Chapter 549: The Dilemma and Choice of the Ice Emperor and Snow Empress

The violent aura deep within the Star Dou Great Forest slowly dissipated.

A deep ravine nearly a hundred meters long was left on the open ground, and faint purple electric sparks were still rising from the scorched marks.

Er Ming’s massive body shrank beside the broken log, and he was rubbing the back of his head with his cattail-leaf-like big hand.

The sleek black hair on his body had been curled and scorched by the electricity, making him look like a huge lump of black charcoal.

"Brother-in-law... Your lightning packs way too much power."

Er Ming muttered in a muffled voice, his tone devoid of even a shred of the ferocious might of a forest overlord.

"Are you going to act up again next time?"

Lin Qingmo found a slightly flat rock and sat down.

He leaned against the thunder-scorched broken log of Er Ming and casually took a bite of the 10,000-year crimson fruit handed over by Er Ming.

"I won’t, even if you beat me to death, I won’t act up anymore."

Er Ming shook his huge head and ingratiated himself repeatedly.

The 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape has always been renowned in the Spirit Beast world for its absolute strength and defense.

Yet just now, Lin Qingmo hadn’t even fully released his Spirit, and relying merely upon a few bolts of Destruction Divine Thunder, he had forcefully torn apart his proud Titan Domain.

Those punches landing on his body felt so intensely sore and refreshing that he almost cried out for mom on the spot.

Da Ming also let out a long sigh.

"Brother-in-law, the Divine Might you displayed just now has already exceeded the scope of human Titled Douluos."

"With Xiao Wu following you, Er Ming and I are a thousand times at ease now."

Lin Qingmo smiled, didn’t say much, and casually summoned the Chat Group panel in his mind.

The fluorescent blue light screen flickered slightly in the Void Realm.

[Daddy Douluo]: @A Rogue Rabbit @Big-Breasted Kitty @Little Witch @Yanzi~ @Mother Tyrannosaurus @Little White-Eyed Wolf, have you guys arrived at Sea God Island yet?

As soon as the message was sent, the originally static interface instantly flooded with chat messages like crazy.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: We’ve arrived! SeniorHigh Priestess Bo Saixi even came to greet us personally!

[Big-Breasted Kitty]: Yeah, we’re just about to start the trial of the Seagod’s Light.

[Little Witch]: Heh-heh, this Young Miss is currently taking her trial~

[Yanzi~]: Sigh, it’s just that the heavily salted sea breeze makes my skin feel dry and uncomfortable every time. I wonder how long we’ll have to stay here this time.

Looking at the lively replies in the group, Lin Qingmo’s lips relaxed slightly.

With this group of little princesses safely arriving at their destination, the stone in his heart finally settled completely.

[Daddy Douluo]: @High Priestess Bo Saixi, Senior, please take good care of these girls of mine on Sea God Island from now on.

[High Priestess Bo Saixi]: This is Sea God Island; protecting them is our duty, as long as they follow the guidance of the God Trials.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: A-Qing, A-Qing, where are you right now? Are you really not coming to Sea God Island?

[Bingbing]: He actually didn’t go to Sea God Island?

[Daddy Douluo]: The Sea God’s trials are useless to me. I am currently in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: You went to the Star Dou Great Forest? Did you run into Da Ming and Er Ming?

[Daddy Douluo]: Ran into them. Just sparred with Er Ming a moment ago, by the way.

The rapidly scrolling interface of the Chat Group paused for half a second.

[Little Witch]: You beat Er Ming? That Titan Giant ApeEr Ming? That’s a 100,000-year-old forest overlord!

[Big-Breasted Kitty]: A-Qing, did you win? Are you hurt?

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Need you even ask? Since he can still leisurely send messages in the group, he must be doing just fine.

[Little White-Eyed Wolf]: So... the winner is Lin Qingmo? That’s a 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape comparable to a Super Douluo!

[Golden Angel]: Have you reached the point where you can even suppress a 100,000-Year Soul Beast head-on now...?

Sitting in the secret room of the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Qian Renxue looked at the handwriting on the screen, her slender fingertips tightly pinching the corner of her clothes.

She prided herself on possessing the top-tier Divine RankSpirit, the Seraphim, yet she was being left further and further behind by Lin Qingmo in the progress of the God Trials.

Hu Liena also bit her lower lip tightly.

This man’s growth rate was simply despairingly fast.

[Daddy Douluo]: I won, and both Da Ming and Er Ming call me brother-in-law now.

The Chat Group was silent for a full three seconds.

[Yanzi~]: Huh?

[Little Witch]: What?

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: A-Qing, what did you say? My ears aren’t acting up, are they?

[A Rogue Rabbit]: Y-Y-Y-Y-You what? Da Ming and Er Ming call you brother-in-law?

[Big-Breasted Kitty]: ...Brother-in-law.

[Little White-Eyed Wolf]: Two 100,000-Year Soul Beasts respectfully addressing a human as brother-in-law—this is the first time I’ve ever felt that this word could be so absurd.

[Grass Mother]: Mmm-hmm, I saw it right beside them just now. Both Da Ming and Er Ming strongly acknowledge A-Qing as their brother-in-law.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: Sister Ah Yin, how come even you’re saying that? A-Qing, what on earth did you do to Er Ming?

[Grass Mother]: A-Qing just had a fight with Er Ming, and then Er Ming very proactively changed his address.

[Daddy Douluo]: Yep, I really didn’t do much, just discussed the philosophy of life with him using Destruction Divine Thunder.

[Daddy Douluo]: Er Ming has been a smart kid since he was little; take the most vicious beatings, and you’ll still know to call him brother-in-law.

[Daddy Douluo]: He felt that my fists were extremely persuasive and the beating was extremely satisfying, so he changed his address voluntarily.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Tsk, you make it sound so understated. I bet his skin was just itching and you beat him into submission hard.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: But calling him brother-in-law is pretty good. Consider this big gorilla to have some vision.

[Little Witch]: Wait, doesn’t this mean A-Qing now has two 100,000-Year Soul Beasts as underlings? That’s way too cool! Won’t we be able to walk sideways across the mainland from now on!

[Yanzi~]: I see someone not only hanging up and beating a 100,000-year overlord, but also making him a brother-in-law; this move is truly ruthless.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: Er Ming, that big foolish lump, actually got beaten so docilely by you, A-Qing...

[Daddy Douluo]: This is called reasoning with virtue; the divine thunder is my virtue.

[Grass Mother]: Er Ming’s head is still smoking, but he looks very obedient and is still handing fruits to A-Qing.

[Little White-Eyed Wolf]: I yield, I am truly completely yielding. You’re probably the only one under the heavens who can boss around a 100,000-Year Soul Beast as an underling.

[Golden Angel]: Your Destruction God Trials... exactly which step have you reached?

[Daddy Douluo]: The third trial.

[Golden Angel]: To have such strength by the third trial?

[Bingbing]: Winning against a 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape and making him submissively call you brother-in-law—just what realm has your strength reached now?

[Daddy Douluo]: Let’s just say it’s very strong.

[Daddy Douluo]: You guys take your trials well on Sea God Island. If you encounter any difficulties, shout for me in the group.

[Daddy Douluo]: If the Sea God dares to give you a hard time, I’ll go dismantle his Sea God stage.

[High Priestess Bo Saixi]: ...

High Priestess Bo Saixi’s mood was complex.

She had never expected that someone would dare to be so arrogant toward Lord Sea God.

But she knew that Lin Qingmo had the ability to make Lord Sea God personally descend an oracle to help.

...

The cold wind whistled, sweeping across the ten-thousand-li ice field.

The 10,000-year ice fog of the Far North wrapped around the howling wind, tearing at the firmament.

The Snow Empress stood atop the thousand-zhang towering ice cliff, her ice-blue long hair blown by the violent wind into a straight line.

Her posture was frail yet extremely aloof, resembling an eternal, unmelting ice and snow sculpture between heaven and earth.

The Ice Emperor quietly walked to her side and asked, "Xue’er, what are you thinking about?"

"I am thinking about that kid Lin Qingmo."

The Snow Empress’s eyes moved slightly, her highly penetrating ice-blue gaze casting toward the distant south.

"He defeated the 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape."

"The Titan Giant Ape possesses the same Tai TanBloodline as Ah Tai, and the Bloodline is even more top-tier."

"How old is he, yet he can defeat the King of the Forest head-on."

"This shows that his Destruction God Trials have probably advanced another step."

"At this rate, it might not take him too long to become a god."

Hearing the Snow Empress’s words, the Ice Emperor fell into a long silence.

The ice and snow all over the sky swirled and danced above their heads.

The storm beneath the ice cliff emitted a low, whimpering roar.

The Snow Empress’s 700,000-year Heavenly Tribulation was getting closer and closer.

That was a sharp blade suspended above her head, capable of piercing her Soul at any moment.

Without the help of a Divinity, it was simply impossible for a Spirit Beast to cross that natural chasm.

The Ice Emperor: "You mean we should go look for him?"

The Snow Empress shook her head: "It’s not a matter of whether we should look for him, but when we will see him."

"Our Heavenly Tribulation is a certain-death scenario."

"Sitting here and waiting for death on this ice field, our only end will be turning to ashes."

"A bit later, once he completely ascends to the supreme God Position, we will lose our chips."

"By then, in his eyes, we will merely be two snow ants in the snowfield that can be wiped out with a wave of his hand at any time."

"Bing’er, gods are high above."

"Gods will not bestow charity upon ants."

"Swearing allegiance before he completely reaches the pinnacle—that is the wisest choice."

"Taking advantage of the time he is still accumulating God Trials in the mortal world to show our value—that is our only way out."

The Snow Empress let out a soft sigh, and the exhaled white breath condensed into tiny frost particles.

Her deep gaze penetrated through layers of ice fog and landed on the distant south.

That was the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, and also a direction full of variables.

"Our dilemma really cannot be dragged out any longer."
