Huo Yuhao glanced at Bingdi. The Ice Emperor was surprisingly not arguing with him, which Huo Yuhao found very satisfying. "Very good. Since you're being so understanding, Bingdi, I can help you find a divine beast-level male scorpion in the future."
"Huo, Yu, Hao, you're dead!" Bingdi was instantly furious. She'd just spoken up for Huo Yuhao, but now this! She was about to attack when Huo Yuhao grabbed her. She struggled, but found his palm was covered in mental power; there was no escaping.
"Little… oh no, Big Brother, for my sake, even if you can't give your brother a chance, you can't push my Bing'er to someone else! My happiness!"
Huo Yuhao's joke not only enraged Bingdi, but also made Tianmeng unable to sit still. The miniature version of the big worm appeared on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, jumping around anxiously, which, combined with its chubby body, looked a bit comical.
Huo Yuhao couldn't be bothered with it. Usually, it was "Little Brother," but now it was "Big Brother" when it needed something. How realistic.
He brought Bingdi closer, partly because he found the tiny person amusing, with her little arms and legs, so cute and clumsy.
On the other hand, it was a form of revenge. Huo Yuhao still remembered when they first met, Bingdi had called him an ant in front of Tianmeng.
Although he was indeed a weakling back then, he was still annoyed. Now, the tables had turned. Frankly, bullying the second of the Three Great Kings of the Extreme North felt pretty good.
However, as he watched, Huo Yuhao suddenly froze. Sparkling tears welled up in Bingdi's eyes. Bingdi was actually... crying?
Huo Yuhao was stunned, and then quickly released his grip. "Bingdi, I..." Huo Yuhao was at a loss. He didn't know how to comfort people, and Bingdi shouldn't be that fragile, right?
"Huo Yuhao, you just know how to bully me," Bingdi said loudly, with big tears streaming down her cheeks. After shouting, Bingdi plunged directly into the Sea of Consciousness.
"Uh..." Huo Yuhao was embarrassed and didn't know what to do. He glanced at Xuedi, worried that she might help Bingdi get revenge, which wouldn't be good.
The latter rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "Hurry up and go see." Actually, Xuedi didn't know why Bingdi had such a big reaction. Although Huo Yuhao's actions just now were a little disrespectful, it shouldn't have caused Bingdi to react like this, given her personality.
Huo Yuhao nodded awkwardly, his consciousness sinking into the Sea of Consciousness.
"I'm coming too." Tianmeng let out a strange cry and was about to dive into the Sea of Consciousness like Bingdi, but he failed and was bounced away.
He landed on the ground in a sorry state, somewhat bewildered. "Hey, what do you mean, kid? Why won't you let me in?"
Huo Yuhao didn't answer him. Seriously, would he let anyone see him apologizing, such a humiliating thing?
Entering the Sea of Consciousness, he saw Bingdi not far away, sitting on the ground with her knees drawn up to her chest, her head buried between her legs. The Bingdi of this moment didn't have her usual cold and arrogant aura, but instead gave off a feeling of weakness and vulnerability.
"I'm sorry, Bingdi. I was wrong before. I didn't consider your feelings."
Huo Yuhao had also realized it. After all, she was once one of the Three Great Kings of the Extreme North. It was indeed a bit rude of him to grab her like a little chick, especially in front of Tianmeng and Xuedi.
"Go away. I don't want to see you." Bingdi didn't raise her head, and her voice was a bit choked with sobs, indicating her grievance.
Huo Yuhao scratched his head in embarrassment, feeling that Bingdi was a bit abnormal today. Logically speaking, even if she lost face, it shouldn't be this serious, right?
Not knowing what to do, Huo Yuhao could only sit down next to Bingdi. However, she moved to the side, distancing herself from him.
This made the embarrassment on Huo Yuhao's face even thicker, and he didn't know what to say.
...
Whoosh, bang, whoosh, whoosh, bang!
After a long silence, a strange sound broke the quiet. Bingdi, curious, looked up. The environment had completely changed. She was now in a boundless sea of flowers, bursting with color and vying for attention.

A bright moon hung in the sky, dotted with stars. One by one, points of light rose from the distance, then exploded, transforming into fireworks of different colors with a bang.
"How beautiful." The fireworks reflected in Bingdi's eyes, her amber eyes speckled with color.
"These are called fireworks. Humans set them off during special festivals for entertainment and celebration. How are you feeling now?" Huo Yuhao explained at the right moment.
Hmph!
Bingdi snorted coldly, turning her head in a show of petulance. But she quickly turned back, "Do you really want me to find a male scorpion?"
"Aren't you angry because of that?"
Bingdi didn't say anything, just stared at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao's expression froze then shifted rapidly as he watched. He might not be the most eloquent, but he wasn't stupid. Bingdi's behavior made Huo Yuhao vaguely understand something.
Could it be that they'd bickered their way into affection?
Huo Yuhao's expression changed again and again. He felt that things were getting a bit troublesome. If it were someone else, he could easily avoid them if he didn't want to get involved. Take Tang Ya, for example. When Huo Yuhao realized that they were developing an inappropriate intimacy, he began to distance himself automatically. After the Immortal Herbs transaction, they wouldn't have much interaction.
Huo Yuhao wouldn't give women like Princess Jiujiu, who had special political purposes, a chance to get close to him. He was the young sect master, a Super Douluo's closed-door disciple, and the sect's heir. With the difference in status, it would only take a word to deal with those people.
But Bingdi was different. Bingdi was his Soul Ring, always by his side. Crucially, Bingdi was also Tianmeng's sweetheart. As the saying goes, a brother's wife... well, no, it's not to be trifled with. Huo Yuhao felt a little ashamed. He felt like he was hitting on his brother's girlfriend while his brother was away.
Seeing his prolonged silence, Bingdi's eyes dimmed. "Do you... really hate Soul Beasts?"
Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback, then said, "There's no such thing as hating or not hating. Human Soul Masters need Soul Rings to cultivate and improve. Hunting Soul Beasts, Soul Beasts naturally fight back. Neither side is wrong. What's wrong is this distorted world. As a Soul Master, it's natural to be opposed to Soul Beasts."
"Isn't there supposed to be a distinction between humans and beasts?" Bingdi asked calmly after listening.
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao fell silent. He hadn't expected Bingdi to be so direct; it was practically a declaration.
In truth, Huo Yuhao was indeed a little uncomfortable. If it were a humanoid spirit like Xuedi, it would be fine, but Bingdi's true form was, after all, a scorpion.
Seeing Huo Yuhao speechless again, Bingdi turned away, no longer looking at him. "Let's let this matter drop for today. You can leave now, but I hope there won't be a next time."
As a Soul Beast overlord, she wasn't good with words. She had laid bare her feelings, yet received no response. Her pride prevented her from being clingy.
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, his form slowly dissipating.
Sensing that the person had left, Bingdi turned back, scratching her hair in annoyance. But then she thought that this was Huo Yuhao's domain, and every move she made wouldn't escape his notice. The prideful Bingdi immediately lowered her hands, returning to her usual indifference.
"Xuedi, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave," Huo Yuhao said to Xuedi after leaving the Sea of Consciousness.
"If you're going to condense your Soul Core, you might as well do it here. The environment of the Extreme North is beneficial to you. Of course, if you're worried about me, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
Huo Yuhao didn't respond. Of course, Xuedi wouldn't do anything to him. Or rather, if Xuedi really wanted to attack him, it wouldn't be so troublesome. Thinking about the environment here, Huo Yuhao also felt it was quite suitable. Moreover, he would have to take Xuedi to a place later, so he nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you."
