Chapter 126 - Final Victor?

“You heard her.”

Grim determination etched across Chen Fan's face as he stared at Xuan Feixue and Chu Qing. “My Senior Sister isn’t afraid of death. If she dies, rest assured, both of you will follow suit even if I’m currently in poor condition.”

Xuan Feixue and Chu Qing's expressions darkened simultaneously, a shiver running through their hearts.

"I've given you the Ice Jade Snow Lotus. Now, release my Senior Sister, and I'll take a blow from each of you,” Chen Fan said coldly, firm in his stance, brooking no opposition.

Qin Yao hurriedly shouted, “Don’t, Xiaofan...”

A gentle smile appeared on Chen Fan’s face as he said, “It's fine, Senior Sister. I've said it before—I'm willing to do anything to save you.”

His expression suddenly turned cold, and he continued, “Are you done thinking? Release my Senior Sister, or we shall all die here.”

Xuan Feixue’s eyes shone, and he said, “How can we be certain you won't renege on your word once we release your senior sister?”

Chen Fan scornfully said, “I'm severely injured, barely at ten percent of my full strength. I’m not stupid enough to seek death after my Senior Sister’s out of your grasp. I value my life as much as you do. I won't backtrack on my promise; I'll endure one attack from each of you.”

After pondering briefly, Xuan Feixue and Chu Qing nodded. “Alright, we’ll do as you say.”

With a wave of his arm, the force binding Qin Yao dissipated, granting her freedom of movement.

“Xiaofan...”

Qin Yao was about to run toward Chen Fan, but he immediately roared, “Leave, Senior Sister!”

“Xiaofan...”

“Go! Don’t drag me down!” Chen Fan yelled.

Qin Yao paused momentarily before she started crying, her hands covering her mouth. She turned around to run in the distance.

Xuan Feixue said, “Chen Fan, we’ve released your senior sister. Don't attempt any tricks. I have left a wisp of my primeval force inside her. If you dare play any tricks, I’ll instantly detonate it.”

Chen Fan's eyes gleamed, a cold light flashing within them. “I won’t. Make your move.”

“Haha, good!”

Xuan Feixue laughed out loud. With a swift motion, he struck Chen Fan with a palm. New novel chapters are published on

Frost encased Chen Fan, and a dark cloud of cold qi, half the size of a mu, condensed above him. Countless snowflakes fell, threatening to turn Chen Fan into an iceman. [1]

“Senior Brother’s Hornless Ice Dragon Cultivation Technique is so powerful. The cold intent from his palm can instantly freeze one’s vitality. So cold.”

Several Mountain River Sect disciples’ eyes were filled with awe and fear when they saw this scene unfold.

Frozen from head to toe and heavily injured, Chen Fan still retained a shred of power to resist. However, he reluctantly gave up on that for Qin Yao's safety.

Even so, he was secretly revolving the Heaven Seizing Furnace embryo.

The formidable cold qi invaded him, wreaking havoc in his meridians before being absorbed and refined by the Heaven Seizing Furnace.

Xuan Feixue laughed coldly, “A strand of my cold qi entered you when you shattered the ice sculpture earlier.”

“Impossible, I clearly checked it.” Chu Qing had a look of disbelief.

Xuan Feixue mocked, “Haha, how funny. The primeval force cultivated through my Hornless Ice Dragon Cultivation Technique isn't easily discernible. Although it's merely a strand and won't inflict serious damage, it's enough to tilt the scales in my favor.”

Xuan Feixue launched a furious barrage of attacks on Chu Qing, wrapped in a storm of ice and snow.

A bone-chilling intent permeated the surroundings, and snowflakes descended from the heavens.

Boom, boom, boom!

Intense ripples of primeval qi immediately erupted at the edge of the desert.

......

“Senior Sister!”

Chen Fan caught up to Qin Yao and descended. He stumbled as he landed, spewing out a large mouthful of blood.

“How are you feeling, Xiaofan?”

Qin Yao hurriedly supported Chen Fan. Large beads of tears rolled off her cheeks as she blamed herself. “It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault. I’m always dragging you down. You wouldn’t be in this state if it weren’t for me.”

“Don’t say something so silly, Senior Sister.”

Chen Fan forced out a smile, one that looked quite ugly, and said, “Come on, let’s quickly leave and find a safe place to recuperate.”

......

In an inconspicuous cave:

“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”

Chen Fan vomited three mouthfuls of blood as soon as they entered the cave. His complexion turned ashen, devoid of color.

“Ah, you’re vomiting blood again, Xiaofan.” Qin Yao turned pale with fright.

Chen Fan smiled, “I have lots of blood. Vomiting a few mouthfuls doesn’t matter.”

“Stop talking. Sit down and recuperate. Here, take these pills.”

Qin Yao hurriedly took out a few spiritual pills and stuffed them inside Chen Fan’s mouth. A warm current spread through him, slightly alleviating his injuries.

Chen Fan sat down and said to Qin Yao, “Senior Sister, a strand of Xuan Feixue’s primeval force is inside you, so he could use it to locate us. Sit down. I’ll use my cultivation to refine it away. It’ll be dangerous at that time.”

“Alright!” Qin Yao hurriedly agreed.

Chen Fan sent a wisp of primeval qi into Qin Yao, navigating through her meridians. Soon, he located the dormant strand of cold primeval force left behind by Xuan Feixue. Sending more primeval qi, he enveloped and refined it away, eliminating any potential threats.
