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

the other side.

After accepting the bizarre fact that he had transmigrated to the Douluo Continent, been born in the far north of the human forbidden zone, and was taken in and raised by the Ice and Snow Emperors, Xue Bingchen's adaptability was exceptionally strong, and he quickly accepted everything.

Or rather, he had no reason not to accept it; he should have been secretly laughing under the covers.

After all, looking at the entire army of transmigrators, whose starting point could be more dreamlike and more heaven-defying than his?

From the moment he was born, he was raised by Xue Di, one of the strongest warriors in Douluo Continent, as if he were her own son.

The events of the past three years played out in his mind like scenes from a movie.

He clearly remembered that whenever the most violent, desolate winds swept across the far north, it was the Snow Emperor's seemingly weak yet unbreakable embrace that shielded him from all the cold and danger.

He clearly remembered how, in order to enable his fragile meridians to withstand the energy of rare and precious herbs, the Ice Emperor disregarded the dignity of a 400,000-year-old ferocious beast and, like a mother hen, carefully brewed pot after pot of priceless medicinal baths for him in the icy wilderness.

He remembered more clearly that whenever he cried out in hunger, a hint of helplessness and doting would flash across the Snow Empress's beautiful face, and then she would plunge into the bottomless ice abyss without hesitation to retrieve the most precious millennium ice marrow milk.

To prevent him from getting frostbite, the Snow Empress would always first hold the Ice Marrow Milk in her own mouth, using her 700,000-year-old primordial power to warm it to the most suitable temperature, and then gently transfer it into his mouth, mouth to mouth...

Thinking of this, Xue Bingchen blushed and quickly shook his head.

"In any case, my current identity, in a sense, is practically that of the 'young master' of this far north!"

Xue Bingchen secretly rejoiced.

Two of the top figures among the three kings of the far north are not only his "mother" and "aunt," but also his strongest backers.

In this far north, countless rare and precious materials, millennium-old ice marrow, and even those hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts would all detour around him.

Here, he can take whatever he wants in the far north, making him a hundred times more arrogant than those young masters born into the Spirit Hall or the three upper sects!

Just as Xue Bingchen was immersed in the wonderful fantasy of being the "Young Master of the Far North," with his mouth almost stretched to his ears, a bucket of cold water was suddenly poured over his head.

"Hey kid, what are you grinning about like an idiot? You're practically drooling!"

Hyotei appeared in front of him at some point, her cute and charming face now bearing an extremely wicked "evil smile".

She reached out her fair little hand and unceremoniously pinched Xue Bingchen's chubby cheeks, pulling them apart.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch... Aunt Hyotei, let go!" Xue Bingchen protested indistinctly.

Hyotei released his grip, placing his hands on her slender waist, looking down at him with a deliberately stern expression, and said in a sinister tone:

"Little Ice Dust, don't think that just because the Snow Emperor is protecting you, you can run rampant in this far north."

Let me tell you, all the benefits you're enjoying now come with conditions!

Hyotei moved closer, a dangerous glint in his emerald green eyes:

"In these three years, in order to lay a foundation for you, I have gathered all the treasures that can be plundered in the far north."

All of this is contingent on you awakening the 'Ice and Snow Maiden' martial soul for me when you turn six!

Hyotei suddenly clenched her little fist and said fiercely:

"If you haven't awakened the Ice and Snow Maiden Martial Soul by the time you're six, or if you've awakened some useless Martial Soul... Hmph, then that proves you're a worthless human waste with no potential! At that time, I will not only take back all the rare and precious herbs I've fed you over the past three years with interest, but I will also throw you into the Ice Bear King's cave so you'll know what 'it looks like' really means! Do you understand?!"

"ah?!"

Although she knew in her heart that Bingdi was probably joking, Xue Bingchen was still startled by Bingdi's realistic and fierce expression, as well as the terrifying pressure emanating from her body that belonged to a 400,000-year-old ferocious beast. She subconsciously shrank into Xuedi's arms.

"Bing'er! Don't talk nonsense!"

Before Xue Bingchen could even beg for mercy, a clear, cold yet authoritative voice rang in Bingdi's ears.

Xue Di frowned slightly, glared at Bing Di with displeasure, then reached out her jade-like hand and tightly embraced Xue Bingchen, like a mother lion protecting her cub.

Her icy blue eyes were filled with determination as she spoke in a serious tone:

"What do you mean by 'make him pay'? Chen'er is my child. Even if he turns six and hasn't awakened the Ice and Snow Maiden Martial Soul, even if he's just an ordinary person unable to cultivate, I will absolutely not do anything to him. I will protect him for life, allowing him to live a carefree life in this far north. Anyone who dares to lay a finger on him is an enemy of me, the Ice and Snow Maiden!"

Upon hearing this, Hyotei's large, emerald-green eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief.

She pointed at Xue Di, her mouth agape, about to shout a rebuttal:

"When you planned to adopt him, that's not what you said at all! You clearly said that if he failed to awaken the Ice and Snow Maiden Martial Soul, he'd be left to fend for himself and wouldn't have a good ending!"

The crazy retort that was stuck in Hyotei's throat almost slipped out.

You should know that the Ice Emperor clearly remembered the Snow Emperor's cold and ruthless, business-like demeanor as the ruler of the far north at the "adoption meeting" in the core circle of the far north three years ago.

How could it be that in just three short years, the Ice and Snow Maiden, with her 700,000 years of cultivation and decisive nature, has completely transformed into a "human mother" with no principles and an overprotective heart?!

The contrast is too great! Is this still the Snow Empress who made countless ferocious beasts tremble in fear?

However, before Hyotei could express his grievances and shock in words, he swallowed them back down.

Because Xue Di turned her head and gave her a light, indifferent glance.

Those were incredibly beautiful yet incredibly intimidating eyes.

The deep, icy blue pupils no longer held the icy, murderous intent that usually filled the world; instead, they held a hint of warning, reproach, and an air of authority that seemed to say, "Try to undermine me."
