The terrifying aura of the Yang Wheel Martial Artist spread out, and upon seeing the miserable appearance of the first Overlord Body Sect disciple, the remaining two immediately trembled all over.
Who would have thought a youth who looked so young was actually a Yang Wheel Martial Artist!
They lost the will to resist, but didn't want it to end just like that, so they mustered the courage to say, "Who are you? This is a matter between the Overlord Body Sect and the Cyan Rattan Sect, we hope you don't interfere."
"The Overlord Body Sect has a Divine Illumination Realm elder, you should think carefully about the consequences of helping this woman."
At this point, the Overlord Body Sect disciple had no choice but to leverage the sect's background to threaten Chu Nan.
The result, however, was Chu Nan responding coldly, "Are you threatening me?"
Boom!
Another punch was thrown across the air, sending the speaker flying again, hitting the wall like a splatter of mud. Even if not dead, he'd probably be crippled.
Qing Yuer looked at Chu Nan, her face full of shock. Such a young Yang Wheel Martial Artist was beyond her understanding.
She quickly surmised that the youth before her might be a powerful martial artist from the Battle Academy!
The remaining Overlord Body Sect disciples' legs were shaking; they were not afraid of meeting strong opponents, but feared encountering a madman who acted without regard to background.
Though their sect might stand up for them afterward, if they were killed, even a successful revenge wouldn't bring them back to life!
"Se... senior, this was our fault, we'll leave, we'll leave right now!" The Overlord Body Sect disciple knelt and pleaded for mercy.
Chu Nan glanced coldly, then said, "What are you waiting for, get lost!"
The remaining Overlord Body Sect disciples trembled, hastily escaping with their injured comrades, not daring to even lift their heads.
Qing Yuer's gaze towards Chu Nan was full of admiration; this was the kind of power she aspired to, whose words were law and who couldn't be opposed!
The tavern worker was even more shocked; he hadn't expected the courteous Chu Nan to him was actually a Yang Wheel Martial Artist.
Thinking about the gold notes Chu Nan had given him, he was so frightened he wanted to return them.
But without the opportunity to do so, after Chu Nan left the silver coins for the meal, he left the tavern with Qing Yuer.
...
"Thank you so much, senior. Without you, I fear I would have been humiliated." Qing Yuer sincerely expressed her gratitude.
Chu Nan chuckled, finding the term 'senior' made him feel old, so he said, "No need to call me senior, I might not even be older than you."
"What? How is that possible?" Qing Yuer was incredulous, knowing that some powerful martial artists looked young but were actually very old due to life-preserving techniques.
Even if Chu Nan wasn't one of those hundred-year-old people, he should at least be thirty.
Chu Nan smiled and said, "I'm only sixteen this year, just call me Chu Nan."
"What, sixteen!" Qing Yuer's eyes widened, stopping in her tracks, unable to recover for a long time.
She is already twenty-three this year and only cultivated to the fifth level of the Spirit Pill; she thought it would still be fast to reach the Yang Wheel before forty.
But Chu Nan was only sixteen!
"Are you a disciple of the Battle Academy?" Qing Yuer asked with a trembling voice.
Chu Nan nodded, confirming Qing Yuer's guess and accepting the reality.
She felt that if he was a Battle Academy disciple, reaching the Yang Wheel at sixteen shouldn't be surprising.
But what Qing Yuer didn't know was that achieving the Yang Wheel at sixteen was unique even in the Cyan Profound Martial Academy!
"They said you were from the Cyan Rattan Sect, is there still a Cyan Rattan Sect in Songyang County? Can you take me to see it?"
Chu Nan expressed his request, feeling the Cyan Rattan Sect might be more knowledgeable about the Songyang County and Black Fiend Gang's situation.
This was a good opportunity to inquire and investigate.
Qing Yuer did not refuse and directly said, "Young Master Chu saved me, I should be a good host and take you to the Cyan Rattan Sect now."
On the way, Chu Nan couldn't help but ask, "As far as I know, every county usually only has one sect, why does Songyang County have two?"
In the Qin Kingdom, it's not easy to establish a sect; there is a strict review process and numerical restrictions.
Generally, a county only has one sect, yet Songyan County has two, which is quite perplexing.
Upon hearing Chu Nan's question, Qing Yuer's face showed sadness as she said, "You're right, Songyang County originally had only one sect."
"People used to think about the Cyan Rattan Sect instead of the Overlord Body Sect when mentioning Songyang County!"
Then Qing Yuer with great sadness recounted the story.
Originally, the Cyan Rattan Sect in Songyang County was established for hundreds of years and was very powerful; it once had the qualification to participate in the Cyan Profound Competition and could achieve high rankings, almost competing for the top three sects every time.
With this development trend, everyone believed it was only a matter of time before the Cyan Rattan Sect cultivated a Divine Illumination Realm Martial Artist, advancing further in power.
But who would've thought, just ten years ago, the Overlord Body Sect in the Cyan Profound Mansion, after a failed struggle with the Cyan Profound Sect, was left with only one Divine Light Realm Martial Artist, ultimately being driven out of the Cyan Profound Mansion.
As a result, the Overlord Body Sect came to the nearest town, Songyang County, and established a sect here.
With Divine Illumination Realm Martial Artists, the Cyan Rattan Sect dared not provoke the Overlord Body Sect, allowing them to settle in Songyang County.
Unexpectedly, the Overlord Body Sect, used to their domineering ways and with the Divine Illumination Realm elder, swiftly overshadowed all in Songyang County and turned their attention to the Cyan Rattan Sect.
The Overlord Body Sect began persecuting the Cyan Rattan Sect, assassinating Yang Wheel Martial Artists from the Cyan Rattan Sect, snatching disciples, and challenging their mountain gate.
In just three short years, the power of the Cyan Rattan Sect dwindled, with the number of disciples and elders decreasing, even losing the qualifications to participate in the Cyan Profound Competition.
Until now, there were only a handful of Cyan Rattan Sect disciples left, only one Yang Wheel Martial Artist remaining, and besides the mountain gate, there was almost nothing left.
Qing Yuer was nearly in tears as she spoke; she had joined the Cyan Rattan Sect at just over ten years old, witnessing its glory and the complete persecution by the Overlord Body Sect leading to its downfall.
"Now the Overlord Body Sect is inching closer, not only forbidding us to recruit disciples, but also intending to take over our mountain gate."
"I fear it won't be long before the Celestial Crossing Realm has no more Cyan Rattan Sect."
Chu Nan was also quite surprised, knowing only that the Overlord Body Sect had settled in Songyang County, but was unaware of such persecution against the local sect.
This wasn't competition; it was clearly an attempt to exterminate the Cyan Rattan Sect!
But Chu Nan, now just at the first level of the Yang Wheel, had no ties with the Cyan Rattan Sect and found it difficult to lend a hand, having to simply sigh deeply.
Seeing they were getting closer to the Cyan Rattan Sect, Chu Nan asked the question that concerned him most: "Qing Yuer, do you know of any relationship between the Overlord Body Sect and the Black Fiend Gang?"
Qing Yuer wiped her tears and, upon hearing Chu Nan's question, immediately reacted and said, "Young Master Chu, could it be that you've taken on a Battle Academy mission to eliminate the Black Fiend Gang?"
"I advise you to give up, the Black Fiend Gang appears as bandits, but their actual backer is the Overlord Body Sect!"
