Seeing Yao Ming's actions, Fang Qing's expression changed. She turned around and thrust her Sky-destroying Sword down. "Yao Ming, don't even think about hurting him!"
"Brother Ling, stop her!" Yao Ming's eyes shone with a cold light.
Swoosh!
In the sky, shadows swayed. Yao Ming suddenly dodged to the left. Ling Mufeng's feet stirred up a gust of wind. He replaced Yao Ming and collided with Fang Qing.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a violent explosion. The hundred-meter-wide gully on the ground shattered the stone slabs in the outer area of the Chaotic Lands. Even the high platforms made of Upper Grade Mysterious Crystal were crushed into powder.
"Sect Leader Fang Qing, I'll be your opponent."
"Ling Mufeng, you're courting death!" Fang Qing's eyes were ruthless. She flipped her hand and several golden sword lights appeared.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Ling Mufeng's hand seals changed. Several red hurricane barriers rose from the ground.
Rumble!
For a moment, it was a scene of devastation.
Teng! Teng!
Teng! Teng! Teng! Teng! Ling Mufeng kept retreating under Fang Qing's fierce attacks. He clenched his teeth and cursed, "This damned crazy woman."
"Brother Yao, hurry!" Ling Mufeng shouted at Yao Ming.
Fang Qing looked to the side and was shocked to realize that Yao Ming was within a thousand meters of the phoenix egg. His evil eyes were frightening.
"Kid, you're really lucky. But this time, you must die!"
As he neared the phoenix egg, Yao Ming heaved a sigh of relief. Now that Fang Qing was being held up by Ling Mufeng, no one could stop him from killing Qin Shi. He slowly raised his palm, and the aura flowing in the air twisted. A formless pressure pressed down on the phoenix egg.
The phoenix egg's shape was visibly changed by the pressure. Its tiny toughness had almost reached a critical point. Just a little more and it would explode.
"Phoenix Nirvana.
It's the most mysterious technique in the world. It's the only one that can regenerate a shattered soul. However, the nirvana is the weakest.
Once it's under the slightest pressure, all the previous efforts will be in vain. This kid is in danger. "
"Yao Ming won't let him go."
"It's no wonder. During the God Realm Ceremony, this kid killed a thousand disciples of the Chaotic Realm, including Chen Gan, who was in seclusion. It makes sense for Yao Ming to do this."
"But it's a pity … Even after persevering this far, he still can't escape death!"
The people of the eight regions shook their heads in pity for Qin Shi.
Buzz buzz buzz!
All of a sudden, the temperature plummeted, and snowflakes drifted tens of thousands of meters away from the chaotic zone.
The snowflakes became pure white, embellishing the world that was originally filled with hostility.
A six-edged snowflake landed on his palm. Yao Ming's expression changed.
Bang!
Soon after, a huge ice mountain rose from the ground, reaching a height of ten thousand meters. It only stopped when it reached the thick flames. At the top of the ice mountain, a thousand-year-old snow plum blossomed. The plum blossom's vines wrapped around the phoenix egg, and the flower finally bloomed on the phoenix egg.
A flower petal floated down with the wind, and a beautiful figure that stood aloof from the world stood on her tiptoes, standing on the petal.
The beautiful figure chuckled and said, "The Yao Ming Region Master is truly capable now. A dignified Region Master actually dared to kill a disciple like this?"
"He Shuhan!"
Yao Ming's face darkened when he saw the beautiful figure. "You also want to go against the chaotic zone?"
He Shuhan calmly spread her lily-white hands and gently lifted the phoenix egg, using a layer of ice to protect it. She said, "Not exactly going against the chaotic zone, but I do have some ties with this little fellow. If I think about it, he might even become the son-in-law of the Blue Snow Sect. Earlier, he was the one who put on a brave front and agreed to Region Master Ling's request. He should be the one to receive that palm strike, so I have no reason to attack. But now that the agreement between him and Region Master Ling is over, if anyone wants to hurt this little fellow, they will have to defeat me first."
"You …!"
The corners of Yao Ming's mouth twitched. He Shuhan's words were very clear. She was prepared to protect Qin Shi. This made him feel even more pressured.
He Shuhan's position in the eight territories was too high. She was the most experienced person there. Even if Yao Ming wanted to kill Qin Shi from her hands, he would have to consider his own strength.
They were all in the Realm, but there were differences. This could be seen from how easily He Shuhan had broken through his pressure.
Yao Ming stared at Qin Shi. At this time, Yuan Hao's group and Gui Ying's group arrived behind him. When they were blocked by He Shuhan, they all looked distressed. "Region Master, what should we do?
Should we attack? "
"Region Master, this is the best chance to kill this boy. If we miss this chance, it will be difficult to find him again. Should we fight with He Shuhan?
Once this boy dies and that faction fulfils its agreement, let alone He Shuhan, even if the other seven territories join forces, they won't be a threat to us! "Shi Feng said fiercely.
Yao Ming pondered for a moment. Suddenly, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. However, just as he was about to move, an aura filled with the power of desolation floated in the air. Kong Gui suddenly appeared beside He Shuhan.
"Haha, Yao Ming, if you want to play hard, count my Desolate Region in. We still have some grudges to settle!" Kong Gui sneered with his hands behind his back.
When he saw Kong Gui, Yao Ming's eyes darkened. The manic aura around him suddenly sank.
"Desolate Region!" Yuan Hao and the others were also shocked.
Two Realm experts. In this kind of confrontation, it was clear who was stronger and who was weaker.
Yao Ming narrowed his eyes. He knew that Kong Gui's appearance had caused him to lose his chance to kill Qin Shi. Even he was not confident that he could kill Qin Shi with two Realm experts. Furthermore, He Shuhan was among them.
Suddenly, he laughed. "Haha, hahaha, good, good, good. Territory Masters, I will remember Yao Ming. I hope that the two of you will not forget what you have done today. One day, I will make you regret what you have done today!"
After saying that, he snorted with a sinister look in his eyes. He turned around and shouted at the people behind him, "Let's go!"
Yuan Hao and the others clenched their fists unwillingly. However, they understood that there was nothing they could do in front of two Realm experts. They could only follow Yao Ming back to the Chaotic Region.
Seeing Yao Ming retreat, He Shuhan withdrew her cold aura. She looked back at the phoenix egg with a strange expression and could not help but bitterly laugh. "Phoenix Nirvana?
He really is a little fellow who always brings surprises. "
"Indeed. Haha, I really thought that the boy would die just like that."
"Don't you think it's a pity if he really died?
Desolate Region Master! "He Shuhan asked with a meaningful glance.
"Huh?"
Kong Gui was taken aback. He looked at He Shuhan for a moment and seemed to sense something from her eyes. Suddenly, he laughed wildly. "It is indeed a pity."
After laughing, Kong Gui became inexplicably serious. He said to He Shuhan, "But compared to pity, I want to know more. Sect Master He, don't you have any opinion on what Yao Ming did?"
"Why should I have an opinion?"
Kong Gui panicked. "Sect Master He, can't you see the relationship between the Chaotic Region and that faction?"
"You mean the Bi Group?" He Shuhan asked knowingly. "So what if I can see it?
So what if I can't see it? "
"I …!"
Kong Gui was at a loss for words, and his voice became anxious. It was hard to imagine that a Region Master like him would lose his composure like this. "Sect Master He, ever since Sect Master Qiqing fell, you are the most experienced person in the Eight Regions. Are you going to watch the Chaotic Realm run amok and cause the Eight Regions to fall into dire straits?
If I remember correctly, your Blue Snow Sect should also be being pressured by that faction in all aspects right now, right? "
Boom!
Suddenly, a wild wave of cold air surrounded Kong Gui from all directions. He Shuhan's words were bone-chilling. "The affairs of the Blue Snow Sect are not for outsiders to interfere."
"Hiss, what a terrifying cold power …!"
Kong Gui instinctively clenched his fists. He Shuhan's cold air made him, a World Realm expert, feel a sense of panic that he had never felt before. It was as if his heart could be frozen into pieces at any moment. However, in the end, he tried his best to calm down and smiled calmly. "Haha, it seems that Sect Master He is not as calm as you look."
He Shuhan calmed down quite a bit when she saw this. She withdrew the stream of frost and sighed helplessly. "Hehe, Region Lord Kong, you sure are generous. The current situation of the eight regions is not clear, so it is indeed difficult for you to still be concerned about my Blue Snow sect."
"I am thinking for the Eight Regions," Kong Gui said bluntly.
He Shuhan shook her head helplessly. Her eyes slowly shifted upwards at this moment, looking at Qin Shi. "Just you and I alone won't be able to change this. This is a calamity that is destined to happen. The treasure map has already appeared, and the calamity is getting closer and closer. If we really want to resolve this calamity, there needs to be someone who can solve it. And that person isn't you, nor is it me."
"Sect Master He, do you mean that it is this little fellow?" Kong Gui asked in shock.
He Shuhan shook her head. "I don't know either. Let's wait and see. That faction has been around for nearly ten thousand years. They would never do something without a reason. There must be a special reason why they are targeting this little fellow. As for the final outcome, we are just spectators."
Hearing this, Kong Gui let out a long sigh as if he had given up. He slowly looked at Qin Shi. "I really don't understand what fate means."
Swoosh!
At this moment, Fang Qing pushed Ling Mufeng back and rushed to the phoenix egg. Her beautiful hair was messy in the wind, but it could not hide the panic on her jade-like face.
Seeing that the youth curled up in the phoenix egg was safe and sound, she finally relaxed. She gratefully said to He Shuhan and Kong Gui, "Thank you for your help this time."
He Shuhan smiled faintly. "Sect Master Fang Qing is too polite. I said that this kid is very likely to be our sect's son-in-law. I will definitely not let anything happen to him."
"I also hope to see the Sword Sect and the Blue Snow Sect become in-laws one day." Fang Qing smiled gently.
Kong Gui interrupted. "But I am very curious. Why is Sect Master Fang Qing so protective of this kid?
It should not be just because he is a secluded disciple of the Sword Sect, right? "
Hearing this, He Shuhan also looked at Fang Qing curiously.
