Chapter 389: Play hard to get?

The Snow Emperor was stunned for a moment.

Three to five months?

She has been coming to Qilin Hall for several months, and now she has to wait so long?

Emperor Xue's fingertips unconsciously rubbed his knees twice, several thoughts went through his mind, and he was about to speak.

The Ice Emperor couldn't sit still anymore.

"Why is it taking so long? "

Ice Emperor's voice suddenly became much louder. Her short dark green hair rose slightly as she moved, and her tender little face was filled with impatience.

"You have only been going to the Killing City for three or four months. Does it take such a long time to prepare for a trip to the far north? "

When Su Bai heard this, the corner of his mouth raised. He looked at the Ice Emperor up and down, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting he became.

After the Ice Emperor transformed into a human form, he looked like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old loli. She was not tall, had delicate features, and a pair of green eyes that were clear and unique to the Arctic ice field.

The Ice Emperor usually has a cold air, but is especially quiet when he is with the Snow Emperor.

At this moment, when I was anxious, my hair almost stood on end, and my whole body looked like a cat with exploded fur.

Su Bai held back her laughter, put down the tea cup, rested her elbows on the table, and tilted her head to look at her.

"Oh? Is the Ice Emperor impatient? "

Ice Emperor's face turned red.

"Oh, what are you talking about! "

Her voice rose another level, her green eyes were full of embarrassment, and she waved her hands randomly in front of her.

"I'm talking about going to the far north! Far north! It has nothing to do with anything else! "

Su Bai nodded slowly, with an "I understand, I understand" expression on his face.

"Of course it's what we talked about in the far north before. "

His tone was unhurried, with a teeth-itching leisurely energy, "You and Snow Emperor have not joined the gang yet. "

The Ice Emperor's mouth opened, but no words came out.

On the way from the far north to Qilin Palace, Su Bai said this more than once, openly or secretly.

How could Bi Ji and Zi Ji be treated, and how could Ye Xishui be treated? She and Snow Emperor had watched from the sidelines for several months, how could they not understand what "joining the gang" meant.

The Ice Emperor's head drooped, and the tips of his ears were so red that they could bleed.

Emperor Xue sat next to her, his hand holding the tea cup paused slightly.

She didn't look at Su Bai, her eyes fell on a fixed point on the table, but there was indeed a faint blush on that cold and almost inhuman face.

It spreads from the neck to behind the ears.

Brigitte glanced at them with her peripheral vision, lowered her head quietly, pursed her lips and snickered.

Ye Xishui picked up the vegetables expressionlessly, but the frequency of picking up the dishes obviously slowed down.

Zi Ji was different. She was very courageous, so she spoke directly.

"You have all been coming to Qilin Hall for several months. "

"Those who have not yet become Young Masters, you are..."

"Okay. "Su Bai stretched out his hand and directly took Zi Ji into his arms.

Zi Ji's words were cut off abruptly, her back pressed against Su Bai's chest, her body stiffened slightly, and then relaxed.

Su Bai rested his chin on her shoulder, put one arm around her waist, and spoke in a casual tone, as if he was talking about today's weather.

"Zi Ji, don't be in a hurry. "

Su Bai's lips were almost close to Zi Ji's ears, and her tone was very casual,

"Young Master, I have plenty of time. "

Zi Ji tilted her head, her purple lips slightly raised.

She didn't say anything else, but when those dark purple eyes swept over the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor, they had a meaning that everyone understood.

The Snow Emperor sat sullenly, with the hem of her white dress folded neatly. From the outside, she looked no different from usual.

But her fingers clenched slightly in the cuffs.

Join the gang and become Su Bai's man.

It's not that she hasn't thought about this.

During the days when she was practicing beside Binghuo Liangyi, she could see how Bi Ji got along with Su Bai every day. That gentle, natural, unhappiness-free closeness.

There is also Ye Xishui, a strong human being, a ninety-ninth-level peerless Douluo, with the mark of God Shura engraved between his eyebrows.

Not to mention Zi Ji, the Hell Demon Dragon King with 200,000 years of cultivation, was being carried around in Su Bai's arms, and even the curvature of the corners of his mouth became softer.

And what about her and Ice Emperor?

Bystander, outsider?

This knowledge made Snow Emperor very uncomfortable.

She couldn't tell whether this discomfort was due to the loss of being excluded, or because of something else.

Ice Emperor's head was also in turmoil.

She secretly raised her eyes and glanced at Su Bai, just in time to see Su Bai's chin resting on Zi Ji's shoulder, her fingers fiddling with the scale belt around Zi Ji's waist.

The Ice Emperor quickly looked away.

The heartbeat is a little fast.

Su Bai saw all this, but he didn't do anything more.

There are some things that cannot be urged.

YueUrging people is more likely to push them into a hurry, which is self-defeating.

The Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor are the kings of the far north. They have lived in the Star Forest for so long, and they are no less proud than Bi Ji and Zi Ji.

What they need is not pressure, but time.

Su Bai smiled and patted Zi Ji's waist.

"Have you finished eating?"

Zi Ji glanced at him and said, "It's done."

"Let's go back and take a rest with me."

Su Bai stood up, held Zi Ji's hand and walked toward the palace. When he passed by the Ice Emperor, he even rubbed the Ice Emperor's head.

"Don't worry, Ice Emperor. Let's talk slowly after the young master has finished what he is doing."

Ice Emperor's body stiffened, and Su Bai had already retracted his hand.

She touched her messed up hair and opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Brigitte began to clear the dishes on the table.

Ye Xishui stood up to help.

The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor looked at each other and each returned to their own rooms.

After the door of the bedroom was closed, Zi Ji finally let go of her arrogance and calmness.

Su Bai pushed her to the edge of the bed and sat down, clasping the back of her head with his palm and stroking the pitch-black scales on her forehead with his thumb.

Zi Ji's breathing became a little unsteady.

"I haven't seen the young master for more than three months."

Her voice was very low, her long purple-black hair slipped from Su Bai's fingers, and her dark purple pupils reflected Su Bai's face.

"Miss me?"

"Yeah."

Su Bai lowered his head. There was no need to say anything else.

Brigitte turned over in the next room and covered her ears with a pillow.

She has long been used to it.

……

In the next few days, Su Bai's schedule was very regular.

Practice during the day, compete with Ye Xishui in the martial arts field in the evening, and take turns spending the night with Biji, Ziji and Ye Xishui at night.

Occasionally, we all come together.

The three women kept Su Bai's schedule full.

The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor were completely left aside.

Not completely ignoring it.

Su Bai would still talk to them when eating, talking about things in the Far North and his cultivation experience, with a lukewarm attitude and polite manner.

​But that's all.

There was no extra physical contact, no ambiguous hints, not even the act of rubbing the Ice Emperor's head.

On the third day, the Ice Emperor "ran into" Su Bai at the door of the training room.
