Leng Yinyin could be sure, absolutely, and definitively.
The attack just now had indeed landed on Chen Nan.
But.
He was unharmed, while her elder sister, dozens of meters away, spat blood.
This made her feel incredulous.
Because she had never heard of such absurd and bizarre a thing.
Let alone witnessed it with her own eyes.
It would be understandable if it were a super expert.
But Chen Nan was merely a cultivator at the fifth level of the Caiyin Realm!
Chen Nan spread his arms, fully savoring the abilities his domain granted him, and grinned, "Because, this is my domain!"
"Within my domain, even you can hardly injure me."
"If you don't believe me, you can try."
Chen Nan could not replicate the technique of "borrowing a sword to slay an enemy."
However.
He could, through the power of his domain, transfer the attacks he endured onto Leng Qingmei.
Of course.
He was also certain.
That one day, he would be able to borrow a sword to slay an enemy.
"I shall try then, to see if your abilities are truly that powerful." Leng Yinyin naturally did not believe it. With a wave of her hand, a long sword appeared in her grasp.
The sword body shimmered with a cold glint, like a viper's flickering tongue.
Whoosh!
She thrust the sword forward.
It instantly struck Chen Nan's shoulder. But it did not draw a single drop of blood.
Instead, Leng Qingmei, far in the distance, let out a pained scream, "Sister, stop quickly, don't do this!"
Leng Yinyin suddenly looked towards her sister.
She saw that her sister's shoulder had inexplicably developed a貫穿 (guànchuān - penetrating) wound, bleeding profusely.
It looked shocking.
And the location where her sister was injured was precisely where she had 'stabbed' Chen Nan.
"How could this be?" Leng Yinyin's pupils were filled with horror. The events of today had overturned her understanding of everything.
Leng Qingmei, far away, also felt utter despair.
She had thought.
Her sister's attack could suppress Chen Nan.
But she had never dreamed that the man she had divorced with a letter of repudiation would possess such terrifying strength!
Even her sister, at the peak of the Ju Hun Realm, was no match for him.
At this moment.
Leng Qingmei felt a surge of intense regret.
She regretted not heeding Chen Nan's words and involving her sister in this mess.
This was now troublesome!
"Sister, you must leave this place, as far as possible." Leng Yinyin shouted. She had read about domains in ancient texts. A domain, by its nature, had a covered area.
This meant.
As long as her sister left this domain.
She might have a chance to defeat Chen Nan.
At the same time.
She also understood why Chen Nan had actively charged forward earlier.
His intention was to draw them both within the coverage of his domain.
Leng Qingmei's eyes lit up, and she immediately darted into the distance.
Even though she was injured, she was, after all, a peak expert of the Caiyin Realm.
Seeing Leng Qingmei about to leave his domain.
Chen Nan immediately pursued her.
While Leng Qingmei was within his domain, he could still resist Leng Yinyin.
And he could transfer the attacks he endured to her.
But if she were gone.
How could he transfer the received attacks?
He would be the one getting injured then.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Leng Yinyin saw through Chen Nan's intentions and thrust her sword out.
But just as the long sword was about to pierce Chen Nan's chest.
She instinctively withdrew her sword.
Fearing that her attack might injure her sister.
Without any further thought.
She produced a bamboo flute from her hand.
She placed it by her lips and began to play rapidly.
A low, melodious flute melody slowly emerged.
Chen Nan instantly felt his head splitting with pain.
It was as if countless steel needles were piercing his brain simultaneously.
Or as if someone was hammering at his skull with a pickaxe, trying to bore through it.
"I truly didn't expect your flute-playing skills to be so formidable!" Chen Nan retreated rapidly. He needed to evade Leng Yinyin's attack, otherwise, he might very well perish here today.
Leng Yinyin saw through his intention and maintained a distance from Chen Nan.
However.
Her heart was churning like a stormy sea.
As a peak expert of the Ju Hun Realm.
Her strength was beyond doubt.
Especially when she played the Soul Controlling Flute, not to mention Chen Nan, a cultivator at the fifth level of the Caiyin Realm.
Even the senior disciples at the Huaxing Realm in her sect would suffer splitting headaches, becoming like fish on a chopping board, at her mercy.
Chen Nan's current state was indeed disheveled.
But the fact that he could still escape made her feel incredulous.
This fully demonstrated that Chen Nan's soul power was very strong.
Not inferior to an ordinary Huaxing Realm expert.
"No, this constant evasion won't solve anything!"
"I must find a way to retaliate!"
Chen Nan's face was ashen, and he was in excruciating pain.
His figure vanished from Leng Yinyin's sight like a ghost.
Just as he reappeared behind Leng Yinyin, intending to launch a surprise attack.
Leng Qingmei's voice echoed from afar, "Watch your back!"
Leng Yinyin decisively turned around. The flute melody suddenly became rapid and piercing.
Even though Chen Nan's fist was already before her.
He felt an invisible energy, like a surging tide, rush towards him.
Due to being too close to Leng Yinyin.
The pain he endured instantly doubled.
It was indescribable in words.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, using the law of space to teleport over a hundred meters away.
Otherwise.
His head might have exploded!
"Just as I thought, you are useless apart from your domain." Leng Yinyin's disdain intensified, "You don't even dare to confront me head-on."
Chen Nan grinned, a weak smile, "Whether I'm tough or not, you should ask your sister."
"Or find an opportunity to let you experience my strength!"
"You court death!"
Leng Yinyin was enraged. With a sweep of her hand, her long sword tore through the sky, like a beam of light slashing towards Chen Nan.
Chen Nan retreated rapidly.
At the same time.
The accumulated water on the ground instantly transformed into a shield in the air.
However.
The shield could not withstand the fatal blow of a peak Ju Hun Realm expert.
Thus.
He controlled the accumulated water on the ground to transform into a tornado that shot up into the sky.
Using centrifugal force, he managed to parry Leng Yinyin's attack.
Sending her sword flying into the distance.
At the same time.
He controlled the rainwater to form countless vines, which coiled towards Leng Yinyin.
"A mere parlor trick, daring to show off in front of me?" Leng Yinyin said coldly, allowing the vines formed by the rainwater to entwine her body.
Then, her body trembled, and a terrifying Yin Qi instantly broke through Chen Nan's attack.
She then unleashed a palm strike.
Chen Nan spat blood and fell to the ground, splashing a patch of rainwater.
Facing a peak Ju Hun Realm expert, he was no match at all.
Moreover, there were no living beings nearby to transfer the endured attacks to.
Leng Yinyin looked at her sister in the distance and asked, "Sister, tell me, what should we do with this person?"
"Should we kill him directly?"
Leng Qingmei's eyes were filled with ferocity, "Chen Nan, if you are willing to pledge allegiance to me and become my servant, I can let Yinyin spare your life."
"You are merely my plaything, nothing more!" Chen Nan spat out a mouthful of blood hatefully, "What right do you have to make me pledge allegiance to you?"
"If that's the case, then you die!" Leng Yinyin's killing intent flared. With a casual wave, her long sword flew back into her hand.
Just as she thrust the sword towards Chen Nan's chest.
A furious roar exploded in the air like thunder, "You unfilial wretch, you dare to kill my brother?"
