A land with a regeneration shield on it will regenerate from Burning of Xinye's destruction effect. However, the spell or ability that creates that shield must be cast or activated before Burning of Xinye starts to resolve.

Burning of Xinye targets only an opponent. If that player is an illegal target by the time Burning of Xinye resolves, the entire spell doesn't resolve.
