Chapter 152 Snow Emperor, Submit!_1
No one needed to introduce her; Qin Xiao already knew who the woman before him was.
Snow Emperor!
It was the one who wielded the Emperor Sword, Emperor Cold Heaven, the Snow Emperor.
"I've said it before, I will kill all humans!"
The Snow Emperor's gaze was ice-cold as she looked at Qin Xiao as though he was already a dead man.
She slowly raised her hand, and cold air condensed into a transparent longsword, pointed directly at Qin Xiao from afar.
However.
Qin Xiao remained calm.
After all, the Snow Emperor couldn't harm him, so what was there to be afraid of?
"Snow Lady, Snow Lady, is it really you!?"
"Listen to me, don't be impulsive, alright?"
Just then, Ice Emperor called out urgently.
A look of surprise emerged on the Snow Emperor's face, and the raised icicle longsword did not fall as expected.
"Bing'er, is that you?"
The Snow Emperor was silent for a moment before she started to ask cautiously.
She stared blankly at Qin Xiao, uncertain.
"It's me, without a doubt!"
The response from Ice Emperor was affirmative, "Snow Lady, listen to me, don't be rash. And definitely don't think about detonating your core essence. I'll find a way to get out and see you as soon as I can."
The Ice Emperor could sense that the Snow Emperor's body was like a volcano on the verge of eruption, the culmination of her hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation.
She was planning a do-or-die struggle.
But that was to be expected.
As a Soul Beast Overlord, they were proud creatures with their own dignity and boundaries. In their eyes, humans were nothing more than despicable, shameless ants.
If she were to fall into the hands of humans, it would be an extreme insult to herself, and she couldn't tolerate becoming a human's Soul Ring or Soul Bone. Not just the Snow Emperor, even Ice Emperor herself would do the same if she encountered such a desperate situation.
Better to be a shattered jade than an intact tile.
"How can I not be impulsive?"
The Snow Emperor said tragically, "I don't even have my physical body anymore, just some essential power remaining. Because I have no physical body, I'm like rootless water. Over time, my core power will dissipate sooner or later...
Rather than waiting to die, I'd rather fight those damned humans fiercely. Killing one would settle the score, killing two would gain me one, the more I kill, the less I lose.
I want to let these damned humans know the dignity of the kings of the far northern lands is not to be trampled upon. Even the mightiest among humans must pay the price!"
The Snow Emperor, who had barely calmed down, became agitated again with these words.
"Wait! Snow Lady!"
At this moment, Ice Emperor also projected a phantom figure from within Qin Xiao's Spirit Sea, appearing in the outside world.
Her situation was similar to that of the Snow Emperor, both being condensed from spiritual power.
She instantly stood between Qin Xiao and the Snow Emperor.
Looking at the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion condensed from spiritual power, the Snow Emperor slowly lowered her hand.
"Bing'er, who would have thought that when we would meet again, we would both be in such a half-dead state..."
Her voice was filled with melancholy.
Indeed.
The two great kings of the far northern lands, reduced to such a wretched state, it truly was a sorry sight.
Ice Emperor didn't care about all that, asking anxiously instead, "Snow Lady, what exactly happened? How did you become a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast Embryo? No wonder that when I first saw that Divine Seal Altar at some auction, I felt something familiar; it turns out it was you sealed within."
With a sigh, Snow Emperor said, "Aren't we in the same boat? If I remember correctly, you should have been facing another bottleneck these years. Before I chose to reincarnate as a human, I looked for you, hoping to help you out. But you had already disappeared, and not even your clan knew where you had gone."
Ice Emperor gave a wry smile and said, "Even if you had helped me, I wouldn't have been able to break through to become a four-hundred-thousand-year soul beast.
The potential of my body had reached its limit; external help would no longer be of much use.
So... I had to find another way to survive..."
"So this is what you called, finding another way?"
The Snow Emperor's gaze fell upon Qin Xiao, filled with scrutinizing intent.
This human, seemed utterly unremarkable to her...
Well...
Okay.
There was also some mystery.
But she still didn't understand why the Snow Emperor had chosen him.
"Snow Lady, I am very fortunate to have been favored by our lord, to be given a chance to exert my strength. Join us,
and let us together fulfill our lord's plans, and grow stronger together!"
The Ice Emperor looked at Qin Xiao with eyes brimming with devotion.
Her recent experiences had truly led her to heartfelt submission.
The supreme heights of the Divine Realm, that was a state of being she had never even dreamed of in her life.
Holding onto such a powerful patron, could she still worry about not being able to reshape her form?
"Bing'er, are you residing in this human's body? Why would you stoop so low, what exactly happened?"
The Ice Emperor was extremely proud, in her view, the Ice Emperor should never submit to anyone in her life.
But now...
In front of Qin Xiao, the Ice Emperor lowered her status greatly, which made her wonder what qualities this young human possessed.
The Snow Emperor frowned slightly, "You call him your lord? What abilities does he have that make you so convinced?"
"Bing'er, you must know that not a single one of those humans is good. If it had not been for those damned humans, I wouldn't have ended up like this.""
"Snow Lady, trust my judgment, it's definitely not wrong. Sometimes, what the eyes see is not the truth, and the lord is not as simple as you imagine...
If you trust me, then join us. Don't worry, I would never deceive you..."
The Ice Emperor entreated the Snow Emperor earnestly.
Qin Xiao also knew that at such a time he couldn't hold back and needed to exert his strength as well.
The next moment, he slowly reached out his finger, "You'll understand once you see for yourself."
The Ice Emperor hesitated.
As the ruler of the far northern lands, she had never been so close to a human before.
"Just try it, it's not like you're going to get pregnant."
"Who is spouting nonsense?"
The Snow Emperor's expression grew even colder.
"Ahem, Your Majesty the Snow Emperor, hello, do you remember me?" The somewhat embarrassed voice of the Skydream Ice Silkworm arose.
"Hmm?" The Snow Emperor was clearly taken aback for a moment, "There's a soul beast aura here? This aura feels familiar, an immense but not powerful spiritual force, what is it?" She obviously couldn't recall the Skydream Ice Silkworm.
The Ice Emperor said irritably, "It's that damn lucky ice silkworm that kept advancing in its sleep, breaking through one bottleneck after another, even surpassing us in overall Cultivation Level."
The Snow Emperor suddenly realized, "Oh, I remember now. Bing'er, I recall you once went to hunt it down. Didn't you say it disappeared? How come you're together now?"
Skydream chuckled, "Your Majesty the Snow Emperor, you sure worded that 'together' nicely!"
"Get lost. Shut your filthy mouth." The Ice Emperor roared in anger.
Skydream Ice Silkworm promptly shut his mouth sulkily.
When the world once again fell silent, the Ice Emperor slowly said, "Snow Lady, the truth is not what you imagine..."
She knew that the Snow Emperor, full of doubt and with a temper rising, couldn't be swayed by anyone. Only a clear explanation would do.
Then, she explained as simply as possible how she had encountered Qin Xiao and the Skydream Ice Silkworm and how she had become Qin Xiao's second Martial Soul.
"What?"
"Is that so?"
The emotions of the Snow Lady were obviously greatly stirred.
After hearing the whole story and understanding the priorities, she hadn't thought that the Ice Emperor, with three hundred and ninety-thousand years of Cultivation Level, and the Skydream Ice Silkworm with a million years, had both submitted to Qin Xiao?
