you trust me? The day before yesterday, I sent her a message; that was a signal for us to contact each other privately. You know about that too."

They stopped here, choosing not to go any further. Ye Xishui and Xue Di both stopped at the same time. Xue Di did so because she didn't want this dangerous human to set foot in the far north, while Ye Xishui stopped to express her sincerity and respect for the far north.

"Speaking of which, if it weren't for your aura, some of your words and actions would really seem human," Ye Xishui said. "Is this because you've spent so much time with Xiaoxue?"

"Perhaps. Xiaoxue has a strange kind of affinity, but it's limited to those around her, which makes me trust her without thinking." Xue Di thought for a moment, "Besides, I've been by her side ever since I took human form, so I might unconsciously learn from her."

Xue Di used the word "involuntarily" twice in a row, which was probably because of Qian Renxue, making her disguise herself to be extremely human.

"However, when we were talking about the far north, the aura of a soul beast emperor that you exuded was unique," Ye Xishui said calmly. "If it were Xiaoxue, I think she would have held back; that's her advantage."

Xue Di nodded. In comparison, Qian Renxue was a much better actress. She had no doubt that this Xiao Xue must have some special background, and was not just a descendant of angels. However, Qian Renxue was too good at acting. When she met different people, she would use different expressions, words, and even body language and behavior to package herself as a different person.

"I suspect you're more than just an ordinary ice and snow woman. Although I already have a guess, I still want to get a definite answer from you," Ye Xishui said.

Xue Di hesitated for a moment, because Qian Renxue had told her that if she were ever exposed, she should not reveal her identity as a ferocious beast, but simply say that she was a member of Xue Di's clan. In this way, those who wanted to hunt her down might have to consider Xue Di's wrath.

Anyway, no one knows that there is only one Ice and Snow Woman in the world.

"Hmm." Xue Di finally decided to nod, because the person in front of her was a Limit Douluo, which in the world of soul beasts was almost like Di Tian. In the logic of soul beasts, strength is supreme, and all schemes and tricks will be crushed to ashes by absolute strength.

Suddenly, Ye Xishui put a finger to her lips: "Alright, no need to continue."

Xue Di felt a chill run down her spine. This was what Xiao Xue meant by "tacit understanding." She had learned a new acting technique.

A commotion came from the horizon outside the window. The emerald green glow of the sunset transformed from a simple long band into a gigantic gem-shaped cloud that blotted out the sky and stretched for thousands of miles.

"Actually, you should thank Xiaoxue," Ye Xishui said. "Your friend has made too much of a fuss; she doesn't know how to keep it in check."

The Snow Emperor gave a wry smile. That's how the Ice Emperor is. If the Snow Emperor is the emperor of the far north, then the Ice Emperor is the general. A general always has to charge into battle for the emperor on the battlefield, hence his imposing presence.

At this moment, the general felt the emperor's summons and naturally came to pay his respects as quickly as possible.

A figure in emerald green appeared here. She wasn't very tall; in fact, she was quite young. Her emerald green hair was tied in pigtails and hung down behind her ears. Compared to the Snow Empress, she lacked a bit of arrogance but possessed a cold and aloof beauty. On each side of her captivatingly fair face were four emerald green magic markings.

"Bing'er," Xue Di called softly.

"You, you really are Sister Xue'er?" Bingdi's eyes widened. "You, weren't you in seclusion? How did you turn into this human form?" Suddenly, she looked at Ye Xishui.

"It's this human?!" A murderous intent rose in Hyotei's heart.

"It seems your friend needs to cool down." Ye Xishui didn't care. She smiled faintly, waved her right hand, and absorbed the killing intent and aura revealed by the Ice Emperor into her own martial soul.

"Bing'er, don't worry, I'm sorry to have made you worry." Xue Di stood up, came to Bing Di's side, took her hand, and led her to sit down.

"It's like this..." Xue Di slowly recounted her story after she transformed into human form, until she and Ye Xishui arrived at this desolate orphanage.

Hyotei blinked her beautiful eyes a few times: "My goodness, Sister Yuki, you've only been in the human world for about a month, and you've already experienced so much?"

Xue Di smiled and said, "It's like this. I didn't expect to meet Xiao Xue. She rescued me, and to repay her kindness, I've been following her around ever since, just like you did back then."

Hyotei looked at her warily: "Sister Yuki, you weren't seduced by that Yuki-chan, were you?"

Ye Xishui slightly raised her eyes. It seemed that this Ice Emperor had some special feelings for the Snow Emperor.

Xue Di was taken aback. She hadn't thought about this before. Although she was also a semi-actress, she hadn't thought about it too much.

"Alright, alright." Ye Xishui tapped her fingers on the table. "It's a joyous occasion for friends to reunite after a long time. You need to have some confidence in yourself and her."

Snow Empress nodded slightly: "Bing'er, you don't need to think too much. Actually, I should thank her, because after a soul beast transforms into human form, it needs to come into contact with humans. Only in this way can it absorb human energy and increase its cultivation speed."

"Otherwise, according to my original idea, even if I successfully transformed in the far north, it wouldn't have been of much use to keep myself locked up at home," Xue Di added. "This Xiao Xue is a very good person. After she learned my identity, she treated me as a friend."

Hyotei snorted coldly, clearly not having much goodwill towards humans.

"Then I'll stick even closer to you!" Hyotei's eyes darted around. "Who knows if this friend is planning to fatten you up before killing you?"

"Achoo—!" Qian Renxue, far away in Mingdu, sneezed.

"Miss, are you alright?" Shen Yuanyi asked. "Are you having trouble adjusting to the new environment?"

Qian Renxue waved her hand: "It's nothing, maybe it's just some bastards cursing me."

Ye Xishui blinked. It's settled already?

She originally thought today would be a day of eloquent debate between the Ice and Snow Emperors, but it seems that the Ice Emperor's dependence on the Snow Emperor is beyond imagination.

"Ahem—" Ye Xishui coughed lightly, "In that case, do you think there are any other things that need to be arranged in the far north? Once you've made those arrangements, we can set off again."

"No need," Ice Emperor said to Ye Xishui. "The far north can be considered a pure land on the Douluo Continent. Although the soul beasts fight among themselves, it has always been relatively peaceful under Sister Xue'er's rule over the years. This time we will be away for less than a hundred years, which is nothing."

Ye Xishui nodded slightly, then took out a necklace from her storage space and handed it to Hyotei.

"What is this?" Hyotei asked, taking the necklace.

"This is a high-level soul tool that can help you suppress some of your aura," Ye Xishui said. "After all, you're not a soul beast in human form, and you have a fiery temper. If you get angry, the scent of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion will leak out."

"I have no need for such things," Hyotei said dismissively.

Ye Xishui glanced at Bingdi: "After you entered the human world, you should have a strength of around level ninety-seven, which is impressive, but it doesn't mean you're invincible. So, even with my soul tool, you still need to restrain yourself."

Snow Empress smiled and said, "Bing'er, put it on."

Hyotei paused, puzzled, and said, "Sis, why are you becoming more and more like a human?"

The Snow Empress gave the Ice Empress a gentle pat on the head: "There's no other way. I have no choice but to survive."

I have to rant here. I recently saw the anime version of Hyotei, and I honestly couldn't quite hold back my emotions...

With this, Hyotei has joined the ranks! Qian Renxue's support group has grown even stronger. But this is far from enough; this time, she will lead a massive army to launch an assault on the God Realm.

Of course, the most important person is herself.
