CHAPTER 396: CHAPTER 396 SNOW DOMAIN

Xia Mian was also surprised. Originally, they thought the opponent caused such a big commotion because they had a backup plan. Yet they didn’t expect the opponent to confront them directly?

If it’s a direct confrontation, Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan fear no one!

As the two were deep in thought, the overwhelming snow wave had already reached them.

On the snow wave stood a man, balancing on one foot, hands clasped in a show of grandiosity.

"Descendants of the Divine Clan and Wood Clan?" The man’s voice carried a hint of disdain, "I heard you’re quite arrogant in the Mystical World!"

Xia Mian didn’t respond, instead instantly backhanded a slap.

With that slap, the snow wave beneath the man’s feet seemed to be sliced in half by an invisible sword. The man’s grandstanding lasted less than three seconds before his whole body toppled forward.

Caught off guard, the man fell heavily into the snow wave.

Flustered and ashamed, the man felt he lost face. He sprang from the snow, spat out the snow in his mouth, and began muttering incantations.

Yet, before the man could finish his chant, Xia Mian already hurled a snowball into his mouth.

The snowball, cold and solidified by Xia Mian’s grip, hit the man’s teeth hard, almost knocking out two.

The man was thoroughly enraged.

With a flick of his hands, snowflakes danced in the air and quickly formed a massive long spear.

As the spear took shape in mid-air, the surrounding temperature plummeted.

It seemed even the breath could freeze.

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan found themselves instantly encased in a layer of frost.

The Wood Clan Leader was alarmed, "That’s the Snow Domain!"

"We can’t let him unleash the Snow Domain!" the Wood Clan Leader shouted in panic, "If he does, within a hundred miles, he’d be the master of the Snow Domain!"

The Snow Clan’s old monster’s Snow Domain is far more formidable than that of the ordinary Snow Clan members!

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Lu Zechuan and Xia Mian hastily used their magic to disrupt the Snow Clan’s old monster from fully manifesting the Snow Domain.

Both of them were the outstanding talents of their respective clans, and together, they truly managed to stop the man’s magic.

In the midst of the Snow Clan man’s magic being interrupted and the Snow Domain unable to be completed—

A woman from the inn rushed out, shouting towards Lu Zechuan, "Ah Chuan!"

The voice was incredibly familiar.

Lu Zechuan squinted but didn’t turn to look.

He was not foolish; Murong Shuang had ample opportunities to come out before or after; choosing this moment meant she wanted to distract him!

If he fell for it, then the Snow Clan’s old monster would seize the chance to unleash the Snow Domain, putting him and Xia Mian in grave danger!

Lu Zechuan ignored Murong Shuang, which instantly made her expression turn sinister.

She dashed towards Lu Zechuan, extracting a sharp dagger while sprinting.

The dagger gleamed a blinding white in the snowy light.

Noticing the impending danger, the Wood Clan Leader emerged from Lu Zechuan and kicked Murong Shuang away decisively.

Murong Shuang couldn’t withstand the blow and fainted immediately.

Seeing this, the Snow Clan’s old monster’s face darkened.

If not for Murong Shuang’s care during this time, he might still be asleep, never to awaken!

To him, Murong Shuang was remarkably significant.

He regarded her as a benefactor and also as a lifelong companion.

He cherished and adored her, allowing no harm to befall her!

Furious, the Snow Clan man erupted with spiritual power, instantly forming the Snow Domain!

At the moment of the Snow Domain’s formation, Xia Mian noticeably felt his spiritual power getting restrained.

Lu Zechuan also slightly furrowed his brows; once the Snow Domain formed, both he and Xia Mian became outsiders, while the Snow Clan’s old monster became the domain’s master.

Within the Snow Domain, this Snow Clan’s old monster had absolute control over everything.

Lu Zechuan instinctively shielded Xia Mian behind him.

"You two juniors are something else!" the Snow Clan’s old monster sneered, casting a glance at the unconscious Murong Shuang in the snow.

"I heard that you are her grandson?" His gaze landed on Lu Zechuan, "You’re her grandson, yet you killed her beloved daughter?"

Lu Zechuan’s eyes narrowed. His beloved grandmother trusted this Snow Clan’s old monster completely!

"And you, old thing from the Wood Clan, didn’t you die already?" The Snow Clan’s old monster’s gaze fell on the Wood Clan Leader’s soul body.

"You’re not dead enough, leaving a remnant soul here, obstructing my eyes!" the Snow Clan’s old monster’s eyes were filled with malice.

The Wood Clan Leader scoffed, "It’s you who should die completely, stay away from me!"

With a derisive snort, the Snow Clan’s old monster bent down to lift Murong Shuang.

"You are all her enemies, so offer your lives to atone to her!" The Snow Clan’s old monster’s aura turned solemn and harsh.

As the Snow Clan old monster’s words fell, Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan noticeably felt their breath halt.

It seemed as though an invisible hand was gripping their throats.

So, this is the Snow Domain?

In this domain, does the master have the power of life and death?

"Mianmian..." Lu Zechuan’s expression slightly altered. It was a spontaneous decision to come out for a walk.

He never dreamed that a simple outing could lead to such trouble!

Lu Zechuan lightly waved his hands, trying to manipulate his spiritual power to attack the Snow Clan’s old monster.

But within the Snow Clan old monster’s Snow Domain, all his spiritual power was beyond his control!

"You old bastard! Do not harm my precious grandson!" The Wood Clan Leader’s face changed, and he charged towards the Snow Clan’s old monster!

"Old thing from the Wood Clan, haven’t you figured out your situation? You’re only fit to become my nourishment!" Finally, the Snow Clan’s old monster extended a hand, grasping the air towards the Wood Clan Leader.

The Wood Clan Leader’s soul body instantly floated uncontrollably, drawn towards the Snow Clan old monster.

The Snow Clan old monster’s face grew greedy as he opened his mouth wide.

The Wood Clan Leader’s soul body!

If he consumed it, he could instantly gain nearly a hundred years of cultivation!

"Do not harm my grandfather!" Lu Zechuan’s expression turned as dark as ink.

His grandfather followed him to the present world to restore his physical body, not to become someone else’s fodder!

In his rage, Lu Zechuan’s body seemed to undergo subtle changes.

Rings of fluorescent green light coiled around him, and as they flickered, his spiritual power seemed to return under his command.

Lu Zechuan’s eyes showed a hint of surprise; in the Snow Domain, he wasn’t entirely at a disadvantage after all.

Lu Zechuan opened his hand, gathering spiritual power instantly.

In the next moment, he delivered a blow towards the Snow Clan’s old monster.

His spiritual power, entwined with snowflakes, descended upon the old monster like an overwhelming tide.

The surrounding time and space seemed to emit crackling sounds under the immense impact.
