Chapter 171 Is the Snow Empress leaving?
Looking at the Titan Snow Demon King kneeling before her, the Snow Empress gently nodded to him, a gesture of acknowledgment and respect.
After all, Titan Snow Demon King was not only his chosen successor, but also one of the three great kings of the far north, so he still had to give him a certain amount of respect.
"Atai, it's been a long time." Xue Di's voice sounded particularly gentle in the cold wind.
When Titan Snow Demon King heard Snow Empress greet him, an indescribable excitement welled up in his heart: "Yes! Snow Empress, it's been a long time." His voice trembled slightly, an experience he had never had before.
Ever since the last time the Titan Snow Demon King expressed his love to the Snow Empress, only to be severely rejected and beaten by her, the Titan Snow Demon King has never received a positive response from the Snow Empress again.
Titan Snow Demon King is still afraid when he thinks about that beating. He was beaten so badly that all the bones in his body were broken. It took him ten thousand years to recover his peak strength. Since then, Snow Emperor has always avoided him and even treated him coldly in the court.
Titan Snow Demon King once thought he had lost Snow Empress's favor forever, but today, Snow Empress actually took the initiative to greet him, which made him feel extremely surprised and confused.
He couldn't help but wonder if it was because he had become more handsome recently. But that shouldn't be the case. Xue Di shouldn't be someone who cares about looks. After all, if Xue Di were really into appearances, she would definitely like him given his good looks.
After all, the Titan Snow Demon King considered himself the most handsome being in his Titan Snow Demon clan, and he had previously "friendly" asked the other soul beasts...
Is he the most handsome soul beast in the far north? Almost all soul beasts think they are the most handsome, so if the Snow Empress really is a looks-obsessed person, how could she have rejected him back then?
However, before Titan Snow Demon King could sort out his thoughts, his attention was drawn to Ice Empress beside him. It wasn't that Titan Snow Demon King had fallen for Ice Empress, but rather that Ice Empress's condition was very strange at the moment.
As one of the three great kings of the far north, Titan Snow Demon King keenly sensed Ice Empress's unusual behavior, but considering her presence, he dared not ask. He simply greeted Ice Empress, attempting to express his concern in this way. Ice Empress nodded back to Titan Snow Demon King, but her expression remained indifferent, and she did not utter a single word.
After all, it was the Snow Empress's time to hold court, and all matters should be decided by her. Although the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress had a very good personal relationship, the rules of the court could not be broken. Titan Snow Demon King was well aware of this, so he chose to remain silent and await the Snow Empress's instructions.
Xue Di gracefully and calmly raised her hand, every detail revealing her noble bearing. Her voice was gentle yet authoritative: "Atai, get up."
"Yes, Snow Empress." Titan Snow Demon King responded respectfully, his voice filled with reverence and obedience to the Snow Empress.
He quickly stood up from the ground, and the moment the Titan Snow Demon King stood up, it seemed as if the entire far north trembled.
The large group of Titan Snow Demons he brought also raised their heads from their prostrate positions, their eyes gleaming with awe for the Snow Empress and pride in the Titan Snow Demon King. Although they remained kneeling on the ground, a hint of arrogance involuntarily appeared on their faces when they surveyed the surrounding horde of soul beasts.
"Look, this is our leader, the one who can stand beside the Snow Empress," one of the Titan Snow Demons whispered to his companion, his voice filled with envy and admiration.
Then, Snow Empress gracefully beckoned to Titan Snow Demon King, her movements light and charming: "Atai, come sit next to me."
"Okay, okay, I'm coming right away." The Titan Snow Demon King was somewhat surprised by the Snow Emperor's words, but a joyful smile immediately spread across his face. He quickly walked towards the Snow Emperor, each step filled with delight. Now, the group of Titan Snow Demons appeared even more proud, their eyes filled with worship for the Titan Snow Demon King and loyalty to the Snow Emperor.
Just as the Titan Snow Demon ran over, a look of disdain flashed across Xiao Bai's face. His eyes held a hint of provocation, as if he were silently challenging the authority of the Titan Snow Demon King.
It seems that Xiaobai and Titan Snow Demon King have never had a harmonious relationship. They are both powerful figures from the far north, with equal strength, but Xiaobai is more arrogant.
The Snow Empress, not wanting Xiaobai to be too competitive, made Titan Snow Demon King one of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North. If a battle were to break out between them one day, it's truly hard to say who would emerge victorious.
Having received permission from the Snow Queen, the Titan Snow Demon King eagerly took large strides and quickly ran to her side. He not only approached the Snow Queen but also made a point of running to the side of the Ice Bear King, Little White.
The Titan Snow Demon King's massive body left deep footprints in the snow, each step accompanied by a slight tremor in the ground. His enormous figure cast a shadow in the sunlight, covering the area where Little White stood, making the Ice Bear King, who was already smaller than the Titan Snow Demon King, appear even more insignificant at this moment.
The moment the Titan Snow Demon King sat down, his massive body pressed tightly against Little White. The two jostled each other, as if engaged in a silent contest.
Between their bodies, due to the immense pressure, a glacial fissure actually appeared. This fissure continued to spread.
Eventually, the glacier crevasse reached Huo Yuhao's feet. Seeing the glacier crevasse right in front of them, the two sisters, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, immediately dodged to the side. Huo Yuhao quickly led the two sisters away from the crevasse area to avoid being swallowed by it.
Huo Yuhao: "Give me peanuts, feed me peanuts."
Moreover, it wasn't just the Titan Snow Demon King and the Ice Bear King Little White who were secretly competing; even the Titan Snow Demons and Ice Bear Kings they brought with them started to secretly squeeze each other.
Both races are behemoths of the far north, and naturally neither is willing to submit to the other. Although there are no overt conflicts between them, their competition is rife with undercurrents and a tense atmosphere.
The Titan Snow Demons jostled each other with their massive bodies, while the Ice Bear Kings carved lines into the ice with their sharp claws, as if declaring their territory.
Noticing the Titan Snow Demon King and Little White vying for supremacy on the side, the Snow Empress immediately gave them both stern glares.
Sensing the gaze from the Snow Empress, the two immediately shrugged, like two schoolchildren caught doing something wrong, burying their faces in their hands in shame. They knew the Snow Empress's authority and dared not act recklessly again. The Snow Empress's majesty was like the biting, chilling winds of the far north, compelling all living beings to bow in submission.
The Ice Bear Clan and Titan Snow Demon Clan below immediately cowered on the ground, trembling with fear. Their awe of the Snow Empress was palpable, and they dared not disobey in the slightest. These spirit beasts knew that in the far north, the Snow Empress's authority was unchallenged. Their struggles seemed so insignificant before the Snow Empress, like a children's game easily quelled.
It must be said that in the far north, the Snow Empress's authority is incredibly powerful. Whether it's the Ice Bear Soil or the Titan Snow Demon Soil, they have already reached the very top of the food chain, beings revered by countless soul beasts. However, before the Snow Empress, they dare not be disrespectful in the slightest, completely obeying her as if she were a god in their hearts. The Snow Empress's existence is like that of a guardian deity of the far north.
Every command she gave, every glance she gave, could make these powerful soul beasts bow down in submission.
If these two powerful races were like this, the other soul beast groups were even more so. With the Snow Empress here, she was the true ruler. Every command, every glance from her commanded these powerful soul beasts to submit. Her presence was like that of a guardian deity of the far north, maintaining order and peace. Under her rule, every corner of the far north was filled with harmony and tranquility, and no soul beast dared to challenge her authority. The Snow Empress's majesty was like the biting, chilling winds of the far north, compelling all living beings to bow in submission.
Looking down at the group of soul beasts that were completely obedient to the Snow Empress, Huo Yuhao thought to himself that, apart from Gu Yuena, the strength of the far north was almost on par with that of the Star Dou Great Forest.
First of all, the Snow Empress, who is 700,000 years old, is already able to completely restrain the Beast God Emperor Tian. After all, the Snow Empress's Three Absolute Techniques are terrifying, almost like divine skills.
After breaking through the forty-year mark, Hyotei possessed strength comparable to Xiong Jun. Hyotei's Ice Emperor Domain could seal Xiong Jun's violent power within frost, making it difficult for him to unleash his full strength.
Titan Snow Demon King and Little White, after breaking through to 300,000 years, can completely restrain Purple Princess and Red King.
However, this also means that the Demon King will be unrestrained. With his immense strength, he is a huge variable. Moreover, he has the strongest support, Bi Ji. Therefore, in terms of top-tier combat power, the Far North is already slightly inferior.
Next, let's talk about the 100,000-year-old soul beasts, which are at the high end of the battle. Due to the special influence of the Ice God's power, the number of 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Far North far exceeds that of the Star Dou Great Forest. These powerful soul beasts have been greatly enhanced in strength under the nourishment of the Ice God's power, becoming an undeniable force in the Far North. Therefore, the high-end battle strength of the Far North is higher than that of the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, despite the large number of 100,000-year-old soul beasts, the number of 10,000-year-old soul beasts in the far north still cannot compare to that in the Star Dou Great Forest. After all, the Star Dou Great Forest has a much stronger foundation than the far north, so its number of 10,000-year-old soul beasts is naturally much greater.
Therefore, although the far north has reached a level that can rival the Star Dou Great Forest in some aspects, it still seems somewhat powerless to truly surpass the Star Dou Great Forest in terms of overall strength.
Just as Huo Yuhao was lost in thought, Xue Di had already started the meeting: "Alright, now that everyone is here, I declare the meeting officially open!" Xue Di's voice was clear and powerful, carrying an unquestionable authority.
Upon hearing Xue Di's speech, all the soul beasts present erupted in excitement, their roars echoing through the sky. The shockwaves caused by the combined cries of the beasts shattered the clouds in the sky.
Many spirit beasts danced and gesticulated with excitement, as if they had been given stimulants. Some even stood upright, supporting their bodies on their hind legs, waving their forelimbs in the air. Their tails swayed, and their eyes gleamed with excitement.
If an unsuspecting human soul master were to stumble upon this scene, he would probably think he had entered a Satan summoning ritual.
Looking at the surging beasts, Xue Di smiled slightly, then gently raised her right hand. In an instant, the previously surging soul beasts became as quiet as sheep.
The Snow Empress then slowly began to speak: "Recently, everyone has probably sensed the changes that have occurred in the far north. A very powerful force has entered the far north, causing everyone's strength to increase by leaps and bounds."
Upon hearing Xue Di's words, all the spirit beasts smiled, and some even puffed out their chests proudly.
"These are the first things I want to tell you all. With the help of this power, my cultivation has also made a breakthrough. Now, I have broken through to 700,000 years!" The Snow Emperor's voice echoed in the sky above the far north ice plains, every word filled with power and majesty.
Upon hearing Xue Di's words, the scene erupted in cheers once more. Many spirit beasts wept with joy, raising their hands and jumping rhythmically in celebration. They seemed to see a glimmer of hope and felt an unprecedented surge of power. Their hearts were filled with excitement and joy.
It was as if the entire far north ice plain was cheering for the Snow Emperor's breakthrough.
Seeing the dancing spirit beasts around them, not only the Snow Empress, but also Huo Yuhao and the Ice Empress couldn't help but smile. They knew that...
The joy of these spirit beasts was entirely heartfelt. They were proud of the Snow Empress's breakthrough and excited about the future of the Arctic Ice Plains.
After all, to them, the Snow Empress was the guardian deity of the entire far north ice plains! Their guardian deity had broken through to the seventy-year level.
This means that the power of the far north is growing stronger. They believe that under the leadership of the Snow Emperor, the far north will become even more prosperous and powerful.
However, at this moment, the Snow Emperor's voice rang out again: "And, secondly, I am preparing to abdicate the throne of the Lord of the Far North. However, in the next few years, I will settle everything in the Far North, and then I will leave the Far North." The Snow Emperor's words carried a hint of determination, as well as a hint of reluctance.
After the Snow Empress finished speaking, the previously cheering group of spirit beasts fell into a deathly silence. They couldn't believe their ears. The Snow Empress was actually leaving the Far North! How could this be! Their hearts were filled with doubt and unease. They didn't know what the Far North would become without the Snow Empress.
Even the Titan Snow Demon King, sitting next to the Snow Empress, stared wide-eyed in disbelief. What had he heard? The Snow Empress was actually leaving the Far North! How could that be? He was filled with shock and confusion. He didn't know why the Snow Empress would make such a decision. Her cultivation had already broken through the 700,000 mark, and she could rule the entire Far North for 100,000 years. Why would she choose to leave?
