Chapter 1360: [10Year] An oath

“Father!”

Han Yunxi knelt on the ice and hauled Han Chen upright. “Father, what’s wrong? What’s wrong with you?”

Han Chen’s face was ashen white and his body covered in blood. But he couldn’t be bothered with all that as he looked at the teary Han Yunxi and knitted his brows.

His tone was as frosty as ever as he scolded, “Why are you still crying at your age?”

Han Yunxi was calm before, but she couldn’t hold back and wept at these words. This cold reprimand was so close and familiar! Long Feiye watched from the sidelines, seeing the blood flow nonstop from Han Chen’s body to dye his clothes. He knew that it was very possible for Han Chen to die! The three heads must have used all their strength in the combined blast just then. Even an ice crystal could be shattered to bits, to say nothing of a human.

At this moment, the three clan heads had all drawn their swords. Han Yunxi and Long Feiye could both sense a powerful force and true qi gathering around them. Han Chen also felt it as a source of strength far more frightening than the last one. If this strength struck the ice crystal, the Ice Sea would turn into an ocean and soon flood the grasslands of Northern Li!

“We’ll have to block it even if we can’t!” Long Feiye said icily.

But before he could rush over, Han chen held him back and muttered, “I’ll leave the Ice Sea to you. Help me pass on word to little Yu’er not to wait for me anymore!” So speaking, the seriously wounded Han Chen dragged his heavy body back into the air to shield the frosty ice crystal once more.

At this, the Qi Clan Head spoke up coldly. “Han Chen, go cultivate well. This clan head cherishes you as a good seed, so I’ll spare you once. Get lost this instant!”

Han Chen was much younger than the Qi Clan Head, but they were of equal heights while floating in the air. As he peered at the other man, he seemed to exude more respect and dignity befitting an elder.

He said coldly, “I don’t care what you lot want to do, but those who ruin my Wolf Sect’s Ten-Year Agreement must pay the price!”

“Price? Hehehe, Han Chen, as if the likes of you could fight Old Qi?” The He Clan Head laughed out loud.

Han Chen ignored him and intertwined his hands to make a very strange, even bizarre gesture. No one knew what he was doing, including the three clan heads. But everyone could see him gradually gathering all of his strength in his fingers, making it obvious that he was giving his all. The Qi Clan Head looked at Han Chen from above as if regarding a defeated man who couldn’t measure up to his strength. The He Clan Head was full of mockery as he chortled, waiting to see a face-slapping scene. The Su Clan Head was even more disdainful as his attention focused wholly on the ice crystal.

“What does fatherwant to do?” Han Yunxi had no time to consider the implications behind “don’t let little Yu’er wait anymore.”

Long Feiye knitted his brows as if understanding something. He exclaimed, “Father-in-law, you cannot” But he couldn’t stop the man in time. In that moment, massive power erupted from Han Chen and rippled through the surrounding areas. Realizing something amiss, the Qi Clan Head immediately seized the chance to turn and flee. The He Clan and Su Clan Heads didn’t react in time and disappeared into thin air with Han Chen!

It was a boundary field!

Han Chen used a boundary as a death knot! The art of boundary fields was a secret of the Wolf Sect. Every boundary was akin to an independent, sealed realm. Those whose powers were weaker than the boundary master would naturally be sealed within it as well. To leave, they had to rely on a boundary master to unseal the dimension. However, those whose powers exceeded the boundary master wouldn’t easily enter the dimension. If they did, all they had to do was kill the hidden boundary master to break open the dimension. Thus, the only way for a boundary master to seal in those higher than himself was via suicide! When a boundary master killed himself within the dimension, a death knot was forced. No one would ever be able to open the dimension again. Those who were trapped inside could only die of old age inside.

The He and Su Clan Heads were trapped while the Qi Clan Head landed despondently on the ice, his face pale! He was the leader of the Qi Clan and the #4 top expert in Mysterious Continent! His life was so glorious, so honorable! And he had actually escaped and was glad for the speedy exit. If he was one step slower, he would’ve been trapped forever, which was no different from death.

He had never been left so wretched in his life.

Three people vanished just like that into thin air.

The tremors across the Ice Sea continued, the ice cracking as the snow melted. All of the ice was already floating on a layer of water, which only sped up the rate of melting ice. Han Yunxi and Long Feiye’s feet were already immersed in ice water. They looked up at the sky and knew there was a boundary field above, but couldn’t see a thing. Perhaps the He and Su Clan Heads were only invisible to the naked eye, but Han Chenwas dead. A human was gone just like that? It was as if he had never came here. The rebuke from her father was still in Han Yunxi’s ears, but Han Yunxi’s heart hurt beyond words.

But there was no time to grieve.

The tremors on the ice intensified to the point that people couldn’t stand, as if the entire Earth was about to collapse. At the same time, columns of water rose gradually from the sea, numbering more and more as they grew in density. The Qi Clan Head had already flew into the air, his target the ice crystal. Long Feiye and Han Yunxi chased after him and shielded the ice crystal, standing at a face-off with him.

The Qi Clan Head smiled coldly. “Just the two of you?”

“And the Northern Li grasslands and one hundred thousand herdsmen!” Long Feiye said coldly.

The Qi Clan Head sneered. “If you want me dead, this old man will make it happen!”

Long Feiye held his sword to protect Han Yunxi, who retreated behind him. After all these years of working together hand-in-hand, there was no need for words to explain what the other wanted to do, much less ask for each other’s forgiveness. Currently, what they wanted to do was one and the same.

Long Feiye only muttered, “Yunxi, I’ll definitely help you hold on! You must be careful!”

“I trust you,” Han Yunxi replied.

As soon as they let go of their hands, Long Feiye immediately charged the Qi Clan Head with a sword in a full-on attack, while Han Yunxi turned to release all of the poison water in her poison storage space towards the xuan ice crystal.

Once the poison stayed the ice crystal, she’d be able to take it inside herself!

She refused to believe that the Qi Clan Head could snatch away anything inside her poison storage space!

The Qi Clan Head didn’t expect Han Yunxi to act this way. He gave a start and didn’t even know the water that appeared out of thin air was actually the Water of Ten Thousand Poisons. He only assumed that she was going to snatch the crystal away! He raised his sword and struck at the head of Long Feiye who was blocking the way. The huge force came head-on while Long Feiye held his sword with both hands to resist. He put out all the strength of ninth-level Lustbite energy to carry it off. Even the Qi Clan Head was dumbfounded by the sight. He didn’t expect Long Feiye’s Lustbite energy to be so dense. For a moment, he was glad that Long Feiye wasn’t born in the Mysterious Continent, or else he’d definitely be the land’s youngest expert.

Long Feiye was able to resist the Qi Clan Head’s attack, but blood was pouring out of his mouth. He didn’t know how long he could last, but what held him up at the moment wasn’t his strength, but his faith. It was a promise to Han Yunxi, so it had to be done!

He never liked promises and simply did whatever he wanted instead of wasting words. Even now, he hadn’t promised Han Yunxi too much. Yet today, this promise had to be seen to the end no matter what! He was going to buy as much time for her as he could while keeping her safe.

“Brat! I’ll see how long you can last!” The Qi Clan Head refused to admit it, but he had long been convinced by this young man into admiring him. Of course, even if that was the case, he would show no mercy. For the sake of receiving the xuan ice crystal’s power, for the sake of obtaining the fertile land of Cloud Realm Continent, he had been preparing for too many years. The top three experts of Mysterious Continent had long retired to seclusion for many years. The He and Su Clan Heads were now sealed within a boundary realm. No one else would dare vie against him now!

Once again, he raised his longsword and exploded with maximum power to charge ruthlessly at Long Feiye! The latter spurted out a large mouthful of blood. Just like Han Chen, more blood began to seep out from all over his body, slowly soaking his clothes. At this moment, Long Feiye knew that like Han Chen, he was going todie!

He gritted his teeth and faced the Qi Clan Head who raised his sword for the third strike. He had no thoughts of evading, but simply turned around and exploded out all the power he had left to form a huge circle of energy even as he continued to block the Qi Clan Head’s attack. His only thought was

to look at his woman, his wangfei, his empress, hisHan Yunxi!

Just one more time.

Han Yunxi had no idea that Long Feiye had already turned to look at her. She was activating the detoxification system and focused on the dynamics of the toxins. At this moment, the Water of Ten Thousand Poisons had all been frozen by the ice crystal to solidify around it. The toxins were slowly eroding towards the crystal itself. Han Yunxi was waiting for the ice crystal to get poisoned. Then she could take it into the poison storage system! She only need a little more time!

She was afraid to turn back because she could clearly feel the airflow fluctuations behind her from the powerful forces. She was fearful that once she did, she’d fall apart! Then it’d be impossible to detect the spread of toxins with her mind amiss. As she watched the frozen scene before her, she muttered, “Long Feiye, you have to hold on! You promised me. This time, you can’t lie to meyou definitely can’t!”

Long Feiye, no matter how many times you lie to me, you definitely can’t this time!

In the end, Han Yunxi couldn’t hold out any longer, because she smelled the stench of blood, thick and strong in the air. Her head whipped back. In a flash, she grew stunned as tears poured from her eyes. She realized that Long Feiye had turned around ages ago! He was currently looking at her, his deep gaze so mournful, doting, and reluctant! His entire body was covered in blood, the fresh reds soaking his clothes to drip down. The icy water beneath him had long been dyed scarlet.

“Long Feiye, nodon’t lie to me!” Han Yunxi fell apart

At this moment, Rui’er’s heartrending cries came over the ice, “Daddy, daddy.”[1]

1. Specifically, he says instead of the more formal , so “daddy” fit better here.
