Qin Chuan wasn't really affected, just slightly, but it still shocked him.
After all, very few people could make him feel uneasy with just a glance, which meant the other person's strength was no less than the woman's.
Qin Chuan didn't know the woman's or the head steward's strength, whether they surpassed the Immortal Emperor realm, but they were certainly not those who had just entered the Immortal Emperor realm.
For example, Cang Lan and the City Lord of Tongtian, although they were Immortal Emperors, Qin Chuan could see their level of strength.
In this situation, Qin Chuan's words were a huge offense, because he had no right to speak.
This was disrespecting the strong. If the two sides really wanted to settle things, they could force the woman to kill Qin Chuan, but that was impossible now, though the man could do it himself.
"Who is he?" the middle-aged man from the Ba family asked.
His eyes were fixed on Qin Chuan, not with sharpness or malice, but with a calm before the storm that made people uneasy.
"Who he is, we can talk about it later. Now let's talk about our business," the woman said, subtly shifting her body to shield Qin Chuan behind her.
Qin Chuan smiled bitterly. He now needed this woman's protection, a feeling he couldn't quite describe.
Men generally disliked this feeling, especially in front of women they liked.
But it wasn't entirely like that; having such a woman protect him was a sense of accomplishment. Yet, deep down, men all desired to be strong.
"Ten thousand years have passed. Why bother? You must have only recently awakened. Why not live a good life?" The man from the Bafu mansion looked at the woman with a hint of regret.
"This is my fate. I'm here today to seek justice. The meaning of my life is revenge," the woman said softly.
The man from the Bafu mansion trembled slightly. He knew how terrifying the woman's talent was. For over ten thousand years, he had been worried about this day. In fact, it wasn't just him; everyone involved had been worried.
After all, this daughter of the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Clan was no ordinary person. When they learned they hadn't seen this young lady, everyone felt uneasy.
However, with time, the unease had faded, especially after so long. But unexpectedly, after ten thousand years, they sensed the fluctuations of the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Clan's aura again.
At that moment, they knew this woman had been reborn. They didn't know who had rescued her, but they could guess roughly.
After all, only a handful of those who had escaped the net and had a particularly deep connection with the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Clan survived.
"Ten thousand years have passed. Do you think you can still take revenge? Your current strength is insufficient," the domineering man said, looking at the woman.
"How will I know if I don't try?" the woman said confidently.
"Since it's inevitable, then come on. I want to see what you're capable of to kill me." The domineering man's face was now somewhat ferocious.
This showed that he was not at peace; his ferocity wasn't hatred, but rather fear—fear of this woman.
Although Qin Chuan couldn't sense the strength of the woman and the domineering man, he could sense who was stronger.
In terms of strength level alone, the woman was probably lower than the domineering man, but in actual combat, it was hard to say. For example, the phoenix in the sky couldn't be ignored.
The domineering man's ferocious and fearful expression might be due to the phoenix.
The woman reached out and grabbed Qin Chuan's sleeve, leaping into the air. With a casual wave of her hand, the world instantly shifted.
This was her domain!
Similar to Qin Chuan's Golden Divine Prison, it was her own world, a battle world—an incredibly powerful ability.
However, any flaws in this ability could be quickly exploited. If the opponent couldn't break it, they could also use their own domain, creating a domain within a domain. This was a clash of domains; the stronger one's domain would be the one whose domain broke first.
If a martial artist without a domain encountered a martial artist of the same level with one, they would essentially have no chance to fight back, only able to passively defend, and defeat would be only a matter of time.
Qin Chuan was also within the woman's domain. Upon entering, he felt intense pressure, but fortunately, Qin Chuan possessed the Nine Divine Dragons within him, perfectly matching the woman's physique, so the pressure quickly dissipated.
Almost simultaneously, the man from the Overlord's Mansion unleashed his own domain. A faint gray halo slowly spread out from him,
stopping after about a hundred meters.
This kind of domain is a personal microcosm, within which one can fully utilize the advantages of timing and location, and experience a significant boost in combat power.
The battle at this point is essentially a clash between the two domains, with the outcome largely depending on whose domain is stronger.
However, this isn't absolute. There was once a powerful martial artist who, despite lacking a domain, could break through everyone else's domains, thus placing himself on an equal footing since no one else possessed one.
However, the price he paid for not having a domain was increased combat power; breaking others' domains greatly enhanced his own.
This made his actual combat strength terrifying; without a domain, he could easily kill powerful individuals with domains, becoming a legend in that era and still holding a prominent place in history.
But such individuals are extremely rare; breaking a domain is incredibly difficult, even more so than breaking an array.
Qin Chuan, in a sense, doesn't have a domain, but he has awakened it, only his strength level is insufficient to fully activate it.
However, Qin Chuan is currently experiencing many things, discovering many similarities to his own Golden Divine Prison, but his Golden Divine Prison is far more advanced.
The Golden Divine Prison is small, but its power is greater, though its limitations are stronger. It's merely a form of mental torture, and it's difficult to be effective against those with strong mental power, unless your mental power is significantly stronger than theirs.
Qin Chuan was naturally very clear about his Golden Divine Prison and had studied it in detail, but unfortunately, due to his cultivation level, he had never been able to truly try it.
He still couldn't try it now, but Qin Chuan was almost certain that once his strength broke through, he would definitely be able to possess his own domain.
"Be careful!"
Suddenly, a cry of alarm came from a woman, and at the same time, Qin Chuan sensed a huge danger.
In that short time, the Tyrant's domain was broken.
With his domain broken, the Tyrant panicked completely. He didn't want to die, so he set his sights on Qin Chuan. If he could capture Qin Chuan, he might be able to force this woman to restrain herself, or even eliminate her.
It was too fast, and the Tyrant's attack was one he was determined to deliver.
Seeing the Tyrant charging towards him, Qin Chuan calmed himself down. His Golden Divine Eye had already been put into practice, and now it was time to use the Divine Eye's Immortal Might.
Ice Seal Explosion!
Turn Stone into Gold!
She even summoned the Dragon Baby, sending her charging towards the domineering man.
The Dragon Baby was a being at the Immortal Emperor realm; she was a true dragon, and a descendant of a divine dragon.
