Chapter 1102: Wang Xuanyang's Backup Plan

As the cold voice filled with killing intent echoed through the mountains and forests, a snow-white torrent of Genesis Qi, imbued with a biting chill, roared forth, sweeping towards Wang Xuanyang.

It was clear that this sudden attack caught Wang Xuanyang by surprise. He froze for a few moments, only becoming alert when the cold energy washed over him.

He opened his mouth, and black and white Genesis Qi burst forth, instantly forming a black and white light shield in front of him.

The icy torrent of Genesis Qi collided with the black and white light shield.

Frost spread across the ground like lightning, and the surrounding forest instantly transformed into glistening ice trees.

Wang Xuanyang was sent flying backward, his feet skidding on the icy ground. He quickly stabilized himself with a flick of his sleeve, his expression shifting as he looked toward the source of the attack, his brow furrowed. "Dong Ye?"

Under his gaze, a figure shrouded in cold mist emerged from the night, their eyes piercing Wang Xuanyang like ice blades.

"Wang Xuanyang, how dare you extend your disgusting dog paws towards someone from my Violet Cloud Domain?!" Dong Ye's eyes blazed with murderous intent. She had secretly overheard Wang Xuanyang's intentions earlier, and now she was consumed by fury.

Wang Xuanyang's eyes darted around as he raised his hands. "Dong Ye, if I told you this was a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"

Dong Ye's lips curved into a cold, resolute arc. "From this moment on, within this Ancient Origin Heaven, your Myriad Ancestors Domain is an enemy of my Violet Cloud Domain."

The smile vanished from Wang Xuanyang's face. He hadn't expected Dong Ye to be so unyielding; with those words, it meant a battle to the death.

He narrowed his eyes, a dangerous, cold aura swirling within them, and spoke indifferently, "Dong Ye, you are the leader of the Violet Cloud Domain. You cannot act so recklessly. Do you realize the immense consequences your words will bring?"

"You should at least consider the safety of the thousands of people in your Violet Cloud Domain, shouldn't you?"

However, his threat was met with a torrent of bone-chilling cold. Dong Ye shot forward, reaching into the frigid stream, and directly pulled out a translucent ice-jade bow.

Dong Ye drew the bow with lightning speed, and instantly, an arrow of cold current shot forth. The arrow was incredibly fast, vanishing into thin air in a flash, only to reappear right before Wang Xuanyang.

Wang Xuanyang let out a cold snort and unleashed a punch. Black and white Genesis Qi swirled on the surface of his fist. What seemed like a simple punch caused the void itself to slightly crack, revealing the terrifying depth of his Genesis Qi.

Wang Xuanyang's fist collided with the cold current arrow, causing the void to faintly warp.

However, just as the cold current arrow was about to be destroyed, its form suddenly shifted. It transformed into icy chains that shot out like lightning, coiling around Wang Xuanyang's body like a white python, binding him firmly.

Dong Ye's face was cold as she drew the bowstring with two fingers. On the string, bone-chilling Genesis Qi converged, and faintly, a phantom image of a White Li seemed to form on the icy arrow.

"White Li Seal Arrow!"

The bowstring vibrated, and an icy White Li seemed to roar through the void, heading directly for Wang Xuanyang, who was bound by the icy chains.

This White Li Seal Arrow was one of Dong Ye's signature techniques. Once struck, the extremely cold Genesis Qi would enter the body, partially sealing the victim's Genesis Qi and weakening their strength.

"Heh heh."

However, just as the sealing arrow aimed directly at Wang Xuanyang, he let out a low, cold chuckle. The next moment, a special kind of flame ignited on his body.

The flames were milky white and extremely hot and fierce.

As soon as the flames appeared, they completely incinerated the icy chains on his body.

He raised two fingers, and a flame gathered at his fingertips. With a *bang*, it transformed into a beam of fire that shot out, colliding with the incoming sealing arrow. Both were annihilated.

"Dong Ye, although your White Li Ice Genesis Qi can freeze everything, it's unfortunately useless against me. My 'Minor Yang Flame' was cultivated over the years by absorbing yin to supplement my yang. It's truly perfect for dealing with women like you," Wang Xuanyang said with a faint smile.

Wang Xuanyang had practiced cultivation that involved exploiting women to strengthen his own Yang Qi. When his Yang Qi reached its peak, he cultivated this so-called 'Minor Yang Flame.' If these flames were to invade a woman's body, they could cause her blood and Qi to boil, her body to burn with fever, and her internal organs to be incinerated.

"Then let me try too?!"

However, just as Wang Xuanyang's words fell, the void above him suddenly tore open, and another slender figure appeared. A crimson broadsword slashed down fiercely, accompanied by the cry of a Vermilion Sparrow.

The crimson blade light, engulfed in boundless heat, slashed down towards Wang Xuanyang's head.

The blade glow tore through the air, even leaving deep gashes in the ground where Wang Xuanyang stood.

"Qin Lian?!"

As the familiar cry of the Vermilion Sparrow echoed, Wang Xuanyang's pupils sharply contracted. But there was no time for further thought. He wielded a black and white jade fan, which instantly unfolded. Two beams of black and white light shot out from it, transforming directly into a black and white light-scissor.

The black and white light-scissor collided with the Vermilion Sparrow blade glow, instantly unleashing an incredibly violent Genesis Qi shockwave.

Qin Lian's lithe figure was sent flying backward, landing on the top of a translucent ice tree. Her Vermilion Sparrow longblade was angled, and her eyes coldly stared at Wang Xuanyang.

Wang Xuanyang looked at the two women, his expression turning somewhat grim.

If only Dong Ye had appeared, it would have been manageable, but Qin Lian's presence made him sense an underlying conspiracy.

This was clearly a trap specifically set for him.

But how did they know he would act against Su Youwei today?

"Interesting..."

Wang Xuanyang's eyes were shadowed as he slowly said, "It seems the Violet Cloud Domain and the Tianyuan Domain intend to join forces."

"The second and sixth ranked individuals on the Heavenly Sun List joining forces... are you truly planning to encircle and eliminate me?"

Wang Xuanyang's gaze shifted towards another shadowed area. "And Elder Zhou Yuan is there too, isn't he?"

He had already sensed a faint Genesis Qi fluctuation from that spot.

From the darkness, a figure slowly emerged, staring indifferently at Wang Xuanyang. It was indeed Zhou Yuan.

"Heh, quite an impressive display," Wang Xuanyang sneered.

"But may I ask, how did you know about my actions?"

Zhou Yuan clenched his hand, and the Heavenly Yuan Brush flashed into existence. He said indifferently, "Since you're about to die, why bother asking such questions?"

Since they had made their move today, they naturally intended to completely eliminate Wang Xuanyang to prevent future troubles.

Wang Xuanyang gently fanned himself with his black and white jade fan, a cold glint flickering in his narrow eyes. He chuckled, "Zhou Yuan, while your ambush certainly surprised me, you shouldn't underestimate Wang Xuanyang too much, should you?"

"Do you really take me for a fool, with no backup plans or preparations whatsoever?" He extended his hand, revealing a jade token, which he casually crushed.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of Zhou Yuan, Dong Ye, and Qin Lian all narrowed.

Wang Xuanyang actually had preparations too?!

Just ten or so seconds after Wang Xuanyang crushed the jade token, Zhou Yuan and the others sensed a surge of Genesis Qi erupting from a distance, rapidly approaching their location.

A moment later.

A figure descended from the sky, landing on a treetop.

Zhou Yuan and the others looked at the figure, their expressions subtly changing.

Li Zhu of the Demonic Puppet Domain!

This came as a complete surprise to all of them. No one had expected Wang Xuanyang to have secretly contacted Li Zhu for this operation!

"Wang Xuanyang, you're in quite a bit of trouble," Li Zhu said, his brow furrowed as he surveyed the situation.

Wang Xuanyang shrugged. "I was outmaneuvered."

"Li Zhu, I'll deal with Dong Ye and Qin Lian. You just need to capture Zhou Yuan."

Qin Lian said with a cold voice, "Li Zhu, are you going to meddle in the conflict between our three domains?"

Dong Ye's expression was also unfriendly. "If you interfere, you will become an enemy of my Violet Cloud Domain."

However, Li Zhu's expression remained unchanged in the face of their threats, clearly indicating he had already considered this. "Ladies, since I've already chosen to ally with Wang Xuanyang, I naturally won't be swayed by your threats."

He then turned his gaze to Wang Xuanyang. "Just dealing with Zhou Yuan? That's fine, but since we'll be offending the Violet Cloud Domain and the Tianyuan Domain, your payment should be doubled."

Wang Xuanyang raised an eyebrow. "No problem."

He then smiled at Zhou Yuan, Qin Lian, and Dong Ye.

"Now, we can really enjoy ourselves tonight."
