"Die!"
A dark aura surged forth, like a primordial beast, unstoppable.
Song Ziyue and the others behind were stunned. Facing the attack of a Creation God, why didn't Ye Yun dodge?
No matter how confident he was, such an action was suicidal.
"Ye Yun!"
"Master!"
The women shouted towards Ye Yun, their hearts pounding. They wanted him to evade quickly.
But Ye Yun remained motionless, even a faint smile on his face.
"That kid has gone mad, smiling as he meets his death."
"Hahaha, he's scared stiff. The weak are always like this before the truly strong. This is the deterrent power of a Creation God."
"Ye Yun, even if you are a genius, you must die by Lord Hei Huang's hand. Lord Hei Huang is invincible!"
A large number of powerhouses began to praise Hei Huang, awaiting Ye Yun's demise.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the dark aura transformed into the form of a demon, baring its fangs towards Ye Yun.
"Such grandiosity! A Creation God is willing to stoop so low to attack someone from a First-Tier Great World. How laughable."
Just as everyone thought Ye Yun was utterly doomed, a clear, cold voice echoed through the void.
Following that, countless snowflakes descended, forming a barrier before Ye Yun.
The dark aura struck the barrier but was unable to break through, resulting in a stalemate.
Simultaneously, above the void, snowflakes paved a path, and a cold, proud, and beautiful figure appeared before everyone's eyes.
"This, this is the aura of a Creation God!"
"So powerful!"
"It's another Creation God! Are we truly going to witness two Creation Gods appear at the same time?"
Shocked expressions filled the crowd. Many were frozen in place by the sheer might, like statues.
"Hmm?"
Hei Huang frowned slightly. Hearing the voice and seeing the snowflakes, he already knew who had arrived.
"Xue Mian, it's you!"
"Hei Huang, how have you been?"
Xue Mian descended from the snowy path, looking coldly at Hei Huang.
"Hahaha, no wonder this kid was so confident. It turns out you're backing him."
"Ye Yun has extraordinary courage and supreme talent. He is someone I favor. This action was voluntary on my part."
"Hahaha, to be so favored by Lord Xue Mian, this Ye Yun truly accumulated eight lifetimes of blessings in his previous lives."
Hei Huang laughed heartily, his aura swirling as dark energy erupted continuously.
After hundreds of years, he wanted to test Xue Mian's true strength this time.
"Tidal Wave of Darkness!"
With a roar, the endless dark energy from Hei Huang's armor surged forth with a might a hundred times greater than the aura that had confronted Ye Yun earlier.
Instantly, the entire Tianlan City began to shake. This was the power of a Creation God.
"Too terrifying!"
A large number of Heavenly God powerhouses trembled uncontrollably under this absolute and terrifying pressure.
Seeing this, Song Ziyue unleashed her power as a supreme god to protect Xing Meng, Lin Xueyan, and the other women.
Meanwhile, Ye Yun was surrounded by a crystal wall, rendering him unshaken by even the strongest dark energy.
"Presumptuous!"
Xue Mian's cold, delicate voice snapped. She extended a slender finger, and a single snowflake shot out.
Though it was just one, the divine power contained within surpassed all previous attacks, for it held the laws of the Snow Domain.
This was a martial intent that transcended the God Domain. As the intent unfolded, heaven and earth trembled.
That single snowflake seemed to contain a world. The moment the dark energy came into contact with it, it was absorbed into the Snow Domain's rule space.
"Huh?"
Hei Huang was greatly surprised. He hadn't expected Xue Mian's mastery of rule intent to be so formidable.
Seeing the dark energy dissipate completely, everyone finally realized the overwhelming power of Lord Xue Mian. Even when facing Hei Huang, she held the advantage.
"Hei Huang, the Piaoxue Domain has allied with the Myriad Realms. If you kill Ye Yun now, you are making an enemy of me. Are you truly determined to go all out?"
"Hahaha, Xue Mian, although you are a woman, I admire your courage!"
Hei Huang laughed a few times, then issued an order.
"All personnel from the Hei Hun Domain and those who have surrendered, retreat!"
"Yes!"
Led by Elder Xia and the Three Death-Reaping Elders, the Hei Hun Domain's army ascended rapidly, then entered the Hei Hun warship and vanished into the void.
"Thank you, Lord Xue Mian."
Watching Hei Huang's army depart, Ye Yun stepped forward and bowed to Xue Mian.
"We are allies, why thank me?"
"I didn't expect Hei Huang's strength to be so formidable. I am surprised."
"Ye Yun, what did you see in him?"
"This Hei Huang is not his true body!"
These words sent shockwaves through the entire audience.
The aura earlier was so powerful, yet Ye Yun claimed it wasn't Hei Huang's true form. How strong would Hei Huang be if his true body descended?
"Ye Yun, is that true? Even this wasn't his true body?"
Song Ziyue asked in astonishment. She hadn't seen through Hei Huang's disguise at all.
"Miss Song, what was encased within the Hei Huang battle armor was merely a wisp of Hei Huang's spiritual consciousness. Therefore, he couldn't fight for long and had no chance of victory against Lord Xue Mian, so he could only retreat."
"So that's how it is. No wonder Hei Huang backed down so quickly."
Song Ziyue shook her head. She mused that Ye Yun, despite being only a middle-tier supreme god, had keener eyesight than her. Was this the gap in talent?
"Master, are you alright?"
"Of course. I can't let my little disciples see me make a fool of myself."
"Heh heh, we knew Master was the best. You can even invite a major figure like a Creation God. You're simply invincible!"
The disciples flocked over, looking at Xue Mian with curious eyes. It was their first time seeing a Creation God, and her lofty, cold aura made them feel somewhat awkward.
"These are all your disciples?"
"Yes, Lord Xue Mian."
"You're quite something. All your disciples are beautiful women. You didn't do it on purpose, did you?"
"Lord Xue Mian, please don't misunderstand. This is all a coincidence, purely a coincidence!"
Ye Yun felt a bit awkward, as he knew very well from Xue Mian's slight shake of her head that she wouldn't believe him.
"Ye Yun is a master flirt. Lord Xue Mian, please don't be fooled."
"That's right. This kid has many cunning tricks. Lord Xue Mian, you must be careful!"
Unexpectedly, Song Ziyue and Xing Meng chimed in, each adding a remark that almost made Ye Yun fall over.
"Ah?"
Lord Xue Mian also had a headache. What were these two girls trying to do? Were they hinting that she and Ye Yun had some unclear relationship?
"Please don't misunderstand, both of you. This seat and Ye Yun have a normal alliance."
"Heh heh, Lord Xue Mian, please stop explaining. The more you explain, the less clear it becomes."
