Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.

Upon seeing what Qian Xunji was holding, Xue Di's ice-blue eyes, which had remained calm and still for millennia, contracted sharply.

Even as the ruler of the far north for seven hundred thousand years, she could not remain calm at this moment. The golden token emanated an energy level that terrified her.

That was the true aura of a god. The soul beast race was suppressed by the rules of the divine realm. As a ferocious beast that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, she was the most sensitive to this aura and also the most wary of it.

The mere wisp of eerie blue aura emanating from the jade box held in Qian Xunji's other hand caused the Eternal Ice Platform beneath the Snow Emperor's feet to resonate with a yearning.

That was a Xuanbing Marrow core of unknown grade, its level far surpassing even ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow. If one obtained it, let alone eight hundred thousand years, nine hundred thousand years would be easily within reach.

"A token of divine favor... and Xuanbing Marrow of unknown grade..."

The raging blizzard surrounding Xue Di visibly subsided, and she stared intently at Qian Xunji, her exquisite face filled with solemnity and vigilance.

"Human, who exactly are you? You've come to the far north forbidden zone with a divine token and brought out such a treasure. What do you intend to do?"

Do you want my far north to submit? Or do you want to use this to exchange for a 100,000-year-old soul beast from the far north to become your soul ring?

Seeing that Xue Di was finally willing to speak properly, Qian Xunji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ahem... Let me introduce myself. I am Qian Xunji, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall."

Qian Xunji retracted the twelve wings of light on his back and slowly landed on the ice ten meters away from Xue Di. He straightened his collar, trying to make himself look more sincere and full of the charm of a superior.

"As for my purpose..."

Qianxun opened her mouth, but the words she had rehearsed countless times in her mind suddenly became stuck like a gear when she met Xue Di's ethereal, pure, and untouched eyes.

How do I even begin?

Having grown accustomed to issuing orders in the Papal Palace, the thought of him proposing a blind date to a soul beast that had lived for 700,000 years felt incredibly incongruous.

"Um...that..." Qian Xunji touched his nose, his eyes flickered for once, and his tone was somewhat hesitant.

"Actually, the scenery in the far north is quite beautiful. I just... feel that as the ruler of the far north, it's a bit... a bit lonely at the top for you, Snow Empress..."

Xue Di's brows furrowed visibly.

Are these humans crazy?

When he withstood her Emperor's Palm strike just now, his aura was as deep as the ocean, but now he's like a useless piece of trash with his tongue tied in knots.

"Humans, my patience is limited." The Snow Empress's voice turned icy again, and the temperature, which had just calmed down, plummeted once more, even causing fine ice crystals to condense in the air.

"If you've come to the far north just to spout this nonsense, then you can get lost."

Although she was reluctant to part with the Xuanbing Marrow, this person's cultivation was only at level ninety-three, but his methods were strange and he gave off a very odd feeling. The Snow Empress herself was not confident that she could keep him.

"Damn it, I'm going all in. Whether I stick my neck out or not, I'll get stabbed anyway!"

Chihiro gritted her teeth and made up her mind to go straight for the ball.

He took a deep breath, squeezing his lung capacity to the limit, and then unleashed a torrent of words at an appallingly fast pace, like a raging storm:

"Simply put, I've been single for many years and need a partner of exceptional talent and strength to carry on my bloodline. Looking across the entire Douluo Continent, only you, the Snow Empress of the North, are worthy of my attention. Therefore, I've come today to formally invite you back to the Spirit Hall to become my partner and form a powerful alliance!"

Quiet,

A deathly silence.

The entire Eternal Ice Abyss seemed to have been completely drained of air in that instant, and even the ice shards suspended in mid-air seemed to be frozen in mid-air by these outrageous remarks.

Snow Empress was stunned.

She has lived for a full 700,000 years. In those long years, she has seen countless powerful humans who came to their deaths for the sake of soul bones, and she has seen ferocious beasts fighting tooth and nail for territory.

But she had never seen... a human being, with a holy angelic halo and divine tokens, run to the absolute core of the far north, withstand her attacks, just to say to her: I want you to be my partner.

A full three seconds passed.

On Xue Di's icy and beautiful face, a trace of intense human emotion finally appeared.

It was a kind of overwhelming rage that came from being offended, a rage that wished it could freeze the lecher in front of it and the whole world into an ice sculpture!

"You...you're...asking for...death!!!"

Rumbling--

The Snow Empress was furious!

This ethereal, pristine snow maiden suddenly went berserk. Her originally icy blue eyes instantly turned a deep, frigid blue, and her white hair danced wildly in the gale, making her resemble a god of death wielding extreme cold.

【Emperor's Cold Sky - Snow Dance Under the Sun】

The strongest domain skill was instantly unleashed, darkening the entire sky. Countless terrifying ice and snow tornadoes, each over ten meters in diameter, rose from the ground, sweeping towards Qian Xunji with overwhelming force.

"That tigress has such a terrible temper."

Qian Xunji felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the seemingly world-destroying spectacle. He knew very well that he had come to form an alliance and arrange a marriage, not to fight to the death.

If I were to fight a rampaging, 700,000-year-old ferocious beast to the death here, I'd probably never be able to find a mate in this lifetime.

"A strategic retreat; let's plant a seed today."

With a sudden wave of his hand, he released the jade box containing the [Douluo Star Companion Profound Ice Marrow Core] and the magnificent clothing box containing the [Ice Crystal Dream - Immortal Feather Divine Dress],

Enveloped in soul power, it landed steadily on the ice platform beneath the Snow Emperor's feet.

At the same time, using the power left behind by Qian Daoliu in the Angel God's Decree, the twelve wings of light on his back instantly burst forth with dazzling light. Not only did they block the first wave of storm's destruction, but with the help of the counter-force, he transformed into a golden lightning bolt and turned around to rapidly retreat to the outskirts of the far north.

As he retreated at breakneck speed, Qian Xunji's voice pierced through the blizzard, no longer displaying the awkwardness of before, but instead exuding an arrogant and domineering aura:

"Snow Empress, I've kept the things. This is not charity, but a sign of my sincerity."

"The jade box contains the core of the Mysterious Ice Marrow that is associated with Douluo Star. It will be of great use to you. The other box contains a top-quality fairy dress. It has little defensive function, but it is worthy of your status as the most beautiful woman in the far north. When you are alone, you may want to give it a try."

"I know that your soul beast race is suppressed by the rules of the God Realm and will eventually be crushed by the Heavenly Tribulation. But as long as you are willing to join forces with me, I guarantee that you can become a god. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to inquire about my name, Qian Xunji."

As Qian Xunji flew backward, he pointed with his backhand.

A very thin, jet-black feather that shimmered with a dark gold luster.

It transformed into a hidden streak of light, landing precisely above the magnificent clothing box.

The extreme darkness and sinful aura emanating from the feathers were the complete opposite of his previous image as a holy angel, exuding an eeriness and profundity that could not be ignored.

"This black feather is my personal token. No matter where you are on the continent, if you face a life-or-death crisis, or if you come to terms with my suggestion, crush it. Snow Empress, think it over carefully. I will definitely come back."

"boom--"

With the final sonic boom, Qian Xunji's composed and elegant figure had completely disappeared into the swirling snow of the far north.
