Return

At the place where the Ice Empress originally stood, there was only a blood-red soul ring with three golden patterns left.

Tian Meng nodded, looking excited. They were going to created a better monster! When Huo Yuhao woke up again, he found that the wounds on his body had healed.

Looking at the crystal-like jade-like skin, Huo Yuhao let out a long breath. It was so difficult!

"Don't need look at it. You have indeed become handsome again."

Snow Empress, who had been standing by, looked at Huo Yuhao casually and gave her evaluation. Huo Yuhao felt a little embarrassed, but this could not hide his smile at all. As the tattoo of the Ice Jade Scorpion Empress appeared on his back, a wild aura was instantly released, and a red soul rings with four golden patterns under his feet slowly rose. The hands are also covered with a layer of fine diamond-like particles, making the entire arm sparkle.

"By the way, how many days has pass by while I was in my absorption?" Huo Yuhao finally remembered.

"It only took half a day. The spiritual power of the God King Realm is really amazing. Congratulations, Yuhao, we succeeded!"

Tian Meng also ran out, very excited.

"What should we do next? Should we go directly to Xiao Bai to add the second soul ring?" Tian Meng looked at Snow Empress and asked.

Snow Empress thought for a moment and shook his head. "Leave the location of the second soul ring to me, and I still need time to find the 100,000-year-old Snow Lotus from the previous life."

"Oh? Is that the one you used to reincarnate as a human in the previous life?"

Snow Empress nodded and looked at Huo Yuhao.

"With the Snow Lotus and the help of Tian Meng's origin, when I become a Spirit Soul, I should be able to provide you with three soul rings and one soul bone."

"But in your previous life, you brought Yuhao four soul rings. It seems that there is not much difference?" Tian Meng asked with doubts in his heart.

Snow Empress explained calmly.

"It's different. In the previous life, I didn't realize it yet and instinctively wanted more space. This time, I can actively gather my own strength, plus your origin and the 100,000-year-old Snow Lotus. The result is naturally that each soul ring can bring two skills."

"???" Tian Meng and Huo Yuhao were both stunned. You know, the Snow Empress in the previous life only brought four soul skills and occupied four soul rings.

"Not only that, the three skills of [Empress's Palm], [Empress's Sword], and [Snowy Dance of Ultimate Ice] in my previous life can be perfected with only one soul ring under my conscious concentration. Although there is still some gap compared with Tian Meng's one-ring four-soul skills, how about it, Dad, are you satisfied?" (TN: I shorten the skill name and remove the initial of the first two soul skill lol. It would kill me if I have to write the full name every time😅. For context it [Gentleness Amidst Warmth, Snowless Glacier, Empress's Palm] and [Unparalleled Chill, Empress's Sword]) 

At the end of her speech, Snow Empress looked at Huo Yuhao playfully. Huo Yuhao nodded woodenly, feeling dizzy as if he had picked up a million-year soul ring on the road. That's right, the Snow Empress could give Huo Yuhao seven skills, plus the soul bones, that's nine in total!

"This..." Tian Meng didn't know what to say. After a long time, he patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder.

"Yuhao, you got really rich this time."

"Don't be happy too soon. Remember to start adding from the second spirit ring to get the effect I mentioned. Otherwise, when you reach level 30, my energy will not be able to support you with three soul rings." Snow Empress patted Huo Yuhao's forehead and brought him back to his senses.

"Okay, don't keep your girlfriend waiting any longer, it's time to take her back to meet your parent."

Huo Yuhao's cheeks turned slightly red and he nodded. He had been here for four days and it was time to go back. He looked at Snow Empress.

"Then I'll go back. I will cultivate to Soul Ancestor as soon as possible, and then come to find you."

"Okay, Xiao Bai and I will wait for you here. By the way, take this with you." Snow Empress nodded gently and handed the object in her hand to Huo Yuhao.

"This is?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the thing in his hand. It was an ice sculpture that looked exactly like the Snow Empress. Her extraordinary temperament, posture and expression were lifelike.

"The Thousand Years Manifold Mysterious Ice Essence contains a wisp of my spiritual consciousness, similar to the reversal scale that Di Tian gave you in your previous life. If you carry it with you, I will be able to sense your location and help deter danger when you encounter them."

Snow Empress paused and continued.

"Of course, if you can run, then run. This technique is more effective against soul beasts, but it is unlikely to work on humans."

Huo Yuhao nodded, put it into his bracelet, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Snow Empress."

Snow Empress smiled, gave Huo Yuhao a hug, and whispered in his ear, "Have a safe journey." (TN: ;) wink wink)

...

A man in armor yawned and looked at the endless white outside the city gate with a lack of interest. He is the guard of this town and it is his turn to guard the city gate today.

He looked around and sighed, "Little girl, that person probably won't come back. I've never heard of anyone who can stay in the human restricted area for so many days. You'd better not wait."

Looking next to him, there stood a tightly wrapped girl with a bunch of scorpion braids sticking out from the side of her hood, hanging down to her waist. The brim of the hat is very low, and occasionally you can see the girl's delicate little face when she looks up. It is chubby and very cute, making people want to pinch it.

As early as a few days ago, the guards noticed this girl. She came to the city gate every day without fail, doing nothing but looking at the white snow in the distance. There were also guards who came forward to ask if she needed help. Later, everyone knew that there was a little girl waiting for a person at the city gate every day.

The girl did not listen to the guard's advice, but shook her head gently. Her eyes under the brim of her hat were focused on the white in the distance, fearing that she would not see the approaching figure at the first time.

"He will come back, he promised me."

"Well.."

The guard shook his head and leaned lazily against the wall. It had been snowing heavily these days and no one would choose to travel in such weather. Not even one person might enter the city in a day. The sky gradually darkened and night fell. The heavy snow that had lasted for several days stopped surprisingly. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the snow on the ground reflected a light blue light.

Xiao Wu clenched her fists and lowered her head silently, with some frustration in her eyes. It had been five days, five days since Huo Yuhao left.

"What is that?" the guard's voice sounded.

Xiao Wu suddenly looked up and vaguely saw a figure flashing in the distance. Fortunately, the snow stopped and the view became wider, otherwise the guards would not have noticed this sudden change. Before the guard could say anything, the figure beside him shot out like an arrow.

The oncoming wind blew away the hood on her head, revealing her delicate face. Her scorpion braids were untied and flew in the night sky. The rabbit ears on the head showed that the speed had been pushed to the extreme. Crystal clear crystals fell on the snow along the way. They were tears of longing. Huo Yuhao looked at the figure running towards him and waved with a smile.

As the distance got closer, his expression turned into astonishment. Xiao Wu did not slow down at all! The two finally collided with each other. It was not quite appropriate to say that they collided. Xiao Wu hugged Huo Yuhao's waist, and the huge inertia threw him to the snow. Lying on the snow, Huo Yuhao looked at the stars in the sky and began to doubt his life. He lowered his head and saw Xiao Wu looking up at him with tears in her eyes.

I touched the chubby little face and whispered, "I'm back."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's face turned bitter and she buried her head in Huo Yuhao's chest. The twitching shoulders and slight whimpering made Huo Yuhao scratch his head. Why are you crying again? Feeling a little helpless, he could only put his hand on Xiao Wu's head and stroked it gently.

"I'm back now, when have I ever lied to you?"

"Can't you just hurry up? You made me wait so long."

Xiao Wu's voice mixed with crying came intermittently, and the force coming from the waist became stronger. When Xiao Wu's crying gradually subsided, Huo Yuhao said, "Let's go back to the city. It's cold outside."

Seeing Xiao Wu nod in his arms, Huo Yuhao suddenly jumped up. Amid Xiao Wu's exclamation, the two changed their posture to a princess hug, smiling.

"Boss, do you want to be hugged or carried on your back?"

Xiao Wu blushed a little and whispered, "If you hold me, you will see my tearful face. I want you to carry me on your back!"

"Yes, sir."

After putting Xiao Wu down, Huo Yuhao walked to the front, squatted down, and patted himself on the back. Xiao Wu raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and suddenly lay on Huo Yuhao's back and shouted.

"Set off!"

"Let's go!"

Huo Yuhao walked towards the town, their shadows imprinted on the silver-white snow piles, as beautiful as a painting.

"Why do I feel like Yuhao suddenly comes to his senses! Bingbing! Let's do it too, do you want me to hold you or carry you on my back?" Tian Meng yelled in the spiritual sea.

"Get out!" The clear voice of Ice Empress came, short and concise.

"Okay."
