"Have you not gone out to play for a long time?"

Xiao Yifeng looked at Little Si and said.

"Since I can remember, I’ve only been out three times. It’s either with Grandpa or with Brother Tianhu and Tianyan. And we never stayed out for long before returning to the courtyard." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Little Si said.

"Only three times? You live in this Holy City, so why can’t you go out to have fun?"

Xiao Yifeng asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I don’t know, Grandpa just doesn’t let me go out casually!"

Little Si pouted, her small mouth rosy.

"No worries, I’ll accompany you for some real fun today!"

Xiao Yifeng said.

"Thank you, Brother Xiao, is it okay if I call you that?"

Little Si looked at Xiao Yifeng with her pure, big eyes.

"Of course, it’s fine!"

Xiao Yifeng replied with a smile.

Afterward, Xiao Yifeng took Little Si to indulge in food and play throughout the Inner City of the Holy City.

Perhaps because Little Si hadn’t been out for a long time, she unleashed her nature, wanting to see all sorts of street stall items and try various foods, all of which Xiao Yifeng fulfilled.

In a flash, more than a double hour had passed, yet Little Si showed no sign of stopping and didn’t seem tired at all. Xiao Yifeng just quietly watched her.

At this time, a group of people appeared on the street, all dressed in white. Eight men with branded faces in the center were carrying a large and luxurious sedan chair.

Inside this sedan was none other than Shangguan Wan’er, the current ruler of the Ice Snow Country, while Shangguan Mengyu walked alongside her with an expressionless face.

"Big brother, does this look good?"

At this moment, Little Si, while looking at a hairpin, didn’t notice this group of people. She picked up the hairpin and turned to walk toward Xiao Yifeng.

Simultaneously, she collided with one of the men carrying the sedan, causing it to jolt, and Little Si almost got hit. Fortunately, Xiao Yifeng caught her in time.

"Are you alright?"

Xiao Yifeng asked, looking at Little Si.

"I’m fine!"

Little Si shook her head.

Meanwhile, the entourage of the Ice Snow Country came to a complete stop, the jolt of the sedan chair caused Shangguan Wan’er’s expression to turn cold.

"How dare you crash into the Empress’s carriage!"

At this moment, Shangguan Mengyu shouted directly at Little Si.

"Sorry, she didn’t know; it was an accident!"

Xiao Yifeng explained.

"Kill!"

From within the sedan, Shangguan Wan’er’s voice coldly ordered, causing Xiao Yifeng’s expression to go chilly.

With just one casual word, they intended to kill, as if taking lives were as simple as a routine task.

"It was just an accident, does it warrant killing someone?"

Xiao Yifeng said, with a solemn expression, looking at Shangguan Wan’er, and beside him, Little Si was too frightened to speak.

"Do you think you’re qualified to speak to me?"

Shangguan Wan’er didn’t even glance at Xiao Yifeng, her tone full of disdain, exuding an overwhelming arrogance.

Hearing Shangguan Wan’er’s words, Xiao Yifeng clenched his fist unconsciously.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Shangguan Mengyu swung her palm towards Little Si, releasing a terrifying wave of cold air.

"Hmph!"

Xiao Yifeng snorted coldly, stepping out as an overwhelming dragon-like force erupted from him.

This punch was delivered without any reservation, unleashing the power from the Eight Great Apertures, Starlight, and his entire body, including the force from his avatar.

Bam!

In one blow, Shangguan Mengyu’s icy energy was completely overpowered by Xiao Yifeng’s Starforce.

She was sent flying, crashing violently into the sedan, with a muffled groan escaping her lips.

"Godmother, I’m sorry!"

At this moment, Shangguan Mengyu hurriedly knelt on the ground, bowing her head towards the sedan.

"Young man, do you really think you’re powerful? You may have performed well in the Dragon List battles, but does that make you fearless, daring to hit my people?"

At this moment, Shangguan Wan’er finally turned her gaze towards Xiao Yifeng, her eyes flashing with a chilling glint.

The cold gleam seemed capable of freezing a person in place. In this moment, Shangguan Wan’er gave off an aura of the untouchable empress, yet she was still far inferior to the true Ice Snow Empress.

"I am indeed fearless. If you want to kill, you’ll have to ask my permission first!"

Xiao Yifeng declared coldly, facing Shangguan Wan’er’s sharp gaze without flinching.

"There has never been anyone I, Shangguan Wan’er, wanted to kill who I couldn’t kill!"

Shangguan Wan’er retorted disdainfully, waving her hand as an ice arrow shot toward Little Si.

Though merely an ice arrow, its power was terrifying, tearing through the void.

The chilling cold enveloped Xiao Yifeng and Little Si, making them shiver involuntarily, with Little Si’s face turning pale with fear.

Bam!

Just then, the Golden Barbaric Bull appeared before the ice arrow, delivering a formidable punch that shattered the ice arrow instantly.

Shangguan Wan’er’s eyes showed a sudden interest as she glanced at the Golden Barbaric Bull.

"Divine Beast? So you’ve contracted a Divine Beast too. I underestimated you!"

Shangguan Wan’er laughed coldly.

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Xiao Yifeng remarked nonchalantly. Having the Golden Barbaric Bull made him feel reassured.

The Golden Barbaric Bull should be able to block this arrogant woman’s attacks. However, Shangguan Wan’er’s strength was beyond Xiao Yifeng’s expectations.

"But a mere Dominator Realm Level One Divine Beast thinking it can stop me, you’re looking down on me too much!"

Shangguan Wan’er snorted coldly, waving her hand.

A terrifying ice and snow orb rushed toward the Golden Barbaric Bull, who still punched it fiercely.

With a loud crash, the Golden Barbaric Bull’s punch hit the ice and snow orb, causing a horrifying wave of cold to spread instantly, enveloping the entire Golden Barbaric Bull.

Freezing the Golden Barbaric Bull solid, turning it into an ice sculpture, no matter how much the Golden Barbaric Bull struggled, it was futile.

Seeing Shangguan Wan’er effortlessly freeze the Golden Barbaric Bull, Xiao Yifeng’s expression changed, his eyes flashing with shock.

He hadn’t expected Shangguan Wan’er’s strength to be so formidable, no wonder she could harm the Ice Snow Empress so. But now that even the Golden Barbaric Bull was no match for her, it was a dilemma.

He had promised Tiangang to protect Little Si, and if anything happened to her, not only would the weapon crafting be undone, but Tianyang would also hold him in contempt.

"This time, I want to see what other tricks you have!"

Shangguan Wan’er looked at Xiao Yifeng and snorted coldly.

Then Shangguan Wan’er struck again toward Little Si, with even Xiao Yifeng being attacked in the sweep.

Xiao Yifeng frowned tightly, contemplating his options. At this moment, Little Si hurriedly crushed a Jade Token.

"Who dares to harm my granddaughter?"

A thunderous roar suddenly echoed—it was Master Tiangang’s voice.
