"I want to be with you. I know it's wrong, but I can't control it."
Listening to the Tianmeng Iceworm's words, Huo Yuhao was completely taken aback by this unexpected side of the Tianmeng Iceworm.
However, the Ice Emperor remained unmoved by the Tianmeng Iceworm's words.
All of this was within the Tianmeng Iceworm's expectations. After so many years, he had finally returned to the Extreme North, and he didn't care about the Ice Emperor anymore.
He just wanted to express his true feelings to the Ice Emperor.
This was also his last time being in such a peak state.
At the same time, it was also his boldest move.
The Tianmeng Iceworm kept talking, but there was no response from the Ice Emperor for a long time.
"Ice Emperor, could it be that you were moved by me and decided to let me go?" The Tianmeng Iceworm suddenly chuckled.
"Hehe, if it were before, I would naturally swallow you to repair my injuries and pass through the calamity of four hundred thousand years. But now, it's not necessary."
The Ice Emperor's voice reappeared, leaving the Tianmeng Iceworm stunned. "Not necessary? What do you mean?" He didn't understand what the Ice Emperor had experienced during the time in the Star Dou Forest.
He calculated it very clearly; the Ice Emperor's remaining time should only be about a hundred years.
"I have a covenant with the Ice God, and I'm about to fulfill it. While I'm in a good mood now, you'd better roll away as far as possible and not force me to take action."
"Ice God? What's that?" The Tianmeng Iceworm was bewildered.
He had slept for a million years, either in the Thousand-Year Ice Marrow or in the Star Dou Core Pool, and didn't know anything about the events of ten thousand years ago.
"Get lost."
The only response to the Tianmeng Iceworm was the Ice Emperor's indifferent words.
A massive pressure overwhelmed them, causing the Tianmeng Iceworm to deflate like a punctured balloon, never uttering another word.
The mental pressure that oppressed the Extreme North suddenly disappeared.
Although he didn't understand what was happening at the moment, it was evident that the plan had failed.
The Tianmeng Iceworm returned to Huo Yuhao's body without encountering the Ice Emperor, so naturally, it didn't need to use its remnants.
Huo Yuhao had only spent a long time under the snow.
However, feeling the immense power and his own insignificance, Huo Yuhao's heart was still greatly shaken.
But his heart remained firm; even without a second martial soul, he could still become stronger!
The Tianmeng Iceworm could sense Huo Yuhao's emotions and breathed a sigh of relief. "It seems you're stronger than I imagined."
"Rest assured, the Ice Emperor was the best choice I prepared for you. Although the plan failed, the good news is that my original power was not consumed much."
"Although the Ice Demon Titan is also a good choice, I ranked him last. I'm not familiar with that guy, and he's not easy to deal with."
"Now, you slowly walk within the core circle, and I'll use mental detection to help you find a suitable hundred-thousand-year soul beast."
"Really? Thank you, Tianmeng Brother!" Huo Yuhao exclaimed with joy.
Amidst the raging snowstorm, his tiny figure dodged the soul beast, advancing in the heavy snow.
After releasing the Tianmeng Iceworm, the Ice Emperor's heart was not as calm as she had shown.
"I let him go just like that. If the Ice God deceives me, then my life will end here..." The Tianmeng Iceworm had said so much, naturally, the Ice Emperor wouldn't remain completely unaffected.
She had a better option, which was to directly devour the Tianmeng Iceworm. In this way, she could ensure her survival and not fear being deceived by the Ice God.
But for some reason, she unexpectedly softened her heart and let the Tianmeng Iceworm go.
"Sigh..." Within the cave, the incredibly beautiful Ice Empress Scorpion retracted her huge pincers under her body, a combination of ice-blue and emerald-green. Her beautiful eyes closed as she fell into slumber.
She seemed to once again see the scene of her conversation with the Snow Emperor three hundred years ago.
It was on a stormy night, with an unusually bright starry sky.
Ice Emperor: "I won't be able to resist the 400,000-year limit. However, the Ice God promised me that a young man would come to find me in ten thousand years. By then, following him, I can ascend to godhood."
The Ice Emperor looked up at the sky. She had the opportunity to ascend to godhood with the Ice God, and she had also requested it before.
But the Ice God refused.
"Now, ten thousand years have almost passed. I don't know if it will happen."
The Snow Emperor patted the Ice Emperor's head. "You better not hold out hope; humans are not trustworthy."
"Even if she is the Ice God, it's the same."
"After the Ice God disappeared, she has never appeared again. How can we be sure that the inheritor of the Ice God will have the power of the Ice God? How can it be said that following you will make you a god?"
"You have a point, but she is after all the inheritor of the Ice God. I should believe in her. If that person appears, I will follow the Ice God's covenant. If not, perhaps becoming human is the only choice."
"Perhaps." The voice of the Snow Emperor disappeared, along with the Snow Emperor's figure.
The Ice Emperor's time was running out, and so was the Snow Emperor's.
After that conversation, the Ice Emperor had never seen the Snow Emperor again, and she didn't know what she had been doing.

The Ice God's Mystery Realm.
On the grassy gathering ground of the immortal herbs, a pill furnace stood, with Shui Wu Ya extinguishing the fire and collecting the pills. New pills were produced.
The nearby spiritual herbs had all been refined.
Over the past eight months, he had taken some pills himself and given some to the Shui Bing'er from ten thousand years ago.
With the Soul Spirit Method taught by Shui Wuya, Shui Bing'er obtained suitable soul spirits and became a Soul King. Now she was level 56.
And he had advanced to level 46.
"You've worked hard, Wuya." Seeing the pills that appeared beside him out of thin air, Shui Bing'er knew that these were newly refined pills by Shui Wuya, and warmth flowed in her heart.
"Ancestor, these are pills I refined using the Ming Lan Spirit Grass. They are very helpful for calming and awakening the spirit. These are the last pills." Shui Wuya quickly explained a few words and then left.
Transferring items consumed much more mental energy than conversing.
Looking at the pills in her hand, Shui Bing'er felt moved.
So far, it had always been Shui Wuya providing her with help.
This kind of selfless help made her feel very uncomfortable, feeling indebted to Shui Wuya.
At the same time, she secretly made up her mind that she must repay Wuya in the future. At the very least, she must find him a hundred-thousand-year soul spirit, no, several hundred thousand!
