Inside the cave, a chilling killing intent permeated every corner like a spring, and an unparalleled pressure enveloped the entire space. The terrifying chill seemed to freeze even the void itself.
Before the bed, Xiao Yan stood frozen in place, the terrifying pressure rendering him completely immobile.
What did you just say?!
Her beautiful, icy eyes flashed with Leng Bingshuang, like swords pressed against Xiao Yan's brow. With a single thought, she could instantly kill Xiao Yan.
Feeling the terrifying pressure surrounding him that almost made it hard for him to breathe, Xiao Yan's face grew paler and paler, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.
Xiao Yan swallowed hard, gritted his teeth, and tensed the muscles on his face. As he struggled to lift his head, his entire head trembled as he resisted the terrifying pressure that was pressing down on him.
"I..."
"Whoosh--"
As soon as Xiao Yan uttered a single word, a sharp sound of wind being torn apart suddenly resounded throughout the cave.
The next moment, Xiao Yan felt a gust of cold wind fill his face, and at the same time, an Xiao Yan hand gripped his neck tightly. Instantly, Xiao Yan, who was already struggling to breathe, felt completely suffocated.
"You were sent by them?!"
Leng Bingshuang, aloof face drew close to Xiao Yan's, the two almost face to face. At such close range, Xiao Yan could even clearly feel her breath hitting his face.
But immediately afterward, that gentle aura was instantly crushed by the terrifying coldness emanating from Leng Bingshuang. At the same time, Xiao Yan's body also felt an even more terrifying coldness. Unbeknownst to him, a thick layer of solid ice had already covered Xiao Yan's calves as the coldness condensed.
As Leng Bingshuang grabbed his neck, Xiao Yan's face quickly turned red, and his entire face swelled up in a short moment. The whites of his eyes, which were as white as snow, were also quickly filled with a scarlet color.
"Snort!"
Seeing Xiao Yan's flushed face, Leng Bingshuang, and then took two steps back, withdrawing her jade hand from Xiao Yan's neck.
Meanwhile, sharp ice spikes rapidly condensed in the surrounding void.
Xiao Yan's legs are now frozen, which greatly restricts his movement. If Xiao Yan dares to make any further moves, Leng Bingshuang can take his life in an instant!
"Speak! What did they send you here for?"
"Cough cough cough..."
As he uttered those Leng Bingshuang words, Xiao Yan clutched his throat and coughed violently until he finally caught his breath after a long while.
"Ahem... Senior, this junior is Xiao Yan, and I don't know who you mean by 'them'..."
Xiao Yan breathed heavily, his voice hoarse.
Upon hearing this, Leng Bingshuang Shuang frowned, and a murderous intent surged in her beautiful eyes. She raised her hand, flipped her palm, and ice spikes from the surrounding void shot fiercely towards Xiao Yan's entire body.
At the same time, Leng Bingshuang hands also condensed Origin Qi, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of Xiao Yan, slamming a palm down hard on Xiao Yan's chest.
"You brat, still dare to argue! Today, I, the King, will ensure you don't leave alive!"
"Laugh..."
However, at the critical moment, Xiao Yan suddenly activated the Heavenly Flames within his body, instantly breaking through the ice that bound his legs. At the same time, Six Paths Curtain instantly condensed behind Xiao Yan. When Leng Bingshuang's palm reached in front of Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan's figure had already disappeared into the tents behind him.
"Bang!"
Immediately afterwards, Leng Bingshuang's jade hand struck the void where Xiao Yan had just stood. Instantly, terrifying power erupted, shattering the space in front of Leng Bingshuang in the blink of an eye. Even most of the furniture in the cave was reduced to ashes by Leng Bingshuang's palm strike.
"Huh?! This is... the Power of the Great Dao! Boy, who exactly are you?!"
Startled, Leng Bingshuang abruptly turned around, and as Xiao Yan Xiao Yan appeared, she unleashed another palm strike, fiercely blasting towards him.
Upon seeing Leng Bingshuang attack again, Xiao Yan's expression changed drastically. Judging from her posture, she clearly intended to kill him. If he were to be struck by this woman's palm, the consequences would be no laughing matter!
While feeling horrified, Xiao Yan did not dare to be careless. He quickly formed hand seals and took the opportunity to dodge Leng Bingshuang 'Xiao Yan second attack.
"Senior! I came here with no other intentions, and everything I said is true. As for the 'them' you mentioned, I truly know nothing about them; it's all just a misunderstanding!"
Having dodged Leng Bingshuang's fatal blows three times in a row, Xiao Yan's expression grew increasingly solemn. He knew that Leng Bingshuang hadn't used her full strength at all.
As expected, just as Xiao Yan was about to unleash the Six Paths Curtain once more, Leng Bingshuang finally made her move...
"Hmph! You think you're the only one who possesses the Power of the Great Dao!"
With a cold snort, Leng Bingshuang, chilling glint shot from Leng Bingshuang's icy blue eyes.
At the same time, Leng Bingshuang Shuang raised her jade-like hand, quickly forming a hand seal. As she looked up, a dazzling ice-blue light shone like Leng Bingshuang in her eyes.
" Great Dao of Frost! Ice Mirror!"
As the chilling shout fell, an extremely cold aura rapidly condensed in the void around Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, instantly forming six ice mirrors around him, surrounding Xiao Yan in the center.
The ice mirror is entirely ice-blue in color and shaped like a giant rhombus, resembling a slanted, vertical mirror.
The smooth mirror reflected Xiao Yan's figure, and at the same time, an extremely cold aura emanated from the six ice mirrors, completely sealing off the space within them.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan's expression became even more solemn. With a thought, the Power of the Great Dao rapidly condensed in the space in front of him, and the fourth of the Six Paths Curtain quickly materialized in front of Xiao Yan.
However, unlike before, this time, even after Xiao Yan stepped out of the tent, his figure was still within the range of the six ice mirrors' seal.
"What!"
Upon seeing the ice mirror appear before him, Xiao Yan's expression hardened, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. However, at the same time, Leng Bingshuang beautiful and graceful figure appeared behind Xiao Yan in an instant.
