Xiong Jun was about to speak, but the Snow Empress cut him off, saying, "Xiong Jun, is it? I advise you to behave yourself, otherwise, even your so-called master might not be able to save your claws."
"???"
"Hahaha—"
When Xiong Jun heard the Snow Empress's words, he laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, bending over backward with laughter. Even Chi Wang and the other beasts couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Although they didn't know Li Qing's exact strength, they could sense that he was still just a mortal.
A mortal, even if he was a Level 99 Titled Douluo, so what? Not to mention their master, even Di Tian and Xiong Jun could handle him. How could they not laugh?
They truly couldn't hold it in.
The Snow Empress's expression remained unchanged, as if the mockery wasn't directed at her. The Titan Snow Demon King looked at them with a hint of pity.
And the Ice Empress curved her lips into a smile.
Even Chen Xin and Gu Rong, who had been somewhat flustered just moments before, couldn't help but show a trace of a smile.
Although they weren't clear about the strength of the other party's master, according to Li Qing's earlier meaning, at most, he could barely compare to the God who had descended before.
The Li Qing they knew never did anything without confidence. The fact that he dared to come here meant he had the backing to not fear the other party's master.

"Xiong Jun, forget it. He is, after all, a guest invited by our master."
Although Bi Ji was disdainful of what the Snow Empress said, she still spoke to stop Xiong Jun. After all, he was invited by their master, and she wouldn't dare let Xiong Jun act recklessly.
"Ah!"
Xiong Jun sneered and turned to leave.
He naturally understood the reasoning Bi Ji spoke of. From beginning to end, he had no intention of fighting the Snow Empress and the others; he merely wanted to tease them a bit.
Under Di Tian's lead, Li Qing entered a real cave.
Inside the cave was a slanted passage leading underground, both wide and high exceeding three meters. Every ten meters on the walls, a luminous pearl was embedded, illuminating the entire passage.
After walking five hundred meters, a three-way intersection appeared. Di Tian chose the middle path to continue descending.
Li Qing secretly wondered if that unlucky fellow, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, had been caught. If he had, he should be at the end of one of the other two passages.
Soon, Li Qing saw Gu Yuena.
At the end of the passage was a huge grotto. In the center of the grotto was a large circular stone bed, covered with thick white beast fur.
Gu Yuena was propped up, lying on her side on it.
Her waterfall-like silver hair cascaded freely onto the beast fur, and a pair of purple eyes gazed at Li Qing. A tight-fitting purple dress showcased her curvaceous figure perfectly.
Her beauty was beyond words; no vocabulary could adequately express it.
Even just lying on the bed, she exuded a noble, regal aura, like a high and mighty Empress, making people dare not look directly at her.
At any rate, Di Tian dared not.
Li Qing openly scrutinized her from head to toe, not even sparing her sensitive areas, but there was no lust in his eyes, only pure appreciation.
Gu Yuena's beauty gave him a feeling of pleasure. Although Li Qing's unbridled gaze made Gu Yuena a little uncomfortable, she didn't say much, because his gaze was very clear, making people not dislike it.
Everyone has a love for beauty, after all.
"You go down first."
"Yes, Master!"
Di Tian didn't ask further. After saluting, he turned and left, never looking directly at Gu Yuena from beginning to end.
Li Qing boldly teased, "You could have met me outside, but you insisted on having him bring me to your boudoir, and you meet me in this pose. You wouldn't happen to be craving my body, would you?"
Gu Yuena: "???"
Good heavens, I'm craving your body? Do you want to hear what you're saying?
However, Gu Yuena didn't lose her composure. Instead, she extended her right hand, gently stroking her thigh, then moving upwards, all while showing a seductive expression.
"If you can solve my problem, then it might not be impossible."
Li Qing stepped forward, approaching Gu Yuena step by step. His faint footsteps echoed in the grotto, each step seemingly landing on Gu Yuena's heart.
Although she was panicking internally, her expression remained calm.
Li Qing came to the bedside, sat down, and looked at her with a smile, saying, "You said this, don't regret it."
Gu Yuena's expression gradually turned serious: "Can you really solve it?"
Li Qing said, "Destruction, Life, and Sea God are watching this place. Their absence, and your continued existence, are the best proof. It just depends on whether you are willing to pay the price."
Gu Yuena abruptly sat up, but the next second she lay back down again.
Learning that two God Kings and a Level 1 God were watching this place, she was indeed somewhat frightened, but after she reacted, she actually breathed a sigh of relief.
If it was truly as the other party said.
If Destruction and the others were indeed watching here and didn't descend immediately after discovering her, it meant that the other party truly might have the ability to solve her problem.
Of course, it was also possible that the other party was lying, but this possibility was not great.
How could a mortal know which Gods existed in the God Realm? Not only could the other party call out the names of three Gods, but they didn't even use an honorific, which showed they must have some confidence.
"How can I trust you?"
The moment Gu Yuena's voice fell, three terrifyingly powerful auras descended into the grotto.
"Whoosh!"
Gu Yuena's face turned pale. She immediately tore open space, intending to escape, but the spatial portal that had just opened was forcibly smoothed out the next second.
The three auras also receded with it.
"Master!"
Di Tian had not gone far. After sensing the three terrifyingly powerful auras, he not only wasn't afraid but rushed into the grotto at the first moment, staring at Li Qing with cold eyes.
Gu Yuena sharply ordered, "Get out!"
Di Tian clenched his fists, glared fiercely at Li Qing, and then retreated unwillingly.
Li Qing glanced at Gu Yuena, only to see that she was already drenched in sweat from fright, her long dress clinging tightly to her skin, making her look extremely alluring.
"Hoo—"
Gu Yuena let out a heavy breath, and a hint of resentment emerged in her eyes as she looked at Li Qing again: "I just asked casually, you don't have to scare me like that, do you?"
Li Qing reached out and said, "This wasn't my idea."
"Only a ghost would believe you."
Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him and asked, "So, the price is to become your woman?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qing, feeling playful, asked with a smile, "Then are you willing?"
Willing?
The God Realm had already discovered her. If she wasn't willing, what else could she do? Fight to the death with the God Realm? From the moment Li Qing stepped into this place, she had no other retreat.
However, he could summon two God Kings and a Level 1 God with a single thought, which showed his extraordinary nature. Becoming his woman didn't seem like a loss.
There was just one thing she couldn't figure out: would the other party truly be so naive as to think that gaining her would mean truly controlling her? Wasn't he afraid she would secretly plot against him?
