Chapter 471.3. Your Heart is Too Soft
Somethings wrong!
Huo Yuhao immediately descended after this simple observation before he flew towards the Heavenly Soul Empires rickety structures.
He used Spiritual Detection, and discovered that the Sun Moon Empires soldiers had long been standing guard in those old structures. There were manyrge machines inside those structures, and even though they werent as advanced as the machines that the Sun Moon Empire had just constructed, he could tell that they were targeted at the ground.
Resources yes, resources!
Huo Yuhao didnt go any closer. He was afraid to startle his enemies, and he was a little afraid of Ju Zi. Her devious trick had bested him once, and he had to be more careful in dealing with her.
If he couldnt tell what was going on with the Sun Moon Empire, could he not tell from the Dou Ling Empires side? Even though they were all bordering the Extreme North, their objectives were likely to be the same. He would naturally discover something if he went to observe the Dou Ling Empires barracks.
Huo Yuhao turned around as he contemted, and covered several dozen kilometers in the blink of an eye.
The Dou Ling Empire was clearly unaware that the Sun Moon Empires great army had arrived. In the end, they were separated by national borders even though they were so close to each other. The Dou Ling Empire was still upholding their agreement with the Heavenly Soul Empire, that they wouldnt send any scouts to conduct reconnaissance within the Heavenly Soul Empires territory.
Huo Yuhao was full of admiration for Ju Zi as he confirmed the barracks positions on this side. If the Sun Moon Empire hade any closer to this side, they would likely have been discovered by the Dou Ling Empire. The Sun Moon Empires current position was close to the other side, but they were somewhere where it wasnt easy to be discovered.
There was no doubt that, with the Sun Moon Empires Fire Phoenix Legion, they could destroy the Dou Ling Empires army without breaking a sweat. But if they did that, they would undoubtedly alert the Dou Ling Empire. Judging from the current situation, the Sun Moon Empire rather, Ju Zi evidently didnt want to be exposed so quickly.
Too cunning! Even though he didnt want to admit that that Ju Zi was one of the Sun Moon Empires generals, he had to admit that she was very talented in military matters. She was definitely superior to him.
Hended close to the Dou Ling Empires barracks, and his Spiritual Detection immediately stretched over the barracks like an enormous web.
He quickly discovered what he needed to know.
The Dou Ling Empires barracks had clearly been around for a rtively longer time. There was an army of two thousand standing guard on this side, and there were also many workers hard at work.
The surface of the earth was freezing. However, the temperature beneath the ground was a lot higher. There was no doubt that this was the publicly recognized location to work on, and they were excavating some minerals from beneath the ground.
Rare metals!
Huo Yuhao finally got his answer.
He hadnt expected that the Sun Moon Empires objective was a vein of rare metals that had appeared on the borders of the Extreme North!
The Dou Ling Empire was thirty kilometers from the Sun Moon Empires camp, and about fifty kilometers from the Heavenly Soul Empires old barracks.
There was no doubt that the Heavenly Soul Empire was originally mining here as well. This meant that the underground mine could possibly stretch out fifty kilometers. How abundant did those rare metals have to be? It was no wonder that the empress, Ju Zi, would venture out in person. The resources here were equally important to the Sun Moon Empire. They were very advanced in soul tools, but crafting soul tools, especially high-level ones, had an equally heavy requirement for materials.
Huo Yuhaos eyes were opened, and he finally understood the Sun Moon Empires objective.
No, I cannot let them seed, no matter what. If the Sun Moon Empire manages to obtain the incrediblyrge amounts of rare metals here to support them, who knows how many more soul tools they can craft to use against the Douluo Continents three empires? I have to find a way to ruin her n.
However, Huo Yuhao was no longer so worried when he discovered Ju Zis n. The reason was simple mining a mineral vein like this required a lot of human and materialbor. They couldnt achieve anything overnight. The Sun Moon Empire had to mine over a long period of time. Ju Zi and the others should first be establishing a base for excavation before they would start as quickly as possible so that they could transport the rare metals back to the Sun Moon Empire.
Since that was the case, he had a chance.
A cold grin appeared on Huo Yuhaos face. I cant deal with the Sun Moon Empires army by myself, but just as the Snow Empress said, we are in the Extreme North. This was the Snow Empress, the Ice Empress, and the Skydream Iceworms old home.
Without discussing the great boost in strength for someone who possessed an Ultimate Ice martial soul, this was the world that the Snow Empress had ruled over a long time ago!
The Snow Empress status in the Extreme North was like the Beast Gods status in the Great Star Dou Forest.
Snow Empress, Ice Empress. Huo Yuhao channeled his thoughts and summoned the two empresses.
Two lights flickered as the Ice Empress and the Snow empress emerged from his body at the same time.
Ever since they came across the Manifold Mysterious Ice Essence, the two empresses had been integrating with the ice essence, and their origin powers were now a lot stronger than before. Even though they were still energy bodies, their forms were no different from material forms when they emerged from Huo Yuhao this time.
The Ice Empress blushed faintly as she saw Huo Yuhao. This was the first time that she was facing him after she had revealed her true emotions when the Snow Empress provoked her.
Huo Yuhao naturally wouldnt tease her at a time like this. He lowered his voice and said, Ice Empress, Snow Empress I have figured out the Sun Moon Empires objective. Theyre trying to extract the rare metals here. How do we destroy their operation so that they cant take these resources away?
The Ice Empress resolved her embarrassment as she rushed to speak. Isnt that simple? Well chase them all away, and then well extract it for ourselves.
Huo Yuhaos facial muscles spasmed as he watched her speak so casually. He thought to himself, everyone who is in love seems to be blinded whether they are soul beasts or humans.
What about you, Snow? The Snow Empress thoughts should be more normal.
The Snow Empress said inly, Ice is right! Well chase them away, and this ce will belong to us. This is our territory anyway, and anybody who wants toe into our ce to pige is asking to die.
Ahem! Huo Yuhao almost choked on his own saliva as he forced augh and said, The two of you think too highly of me. I am very ashamed! I dont have the strength to help you guys chase them away.
The Snow Empress answer was in. Have you forgotten that I said this is our territory? We are the true dictators of this ce. Even though we have be your Spirits, and we no longer possess the strength we did back then, it doesnt change the facts.
A thought urred to Huo Yuhao. Are you saying that we should draw on
The Snow Empress tilted her head slightly as she pointed with her right hand toward the ground. The snow and ice around them instantly transformed into cyclones as snowkes danced through the air. The surrounding temperature immediately plummeted as her eyes became a little listless. It feels so good to be back! This is our home.
The Ice Empress nodded and chimed in. Yes! This is the first time that weve been back ever since we left with Huo Yuhao. Lets go, Yuhao. Well let them hustle. Youll follow us into the Extreme North, and well go into the core circle.
Alright. The two queens had spoken their piece. There was no other reason for him to hesitate. Yes! The Ice Empress and the Snow Empress had ruled over the ice-type and snow-type soul beasts in the Extreme Norths icy ins for several hundred thousand years, and their authority in this ce ran deep. Even though they had be Spirits, they were still dictators in this ce.
Huo Yuhao soared into the sky as he flew towards the Extreme Norths core circle.
Inside the Fire Phoenix Legionsmanders tent.
Ju Zi calmly gave order after order. These orders included several important traps she understood Huo Yuhao too well, and from her perspective, he was extremely intelligent, even though he sometimes did things based on his emotions. Ju Zi knew that capturing him again after failing to do so thest time around would be even more difficult.
She didnt want to be enemies with Huo Yuhao, but she was very clear that he would not give up on messing with her army when she didnt kill him. Furthermore, with his intelligence and abilities, it wouldnt take long for him to figure out what she was doing with such arge army. In the end, something like this was very hard to hide.
Ju Zi didnt intend to conceal her intentions any longer. She became a little excited and enthusiastic when she found out that Huo Yuhao was her opponent. Perhaps this was the best opportunity for them to sh.
Such a long time had passed, and Huo Yuhaos strength had actually grown to such a level. She could feel that he was at least a Soul Sage, and he also had twin martial souls. His spiritual-type martial soul should have given him the soul skill that allowed him to conceal himself, and his ice-type soul skills naturally came from his Ultimate Ice marital soul. It was no wonder that his abilities were so powerful. The Extreme North could be said to be his turf.
But, so what? I will never lose.
Ju Zis subordinates had all left, and she stood up by herself as a faint smile appeared on her face.
Will you stille, Yuhao? I am eagerly waiting for that to happen. To be honest. I am not willing to be your opponent, but this is truly very interesting. We can have a great battle here in the Extreme North, and we shall see who will overpower who. I will not give you a chance to give me any more trouble if you end up in my hands. At least, I will only let you go after Iplete my objective here. Do you know, I am regretting not bringing you backst night a little but there are some things that you dont know about.
Ju Zi smiled mysteriously as her thoughts stopped there.
There was a secret deep in her heart that only she knew. Yes, she was the only one who knew, and she would protect this secret forever.
Yuhao, do you know that the happiness that you have given me will remain by my side?
