Chen Nan looked down at the bustling traffic below.
He looked at the city that never slept, bathed in neon lights.
A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "The battle between the Human Emperor of the Immortal Realm, do you know why I survived?"
"Do you know why I was able to be reborn from the ashes?"
Qinglong remained silent.
He hadn't been inside Chen Nan's body at the time and didn't know what Chen Nan had gone through.
Chen Nan said, "Running!"
"I've been running, never stopping."
"At first, everything before me was darkness."
"Until in the darkness, I saw a faint flame in the distance."
"I ran with all my might."
"At all costs."
"I even forgot about time."
"In the end, I grasped that flame, and was reborn from the ashes."
"Have you ever thought about what my fate would have been if I had stood still?"
Qinglong's tone was heavy, "I understand all you've said, but this matter is different from last time."
"In my opinion, there's no difference," Chen Nan looked at the sky, "Since standing still is death, then I will run. Even if I die, I will face it with peace."
"Yes, at least there will be no regrets."
"Some things... the ending is important."
"But some things... the process is far more important than the ending."
He truly couldn't bear to see this world head towards destruction.
He was willing to contribute his humble strength.
If his own flesh and blood could resist the turning of the gears of destruction.
Even if it only stopped the gear for a second, he wouldn't hesitate.
"Alright!" Qinglong finally chose to compromise, "Since you want to take a gamble, I'll go crazy with you this once."
"First, go find Fei Yao and find a way to kill him."
"I'll recuperate in this city for a few days, and I'll contact you when I'm ready."
Speaking of this.
Chen Nan clearly felt Qinglong fly out of his body and then inhabit the body of that狸猫.
It meowed and jumped out through the window.
This city had a dragon脉, which could restore its strength.
"Husband, what happened?" Ye Wanzhi asked cautiously.
Chen Nan came back to his senses, "It's nothing, I just have to go to Kyoto tomorrow."
"It's not important, not important. Come, let's continue what we were doing."
------
Perhaps because they heard Chen Nan was leaving tomorrow.
Ye Wanzhi was exceptionally attentive.
She used all her tricks to please Chen Nan.
------
The next day.
After breakfast.
Li Mu drove over, and then they took a plane back to Kyoto.
After leaving the airport.
They got into a special car sent by the Guardians.
The driver was a young man in his early twenties.
Seeing Chen Nan, he became so excited that his face turned red, and he couldn't speak coherently.
After all, this was the great hero who had crushed the Four Great War Gods.
After his excitement, Xu Xu drove the car away from the airport and said, "Brother Li, I've found the person you asked me to investigate."
"He opened a bar called Gu Gang in Houhai, and it's open until late at night."
"According to my investigation, most of the customers who enter Gu Gang are single men and women, especially women."
"It is said that Fei Yao is very generous to female customers, often waiving their bills."
"Of course, he has his reasons for doing this."
"As for what his purpose is, I probably don't need to elaborate, right?"
"Due to time constraints, I don't have much information.
"But one thing is obvious: those who have been to Gu Gang bar have successively ended their lives in various ways." Xu Xu's expression was very solemn.
"The police have also investigated the causes of their deaths and suspected that Gu Gang bar was involved, but there was no evidence to prove it was related to Fei Yao."
Chen Nan nodded slightly.
As expected.
Fei Yao was likely instigating those who died to commit suicide, thus sending them to reincarnation.
After all, sending people to reincarnation would be rewarded with merit.
However.
His actions were too wicked.
Thinking about it again.
The realm of beasts belonged to the three evil realms.
What kind of good person could control the realm of beasts?
Xu Xu continued, "Gu Gang bar is undergoing renovation these two days, so Fei Yao is not in the shop. It is said that it will reopen tomorrow night."
"Alright, tomorrow night I'll get some brothers and come with me."
Since it was reopening tomorrow, Chen Nan didn't plan to go today.
Since he knew Fei Yao controlled the realm of beasts.
He should kill him directly.
Give him no chance to breathe.
Going today would likely alert the enemy.
Afterwards, he went to a high-end villa complex.
This was his parents' residence in Kyoto.
Although the villa was not as large as the one in Jizhou's Mid-Levels, it was still over four hundred square meters.
It was decorated in a Chinese style, rustic and elegant.
In the dining room.
Chen Shan, Jia Cui, Chen Xia Zhi, Chen Han Lu, Empress, and Chen Nian were sitting around a hot pot.
The family gathered together, harmonious and joyful.
The scene was very warm.
Chen Nan watched this scene quietly from outside the window.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
He really hoped.
This kind of life could continue forever.
Even without him.
They could live happily together.
Enjoying the joy of family.
This further strengthened his resolve to gamble everything and make a desperate move.
"Dad, Dad is back!"
His daughter Chen Nian saw Chen Nan outside the window and ran out with a cheer.
Chen Nan grinned.
When his daughter ran to him, he bent down, picked her up, and lifted her high.
Making the little girl giggle uncontrollably.
"Hurry up and wash your hands and eat," Jia Cui came out, a happy smile on her face.
"Okay!"
Chen Nan placed his daughter on his neck and went to wash his hands before returning to the dining room.
The Chen family did not ask Chen Nan where he had been for the past twenty-odd days because they knew he had his 'faith' to protect.
"Husband, you need to discipline your daughter. This girl has been in kindergarten for half a month and has cried more than ten children. The teacher is about to lose her mind," Empress said helplessly.
Chen Nan was stunned.
Was his daughter so violent?
Chen Nian loudly protested, "Daddy, don't listen to Mommy. It's not that I intentionally hit those classmates, it's mainly because they don't listen to the teacher."
"What's so scary about going to school? Crying and wailing endlessly, clearly asking for a beating!" She then arrogantly raised her head.
Chen Nan was on the verge of tears, "They are already resistant to going to kindergarten. If you hit them again, they will definitely be even more reluctant to go to school!"
"Be good, my darling. We are sensible children, so don't stoop to their level."
"Hitting people is wrong, we must be a law-abiding good student."
Chen Nan was also troubled.
He had no experience in educating children.
Just then.
A gentle voice came from outside the villa, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Chen Shan's home?"
Chen Shan looked outside.
After seeing the figure outside.
He looked as if he had been struck by lightning.
The wine glass in his hand fell to the ground with a 'crack' and shattered into pieces.
