Chu Nan returned to his original appearance, panting slightly. That last strike had nearly exhausted all the spiritual power within him, and he could no longer fight for a short time.

But at this moment, it didn't matter, five rounds three victories, the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect had won!

The whole place fell silent, and for a moment, no one paid attention to the nearly dying Xu Hao. Instead, they all stared at Chu Nan with eyes full of respect.

Especially the disciples of the Canglan Sect, their eyes showed a deep sense of despair.

One person thought sorrowfully, "What should we do? With Chu Nan here, our Canglan Sect can't surpass the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect anymore!"

For a moment, everyone's expressions were gloomy, really not wanting to accept this cruel fact.

After several breaths, someone encouraged, "It's fine. He used the Demon Blood Mutation Technique, his future is already cut off. As long as one of us breaks through the sixth level of the Yang Wheel..."

"No, as long as someone breaks through to the seventh level of the Yang Wheel, we will definitely be able to defeat him!"

Chu Nan's single strike defeat of Xu Hao was too shocking; they felt that the sixth level was not secure, and the seventh level was necessary for a guaranteed victory.

Their eyes turned back to Xu Hao, hurriedly getting on stage to carry him down for treatment.

Seeing this scene, Chu Nan coldly said, "Wait! According to the bet, when your Canglan Sect disciples see us from the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect, shouldn't you walk with your heads down!"

His words made the members of the Canglan Sect stiffen, somewhat regretting having made this bet.

Although it was not very damaging, the humiliation was too strong.

At this moment, Chen Songyan from the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect laughed heartily and said, "That's right, you should leave with your heads down!"

"Hmph!" A disciple of the Canglan Sect snorted discontentedly, but still left with their heads down in humiliation.

Once everything was resolved, Chu Nan jumped off the stage.

Zheng Yao, Chen Songyan, and others gathered around, expressing their congratulations. This time, Chu Nan defeating the strongest of the Canglan Sect, Xu Hao, had also made him famous.

"Truly the Yangtze River's waves push the old ones; every wave is higher than the last. Compared to you, we seem to have cultivated to no avail," Chen Songyan said, shaking his head in resignation.

Chu Nan maintained a humble attitude toward his fellow sect members, saying, "It was just a stroke of luck."

At this moment, Jiang Yixing had already recovered from his injuries, and he said to Chu Nan, "Thanks a lot for helping me release some anger this time. Cui Yan was too insidious, and his cultivation being crippled is well-deserved!"

Zheng Yao, on the other hand, looked at Chu Nan with complete admiration. She felt that as long as Chu Nan was around, there was no difficulty that couldn't be solved.

For a moment, everyone started chatting, and then they all headed to Chen Songyan's place to celebrate with a banquet and drinks.

Chen Songyan was the grandson of Chen Kaiyang and was the disciple with the highest cultivation and the longest tenure in the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect at the Cyan Profound Martial Academy, naturally becoming the leader of a group of disciples from the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect.

But after today, this situation would be broken.

Chu Nan, who defeated Xu Hao in a single strike, would become the true backbone of the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect in the Cyan Profound Battle Mansion.

Although Chen Songyan had an illustrious status, in the world of martial artists, strength is the hard reality, and Chu Nan was also Chen Kaiyang's only disciple, which was no inferior to Chen Songyan, possibly even higher.

After all, Chen Kaiyang had many descendants, but only one disciple.

Everyone naturally centered around Chu Nan, even Chen Songyan had to concede.

They stayed up all night, and it wasn't until noon the next day that the disciples of the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect returned to their respective residences.

But Chu Nan headed to the Mansion Master's residence.

Many days had passed since the agreement with Lin Haoyang, and not going by now would be impolite.

...

Cyan Profound Mansion, Mansion Master's Residence.

Chu Nan arrived at the entrance of the Mansion Master's residence and explained his purpose to the guards at the door.

After the guard reported, Chu Nan was led by the servants of the Mansion Master's residence to the main hall, where he found Lin Haoyang waiting there early.

Upon seeing Chu Nan, Lin Haoyang immediately greeted him warmly, "Chu Nan, you've been absent for so long, I thought you were going to miss our appointment."

On hearing this, Chu Nan immediately explained his experiences over the past few days, including being punished by Elder Xing to face the wall.

Lin Haoyang instantly understood but wasn't surprised. In the process of a martial artist becoming strong, besides cultivation, one must inevitably provoke countless enemies.

A mediocre person would be killed by enemies, but a strong person would grow stronger through repeated dangers!

He had already noticed that in just a few days, Chu Nan's cultivation had increased from the second level of the Yang Wheel to the third.

This talent even made Lin Haoyang feel inferior by comparison.

After a brief chat, Chu Nan asked a question he was more concerned about, "Mansion Master, what happened with the Overlord Body Sect?"

"I knew you would ask," Lin Haoyang's smile immediately turned serious, and he let out a deep sigh.

Seeing Lin Haoyang's expression, Chu Nan instantly understood that the attempt to eliminate the Overlord Body Sect had failed.

Lin Haoyang explained, "I brought the corpse of Zhu Longhu to question the Overlord Body Sect. Zhu Longhu had also absorbed essence blood for cultivation, and his corpse was the best evidence. Logically, the Overlord Body Sect was unable to refute it and should have been destroyed."

"But I hadn't expected the Overlord Body Sect to have connections, and it's with a strong clan from the Imperial Capital!"

Hearing this, Chu Nan's pupils shrank, the Overlord Body Sect actually had connections with powerful people!

Lin Haoyang said, "The strong from the Imperial Capital protected the Overlord Body Sect and put all the blame on Zhu Longhu, leaving everyone else in the Overlord Body Sect spotless."

"With a cloud of strong figures in the Imperial Capital and their strong background, I couldn't provoke them, so I just had to drop it."

Upon hearing this, Chu Nan felt somewhat disappointed. Such an opportunity to eliminate a strong enemy disappearing like this was indeed regrettable.

But he was not angry; instead, he showed a fighting spirit, saying, "The Overlord Body Sect may escape this time, but they won't escape the next. When I am strong enough, I will ensure there is no more Overlord Body Sect in Qingxuan Province!"

Lin Haoyang was deeply impressed by Chu Nan's ambition and then said, "Although the Overlord Body Sect was not destroyed, you can rest assured about the Cyan Rattan Sect."

"I've already warned the Overlord Body Sect, and there won't be any danger to the Cyan Rattan Sect for several years."

This matter was actually easy to handle, since in the eyes of the Overlord Body Sect, except for women, the Cyan Rattan Sect had no other value left, and it was not worth the risk of offending the Mansion Master to deal with the Cyan Rattan Sect.

Chu Nan nodded silently, and at this moment Lin Haoyang said, "Since you came to the Cyan Profound Mansion, you seem to have not seen Lin An yet."

"Actually, Lin An has mentioned you as a friend more than once. Since you are here today, it's perfect for the two of you to meet up."

As he finished speaking, a familiar figure appeared, and Lin An strode in. Upon seeing Chu Nan, he complained, "Dad, why didn't you tell me Chu Nan was coming?"

"If it wasn't for the maid telling me Chu Nan was here, I wouldn't know anything."

Then Lin An turned to Chu Nan and said, "Chu Nan, you're truly a divine dragon appearing and disappearing. If it weren't for coming here, I wouldn't know when I could find you!"

Chu Nan chuckled silently, also showing a bit of surprise in his expression. Lin An's cultivation had already reached the eighth level of the Spirit Pill, and it seemed he wasn't far from the Yang Wheel.

The promotion speed of the king-tier martial vein was indeed astonishing.
