Chapter 741: Chapter 6: The Distant Guests of North Continent - Part 4

Wherever her gaze fell, frost spread.

Aluer felt some trepidation on her way because the occurrence of "Frost Kill" was an ill omen. It would easily lead the Transcendents of Changye to suspect she had come with malicious intentions.

Fortunately, after some communication, the Bai Chen who stopped her didn’t turn her away but instead took her to Changye City.

But now... the worry she harbored had indeed come to pass.

Had the newly appointed Battle God Throne become angry?

Aluer sighed softly to herself and obediently closed her eyes.

"You can open them now."

Unexpectedly, just after Aluer had closed her eyes, Bai Shu’s voice arose gently.

Upon hearing this, Aluer opened her eyes again in confusion.

She saw in front of Spring Rain Temple, the frost that had been frozen by her gaze had reverted back to its original state... What was going on?

Objects touched by "Frost Kill" had their nature altered.

Unless time was reversed, how could they... be completely restored?

Wait a second...

Aluer lifted her palm, and a piece of ice mirror condensed within it; she looked into the mirror at her reflection.

Those pale eyes had regained their black color.

"I... shared a past with that Empress from the North Continent."

Bai Shu said softly, "Aluer, from now on, the gates of Snow Forbidden City are open for you, there is no need to fear the power of "Frost Kill" leaking and causing damage within my Divine Domain."

Aluer’s expression was complicated.

Of course, she had seen Divine Miracles... but the Battle God’s miracles truly boggled the mind.

And Gu Shen, who was quietly observing, saw everything very clearly.

Bai Shu’s Divine Domain had already been spread out, enveloping the entire Snow Forbidden City.

Several layers of "Reverse Flow" had made this ancient city incredibly safe, so even if a destructive blow were to strike... as long as Bai Shu was alive, a single breath could remake it whole.

Of course... Bai Shu’s "Reverse Flow" could not violate the iron rule of life and death.

He could only restore inanimate objects.

At that moment, the power of the Divine Domain was invoked, not only "reversing" the icy shards on the door but, presumably, reversing all frost affected items that Aluer had encountered on her way here.

Besides, a strand of Battle Spirit was pressing down on the spot between Aluer’s eyebrows.

She couldn’t see it.

But Gu Shen could see... It was an invisible flame of battle just like the "Golden Hoop" on his own forehead.

Only, with intensified force.

Within Snow Forbidden City, Aluer’s "Frost Kill" was suppressed to an exceptionally safe level.

No wonder.

For the past twenty years, the other continents had such a strong sense of security.

So owning a "Prime of Life" Divine Throne made one feel so safe... Within the scope of the Divine Domain encompassing Snow Forbidden City, Bai Shu was an invincible entity, his mere thoughts could reach any corner of the city.

Here, he was truly a "God."

No wonder Bai Shu had reassured her to go retrieve items from the Netherworld Mansion without worry... Perhaps without Shen Li, she could have just breezed in and out without anyone noticing.

"... Thank you, Lord Divine."

Aluer took a deep breath.

She looked towards the golden mist above Gu Shen’s head and spoke earnestly.

She did not know of the existence of the "Golden Hoop," and simply thought that for a power of a Divine Throne’s magnitude, appearing anywhere within the Divine Domain was not surprising... Its presence above Gu Shen’s head also indirectly indicated Gu Shen’s significance.

This scene, however, was somewhat ironic.

Because the golden mist Aluer was thanking was very faint.

It appeared as though she was thanking Gu Shen.

Gu Shen was about to subconsciously say "Rise, my subject"...

"Heh."

Bai Shu, who could hear the sounds of all living beings, let out a faint laugh.

He arched an eyebrow, glanced down at Gu Shen, then calmly acknowledged Aluer’s gratitude with a "Hmm" and dispersed slowly, without much of a response.

Gu Shen’s expression remained unchanged, but he silently drew his sleeves together and raised a scornful middle finger.

What did that "Heh" mean?

The crafty old man must have overheard his thoughts!
