Listening to the Ice Empress's words, Kong Mingan paused slightly, his gaze involuntarily shifting to the side.
Under the Ice Empress's gaze, Kong Mingan swallowed slightly, his voice calm:
"Get up first, and let me check if there are any hidden dangers or problems left in your body."
The Ice Empress slightly narrowed those golden eyes filled with smiles, the corners of her mouth curling up involuntarily, and she couldn't help but hum softly.
She was very satisfied with Kong Mingan's current expression.
Humming a short, cheerful tune, the Ice Empress slowly stood up from Kong Mingan's body.
With her legs bare, the Ice Empress's exquisite, rounded, naked feet stepped onto the fluffy white carpet.
She walked slowly to the bedside and sat down, crossing her legs with a touch of elegance, one exquisite little foot gently raised, and whether it was intentional or coincidental, she swayed it gently towards Kong Mingan.
Lifting her snow-white, delicate chin slightly, the Ice Empress resumed her usual tsundere posture, her golden eyes shimmering, her tone carrying a hint of provocation:
"Come and test me."
Kong Mingan: "..."
Why does it feel like the Ice Empress has become strange after taking human form?
Kong Mingan paused slightly, suddenly remembering something, his expression turning strange:
"Why are you imitating the way the Snow Empress speaks?"
As soon as these words fell, the Ice Empress, who had been acting tsundere, could no longer hold it together, the tsundere look on her face visibly shattering.
Gritting her teeth, the Ice Empress retorted stubbornly: "Who is imitating the Snow Empress! I'm just asking if you're going to test me or not, alright!"
Confirmed, the Ice Empress is indeed imitating the Snow Empress.
Kong Mingan nodded thoughtfully, "Mm, you didn't."
"Dare you look me in the eye when you lie!" The Ice Empress, slightly triggered, couldn't help but stand up and give Kong Mingan two more punches.
They weren't heavy, just pure venting.
In the end, she sat back in her previous position, gently crossed her legs, and hummed coldly with her arms crossed: "Are you still going to test me or not? If not, don't disturb me, I still want to play games!"
Hmm. With that tone, the Ice Empress must be triggered.
Kong Mingan quickly made a judgment in his heart, a smile appearing on his lips involuntarily.
Looking at the Ice Empress with a smile, Kong Mingan's gaze softened, and he said slowly: "Don't be anxious, I'll test you now."
Walking forward, Kong Mingan set aside the Ice Empress's raised little foot, then took her hand, his palm glowing with faint ripples of spirit power and mental force, and began to carefully examine the Ice Empress's physical condition after her transformation.
Soon, the examination was over.
As Kong Mingan had expected, the Ice Empress's transformation was perfect, with no hidden dangers.
Letting go of the Ice Empress's hand, Kong Mingan said: "Let me see your spirit ring."
The Ice Empress nodded and raised her hand casually. In an instant, nine spirit rings rose from under her feet, with a configuration of five black and four red.
A powerful aura permeated the air; undoubtedly, the Ice Empress's cultivation was also that of a level 99 Limit Douluo.
Feeling the powerful, surging, and obedient strength within her body, the Ice Empress's eyes flashed with excitement involuntarily.
Compared to her Spirit Beast body, using spirit power in a human body was not as restricted.
Of course, most importantly, the sense of being locked onto by the Heavenly Tribulation, which had lingered in her heart for years like a sword hanging over her head, had completely disappeared.
This feeling of unconstrained lightness made her understand why the Snow Empress had basically stayed in human form after mastering the transformation.
The Ice Empress pursed her lips, a faint premonition in her heart that if this perfect transformation method were to spread, the entire Spirit BeastWorld would likely undergo earth-shattering changes.
She wondered how many Spirit Beasts stuck at a Bottleneck or fearing the Heavenly Tribulation would choose to walk this path, transform into humans, and then integrate into human society, and she didn't know if it would be a blessing or a curse.
She sighed slightly in her heart, but this thought flashed by, and the Ice Empress pouted, not continuing to think about it.
Although it sounded a bit too selfish, but... what did the fate of other Spirit Beasts have to do with her?
Anyway, this guy would keep his promise to the Snow Empress and protect the Extreme North Land and all the living beings in the Extreme North Land well.
Keeping her hometown and people safe and sound, she couldn't be bothered to care even if other places were turned upside down.
Thinking of this, the Ice Empress's expression became complicated again; this guy seemed to always take his promise to the Snow Empress very seriously.
Looking at the young man in front of her, an inexplicable sourness and irritability welled up in her heart; she was very unhappy now.
However, she didn't know whether she was unhappy with the Snow Empress or with this guy in front of her.
The Ice Empress's thoughts were extremely conflicted.
Kong Mingan, who had been observing the Ice Empress's spirit ring for a moment, withdrew his gaze and said slowly:
"The 'soul points' system is being implemented smoothly, and Energy is being collected according to plan."
"Once the general Cultivation method for the 'star ring' is perfected, you can condense your own 'star ring'. By then, the Energy collected by the Chamber of Commerce will be prioritized for your Cultivation, allowing you to quickly complete the Cultivation of the first two 'star rings'."
"Understood," the Ice Empress replied.
Kong Mingan nodded and continued: "Then, after a while, you and the Snow Empress should swap places."
"The Snow Empress's four 'star rings' have reached Perfection, and the Energy required for the follow-up is too vast, and there is currently no source of Energy, so she can come back to protect me again."
"And you can return to the Extreme North Land to Cultivate with focus, and I can continue to use the Snow Empress as a template to deduce the subsequent possible paths for the 'star ring'."
"No!"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted resolutely by the Ice Empress.
Kong Mingan looked at her in confusion, but saw the Ice Empress pause slightly, only to grit her teeth, her tone exceptionally firm: "I want to be with the Snow Empress!"
"...But this way, your Cultivation efficiency might be quite a bit lower."
"I don't care!" The Ice Empress snorted coldly and turned her head away, her voice carrying an unquestionable stubbornness.
"Wherever the Snow Empress is, I am there! Since the Snow Empress wants to stay by your side, then I naturally must be by your side!"
Kong Mingan looked at her in silence for a few seconds, and finally nodded with a hint of helplessness:
"Fine. As you wish."
Seeing Kong Mingan agree, the Ice Empress hummed softly, turned her head away, and struck a victor's pose. Kong Mingan did not notice that at the moment she turned around, her delicate hand had involuntarily gripped her skirt tightly.
Kong Mingan, on the side, was multitasking; half his attention was on the "Ling Shu Network" to record the Ice Empress's data, while the other half was letting his mind wander.
Regarding the Ice Empress's desire to stay, Kong Mingan did not have much resistance; after all, there was not much difference between having one person by his side and two.
Furthermore, with the Snow Empress present, the Ice Empress might be more well-behaved and obedient, at least not like now, where she would flare up and use violence from time to time. It could also be considered an extra layer of insurance for his safety.
The only problem was the bi-weekly contract between him and Zhang Lexuan.
The Ice Empress wouldn't be able to see the problem, and even if she felt something was wrong, given her personality, she would probably be too lazy to think about it and would forget it after a while.
But if it were the Snow Empress...
She would be discovered, right? She would definitely be discovered, right?
What should be done then?
