Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 165: Lin An's Past


Chu Nan said, "We're all good friends, no need for you to come looking for me, I would eventually come to find you sooner or later."

At this point, Chu Nan couldn't help but inquire of Lin An, "You are the Mansion Master's son and furthermore, you have a king-level martial vein. By rights, you should be in Cyan Profound Martial Academy, at the very least you should be cultivating in Cyan Profound Sect. Why did you go to the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect instead?"

Upon hearing Chu Nan's inquiry, Lin An's face immediately took on a very unnatural expression.

Chu Nan could immediately tell that there were likely unspeakable secrets involved.

"If it's inconvenient to talk about, that's fine too," Chu Nan proactively provided an excuse.

At this moment, Lin Haoyang sighed and then said, "You and Lin An are close friends, and since you joined Cyan Profound Martial Academy, even if you don't know now, you'll eventually find out later."

"Since that's the case, I'll tell you about it, consider it a warning in advance."

Seeing Lin Haoyang's serious expression, Chu Nan suspected that this matter might not be simple.

Lin Haoyang then said, "When Lin An was just born, I dare not claim her talent was unrivaled in the entire Celestial Crossing Realm, but within Qingxuan Province, I believe no one could surpass her."

"He was born with a special Emperor-level martial vein, and even more special, a Red Phoenix Battle Body!"

"Red Phoenix Battle Body?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Nan was shocked. Some are naturally gifted with unique constitutions, harmonized with certain attributes, making their cultivation progress incredibly rapid.

Whether it's cultivation speed or combat power, both far surpass peers of the same level.

For instance, Gu Nianxue's Cold Frost Battle Body is a special physique, and Chu Nan never expected Lin An to have a special physique too.

The Red Phoenix Battle Body is extremely rare, rumored to be related to the legendary phoenix of the lower realms, a strong physique attuned to fire martial arts, capable of burning everything to ashes!

Given Lin An's age and the presence of the Red Phoenix Battle Body, as long as there is a suitable cultivation technique, he should at least be above the first level of the Yang Wheel Realm.

Why is he only in the Spirit Pill Realm now?

"With the Red Phoenix Battle Body, Lin An's cultivation should be very high. Why is he only at the Spirit Pill Realm now?" Chu Nan found it inexplicable.

Although Lin An's progression was still fast, compared to other martial artists with special physiques, it lagged far behind.

Upon hearing this, Lin Haoyang couldn't help but show a proud expression and said:

"You're right, Lin An's talent was strong from a young age. With the Red Phoenix Battle Body, he reached the Yang Wheel Realm a year ago, gaining fame in the Cyan Profound Mansion!"

Chu Nan was shocked; Lin An was similar in age to him, yet he reached the Yang Wheel Realm solely through his physique. Truly impressive.

Even with abundant resources, those with poor cultivation talent still find it difficult to improve.

However soon, a hint of sadness and anger emerged in Lin Haoyang's eyes: "With Lin An's cultivation, he entered the Cyan Profound Martial Academy for training after stepping into the Yang Wheel Realm, which nearly led to his death."

"Two years ago, after Lin An joined the Cyan Profound Martial Academy, he befriended Huo Lingjun, the direct descendent of the Strong Clan Huo Family from the Imperial Capital, and became deeply connected, considering her his close friend."

"Unexpectedly, the woman's motives in approaching Lin An weren't pure. She took advantage of Lin An during cultivation to launch a sneaky attack, seizing the foundation of the Red Phoenix Battle Body with the help of her elders, causing Lin An to lose the Red Phoenix Battle Body and drop his martial vein to king-level."

"His cultivation was utterly lost, and he was nearly killed at that time!"

Upon mentioning this, both Lin Haoyang and Lin An secretly clenched their fists.

Upon hearing this, Chu Nan furrowed his brow, not expecting Lin An to have such experiences, beginning to empathize.

Back at the Chu family, after Chu Han discovered the effects of his Treasure Blood, wasn't he similarly confined by the powerful, continuously deprived of his blood?

Lin An's experience is nearly identical to his own.

With sadness, Lin Haoyang's tone was filled with self-blame, "That Huo Lingjun hails from a powerful clan in the Imperial Capital. I couldn't avenge Lin An for such great humiliation. It's hateful, hateful!"

Chu Nan could understand; to be listed among the strong clans in Qin Kingdom's Imperial Capital, a clan must have at least ten Cloud Sea Realm martial artists.

How could Lin Haoyang, with his Divine Illumination cultivation, contend against such a challenge?

Lin An spoke at this moment, "Father, you don't need to blame yourself too much. I will avenge Huo Lingjun's grudge myself. Even if the Red Phoenix Battle Body was taken away, so what?"

"I will make that vile woman pay the price!"

Lin An's eyes were filled with fury, dreaming of the day of revenge until now.

Lin Haoyang nodded, then patted Chu Nan's shoulder and said, "Chu Nan, I told you about this matter to let you be cautious in the academy; peril lurks there, people's hearts are tremendously deceitful."

"The fact you molded the nine great martial wheels is almost known to everyone, it's hard to avoid someone from plotting against you. That Huo Lingjun is now thriving in the academy, having reached the Divine Illumination Realm long ago, becoming the academy's Saintess. Her status is no less than the academy's elders."

"Moreover, with her strong background, even the academy master has to give her due respect. Being targeted by her wouldn't be a good thing for you."

Chu Nan nodded deeply, knowing that Huo Lingjun was capable of usurping another's war body foundation, she must not be underestimated, and utmost caution was necessary against such a person.

Looking at Lin An, although his resolve for revenge was incredibly steadfast, Chu Nan felt the hope was too slim.

With Huo Lingjun possessing the Red Phoenix Battle Body now and backed by a strong race, such strength can't be countered unless Lin An can recover his Red Phoenix Battle Body, otherwise, he has nearly no hope of revenge.

Later on, Chu Nan conversed and feasted with them, but his mind remained fixated on Lin An and the academy's Saintess Huo Lingjun.

Suddenly, a flash of insight burst in Chu Nan's mind, and he immediately used his spiritual sense to communicate with Kui Guang, "Sword Venerable Master, I want to ask you something."

"What is it?" Kui Guang appeared within Chu Nan's sea of consciousness, his tone devoid of emotion.

Chu Nan urgently asked, "In the past when my cultivation was utterly devastated, my Treasure Blood still helped me reconnect my martial vein, recover injuries, nearly bringing me back from the brink of death."

"If, I mean if I let Lin An consume my Treasure Blood, can his Red Phoenix Battle Body recover?"

Chu Nan always felt his Treasure Blood was mysterious, healing wounds, restoring foundations, aiding cultivation, enhancing martial vein gradation, though he rarely used it for cultivation now, he frequently employed it for healing.

The healing effect of the Treasure Blood surpassed any elixir Chu Nan had ever seen, endlessly profound!

If the Treasure Blood can restore Lin An's damaged war body foundation, wouldn't that give him a chance for revenge?

Kui Guang was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Treasure Blood can indeed restore Lin An's war body foundation, but you must think it through."

"With your cultivation progress, the effect of the Treasure Blood is stronger than before, but restoring a war body is not trivial, requiring far more Treasure Blood than before."

"Most importantly, if they discover the effect of your Treasure Blood, can you guarantee these two won't covet it and turn against you?"

The human heart is unfathomable. When Chu Nan was in the Chu family, hadn't he experienced it once already?
