Chapter 17 Three Transformations
Although Xue Di didn't understand the meaning behind Huo Yuhao's gaze, she still knew some basic etiquette in the human world. Huo Yuhao had accepted her gift, so it was normal for him to want to return it, right?
Many times, if you don't understand something, just don't understand it. When it comes to matters of the heart, the best thing is for things to happen naturally, isn't it?
"I look forward to your next visit, Yuhao. Is this your name? I heard Tianmeng call you that before," Xue Di said to Huo Yuhao with a smile.
"My surname is Huo, and my given name is Yuhao. My friends and family like to call me by my name, and I hope Xue Di can call me that too." Huo Yuhao tried his best to remain calm so as not to lose his composure in front of Xue Di.
For the first time, Huo Yuhao felt the need to care about someone's opinion of him. Because he cared, he wanted to do everything he could to show his maturity and rationality in front of that person.
After all, his soul is not that of an impulsive underage teenager, but that of a mature adult who has experienced much. What the adult world needs most is dignity.
Xue Di nodded slightly and said nothing more. She walked quietly to the innermost ice platform in the ice cave, which was also the largest ice platform here.
She gently stroked the phoenix ice sculpture on the ice platform with her slender hands, a trace of melancholy flashing in her eyes, "This is where my old friend rests."
As she spoke, she turned to look at Huo Yuhao, "Now you need to be prepared, I'm going to retrieve her remains."
Huo Yuhao nodded, then found an open space near the ice platform, took a cushion from his soul tool, and sat cross-legged on it.
With the Star-Drawing Technique activated, Huo Yuhao summoned both Bingdi and Tianmeng simultaneously. He anticipated another excruciating pain. Although he was experienced after what happened with Bingdi, one could never be too cautious in such matters.
Ice Empress stared at Huo Yuhao with resentment in her eyes. She was very unhappy that Snow Empress would smile at a human. She had just witnessed the whole thing between the two of them in her spiritual sea. She didn't know who she was jealous of. Her little mouth was pouting. Anyone who saw her could tell that this little loli with dark green twin ponytails was in a very bad mood at the moment.
Huo Yuhao coughed lightly twice, not looking at Bingdi's face, but instead turning his head away as if he were a little guilty. Then he saw the other blonde loli with a white hood, openly making fun of him.
However, with Xue Di right next to her, Tian Meng didn't dare to tease Huo Yuhao immediately. Normally, she could make Huo Yuhao dream about her joking with him.
At the same time, Xue Di gently placed her hand on the ice platform, and then activated her extreme cold soul power. The next moment, the ice platform seemed to be made of water, enveloping Xue Di's hand.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao saw a pair of ice wings appear in the ice platform that had turned into water. They were ice blue in color, but had a jade-like texture.
The Snow Empress gently lifted it up and slowly took it out of the water. A breathtaking surge of soul power fully awakened as the ice wings were exposed to the air again!
Snow Empress held the pair of ice-jade-like wings and slowly walked to Huo Yuhao, presenting them to him with both hands.
Huo Yuhao stood up and bowed deeply, both to the Snow Empress and to the owner of the soul bone. Having completed the proper etiquette, Huo Yuhao looked into those azure eyes, nodded gently, and accepted the pair of wings into his hands.
The extremely cold aura that hit Huo Yuhao's hand almost froze it. You should know that he has now completed the fusion with the Ice Emperor. In theory, ordinary extreme ice should not be able to affect him. You can imagine what level of attainment the owner of this soul bone had reached in terms of extreme attributes in his lifetime!
Huo Yuhao suppressed his surprise, hugged the soul bone, and sat back down on the cushion. He nodded slightly to Bingdi and Tianmeng, and then said, "Let's begin."
Ice Emperor said solemnly, "Originally, my soul bone had already occupied all of your ribs, so you couldn't possibly absorb this Ice Phoenix Wing. But now there is another method, the pain of which may even exceed that when you fused with me before. So, Yuhao, are you really prepared for this?"
Huo Yuhao said without changing his expression, "Remember? I said I have many enemies. If I want to take revenge without restraint, I need the strength to dominate this world. For this goal, and to have the strength to match my vengeful heart, I'm not afraid of suffering any hardship!"
"If becoming stronger simply through suffering is possible, then please bring on as many as you can!"
What is said without malice may be taken to heart by the listener.
The Snow Empress's usually calm and collected heart seemed to be slightly touched, and she gained a completely new understanding of this tiny human.
In less than a day, her opinion of the boy changed three times. The first change was from Huo Yuhao’s talent to that of a person blessed by heaven.
The second point is about Huo Yuhao's character, his transformation from a selfish person to a friend worth making.
The third time is now. Xue Di is starting to wonder about Huo Yuhao's past. What kind of person would have such a deep-seated hatred? What kind of hatred could make a child of about ten years old willing to endure excruciating pain in exchange for power?
She wanted to know
Xue Di didn't ask, because she was different from Bing Di and Tian Meng. She hadn't yet become someone with a shared destiny with this boy, and she wasn't qualified to know about this human's past.
These complex thoughts were unknown to anyone but the Snow Emperor, and no one would have imagined that the Snow Emperor, the dignified ruler of the far north, would one day ponder so many intricate emotional issues.
In the world of soul beasts, strength is everything. If you want to know, why not just use your strength to force them?
The ferocious beast Bear King in the Star Dou Great Forest is an outstanding example of this kind of thinking.
However, Xue Di did not want this to happen.
She has always been a person who doesn't compete with others. Except for the issue of the far north, where she is unyielding, nothing else matters to her. Why would she force someone she has just befriended, someone who could even be called a friend, to do something for her own sake?
Xue Di slowly gathered her scattered thoughts and suppressed her restless heart. What she should do now was protect Huo Yuhao and help her old friend awaken from his slumber.
On the other side, seeing Huo Yuhao's decisiveness, Bingdi didn't say anything more and immediately began to explain the next steps to Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, because 90% of my soul bone power has been assimilated, you must do the whole process yourself. I will assist you from the side. In a moment, I will help you activate the self-melting of your soul bone. After that, you must control this power to keep it within the original position of your torso bones and prevent it from going berserk."
"Then you'll need to devote some energy to drawing the Ice Phoenix Wings in. During this process, the two soul bones will definitely repel each other, so you must be mentally prepared! My power and Tianmeng's power are both working in tandem with you; you must complete these steps on your own."
Huo Yuhao rubbed his chin, as if he had thought of something.
"Hyotei, you're overcomplicating things. I'll just use the power of the stars to communicate with the Ice Phoenix Wings; that might be faster."
