I am an incredibly handsome man, and my fiancée refuses to call off the engagement even at the cost

"You're courting death!!" Old Ghost Jin was utterly enraged. He roared, and golden light burst forth, with tens of thousands of golden fist imprints appearing in the sky, causing it to tremble. These tens of thousands of fist imprints fell like a meteor shower, heading straight for Gu Yan.

Gu Yan sighed softly, his breath turning into white mist. The surrounding air grew colder, his long black hair turned white, and his eyes turned ice blue.

A blizzard appeared in the sky behind him, and tens of thousands of icicles burst forth from it.

Gu Yan didn't know who the golden-robed man in front of him was, but someone who could cultivate to the late stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm must have a remarkable background. In order to prevent the other party from knowing his background, he did not use the moves and magic weapons that Li Bai and Li He had used.

The white ice cones and the golden fist imprint collided in the sky, making a series of loud bangs. The deafening roar echoed between heaven and earth, and the surrounding peaks continued to crack in the shockwaves generated by the impact.

Old Ghost Jin roared, a golden knife appearing in his hand. Wielding the knife, he moved with uncanny speed, instantly appearing before Gu Yan and slashing fiercely at her. The blade's energy was powerful and overwhelming, instantly engulfing the surrounding area.

A long, icy blue sword appeared in Gu Yan's hand without her noticing. The sword was surrounded by a frosty aura, and as she swung it, a phantom of an ice phoenix appeared. This phoenix was incomparably beautiful and carried an aura that made people tremble.

clang!

The force of the impact of the swords clashing caused the surrounding rocky peaks to explode violently, the shockwaves spreading outwards and tearing the heavens and earth apart. But quickly, the entire world was frozen in frost; the shockwaves hadn't even fully spread before they were frozen, and the entire space was sealed off.

What?!

Old Ghost Jin looked shocked; his golden knife was also frozen.

Ice Phoenix Sword—that's the name of the sword in Gu Yan's hand.

This sword is said to be forged from the feathers of an ice phoenix of the True Immortal level, making it a top-tier Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure. The golden saber in Old Ghost Jin's hand is a Spiritual Weapon of the Weapon Master level. Weapon Master level Spiritual Weapons are considered to be on the same level as Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, but even within the same level, there are differences in quality. His golden saber is far inferior to the Ice Phoenix Sword in Gu Yan's hand.

Seeing that the frost on the golden knife was trying to freeze his hand along the blade, Old Ghost Jin quickly used his spiritual power to shatter it. His golden knife shone brightly, and Gu Yan had already approached.

With a swing of the Ice Phoenix Sword, frost sword energy swept in. This frost sword energy was extremely terrifying, capable of freezing even space. Old Ghost Jin's figure shot backward, and where the frost sword energy swept, countless ice crystals condensed and bloomed, as if a spring breeze had swept through the world overnight, causing thousands of pear trees to bloom.

Old Ghost Jin was extremely wary of the Ice Phoenix Sword. Terrifying frost and snow pursued him, and snow trees and ice flowers in the void bloomed with a bang. Wherever Old Ghost Jin retreated, the snow trees and ice flowers bloomed, trying to freeze him.

Left with no other choice, Old Ghost Jin spat out a bead wreathed in golden flames. As soon as the bead appeared, a long cry of a hawk could be heard.

With a flick of his finger, the bead burst forth with thousands of golden rays, as if the sun had appeared, and the snow trees and ice flowers that had spread for dozens of miles instantly melted away.

Old Ghost Jin held the golden bead in one hand. The bead was still burning, and the golden flames flickered gently. His whole body was shrouded in golden aura, and he looked solemnly at Gu Yan, who was dozens of feet away.

"I am Jin Zhan of the Boundless Sect. Who are you? State your name!" Old Ghost Jin said coldly.

Gu Yan held the Ice Phoenix Sword, casually twirled it, held it upside down behind her back, and gently exhaled a breath of cold air: "Cen Shen."

Cen Shen?

Never heard of him. Are there such people in the Four Families and Five Sects?

"Which sect are you from?" Old Ghost Jin believed that Gu Yan could not be an ordinary Spirit Emperor. The sword in his hand was obviously not an ordinary weapon master-level spirit weapon. Moreover, he did not change his expression at all when he heard his name, which meant that he was not afraid of the Boundless Sect. So he could only be someone from one of the four or five sects.

It's more likely that he's from the fifth branch, since his surname is Cen, not one of the other four.

Gu Yan didn't deny it, and smiled at Jin Laogui: "Guess."

Jin Laogui: "..."

I bet you're a damn bastard!

Jin Laogui was furious. He had gone to great lengths to find the Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus and then went to great lengths to kill the two level-seven demonic beasts. Gu Yan had run out and taken his Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus. How could he let this go?

No matter which sect he's from, whatever it is, we have to kill this bastard today.

Old Ghost Jin threw the golden bead in his hand, and the golden flames on the bead instantly shone brightly, its size suddenly expanding, turning the entire world into a sea of ​​fire like a burning sun. That sun then rushed towards Gu Yan.

As Gu Yan watched the sun grow larger and closer, its intense heat seemed to threaten to ignite him. Unperturbed, he also tossed out a bead.

This bead was white with a hint of blue, and it exuded an extremely cold aura. After Gu Yan threw it, it suddenly expanded in size, transforming into an enormous, icy star that crashed into the sun.

The icy star was shrouded in endless frosty mist, which met the golden flames, actually swallowing them whole. The world, which had been a sea of ​​fire, instantly froze again with crackling sounds. Old Ghost Jin stared in shock as the icy star collided with the golden sun.

Rumbling--

With a deafening roar, the shockwave transformed into a storm that swept across the surrounding area, instantly leveling everything. Rocks, mountains, and other structures were all crushed into powder, which was then carried away in all directions by the shockwave.

The shockwaves spread out in layers, reaching hundreds of miles away, with a deafening roar that could not be heard.

Standing there, Jin Laogui, now free of his protective shield, looked terrified and spat out a mouthful of blood. The golden bead, wreathed in dim golden flames, hovered before him.

He stared in shock at Gu Yan standing high in the sky. Gu Yan held a sword in one hand and the Ice Soul Pearl in the other. Her long white hair danced gently in the wind. Her white clothes were pure and holy, and her ice-blue eyes were clear and innocent. She was as flawless as an ice lotus blooming in the snow.

Old Ghost Jin stared intently at the Ice Soul Pearl in his hand. It was another top-tier Ice and Snow type weapon of the Lord level. This guy must be from the Jade Dust Palace.

hateful!!

Gu Yanjin, the old ghost, was injured. With a swing of his longsword, the snowstorm raged again, and snow trees and ice flowers bloomed once more, bang bang bang...

The towering Frost Tree, hundreds of feet tall, is formed from countless sharp ice spikes and icicles. From a distance, it looks like a jade tree sculpted from ice, or a giant ice flower blooming between heaven and earth.

Knowing he was no match for him, Jin Laogui left behind a harsh threat: "You brat, just you wait—"

Then he crushed a piece of jade slip, and the shattered jade slip transformed into a golden dragon that enveloped him before rushing into a void rift and disappearing.
