"Not good!"
Seeing the Violet-Eyed Lion pounce at Chen Nan!
The experts from the other seven top powers gasped in unison!
The Violet-Eyed Lion's speed was too great!
So fast that they had no time to intervene and rescue him!
Just as their minds were blank, Chen Nan dodged the Violet-Eyed Lion's direct attack like a gust of wind, and then rode on its neck!
At this moment!
He was like Wu Song fighting a tiger!
He grabbed the mane on the Violet-Eyed Lion's neck with one hand, and smashed his right fist fiercely!
No cool magic!
No complicated moves!
It was simple and pure!
Every punch he landed on the Violet-Eyed Lion's head made it cry out in pain!
And the experts from the seven top powers felt their hearts pounded by an invisible hammer!
This guy is too brutal, isn't he?
Facing such a monstrous beast, he engaged it bare-handed in a fight?
Is this something a cultivator at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment would do?
Let alone Chen Nan, even they, the cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishment, would not dare to fight like this!
After all, the physical bodies of monstrous beasts are incredibly formidable!
Meng Wu Yin, the sect leader of the Wudang Sword Sect, muttered, "Why does this guy feel like a madman? Does he think he can crush this monstrous beast with his bare body?"
"Get down!"
Following Chen Nan's angry roar, the true qi in his dantian surged through his meridians!
It actually erupted with a sound like surging waves within his body!
Then!
Under the incredulous gazes of the crowd!
He knocked the Violet-Eyed Lion to the ground with one punch, causing it to fall unconscious!
"Holy crap!"
"He actually knocked out this monstrous beast with his physical strength?"
"Could this guy be a reincarnated immortal?"
"This is way too fierce!"
The experts from the seven top powers were all horrified, their eyes filled with deep fear!
No one expected Chen Nan to have dealt with this monstrous beast so easily!
"Send this fellow to the back mountain and keep a close watch!"
Chen Nan patted the fine robes on his body and said nonchalantly!
"Send it back!"
Cang Ning said with a smile!
Although he didn't know why the Violet-Eyed Lion had gone mad, it was not a bad thing.
Look!
The experts from the seven top powers were all dumbfounded!
Of course!
It wasn't just the experts from the seven top powers who were shocked!
The experts from the various famous mountains also regarded Chen Nan as a deity!
After all, even the sect leaders of the seven top powers combined might not have been able to subdue the Violet-Eyed Lion, yet Chen Nan accomplished it alone!
This feat had already proven his strength!
"Sect Leader Chen is young but possesses terrifying strength. This is a blessing for our cultivation world!" Jian Wu Hen stepped forward, offering a hypocritical congratulation.
He had always been the undisputed number one in the cultivation world.
And Chen Nan's appearance had changed this ranking!
He believed!
If he were to fight Chen Nan!
He would surely not win!
Master Zhang also said, "I was wondering why the Huashan Sword Sect would recommend a young man at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment as sect leader. Now I finally understand!"
Liu Jun Yi of the Purple霄 Pavilion exclaimed, "Sect Leader Chen is young, yet he is skilled in alchemy, divine talisman techniques, and his physical body is this terrifying. It is only fitting that he is the sect leader of the Huashan Sword Sect!"
"You flatter me!" Chen Nan smiled politely and said, "My Huashan Sword Sect has prepared food and wine. Please move to another location and be seated!"
"Please!"
"Please!"
The succession ceremony had thus come to a perfect conclusion!
Just then, Lin Chen found Chen Nan. With an uneasy expression, he lowered his head, his body trembling, "Sect Leader Chen, I, your junior, had no intention of offending you. I did not know Qingxin was your woman. I hope you will be merciful and spare my life!"
How could Lin Chen not be afraid?
This was the newly appointed sect leader of the Huashan Sword Sect, a peerless expert whose strength was recognized by the powerful figures of the seven top sects!
If he had known Chen Nan possessed such terrifying strength earlier, he would never have dared to lay his eyes on Xu Qingxin!
Chen Nan's expression was grim, "Stay away from Qingxin in the future. If there is a next time, do not blame me for being ruthless!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I will definitely stay away from Qingxin. No, no, no, I swear from now on I will not appear before her!" Lin Chen immediately swore.
Chen Nan waved his hand, "You may go."
As soon as Lin Chen left, Huang Rui walked over with a complaining expression, "My son-in-law, why didn't you tell me earlier that you are the sect leader of the Huashan Sword Sect? If you had told me, would I have married Qingxin to that fellow Lin Chen?"
Chen Nan found it quite absurd.
It was clearly you who broke up the couple!
And now you're blaming me?
However, out of respect for Xu Qingxin's mother, Chen Nan could not show his displeasure!
"Isn't it time for the banquet?" Huang Rui said excitedly, "Why don't you arrange for me to sit at the table with the sect leaders of the seven top powers? Although I am an ordinary person, I am your mother-in-law after all!"
"As the new sect leader of the Huashan Sword Sect, if you arrange for me to sit at the table with ordinary disciples, people will laugh at you for not knowing etiquette and respect!"
Even though she had become the mother-in-law of the Huashan Sword Sect!
It was not enough for Huang Rui!
She wanted to sit at the same table as the sect leaders of the seven top powers!
"Aunt Huang, this isn't appropriate, is it?" Chen Nan forced a smile, "Even though you are Qingxin's mother, we are not yet married. Is the title of mother-in-law a bit inappropriate?"
Huang Rui was stunned!
Although Chen Nan was smiling!
She could feel a surge of anger rising in his heart!
She immediately said, "It is indeed a bit inappropriate. How about this, you set up a separate table for me? As a woman, I don't feel comfortable sitting with those men!"
"Alright!" Chen Nan smiled and beckoned a disciple to set up a separate table for Huang Rui!
Then he said, "Aunt Huang, after you finish your meal, please descend the mountain. Although I am the sect leader of the Huashan Sword Sect, the rule of Cangyun Peak does not allow outsiders. I hope you can understand!"
"Don't worry, I will have a disciple escort you back to the capital!"
Huang Rui smiled, "That would be great!"
------
In the blink of an eye, it was evening.
The originally bustling mountain had also become much calmer.
The guests had all left Cangyun Peak one after another.
Chen Nan stood on the mountain peak, watching the setting sun in the west.
Although the setting sun was beautiful!
For some reason, he always felt that the distant setting sun was as striking as blood!
"Is that woman named Huang Rui really your mother-in-law?"
Ruo Lan appeared beside him, quietly gazing at the distant sunset.
Chen Nan: "My future mother-in-law!"
A hint of disgust flashed in Ruo Lan's eyes, "Using her status as your mother-in-law, she asked the disciples to prepare some jade, medicinal herbs, and elixirs, and is now taking them down the mountain."
Chen Nan's face was full of bitter smiles!
What could he do with such a mother-in-law?
"Affection is the biggest tie on the path of cultivation. This is vividly exemplified by your mother-in-law!" Ruo Lan said, "Moreover, I suggest you draw a clear line with them, otherwise it will bring you unnecessary trouble!"
Chen Nan turned to look at her beautiful face, "So, are you concerned about me?"
Ruo Lan's eyes darted away, "I am merely concerned about the future of the Huashan Sword Sect!"
Chen Nan shook his head dismissively, "Affection is like life's tastelessness; there is sourness and sweetness. Of course, I will restrain her as much as possible."
"Sect Leader, I finally found you!" Cang Ning walked over quickly and said with a solemn expression, "I have two pieces of news, one good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear first?"
