67: The situation in the Far North, convincing the Snow Emperor

Chapter 67: The Situation in the Extreme North Land, Persuading Snow Empress

“What overbearing power! I am definitely not his opponent in a head-on clash.” Snow Empress once again felt intense pressure, but she remained calm, directly avoiding a frontal confrontation and launching attacks on Ye Wen from different angles.

Bang bang bang!

The two sides, one wielding twin hammers and the other a long sword, continuously attacked, countered, fought, and engaged in fierce combat.

But Snow Empress occasionally paid attention to the battle between Ice Bear King and Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion. Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion was still able to fight, but Ice Bear King was miserable, being besieged and beaten by Da Ming, Er Ming, Evil Tiger, and Xiao Bai.

He couldn't last much longer.

“You're still distracted while fighting me?” Ye Wen instantly appeared behind Snow Empress and was immediately hit by the extremely clear and captivating fragrance of Snow Empress’s body.

This was certainly not the time to pay attention to a woman’s body, fragrance, or scent. Ye Wen directly swung a hammer with force.

Bang!

Snow Empress blocked in time, but was still sent crashing to the ground by Ye Wen's hammer.

Ye Wen followed up with another smash, but Snow Empress timely dodged.

Bang!

Snow Empress was beaten back step by step, let alone controlling Ye Wen to provide support.

After a brief exchange, Ice Bear King finally succumbed to the encirclement and was knocked down by Da Ming, Er Ming, Evil Tiger, and Xiao Bai, completely losing his combat ability.

Er Ming stayed to control Ice Bear King, while Da Ming, Evil Tiger, and Xiao Bai continued to join the battlefield, cooperating with Slaughter King to besiege Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion.

The situation became increasingly urgent. The Spirit Beasts of the Extreme North Land had practically lost any chance of winning.

After the three of them joined, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion instantly fell into a disadvantage.

Snow Empress knew she couldn't drag it out any longer. She had to use her strongest power to defeat Ye Wen with all her might!

“Emperor's Palm! Great Cold Without Snow!!”

Snow Empress once again chose a head-on confrontation with a palm strike. This was her strongest move!

“Eight-Sided Overlord Hammer!” Ye Wen also unleashed his hammer technique, striking with a single hammer.

Bang! Boom boom boom!

The two sides' powers were once again evenly matched, neither one knocking the other down, engaging in another fierce clash.

As they fought.

On the other side, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion also finally succumbed to the encirclement and fell, losing her combat ability.

“Your companions are all unable to fight any longer. Surrender, Snow Empress, you are bound to lose,” Ye Wen said while still fighting.

“Even if you knock us all down, we will not submit to you!” Snow Empress gritted her teeth.

“Heh heh, normally, at this point, someone would follow up with, 'You don't want to submit? Then I'll just kill you all! See if you want to die or submit, or rather, are you willing to watch them die?' But I, Ye Wen, disdain to use such methods and means to persuade you.

“Because, even if you don't want to submit to me, as long as you fall and cannot fight, you will absolutely, 100% submit to me.”

No sooner had Ye Wen finished speaking than Titan Snow Demon King, who was already surrounded by the power of the master-servant contract, finally stood up from the ground.

The current Titan Snow Demon King had been completely subdued.

He slowly stood up, incredibly loyal and devoted, kneeling on one knee before Ye Wen: “Master!!!”

“What… A Tai, you!”

This scene shocked Snow Empress, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and even Ice Bear King. Titan Snow Demon King, the leader of the Titan Snow Devil clan!

One of the highest-blooded Spirit Beasts in the Extreme North Land, the proud Snow Devil clan, had actually bowed their heads and submitted!

“Do you see? This is the ability I said could make you absolutely submit to me,” Ye Wen said calmly.

Titan Snow Demon King also tried to persuade them: “Snow Empress, surrender. We have already lost. Continuing to fight will not change the outcome.”

“What exactly did you do to A Tai? If I also fall, will we then also submit to you in that manner, like A Tai?” Snow Empress asked with a grim expression.

A Tai's appearance was as if he had been controlled, turning into an absolutely loyal servant to Ye Wen!

This was very difficult for Snow Empress, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and Ice Bear King to accept, as if their brains and minds had been controlled.

“Don't worry, the master-servant contract will not change your thoughts or self-awareness. You will still be yourselves, but in your minds, there will be an absolute thought: absolute loyalty to me!”

“If that's the case, then you're saying whatever you want us to do, we'll accept? If so, I'd rather die than submit to you like that,” Snow Empress said with great resistance.

“First, you cannot change the outcome. Second, as long as it's not a major event with a big impact, you can actually completely follow your own actions.

“Just like you are the co-ruler of the Spirit Beasts in the Extreme North Land, they will all listen to you as long as it doesn't cross a bottom line. Evil Tiger, Xiao Bai, Da Ming, and Er Ming can tell you this.”

In fact, for Spirit Beasts like Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai, their way of interacting with Ye Wen was no longer that of servants; more often, it was as friends and partners.

Also, for Da Ming and Er Ming, they wanted to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest and didn't really want to go to the Human World, and Ye Wen didn't force them. As long as it wasn't a major decision, they could make their own choices on some minor issues.

When Ye Wen said this, Snow Empress's mind was much more able to accept it.

Ye Wen continued: “Actually, I know that you, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, are now close to 400,000 years of cultivation, right? When you experienced the 300,000-year tribulation, you almost didn't make it through and died. So you yourself have realized that you most likely won't be able to pass the 400,000-year heavenly tribulation, am I right?”

“You, how could you know!” Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion was once again astonished.

Ye Wen smiled and said no more, then turned to Snow Empress and said: “You, Ice Sky Snow Woman, Snow Empress, you have actually been at the 690,000-year peak for a very, very long time, haven't you?”

“You have been trying to break through the 700,000-year mark, but unfortunately, each attempt has ended in failure. You even thought of trying a yin-yang complementary Spirit Core to break through the 700,000-year mark, but you know that the failure rate of doing so is very high.”

“Once it fails, your own essence will be severely damaged, and you will no longer be able to attempt to break through the 700,000-year bottleneck and heavenly tribulation, and I can tell you very clearly that you will definitely fail.”

“I even know that you also have this idea of preparing for failure: if you fail, you will use a 100,000-year snow lotus as an lead, complete the sealing of your own essence, and choose to cultivate anew into a human, right?”

Ye Wen's series of words left Snow Empress bewildered, shocked, and astonished!

This guy was like a parasite in her own mind. Why did he even know about such things, even her subsequent thoughts! This made Snow Empress truly unable to imagine.

“Why do you know these things!” Snow Empress asked with extreme confusion.

“Heh heh.” Ye Wen chuckled.

Of course he knew, because his soul did not belong to this World, but came from a World that understood this World.
