"Bingbing, I have always known your feelings, but it's impossible for me. The one I like is a man," the Snow Emperor sighed. After all these years, she wasn't foolish—she knew very well the feelings the God of Ice had for her.
But she was different from the God of Ice; she couldn't possibly be that way...
Moreover, she clearly understood that the God of Ice's affection for her was ultimately due to her formidable strength. The God of Ice had always admired her power, so over time, his feelings changed. Should he encounter another, even more powerful being, the God of Ice would likely return to normal.
"What is this?"
The Titan Xue Mo Wang and the Arctic Bear King were somewhat confused—the Snow Emperor and the God of Ice obviously had some issues.
The two of them, was that lace?
The Titan Xue Mo Wang finally understood why the God of Ice always looked at him unfavorably—it would be strange if he did.
Xu Ran, having experienced the shock of liberal thought in a past life, had an open mind about these matters and found nothing strange about it.
"Hehe, God of Ice, why don't you marry me just like Xue'er? Then you two could be together without separating. Otherwise, I'm going to take Xue'er away from the far northern lands in a couple of days," Xu Ran said to the God of Ice as if he were a creepy old man coaxing a little girl.
If you ignored the God of Ice's identity and strength and just looked at the appearance, the God of Ice was definitely a cute and beautiful little loli.
"I won't!"
"I hate you to death!"
The God of Ice stomped her foot and ran off somewhat sadly, just like a little girl.
This behavior from the God of Ice surprised both the Titan Xue Mo Wang and the Arctic Bear King.
But with the Snow Emperor already in Xu Ran's arms, nothing else could shock them more.
Everything they had encountered today, they were unlikely to forget for countless years to come.
"My Lord, we will take our leave first. If there is anything you need us to do, just let us know," said the Titan Xue Mo Wang and the Arctic Bear King before they left.
Nonsense, didn't they see that the Lord and the Snow Emperor were already in each other's arms?
To stay and be the third wheel would be asking for a beating, wouldn't it?
"Not bad, not bad, a teachable child," Xu Ran said with a smile. The ferocious beasts of The Far North were quite aware of the times. Compared to them, the ferocious beasts of the Deep Sea were not that smart.
"Xu Ran. What are you planning to do?" the Snow Emperor asked with bright eyes and white teeth, her long white hair flowing, wearing a white dress, looking pure and flawless. In fact, the Ice World Snow Lady and the Auspicious Beasts, like these ferocious beasts, were all favored by heaven.
The Snow Maiden was a creature formed from the purest ice attribute heaven earth origin energy. This is why the Snow Emperor had a natural affinity with the ice and snow energy of heaven and earth. It was also the reason that the God of Ice could never compare to the Snow Emperor.
"What do you think?"
"Even though I'm willing to be with you, I can't possibly be with you so soon," the Snow Emperor said, her face turning red. She was afraid that Xu Ran would be too direct, so...
"Intimacy between a man and a woman is a major affair in the world of mortals. What's there to be afraid of?"
Xu Ran pinched the Snow Emperor's little jade nose.
"But I'm not ready yet. Also, you must have some other purpose for coming to The Far North. I don't believe you came here just for me and Bingbing. Although the outside world calls you a lecher, I know you're an ambitious person." The Snow Empress's snowy eyes narrowed slightly, curious.
Even if she hoped that Xu Ran had come specifically for her, which would make her very happy.
But that was not the case.
"Besides coming for you, I have another matter. I possess a treasure created from the essence of myriad beasts' blood, known as the Myriad Beasts Armor, a divine object with extremely strong defensive powers. As long as it absorbs the blood essence of ferocious beasts, its defense will continuously become even more formidable. Therefore, my visit this time is to upgrade the Myriad Beasts Armor," Xu Ran explained.
"There's such a treasure?"
The Snow Empress was visibly surprised.
But in the next moment, Xu Ran summoned the Myriad Beasts Armor onto himself.
Xu Ran's appearance was already exceptionally handsome, and donning the black battle armor added a sense of unrivaled domineering presence.
Clothed in the black armor glinting with streaming light, the presence of the Ancestral Dragon, symbol of the Soul Beast Overlord, emanated from his body. At this moment, Xu Ran seemed like a dark sovereign from the endless ages.
Such a temperament made even the Snow Empress involuntarily moved.
In a faint and uncertain way, she seemed to see a handsome man, clad in black armor, wielding a long sword, bathing in the blood of his enemies, with many powerful beings dying at the mere swing of his sword.
"Is this the Myriad Beasts Armor? There indeed are many powerful auras of ferocious beasts on it, even Di Tian's blood essence," the Snow Empress remarked as her delicate fingers caressed Xu Ran's armor, especially when she touched the heart-protecting mirror—she immediately felt as if there was a terrifying spectacle of myriad beasts galloping within.
She had seen Di Tian more than once and was very familiar with his aura.
"That's right. Not only Di Tian but all the soul beasts of the Deep Sea have already submitted to me as well. I had previously sent Di Tian to consult with you, and then you sent him back," Xu Ran said with a smile.
"At that time, I didn't know you were so strong. I thought Di Tian was deliberately deceiving me! Our relationship with Di Tian in The Far North has not been good, and I only found out about you later," the Snow Empress said, slightly embarrassed.
The Snow Empress and Di Tian had once clashed over the Skydream Ice Silkworm.
After the Skydream Ice Silkworm was captured in the Aquipeia Forest, it had managed to escape once and then returned to The Far North. The Skydream Ice Silkworm naturally attracted any ferocious beast.
After all, obtaining the Skydream Ice Silkworm and devouring its flesh and blood would most likely ensure survival through the next heavenly tribulation.
"Leave this matter to me. I'll gather the ferocious beasts of The Far North. They won't dare not to submit to you," the Snow Empress nodded seriously.
"Apart from this matter, there's another thing. Tang San also seems to have arrived in The Far North. His strength is very formidable now, although slightly weaker than me, it's not by much. And it seems he's after the God of Ice in The Far North, is there really a legacy of the God of Ice here?" Xu Ran asked curiously.
"I don't know about that," the Snow Empress frowned.
"But the Skydream Ice Silkworm once had an opportunity, otherwise how could it, with such a humble bloodline, become a million-year soul beast? Maybe the place the Skydream Ice Silkworm visited was where the legacy of the God of Ice lies," the Snow Empress suddenly said.
"Hmm, I think so too. However, for now, I must first upgrade the Myriad Beasts Armor to a super divine weapon. As for Tang San, I don't have time to deal with him yet," Xu Ran spoke indifferently. Once the Myriad Beasts Armor becomes a super divine weapon, then he and Gu Yuena can ascend to the Divine Realm.
As long as he takes control of the Divine Realm and becomes the God of Domination, no matter how varied Tang San's tactics are, he could simply be smacked to death with a slap.
And it was only recently that he learned from the System Miss that if the Myriad Beasts Armor became a super divine weapon, the heart-protecting mirror would be equivalent to a small-sized space where living beings could also survive. This way, Xiaowu and the others hiding in the heart-protecting mirror of the Myriad Beasts Armor wouldn't have to worry about their safety anymore.
