Chapter 0947: The Two Envoys of Wind and Snow
The envoys of the Ice Sea Palace are ranked by hierarchy and strength, divided into low, middle, and high ranks. The original Two Envoys of Qingming were middle-rank envoys of the Ice Sea Palace, while this young man and woman were high-rank envoys—indeed, the only two high-rank envoys in the palace.
Aofeng and Aoxue, brother and sister!
In the Ice Sea Palace, aside from the palace master and the two vice-palace masters, these two held the greatest power.
After they arrived, Aofeng suddenly slammed his palm downward. A wave of energy spread with the wind, turning all the ancient trees in the primeval forest below into powder wherever it reached. Many fierce beasts lay dead everywhere.
Soon, the energy wave reached the ancient tree where the Yellow Dragon was. The Yellow Dragon soared into the sky.
“Kid, you finally show up. You hid quite well!” Seeing the Yellow Dragon emerge, Aofeng wasn’t in a hurry to attack. Instead, he spoke calmly.
The Yellow Dragon frowned. He didn’t understand how the other party had found him.
“You must be wondering how we found you, right? Well, let’s make sure you die understanding—our lady carries a talisman with the seal of our palace master. Though we can’t sense it from afar, we can detect it within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles!” Aoxue waved her hand casually, causing snowflakes to fall abundantly.
So that’s how it is!
However, when he captured Lengyue earlier, the Yellow Dragon had used his Heavenly Eye to examine her body and found nothing unusual. It seemed he had underestimated the palace master of the Ice Sea Palace after all.
“Hand over our lady, and we’ll let you die comfortably!” Aofeng stretched out his hand, his aura surging as green wind columns circled around him.
The Yellow Dragon replied indifferently, “Our lady is indeed in my hands. But since death is inevitable anyway, why should I hand her over?”
“Dare you! Seeking death!” Aoxue’s beautiful eyes flashed with anger. Suddenly, she transformed into a storm of snowflakes, appearing right in front of the Yellow Dragon. Amid the swirling snow, a delicate jade hand reached out and pressed against his chest.
What fast speed!
The Yellow Dragon was shocked but not panicked. He activated the thirty-three divine artifacts and the Dragon Gate within his body, amplifying his strength, and struck back fiercely.
“Boom!” With a loud noise, the Yellow Dragon was sent flying. Many ancient trees collapsed.
Hundreds of thousands of miles away, the Yellow Dragon stopped moving. The life energy of the World Tree surged, relieving the pain in his body.
“Huh?! You… didn’t die?!” The snowflakes dissipated, and Aoxue stood in midair, staring at the Yellow Dragon in disbelief.
How could a semi-saint from the early stage of an eight-era cycle withstand her sudden attack unharmed?!
Aofeng was also surprised.
“This kid is quite strange. It seems we can’t take him lightly!” Aofeng flashed over and joined Aoxue, speaking calmly.
Aoxue nodded.
Huang Long stared coldly at the two of them, channeling all his magical energy to concentrate it.
Now, his true form had risen to a mid-tier Great Path Divine Artifact, ranking at 4,400. Even Long Yun, the Sacred Dragon Maiden from the middle of ten eras, would find it difficult to kill Huang Long, let alone Aoxue, who was only from the early stages of ten eras.
However, if the two worked together, it would be quite troublesome.
“You brat, you can’t escape! Release our lady!” Aofeng stared intently at Huang Long.
“Release your lady?” Huang Long looked at them with mockery, sneering, “Since you’re willing to attack me regardless of your lady’s safety, what’s the point of keeping her? I’ll kill her right now!”
“Dare you!” The two’s expressions changed as they spoke in unison, locking their energy on Huang Long.
But they really didn’t dare make any further moves.
Earlier, when Aoxue attacked, she thought she could kill Huang Long with a sudden strike and rescue their lady, but Huang Long’s strength surprised them greatly.
Just then, a huge Golden God suddenly appeared above Huang Long’s head and threw a fierce punch at Aoxue.
The massive golden fist covered the sky, its golden light blinding.
The sudden attack caught the two off guard; they never expected Huang Long to strike so suddenly and with such power.
Aoxue’s delicate face paled in shock as she frantically threw a punch, sending snowflakes flying. These snowflakes formed one snow world after another, each freezing time and space.
Yet, these snow worlds couldn’t stop the golden fist.
“Crash!” “Crash!” “Crash!”
One after another, the snow worlds collapsed.
The golden fist rushed forward in an instant.
“Wind of Silence!” At that moment, Aofeng acted—his hands struck out, sending a silent wind toward the golden fist, which collided violently.
With a loud boom, both were sent flying.
That Golden God was the result of Huang Long using twelve top-tier spiritual veins at full capacity to launch an attack, equivalent to a strike from a powerful warrior from the middle of ten eras. Caught off guard, the two were sent flying, badly injured.
After sending the two flying, Huang Long didn’t linger. He dashed into the Sacred Cauldron and used it to break through the air at high speed.
“Thief! I’ll catch you! I’ll tear you apart!” Aoxue stabilized herself and shouted angrily before transforming into a flurry of swift snowflakes to chase after him.
Aofeng vanished like a gentle breeze, becoming invisible.
The two pursued closely.
But back then, even Long Yun couldn’t kill Huang Long during the late stages of seven eras. Now, with his true form elevated to a mid-tier Great Path Divine Artifact and his strength having surpassed eight eras, how could the two possibly kill him?
Although the two kept attacking, they were effortlessly countered one by one by the Eighteen Golden Gods Array activated by Huang Long.
“Are those the Wind and Snow Envoys of the Ice Sea Palace?!”
“That’s right, it’s the Wind and Snow Envoys! Who are they chasing?!”
“What kind of cauldron is this? It can withstand the attacks of the Wind and Snow Envoys? A Golden God?!”
The three, one after another, emitted powerful energy fluctuations that immediately caught the attention of many strong warriors, who began to discuss it in astonishment.
“Could it be the person the Ice Sea Palace is offering a reward for capturing?!” Realizing this possibility, many quickly followed them.
Sensing the arrival of so many strong warriors, Huang Long frowned.
This approach wouldn’t work!
If the Ice Sea Palace and other experts from the Fiend Valley were drawn in, even if he were strong, he would be surrounded and killed.
Over an hour later, suddenly, three Semi-Saints dressed as envoys of the Ice Sea Palace appeared ahead and rushed toward Huang Long.
“The young lady is in this man’s hands. You three, stop him for us!” Behind them, Ao Feng smiled triumphantly and ordered the three.
Hearing this, the three immediately took action.
A fist, a palm, and a sword—black fist marks, silver giant palms, and purple sword beams all rushed at Huang Long at once. These three were the envoys from the Ice Sea Palace who had arrived at the scene first after Huang Long killed the Two Envoys of Qingming: two old women and an old man with gray hair, all being strong warriors of the seventh era.
Seeing this, a cold glint appeared in Huang Long’s eyes. A Golden God appeared and threw a punch at the three, while simultaneously attacking Ao Feng and the other two.
With a single punch from the Golden God, the three in front were scattered, and they were instantly blown to pieces with unstoppable force.
The attack of ten strong warriors of the seventh era was far beyond what seven strong warriors of the seventh era could withstand!
