Chapter 49 Bingbing, Happy 520
Time seemed to stand still at that moment, and a suffocating tension filled the air. Hyotei stood there, staring blankly, his face filled with disbelief as he watched the snowflakes freeze in the sky.
"Little Scorpion, I know you have many questions, but don't worry, I will tell you everything."
A deep voice suddenly rang out, and then the figure of a kind old man dressed in gray appeared before Hyotei. His face was amiable, but his eyes shone with profound wisdom, as if he could see through everything in the world.
Hyotei stared in terror at the strange old man who had suddenly appeared, her heart filled with doubt and unease. She could sense that the aura emanating from him far surpassed her own, even that of Yuki-tei. Faced with such an opponent, Hyotei felt she didn't even have a chance to escape.
"Who are you? When did someone like you appear on the Douluo Continent?" Ice Emperor's voice trembled slightly, clearly, the appearance of this old man was completely beyond her expectations.
The old man smiled slightly, his voice gentle and magnetic, as if capable of soothing people: "Little Scorpion, how have you been? It's been a long time since we last met. I know you don't recognize me yet, but that's alright. After you've read this memory, we can have a good chat."
After speaking, the old man stretched out his hand, and a golden ball of light slowly floated out of his hand, flying towards Hyotei's forehead. The ball of light steadily entered Hyotei's mind, and in the next instant, a vast and complex flood of memories rushed into her mind like a torrent.
It was less than ten minutes, but in Hyotei's mind it felt like decades had passed.
Electrolux did not allow Hyotei to view these memories from an outsider's perspective, but instead directly connected Hyotei's spirit with all of Hyotei's experiences in Huo Yuhao's memories.
Therefore, the memories of Ice Emperor in Huo Yuhao's mind were almost entirely experienced from the perspective of Ice Emperor ten thousand years in the future.
After reviewing the memories, Hyotei's expression was unusually complex, his heart filled with indescribable emotions.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm leaned forward almost without hesitation. Shaking its adorable head, it said in a tone that could melt an iceberg, "Bingbing, you remember everything..."
However, before Tianmeng Bingcan could finish speaking, a sudden slap sent him flying.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm spun around in the air a few times, like a snowflake blown by the wind, and finally fell into the snowdrift next to it in a graceful arc.
Ice Emperor's face showed a hint of shame and indignation. Her beautiful eyes glared fiercely at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Her originally cold face was now slightly red, and even her tail was tinged with pink.
Huo Yuhao and Electrolux exchanged a glance, both revealing knowing smiles. It seems Hyotei still needs some time to process her memories.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: Give me peanuts, feed me peanuts!
However, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was shameless. After pulling its head out of the snowdrift, it flew towards Ice Emperor again, and unsurprisingly, flew back into the snowdrift once more.
No one knows how many times it flew out, but Ice Emperor was eventually defeated by the unparalleled shamelessness of Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and allowed it to stay by his side.
"Yuhao, I really didn't expect that so many things would happen in the future..." Bingdi's gaze fell on Huo Yuhao with a complicated expression.
Hyotei didn't doubt that Huo Yuhao might use fake memories to deceive her. After all, Hyotei knew perfectly well how strong Electrolux was, and there was no reason for him to deceive her. The reason it took so long to adapt was simply because Hyotei needed time to adjust.
"Alright, enough of that. So much time has passed, everyone must be hungry. I'll grill some fish for you all now."
Huo Yuhao smiled and then took out several lively blue fish from his personal soul tool. This was a storage soul tool that Huo Yuhao had made himself; it could not only store items but also maintain the vitality of living creatures.
"This is the core area of the far north. Can you really cook fish in this environment?" Ice Emperor looked at Huo Yuhao with a hint of doubt.
"Haha, it's just grilling a fish, of course it's fine."
Electrolux smiled slightly, and then a spark appeared in front of Huo Yuhao.
"Wow, old man, you're getting better and better! That move was so cool! Teach me quickly! I'll rely on this move to show off from now on."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm excitedly ran over, perched on Electrolux's shoulder, and pestered him for advice. Electrolux, his face dark, hung Tianmeng Ice Silkworm upside down in mid-air, completely ignoring its pleas for mercy. This guy just wouldn't give him a friendly look; if you gave him a little attitude, he'd take advantage of you.
Seeing the unfortunate Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Bingdi couldn't help but smile.
Soon, a rich aroma began to fill the air. Huo Yuhao skillfully grilled the bluefish until they were a tempting golden brown, drops of oil sizzling as they dripped from the grilled fish. He then brushed a layer of honey onto the fish, which, under the residual heat, released an even more enticing fragrance. The dish was now complete, its aroma filling the air and making mouths water.
Seeing the grilled fish Huo Yuhao handed her, Bingdi's beautiful eyes lit up. She immediately took the grilled fish and couldn't wait to eat it.
Biting through the crispy fish skin, the smooth, white flesh was revealed. Hyotei took a small bite, the fish meat rolling down her throat and into her stomach, warming her entire being. She closed her eyes, savoring the familiar deliciousness, a satisfied smile spreading across her face.
Tianmeng Bingcan mysteriously pulled out several exquisite wine bottles from a corner. The bottles had a faint pinkish luster, like peach petals. With a fawning smile, he carefully placed the bottles in front of Bingdi, muttering, "Bingbing, how can you eat grilled fish without wine? Just imagine, a bite of tender grilled fish paired with a sip of fragrant peach blossom wine—that's true enjoyment of life!"
Hyotei glanced at Tianmeng Bingcan with a hint of disdain in her eyes, but still reached out and took the peach blossom wine he offered. She gently swirled the bottle, watching the liquid ripple in the sunlight, seemingly lost in thought.
As she downed a jar of wine, Hyotei's cheeks gradually flushed a rosy red. Normally, with her cultivation level, this amount of alcohol wouldn't be enough to make her drunk, but today, she seemed somewhat unusual. Her eyes were unfocused, and she held the wine jar in her hand, staring blankly at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
Looking at Bingdi's drunken, hazy appearance, Tianmeng Bingcan felt an indescribable emotion welling up inside him. It was as if a hot current was surging in his chest, making his heart beat faster and almost jump out of his chest.
Hyotei seemed to sense Tianmeng Bingcan's gaze. She raised an eyebrow slightly and asked softly, "Your eyes are fixed on me. What, am I that good-looking?"
Upon hearing Bingdi's question, Tianmeng Bingcan immediately snapped out of his reverie. He took a deep breath and replied firmly, "Beautiful, of course beautiful. Bingbing, in my heart, you will always be the most beautiful, unmatched by anyone."
Hyotei blushed, turned away, and stopped looking directly at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. She seemed a little shy and at a loss for what to do.
Tianmeng Bingcan chuckled, and as if by magic, a bouquet of vibrant roses suddenly appeared in his hand. He gently placed the bouquet in front of Bingdi and said softly, "Bingbing, do you know what day it is today?"
"Just say what you have to say, don't keep me in suspense."
When Hyotei saw the bouquet of bright red roses in front of her, her blush deepened, as if the color of the flowers was reflected on her cheeks.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm gazed at Bingdi with deep affection and slowly said, "Today is May 20th, which in human terms is 520. The pronunciation of this number is similar to 'I love you'."
"Bingbing, I timed my arrival here precisely to tell you that you are my one and only." I love you, Bingbing, Happy 520!
Tianmeng Bingcan's words were filled with sincere emotion. Bingdi's heart stirred slightly. Although she did not respond directly, her slightly trembling gaze and the smile that appeared on her face seemed to say everything.
"Happy 520, you stinky Tianmeng."
Hyotei murmured to itself.
