Chapter 395 The Leaf Fox That Needs to Evolve
"Is the strategist available?"
Di Tian stepped through the air and slowly descended, landing in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The two kings of demons, Wan Yao Wang and Yao Ling, who came to greet Di Tian, both knelt on one knee.
"The strategist has been staying in the Lake of Life recently," the demon spirit replied.
Di Tian nodded, and with a thought, his armor transformed into a black robe amidst layers of shimmering black light.
"How did the interrogation of those humans go?" Di Tian asked, his hands behind his back.
The group of people who had invaded the Star Dou Great Forest with Wen Shu and other gods who had descended to the mortal realm were spared their lives at Ye Nanxiao's special instruction and sent to be interrogated by the Demon King to see if any useful information could be obtained.
Upon hearing Di Tian's question, the Demon King placed one hand on his chest and respectfully replied, "Beast God, those humans have been brought under control, but it's as if they're shackled when it comes to matters concerning the Upper Realm. They can't get any information out of us as soon as we mention the Upper Realm. We need to use tree powder to slowly erode their spirits."
Di Tian nodded. People from the divine realm are generally extremely cautious when acting in the mortal world. It is normal for them to place seals on their followers to prevent their information from leaking out.
"What's your opinion on this, strategist?" Di Tian glanced at Yao Ling.
"Yes, the strategist said it's normal not to get anything out of them. Keep them alive, don't kill them. They can be our guides when we infiltrate the human world," the demon spirit said excitedly.
He finally had the chance to infiltrate the human world again. Last time at the village entrance, he hadn't had a proper chat with those old men!
He hadn't finished hearing the secret of Tie Zhu's family yet!
"Is that so? Then let's do as the strategist suggests," Di Tian said, slowly walking into the area of the Lake of Life.
The demon spirit and the King of Ten Thousand Demons stopped in front of the Lake of Life.
Emperor Tian issued a sealing order for the Lake of Life, forbidding any other soul beasts from entering it except for him and Ye Nanxiao.
Even the demon spirit who served as Ye Nanxiao's personal bodyguard could only wait outside the Lake of Life.
As Di Tian walked, the space in front of him suddenly rippled with water.
The water surged out, swirled around Di Tian, and disappeared only after sensing Di Tian's aura.
"The Lord's barrier has been strengthened even more." Di Tian pondered slightly.
Ye Nanxiao was left in the Lake of Life by Gu Yuena, and was not allowed to leave the area. He was also instructed to communicate through the demon spirit. In Di Tian's view, this meant that Gu Yuena wanted to keep Ye Nanxiao in the Star Dou Great Forest so that he could continue to serve the Soul Beast Organization.
Di Tian naturally approved of letting Ye Nanxiao stay in Xingdou, as he greatly admired Ye Nanxiao's strategies, especially in the area of resource acquisition.
Upon seeing a peerless figure, Di Tian immediately straightened his clothes, composed himself, and strode forward after confirming that everything was alright.
Ye Nanxiao lay on a rock by the lake, lazily basking in the sun, enjoying the nourishing effects of the Spirit Blossom Grass on his soul.
Di Tian walked over, immediately catching Ye Nanxiao's attention.
The current Di Tian already possesses some of the Beast God's demeanor that Ye Nanxiao remembered, who dominated the world of soul beasts. He walks with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, exuding an aura of authority without anger.
"My lord!" Di Tian straightened his robe and knelt on one knee.
The slight tugging sensation from the robe made it feel less comfortable than the armor, but it was the rule in the human world not to wear armor when meeting a king, and Di Tian thought that made perfect sense.
"What is it?" Gu Yuena asked, her expression still cold.
Di Tian briefly sorted out the events in his mind and said, "When we were expanding our power, we encountered several significant obstacles, and 80% of the people we sent out were wiped out."
"No team was wiped out. Which team survived?" Ye Nanxiao rolled over and slowly got up from the rock.
Di Tian glanced at Gu Yuena, who nodded slightly.
"The northern team survived, but they also suffered considerable damage. Their cultivation has not progressed at all for ten thousand years," Di Tian said in a deep voice, a hint of ferocity in his brows.
Attacking the troops he sent out is tantamount to slapping him in the face.
Di Tian originally thought that after his battle with Hypoplus, he should become famous throughout the world, but now it seems that his name is not known.
"The far north, you're lucky to even survive," Ye Nanxiao said, waving his hand.
"Did the returning team mention what kind of spirit beast they encountered—a scorpion or a gorilla?"
Ye Nanxiao felt that the exchange team had most likely encountered the gatekeeper of the far north, the Titan Snow Demon King.
After all, a monarch is not someone you can meet casually.
Ye Nanxiao's words left Di Tian somewhat confused: scorpion and gorilla?
"We encountered a huge soul beast, its entire body covered in long white fur, and it walked upright," Di Tian repeated the description from the surviving team.
"That should be one of the kings of the far north, the Titan Snow Demon King, who has a rather bad temper," Ye Nanxiao said.
Upon hearing Ye Nanxiao immediately identify the other party, Di Tian couldn't help but become curious, "The strategist also knows about the soul beast races in the north?"
"I don't know much, just a little bit." Ye Nanxiao stretched out two blades of grass, leaving a small gap in the middle.
Seeing Ye Nanxiao's gesture indicating "a little bit", Di Tian ultimately didn't ask any further questions. After reporting to Gu Yuena, he left.
After Di Tian left, Ye Nanxiao continued to lie on the rock, lazily basking in the sun.
"Is the strategist troubled?" Gu Yuena suddenly asked.
She could clearly sense that Ye Nanxiao's interest had waned considerably.
"I was just thinking about something," Ye Nanxiao said calmly.
Xue'er is also present in this world, at this time of time.
I wonder what Xue'er looked like at that time.
Ye Nanxiao suddenly felt a strong urge to go to the far north and meet the Snow Emperor.
"Xue'er, I wonder what you're doing right now?" Ye Nanxiao murmured.
The sunlight in the sky was suddenly blocked, and Ye Nanxiao was brought back from his reverie to see Gu Yuena looking down at him.
"What's up, boss?" Ye Nanxiao sat up.
"You seem to know the soul beasts from the far north. Xue'er, are you a soul beast from the far north?" Gu Yuena asked.
Ye Nanxiao nodded, "A little snow maiden from the far north, whom I met by chance."
He addressed the Snow Emperor as the Snow Maiden, without directly stating the Snow Emperor's name.
Regardless of whether Gu Yuena would believe it, the current Snow Empress has absolutely no connection with Ye Nanxiao.
"Snow Maiden, a soul beast born of the heavens and earth. The fact that you met her means you are lucky. If you can befriend her, it will be of great help to you." Gu Yuena nodded slightly.
Soul beasts, born of the natural world, are extremely rare.
"Yes, all the luck I've had in my life was used up in that one moment," Ye Nanxiao said with a smile.
It wasn't just good luck; Ye Nanxiao felt like his ancestors' graves were emitting smoke.
"From what you're saying, you know more than just the Snow Maiden?" Gu Yuena was a little curious. Did the Ice God Realm have any connection with the ice-attribute soul beasts in the mortal realm?
"Well, we spent some time together back then," Ye Nanxiao said ambiguously.
"There are quite a few stories, would you like to hear them?"
Gu Yuena nodded; she had always been very curious about the Ice God Realm.
Ye Nanxiao sat up with a jolt, and when he felt like it, he stopped sunbathing.
He'd had enough of being cooped up in the Lake of Life with Gu Yuena for so many days; he'd rather sit on the spirit's head and be bothered by it.
"Let me tell you, the little snow woman is really cute!"
"Xue'er..."
A soft sound came from Ye Nanxiao's mouth.
The two women, who were initially frightened by the energy emanating from Ye Nanxiao, quickly came to their senses and rushed to Ye Nanxiao's side.
"What are you doing now?" Xue Di stared at Gu Yuena.
"Little Snow Maiden, you're not the only one who can care about him," Gu Yuena said with a smile, showing no intention of backing down.
Xue Di snorted coldly, ignoring Gu Yuena, and instead began to study the energy on Ye Nanxiao's body.
The crimson energy cluster was slowly shrinking, and strands of energy were constantly seeping into Ye Nanxiao's limbs and bones.
Ye Nanxiao's strong blood energy made his heart beat exceptionally powerfully.
"What else exists inside him?" Gu Yuena asked.
"Guess?" Xue Di glanced at Gu Yuena.
"Little Snow Maiden, are you itching for a beating again?" Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes, her aura rising.
"It seems you don't know Xiao'er as well as you claim." Xue Di retorted, unleashing her own aura to counter Gu Yuena's oppressive aura.
The smell of gunpowder instantly filled the underground cave.
"Ugh!"
Ye Nanxiao suddenly let out a groan, his body jolting violently.
"Crackling sound~"
The sound of bones grinding together echoed within Ye Nanxiao's body as he continuously absorbed energy, further enhancing his physique.
The translucent, jade-colored bones glowed within Ye Nanxiao's body and grew slowly.
Ye Nanxiao's long-desired height has finally been achieved once again.
The clothes worn on the body could not withstand the flow of energy and turned into powder little by little.
Gu Yuena's eyes widened instantly, her purple pupils reflecting Ye Nanxiao's jade-like body.
"Close your eyes, Your Majesty!!"
An ice wall appeared in front of Gu Yuena, blocking her view.
Xue Di quickly glanced at Ye Nanxiao's condition, "Fortunately, his important clothes are still intact."
Gu Yuena's expression turned cold, and she reached out and pressed her hand against the ice wall, shattering it.
Xue Di stepped in front of Gu Yue Na.
"Little Snow Maiden, it seems I need to teach you what it means to respect your elder sister," Gu Yuena said coldly.
"Stop trying to glorify yourself!" Xue Di crossed her arms and refused to back down an inch.
"Go away, little snow maiden!" Gu Yuena reached out and placed her hand on Xue Di's shoulder.
Xue Di was startled; she hadn't seen at all when Gu Yuena made her move.
Even if Gu Yuena's true form is still asleep, the power of her incarnation is something that Xue Di cannot stop.
It didn't take long for Gu Yuena to pull Xue Di away.
With a slight blush on her face, Gu Yuena stared wide-eyed at Ye Nanxiao.
Nine fluffy tails had already enveloped Ye Nanxiao's entire body, assisting him in absorbing energy.
"It's alright." Xue Di breathed a sigh of relief, proudly raising her chin as she looked at Gu Yuena.
