Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2443: Ice Phoenix (1)



Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly. Clearly, the handshake earlier was her intention to probe him. Fortunately, Lan Bingxue could only perceive the bloodline of the Divine Phoenix, a counterpart of her Ice Phoenix.

Lan Bingxue looked at Gui Xiao and said, "This must be the long-lost Black Turtle God."

"Oh..." Gui Xiao responded, his black-green eyes staring at Lan Bingxue curiously.

Lan Bingxue shifted her gaze to Hei Shou and narrowed her eyes slightly. "I can feel the aura of death from it... It is something that belongs to the Primordial God level."

Hei Shou gave her a thumbs-up in return.

Lan Bingxue brought Yun Lintian to an ice table and beckoned him to sit down.

"You are not affected by Primordial Decay. It seems you have just arrived here." She spoke while looking at Yun Lintian curiously. "Are you perhaps coming from the Primal Chaos?" Yun Lintian's eyes turned sharp. "Shouldn't you introduce yourself first?" he asked calmly. "Your guess is correct," Lan Bingxue said with a faint smile. "I am indeed the Ice Phoenix Empress, the regent of this realm."

Yun Lintian's heart shook upon hearing this. He had thought about this possibility, but he wasn't sure. It turned out she was indeed the one he was looking for.

"But," Lan Bingxue continued, "I am not the original Ice Phoenix. More precisely, I was born from her remnants."

Yun Lintian stared straight into her eyes as he asked, "How did she die?"

"She was at the end of her rope. She overdrafted her power to contain twenty General Class Shadow Demons and Void Creatures. In the end, she sacrificed herself to get rid of them," Lan Bingxue responded calmly. "I was born from her ashes."

Yun Lintian stared at her for a while and said, "It seems there's a missing piece of information here. For example, the one who helped you."

"You're quite clever," Lan Bingxue smiled. "Yes, I was rescued by the Lord of Chaos."

Yun Lintian's heart sank. It was indeed what he had expected. Lan Bingxue and perhaps the Golden Qilin Emperor were definitely working under the so-called Lord of Chaos.

"It's understandable that you have a prejudice against him. After all, you've just arrived here," Lan Bingxue said gently, as if she saw through his thoughts. "The Lord of Chaos is different. He's benevolent and treats his subjects with kindness."

Yun Lintian curled his lips and offered no comment.

"I know what you think," Lan Bingxue chuckled. "He's powerful, but he's not omnipotent. It's impossible for him to help everyone... Only naive people think that there's no suffering in this world."

Yun Lintian's mind raced. If Lan Bingxue was hostile, he must find an opportunity to escape as soon as possible. It was a bit unexpected for him to meet her here.

"It depends on your attitude," Lan Bingxue said with a meaningful smile. "If you are willing to accept my offer, I will not harm you and your friends."

Her words were simple, but they sent a chill down Yun Lintian's spine.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yun Lintian took a deep look at her and asked, "What is your offer?"

"Simple," Lan Bingxue curled her lips. "Marry me and give birth to my descendant."

The surrounding temperature seemed to drop significantly as her voice fell.

Yun Lintian stared at her for a long time and asked, "Why?"

"I've been looking for a suitable man, but none have the qualifications," Lan Bingxue said gently. "But you, on the other hand, have everything. You're a descendant of the Divine Phoenix, and your raw talent is unprecedented. My children will definitely be talented with your seed."

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said, "What if I refuse?"

The smile on Lan Bingxue's lips slowly receded. Her eyes turned incomparably cold and indifferent as she spoke, "Of course, I will make you yield."

Her aura gradually seeped out of her body, enveloping the entire space.

Yun Lintian's heart shook uncontrollably. He had never faced such overwhelming power before. He was certain that as long as he made a move, he would undoubtedly be subdued in a few seconds... Was this the power of a Primordial God?

At this moment, Gui Xiao looked at her with an innocent expression. "You... can't... harm him," he said slowly.

"Oh? Why is that?" Lan Bingxue looked at the little guy curiously.

"You... can't... beat him," Gui Xiao responded word by word.

Lan Bingxue's expression froze for a second, and a smile appeared on her face. "Interesting. No one has ever told me to my face that I can't beat a God Ascension Realm ant," she said

gently.

Yun Lintian's mind turned as he heard Gui Xiao's words. Compared to his judgment, Gui Xiao's was far more accurate. There must be something here to help him contend with Lan Bingxue.

Suddenly, Hei Shou patted Yun Lintian's shoulder, attracting his attention. When Yun Lintian looked at him, he saw Hei Shou point toward the back of the garden, seemingly telling him to go there.

Lan Bingxue was surprised to see this. She looked at Hei Shou and Gui Xiao deeply. "You two actually perceive her aura? This is unexpected."

"Her aura?" Yun Lintian frowned deeply. He couldn't understand what they were talking about.

Gui Xiao looked at him and said, "Ice... Phoenix... Over there."

Yun Lintian immediately understood. Instantly, his aura surged, blasting everyone around him away.

BOOM!!

Yun Lintian's figure transformed into a shadow as he rushed toward the back of the garden. At this moment, Lan Bingxue's aura surged like a tidal wave, trying to stop him. Her power was overwhelming, pressing down on Yun Lintian with the weight of a mountain. "Ugh..." Yun Lintian struggled against the immense pressure, his body straining under the force. He could feel his bones creaking and his muscles tearing, but he pressed on, driven by the desperate need to escape.

He could hear Lan Bingxue's cold and emotionless voice echoing behind him. "You cannot escape me, Yun Lintian. This is your destiny."

The Heaven Piercing Sword appeared in Yun Lintian's hand as he swung backward. His Phoenix flames blasted out, reducing everything in their path to ashes.

Lan Bingxue narrowed her eyes and waved her hand gently. A gust of bone-chilling wind blasted out, colliding with the Phoenix flames.

Bang!

The space shook violently. Yun Lintian used this chance to increase his pace.

Finally, he saw it. A shimmering portal, hidden among the snowdrifts at the back of the garden. It was faint, almost invisible, but Yun Lintian could sense the powerful energy

emanating from it...
