Chapter 68: Ridiculous
In the Star Dou Great Forest, not far from the Lake of Life, the two Ice and Snow Empresses did not leave, but waited anxiously nearby.
They both stared toward the Lake of Life.
They had already made their decision.
If there was no news about Xiao Shuang after three days, or if anything happened to him, they would use everything they had to make the entire Star Dou Great Forest and Di Tian pay the price, even if it meant falling in the end.
Suddenly, the Snow Empress's eyes lit up.
Then the Ice Empress also seemed to sense something and flew forward with the Snow Empress.
Before long, the two Ice and Snow Empresses met Di Tian, who had returned with Ling Shuang.
When they saw the familiar figure behind Di Tian, two women's eyes lit up.
Ling Shuang jumped down from the back of the black dragon and walked toward the two Empresses.
Di Tian returned to human form again.
"I've brought him back."
After saying that, Di Tian did not stay any longer. He turned around and flew back toward the Lake of Life.
The two Ice and Snow Empresses did not care where Di Tian went. All their attention was on Xiao Shuang, who had just returned.
They quickly surrounded him, their beautiful eyes examining him nervously, afraid that he had suffered any harm.
Ling Shuang was helpless.
"Sister Xue'er, Sister Bing'er, I'm really fine."
But the two Empresses didn't respond to his words and kept checking him carefully.
Seeing that he had no other choice, Ling Shuang let them look him over.
Only after they confirmed with their own eyes that nothing was wrong did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Shuang, let's go back to the Far North first."
Although the Snow Empress was extremely curious about what had happened after Ling Shuang was taken away by Di Tian, she did not rush to ask. She preferred to return to the Far North first.
There, the safety factor was much higher.
In the Far North, it was their territory. Even if Di Tian came again, it would not be as difficult to deal with as it was today.
With the help of the two powerful Ice and Snow Empresses, the three of them traveled quickly and soon returned to the Far North.
Once there, feeling the familiar cold air, the expressions of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress became noticeably more relaxed.
"Alright, Xiao Shuang, tell us. Why did Di Tian take you?"
Only then did the Snow Empress begin to ask about what had happened.
"The Silver Dragon King sensed the aura of the God of Destruction on me, so she asked Di Tian to bring me to her."
Ling Shuang had no intention of hiding anything from the two Ice and Snow Empresses. They were the ones he trusted most, so he told them everything truthfully.
"The Silver Dragon King? The legendary half-incarnation of the Dragon God?"
Although the Snow Empress was not a direct subordinate of the Silver Dragon King like Di Tian, she had heard of the legends surrounding her.
She had always believed that the Silver Dragon King had died of her injuries, but now it turned out that she had been hiding in the Star Dou Great Forest all this time.
Most of the soul beasts in the Far North did not believe in the Dragon God, but instead believed in the Ice God.
In the original story, it was the Ice God that the Skydream Iceworm persuaded the Ice Empress to swear to.
So when they heard about the Silver Dragon King, neither of the Ice and Snow Empresses were particularly reverent.
The Snow Empress's first reaction was fear, followed by doubt.
"Xiao Shuang, are you sure the Silver Dragon King didn't do anything to you?"
Xue Di felt that based on the rumors, the Silver Dragon King should hate the gods of the God Realm.
Logically, since she had Di Tian bring the inheritor of the God of Destruction to her, she should not have let him go so easily.
She did not believe that the Silver Dragon Empress was afraid of their Far North forces.
"No," Ling Shuang shook his head.
He then recounted the conversation he had with the Silver Dragon Empress.
After hearing his story, the expressions on the faces of the two Ice and Snow Empresses became a bit strange.
"Xiao Shuang, are you saying that you threatened the Silver Dragon with the God of Destruction, and she not only let you go but also gave you some gold of life?"
The Snow Empress could not help but laugh.
The Silver Dragon had summoned Di Tian to bring someone to her because of the God of Destruction's aura on Ling Shuang. In the end, she was forced to let him go for the same reason and even offered compensation.
This was quite ironic.
Ling Shuang didn't feel that there was anything strange about it.
The Silver Dragon had underestimated the God of Destruction's concern for him, thinking he was a free-range inheritor like the previous Asura God's successors.
It was only Ling Shuang's progress in the God Test, which far exceeded his age, that made her suspicious.
But even so, the Silver Dragon was not wrong in thinking that the God of Destruction had taken a deeper interest in Ling Shuang.
Although he did not monitor him constantly, he would check in on him from time to time.
However, since the inheritance mark hadn't changed, it seemed the God of Destruction had not noticed anything during the time the Silver Dragon had blocked their contact.
In that case, Ling Shuang certainly would not mention the matter.
He had promised not to reveal anything about what happened that day to the God Realm.
In truth, the Silver Dragon was still burning with the desire for revenge after sensing the aura of the inheritor of the God of Destruction.
Otherwise, she would have realized based on Ling Shuang's age and progress that the God of Destruction was definitely paying attention to him.
Inheritors of his age couldn't find inheritances on their own. It was obvious he had been chosen and gifted it early.
After understanding all of this and confirming that there were no problems, the two Ice and Snow Empresses were finally completely relieved.
"Xiao Shuang, do you still plan to go back to the academy?" The Ice Empress asked reluctantly.
She felt that now that Ling Shuang had obtained his fifth soul ring, he would soon leave.
"No. I'll stay home for a while and return later," Ling Shuang shook his head.
He didn't plan to return to school this semester. During this time, he wanted to stay in the Far North, keep the two Empresses company, and use the gold of life to deepen his understanding of the laws of life.
"Really?" Hearing this, the Ice Empress's eyes lit up.
"Of course."
"Great, I love you so much, Xiao Shuang!"
Excited, Bing Di rushed forward and hugged Ling Shuang tightly, planting a big kiss on his cheek.
Snow Empress's expression immediately darkened. She stepped forward, pulled Bing Di away from Xiao Shuang, and scolded her with a stern face.
"Bing'er, men and women are different. Xiao Shuang has grown up. Watch your behavior."
"Tsk," Bing Di scoffed at the Snow Empress's so-called sense of propriety.
This bad woman who had once plotted something indecent against Xiao Shuang had no right to lecture her now.
If she hadn't shown up in time, Xiao Shuang would've already been claimed by the Snow Empress.
Now that the Snow Empress was spouting such high-minded words, Bing Di only felt disdain.
But with the Snow Empress glaring at her, she could not do anything too outrageous for now.
Time slipped by like sand through fingers.
Many changes had already taken place in the outer courtyard during the time since Ling Shuang had left.
