Douluo V: Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's naivety, I tricked her into becoming my wife.

Since his granddaughter had spoken, Qian Daoliu naturally wouldn't undermine her.

Davis rubbed his face. "Okay! I believe you!"

"Then you can manage them." Ye Hua waved his hand, signaling the ice bears to step forward.

But then Davis saw that there were a large number of soul beasts behind the ice bear!

Arctic ferret, frigid snow eagle, Titan snow demon...

Davis was shaken to his core!

It seems that Ye Hua holds a transcendent position among soul beasts!

With the garrison situation resolved, the army began taking turns on duty.

The abyss could strike at any moment, so no one dared to let their guard down.

Taking turns on duty is a wise choice for preserving combat effectiveness in the face of a protracted war.

However, important figures like Ye Hua and Qian Renxue naturally do not need to be on duty.

To establish his public image and solidify his position as the crown prince, Davis actively participated in rotations.

The Soul Masters of Arctic Town and those around Ye Hua were assigned to the same camp.

Qian Renxue also mobilized several hundred elite troops to serve under his command.

Although Ye Hua's complexion remained normal, he was somewhat tired after maintaining the operation of the Blood Fiend for more than two hours.

After handing the things to Tie Xiong, he took Wang Qiu'er back to rest.

Wang Qiu'er didn't have a half-plane, so she desperately used the Golden Dragon Spear to devour the soul power, urgently needing to digest it.

The duty of guarding the area fell to other people.

Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Oscar, Viya, and a few soul beasts took on the responsibility of guarding the first round.

Their camp was located on a high slope to the northwest of the deep pit, offering a wide view and making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Shui Bing'er sat by the fire, her blue curly hair gently ruffled by the night breeze, holding a cup of hot ginger tea in her hands.

Shui Yue'er huddled in her sister's arms, only her eyes showing, watching the surrounding soul beasts warily.

Viya also placed the Three-Eyed Ice and Fire Gun across her knees. "They really won't pounce on us?"

“No,” Oscar shook his head. “You have to trust Teacher Ye.”

Seeing Oscar bring up Ye Hua, everyone felt slightly relieved.

"By the way, you came to the far north with Teacher Ye to obtain soul spirits. Have you decided what kind?" Oscar looked at Shui Bing'er.

Shui Bing'er shook her head. "I had made up my mind, but something happened in the far north forest, and my favorite soul beast may be gone."

“Oh,” Oscar said regretfully, “Me too, I want a soul beast with combat capabilities.”

"But there are very few soul beasts that can both match my martial soul and have combat power."

"With this kind of unexpected turn of events, it might be even harder to find a suitable candidate!"

Shui Bing'er sighed, "Let's take it one step at a time."

"If all else fails, I'll go to Sunset Forest!"

"Although there are few ice elemental spirit beasts there, we can still find some!"

“That’s true,” Oscar said, changing the subject when he saw the heavy atmosphere. He pulled Viya aside and said, “By the way, Viya, these two are also old friends.”

"We've faced off before in the Continental Elite Advanced Soul Master Tournament!"

"Especially Shui Bing'er, the captain of the Tianshui team, once teamed up with their vice captain Xue Wu to use a martial soul fusion technique that gave us a real headache!"

“That’s all in the past,” Shui Bing’er shrugged. “However, Xue Wu was sent out by the family for training.”

"My partner for my Spirit Fusion Skill has now changed to my sister."

"Huh?!" Oscar was stunned. "Can a Spirit Fusion Skill partner be changed?"

“Of course,” Shui Bing’er nodded. “Shui Yue’er and I are connected by blood and our hearts are in sync!”

"Even martial souls have similarities, so naturally they can also use martial soul fusion techniques!"

“That’s good,” Viya interjected. “Many martial soul fusion techniques disappear when the partner leaves.”

"For example, the masters in the Golden Triangle are a real counterexample."

Oscar's face twitched. "Viya, why are you bringing up idiots?"

Viya yawned, "Just kidding, it's just something to talk about after dinner anyway."

"I heard that fried Yu Xiaogang is being sold in the south, but I haven't tried it yet!"

"Then I'll bring it to you when I get back."

"Tsk!" Viya exclaimed, speechless. "Stubborn! Fried food is all about being crispy when it's fresh out of the fryer!"

"Then... I'll learn the skill and fry them for you right now?"

Viya turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him.

Shuiyue pressed her head tightly into her sister's arms, her shoulders trembling.

Even the composed Shui Bing'er almost couldn't hold it in.

“Overall,” Viya steered the conversation back on track, “it’s a good thing that you have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.”

"Even if Xiongxiong gets hungry in the middle of the night, he won't dare to mess with us."

"Hey!" Snowball gestured towards the Ice Bear next to him, "Those are all my fellow villagers, I can rely on them!"

Hearing this, Shuiyue peeked out from her sister's arms, "But...they're so big!"

"One slap and I'm flattened into a pancake!"

Shui Bing'er gently tapped her sister's forehead, "Don't talk nonsense. As long as we don't cause trouble, they won't attack us."

"I know..." Shui Yue'er muttered, shrinking back inside, "But soul beasts are really scary..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, discontented voices came from behind her.

"What's so scary about us soul beasts?"

"If you ask me, what's truly terrifying is you humans!"

Shuiyue was so frightened that her fur stood on end!

Chapter 277 Ice Phoenix Parrot, Night Raid Probe

Everyone turned their heads sharply, their eyes scanning behind them warily.

The firelight illuminated a gray rock, on which perched a parrot the size of a palm.

Its body was a mixture of gray and white, its feathers were fluffy, and its eyes, the size of mung beans, were staring at them intently.

"Who! Who's speaking!" Shui Yue'er's voice was still trembling.

“I,” the parrot shook its wings, its tone tinged with displeasure, “look closely, a living bird, not a ghost.”

Shui Yue'er was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed red.

She was terrified, but it turned out to be a parrot that was talking?

She instinctively reached out to shoo it away, her fingertips barely touching the tip of the parrot's wing—

"Ouch!"

The icy coldness crept up her fingertips in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, her palms were frozen into ice cubes.

Shuiyue gasped and frantically shook her hands, but the ice didn't budge, making her grimace from the cold.

"Moon!" Shui Bing'er quickly got up, grabbed her sister's wrist, and tried to melt the ice.

But as soon as her soul power touched it, the ice block not only didn't melt, but instead became even thicker.

"Don't move," the parrot said lazily. "This is the ice of the Ice Phoenix bloodline; you can't break it."

"But don't worry, it won't freeze you to death; it'll thaw on its own in about 15 minutes."

Shui Yue'er was dumbfounded, "Ice...Ice Phoenix bloodline?!"

"Oh, you don't believe me?" The parrot's tone carried an air of offended arrogance.

"Although in my generation, the bloodline is a bit diluted, and it's not noticeable in appearance."

"But bloodline is something ingrained in your bones, don't you understand?"

As it spoke, it suddenly spread its wings.

A pale blue halo suddenly appeared among the gray and white feathers, revealing its aura.

It's actually a 60,000-year-old soul beast!

"This strength," the parrot folded its wings back to its sides, "is it enough to shut you up?"

Silence fell around the campfire.
