Soul Land 2: Golden Dragon King

Faced with Lin Yun's direct and forceful approach, Bing Di tilted her head in confusion.

Goodness, what a bold statement.

Even she didn't know how to survive, yet this guy suddenly claimed he could keep her alive and demanded her immediate submission?

Did she, the great Ice Emperor, not have any dignity?

If it had been anyone else, she probably would've hit them with an Ice Emperor's Wrath on the spot, turning them into an ice sculpture.

But after glancing at Xue Di and Di Tian beside her, Bing Di silently abandoned that dangerous thought.

The main reason? The Golden Dragon King's pressure radiating from Lin Yun was suppressing her, a pure soul beast, even more intensely than Xue Di.

Feeling uncertain, Bing Di sneaked a glance at Xue Di—only to see Xue Di frantically signaling to her with her eyes.

"Agree! Hurry up and agree!"

...Fine. The dignity of the great Ice Emperor could be set aside for now.

"I just want to survive. It's not like I actually want to submit to you! Hmph! ╭(╯^╰)╮"

"Supreme Lord, I… I am willing to submit." No matter how much she complained internally, on the surface, Bing Di respectfully gave her answer.

Sigh… it's all because of Xue'er's orders~

"Mm, very good. Submitting to me is the wisest decision you've ever made," Lin Yun nodded in satisfaction.

[Ice & Snow Emperors: (2/2) Achievement Unlocked!]

"Hopefully…" Bing Di muttered quietly.

Anyone who had been a ruler for so long would feel uneasy suddenly gaining a superior. Right now, Bing Di was experiencing just that.

Unlike Xue Di, she hadn't been subjected to Lin Yun's transcendent knowledge and foresight as a transmigrator. She hadn't been overwhelmed by Lin Yun's persuasive speech either.

So naturally, she wasn't as obedient as Xue Di.

But that was fine.

Very soon, Bing Di would willingly start calling Lin Yun "Revered Lord".

Thinking about his future plans, Lin Yun ignored Bing Di's little attitude and turned to Xue Di.

"Since you two have already submitted to me, once you finish handling matters in the Extreme North, head to the Star Dou Forest."

"Di Tian and I have other things to take care of, so we won't be accompanying you."

"Head to the Star Dou…" Xue Di hesitated slightly.

But since she had already made her decision, there was no need to waver now.

"Yes, Supreme Lord. Once Bing Di and I settle things here, we will make our way to the Star Dou Forest as soon as possible!"

Xue Di was immensely curious about this mysterious Soul Beast Supreme Lord.

What exactly… is he planning?

As she watched Lin Yun and Di Tian disappear into space, Xue Di stood in silence for a long time.

Then, on her cold and proud face, a smile bloomed—as breathtaking as an ice lotus growing atop a glacier.

"Heh… how interesting…"

"Xue'er, why did you agree to follow that Soul Beast Supreme Lord?" Bing Di asked, puzzled.

"Does our Extreme North really need to get involved in the Star Dou Forest's affairs?"

If it weren't for Xue Di, Bing Di never would have submitted—even if Di Tian was stronger than her, even if Lin Yun's dragon aura stirred a deep instinct to kneel.

Just because he said he could keep her alive, she was supposed to believe him?

Why should I trust him?

Anyway, I only have about a hundred years left to live. If you dare to play rough, I might as well just self-destruct and splatter you with my blood.

We're all soul beast rulers here—who doesn't have a bit of a temper?

The reason Bing Di agreed so easily was largely due to Xue Di's influence. Their bond of hundreds of thousands of years as sisters fostered a trust that outsiders simply couldn't understand.

"Bing'er, you don't understand," Xue Di shook her head and spoke softly. "The foundation of the Star Dou Forest is far beyond your imagination. And besides, you're still young—you don't know the history of many ancient events."

"So you can't possibly comprehend the former glory of the dragon race, nor how powerful they once were. They were the undisputed rulers of the Douluo Continent."

"And even now, they still are."

How did Xue Di even know that Di Tian had a superior in the form of the Soul Beast Supreme Lord? It was because she had once sensed Gu Yuena's presence!

As the oldest soul beast in the Extreme North, Xue Di knew far more inside information than Bing Di. Otherwise, she wouldn't have told Huo Yuhao that, under certain circumstances, their Extreme North region had to obey Di Tian's orders—something Bing Di herself had been unaware of.

In fact…

She might have even spoken directly with Gu Yuena.

As for whether or not they had actually faced each other, only Xue Di and Gu Yuena would know the answer.

"Moreover, his terror is beyond your imagination as well. Just know that I would never harm you." Xue Di smiled as she reached out and stroked Bing Di's twin ponytails.

"Mm, mm! Xue'er, I'll listen to you!" Bing Di pressed herself against Xue Di, her normally tsundere face now sporting the grin of a lovestruck fool.

"Hehehe, my Xue'er~ Xue'er~~"

"Alright, now go back and inform your clan. Otherwise, they'll be searching the entire Extreme North for you, wondering where you ran off to." Xue Di sighed helplessly and peeled Bing Di off of herself.

Reluctantly, Bing Di let go, glancing back every few steps as she flew toward the Ice Jade Scorpion territory.

After watching Bing Di leave, Xue Di also departed.

As the ruler of the Extreme North, she wouldn't have disappeared so suddenly if not for the unforeseen circumstances. Some matters still needed to be handled.

Now that both she and Bing Di were about to leave, the responsibility of protecting the soul beasts of the Extreme North had to be passed on.

After a brief moment of thought, Xue Di appointed the Titan Snow Demon King as the temporary ruler during her absence.

As for the Ice Bear King, Xiao Bai…

Having raised him herself, Xue Di knew all too well that this kind of responsibility simply wasn't suited for that thick-headed brute. Ah Tai (the Titan Snow Demon King) was the better choice in every aspect.

It didn't take long to issue these orders.

Two hours later, the Ice and Snow Emperors reunited and set off together toward the Star Dou Forest.

At the same time, Lin Yun and Di Tian had arrived at their destination.

"Revered Lord, why have we come here?" Di Tian gazed at the human city beneath them with a trace of killing intent in his eyes.

"Do you need me to erase this city?"

"Why is your mind filled with nothing but slaughter?" Lin Yun rolled his eyes.

Opening and closing his mouth, all he could think about was massacring cities. Di Tian, you're walking a narrow path!

Did he not understand that soul beasts were in decline now and needed to act with caution?

"Move quietly into the village—if they shoot, take out the gunners first!"

Di Tian was utterly speechless at Lin Yun's response.

He really wanted to say: Revered Lord, I'm only following your will—that's why I choose to kill!

Isn't the most reckless brute… you?

After giving Di Tian a side-eye, Lin Yun turned his gaze toward the city below, eventually locking onto a bustling area filled with buildings and people.

At the entrance of this district, an archway bore three large ink-brushed characters:

"Earth Dragon Gate"!

This city was—

Dragon City!
