Douluo Continent: Martial Soul - Ice and Snow Maiden, Calls Snow Empress "Mom"

Chapter 47 Xiao Wu: Xue Di is her mother? How is that possible?

"boom-!!!"

"The Ruler of the Far North! The Ice and Snow Maiden! The Snow Empress!!!"

These words were like heavy hammer blows, striking deep into Xiao Wu's soul!

As a soul beast that has lived for 100,000 years, how could Xiao Wu not have heard of this renowned name that resounded throughout the entire Douluo Continent's soul beast world?!

That was a legendary beast with a cultivation of 700,000 years, unfathomable strength, and even the most terrifying beings deep in the Star Dou Great Forest had to be wary of it!

"I—I—"

Xiao Wu was completely terrified, frozen in place, her mind blank, unable to utter a single complete sentence.

Seeing Xiao Wu's dumbfounded expression, Xue Bingchen, who was standing to the side, sighed helplessly.

He stepped forward, reached out, and without any hesitation grabbed Xiao Wu's two fluffy rabbit ears on her head and tugged them gently.

"Hey, wake up, snap out of it," Xue Bingchen said irritably.

"oops!"

The sensation in her ear finally brought Xiao Wu back to her senses from extreme shock.

She shuddered violently, nodding frantically like a chick pecking at rice. Her eyes, filled with undisguised awe and fear, stared at the Snow Emperor as she stammered, "I've heard of you! You—you are the legendary supreme ruler who has lived for seven hundred thousand years and rules the entire far north—"

Seeing Xiao Wu's reverent expression, a faint smile finally appeared on the Snow Empress's perpetually icy face.

A stunning smile.

"Very good. Now that you know who I am, our communication will be much easier."

The Snow Empress's smile faded, her gaze turning deep once more. She asked directly, "Now, tell me, why would a Soft-Boned Rabbit who has just stepped into the threshold of 100,000 years choose to risk its life and undergo a transformation instead of staying peacefully in the forest?"

Xiao Wu did not answer immediately upon hearing Xue Di's question.

She hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and secretly glanced at Xue Bingchen standing next to Xue Di.

Although Xiao Wu was naive, she wasn't stupid. Her perception, typical of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, clearly told her this.

The white-haired older brother who had just pulled her ear had no trace of a soul beast aura about him!

He is definitely a pure human Soul Master!

"and----"

Xiao Wu's mind raced, conjuring up a wild imagination: "This terrifying Snow Empress clearly emerged from this human Soul Master's body! What exactly is their relationship?"

"Could it be—that Lady Snow Empress has been enslaved by this human? Or have they made some kind of evil deal?"

"Waaaaah—Could it be that Lady Snow Empress deliberately captured me to curry favor with this human, intending to kill me and offer my spirit rings and spirit bones to this human spirit master?!"

The thought of this terrible possibility brought tears to Xiaowu's eyes; she felt so wronged that she was about to cry.

Seeing Xiao Wu's eyes darting around, clearly lost in thought, Xue Bingchen couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Stop looking, my mom's asking you a question, so just answer honestly, understand?"

Xue Bingchen crossed his arms and struck a "bad boy" pose, deliberately trying to scare her.

"Mother?!"

Upon hearing this title, Xiao Wu was stunned once again!

She stared blankly at the tall, handsome, and pure-blooded Xue Bingchen, then turned her head to look at the noble and aloof Xue Di, whose true form was a 700,000-year-old Ice and Snow Maiden.

"This—how is this possible?!"

Xiao Wu felt her worldview was about to collapse: "A human Soul Master calling a 700,000-year-old ferocious beast 'Mom'?! This cross-species kinship recognition is too outrageous! Could it be—could it be that this older brother is the illegitimate child of the Snow Empress and some powerful human?!"

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Wu's little head conjured up a tragic love story spanning hundreds of thousands of words, spanning different races.

Seeing Xiao Wu's increasingly strange gaze, Xue Di frowned slightly, as if she had guessed what kind of nonsense the little rabbit was thinking.

"Alright, stop with your pointless speculations."

Xue Di explained in a calm tone, "Just say it directly. Chen'er is a child I adopted when he was young. Although he is a human Soul Master, he is also the young master of my far north region and a person from my far north."

At this point, Xue Di reassured Xiao Wu: "Since I still have questions for you, at least for now, he won't kill you to take the ring."

Upon hearing Xue Di personally acknowledge this relationship, Xue Bingchen nodded in deep agreement.

"Alright, Mom has already vouched for you. Do you think I would slaughter you and make you into spicy rabbit head or roast rabbit meat right in front of her?"

Xue Bingchen thought to himself, "Moreover, I can also see that the Snow Emperor is really very curious about why you took human form."

If you don't tell the truth, you're probably not getting through this today.

With Xue Di's assurance, Xiao Wu's heart, which had been hanging in her throat, finally settled back into her stomach.

She took a deep breath, her eyes slightly reddening, and finally honestly explained why she had chosen this path of no return.

"Actually—I didn't want to take human form either."

Xiao Wu's voice trembled slightly as she recalled the agonizing past: "Not long ago, an extremely powerful human female Soul Master broke into the Star Dou Great Forest. She possessed an extremely evil Evil Spider Martial Soul, and she also had twin Martial Souls. My mother was ambushed by her... Waaah~"

"She—she found her way to the territory of our Soft-Boned Rabbit clan. My mother, to protect me, risked her life to hold off that demon—"

Xiao Wu finally couldn't hold back her tears and they slid down her cheeks: "In the end, my mother was cruelly hunted down and killed by that female demon! She—she became that female demon's spirit ring!"

""

"I hate it! I hate it so much!"

Xiao Wu suddenly raised her head, her eyes burning with a deep-seated hatred: "I want revenge! I want to kill that demon with my own hands and avenge my mother!"

"But----"

Xiao Wu's voice sank again, filled with helplessness: "But Da Ming and Er Ming told me that the demon is too strong, and even they are not confident that they can defeat him."

""

"And I—my true form is just a soft-boned rabbit with extremely pitiful combat power."

If I don't transform and rebuild my strength, if I don't integrate into the human world to find a way to become stronger, I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to avenge my mother in this lifetime!

"Therefore, despite Da Ming and Er Ming's desperate attempts to stop me, I resolutely chose to transform into human form!"

Xiao Wu wiped away her tears, looking stubbornly at Xue Di and Xue Bingchen: "This is my reason! Even if the road ahead is fraught with peril, even if I die at the hands of a human soul master, I will never regret it!"
