[Tianmeng Iceworm never expected Huo Yuhao to be this hard to deal with.]
[Even after hearing news about a second martial soul, he still stayed this calm.]
[This immediately made Tianmeng anxious.]
Meanwhile—
In the rift between planes—
A group of soul masters, watching the scene playing on the screen, couldn't help bursting into laughter.
"Hahahaha! He's panicking, he's panicking! Someone's panicking!"
"Now it's Tianmeng Iceworm's turn to sweat!"
"This parallel-world Huo Yuhao isn't as gullible as the original-world Huo Yuhao! He must be totally lost now!"
"Serves him right. Who told him to trick people?"
The soul masters felt beyond satisfied.
After all, what Tianmeng Iceworm did was indeed pretty shady.
As a wisdom soul ring, he wasn't thinking about how to help his host.Instead, he was putting his host in danger for his own selfish desires.
So many soul masters in the plane rift had disliked him for a long time.
It's just that the original timeline's Huo Yuhao was honestly too naive and got played around by Tianmeng Iceworm.
But the Huo Yuhao of this parallel world was different.
With those petty little schemes, Tianmeng Iceworm couldn't fool him at all.
So watching Tianmeng Iceworm stumble now, the soul masters felt incredibly refreshed.
Even Bibi Dong couldn't help smiling:
"As expected of the man I have my eye on."
"He immediately saw through the holes in the story."
"That's exactly how it should be!"
Qian Renxue added:
"But this way, the parallel-world Huo Yuhao might lose his opportunity in the Extreme North."
"In the original timeline, although Huo Yuhao was toyed around by Tianmeng Iceworm, the outcome was good."
"The Ice Jade Scorpion's torso bone and the Ultimate Ice martial soul were extremely useful. Losing those two things would have a considerable impact on the parallel-world Huo Yuhao."
Bibi Dong shook her head."No rush. Let's watch a bit more."
"Tianmeng Iceworm probably won't give up easily. If he realizes he can't hide it anymore, he might reveal everything."
"Then we can see how the parallel-world Huo Yuhao reacts."
After saying that, the two continued watching the screen.
And inside the screen—
[Just as Bibi Dong said, Tianmeng Iceworm did not give up easily.]
[After all, it could be said he was never particularly loyal to Huo Yuhao to begin with.]
[The only reason he chose Huo Yuhao was because, at that time, he had no options left.]
[Tianmeng Iceworm knew Ice Emperor's end was approaching, and this was the only method that gave him a chance of developing feelings with her over time.]
[If he didn't stay inside Huo Yuhao for a long period, Ice Emperor would very likely never look at him. Even in the original story, after spending so long together, Ice Emperor still didn't acknowledge him.]
[It was only later, in the Qian Kun Wenqing Valley, where Tianmeng Iceworm received Tang San's reward and forcibly occupied Ice Emperor's body, that she was forced to submit.]
[So in Tianmeng Iceworm's heart, at least at this stage, conquering Ice Emperor has always been the top priority.]
[So when Huo Yuhao rejected him, he panicked and immediately started persuading him again:]
["Well yeah, I said that, but getting your second martial soul earlier is a good thing, right?"]
["And the later you wait, the more backward the ice-attributed soul rings you'll have to absorb. That'll definitely affect your future ring allocation."]
["So bro really recommends you absorb this ice-type soul ring first, so you can save your later slots."]
[Tianmeng Iceworm kept trying to persuade Huo Yuhao.]
[But his reasoning was extremely forced.]
[So after talking for half a day, he still couldn't convince Huo Yuhao.]
[Instead, it made Huo Yuhao feel that something was off.]
[Huo Yuhao smiled at Tianmeng Iceworm and asked, "Tianmeng-ge, why do I feel like you're very obsessed with getting me to the Extreme North?"]
[Tianmeng Iceworm laughed awkwardly: "Ah? Am I? Hahaha! No, right? Must be your imagination!"]
[Huo Yuhao smiled again: "Really? Tianmeng-ge, I don't like being lied to. Especially not by you—my wisdom soul ring. You shouldn't be hiding things from me, right?"]
[Huo Yuhao began probing him from different angles.]
[But Tianmeng still refused to admit anything. If he admitted it now, Huo Yuhao would know he'd been lying before. And more importantly—once Huo Yuhao learned how dangerous the trip was, he definitely wouldn't go. But Tianmeng had to make him go. He had waited too long for Ice Emperor.]
[So Tianmeng stubbornly insisted: "No no, you're overthinking."]
[Seeing Tianmeng Iceworm refuse to admit anything after several attempts—]
[Huo Yuhao lost interest. He snorted coldly and said, "Really? Well, forget it."]
["I already decided what I want for my third soul ring."]
["No need for you to worry."]
["I'll head to the Star Dou Forest to hunt soul beasts."]
[He didn't want to keep dragging the conversation out.]
[He had already given Tianmeng a chance to explain, but Tianmeng wasn't willing to be honest.]
[Huo Yuhao's patience had limits. After several chances, Tianmeng still insisted on lying, so Huo Yuhao didn't want to ask anymore.]
[So he spread his hands and concluded the matter right there.]
[And Tianmeng Iceworm was completely dumbfounded.]
[He now knew he absolutely couldn't hide it anymore. After spending so long inside Huo Yuhao, he had also developed a decent understanding of Huo Yuhao's personality.]
[So he knew he couldn't keep dragging it out.]
["Wait wait wait—fine, fine! Can't I just tell the truth?"]
[Tianmeng Iceworm exhaled helplessly, then honestly explained everything to Huo Yuhao.]
[This time, he didn't dare hide a single thing. He told Huo Yuhao everything about his history with Ice Emperor.]
[He also explained why he absolutely needed Huo Yuhao to go to the Extreme North, and exactly how dangerous it was.]
[He knew that if he kept hiding anything, he'd lose the last bit of chance he had. So he finally stopped pretending and laid everything out.]
