Snow Emperor hesitated after hearing Qin Xiao's answer.
It didn't seem as unbearable as she had imagined.
Helping each other was a form of cooperation, and it didn't undermine the dignity of her being the ruler of the far northern lands.
"Snow Lady, please stay, I beg you," Ice Emperor approached Snow Emperor, his long scorpion tail gently caressing her slender thigh.
"Yes, stay," Skydream Ice Silkworm chimed in naturally, but before he could get close to Snow Lady, he was sent flying by a swipe of the Ice Emperor's Claw.
Snow Emperor's gaze turned to Qin Xiao, her ice-blue eyes revealing complex emotions.
Qin Xiao suddenly waved his hand, and a large crack appeared in the spiritual world, revealing the ice-bound room to Snow Emperor once again.
"Forced fruit quenches thirst true, but I'm not that thirsty. The door to the spiritual world is open for you. If you don't want to stay, you can leave directly. I won't stop you."
After he finished speaking, he reclined casually on his throne, lightly tapping the armrest with his hand, producing a 'thud thud thud' sound.
A struggle flashed in Snow Emperor's eyes.
She hesitated.
After a long while, she finally made a difficult decision in her heart.
"I'm willing to stay!"
"Snow Lady, that's great, we can be together again."
Ice Emperor was overjoyed.
"Thud..."
Qin Xiao stopped tapping the armrest and sat up straight.
"I'm pleased that you've made this decision."
"Now relax your body. My power will enter your body and help stabilize the restless power of your origin."
After listening to Qin Xiao, Snow Emperor slightly pursed her lips.
After all, she had never been in close contact with a human before.
It still felt very unnatural.
"Don't be nervous, everyone has a first time. After the first time, it won't feel so repulsive," said Ice Emperor in a low voice, trying to comfort the Snow Emperor.
Snow Emperor nodded slightly, feeling that Ice Emperor made a lot of sense.
However, she couldn't help asking, "Will it... hurt?"
Qin Xiao shook his head slightly, "I'll be gentle, it won't hurt."
Hearing this, Snow Emperor closed her eyes and spread her arms, having overcome the resistance in her heart.
Qin Xiao waved his hand, and streams of black energy flew out from it, instantly disappearing into Snow Emperor's body.
"The power from before, it was terrifying..."
"I felt like even passing by it gave me shivers," said Skydream Ice Silkworm, still shaken.
Ice Emperor offered a retort without any niceties, "You're bald, when did you grow hair?"
Skydream Ice Silkworm twisted his plump body awkwardly, "I was just using a figure of speech... I think it's fitting."
"Hmph, no more talking," Ice Emperor huffed.
In reality, she also felt nervous when Qin Xiao unleashed the destructive power.
But her pride wouldn't allow her to show it.
At that moment,
After Qin Xiao infused the destructive power into Ice Emperor's body, he also propped up his chin, adopting a spectator's stance.
What needed to be done was done; now it was time to wait and see what unfolds.
Quickly,
A change occurred in Snow Emperor's expression; her eyebrows gradually furrowed together, seemingly in pain.
"My Lord, didn't you say it wouldn't be painful?" Ice Emperor mustered the courage to ask Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao replied indifferently, "Some things have to be this way. If you tell her it will hurt, she will instinctively resist cooperation. Only once it's started, she can only endure it.
Besides, you said it yourself, the first time is always like this... Moreover, what matter doesn't involve some sacrifice?"
Ice Emperor: "..."
She was temporarily at a loss for words.
But what Qin Xiao said made sense.
"Little scorpion, Qin Xiao isn't wrong. Your sister did suffer a bit, but her physical condition has stabilized a lot," said Snow Emperor.
Electrolux gave a faint smile to the tense Ice Emperor.
Upon hearing this, the Ice Emperor once again turned her gaze to the Snow Emperor, quietly sensing.
Don't say it.
It was indeed the case.
Previously, the Ice Emperor's body was like a volcano about to erupt, even she couldn't control it, and no one could tell when it would cause a huge explosion, harming both herself and those around her.
But now, the Ice Emperor could clearly feel that the volcano had become calm...
"This..."
The Ice Emperor was somewhat startled and at a loss for words.
The Snow Emperor had endured some pain, but the benefits were enormous.
At the very least, the hidden dangers in her body were being addressed.
And after a while, the Ice Emperor also noticed that the Snow Emperor's tightly furrowed eyebrows were slowly relaxing, and she seemed to be no longer in as much pain as before.
Suddenly.
A burst of icy chill emanated from the Snow Emperor's body, and streams of white energy swirled around her.
Soon, no one could see the Snow Emperor's figure anymore.
"What is happening now?"
The Ice Emperor was flabbergasted.
Qin Xiao said, "It should be almost over, let's just wait and see."
His words, like a soothing pill, were reassuring.
Time ticked away, second by second.
In the spirit world, no one felt the passage of time.
But the Ice Emperor had been silently counting her breaths.
About fifty breaths later, cracks appeared along with a series of crackling sounds.
The Snow Emperor had been encased in a snowball, which now shattered.
A small girl, carved like jade, appeared before everyone.
And this little girl had a pair of eyes black as ink.
"This is..."
The Ice Emperor, the Skydream Ice Silkworm, and Electrolux were all somewhat taken aback.
"She is the Snow Emperor," Qin Xiao said with a slight smile from his throne.
"What? The Snow Emperor?"
The others were shocked.
They really didn't know what to say.
"Meow just for now Snow Lady, Bing'er, what's wrong with you..."
"Eh, meow aise changed into this shape?"
The Snow Lady was also perplexed.
"Cough cough, maybe I sealed it a bit too harshly, leaving you with hardly any power..."
Qin Xiao coughed somewhat awkwardly.
He had intended to turn the Snow Emperor into a young girl, but unexpectedly, she became a loli.
But that wasn't so bad, right?
Of course.
Perhaps he was the only one who thought so.
The heart of the Ice Emperor was shattered.
Bring back my Snow Lady...
"Wuu wuu..."
"Give me back my power, or I'll fight you."
The Snow Lady charged at Qin Xiao, teeth bared and claws outstretched.
But she was quickly caught by the Ice Emperor, "Snow Lady, don't be impulsive, I've been meaning to ask you, with your cultivation level approaching seven hundred thousand years, by all accounts, you shouldn't have been able to transform into a human again! Once it's over a hundred thousand years, the power within us can't be restrained by self-sealing, and even if we wanted to abandon our power, we couldn't. How could you have successfully transformed back into a human?"
She was afraid that Snow Lady would get the short end of the stick and hurriedly changed the subject.
The Snow Emperor said, "It's because I encountered a Snow Lotus that was over a hundred thousand years old. Snow Lotuses are hardly ever sentient, but they have pure heavenly and earthy essences. Using that Snow Lotus as a connection, I eventually managed to seal my own origins, and that's how I began to retransform into a human. Who knew I would be so unlucky to encounter a human who ventured into the core of our far northern lands, and he ended up sealing me in that accursed Divine Seal Altar."
The Ice Emperor suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. No wonder you could choose this path, but it's a pity it was disrupted..."
