Chapter 1091: Chapter 1090: The Fearsome Woman in White
Ling Chen sped forward, heading straight to the depths of Lingyue Island. At this moment, he couldn’t care about any taboos on Lingyue Island; shaking off the two behind him was his urgent priority.
As for the consequences, that would be dealt with later.
Indeed, Lingyue Island was a uniquely blessed, spiritually rich gem, with lush mountains and clear waters, truly worthy of being a hidden major sect.
However, this place also had numerous array formations and restrictions. The deeper Ling Chen went into Lingyue Island, the more he encountered restrictions, making it increasingly difficult to advance.
The gray-robed elder and the two God-catchers soon caught up with Ling Chen.
"Really, they’re like sticky candy."
Ling Chen frowned, then suddenly felt himself trapped in a marsh-like barrier, his speed significantly reduced.
"Haha, boy, the heavens are against you!"
The gray-robed elder grinned, abruptly accelerated towards Ling Chen with his gilded walking stick smashing down, then with a sudden infusion of mad True Qi, expanded his fierce claw to a size of hundred feet massive, fiercely grabbing at Ling Chen.
Beside him, the Capture God also struck fiercely; suddenly he took out a long-tubed hidden weapon, infused it with True Qi, and blew fiercely, a bizarre hidden weapon abruptly tore through the void, seemingly disappearing into it, and shot violently towards Ling Chen!
Faced with this scene, Ling Chen could only draw his sword, yet just as he was about to fully engage, a vast wave of energy suddenly surged from high sky behind him!
Ling Chen felt the surroundings suddenly turn icy cold. In his vision, both the massive claw shadow and the incredibly fast hidden weapon were visibly frozen, ultimately turning into ice sculptures right in front of Ling Chen’s face, helplessly dropping in front of him.
"What?"
Seeing this, the gray-robed elder’s eyes abruptly narrowed; his attack so easily frozen. Who could possess such terrifying means?
Not far behind Ling Chen, unbeknownst to him, a white-haired woman had appeared. Right now, Ling Chen turned around, his gaze falling on that figure.
In his line of sight, the woman stood on an ice lotus, her pupils deep, her complexion snow-like; she appeared entirely snow-white, untouched by dust. The white-clothed woman’s beauty was naturally stunning, yet Ling Chen had no mind to appreciate it. Meeting her gaze for a brief moment, he felt as if he fell into an ice cave, his body trembled involuntarily.
This was a true ice maiden.
Ling Chen was surprised, guessing this likely had something to do with her cultivation technique.
The woman looked only in her thirties, yet Ling Chen couldn’t sense the depth of her cultivation; her cultivation must be at a terrifying level.
Even the gray-robed elder and the God-catchers couldn’t compare to the white-clothed woman.
"My Lingyue Island is not a place for the three of you to fight. You have ten breaths to leave, or you’ll become three ice sculptures, part of the scenery here in Lingyue Island."
The white-clothed woman swept them coldly; her icy voice reverberated, chilling one’s heart.
"We did not intentionally offend; Your Excellency, please don’t be upset. We will leave right away."
The gray-robed elder quickly bowed to the white-clothed woman; he had no doubt she possessed the ability to freeze them into ice sculptures. Yet, as he left, his gaze fell on Ling Chen, seemingly hinting at Ling Chen to hurry up and leave.
"You have only ten breaths."
The white-clothed woman also glanced at Ling Chen coldly.
Yet upon hearing this, Ling Chen seemed oblivious; he stood there motionlessly, showing no signs of leaving.
"Rather than die at the hands of you two, I’d prefer being frozen into an ice sculpture by this senior."
Ling Chen spoke calmly, seeming fearless.
"You brat!"
The gray-robed elder’s eyes narrowed; his face suddenly darkened, unable to predict Ling Chen would make such a choice.
"Time’s up."
The white-clothed woman did not spare them time; as if keeping track, when ten breaths passed, her eyes suddenly lit with a chilling gleam, and the gray-robed elder and the God-catchers felt the air around them suddenly freeze, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
"Kid, you’re ruthless!"
Ling Chen risked everything, yet the Capture God and the gray-robed elder valued their lives. After a sudden drastic change in expression, they swiftly fled to the distant outer edge of Lingyue Island!
Once the two vanished from sight, the white-clothed woman finally looked at Ling Chen, the corner of her lips curling with teasing intent.
"It’s the first time I’ve seen someone willingly want to be frozen into an ice sculpture."
The white-clothed woman raised her jade hand, and a terrifying cold aura surged within her pale palm; her smile made Ling Chen’s scalp tingle.
Judging from her posture, this white-clothed woman had no intention of sparing Ling Chen; she really intended to freeze him into an ice sculpture.
"Senior, please be slow to act!"
Ling Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed, hurriedly urging the white-clothed woman to stop.
He suspected if he hesitated further, he’d truly be turned into an ice sculpture.
"What is it, begging for mercy?"
The white-clothed woman’s expression seemed unchanged, but her voice remained icy cold, "There’s no chance, and, I loathe men with duplicity. Meeting me today means you’re doomed."
With that, she raised her hand, clearly not intending to spare Ling Chen.
"Wait!"
Ling Chen quickly waved, feeling a sense of panic from this ruthless woman, truly unyielding.
"Actually, I am an old friend of your sect’s Second Elder, Senior Shen Bingxin."
Ling Chen cautiously said.
He had learned from that sinister youth about Shen Bingxin’s identity as the Second Elder of Lingyue Island, which is why he dared to recklessly rush in and say what he did.
"Whom did you mention? Whose old friend are you?"
The white-clothed woman abruptly stopped her technique, the cold aura in her hand seemingly froze and ceased to rise.
"Shen Bingxin, Elder Shen." Ling Chen quickly repeated clearly.
"You’re actually an old friend of Elder Shen Bingxin."
The white-clothed woman scrutinized Ling Chen, seemingly confirming something. Ultimately, her lips curled once more with a teasing smile, "I forgot to mention earlier, there’s another type of man I loathe."
"What type?"
Ling Chen was completely confused.
"Men full of lies!"
The white-clothed woman’s smile vanished, replaced by an increasingly cold expression. Suddenly, cold aura transformed into silk ribbons, abruptly encircling Ling Chen, binding him tight!
