Once the Soul Summoning Formation was activated, Su Chen had nothing to do. It was just a matter of time. As long as little Wang Ye's soul hadn't dissipated, he would definitely be summoned back.
The only situation where the Soul Summoning Formation failed was if little Wang Ye didn't have any attachment to the mortal world, and his soul directly fell into the Underworld to be reincarnated. In that case, even if Su Chen's Soul Summoning Formation was ten times or a hundred times larger, it still wouldn't be able to pull little Wang Ye's soul out of the Underworld.
The Underworld and the mortal world had completely different laws. Even an invincible expert in the mortal world had no leeway to interfere with the laws of the Underworld. Even Great Emperors didn't have the ability to bring a dead person's soul out of the Underworld.
However, since the young prince had died an unnatural death, he would definitely be unwilling to accept it. He would definitely not fall into the underworld and enter the cycle of reincarnation so quickly. Therefore, the probability of finding him through the Soul Summoning Array was still very high.
It was late at night.
The North Vanquishing Prince had set up a banquet to entertain Su Chen and Ling Long. He also mysteriously told Su Chen that an important figure would soon appear.
Su Chen immediately thought of the Emperor of Snow Country.
The North Vanquishing Prince was already a figure who stood at the peak of Snow Country's imperial power. The only person he could call an important figure was the Emperor. Even the Crown Prince didn't have this qualification.
The North Vanquishing Prince obviously didn't intend to hide it. He said it so that Su Chen would be mentally prepared.
To be honest, Su Chen was a little surprised.
The Emperor of Snow Country was a famous existence in the Vast Thousand Domains. Like Lady Providence, he was also a Saint King expert. If Great Emperors didn't appear, Saint Kings were the supreme beings of the world. An expert of this level, and the noble ruler of a country, actually wanted to take the initiative to meet him?
It was really a little inconceivable.
Not to mention a Saint King expert, even a Divine King would have enormous pride. How could he lower himself and take the initiative to meet a Heaven's Equal cultivator? The difference in cultivation level was too great.
But after thinking about it carefully, Su Chen felt that it was reasonable.
Because this Saint King expert was the Emperor of the Snow Empire, it was not surprising that he would do such a thing.
A ruler should be courteous to the wise, cherish talent, and seek after talent. This is the way of a wise ruler.
As the ruler of a country, and a huge empire like Snow Country, he could not put on airs and put himself on the high and mighty dragon throne, and be an arrogant loner.
This was the persona of a secular king, but it was not suitable for a huge ancient empire that had been passed down for a hundred thousand years.
How much could face be worth? Would being alone allow an empire to prosper in the long run?
Of course not.
The Emperor of the Snow Country was definitely a smart man. He knew what the Snow Country needed and what he should do to benefit the Snow Country. In other people's eyes, the dignified Emperor of the Snow Country, a super expert of the Saint King Realm, had personally paid a visit to a cultivator of the Heaven's Equal Realm. This was something that would damage the Emperor's dignity.
But for the Emperor himself, for the people of the Snow Country, he only had to pay the price of a little face to gain the favor of a genius Celestial Talisman Master. This was a huge gain.
And even if this little thought was seen through by Su Chen in advance, it did not matter. Because even if Su Chen knew the thoughts of the Emperor of the Snow Country, he would still feel very comfortable. No one would refuse the feeling of being valued. As long as this person had the need for interpersonal relationships, he would receive great spiritual satisfaction.
Su Chen was no exception.
He could see through it, but he also fell for it.
To be honest, although Su Chen had not even seen the face of the Emperor of the Snow Country, he had already developed a great deal of admiration for him.
With such an Emperor in the Snow Country, it was inevitable that he would be powerful.
The banquet had just begun. Besides the North Vanquishing Prince, there were only some family members of the prince's mansion. It was a family banquet. But because the news of little Wang Ye's' death 'had a great impact on the prince's mansion, the atmosphere of the banquet was certainly not cheerful. After all, little Wang Ye had not been rescued yet.
After three rounds of drinking, there was a noise outside the door.
Su Chen sensed that many powerful auras were rapidly approaching.
The North Vanquishing Prince's expression changed. He said, "Mr. Su, please wait for a moment. I'll go out to welcome the guests."
Su Chen stood up and said, "I'll go with Wang Ye to welcome them."
Since the Emperor of the Snow Country had given him so much face, Su Chen of course could not just sit there and wait. He still had to show the proper etiquette. They had indeed come because of his talent, but this was not a reason for Su Chen to be proud of his talent.
As for Linglong, she had not guessed who the guests would be. But seeing Su Chen stand up to welcome them, she felt embarrassed to continue eating and drinking, so she also stood up and went out with Su Chen.
Outside the door, there were several cultivators in black and gold robes standing in two neat rows, escorting a middle-aged elegant man to the prince's mansion.
These guards all had extraordinary temperaments and extremely powerful cultivations. Nine out of ten of them were in the Heaven's Equal Realm, and one of them was an old man with an ethereal aura. He was most likely an expert in the God King Realm.
Such a group of guards was enough to shock everyone. Even Linglong could not help rubbing her eyes, wondering if she had drunk too much and was hallucinating.
Who could be so extravagant?
The North Vanquishing Prince immediately stepped forward to greet him. "Greetings, brother."
With a flash of golden light, the middle-aged elegant man walked up to North Vanquishing Prince and helped him up. He said casually, "I'm a little late. I came across a melon field on the way and saw a huge Ice Vine Melon, so I picked it. I still remember when we were young, our father sent us brothers to Penglai Island to gain experience. We were chased by a ferocious beast for seven days and seven nights. When we were starving, we relied on an Ice Vine Melon to prolong our lives. Even now, I still can't forget the taste of that year. You should try it later and see if you can regain the feeling of that year."
"Thank you, brother."
The North Vanquishing Prince waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to take the Ice Vine Melon from the Holy Guards and bring it to the kitchen to defrost it.
The Ice Vine Melon was a specialty of the North Continent. In fact, very few people used it as food because it was not delicious, but it was very nutritious and very resistant to the cold. Therefore, it was easy to grow and had a large yield. If it was used to raise some domesticated aquatic beasts, it could make the aquatic beasts grow especially fast, thus increasing the yield of the aquatic beasts and satisfying people's needs for meat.
It could also be said that the Ice Vine Melon indirectly supported a large number of people at the bottom of the North Continent. Without the Ice Vine Melon, many people in the Snow Country would definitely be in a state of not having enough to eat just by relying on the hunting season every two months.
After chatting for a while, the middle-aged elegant man turned his eyes to Su Chen. With an easy-going smile on his face, he strode forward and grasped Su Chen's hand. "Mr. Su, I've heard a lot about you. When you crossed the tribulation on the Moyuan Star, you attracted the Heavenly Thunder to destroy the Heavenly Demon Star and thwarted the Devil Clan in one fell swoop. I didn't expect Mr. Su to come to the Snow Country and help us resolve a huge crisis. Such a righteous and courageous person is really worth learning from the young talents of the Snow Country."
