Ice River Valley Master, Xun Er Letting You Go Doesn't Mean I Will!

In the distance, Venerable Qing Hai finally managed to steady himself, but his face was filled with shock! Two Dou Zun expert, at least four-star, and possibly even five-star, were guarding him—just who was that woman in green?! "Who are you, daring to interfere in the affairs of my Soul Hall!"

But Qinghai quickly stood up for himself, for behind him stood the Soul Hall, the leading power in the Central Plains Continent!

"You tactless idiot, can't you see my younger brother and sister catching up?"

Xiao Yuan's expression turned colder. He then waved his hand, and under the Five-Colored Light, a figure flew out of the Storage Ring, carrying a golden glow, and shot towards Qing Hai, punching him away.

"A puppet at the Dou Zun level!?"

After Qinghai was thrown backward, he steadied himself and looked at the burly figure in the sky. His face was ashen, like the bottom of a pot.

No matter what, he never imagined that Xiao Yuan would actually be hiding a puppet of this level!

Judging from the power of that punch, this puppet is probably at the level of Three-Star Dou Zun. Moreover, due to its fearless nature, even Four Star Dou Zun would be entangled with it for a long time.

I've never heard of the Starfall Pavilion having such methods before.

"That's... Thunder Venerable!?"

Tian Shuangzi, who was not far away, also recognized the puppet's identity, and her voice became much sharper in shock.

You must know, although Thunder Venerable's strength is only at the peak of Three-Star Dou Zun, with his numerous secret techniques Dou Technique, he is comparable to Four Star Dou Zun. Yet now, he's become Xiao Yuan's puppet? This is truly unbelievable! "You guessed right, my reward is to be my puppet!"

Xiao Yuan smiled and looked at Tian Shuangzi. As soon as he spoke, the Tian Yao Kui Thunder Venerable flashed and appeared in front of him, throwing a punch that shattered space.

Clearly, if this punch landed, Tian Shuangzi would surely die.

"Valley Master, save me!"

Tian Shuangzi was still recovering from serious injuries and naturally could not stop the attack of the Tian Yao Kui. He also cried out in agony.

As soon as he finished speaking, the space in front of him distorted violently, and dense spatial fluctuations spread out from it.

"I never expected that capturing a Woeful Poison Body would attract so many powerful figures. Alas, I miscalculated."

A soft sigh emanated from the distorted space, and faintly, an Ice Throne emerged from that space. Upon the throne, a figure dressed in white robes slowly rose.

A sudden chill rose between heaven and earth!

The chill between heaven and earth reached its peak as the white-robed figure in the distorted space slowly rose. Snowflakes fell from the sky, and in a short moment, the entire Ye City was engulfed in a sea of snow. From afar, it was a silver-clad landscape, both enchanting and icy.

A pale black Ice Cone flew out, piercing the Tian Yao Kui directly. The powerful force sent it flying backward. At the same time, cracking sounds suddenly came from the distorted space, and then a pale black Ice Ladder gradually spread out from it. The white-robed figure slowly walked out along this black Ice Ladder.

The moment the white-robed figure appeared, countless gazes were immediately directed towards him.

The person who suddenly appeared was dressed in a white robe, with a tall and slender body. He looked quite young, with a hint of indifference between his brows. Even so, it was hard to hide the handsomeness in his appearance. However, this handsomeness seemed to have a touch of effeminate charm.

Furthermore, there was a black snowflake pattern between the eyebrows of this mysterious white-robed man. When one looked at it, it seemed as if even one's soul would be frozen, making it appear exceptionally eerie.

The white-robed man stood with his hands behind his back on the black Ice Ladder. Snowflakes falling from the sky swirled and roared around him. The seemingly fragile snowflakes possessed terrifying destructive power at this moment.

"This is... Ice River Valley, the Lord of Bing He Valley?"

"My God, this old demon actually came in person for a single Woeful Poison Body. He's gone to such lengths to mobilize everyone. That's terrifying!"

There were many people in Ye City with exceptional knowledge, so when they saw the white-robed man standing with his hands behind his back in the sky, gasps of astonishment immediately rang out.

Inside the Ye Clan, all the Ye Clan members were stunned at this moment. What kind of day was this? So many Dou Zun expert appeared one after another like dumplings being dropped into a pot, and now even the Valley Master of Ice River Valley had shown up!?

"Greetings, Valley Master!"

In the sky, Tian Shuangzi, who had escaped death, saw the white-robed man who had suddenly appeared, and a look of joy appeared on his face. He quickly greeted him respectfully.

"Where is the Tian She?"

The white-robed man slowly scanned his surroundings and suddenly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Tian Shuangzi's face immediately showed some embarrassment. He moved his mouth slightly before pointing at Xiao Yuan and saying, "He has already been killed by that kid."

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Bing He's gaze swept coldly over Xiao Yuan.

"Hehe, I didn't expect even the Ice Valley Master to personally come."

Qinghai, standing to the side, also clasped his hands in a fist salute to the white-robed man. Although he was also a Dou Zun Dou Zun expert, he knew that the gap between him and the Valley Master of Ice River Valley was enormous. The difference in star levels among Dou Zun was far beyond what ordinary people could predict. It was an extremely rigid hierarchical system. Without some special means, it was extremely difficult for Dou Zun to challenge someone of a higher level. Moreover, the Valley Master of Ice River Valley had become famous in Central State much earlier than him.

The white-robed man merely nodded slightly in response to Qinghai's clasped hands, and Qinghai showed no sign of anger, simply smiling indifferently.

"Lord Ice Valley, those two Dou Zun expert who suddenly appeared might be just as strong as you. Be careful!"

Upon hearing Qinghai's words, the Ice Venerable nodded and then looked at the two black-clad elders with indifferent expressions not far away.

"Who are you? This is a matter for my Ice River Valley."

Bing He is no fool to have become the Valley Master of Ice River Valley and reached this point. Judging from Xun'er's guards, it is clear that this woman's background is not weak. However, the Ancient Clan are always low-key. Some ordinary people have never even heard of this race that has been passed down from ancient times. This shows how low-key the Ancient Clan are.

Because of this, Bing He couldn't figure out Xun'er's identity, so he wasn't too wary. After all, the Douqi Continent was so vast, with countless powerful figures. Even Bing He wouldn't dare to claim that he knew all the powerful figures in the world.

"What a domineering Ice River Valley."

Xun'er couldn't continue her tender moment with Xiao Yan. After the two parted somewhat reluctantly, Xun'er's bright eyes were fixed on Bing He, and she smiled slightly.

Upon hearing Xun'er's laughter, Bing He's expression darkened slightly. He naturally knew that she wasn't praising him. His gaze subtly swept over the two black-clad elders, and he immediately realized that their strength was indeed no less than his own!

"I only want the Calamity Poison Girl. If these people are your friends, I can forgive them for what they did, but the Calamity Poison Girl must not be let go!"

Bing He's gaze swept over the two old men in black, then settled on Xiao Yi Xian. He said in a deep voice that he could naturally tell that the mysterious woman and the boy who had pulled her into his arms had a close relationship.

Upon hearing this, Xun'er glanced at Xiao Yuan's location with her bright eyes. After seeing the three beauties beside him, each with their own unique charm, she blinked helplessly, but still waved to Xiao Yuan with a smile.

Xiao Yuan also nodded slightly with a smile.

"Valley Master Bing, we cannot let Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan go. They may possess something that even our Hall of Souls Master values!"

Seeing this, Qinghai hurriedly said, "These two guys seem to have a close relationship with Yao Chen. If we can capture them, it will be a great achievement!"

"If you want to catch him, then do it yourself!"

Bing He's face darkened, and he cursed inwardly at the old man for being so ignorant of the times, daring to shout like that in this kind of situation.

Upon hearing Bing He's rebuke, Qinghai's expression changed slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He then let out a cold snort. He was Hall of Souls Elder, and although he was somewhat polite to Bing He, it did not mean that he had to be subservient to him.

"You two don't need to fight anymore. Neither of you can take any of the people here with you. Leave this city with your people within one minute, and I'll let you go."

Regarding the two who had started arguing even before the fight had begun, Xun'er raised her beautiful eyes and said calmly.

Given her background, she naturally knew long ago that Xiao Yi Xian, this Calamity Poison Girl, would be one of her many sisters-in-law. Knowing her Third Brother's personality, even if Ice River Valley retreated today, it would surely come to destroy Ice River Valley one day. All she needed to do today was scare these people away.

Upon hearing Xun'er's words, Bing He and Qinghai's expressions turned somewhat ugly. The forces they represented were no ordinary forces, especially the latter, who had the Soul Hall as a powerful backer, allowing them to act with almost no restraint. In this Central State, there were only a handful of forces that the Soul Hall could be wary of. Although the two black-clad elders were very intimidating, they were not enough to make the two of them leave at a moment's notice!

"Heh heh, what an arrogant tone. It's rare to see someone in Central State speaking to my Soul Hall like that." Qinghai's aged face was slightly gloomy as he chuckled, "I'm telling you, little brat, don't offend an untouchable being just for the sake of a small man and your powerful backer."

"These words might carry some weight if spoken by the Hall of Souls Master, but you are not qualified."

Xun'er's lips curled into a slight smile as she shook her head, saying with a half-smile, "On this continent, there seem to be even fewer beings that the Ancient Clan dare not offend."

"Thirty seconds left."

Xun'er's bright eyes flickered slightly, and tiny golden flames drifted and moved.

Bing He and Qinghai had gloomy expressions. After a moment, the former finally couldn't help but sneer. If they really turned around and left in such a dejected manner today, Ice River Valley would really lose face.

"I've been Bing He the Central State for so many years, but this is the first time I've encountered such an arrogant junior as you!"

Bing He gave a cold smile, the black snowflake between his brows shimmering with an eerie light. A surge of black chill slowly erupted from his body. He clenched his fist, and black ice crackled and spread across his palm, transforming into a rather strange-looking black ice spike.

The spike is exceptionally sharp at the front and its entire body is covered with spiral patterns. Just looking at it gives one a chilling feeling. If you were hit by this thing, it would probably leave a bloody hole the size of a head on your body.

"Two elders."

Seeing Bing He's actions, Xun'er's face remained expressionless as she turned her gaze to the two black-clad elders not far away.

Upon hearing Xun'er speak, the two old men in black quickly bowed and clasped their hands in greeting, saying with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss, leave it to us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired, black-clad old man turned his head, his gaze falling on Bing He, and smiled:

"Hehe, I've long heard that the Valley Master of Ice River Valley has cultivated his Ice Venerable Strength to the highest level. Now, I'll have to experience it for myself."

As the last syllable faded, the white-haired old man stepped into the void and appeared directly in front of Bing He not far away, his aged face full of a warm smile.

"Since you old fellow choose first, then I'll leave these two to me." Another old man in black shook his head helplessly, then turned his gaze to Qinghai and Tian Shuangzi.

Bing He stared at the smiling white-haired old man in front of him with a gloomy look in his eyes. A sinister look appeared in his eyes. He stomped his foot on the void, and strange black ice blocks appeared out of thin air. Then they transformed into more than a dozen black ice spears, which tore through space and rushed towards Bing He like lightning.

Seeing this, the white-haired old man smiled, clenched his fist, and a vast expanse of deep yellow Dou Qi qi surged out, immediately forming a thick earthen wall in front of him, which blocked all the black ice spears with a series of popping sounds.

"Miss doesn't like waiting, so I'll seize the time to fight you!"

The white-haired old man stomped his foot on the void, and deep yellow Dou Qi swirled around his body. With a series of roars, it transformed into a ferocious earth dragon, bringing with it low roars and rapidly shaking space, as it pounced on the Bing He!

Faced with the fierce attack of the white-haired old man, even with Bing He's strength, he had to be cautious. The strange black ice spike on his arm suddenly spun at high speed and flashed fiercely towards the white-haired old man.

As the white-haired elder attacked Bing He, another elder in black also stepped through the void, walking step by step towards Qinghai and Tian Shuangzi.

"Tian Shuangzi, how about we join forces and test this man?" Qinghai's face grew increasingly grim as he watched the black-clad elder approach step by step. He spoke in a deep voice to Tian Shuangzi beside him.

Tian Shuangzi glanced at the fierce battle between the white-haired old man and Bing He, and nodded helplessly. The situation on the field was not optimistic. He could only hope that the two of them could hold on for a while longer.

"We have no choice but to give it a shot."

With a determined look, Tian Shuangzi knew that Bing He hadn't mentioned retreating, so he naturally didn't dare to run away on his own and had no choice but to take action.

"Gan Da, let's join forces to deal with Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan!"

Qinghai's face was icy as he coldly shouted at the powerful figures from the Soul Hall.

Upon hearing this, Gan Da and the others, who were hovering in the sky, were all taken aback, and then gave a bitter smile. Right now, there was a Dou Zun level puppet beside Xiao Yuan. If they went up there, wouldn't they be throwing their lives away? However, although they thought this, they dared not disobey Qing Hai's orders. They could only quickly calm their minds, wave their hands, and rush towards the location of Xiao Yuan.

"Elders of Ice River Valley, heed my command! Assist the Soul Hall in capturing Xiao Yan!"

Tian Shuangzi's cold shout rang out, and the elders of the Ice River Valley in the sky exchanged glances upon hearing it, and could only grit their teeth and rush out.

Seeing this, Qinghai nodded slightly, his cold gaze suddenly turning to the black-clad old man who had already arrived in front of him. His eyes met Tian Shuangzi's briefly, and both of them let out a cold laugh. Vast Dou Qi qi surged out from their bodies, and with a whoosh, the two of them separated and then used their figures to launch a fierce attack on the black-clad old man from the front and back.

At this moment, Xiao Yuan leisurely brought three beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, to Xiao Yan and Xun'er's side.

"Not bad, Xun'er, your strength has improved very quickly."

Xiao Yuan glanced at her and found that he couldn't quite see through Xun'er's strength. He nodded and praised her.

"Compared to you, Third Brother, Xun'er seems to be a bit weaker."

Xun'er looked distressed and said with a hint of helplessness.

Although he is indeed at a higher level in terms of Dou Qi, in terms of combat power, his monstrous genius Third Brother is still more terrifying.

"I haven't forgotten that I said I'd bring Xiao Yan to your clan to propose marriage back then. How could I do that without some strength?"

Xiao Yuan laughed heartily upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Xun'er blushed and turned to look at Xiao Yan beside her. Their eyes met, filled with affection.

"By the way, let me introduce you. These three are Cai Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, Yun Yun. Hmm, they'll all be your sister-in-law sooner or later."

As Xiao Yuan was explaining, he had a thought, and the puppets of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, led by Thunder Venerable, attacked the Soul Hall members and the elders of the Ice River Valley who were oblivious to their fate.

At the same time, three fair and delicate hands pinched Xiao Yuan's soft waist.

"Hiss!"

"Pfft!"

Xun'er and Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh when they saw Xiao Yuan grinning.

"Give me some face in front of your younger siblings!"

Xiao Yuan rubbed his kidneys helplessly and sighed.

"Hmph! *3"

Three cold snorts rang out simultaneously.

"Who told you, Third Brother, to be so fickle and upset your three sisters-in-law?"

Xiao Yan laughed mockingly, his eyebrows dancing with delight.

"Hmph, you've really grown up. I'll definitely have a good spar with you later and show you what it means to be an elder brother like a father."

Xiao Yuan looked at Xiao Yan with an unfriendly expression and said in a sinister voice.

"Ahem, there's really no need for that!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan quickly shook his head.

He had already realized that unless he used the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame to fight to the death, he was no match for Third Brother. Was that supposed to be a friendly spar? That would be nothing short of asking for a beating! "Third Brother, you can't bully Brother Xiao Yan! If it's just a friendly spar, Xun'er can fight you!"

Xun'er shielded Xiao Yan behind her and said with her chin held high.

"Then forget it. How could I lay a hand on my own sister? But you came at just the right time, saving me a lot of trouble."

Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"So, you mean Third Brother can resolve the current crisis without Xun'er's help?"

Xun'er asked curiously upon hearing this.

"More or less. Ice River Valley isn't too difficult to deal with, but I can't solve the problem of that silly boy Xiao Yan's longing for you all these years. Only you yourself can do something about it."

Xiao Yuan nodded, his words carrying a hint of mockery.

"Elder brother"

Xiao Yan blushed upon hearing this. Was his reaction really that obvious? "Then please, Third Brother, make your move quickly. My time outside is limited, and I can't afford to waste it on this kind of thing."

Xun'er glanced at Xiao Yan beside her, then blinked and said.

"Haha, then do me a favor and break this cold energy array. Leave the rest to me."

Xiao Yuan nodded and said with a relaxed expression.

"Okay!"

Upon hearing this, Xun'er nodded obediently, then flicked her finger, and a wisp of golden light flashed from her fingertip before disappearing. Shortly after the golden light appeared, the energy of this world suddenly fluctuated violently. A moment later, a series of powerful beams of Dou Qi qi suddenly burst in from outside the cold barrier, tearing it to shreds. Countless wisps of cold air leaked out, and as they did so, the temperature of this world gradually returned to normal, and the pervasive cold mist quietly dissipated.

As the cold mist dissipated, a series of whooshing sounds suddenly rang out, and then a large number of dark figures appeared in front of Xun'er in perfect unison, bowing to her.

Xun'er nodded slightly at the appearance of these dark figures, and with a wave of her jade hand, they transformed into streaks of black shadows and scattered around the city, alert for any sudden situations.

"Sharp!"

Xiao Yuan nodded, his gaze sweeping across the distant battlefield. He saw that Qinghai and Tian Shuangzi were clearly at a disadvantage against the old man in black.

As for the battlefield between the white-haired old man and Bing He, the two were fighting fiercely. In the midst of their battle, the void space was constantly cracking open with dark fissures, and the terrifying energy fluctuations made countless people tremble with fear.

"Bang!"

In the sky, the two figures collided with lightning, creating a deafening sound. The white-haired old man let out a hearty laugh, and a dazzling green crystalline light suddenly shot out from his withered palm, forming a series of profound hand seals!

"Hehe, try taking my Sky Annihilation Seal!"

Upon hearing the white-haired old man's loud laughter, Xiao Yan's eyebrows twitched. Sky Annihilation Seal? The fourth seal of the Emperor Imprint Skill?

Bing He was also taken aback by the white-haired old man's shout. Sky Annihilation Seal? That name seemed somewhat familiar. "Sky Annihilation Seal? Emperor Imprint Skill!?"

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and after a while, Bing He suddenly stopped, a look of horror finally appearing in his eyes as he turned his gaze to the cyan figure in the distance!

"She... she's actually from the Ancient Clan?"

Bing He's gaze was fixed on the girl in blue who was stepping on the void in the distance. The horror in his eyes was hard to hide. The Ancient Clan, this mysterious and low-key terrifying force, has always kept a low profile in the Central State. However, as long as a strong person has reached a certain level of qualifications and weight, they will know how terrifying the energy of this race that has been passed down since ancient times is.

Without any hesitation, he quickly used his abilities to catch the Sky Annihilation Seal in front of him, and then cupped his hands towards Xun'er, saying, "Miss, please allow me to say a word!"

"What? Does the Ice River Valley want to persuade me to hand over my sister-in-law?"

Xun'er's lips curled into a smile, her voice carrying a hint of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Bing He's pupils contracted, and he immediately turned his gaze to Qinghai and Tian Shuangzi, who were fighting with the old man in black. He said in a deep voice, "Tian Shuangzi, come back!"

Hearing Bing He's shout, Tian Shuangzi, who was on the verge of collapse, perked up. Without having time to say anything to Qinghai beside him, he moved and quickly retreated, appearing beside Bing He in a few flashes. He asked in a low voice with some doubt, "Valley Master?"

"What happened today was the fault of my Ice River Valley. If we have offended you in any way, Bing He asks for your forgiveness, young lady."

Bing He ignored Tian Shuangzi, gritted his teeth, and then, amidst a sea of stunned gazes, cupped his hands in greeting to Xun'er.

Upon hearing this, Tian Shuangzi stared blankly at Bing He, having never seen Bing He say such a thing before.

"Who exactly are these people? How could they possibly be so formidable?" Tian Shuangzi wasn't stupid. After a moment's thought, he understood. If the other party were just two Dou Zun expert, they wouldn't have been able to make Bing He react like this. So it was obvious that the mysterious woman must have a terrifying background that even Ice River Valley feared.

"Bing He, what do you mean by this? Do you want to disgrace Ice River Valley?"

With Tian Shuangzi retreating, Qinghai, naturally, dared not linger with the old man in black any longer. He also hurriedly fled, shouting angrily at Bing He.

Bing He ignored Qinghai's angry shout. Although he wanted to obtain the Woeful Poison Body, he would give it up without hesitation if it required facing the Ancient Clan. After all, the Soul Hall might not be so afraid of the Ancient Clan, but Ice River Valley definitely did not have that kind of strength!

"It's alright, let those two old gentlemen come back, I'll take care of the rest."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan spoke softly to Xun'er.

"I will have someone clean up the mess in Ye City. I won't stay any longer today." The countless questioning gazes below made Bing He clench his fists involuntarily. Then he turned to Xun'er and said in a deep voice, "Miss, I hope that what happened today is just a minor grudge and will not affect our future relationships."

Xun'er naturally understood what he meant, and smiled slightly, saying softly, "I also hope that what happened today will not happen a second time, otherwise, the next place we go to may be the Ice River Valley."

Bing He's expression changed slightly, then he forced a smile, waved his sleeve, and the space behind him distorted. Just as he was about to enter it, a powerful Space Power appeared out of thin air and destroyed the Space Channel.

"Miss, what is the meaning of this?"

Looking at the shattered Space Channel, Bing He's expression also turned grim.

"Ice River Valley, are you mistaken? Xun'er said she would let you go, that's her business, I never said I would let you leave!"

Xiao Yuan's laughter echoed between heaven and earth. An old man wearing a red and white robe appeared beside him at some point. A powerful and scorching Dou Qi that made all the Dou Zun expert present change color erupted!
