672, I also accidentally fell down_1

```

Whose kid is this, randomly calling someone dad?!

Lin Yi glared.

It was the first time the Snow Emperor had seen such a subtle change in expression on Lin Yi's face, but she didn't dare to laugh, immediately covering Little Snow Maiden's mouth instead.

"Don't talk nonsense, you're not on the attack list, how can you force yourself into the attacker's team? This will delay everyone's time!"

After the Snow Emperor spoke, she glanced in Gu Yuena's direction, who had a cold and stern look, appearing extremely formidable.

But Queen Medusa was not just after the rewards for attacking.

Establishing a connection with Lin Yi was her top priority, of course, had the Snow Emperor been a bit more promising, she wouldn't have had to go through such trouble.

According to her nature, she was someone who couldn't be bothered with others, but now the situation was different, she was in a strange place called Soul Land, with an innocent mother and a mischievous aunt.

Queen Medusa had no choice but to abandon her usual way of doing things and choose to integrate into the rhythm of Soul Land.

"I want to attack, I'm going to attack!"

Seeing that her mother disagreed and Lin Yi remained silent, Little Snow Maiden lay down on the ground and started rolling.

Unfortunately, with so many people around, she was the only one who didn't realize that her true identity had already been exposed.

Lin Yi chuckled. "Are you too fastidious for your age? Do you need to cover the ground with a layer of ice before you roll around?"

Little Snow Maiden was stunned and looked down at the ground below, then furrowed her cute eyebrows.

Why are Lin Yi's points of focus so tricky?

"I don't care, I want to attack, and whoever tries to attack before me, I'll freeze them!"

Gu Yuena turned to look at her. "Try to freeze me."

Zi Ji immediately stepped in front of Gu Yuena. "My lord, my lord, there's no need to get angry with a child, calm down! Calm down!"

As if she isn't a child herself… Gu Yuena muttered inwardly.

Little Snow Maiden's chubby little hands were hovering with white frost, it seemed she was ready to use her powers, but fortunately, Zi Ji gave her an out, and everyone knew she had an adult's soul living inside her, with the only exception being Gu Yuena who couldn't be bothered to give Medusa the face.

Lin Yi: "Go ahead and attack, I'll give you a chance, but you only get one shot."

Little Snow Maiden pouted and swaggered towards the stage.

The Snow Emperor looked on with concern at this scene, worried that the little one would cause havoc on stage. After a brief exchange of glances with the Ice Emperor, the Snow Emperor quickly followed her daughter onto the stage.

"Why are you here, mom?"

Little Snow Maiden turned and asked.

"Mommy is here to protect you, and to assist you if you need it."

Little Snow Maiden instinctively wanted to reject the offer but seemed to think of something suddenly, a sly gleam appearing in the corner of her eye. She looked up and smiled, "Then you have to protect me well, okay?"

"Of course!"

The Snow Emperor smiled and rubbed her daughter's cheek, but just then, Little Snow Maiden suddenly rushed toward Lin Yi. The Snow Emperor was caught off guard, and when she thought her daughter had suddenly launched an attack, she realized that Little Snow Maiden was just holding a snowball, seemingly intending to smack it onto Lin Yi's face!

This wasn't an attack on Lin Yi, this was an insult to Lin Yi!

What on earth was this little rascal thinking? Coming onto the stage to play a snowball-throwing game??

```

"Come back here!"

Chasing after her, Snow Emperor bent down to grab Little Snow Maiden's arm, but at that moment, she realized that a slick layer of ice had suddenly appeared beneath her feet. Meanwhile, seizing the opportunity when Snow Emperor slipped, Little Snow Maiden flung her arm, tossing Snow Emperor towards Lin Yi.

This series of actions was executed so fluidly, as if they had been rehearsed several times before.

Only Snow Emperor knew for certain that this was the little one's impromptu plan!

In truth, with her capabilities, she could have easily regained her composure and controlled her body, but the little one was gripping so tightly, with such force, that Snow Emperor was afraid she might inadvertently hurt her if she resisted.

A second later, Little Snow Maiden had achieved her goal.

Snow Emperor's body heavily collided with Lin Yi's, and whether out of instinct or some other reason, she even wrapped her arms around Lin Yi's neck, with their faces extremely close together.

Little Snow Maiden didn't stand firm either and plopped down onto the ground, but this did not dampen the excitement brimming in her heart at all.

"Mom and dad are so affectionate, hugging and cuddling even in such a serious moment of attack, completely disregarding the gazes of so many people."

Lin Yi turned his head to look at her, his expressionless face conveying a warning or a reminder, "Don't forget, you're just a baby who was born yesterday."

Little Snow Maiden feigned innocence while biting her finger, "But my mom said I was born smarter than other kids, I listen to my mom."

"Is that so?"

Lin Yi looked towards Snow Emperor, the warm breath from his mouth forming small droplets of water on Snow Emperor's fair and smooth cheek.

Snow Emperor did not answer Lin Yi's question, instead she began to speak on her own,

"Senior Lin Yi is the first person to get so close to me without freezing."

She stared dumbfounded at Lin Yi, as if truly moved, not even letting go of her arms around him.

Although Lin Yi's body did not freeze over, he could still feel the cold emanating from Snow Emperor. What surprised him was that Snow Emperor's body was not as rigid as he had imagined.

Honestly, in his mind, the sisters from the far northern lands should have been like two old icy poles, cold and hard, but Snow Emperor's body was unexpectedly soft.

The descriptors soft and cold were hard to associate with each other, especially considering the two... right in front of him. At this moment, his train of thought abruptly stopped.

Looking up, Lin Yi noticed another gaze watching them coldly from the side.

Gu Yuena had appeared on stage at some point, standing expressionless about a meter away from Lin Yi.

Seeing Snow Emperor still hugging Lin Yi and daydreaming, Gu Yuena approached with an unhappy expression, unpried Snow Emperor's hands, and pulled her up.

Her tone was chill as she said, "Is hugging him that comfortable? Don't delay our attack, okay?"

Snow Emperor quickly apologized, "I'm sorry! I just lost my balance!"

Gu Yuena laughed out of irritation, "A seventy-thousand-year-old ferocious beast losing balance? Who would believe that if you said it?"

Snow Emperor glanced at Little Snow Maiden, and with a boost of morale from somewhere, couldn't help but retort, "The fact is just that, why can't a ferocious beast have the possibility of falling over?"

Her mother's boldness took Little Snow Maiden by surprise.

Gu Yuena momentarily didn't know how to retort, her chest heaving as she turned to Lin Yi, furious. Suddenly, with a feint, she twisted her foot to one side and her body fell towards Lin Yi.

Snow Emperor was stunned.

She saw Gu Yuena also kneeling on the ground hugging Lin Yi, not forgetting to turn her head towards Snow Emperor and say, "Huh, point taken, I also 'accidentally' fell over..."
