This scoundrel is a bit of a swordsman.

Chapter 303 The Sword from the Great Snow Mountain

Mu Wushuang was very optimistic, but the others were extremely worried. They couldn't understand where Mu Wushuang's confidence came from, but right now, besides pinning their hopes on Xiao Xingchen himself, there was really nothing else they could do to help.

Because of the symbiotic existence of the soul imprint, Ruoxue and Lingxue are unable to use their extraordinary strength. Killing Shen Li is easy, but what about Xiao Xingchen?

Even Xizhu watched quietly from the sidelines, unable to think of any immediate solution to this thorny situation.

The contest between Xiao Xingchen and Shen Li continued. No one could see the pressure emanating from Shen Li; only Xiao Xingchen felt as if he were at the eye of a storm, constantly experiencing the mental and emotional impact.

"Kneel down, and you won't have to endure so much pain,"

"Submit to me, and I will take you away from this world and lead you to the pinnacle."

. . .

The seductive voices echoed in his ears, and the dazzling light of his consciousness made him dizzy. He felt as if he could become Shen Li's puppet at any moment, and the uncontrollable desires within his body were gradually being taken over by Shen Li.

His legs creaked and groaned, a testament to his defiant resistance. His knees were already half-kneeling. To outsiders, Xiao Xingchen was not merely acknowledging Shen Li's existence, but was demonstrating to the world, with a submissiveness that few men could accept, that this was the Queen Consort of the Prince of Kao Shan.

Shen Li revealed a smug smile. Although there had been some twists and turns, the existence of the slave seal told her that the overall situation was settled. As long as Xiao Xingchen submitted, everything else would be under her control.

"Xiao Xingchen, what are you doing?"

Yan Yi shouted loudly. Although she had only known Xiao Xingchen for a short time, she knew how proud this man was. How could he kneel down to a woman in front of so many people?

Her actions also aroused the curiosity of others.

"Xiao Xingchen has been affected; his body is starting to slip out of his control," Hua Xiaolou slowly rose and walked to her senior sister, whose expression was now extremely grave.

"Xiao Lou, didn't you say you'd help him out in a crucial moment? Aren't you going to lend a hand?"

"I ask," the eldest sister asked, her sword trembling slightly, poised to unleash a devastating blow at any moment.

"There's no turning back now. Since Yun Shen is going to venture into the unknown, we're destined to be enemies. The fact that they value Xiao Xingchen so much, even sending Shen Li, shows how important he is,"

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?"

The senior sister smiled gently, and a sword cry pierced the sky.

The sky, which was clear and bright, suddenly began to snowflake. This was in summer! The snowflakes landed on people's shoulders; this eerie scene startled everyone, and they looked up at the sky.

Why is it snowing?

The question had barely left my mouth when the snowflakes started to grow larger and larger.

"This is?"

Yun Xiyao's gaze suddenly turned towards Tian Ling's camp. Her senior sister's sword was already half-drawn from its sheath, and the half-inch hilt was radiating an extremely cold aura.

Even on the senior sister's sword-wielding arm, ice slowly began to condense. And that wasn't all; beneath her feet, frozen surfaces began to spread, instantly turning any passerby who came into contact with the ice into ice.

This scene was truly earth-shattering, causing those around to quickly retreat, and the cultivators felt a chilling terror that seemed to reach their very souls.

"Not good! That sword came from the summit of Tianling Snow Mountain! Retreat quickly!"

For the first time, Shangguan Yun showed fear. She thought of the legend of that sword, but how could she dare to do this? This was Yong'an City. Was she going to freeze Yong'an?

Legend has it that the sword atop the Great Snow Mountain was formed after a kingdom was frozen in ice. That Great Snow Mountain was originally a kingdom, and as the ice thickened, it gradually formed into the Great Snow Mountain.

However, the sword was so cold that no human could handle it. Regardless of strength, anyone who got close to the sword would be frozen solid.

This is also the root cause of the Tianling Plateau's formation: a single sword created a frozen plateau, and countless top-tier forces are the Tianling Plateau's greatest asset.

But now, as the woman pulled her sword out half an inch, the extreme ice of the Great Snow Mountain began to spread throughout Yong'an.

"Don't be impatient. This is just a replica. Move back three hundred feet from here, and I'll guarantee you'll be safe and sound."

Hua Xiaolou led her fellow disciples slowly into the void, soaring proudly through the air. Her voice echoed throughout Yong'an City, serving as a warning to everyone.

The freezing continued, though slowly, its power was unimaginable; everything it touched turned into frozen crystals, remaining motionless.

Xizhu immediately spotted the sword. Golden light emanated from beneath her feet, and arrays encompassed the Prince Kaoshan's mansion. Upon encountering the arrays, the ice formations miraculously stopped on their own.

This scene was astonishing once again: a sword from the Great Snow Mountain, a formation master of unknown origin—aside from the Prince's Mansion, everything was heading towards freezing.

It wasn't until the ice spread to the feet of Shen Li and Xiao Xingchen that Shen Li had a chance to look at her senior sister.

"Tianling, have you finally held back?"

Shen Li showed no fear, but instead looked to the side with amusement. Her senior sister's sword was already halfway out, and half of her body had turned into an ice sculpture.

"Shen Li, your Shen family wants to take this opportunity to leave Yun Shen. Did you even ask for our opinion? Do you really think Tian Ling doesn't exist?"

Hua Xiaolou's figure flashed, and she arrived directly beside Xiao Xingchen. Before Shen Li could respond, she unleashed a series of magical seals upon Xiao Xingchen.

"You think you can break my forbidden techniques with ice? You're dreaming!"

Shen Li shouted, and the crystal shield surrounding her suddenly shattered. The fragments that shattered formed a tortoise-shell pattern around her body.

Once the ice barrier approached, the tortoise shell, like a tortoise shell, prevented them from entering. In just a moment, it trapped Shen Li and Xiao Xingchen inside like a bucket.

"Do you really think your tortoise shell can stop my Great Snow Mountain sword? Even though it's just a replica, but..."

The eldest sister's disdainful voice rang out, and with a "whoosh," she drew the entire sword.

A visible chill rose from the steam, sending a shiver down the spine despite the July temperature. Breaths turned into white mist and then quickly froze.

A transparent ice sword, radiating a chilling aura, was wielded by the eldest senior sister. With each swing, her already half-frozen body was instantly encased in ice, turning her into an ice statue.

But this did not affect the fall of the ice sword in the slightest.

Xiao Xingchen felt an extreme chill sweep over his consciousness, instantly freezing him up.

As the icy force swept in, the body that Shen Li had been controlling was completely released, and he regained control of his body once again.
