There was something strange about this woman. In the freezing cold, she was wearing only a thin, plain gauze dress.
Because his eyesight had improved since practicing martial arts, he could even see the curves of Li Miaoyun's figure.
This world seemed quite open.
Xu Yunfan silently glanced at Fang Mushan and Li Haomiao. Despite the solemnity in their eyes, they didn't show any disdain for the woman's immoral appearance.
Li Miaoyun said calmly, "Your Highness, the Emperor wishes to see you. Come with me."
A cold look crossed Li Haomiao's face. "She cut off my limbs, threw me into the Ningguta mines, and now says she wants to see me again. Has that woman lost her mind?"
"You are of royal blood, so I cannot leave you stranded," Li Miaoyun said calmly.
"Your Highness said this is only a punishment. Come with me. Once you've gone to the Yangxin Palace and apologized to the Emperor, you'll be the Emperor after she dies."
Li Haomiao could not tolerate such an insult.
He angrily said, "Tell that woman I will return with honor and dignity, and then I'll drag her down and trample her underfoot. I won't be so cowardly."
Li Miaoyun said, "You're a cripple now. What resistance can you offer? Your Highness, let's go."
As she spoke, Li Miaoyun slowly approached Li Haomiao. Xu Yunfan's eyes fixed on her as she passed.
This woman walked without leaving any footprints.
"Treading on the snow without leaving a trace!"
Fang Mushan's expression was extremely solemn. "She's probably already cultivated Qi."
From the external training of muscles, bones, and skin, she advanced from the external Three Combinations to the training of flesh, blood, marrow, and internal organs, the ninth realm of martial arts. This woman seemed to have reached the pinnacle.
Li Haomiao's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold glint flickering in them. He said in a deep voice,
"Treading on the snow without leaving a trace? It seems you are the Saintess of the Tianshu Sect, otherwise you wouldn't be traveling in such light clothing. I thought you had truly reached the pinnacle of Grandmaster status. To cultivate this Qi, your body must have been ravaged a long time ago, right?"
Li Miaojun's expression was indifferent, as if she were one with the world, wind and snow.
With a calm demeanor, she said softly, "A single Qi can move everything in the world. Killing people is like mowing weeds. Our Tianshu Sect has its own unique methods."
Fang Mushan's expression eased slightly upon hearing this. If a truly supreme Grandmaster blocked the door, they would have no chance of victory and would only lie down and admit defeat.
Seeing Xu Yunfan's puzzled expression, Fang Mushan lowered his voice and explained, "The Tianshu Sect has a miraculous technique, passed down for thousands of years, that allows one to cultivate a wisp of Qi even at the Outer Three Harmonies Realm. However, this technique has its pros and cons. While it can achieve things unimaginable, the practitioner's body is extremely weakened in order to maintain this wisp of Qi. Once this is lost, the practitioner becomes no different from an ordinary weak woman."
Li Haomiao glanced back at Fang Mushan and Xu Yunfan and said in a deep voice, "This is a grudge between me and that enchanting woman. You two should cross the mountaintop, descend, and keep going straight."
Xu Yunfan and Fang Mushan listened to this. Xu Yunfan nodded without hesitation and said crisply, "Prince Yan, you may go. I will remember you every year on this day!"
With that, he turned and ran, his steps hurried, disappearing in the blizzard in an instant.
Fang Mushan's face flushed, and he finally bowed, saying, "Me too!"
With that, he fled like a frightened bird.
Li Haomiao's eyes twitched slightly at the sight.
Though he'd been prepared, a wave of sadness still welled up in him at the sight of Xu Yunfan and Fang Mushan leaving so decisively.
He sighed to himself, there are no true friends in this world; they're just people who happened to be in trouble at the same time.
Li Miaojun withdrew her gaze from Xu Yunfan's direction and metnLi Haomiao's pointed gaze with a cold, "Don't worry, I'll let them rest in peace in Jiyun Mountain."
Li Miaojun sauntered over to Li Haomiao and, extending her delicate hand, as slender as a scallion, was about to grasp Li Haomiao's shirt and lift him up. At that moment, Li Haomiao's remaining left hand shot out like lightning and grabbed Li Miaojun's wrist.
Li Miaojun's brow furrowed slightly, a flicker of displeasure in her eyes.
Instantly, veins appeared on her wrist, and an inexplicably powerful force radiated from it, attempting to dislodge Li Haomiao's fingers.
To her surprise, Li Haomiao's seemingly limp arm was now as resilient as an iron hoop.
The breath she expelled was powerful enough to shatter a boulder, but she couldn't break free from Li Haomiao's grip. Li Haomiao slowly raised his head, his eyes sharper than ever, as if he could see into people's hearts.
"Saintess of Tianshu Sect, you must understand that my Li family, the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is a True Blood family."
As he spoke, his abdomen rumbled violently, his throat moving.
Then, a thumb-sized, golden, round pill, emitting a faint glow, appeared in his mouth.
A strange aroma emanated from his mouth, causing the mysophobic Li Miaojun to frown.
Even though she knew he was talking about an extremely rare and precious medicine, deep down, she didn't want to touch it, let alone the scent emanating from Li Haomiao's mouth.
But she also recognized the pill immediately.
"Dao Zong Dragon and Tiger Pill!?"
Li Miaoyun sensed something was wrong. Her hand, as slippery as a loach, grasped Li Haomiao's wrist with a twisted backhand that defied common sense.
Simultaneously, she swiftly raised a finger from her other hand, like a blade, and stabbed it into Li Haomiao's forehead.
Her finger, incredibly sharp, instantly sliced through the air, emitting a piercing whistling sound.
This single finger held immense power, powerful enough to pierce even gold and stone.
Li Haomiao seemed to have anticipated this, tilting his head in time. Li Miaoyun's fingertip slashed across his forehead, spilling blood. A strangely fierce expression crossed Li Haomiao's face.
Then, a shocking scene unfolded.
His broken shoulders and legs suddenly burst open. Like cells multiplying frantically, a stream of flesh and blood danced frantically through the wound like countless tentacles.
Under Li Miaojun's visibly shaken expression, the remains of his limbs were now completely covered in countless pieces of flesh, which rapidly swelled, wriggling, and then rapidly contracting.
In the blink of an eye, Li Haomiao stood before Li Miaojun, completely intact.
Meeting Li Miaojun's slightly dazed gaze, Li Haomiao flexed his limbs, a smile breaking across his flawless, handsome face, revealing his white teeth.
"For those born from the heavens, possessing true blood, achieving this is a common occurrence."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Haomiao charged at Li Miaojun like a savage bull, his arms and legs swirling with the force of wind and thunder.
Li Miaojun remained calm, quickly dodging sideways while simultaneously swinging her palms in a whirlwind of blows, each strike carrying a fierce gust of wind, aiming directly at Li Haomiao's vital points.
Li Haomiao's body moved like lightning, dodging left and right, constantly searching for Li Miaojun's weakness.
