Shui Bing'er's gaze was as cold as ice and snow, exuding an indescribable authority.

"Assisting the Sea God and aiding his tyranny should be severely punished."

Her voice echoed in the hall, as biting as frost, sending chills through everyone present.

The elders of the Sea God Hall turned pale upon hearing her words.

"However, when the apocalyptic tsunami approached, you bravely took action. That courage is commendable," Shui Bing'er continued.

"Considering your concern for the people and the goodness still within you, I shall grant you a chance to atone. You will serve as my divine servants, compensating for your transgressions."

"If you refuse, you will be executed on the spot."

Her words, though calm, carried an oppressive weight that made everyone feel suffocated.

"Thank you, Ice God, for your mercy. We are willing to serve you!"

The elders, shocked to the core, immediately knelt down, expressing their willingness to serve Shui Bing'er to make amends for their mistakes.

Though their faces were filled with dread, inwardly they felt relieved to have escaped death.

Thankfully, Shui Bing'er was not as ruthless as the Sea God.

Just as they were feeling fortunate, Shui Bing'er suddenly unleashed a force of ice, infusing it into their bodies.

"I have placed a restriction within you. If you continue to aid the wicked or betray me, with a single thought, you will be turned into ice statues, forever unable to reincarnate."

"Do you understand?"

Her voice was cold and merciless, carrying an absolute authority.

Elder Seahorse and the others, terrified, knelt and kowtowed, repeatedly pledging, "We dare not disobey. We will serve you with all our hearts, ready to face any hardship in your name, Ice God!"

They knew that obedience to Shui Bing'er was their only option.

Shui Bing'er looked indifferently at the elders, who were trembling with fear, and nodded slightly.

"Since you have shown remorse and recognize your mistakes, it is a good start. I believe you can bring prosperity to the people and contribute to the future of Ice God Island."

She then turned to the kneeling residents of Sea God Island, her voice resonating across the sea, "From today, this island will be renamed Ice God Island. Do not fear. I, the Ice God, will be your protector. Together, we will create a better future."

Her voice was gentle yet firm, "Remember, strength comes with responsibility. I urge you to face challenges bravely and strive for your beliefs and homeland. Only with unity and effort can we create a future full of hope."

Her eyes were filled with expectation, "I believe each of you has limitless potential. If you dare to dream and pursue it courageously, you can create a better tomorrow. Let us work together to build an island of peace, prosperity, and hope."

The residents, deeply moved by her words, felt the benevolence and power of the Ice God.

"Long live the Ice God!!"

The entire island was filled with reverence and gratitude towards the Ice God. The residents expressed their loyalty fervently, their faith burning brighter, eager for a peaceful and happy life under her protection.

Gradually, Shui Bing'er's figure faded into the sea, transforming into drifting snowflakes that disappeared into the wind.

Yet, the residents of Ice God Island remained kneeling, overwhelmed with gratitude and respect. Their eyes shone with devotion and thanks, infinitely reverent of the Ice God.

On the battlefield of the continent, the wind was biting, the air filled with smoke, and the flames of war ravaged the land.

On the horizon, the silhouette of the Ice God slowly faded.

As her image gradually vanished, the soldiers of the Tian Dou and Star Luo Empires knelt in reverence.

"Merciful and just, this is a true deity!"

"God loves all people, guiding them to salvation. This is the essence of divine existence!"

"I was a non-believer, but seeing the Ice God, I understand the greatness of the divine!"

The soldiers prayed devoutly.

Even the soldiers of the Spirit Hall were stunned by the power and compassion Shui Bing'er had just displayed. Many of them found themselves involuntarily kneeling, worshipping the enemy's deity.

"This..."

"Elder Golden Crocodile, what should we do?"

The elders looked towards Elder Golden Crocodile in desperation. Elder Golden Crocodile surveyed the battlefield, his face reflecting his helplessness.

You ask me. What can I do?

His brows furrowed as a sense of foreboding gripped him. His soldiers' morale was plummeting, and some were even bowing to the Ice God. Meanwhile, the enemy's spirits were soaring, their fighting spirit renewed.

"This battle is already lost."

Elder Golden Crocodile shook his head in resignation. "Relay my order: sound the retreat! The entire army is to withdraw!"

Without hesitation, he gave the command. A prompt decision was crucial. With the enemy strong and their own forces weak, they needed to retreat quickly to avoid greater losses.

As the retreat signal sounded, the Spirit Hall's army began to fall back like a retreating tide. Having witnessed the Ice God's might, they were filled with fear and confusion, fleeing the battlefield like frightened lambs.

The once-mighty Spirit Hall army retreated without a fight. The allied forces of the Xingluo and Tiandou Empires were ecstatic. What was supposed to be a bloody battle had ended in victory without a fight due to the Ice God's intervention.

"Long live the Ice God!"

"From now on, the Ice God will be our eternal faith!"

The soldiers raised their arms, cheering in jubilation.

Meanwhile, Shui Wuya was swimming in the depths of the sea with the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. The underwater world was mysterious and magnificent, a different realm altogether. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King skillfully guided Shui Wuya through the blue waters.

Soon, it led Shui Wuya to the ice-encased Poseidon. Using his powerful soul force, Shui Wuya lifted Poseidon from the ocean floor.

As he emerged from the water, Shui Bing'er, riding the Ice Phoenix, flew in from the distance.

"Wuya, our plan succeeded," Bing'er said softly, her voice filled with gratitude and joy. She had always trusted Shui Wuya, but she hadn't expected the plan to go so smoothly.

"Congratulations on completing the divine test and becoming a Titled Douluo," Shui Wuya said with deep affection, his face full of pride and relief.

"If it weren't for you, I could never have done it," Shui Bing'er replied, her eyes brimming with love and admiration.

The two embraced on the water's surface, sharing their joy and gratitude, enveloped in a warm and tender atmosphere.

"Alright, let's go back," Shui Wuya said with a smile, taking Bing'er's hand as they flew towards their original base.
