The appearance of this divine soul made everyone present stand still in shock.
The face of this divine soul, the voice that carried the majesty of an emperor, and the powerful aura that emanated from him without even getting angry, all caused the people of the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom to have the same thought:
"The Black Ice Emperor... is back!?"
“Father!!”
The first person to react was naturally Empress Ling Qingli.
After seeing the face of this spirit clearly, she could no longer suppress the infinite longing and extremely suppressed mood in her heart, and tears turned into streams and flowed down from Ling Qingli's beautiful eyes.
She rushed over excitedly and hugged the soul, burying her head in her father's broad and tall chest, feeling the infinite surprise of having lost and regained it, and venting the endless sadness and pain in her heart.
"Good boy, father knows you've worked hard."
Emperor Xuanbing looked at Ling Qingli with gentle and doting eyes, and said with relief: "My daughter has finally grown up. Seeing that you can govern the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom so well, I am very relieved..."
"Father, what happened to you? Where is your body?" Ling Qingli asked anxiously.
Emperor Xuanbing shook his head slightly and smiled faintly: "It's okay, don't worry, we can talk about this later..."
At this moment, Frost Soul King Ling Jiuyou, Cold Chi King Ao Beiming, and Black Crystal King Leng Guanxing finally recovered from their shock.
He quickly knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully to the long-missing Emperor Xuanbing, who had suddenly returned.
"Your servant Ling Jiuyou (Ao Beiming, Leng Guanxing), pays homage to the Emperor Xuanbing!"
Although only a wisp of soul remained of the Xuanbing Emperor at this time, his power as an emperor still remained. Moreover, who could guarantee that the Xuanbing Emperor would not be able to reshape his body and return to his peak in the future?
Emperor Xuanbing said majestically, "Everyone, get up."
Ling Jiuyou stood up and said with a flattering smile, "Your Majesty has returned. We finally have a backbone again. I hope Your Majesty can continue to rule the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom. We are willing to serve you wholeheartedly!"
Emperor Xuanbing glanced at him with his tiger eyes and snorted coldly, "Jiuyou, you are getting more and more confused as you grow older. You can't even tell the difference between loyalty and treachery, good and evil. If I hadn't appeared in time, you would have killed my benefactor."
"ah!?"
Ling Jiuyou and others were shocked when they heard this and quickly looked at Ye Chen.
Who would have thought that the person who saved Emperor Xuanbing would be him?
Emperor Xuanbing sighed and said, "If it weren't for Young Friend Ye Chen who has been taking good care of me these days, and even using top-grade herbs and furnaces to nourish my soul, I don't know how long I would continue to be crazy, and I don't know if I would ever see you again..."
Empress Ling Qingli looked at Ye Chen with a reproachful look and complained, "Father's soul has been in your Qiankun bag for a long time, right? Why didn't you tell me?"
Now she thought about it carefully. When she first entered Ye Chen's Qiankun bag, she discovered movement in the big cauldron in the distance, but she didn't know that the person inside was her father, Emperor Xuanbing.
"I didn't know this spirit was your father..."
Ye Chen spread his hands helplessly and continued, "Back then, I discovered a mad spirit hidden in a captured Soul-Suppressing Banner. I felt this spirit was very special. Not only was it powerful, but it also always claimed to be an emperor and was determined to fight to the death with some evil spirit... I was also a little curious at the time and couldn't bear to kill it, so I kept it in my medicine cauldron."
"In that case, I should pay my respects to you, my benefactor."
As he said this, Emperor Xuanbing was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Ye Chen.
Empress Ling Qingli also advised, "Father, he is now the Duke of the Xuanbing Kingdom. He is my... my daughter's trusted confidant. This is only natural. There is no need to be so polite to him."
"How can you say that?"
Emperor Xuanbing said dissatisfiedly: "I, Ling Jiuxiao, have always been grateful and repaying. The grace of saving my life is like a reborn parent. No matter how much I thank and repay you, it is not enough... If my friend Ye Chen does not mind my daughter Pu Liu's appearance, how about letting her be your wife?"
"Father~~"
Empress Ling Qingli suddenly became extremely shy and lost all her imperial aura. She even started to act coquettishly in front of Emperor Xuanbing.
Ao Beiming, who was standing by, immediately said, "Late Emperor, we must not rush into matters like this. Furthermore, this must at least be approved by Your Majesty himself."
Empress Ling Qingli narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "How do you know I don't agree?"
However, she immediately felt that this was too explicit, and her pretty face flushed immediately. She immediately said in a cold voice: "No matter who I marry, I will never marry Ao Li!"
Now that she has her father's support, she no longer has to endure and compromise, and finally speaks out what is in her heart.
Although Ao Li is talented, he is arrogant and petty, which is not what a real man should do.
Especially when compared with Ye Chen, there is a world of difference between them, so naturally he looks down on Ao Li even more.
Seeing the awkward situation, Ye Chen coughed lightly and looked at Emperor Xuanbing and said, "I haven't asked you yet, Emperor Xuanbing, how did you end up in this situation?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone came to their senses and realized that this was the most important thing at the moment.
Emperor Xuanbing sneered, then his tiger eyes turned and looked at Mo Wusheng, who was now curled up in the cage, his whole body listless and no longer as energetic as before.
"So it really is him!?"
