Chapter 311 Forceful Suppression? The Snow Empress's Choice?
The next second, Tang Hao's already vast soul power surged again, the air seemed to freeze, and the heavy pressure made Niu Gao and Bai He involuntarily take a half step back.
Tang Hao stepped forward, his towering figure radiating an unparalleled sense of oppression. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared directly at Yang Wudi, his voice cold and filled with undeniable authority as he said:
"Yang Wudi! Remember your place!"
"Your Po clan was once merely an affiliated clan of my Haotian Sect, relying on the sect's favor to survive and thrive! The sect bestowed upon you its heritage and protected your development; this is an act of kindness!"
"The sect had its own difficulties and considerations when it closed its gates back then, and sacrifices were inevitable! You only see the losses of your Po clan, but have you ever thought about how much pressure and sacrifice the sect itself endured? My father, the former sect leader of the Haotian Sect, was such a heroic figure, yet he still died with resentment in his heart! My wife was forced to sacrifice herself, and I was hunted down across the entire continent—weren't those sacrifices too?!"
He pointed at Yang Wudi, his tone carrying a condescending rebuke.
"Now, I have come in person on behalf of the sect, setting aside past grievances, to give you a chance to return to the sect, share in its glory, and avenge your grievances! Instead of showing gratitude and remembering our past friendship, you have come here to spout nonsense, even going so far as to claim you are defecting to the Spirit Hall?! You are simply ignorant of your own limitations and utterly ungrateful!"
The moment the words fell, Tang Hao's soul power surged violently!
"boom!"
A visible shockwave of soul power spread out from him.
This energy ripple did not harm anyone, but it carried unparalleled domineering power and crashed hard into Yang Wudi's Soul-Breaking Spear, which was still pointing at him!
"clang--!"
Yang Wudi felt an overwhelming force that he could not resist coming from the gun. His tiger's mouth trembled violently, and his entire arm went numb. The Soul-Breaking Spear, which was connected to his mind, was actually knocked out of his hand and flew backward by this pure force.
Then, with a "do" sound.
It was deeply embedded in the wall on one side of the hall, the butt of the gun still trembling incessantly!
Yang Wudi himself was pushed back several steps by the force of the impact before being supported by the white crane behind him. His face was deathly pale, filled with shock and anger!
Tang Hao didn't even glance at the Broken Soul Spear nailed to the wall. He simply looked down coldly at the disheveled Yang Wudi and said in a cold voice, "Yang Wudi, I'll give you a few days to think things through."
"If you are sensible and willing to return to the Haotian Sect, I can, on behalf of the sect, wipe the slate clean of the past. The Po Clan remains the Haotian Sect's sharpest spear."
"If you remain stubborn..."
"Then go and join the Spirit Hall if you wish. However, the price will be that you, and your ungrateful Broken Clan, will cease to exist."
"After all, I have an irreconcilable hatred for the Spirit Hall. Anyone who dares to side with the Spirit Hall is my mortal enemy! I, Tang Hao, mean what I say!"
After saying that, he stopped looking at Yang Wudi, who was pale and trembling, and also at Niu Gao and Bai He, whose expressions were complicated. He simply nodded slightly to Titan.
He then turned around and walked heavily out of the hall.
…………
Meanwhile, in the far north.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's explanation of the wisdom soul ring and the sharing of immortality with godhood briefly shook the hearts of the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, allowing them to see unprecedented possibilities.
But his pride as the king of the far north and his deep-seated distrust of humanity...
It still makes it difficult for them to make such a disruptive decision immediately.
The Snow Emperor remained silent, the icy blue light in her eyes slowly shifting, as if she were weighing the pros and cons, or perhaps resisting this almost submissive proposal.
Although Hyotei's eyes wavered even more, they gritted their teeth and refused to give in easily.
Seeing that neither pressure nor persuasion seemed to have succeeded in subduing the two rulers of the far north, the will belonging to Tang Chuan within the dragon-transformed giant, mixed with a trace of the residual power of Emperor Tian, said in a deep voice:
"snort."
"It seems that kind words of advice are ultimately useless."
The next second, the dragon-transformed giant slowly raised its huge claw, covered with black dragon scales and flowing with dark gold light, and then pointed it at the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress.
"Since you are unmoved by immortality and still yearn for the illusory throne in this far north and your destined demise... then I have no choice but to turn you into spirit rings."
"However, by then, you will have completely lost your intelligence, leaving only the most primitive energy and fragments of your remnants, becoming an unknowing and unconscious part of my power."
As the words fell, the black dragon claw tightened slightly, and the surrounding black light grew even more intense, repelling all ice and snow elements and bringing an even deeper sense of oppression.
"On one side, there are those who follow me, retain their consciousness and wisdom, ascend the divine ladder together, and enjoy eternity."
"On the other side, they are transformed into ignorant soul rings, or their souls are completely scattered, their hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation gone to waste, becoming part of this ice and snow, leaving no trace."
"What's more important, what should we do... Snow Empress, Ice Empress, have you thought it through?"
In the end, the raised dragon claw did not retract; instead, it carried an even more terrifying aura and power, slowly pressing down on the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress once again!
The immense, abyss-like pressure, like a tangible shackle, instantly enveloped the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress!
Even though they were the emperors of the far north, they were powerless against this terrifying being who combined a portion of the Emperor's power, the power of the exploding ring, and the spiritual essence of a million years.
"Damn it, I'll fight you to the death!"
Immediately, Hyotei let out a muffled groan of resentment, putting up a desperate resistance.
Faced with absolute power suppression and a clear choice between life and death, the last trace of hesitation and struggle in Xue Di's icy blue eyes was finally replaced by a cold rationality.
She slowly raised her hand, not to retaliate, but to signal Hyotei to calm down.
The ethereal voice rang out again, but it lacked the absolute indifference of before, and instead carried a hint of resigned calm: "You mean... I seem to have no other choice."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan's dragon claw stopped in mid-air, and he responded in a low voice:
What do you think?
"Now, I'm not going to discuss this with you anymore."
At this moment, the atmosphere had become extremely tense, and it seemed that a suppression that might result in mutual destruction or at least severely damage the vitality of the far north was about to erupt.
"Bingbing! Snow Empress! Please believe me just this once!"
Tianmeng Bingcan's anxious voice rang out again, filled with earnestness. He could naturally see the hesitation of the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, and said in a deep voice:
"By the God of Ice, I, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, swear in the name of ice."
"If I deceived Hyotei and Yuki-tei by failing to help them achieve their spiritual essence and thus create a Wisdom Soul Ring, I wish that everything belonging to Hyotei would be taken away from me."
This oath doesn't sound like much to humans.
But Hyotei and Yukiteru don't think so.
In the far north, this is the most solemn oath a soul beast can make.
Time seemed to be stretched out, each second feeling like an eternity.
The Snow Empress slowly raised her head. In her icy blue eyes, the shadow of a dark dragon was reflected, as were the swirling snowflakes and the far northern territory she had ruled for hundreds of thousands of years.
Pride, resentment, caution, a yearning for eternity, a fear of death... countless emotions intertwined and collided in her eyes like an ice storm.
In the end, all the turmoil subsided into a bottomless, icy silence.
She seemed to see the narrow path that appeared to be submission but could actually lead to eternal life, and she also saw the slowly closing door ahead, representing utter annihilation and death.
Faced with this absolute power and a clear choice between life and death.
As the ruler of the far north, she finally overcame her last hesitation.
Gently closing her eyes, Xue Di's long silver eyelashes trembled slightly, like butterfly wings covered in snow. When she opened them again, only an almost transparent calm remained in her eyes.
The next second, Xue Di's ethereal voice rang out clearly.
It wasn't large, yet it seemed to pierce through all the noise of the wind and snow, and also through that heavy oppressive force.
"That's enough."
"I seem to have no other choice, so I'll take this gamble!"
"This human Soul Master, at such a young age, has already reached such a level of strength, and is accompanied by Di Tian and the Imperial Beast. He is truly the chosen one of the Douluo Continent!"
"It's not impossible for me to reach that level in the future!"
Please vote for me!
