Murong Lan never expected to encounter Chen Nan here.
Her face drained of color.
Filled with panic and anger.
She immediately pulled up her pants.
"What's wrong?"
Murong Qing and others rushed over.
Murong Lan's face was ashen. She stared at the spot where Chen Nan had been, uneasily saying, "Father, I just saw the person who injured me before."
"He was sitting behind that rock."
Murong Qing looked over.
No one was there.
He gently comforted her, "Daughter, could you have been startled?"
"There's no one there."
Murong Lan subconsciously swallowed, "No, I couldn't have been mistaken. He was clearly sitting there before!"
Although Murong Lan was pampered.
She was not so easily frightened.
A young man stepped forward, touched the rock, then touched the nearby stones, and immediately said, "Master, Junior Sister isn't lying. This rock is warm, proving someone was here earlier."
Murong Qing's expression changed.
His soul power spread out.
Centering on him, it extended for two thousand meters around.
Then he discovered Chen Nan's hiding place.
"Get out here!"
Murong Qing roared.
A streak of sword energy tore through the night, directly striking a boulder more than three meters high.
The moment the boulder shattered.
Chen Nan was sent flying more than ten meters.
But he was still hit by the debris.
Several pieces of rock embedded themselves in his body, injuring him.
"It's really you?"
A disciple exclaimed, "Impossible, I clearly saw Elder Ji Tian chasing you, why are you still alive?"
"Speak, where did Elder Ji Tian and the others go?"
If Ji Tian hadn't been chasing Chen Nan, his appearance here would have been fine.
The problem was.
Ji Tian had clearly taken people to pursue Chen Nan.
Yet he was here.
Did that make sense?
Chen Nan endured the pain and forced the debris out of his body.
His white robe showed a few patches of crimson.
They were constantly seeping outwards.
Looking shocking.
As conspicuous as a bloom of Lycoris radiata.
Chen Nan grinned, "Where did Ji Tian go?"
"You might not believe me."
"They all offered themselves to the heavens!"
The young man angrily said, "You mean you killed Elder Ji Tian? With your Soul Gathering realm cultivation, how could you kill a Transformation realm expert?"
Murong Qing stood expressionlessly on a rock, looking down at Chen Nan from above, his eyes radiating a terrifying cold light, "Young man, you have a lot of nerve. Not only did you injure my disciples of the Bai Shan Sect."
"You even dared to lay hands on my daughter!"
Although he didn't know where Ji Tian had gone.
He didn't take Chen Nan's words to heart.
"Someone, dig out his eyes!" Murong Lan glared venomously at Chen Nan.
She knew.
He had seen all of her.
This was unbearable for her.
She wanted to settle both old and new scores.
Murong Qing waved his hand, "Someone, break all his limbs first, and let him know the consequences of being an enemy of my Bai Shan Sect!"
*Clang clang clang!*
The sound of swords being unsheathed echoed around Chen Nan.
A group of cultivators in the late-stage Soul Gathering realm drew their long swords.
They looked at him with amusement, forming a closing formation.
Chen Nan's expression grew solemn.
With his current strength.
Even if he could defeat these Soul Gathering realm experts.
He would not be able to escape from a Soul Devourer realm expert.
As things stood.
The only thing he could do was avoid a fight.
If he couldn't avoid a fight...
Then he had to stall for time as much as possible.
The reason he hadn't healed his wounds, letting blood seep out.
Was mainly to attract that monster.
After all, that monster knew his scent.
If it hadn't eaten enough,
It would definitely come here, following his scent.
Then he could use that monster to kill the experts of the Bai Shan Sect.
He said calmly, "Sect Master Murong, if you stop now."
"And apologize to me."
"I can spare your Bai Shan Sect!"
"Otherwise, the Bai Shan Sect will be wiped from this world."
As soon as he said this.
The disciples of the Bai Shan Sect were first stunned.
Then a burst of anger and scorn erupted.
A young man became furious, "With your mere first-level Soul Gathering realm ant, you dare to boast of destroying my Bai Shan Sect? Do you think my Bai Shan Sect is a pushover?"
Another person said, "Exactly, my Bai Shan Sect is ranked third in Guangling Prefecture."
"Our strength is transcendent, with hundreds of disciples."
"How can you, an ant, destroy us?"
Murong Lan gritted her teeth, "Don't waste your breath on him. Break his limbs first, then gouge out his eyes and cut out his tongue! I want him to wait for death in despair!"
"You woman truly have a venomous heart!" Killing intent surged in Chen Nan's heart, "If I had known, I wouldn't have been merciful earlier. I should have just killed you all."
Chen Nan was originally a ruthless and decisive person.
But after becoming the Lord of the Immortal Realm.
His personality had undergone some changes.
His patience had increased.
He viewed everyone as his subjects.
Therefore.
Even if others wanted to kill him, he would give them a chance.
But the facts proved.
This didn't seem to work.
Heaven's will is ruthless.
He shouldn't have any womanly softness.
"Die!"
With a roar.
Behind Chen Nan, a young man leaped into the air. He held the hilt of his sword with both hands and slashed directly at Chen Nan.
Chen Nan's hand produced a long saber.
Without looking back, he swung his saber horizontally, bisecting the mid-stage Soul Gathering realm cultivator.
Just as the others were shouting and rushing forward,
Chen Nan produced a black token in his left hand.
As this item appeared.
Everyone instinctively stopped.
Their eyes flickered with terror.
Including Murong Qing.
Murong Lan was even more incredulous.
Murong Qing said in a low voice, "How do you have the Yin Messenger Token?"
"Are you an idiot?" Chen Nan laughed in exasperation, "Why do you think I have the Yin Messenger Token?"
Murong Qing subconsciously swallowed, "You are a Yin Messenger?"
Chen Nan shrugged and said casually, "Not bad, only a fifth-level Yin Messenger."
Everyone gasped.
A fifth-level Yin Messenger was equivalent to a county magistrate.
They were a pillar of strength in the entire underworld.
Let alone Chen Nan being a fifth-level Yin Messenger.
Even if he were a first-level Yin Messenger.
If they killed him, the Bai Shan Sect would face annihilation.
Chen Nan smiled, retrieved the Yin Messenger Token, and calmly asked, "Sect Master Murong, do you still want to kill me?"
Murong Qing's expression turned grim.
He hadn't expected Chen Nan to be a fifth-level Yin Messenger.
After all, he couldn't afford to offend such a person.
Just then.
Murong Lan's voice rang out, "Father, even if he is a fifth-level Yin Messenger, so what?"
"Even if we kill him, no one will know it was our Bai Shan Sect."
"You're right, even if we kill him, the imperial court won't trace it back to us!" A cold glint flashed in Murong Qing's eyes. He gestured with two fingers.
Instantly.
A streak of sword energy like a rainbow tore through the night sky, carrying a terrifying aura and slashing towards Chen Nan.
Chen Nan's face turned pale.
He didn't expect Murong Qing to be so audacious!
Before he could dodge.
The three-meter-tall monster appeared out of nowhere in front of him, blocking Murong Qing's fatal blow!
