Jiang Nannan smiled, having a good impression of the somewhat familiar Wang Dong'er.
Di Mingli scoffed disdainfully, thinking "What a bootlicker."
She looked deeply at Jiang Nannan, remembering that Jiang Nannan was present in Su Yu's memories.
Su Yu had known Jiang Nannan even before meeting her.
Fortunately, the relationship between Su Yu and Jiang Nannan wasn't that kind of relationship.
At least she hadn't seen any scenes of Su Yu having an intimate relationship with Jiang Nannan.
However, she couldn't be careless. Whether Jiang Nannan had those kinds of feelings for Su Yu was still unknown.
After some thought, she nodded at Jiang Nannan and said softly, "Di Mingli."
"Hello."
Jiang Nannan didn't mind and returned a smile.
Snow Empress witnessed everything, looking at Su Yu with an ambiguous smile, seemingly wanting to see how Su Yu would introduce her.
From the way Di Mingli and Wang Dong'er looked at Su Yu, she could tell their relationship with him.
Moreover, she had seen these two before.
Noticing Snow Empress' gaze, Su Yu coughed and introduced, pointing at Snow Empress, "This is... Xue'er, my... fiancée."
Wang Dong'er: ??????
Di Mingli: "..."
Di Mingli narrowed her eyes. Although she had seen many scenes of the woman before her in Su Yu's memories,
Su Yu's boldness still somewhat exceeded her expectations.
She had originally thought Su Yu would try to cover it up somehow, but who knew Su Yu would be so daring?
Hearing Su Yu's introduction, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Snow Empress' eyes. You rascal, at least you know what's good for you.
"No... no..."
Wang Dong'er was shocked, looking at Su Yu in disbelief, "Where did you get a fiancée from?"
"How come I didn't know?"
Wang Dong'er felt like the sky was falling. Su Yu actually had a fiancée?
Wasn't Meng Hongchen the only one ahead of her?
Why did she suddenly feel like a clown?
"I have many fiancées, aren't you one too?" Su Yu said with a smile.
"Huh?"
"I am too?"
Wang Dong'er was confused. She was one too?
How come she didn't even know herself?
"Your first uncle and second uncle have already approved of me, and I've passed all the tests they gave. Doesn't that mean they've acknowledged our relationship?"
"So aren't you my fiancée?" Su Yu explained.
"Oh, I see~"
Wang Dong'er suddenly realized, so that's how it is~
The elders have approved, so she's already Su Yu's fiancée.
Wang Dong'er raised her little head, feeling her confidence return.
She glanced at Snow Empress, thinking she didn't envy her anymore.
Snow Empress watched all this with some amusement. This guy knows how to spin things, and it's all thanks to Wang Dong'er's innocence.
No wonder Su Yu called her a silly butterfly, it wasn't without reason.
Di Mingli's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at Su Yu, wondering how he would try to convince her.
She wasn't as easily fooled as Wang Dong'er.
Facing Di Mingli's gaze, Su Yu put his hands on his hips and said righteously, "What are you looking at? You want to run away?"
"Do we need to explain our relationship?"
Su Yu pointed at his brow, and Di Mingli's expression immediately softened.
What fiancé and fiancée, no relationship could be closer than their shared destiny. This was the most intimate connection.
You pass.
Di Mingli was satisfied in her heart, but her eyes couldn't help but scan Snow Empress, "Haven't we met before?"
Though it was a questioning tone, she was quite certain.
Snow Empress's ice-blue eyes were clear and cold as she said lightly, "We have indeed met, but I didn't expect Su Yu would bring you out."
"Those guys are quite daring too, actually letting you out."
Having met before, Snow Empress was very familiar with the aura around Di Mingli.
She couldn't see Di Mingli's identity clearly, but she remembered her aura.
"I didn't expect it either. To think such a small one back then would get the upper hand."
Di Mingli said, gritting her teeth a little.
If only Su Yu had been willing to bring her out earlier, Snow Empress wouldn't have had a chance.
Snow Empress was different from Wang Dong'er. This woman had already been thoroughly... eaten by Su Yu.
"Small?"
"Even those so-called uncles of yours wouldn't dare call me small."
"In my eyes, you're the little girl."
"Little girl, since you're out now, you need to behave. It's very dangerous out here."
"It's not like in there, where everyone pampers you."
Snow Empress spoke coolly, her expression cold.
"You!"
Di Mingli clenched her fists, "Don't underestimate me, I don't need protection."
"Hehe~"
Snow Empress chuckled, almost making Di Mingli's soul jump in anger.
Clearly, in the exchange with Snow Empress, Di Mingri was utterly defeated.
"Amazing!"
Wang Dong'er's eyes sparkled. This woman was really impressive, actually able to leave Di Mingli speechless.
Di Mingli clenched her fists, saying angrily, "Do you want to fight?"
Di Mingli, possessing the Golden Dragon bloodline, first thought of using force when encountering problems.
Snow Empress glanced at Di Mingli, "You want to spar with me?"
"You're not good enough yet!"
Di Mingli was already powerful enough, but Snow Empress was once a superpowerhouse.
Her vision and domineering aura were not something Di Mingli could compare to.
"Damn it, you dare look down on me."
Di Mingli gritted her teeth, obviously losing her composure a bit.
Su Yu quickly grabbed her hand, squeezing it hard.
Di Mingli winced in pain, her ice-blue eyes looking at Su Yu somewhat pitifully.
"Enough, stop quarreling. Meeting for the first time and it's all insinuations and veiled attacks, you think it's fun?"
Su Yu frowned, his eyes sweeping over the women with helplessness.
They really can't stay quiet for a moment.
Especially Di Mingli, wanting to fight with everyone, trying to be on top of everyone.
This girl's competitive spirit was still so strong.
Seeing Su Yu frown, the women all fell silent.
Di Mingli still wanted to argue, but she was defeated by one look from Su Yu.
Su Yu sighed and said lightly, "All of you, come with me."
As he finished speaking, Su Yu walked straight towards the palace in front.
Wang Dong'er immediately followed, and Snow Empress and the others also walked over.
Di Mingli's expression changed, she let out a light snort and silently followed at the back.
In the hall, Su Yu looked at the women before him and said, "I came back this time because I have something to do."
"Xue'er, Sister Nannan, you should all remember what I said before, that I would come back to get you when this Soul Dueling Tournament was about to start."
"Now it's less than two months before the tournament starts, so... you know what I mean."
Jiang Nannan was a bit excited and quickly asked, "Xiao Yu, do you mean we can all participate in this tournament?"
Su Yu nodded and said, "Except for Luo Chen who's over the age limit, you can all participate."
"Currently we have Sister Nannan, Xue'er, Dong'er, Mingli, Lan Lan, and me."
Wang Dong'er counted on her fingers and said, "We're still one person short."
"A team needs at least seven people, right?"
"That's simple, we can just call a few more people from the Ice God Palace. There are many suitable people in the Ice God Palace."
Snow Empress said.
Su Yu shook his head and said, "No need to call anyone else. I already have someone in mind for this position."
"By the way Xue'er, have you completed your third trial?"
Snow Empress nodded and said, "I've passed it. Currently, I'm about to start the fourth trial."
"The content of the fourth trial is to win the championship in this Soul Dueling Tournament."
Su Yu smiled when he heard this and said, "What a coincidence, it's the same as mine."
"This fourth trial is much simpler than I imagined."
Snow Empress complained, "As long as you don't provoke the Ice God, this trial wouldn't have been so difficult."
"Who told you to always like provoking the Ice God before?"
Snow Empress looked at Su Yu with some exasperation.
Weren't Su Yu's first and second trials so difficult before because he brought it upon himself?
This fourth trial is what the difficulty should have been like.
"Ahem, it's not that old woman who... okay, I won't say anymore."
Su Yu instinctively started to say something, but remembering everything the Ice God did during her seal in the God Realm, he swallowed the latter half of his words.
Although the Ice God was a bit tsundere and petty, in the end, she still considered a lot for him.
Su Yu still remembered this favor.
"Why don't you finish what you were saying?"
Snow Empress raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Su Yu gave her a look and called out, "Xue'er, I have some things to take care of. I'll leave Dong'er and Mingli in your care."
"Ling Guang, please arrange accommodations for them."
"Yes, young master."
Shui Ling Guang responded.
Wang Dong'er quickly spoke up, "Where are you going?"
Su Yu smiled and said, "Weren't you worried about Lan Fo Zi? I'm going to help you find a solution."
"Really?"
Wang Dong'er's eyes lit up, looking excited.
Su Yu smiled and pinched Wang Dong'er's cheek, teasing, "Do you think I'm lying?"
"Xue'er, I leave them to you."
Su Yu nodded to Snow Empress, patted Di Mingli's shoulder, and walked away alone.
Di Mingli watched Su Yu leave, immediately becoming spirited again, her beautiful eyes fixed tightly on Snow Empress, full of fighting spirit.
"Little girl, you're still not convinced?"
Snow Empress narrowed her eyes. This little golden lion cub was even more headstrong than expected.
"Only I can stay by his side."
Di Mingli declared as if stating a fact.
Snow Empress chuckled, "Little girl, come with me."
"Lady Xue'er."
Shui Ling Guang quickly spoke up, sensing another fight brewing.
"I know what I'm doing. Ling Guang, you go attend to your duties first."
Snow Empress waved her hand and said.
Shui Ling Guang shook her head.
The young master left her here, undoubtedly to watch over them. Of course, she couldn't leave.
"Then follow along if you want."
Snow Empress said indifferently, her gaze turning to Di Mingli. Di Mingli immediately puffed out her chest and followed.
A glint of gossip flashed in Wang Dong'er's pink-blue eyes as she hurriedly followed as well.
Jiang Nannan and Ling Luo Chen exchanged a glance, both hesitating.
After all, what was about to happen wasn't something people without close relationships should watch.
Ling Luo Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll leave first. Nannan, you go ahead."
With that, Ling Luo Chen left.
Jiang Nannan hesitated slightly, then gritted her teeth and chased after the group of women.
...
...
Meanwhile, Su Yu finally found Lan Lan and Lan Fo Zi.
Lan Lan was excitedly introducing the Ice God Palace to Lan Fo Zi, but Lan Fo Zi's face was pale, seeming somewhat distracted.
The more she toured the Ice God Palace, the more shocked Lan Fo Zi became. The profound heritage of the Ice God Palace undoubtedly deeply impressed her.
"Sister Fozi, that's the most important place in the Ice God Palace, the Nine Halls of the Ice God."
"Each hall here is guarded by at least a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse."
Lan Lan spoke cheerfully, but Lan Fo Zi's face grew even more troubled.
At a glance, the elite guard troops had an overwhelming aura, murderous intent surging. They weren't easy to deal with.
And there were at least four Titled Douluo leading them, and this was just for one hall.
For nine halls, how many Titled Douluo would there be?
At least over thirty, right?
Lan Fo Zi did a quick calculation and felt unwell.
Over thirty Titled Douluo, where could she run?
Wasn't this a certain death?
"Lan Lan, aren't you afraid?"
"There are Titled Douluo everywhere here, they..."
Lan Lan blinked in confusion and said innocently, "Why should I be afraid? They're all very nice people."
"But human soul masters all covet our soul rings and bones."
Lan Fo Zi said.
"No, they're not that kind of people. Big brother wouldn't allow it either."
Lan Lan was completely unconcerned, without a hint of worry.
"Your brother, Lan Lan, do you trust him so much..."
Before Lan Fo Zi could finish speaking, Lan Lan suddenly cheered, "Big brother!"
Lan Lan flew into Su Yu's arms like a baby swallow returning to its nest.
Su Yu caught her, fondly rubbing her little head.
Seeing Su Yu, Lan Fo Zi was visibly startled, her eyes becoming complex.
"Big brother, why did you come?"
Lan Lan hugged Su Yu's arm, clinging to him and asking coquettishly.
"I came to see you two. It's Lan Fozi's first time at the Ice God Palace, we can't neglect her."
Su Yu said with a smile.
Lan Lan giggled and said, "Don't worry big brother, Lan Lan has been taking good care of Sister Fozi."
Su Yu smiled and pinched her little face, praising, "I knew Lan Lan was the best. Big brother loves Lan Lan the most."
"Hehe!"
Lan Lan giggled happily at his words.
Su Yu stroked Lan Lan's smooth hair and looked ahead, "Miss Fozi, interested in a chat?"
Lan Fo Zi's heart skipped a beat, but she still nodded, "Of course."
It seemed she couldn't refuse anyway.
"Then let's walk together."
Su Yu held Lan Lan's hand and invited them.
Lan Fo Zi nodded silently in agreement.
The three of them walked along the streets of the Ice God Palace.
Along the way, Lan Fo Zi felt uneasy. She had a feeling that Su Yu was probably going to lay his cards on the table.
Su Yu looked at the surrounding buildings and casually asked, "Miss Fozi, do you find my Ice God Palace magnificent?"
Lan Fo Zi tensed up and answered, "Imposing and majestic, with profound heritage."
Su Yu smiled noncommittally and continued, "Actually, besides the soul masters and powerhouses on the surface, my Ice God Palace also has many powerful soul beasts guarding it. Miss Fozi, are you interested in taking a look?"
