"Heaven-Bestowed Divine Body? So this woman is actually a Heaven-Bestowed Divine Body?"
"Then what she just used… was that the legendary Heaven-Bestowed Divine Power?"
"I know — I remember now! They said that a while back, an anomaly of ice and snow sealing the sky appeared over the Eastern Seaboard. That anomaly must have been caused by her!"
"Right! I saw that anomaly with my own eyes. Come to think of it, it looked remarkably similar to the techniques she just displayed. So she really is a genuine Heaven-Bestowed Divine Body…"
"Incredible — so this is what a true Heaven-Bestowed Divine Body is? She's only at the third rank of the Martial King realm, yet even seventh-rank Martial Kings have to steer clear of her?"
Sure enough, Murong Mingtian's words brought instant clarity to everyone present. The gazes they turned toward Dantai Xue were a mixture of shock and dread, growing extremely wary.
Because unlike Ziling, Dantai Xue was different. Ziling had the Heaven Restricting Pill inside her — her Heaven-Bestowed Divine Power had been sealed since childhood, and she possessed none of the legendary strength. But Dantai Xue was clearly a true Heaven-Bestowed Divine Body — a genius who had truly received the blessing of the heavens.
"Ha! Truly worthy of being called a prodigy. It seems now you do have the capital to negotiate with me." At that moment, Jiang Qisha suddenly laughed and turned his gaze toward Zhao Yuetian. "Junior Brother, release the prisoners."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuetian hurriedly shot into the Piaomiao Immortal Peak. Moments later, when he reappeared, a large crowd of people followed behind him.
"What's this?" Many of those present were stunned when they saw the group, because they recognized the people behind Zhao Yuetian.
Among them were Chunwu, Xiayu, Qiuzhu, Dongxue, and Yan Ruyu — the five disciples of the Piaomiao Immortal Peak — as well as numerous guardians of the Immortal Peak.
Besides these guardians, there were also Su Rou, Su Mei, Zhang Tianyi, and Jiang Wushang — people closest and most beloved to Chu Feng.
However, at this moment, all of them were bound by barrier chains, the chains linking one to another. Though there were no visible wounds on their bodies, they still looked utterly pitiful.
But once people realized that the people Dantai Xue was demanding happened to be this group, they understood one thing: Dantai Xue, Chu Feng, and the Piaomiao Fairy were on the same side — otherwise she would have had no reason to risk herself like this.
"Release my Junior Brother," Jiang Qisha said.
With a soft hum, Dantai Xue slightly clenched her hand, and the box blazed with radiant light. A figure emerged from within the glow — it was Kuang Bainian.
However, the moment Jiang Qisha and Zhao Yuetian saw Kuang Bainian's current state, their eyes flashed and intense fury surged within them.
For Kuang Bainian was in terrible condition. Not only was he bound by layer upon layer of barrier chains, but his body was covered in blood-soaked wounds. Beyond the fresh wounds, there were also ghastly scars crisscrossing his skin, and his aura had grown feeble to the extreme — wretched in every conceivable way.
It was clear that during the time Kuang Bainian had been imprisoned by Dantai Xue, he had endured no shortage of torture and suffering.
"Senior Brother — save me~~~" Upon seeing Jiang Qisha and Zhao Yuetian, Kuang Bainian looked like he had found a savior and hurriedly cried out for help.
Smack!
But before he could finish, Dantai Xue's delicate hand swept through the air, and a resounding slap landed squarely on Kuang Bainian's face.
The tremendous force sent Kuang Bainian spinning several times in place. When he finally stopped, his mouth opened and a mouthful of old blood sprayed out.
