Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 434 The Mermaid Clan

Upon entering the tavern, a warm feeling washed over her. Qian Renxue loosened the outer garment she had just put on, exhaled softly, and a wisp of white mist appeared.

She went to the bar counter and gently tapped her fingers together.

According to Hyotei, the floor above the tavern should be where they are staying temporarily.

Since she was already there, Qian Renxue quietly swallowed.

I haven't had any alcohol in a long time, and I'm a little craving it.

The bartenders seemed to be a young couple; a beautiful young woman and a handsome young man were busy serving customers. Seeing Qian Renxue sit down at the bar, the girl approached her: "Hello, sir. Is there anything you need?"

Qian Renxue recalled the arrogant guard from earlier and couldn't help but think that his words and actions might represent some of the local customs and traditions.

"Your Majesty the Snow Emperor is above." Qian Renxue placed her hand on her chest, her face full of piety.

The girl was instantly shocked, not understanding what Qian Renxue was doing, and quickly followed suit, placing her right hand on her left chest.

"Give me a cup of spring water from the far north. I hope its temperature is exactly four degrees Celsius. Too cold or too hot will affect its taste..." Qian Renxue said elegantly.

The boy was instantly shocked. He stopped what he was doing, took out a small notebook, and began to take notes.

"...The glass for it should be chilled, not a metal one, but a glass. I just came from the south and wanted to escape the metallic smell for a while. When pouring it into the glass, the bottle should not be open for more than ten seconds, as air getting in will also affect the taste..."

"Finally, some aged fine wine is needed to bring out the naturalness and fragrance of the spring water."

The young couple who served as waiters were surprised: "So, how much aged wine do you think would be appropriate?"

"One full cup, please," Qian Renxue said casually.

The waitress nodded solemnly, then whispered to the boy, "This time, we've met a master. Go and get ready."

The boy scratched his head: "But, according to this girl's standards, it should be..."

The girl patted her boyfriend on the back: "Stop nagging! Just do what the customer asks for! Does she look like someone who's short of money?"

The boy looked strange, then went into the bar, muttering to himself, "How strange. What could have happened to this girl? Could she have been influenced by that guard at the south gate?"

Qian Renxue's excellent hearing caught these words.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she thought everyone in this small city was like that magical or neurotic guard, so it seemed to be an isolated case.

Because the city is located too far north, there weren't many people along the way, so I didn't hear much conversation.

The residents here are cold-resistant, but they're not stupid; they know to stay indoors in this kind of weather.

Qian Renxue finished her drink, casually left three gold soul coins, and got up to leave.

"Hey, miss, you've given too much!"

Qian Renxue remained calm and composed: "Praise be to Bingxue. Consider the extra amount as compensation for your emotional distress."

Turning right after entering the tavern, Qian Renxue boarded a soul-guided elevator and arrived at the top floor.

This was actually an apartment building, and she hadn't expected the Ice and Snow Emperors to condescend to live in such a place. She reached the top floor and instantly realized her earlier assumption was wrong, because the top floor actually contained only one room, its area equal to the combined area of ​​all the rooms on the other floors.

Before she could even knock, the door opened automatically.

"You knew I was here?" Qian Renxue walked into the room, and this time she genuinely shivered.

"We knew you were secretly drinking; we had a monitoring soul tool." Xue Di gave Qian Renxue a strange look. "Were you stopped by that guy at the south gate when you came here...?"

Qian Renxue felt a little annoyed. She had been pretending her whole life, but this time it seemed she had overdone it.

"No, how could that be?" She pouted.

"The residents here were indeed very welcoming when we arrived, but it wasn't as exaggerated as some people say." Hyotei's expression was also quite interesting. "That was purely the spontaneous behavior of enthusiastic fans."

"I thought it was some kind of formalism," Qian Renxue teased.

Xue Di reached out and raised the indoor temperature a bit, so that Qian Renxue wouldn't get a cold bottom when she sat down.

Qian Renxue glanced at Xue Di. This guy must have absorbed some of the power of the cold spring he obtained from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well during this period, and now he has actually reached the bottleneck of level 50.

"I don't have twin martial souls, so I can't use high-age soul rings to increase my soul power level as much as you do. I'm already quite satisfied with this speed." Xue Di seemed to have seen through Qian Renxue's thoughts.

When she participated in the Soul Master Competition, she was in her forties. In the past year and a half, she has improved to level fifty through the power of heaven and earth and the Primordial Immortal Herb, which is quite rapid.

After all, Xue Di was considered a Soul Master with the ultimate attributes.

"Of course, I also helped harmonize those extreme ice powers." The Ice Emperor seemed a little proud.

The three chatted about what had happened recently.

"Since you're here, I'll tell you about the good stuff here." Xue Di smiled mysteriously.

"What good stuff?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.

"In this icy sea, there exist many sea spirit beasts that once existed between the two continents. Among them is a race called the Mermaid Clan," said the Snow Empress.

"What is their relationship with the Sea Maiden Douluo?" Qian Renxue asked疑惑地.

"I don't know." Xue Di shrugged. "But I know the leader of their group, a 600,000-year-old sea princess. The sea princess is one of the rulers of this sea area and also a soul beast with very strong spiritual power."

Qian Renxue frowned imperceptibly.

"I always thought that the Sea Princess clan was a relatively gentle group among the sea spirit beasts. In their relationship with the far north, they have always played the role of a persuader," the Snow Empress said calmly.

"What do you mean, you want us to coexist peacefully?" Qian Renxue frowned. "Would you agree to the territoriality of soul beasts?"

"Yes, that's what she meant. Because at the time, I was busy preparing for the Heavenly Tribulation of seven hundred thousand years, so I didn't have much time to get entangled with her, and Bing'er didn't want to disturb my thoughts either. But actually..." The Snow Emperor's eyes lowered slightly, "The Arctic, not just the land of the far north ice plains, including this icy sea, has always been my territory!"

"But in reality, the sea spirit beasts still harass the icefield spirit beasts in the far north from time to time, and occasionally come ashore to attack the humans in the northern part of Sun and Moon. After I declared war on the Demon Soul White Shark clan, these sea spirit beasts seem to have stopped pretending." Snow Empress said in a low voice, "In this year, they have fought with some races in the far north."

"Six hundred thousand years..." Qian Renxue pondered for a moment, "This level of cultivation would rank among the top even among ferocious beasts."
