Chu Nan had already disguised himself, and Zheng Yao did not recognize him.
Huo Feng immediately followed up with another question, "You killed my people, what do you want, spirit stones or women?"
"Consider it making a friend; as long as you don't harm me, you can take whatever you want."
He saw Chu Nan's strength, and with caution, he dared not act rashly. He planned to stall for time until other martial artists in the residence sensed something was wrong and joined forces to kill Chu Nan.
Huo Feng thought that anyone daring to attack a strong race martial artist could only be a desperado.
Yet, Chu Nan merely let out a cold laugh and said, "What if all I want is your life?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Feng took another step back. Although he didn't know who this person was, he understood that tonight wouldn't end peacefully.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
With his cultivation surging, Huo Feng exerted all his strength in his Divine Illumination Realm third layer, attacking Chu Nan.
In response, Chu Nan thrust out his large hand, similarly unleashing his cultivation at the Divine Illumination Realm third layer. With the support of martial intent like a storm and thunderbolt, his movements were as fast as lightning.
Though both were in the Divine Illumination Realm third layer, Huo Feng simply couldn't keep up with Chu Nan's actions.
Bang!
Chu Nan punched Huo Feng's dantian, making a sound akin to a balloon bursting.
"Ah, you bastard…" Huo Feng's body arched like a shrimp and he fell to the ground in agony.
That single strike had actually shattered his dantian, causing his internal cultivation to flow away like a breeze, turning him into nothing but a cripple in a few breaths.
Zhang Baimei's legs trembled at the scene; she couldn't imagine who would dare to cripple a member of the Huo family!
Chu Nan grabbed Huo Feng by the hair with one hand, and Huo Feng screamed in pain, "Who on earth are you? The Huo family will never let you go."
"Not let me go? Haven't you been doing just that already…" Chu Nan's eyes were icy cold, his face revealing cruelty.
Zhang Baimei, hearing this and recalling how the young man in white first rescued Zheng Yao upon entering, immediately guessed, "Chu Nan, you're Chu Nan!"
Her heart trembled; she never thought Chu Nan had become so powerful. She, now only in the Yang Wheel, had no chance of escape under Chu Nan's hand.
Zheng Yao, however, was filled with joy. She had been worried that something might happen to Chu Nan, never expecting he'd come back safe and sound.
"Chu Nan, so you are Chu Nan." Huo Feng sneered, totally unprepared for the hunted Chu Nan to appear voluntarily, and more formidable than expected.
With just one attack, he had already lost his cultivation.
Without further ado, Chu Nan picked up the elixir that had fallen to the ground earlier and shoved it into Huo Feng's mouth, "Weren't you planning to give this to Zheng Yao? I'll let you taste it first."
The elixir melted instantly, and within a breath, it took effect.
Huo Feng felt an intense itch all over, as if thousands of ants were crawling and biting every inch of his flesh.
Cold sweat poured out continuously, turning his entire body a crimson color, his eyes filled with blood, and saliva dripping endlessly.
Never in his life had he endured such torment and pain. Immediately, he cried out for mercy, "Chu Nan, what… what do you want!"
Chu Nan snorted coldly, "Lin Yian, they're over there, take me!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Feng nodded instantly and said, "In the dungeon here, I'll take you, I'll take you!"
Seeing Huo Feng agree, Chu Nan first subdued him to prevent any sound, then had Zhang Baimei and Zheng Yao follow him to the dungeon.
Opening the door, Huo Feng first stepped inside, "They're in here, follow me."
As they reached deep inside the dungeon, Huo Feng pointed to a dim cell, "Chu Nan, Lin Yian is there."
Chu Nan felt a pang of worry and quickly stepped forward, but upon seeing the scene inside, his mind roared.
Inside the cell, a woman was lying naked on the straw.
She was covered in blood, her breath as weak as a thread, with even her hair torn out, barely looking human.
Seeing this, Chu Nan trembled with fury, shouting angrily, "Huo Feng!"
But the next moment, Chu Nan's expression changed, and upon probing with his spiritual sense, realized that this woman's cultivation was only in the Spirit Pill Realm, and her aura wasn't right; she wasn't Lin Yian.
Sensing something amiss, Chu Nan turned his head, but at the same time, a shadow descended upon him from above.
With a boom, a massive iron cage fell, enclosing Chu Nan and isolating him from everyone else.
A drenched-in-sweat Huo Feng started laughing, "Chu Nan, you've fallen for it, Lin Yian and the others were taken away long ago."
"She was able to recover despite her physique being seized. The family elders are planning to use her to cultivate more Red Phoenix Battle Bodies, so you can forget about ever seeing her again in this life."
Chu Nan's face turned ashen and icy as if it were frozen.
After saying that, Huo Feng swallowed the antidote for the poison pill and cruelly smiled, "This iron cage is made of Flame Soldier Profound Iron, materials for crafting king-grade Spirit Martial."
"Unless you have power at the Divine Illumination Realm ninth layer, don't even think about getting out."
"I'm going to feed this poison pill to Zheng Yao, and let you watch as she twists and pleads under me, ravaged and conquered!"
At this, Zhang Baimei also laughed loudly, "Chu Nan, it's all your fault that Zheng Yao faces such a tragedy."
"I'll not only let Zheng Yao be humiliated but also take Young Master Huo to the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect, turning the entire Cyan Mountain County into scorched earth."
Huo Feng and Zhang Baimei's laughter rang out one after another, as despair appeared in Zheng Yao's eyes.
Yet Chu Nan remained extremely detached, "Are you done talking?"
"If you cooperate obediently, I might spare your life. I've given you the chance, but you don't cherish it."
Huo Feng merely laughed, "Chu Nan, you can't even protect yourself now, you think you can escape?"
"Do you consider yourself a powerhouse at the Divine Illumination Realm ninth layer? Want me to kneel and beg you for mercy~"
Zhang Baimei laughed as well, "Facing death yet still so stubborn, Chu Nan, you truly disappoint me."
"Chu Nan, you should watch how I play with this wench; I believe her screams will sound delightful." Huo Feng's face showed excitement.
With Zhang Baimei's help, Huo Feng planned to force-feed Zheng Yao the poison pill once again.
But just then, a loud boom echoed.
Huo Feng and Zhang Baimei looked over and suddenly their eyes widened, their bodies frozen.
Inside what was once only Chu Nan's iron cage, there suddenly appeared a giant sword-wielding puppet.
The puppet was full of metallic luster, emanating a surging, formidable aura.
Its overwhelming pressure filled the entire dungeon, freezing Huo Feng and Zhang Baimei's laughter on their faces.
Buzz!
The sword hummed, like a thunderbolt!
Following Chu Nan's command, the sword puppet wielded the giant sword, slashing left and right.
The previously unshakeable iron cage was chopped into pieces amid the resonating sounds, billowing with dust.
Chu Nan walked towards Huo Feng and Zhang Baimei with a deliberate pace, his footsteps like a death knell.
Finally, Chu Nan asked in an utterly calm voice, "Have you decided how you want to die?"
