Feng Jiming was not surprised that Chu Nan was leaving and said, "Considering the time, you should be leaving soon. We will also leave this place after you depart."
"Senior, will we have the chance to meet again?" Chu Nan asked.
Chu Nan held deep respect for Feng Jiming, this elder who kept his promises.
Feng Jiming laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry, I will stay with the Feng family in the Celestial Crossing Realm. If fate allows, we will meet again."
"Now that my heart's desire is fulfilled, I feel extremely gratified!"
Chu Nan nodded silently, and just then, Feng Chen, Feng Ling, and Feng Wu all arrived one by one.
Chu Nan faced them, bidding farewell to each in a light-hearted manner.
Feng Ling, however, said with great excitement, "Finally, we can leave this place. I want to see what the outside world is truly like!"
Hearing Feng Ling's words, Chu Nan laughed silently. Ever since coming to Feng Family Manor, she had been pestering him to know about the outside world.
But due to various events, there hadn't been a chance. Now she was going out personally.
It's unclear whether it's a blessing or a curse, as the world outside is far more dangerous than this paradise.
Feng Wu looked at Chu Nan and seriously said, "Chu Nan, my current strength is indeed not as good as yours, but just you watch."
"Next time we meet, I will definitely surpass you and become stronger than you."
Chu Nan replied, "I won't be idling either, so let's just wait and see."
After bidding farewell to them one by one, Chu Nan slowly left Feng Family Manor under their gaze.
In Feng Jiming's eyes, Chu Nan's figure seemed to overlap with someone from his memory, and he murmured to himself, "Lord Chu Fang, Chu Nan's talent is not inferior to yours!"
...
Leaving Feng Family Manor, Chu Nan flew swiftly towards the mountains beyond, singing all the way.
He did not conceal his trail but remained alert.
Leaving Feng Family Manor meant losing protection, so Chu Nan would have to rely completely on himself from now on.
The Zhang family would never let the deaths of Zhang Mingxuan and others go unpunished. After being missing for so many days, the Zhang family might have already sent powerful martial artists to search for him.
It's highly likely that Zhang family martial artists could appear here at any moment, making a bloody confrontation inevitable.
However, for Chu Nan at this moment, as long as they weren't Divine Illumination Realm martial artists, he had no fear of any Yang Wheel Realm opponents and was even somewhat eager to test himself.
He wanted to see just how strong he had become!
Whoosh!
As Chu Nan expected, just after he left the mountain range, three figures quickly approached from outside.
An old man with white hair, accompanied by two middle-aged men, stared menacingly at Chu Nan.
Using his spiritual sense, Chu Nan discovered that the old man's cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Yang Wheel, while the two middle-aged men were at the seventh and eighth levels.
Judging from their attire, Chu Nan determined that they must be from the Zhang family.
He couldn't help but gain a new understanding of the Zhang family's strength; they could send a ninth-level Yang Wheel martial artist so quickly after the death of Zhang Mingxuan.
This strength far surpassed the Overlord Body Sect in Songyang County.
"Hey, who are you? What are you doing here?" The old man said, glaring at Chu Nan with a sinister look.
With Zhang Mingxuan and others pursuing Chu Nan and going missing, the Zhang family patriarch became anxious and sent him to investigate, only to find all the bodies but not the target, Chu Nan.
Though they didn't know what had happened, they had to uncover the truth to report back to the patriarch.
Finding Chu Nan was their highest priority.
The old man didn't recognize Chu Nan, but upon looking at the young man before him, he started having suspicions.
Seeing the old man's expression, Chu Nan said, "You guys are from the Zhang family, right? There's no need to say much; I am the Chu Nan you are looking for."
As he finished speaking, a slight smile appeared on Chu Nan's lips. To convince them of his identity, he released his distinctive nine Martial Wheels.
Seeing the nine Martial Wheels appear, the old man was momentarily stunned, inexplicably suspicious.
He thought Chu Nan would hide or flee, yet did not expect him to appear openly and even admit it so readily.
When something seems strange, there's usually a catch. The old man warily looked around, sensing a conspiracy.
He sent the two middle-aged martial artists to scout the surroundings, but they found nothing unusual.
Upon receiving this answer, the old man coldly snorted, his eyes showing a hint of indifference as he said: "Chu Nan, I don't know what kind of trick you're trying to pull, but it doesn't matter."
"In the face of absolute strength, whatever you do is futile."
Chu Nan had reached the sixth level of the Yang Wheel, as the old man could tell at a glance, despite Chu Nan's growth speed making him feel ashamed of his own.
But a genius is only a genius; as long as they don't grow up, they're still just an ant.
As for why Zhang Mingxuan, at the ninth level of the Yang Wheel, died, the old man assumed perhaps something unexpected had happened during the pursuit of Chu Nan, that Zhang Mingxuan's death wasn't caused by Chu Nan.
Responding to the old man's taunt, Chu Nan said, "What you said to me is exactly what I want to say to you. In the face of absolute strength, no matter how many people you have, you can't do anything to me."
"Starting today, I'm going to let you know that opposing me, Chu Nan, is the biggest mistake your Zhang family could make."
"If you still refuse to see reason, the final outcome will only be death!"
Upon hearing this, the old man widened his eyes in anger, exclaiming, "I've heard that Chu Nan is extremely arrogant; seeing it today, it's indeed so."
"But arrogance has a price, and today your arrogance ends here!"
A young upstart dared to threaten the Zhang family; the ninth-level Yang Wheel old man naturally couldn't tolerate it.
He looked at the two Yang Wheel martial artists beside him and said, "Both of you, go and kill him!"
The seventh-level Yang Wheel locked onto Chu Nan and attacked first, hoping to gain merit by killing Chu Nan, considering his poor status within the Zhang family.
He instantly wielded a Pear Blossom Mountain Axe in his hand, its sharp wind causing layers of sonic booms, unleashing terrifying, mountain-like force.
"Chu Nan, die for me!"
The seventh-level Yang Wheel martial artist showed a ruthless expression, believing that with this strike, he could split Chu Nan, a sixth-level Yang Wheel, in two!
However, to his surprise, facing such terrifying power, Chu Nan merely smiled coldly and then said: "Where did this trash come from, daring to strike at me?"
Clang!
The Blood Pattern Sword sliced out, landing on the axe blade.
An overwhelming force surged, and Chu Nan directly suppressed the seventh-level Yang Wheel martial artist head-on.
Bam!
Flinging the axe blade aside, Chu Nan's sword blade drove straight in, piercing towards the heart of the seventh-level Yang Wheel martial artist.
"What!" The seventh-level Yang Wheel martial artist's face filled with horror, fear gripping his heart, unable to comprehend how he couldn't last even a single round against Chu Nan.
"Stop!" The old man shouted sternly upon seeing that his clan's martial artists were about to be killed.
Thud!
Yet Chu Nan paid no heed, plunging his sword through the opponent's heart, churning his internal organs into a bloody mess with Sword Qi.
The seventh-level Yang Wheel martial artist let out a painful scream before his eyes dimmed and his lifeless body fell heavily to the ground.
With a light flick of the Blood Pattern Sword, leaving a bloodstain on the ground, Chu Nan coldly stared at the old man and the remaining eighth-level Yang Wheel martial artist and said, "If this is all your strength, you'd better kill yourselves obediently."
