# Chapter 1331: Empire Situation
Lin Feng slightly turned his head, looking at that enchanting and alluring face. He reached out his hand to hold her chin, smiling lightly: "Fairy Maiden Yi isn't worried at all that I might abandon her after toying with her?"
Yiren Lei smiled lightly, her jade-like hand reaching out to hook around Lin Feng's neck. She blew a wisp of fragrant breath toward Lin Feng, those seductive eyes as soft as water, making one unable to extricate themselves from their charm.
"A hundred days from now, Yiren will still be Yiren, and Lin Feng will still be Lin Feng. During these hundred days, my man can possess me as he pleases!" Yiren Lei's voice was filled with infinite temptation. Lin Feng released his fingers from under Yiren Lei's chin, then gently moved aside the jade hand hooked around his neck, not even looking into her eyes. The Essence of Desire could stir up one's six desires and thoughts. If this continued, he feared he might take Yiren Lei right then and there.
"Aren't we going to see Ice Emperor and Snow Lord?" Lin Feng lifted his steps and walked toward the hall.
Yiren Lei watched Lin Feng's back, her eyes as plaintive as water. She moved with lotus steps, catching up to Lin Feng, leaning against his arm, her intoxicating voice sounding again: "My man, can you bear to let Yiren fall into depravity with Dao River?"
"Dao River!" A cold light flashed through Lin Feng's eyes. If the first slaughter in the Void Battlefield hadn't been taken to heart by Lin Feng, then the second time he struck from behind, and the third time when the Dao Family members descended with Dao River's killing intent, had undoubtedly angered Lin Feng.
The two figures flickered and arrived at a magnificent palace directly below the towering Ice and Snow Divine Temple. Even though the Ice and Snow Hall endured sunlight all day long, it showed no signs of melting; instead, it became even more crystal clear and dazzling.
There were no guards in the hall. In fact, did the place where the Martial Emperors of the Snow Moon Empire resided need guards?
"Yiren, my daughter, you've come!" Before Lin Feng and Yiren arrived, they heard a gentle voice coming from afar. Following the guidance of the voice, Lin Feng and Yiren Lei arrived at the central hall. It had a majestic aura and an icy exterior, but inside, it was built of golden threads. On the huge stone pillars were carved images of a peerlessly beautiful goddess, as if they were sculptures of the Ice and Snow Goddess.
At the front of the hall, a group of people sat casually, several dozen in number. The most eye-catching were naturally the two on the honored seats at the very front, one on the left and one on the right. On the left side sat a middle-aged man with a well-proportioned figure, as if carved from ice. The moment Yiren Lei stepped in with Lin Feng, his gaze swept over Lin Feng, and a bone-chilling coldness seemed to freeze Lin Feng's soul, cold to the marrow.
This person must be Ice Emperor.
On the right imperial seat sat a woman, simple and clean, draped in a snow-white long robe, spotless. Having experienced who knows how many years, she looked like a beautiful woman of twenty-four or twenty-five, making Lin Feng sigh inwardly — powerful strength could indeed preserve eternal youth.
Without a doubt, this beautiful woman, who looked only slightly older than Yiren Lei, must be Snow Lord.
Below Ice Emperor and Snow Lord sat many figures. Below Ice Emperor, there were mostly young men, elegant and noble, dignified in appearance, with sharp glints flashing in their eyes and restrained auras. Each carried themselves with extraordinary bearing, not ordinary youths. These young men should all be imperial nobles.
Below Snow Lord, there were only Dao Gu, Dao River, that burly Venerable Lord, and another young man — no one else.
"Father Emperor, Mother!" Yiren Lei held Lin Feng's arm as she stepped forward, slightly bowing to Ice Emperor and Snow Lord. Lin Feng also bowed slightly to the two: "Seniors!"
"My daughter grows more beautiful by the day." Snow Lord stood up, walked to Yiren Lei's front, and caressed Yiren Lei's cheek. Her clean face showed maternal affection, but this scene felt somewhat strange to Lin Feng. The two standing together clearly looked more like sisters than mother and daughter.
Snow Lord's gaze shifted slightly, landing on Lin Feng, and she smiled lightly: "So this is my daughter's little man?"
"Uh..." Lin Feng was speechless. Little man!
"Alright, my daughter, come sit!" Snow Lord pulled Yiren Lei, while Yiren Lei kept holding Lin Feng's arm, walking to sit below Snow Lord's imperial seat.
"Yiren!"
At this moment, Ice Emperor, who had remained silent, finally spoke, his gaze on Yiren Lei.
"Father Emperor!" Yiren Lei remained cold and indifferent, calling out calmly.
"There are countless outstanding men in the empire, and many of my offspring possess extraordinary talent. If you like, Father Emperor can make arrangements for you. Why must you casually find a man to placate your father and mother?" Ice Emperor's voice was very calm, with no discernible waves.
But upon hearing his words, Lin Feng's eyes clearly flickered slightly. So that was it. Yiren Lei probably wasn't Ice Emperor's biological daughter, yet she still called him Father Emperor.
This could also be inferred from Yiren Lei's address earlier. She called Ice Emperor "Father Emperor" and Snow Lord "Mother."
"The situation in the Snow Moon Empire seems completely different from the Eight Wastelands. Although Martial Emperors are still supreme, with two Martial Emperors as the empire's sovereigns, it's clearly impossible for them to be of one heart like the Heavenly Terrace!" Lin Feng murmured inwardly. Ice Emperor and Snow Lord even seemed to be in opposition.
Just as Yiren Lei had said, Ice Emperor didn't want women to set foot in the Ice and Snow Divine Temple, to consolidate his lineage's inheritance, while Snow Lord wanted to break this rule.
"Father Emperor worries too much. How could Yiren casually find a man?" Yiren Lei's body slowly leaned against Lin Feng, and a moving warmth actually appeared in her icy eyes. This scene made Dao River, standing behind her, flash a sharp light in his gaze. He had never seen Princess Yiren show such tender affection.
"If Father Emperor still has doubts, before entering the Divine Temple, Yiren will prove it to Father Emperor!" Yiren Lei continued in a low voice. Everyone naturally understood what she meant by "prove it."
Ice Emperor nodded slightly: "Since you've already made your decision, Father Emperor naturally won't say anything. I just find it a pity that among my offspring, there isn't one who caught your eye!"
"Not at all. All my imperial brothers are more outstanding than Yiren. Yiren feels unworthy of them!" Yiren Lei said modestly. Of course, she couldn't choose one of Ice Emperor's offspring — that would be a situation she couldn't control. If there were no Lin Feng, she would rather choose Dao River.
"I think the imperial sister is ruining herself." At this moment, from below Ice Emperor, a youth draped in an imperial robe said softly. This person had a slender build and an elongated face with some nobility. At this moment, his gaze was fixed on Yiren Lei: "Yiren should understand elder brother's admiration for the imperial sister. Yet the imperial sister would rather casually find a man to placate us than give elder brother a chance. Elder brother feels it's not worth it for the imperial sister!"
"Elder brother's feelings, Yiren can only appreciate in her heart!" Yiren Lei replied politely, then glanced at Lin Feng, her eyes full of tenderness, as if she had cast aside all her cold pride in that moment.
"Since that's the case, elder brother won't say more!" The youth said softly, then looked at Snow Lord: "May I ask Mother Empress's view on this matter?"
In the Snow Moon Empire, Martial Emperors were supreme. Upon reaching the Martial Emperor Realm, one became the ruler of the Snow Moon Empire. Ice Emperor and Snow Lord were not husband and wife, but when they both became Martial Emperors, they were both the empire's sovereigns. Ice Emperor was the empire's father, and Snow Lord was the empire's mother. Therefore, Yiren Lei called Ice Emperor "Father Emperor," and Ice Emperor's offspring also called Snow Lord "Mother Empress."
This imperial policy had been passed down from ancient times to keep the empire stable and strong. Within the empire, Ice Emperor and Snow Lord would have open and covert struggles, but when facing people from other empires, they would unite against a common enemy. Since they were the empire's supreme rulers, they naturally had to shoulder responsibility.
"I naturally follow my daughter's wishes. Of course, if my daughter had a better choice, I wouldn't mind either!" Snow Lord replied calmly with a smile.
"Mother worries too much. Since daughter has made her choice, she won't change it!" Yiren Lei replied with a smile.
"There are always unexpected events. The imperial sister shouldn't speak too absolutely!" The youth spoke again, a faint coldness flashing across his elegant and noble face, making no effort to hide it.
"My man doesn't have a very good temper. If someone wants to play tricks and ends up suffering, elder brother shouldn't say that your younger sister didn't warn you!" Yiren Lei replied calmly, with a hint of confrontation.
Lin Feng sat quietly, dark light swirling in his pitch-black eyes. This conflict seemed more serious than he had imagined. No wonder someone had intercepted Yiren Lei in the Void Space. If they acted like this in front of Ice Emperor and Snow Lord, what would happen behind their backs?
Without a doubt, the ones who intercepted Yiren Lei were clearly among the people across from them, one or several. Lin Feng could also understand the attitude of those generals toward Yiren Lei. Obviously, they were of Ice Emperor's faction, while Dao Gu and the others standing behind Snow Lord were of Snow Lord's faction.
The two emperors each controlled their own forces, balancing and checking each other.
"I also hope he has some temper!" The youth sneered: "Father Emperor, Mother Empress, your son takes his leave!"
With that, the youth stood up, bowed slightly to Ice Emperor and Snow Lord, then looked at Yiren Lei: "The door to my hall is always open for the imperial sister!"
With a smile, his body slowly retreated from the hall, his back straight, carrying a hint of arrogance. The inheritance of the Ice and Snow Divine Temple would absolutely not fall into a woman's hands. Did Yiren Lei think casually finding a man to bring to the empire would be useful? There was still a long time before the Divine Temple opened. These days would certainly not be boring!
