Time rewound to shortly after Shen Yan had left the Wang Family Grand Manor.
Just as Ling Feng was about to use the instrument in her hand to lock onto Shen Yan’s position, she suddenly stopped.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing this, Su Aoxue couldn’t help but look at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng looked down at the Wang Family Manor below and saw that among the squad surrounding the group of Wang Family experts at the very front, one person was releasing a blinding light, like a small sun.
“The mayor of the base city? I remember you said that the place Shen Yan was going to tonight was related to the Genesis organization, right?”
After a moment of silence, she explained, “It seems I saw this sub-core base city. If what you say is true, then this kid’s plan worked very successfully. Even the mayor personally appeared, bringing the strongest combat squad of the sub-core base city to arrest them.”
Su Aoxue suspected that this so-called Wang Family was part of the Genesis organization.
Hearing what Ling Feng said, she fell silent. Because she knew Shen Yan had memories of the future, she wouldn’t doubt it.
“Sister Ling Feng, let’s hurry and find Old Shen.”
“Alright.”
Not long after, as they gradually approached Shen Yan’s location, the two saw a sudden warm yellow light in the pitch-black garden.
Thus, Ling Feng brought Su Aoxue and floated in the sky, slowly approaching that warm yellow light.
And then they saw Shen Yan treating his own wounds.
Seeing Shen Yan grimacing in pain, Su Aoxue immediately furrowed her brows, a flash of worry in her eyes.
Just then, Ling Feng suddenly spoke, “This kid Shen Yan is tough as nails. With such heavy injuries, not immediately passing out is one thing, but he even managed to use his ability to move such a great distance.”
Upon hearing this, Su Aoxue immediately looked at Ling Feng and asked urgently, “Is he badly hurt? How bad?”
“It’s pretty serious, possibly nearly dead. However, the Wang Family has an S-rank Martial Artist stationed there, along with a number of A-rank Martial Artists. His talent is truly astonishing. Is he really someone who just awakened his talent?”
Ling Feng was surprised, but in history there had been those who just awakened their talent and reached S-rank combat power, so she reluctantly accepted Shen Yan’s strength.
But at that moment, a wave of chill began to emanate from Su Aoxue’s body.
Feeling the cold, Ling Feng couldn’t help but look back at Su Aoxue.
“You’re…”
Faced with Ling Feng’s confusion, Su Aoxue said in a somewhat cold tone, “Good! Sister Ling Feng, do you have medicine that can treat his injuries? The stronger the effect, the better.”
“Hmm… that kind of thing, of course I have it.”
As she spoke, Ling Feng took out an emergency medical kit from her ring space.
“Thank you, Sister Ling Feng. I’ll pay you back for this medicine later. Can you put me down?”
Su Aoxue’s tone was flat, even icy. Seeing this, Ling Feng couldn’t help but take a couple extra glances.
……
Time returned to the present.
“I think I recognize you. No, that’s not right. I must have seen you somewhere before.”
Su Aoxue, draped in a cloak and exposing her original voice tone, stood not far from Shen Yan and spoke in an extremely cold tone.
She had originally wanted to say she knew Shen Yan, but suddenly realizing that her current identity was the ‘Frost Calamity Witch,’ she immediately changed her words.
However, Shen Yan was on high alert as if facing a great enemy, his whole body stiff as he stared at Su Aoxue.
“This… senior, you might have mistaken me for someone else. We don’t seem to have met.”
Shen Yan was utterly dumbfounded at this moment.
He never expected to encounter the ‘Frost Calamity Witch’ at his most vulnerable moment.
It could be said to be a single oversight in a hundred careful plans.
Seeing Shen Yan’s reaction as if a mouse meeting a cat, Su Aoxue’s expression under the cloak froze.
But soon, she returned to normal and began to slowly approach Shen Yan.
The silent ‘Frost Calamity Witch’ and the bone-chilling, suffocating cold.
At the same time, a wave of suffocating chill directly struck Shen Yan.
All of which reminded him of one after another incident from his previous life where he was brutally beaten by her.
Shen Yan couldn’t help but force himself to stay calm, trying to appear very composed, and said, “I wonder why you, senior, have suddenly come to find me?”
“You can’t not recognize me. That day, the canyon, the silver gray grass, the gray mist tide.”
Su Aoxue spoke as if every word was precious, her tone extremely cold.
She seemed unwilling to say even one more word.
“That being said, this junior does have some impression. Oh, right, that day this junior seems to have given you, senior, a bottle of healing potion.”
But before Shen Yan could finish his words, in an instant, a powerful murderous intent began to sweep toward him.
At the same time, Su Aoxue’s hand began to condense countless tiny ice spikes.
The sudden change caused Shen Yan to be stunned for a moment.
He couldn’t understand at all where the murderous intent directed at him from the ‘Frost Calamity Witch’ came from.
This era wasn’t the previous life; they had only met once, right?
Where exactly did this murderous intent come from?
However, this answer was destined to be unanswered for Shen Yan; he would have to figure it out himself.
Feeling the strong murderous intent from the other party, Shen Yan immediately used all his strength to activate his talent ability.
A viscous black substance instantly enveloped him.
He disappeared from the spot in an instant, just before Su Aoxue’s attack came.
Seeing this, Su Aoxue paused in her movement, and her gaze immediately swept around, searching for Shen Yan’s position.
It didn’t take long for Su Aoxue to wait; Shen Yan himself fell out from the ‘shadow,’ tumbling to the ground.
Then he struggled to get up from the ground, as if he didn’t even have the strength to run.
Seeing this, Su Aoxue’s brows under the cloak were tightly furrowed, almost able to pinch Shen Yan to death.
As a result, the chilling aura radiating from her grew even stronger, and even the surrounding trees began to be covered in a thin layer of frost.
Next instant, Shen Yan, who had just struggled to stand, was kicked to the ground by Su Aoxue.
At the same time, her hand began to condense a sharp ice spike, which she thrust directly at Shen Yan’s head.
However, to Su Aoxue’s surprise, Shen Yan did not show any strong desire to resist.
It seemed he had calmly accepted death? But Su Aoxue, who was furious, didn’t care about this at all.
Instead, at the moment the ice spike was about to reach Shen Yan’s head, she shifted its direction, and it grazed his cheek before embedding into the ground beside.
A trace of blood immediately seeped out.
The moment blood oozed from his cheek, Su Aoxue finally saw a flicker of change in Shen Yan’s pupils, and couldn’t help but say, “I hope you remember this feeling of death. Taking risks that are beyond your strength is an extremely irresponsible act toward the people around you. You will die!”
Su Aoxue said in a cold tone.
Feeling the bone-chilling cold, Shen Yan stared at Su Aoxue without speaking.
Seeing that Shen Yan had no reaction, Su Aoxue couldn’t help but punch him hard in the stomach.
This caused him to roll on the ground, dry heaving, his expression twisted.
Su Aoxue silently watched for a moment, then suddenly turned and left.
Meanwhile, high in the sky, Ling Feng, who had witnessed the entire fight, tilted her head slightly, “This… is it domestic violence or… flirting? Truly a strange pair, but it seems more interesting~”
As she spoke, Ling Feng shook her body. The power of the glacial calamity had sucked away the heat, and it was really cold!
