Chapter 803 I, the Emperor, Will Take His Place
"A soul spirit? Could it be becoming a human's soul ring!?"
"You are human!"
The Snow Wolf King became agitated and tried to get up, but was held down by the Snow Empress.
"This kid isn't human, don't get agitated," Xue Di explained.
"Listen carefully, becoming a spirit is not the same as having spirit rings, becoming an existence like me, not those rings."
Hearing the Snow Empress's words, the Snow Wolf King calmed down a little.
"Tell me completely what a soul is!" the Snow Wolf King asked.
Ye Nanxiao thought for a moment and said, "You can think of a soul as something that is one with me, living inside my body, until the day I ascend to godhood, when there will be a way to separate us again and become separate individuals once more."
Snow Empress beckoned to Bajiao, who was staring at Old Bai, and called Bajiao over. Facing Snow Wolf King, she said, "We are Xiao'er's souls. Apart from merging with the original body, there is no difference from before. Bajiao has even gained the ability to walk. Oh, right, we just can't leave Xiao'er too far away."
"If Lao Bai disagrees, we won't force him. The main purpose of this trip is simply to ask for Lao Bai's opinion."
The Snow Wolf King calmly looked at the Snow Empress. "Do you have other purposes?"
"I'm taking my wife back to her parents' house for a visit," Ye Nanxiao said, putting away his tools.
"Wife!?" The Snow Wolf King raised its head forward, its brow muscles furrowed into a figure eight, and its mouth formed a howling shape, the sound coming from high to low.
Ye Nanxiao now understands why Lao Bai sometimes acts like a husky; it's because the Snow Wolf King looks a lot like one too—it's hereditary in this family.
The Snow Wolf King slapped the ground with its intact paws, its wolf head displaying a vivid expression of shock. "You actually associate with a soul beast... Oh right, you don't seem to be human."
Upon hearing this, Xue Di covered her mouth and turned her head away, her shoulders shaking. Lao Bai lay on the ground, laughing like a husky. Ba Jiao looked puzzled. He had just arrived. What were these people talking about?
Ye Nanxiao blinked and rubbed his temples. The Snow Wolf King's words seemed to make no big deal out of it, except that it sounded like he was cursing Yin.
"Ahem, anyway, I will ask Lao Bai for his opinion. If Lao Bai disagrees, I will leave and find another partner," Ye Nanxiao said.
He was prepared for Old Bai to refuse him when he came.
The Snow Wolf King scratched the fur on its chin with its paw, lost in thought.
The Fragrant Silk Fairy Elixir continues to cleanse the poison, but the Snow Wolf King can no longer feel the pain.
This could be bad news.
The Snow Wolf King glanced at its right forelimb. The wound on it had begun to heal and scab over. Although its blood and energy were slowly recovering under the nourishment, it was like a pile of loose sand, showing signs of collapse at any moment. The key problem was that while the exterior was recovering, the internal damage had been done and there seemed to be no sign of recovery.
Ye Nanxiao noticed the Snow Wolf King's unusual behavior, stepped forward, grasped the Snow Wolf King's right paw, and gently examined it.
"No need for further examination. I know my right claw is beyond repair, along with my body." The Snow Wolf King placed its head on Ye Nanxiao's head.
"Before I die, could I please have a fox to lean on?"
The Snow Wolf King was well aware of its own body. It had previously been attacked by poachers, put into a ring-shaped animal trap, and fled here, only to encounter the warlike Explosive Bone Beast clan.
Dragging its heavily injured body to cover the rear, the Snow Wolf King's physical potential had already been exhausted, even overdrawing its lifespan, leading to the dissipation of its blood energy.
With its bone marrow destroyed and internal organs broken and displaced, the Snow Wolf King could no longer restore its blood and energy on its own. Like a leaky bag, no matter how much blood and energy it replenished, its body could not be retained. In the end, it would only slowly dissipate its blood and energy and die once again.
"Little dog, your request is a bit too much! I'm still here!" Snow Empress grabbed Snow Wolf King by the scruff of its neck and lifted its head up.
"Your Majesty, will you refuse Little Wolf's last request?" The Snow Wolf King was not afraid of the Snow Empress's imperial might, and slapped the ground with its paws.
Ye Nanxiao beckoned to Lao Bai, "Lao Bai, come here and be your sister's pillow."
"I still have a few medicinal herbs here that can replenish qi and blood. If you're lucky, you might live for quite a while, considering how Old Bai took care of me before."
Ye Nanxiao took out several vermilion immortal herbs from his storage ring and placed them on the ground. Then, he led Xue Di and Bajiao away.
"Old Bai, see you next time."
Since the Snow Wolf King had made the choice for Old Bai, Ye Nanxiao didn't plan to stay any longer; he was in a bit of a hurry.
The Snow Wolf King looked at the few immortal herbs on the ground, then at Ye Nanxiao who had left, and finally his gaze fell on the Snow Emperor.
As the ruler of the far north, he willingly became the soul of that fox.
Since I might have to rely on these magical herbs to stay alive forever, becoming a sick wolf, I might as well…
"Wait, fox!"
Ye Nanxiao turned around upon hearing the sound.
Ye Nanxiao stopped and turned to look at the Snow Wolf King.
"I, the Emperor, will take my brother's place and become your spirit," the Snow Wolf Emperor said calmly.
"Hmm?" Ye Nanxiao was somewhat surprised. The Snow Wolf King was not only a 100,000-year-old soul beast, but also the alpha wolf of the snow wolves. Why would it want to become his soul spirit?
Logically speaking, the alpha wolf is the most important and indispensable position in a wolf pack.
"I know you have doubts, but you should know my situation. If it weren't for your immortal herb, how long could I live?" The Snow Wolf King looked down at his right paw.
Its once proud claws were now limp and powerless, like a ball of cotton.
Forget about fighting, even walking is affected.
"You can understand. I swapped places with my brother. The wolf pack needs a leader, a leader who can lead them to continue living in this icy land, not a leader who lies on the hay waiting to die." After saying this, the Snow Wolf King licked his right paw.
Ye Nanxiao turned and exchanged a glance with Xue Di, who nodded.
"Take it." Xue Di reached out and pushed Ye Nanxiao forward.
"The pride of a king will only accompany him to the end of battle; it will not slowly fade away."
Wolves are proud, and when they realize their end is near, they will leave the pack alone to find a quiet and suitable place to await death.
The Snow Empress could understand the Snow Wolf King's decision.
Ye Nanxiao slowly walked up to the Snow Wolf King, draped his body over the Snow Wolf King's intact left foreleg, and asked, "Have you thought it through? If you follow me, you will leave the far north, leave the wolf pack you are familiar with, and also Old White."
The Snow Wolf King scoffed, "These wolf cubs will have to face the cruelty of this icy land sooner or later. If they can't, then they'll only have death to await. Without me, a new king will naturally lead them to continue conquering this icy land. As for my brother..."
With that, the Snow Wolf King turned to look at Old White, slamming its left paw hard on the ground. "You brat! Come here!"
The latest novel is first published here!
Old Bai, who had been quietly playing the role of a nobody, was startled by the roar of the Snow Wolf King and walked over, shrinking back.
"Huh?"
What are you doing?
Old Bai sat obediently, looking at his sister.
Without any hesitation, the Snow Wolf King slapped Old White on the head with its paw. "From now on, you will be the king of all races."
"Of all the wolf packs, yours is second only to mine. I believe you can handle the other wolf kings."
"Waaah~"
Old Bai lowered his head and silently responded.
Although it looks simple-minded, it understands what this handover means.
Ye Nanxiao quietly watched the Snow Wolf King "lecturing" Old Bai. In the world of soul beasts, there are few partings, but most soul beasts are like people who meet and part. This meeting may be the last time.
"Old Bai's cultivation has reached 60,000 years, which should be enough to suppress the wolf kings of other wolf packs and take over the prestige of the Snow Wolf King," the Snow Emperor said as she floated to Ye Nanxiao's side.
"There are more than a dozen wolf packs of varying sizes, which means there are more than a dozen wolf kings. But they are all called kings, so why not wolf emperors or wolf kings?" Ye Nanxiao asked curiously.
"So that means replacing me as the ruler of the far north? I didn't expect you to have such great ambitions, Xiao'er!" Xue Di reached out and grabbed Ye Nanxiao's ear.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Didn't you say that the far north was your dowry?!" Ye Nanxiao stood on tiptoe, trying to restore his ear to its original state.
"Hmm, really? Did I say that? Then pretend I did, but I'm still going to pull your ear!" Xue Di let go and leaned against Ye Nanxiao.
As Ye Nanxiao embraced Xue Di, he suddenly gained a new understanding of the saying, "Don't reason with women; melt them with passionate love."
The Snow Wolf King lectured Old White for a full hour before letting him go.
Old Bai clutched his head and lay on the ground. Even the once majestic snow wolf king was suppressed by his bloodline when facing his own sister.
"I'll go and say a few more words to those wolf cubs outside. Without their help, this husky can't hold onto his throne," the Snow Wolf King said to Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao nodded. "Of course, this is your tribe, but Old Bai isn't that weak, is he? I'll leave him some immortal herbs to improve his strength."
During the hour-long lecture by the Snow Wolf King, Lao Bai was truly scolded into being called a "silly husky" by the Snow Wolf King, who directly used Ye Nanxiao's nickname for Lao Bai.
As the Snow Wolf King emerged from the cave, the pack of wolves outside immediately surrounded him.
"You bunch of wolf cubs! Listen up! My brother is your next emperor! You all better follow me!"
Ye Nanxiao held Xue Di in his arms, with Bajiao sitting on his left and Lao Bai lying on his right, quietly listening to the howling wolves outside the cave.
They all knew that it was the wolf pack bidding farewell to their king.
"Old Bai, are you ready to be the king?" Ye Nanxiao stroked the hair on the back of Old Bai's neck.
Old Bai let out a weak "howl," his beastly eyes glistening with tears.
"Just live well and cultivate, and I will bring your sister back," Ye Nanxiao comforted him.
At this moment, the Snow Wolf King entered amidst its howls, glanced at Old Bai, and said to Ye Nanxiao, "Let's begin."
"Not staying any longer?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Snow Wolf King shook his head slightly, walked up to Ye Nanxiao, lowered his head and bit Old Bai, "Let's begin, stop dawdling like a woman."
"it is good."
