After receiving a definite answer from Kui Guang, Chu Nan's gaze at Huo Nianfang completely changed.

On closer inspection, the features between her brows indeed resembled his somewhat, but her appearance perhaps looked more like their mother's.

Gazing at Huo Nianfang, Chu Nan was not only looking at his sister but seemed to find a trace of the mother he had never met.

He secretly clenched his fist and looked at Huo Nianfang, who was confronting Ji Rugui, secretly swearing in his heart, "She is my only family, no one in this world can harm her!"

"I will use my life to protect her as she grows, so she doesn't have to face the pain I once did."

Just as Chu Nan was swearing in his heart, Ji Rugui had already ordered, "Qin Shun, capture Huo Nianfang and bring her back to the Imperial Capital!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" The hook-nosed eunuch walked towards Huo Nianfang with a sinister smile, saying, "Miss Huo, come with me."

Huo Nianfang looked at Qin Shun approaching step by step, retreating repeatedly.

Ji Rugui possessed a Divine Illumination Realm level seven cultivation, and Qin Shun, as Ji Rugui's personal eunuch, was already at level six.

Huo Nianfang did not fear Qin Shun, but facing Ji Rugui of the Divine Illumination Realm and the group of eunuchs behind him, she knew it was extremely difficult to handle.

But like Chu Nan, Huo Nianfang was determined unto death no matter what crisis she faced.

She was ready to fight to the death. Seeing Qin Shun closing in, Huo Nianfang was secretly gathering her strength, waiting for the right moment to unleash a thunderbolt strike.

"Miss Huo, excuse me!" Qin Shun's sharp voice sneered as he attacked, a burst of Spiritual Power surged out, emanating a peculiar and extremely yin aura.

Just as Huo Nianfang was preparing to fight to the death, suddenly a tall figure blocked her front.

Seeing that tall figure, Huo Nianfang exclaimed, "Daoist friend, you are..."

Ignoring Huo Nianfang's words, Chu Nan's gaze, electric-like, fixed on Ji Rugui as he said, "Touch her, and you'll die!"

Although Chu Nan was only at Divine Illumination Realm level four, the killings he experienced were nothing Ji Rugui, who lived in comfort, could compare to.

Seeing Chu Nan's cold gaze, Ji Rugui couldn't help but retreat a step in fear.

But he quickly reacted, an endless humiliation rising in his heart. How could a distinguished sixth prince like him be scared by a lowly ant!

Ji Rugui, who had been staring at Huo Nianfang, finally looked directly at Chu Nan, "You insolent brat, do you know who the prince is, daring to interfere with my affairs!"

"What so remarkable about being a mere prince?" Chu Nan showed disdain; as a Martial Artist who fought his way up from the bottom, he inwardly despised Ji Rugui, such a sheltered flower.

"Insolence, how dare you offend His Highness! For this alone, I could eradicate your entire clan!" Qin Shun was furious at Chu Nan's disrespect and flicked his fingers.

A silver-glowing Sunflower Divine Needle darted swiftly towards Chu Nan.

Qin Shun smiled coldly in his heart. This Sunflower Divine Needle was his famous technique; he had killed many Martial Artists of the same realm with this move.

Just as he thought Chu Nan would cruelly meet his end, he saw the opposite young man punch out at an even faster speed.

Bang!

The Sunflower Divine Needle was shot down by Chu Nan from mid-air, leaving Qin Shun wide-eyed in shock.

"Such speed!" Qin Shun was instantly enraged, baring a hideous look, "You insolent brat, how dare you offend me…"

Just as Qin Shuan was babbling and ready to move again, Chu Nan coldly said, "Noisy!"

A hum—

At the center of his brow, purple light blossomed like flames instantaneously.

The Yin Evil Celestial Eye, open!

"Celestial Eye!" Qin Shun's eyes widened, just as he was about to say something, a burst of purple light shot out from the Celestial Eye.

Pfftt!

Chu Nan lightly swept with the Yin Sha Tribulation Light, and Qin Shun's head slid off his neck; even as it fell to the ground, his face still bore a dazed expression.

But it was not over yet!

Huo Nianfang was Chu Nan's only sister, and today was the first day the siblings had reunited; anyone who dared offend must pay with their life!

The Celestial Eye turned to Ji Rugui, and the Yin Sha Tribulation Light blossomed once more.

"Not good!" A single strike killed Qin Shun of Divine Illumination Realm level six; Ji Rugui had never heard of a Celestial Eye with such immense attacking power.

He immediately crushed a Protective Talisman, turning into a light shield guarding him.

The Yin Sha Tribulation Light swept across the front of the light shield but could not break through, but the eunuchs around Ji Rugui were in trouble.

The light swept across them, limbs flew, and blood blossomed like a lotus, the wailing was deafening.

One by one, the broken corpses fell to the ground.

With just one glance, Chu Nan had slaughtered all of Ji Rugui's minions.

The light shield shattered, and Ji Rugui shouted angrily, "Bastard, do you know what you're doing?"

"You've made me angry, you've angered a prince of the Imperial Capital, and no one can save you!"

He couldn't fathom that Chu Nan dared to act, and that last strike was clearly intended to kill him; this was something Ji Rugui couldn't tolerate.

"Whoever dares harm her, dies!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Nan immediately summoned his Blood Pattern Sword and slashed it toward Ji Rugui!

Clang!

The sword qi exploded, catching Ji Rugui off guard, making him retreat consecutively, his expression turning even more sullen.

Huo Nianfang was completely shocked; she never imagined that Chu Nan would strike against the prince of the Imperial Capital for her.

"I'll kill you!" Ji Rugui, extremely furious, wielded a longsword and charged at Chu Nan.

The blade blazed with dazzling golden light, pressing down on Chu Nan with destructive force.

Chu Nan's expression remained cold, similarly slashing out with a sword, the force of the wind and thunder surged; it was the Wind Thunder Blade!

Clang clang!

The sound of metal clashing echoed in the air, and the two sword blades collided, forming a terrifying wave of Spiritual Energy.

Thump thump...

This strike from Ji Rugui wasn't hasty; it perfectly displayed the power of Divine Illumination Realm level seven.

Chu Nan and he were both pushed back by the shockwave, stabilizing their bodies after more than ten steps.

Ji Rugui looked at Chu Nan in astonishment, "For a mere Divine Illumination Realm level four to exert such terrifying power, plus that mysterious Celestial Eye."

"You must have immense secrets on you, and once I kill you, they'll all be mine!"

Ji Rugui's eyes filled with murderous intent, fueled both by anger and the recognition of Chu Nan's extraordinary nature, spurring an intense greed.

By appearance, Chu Nan seemed only a little older than Huo Nianfang, yet the difference in cultivation was vast.

"For a Divine Illumination Realm level four to easily contend with my power, if left to develop, he'll surely become a grave threat."

"Fortunately, meeting him today allows me to nip him in the bud before his wings fully grow."

With this thought, Ji Rugui smirked coldly, suddenly unleashing a brilliant light with a strike toward Chu Nan.

Roar—

A phantom golden dragon roared as it charged from Ji Rugui's palm, the boundless murderous aura driving the surrounding winds and clouds.

Worry flashed across Huo Nianfang's face as she hurried to warn, "Daoist friend, this is the Royal Family's Earth Tier Martial Skill, the Rising Dragon Technique."

"Cultivated with Earth Vein Dragon Qi, it has almost no equal at the same level!"
