"Miss Zhi, thanks to you we were able to get through this without incident."

"I really didn't expect that we could actually pass through the Demon Beast Plain this way."

"The Young Sect Leader has extraordinary abilities to have found Miss Zhi to cooperate with. Having you as our Spirit Corpse Sect's Young Sect Leader is truly a blessing for us."

In the Demon Beast Plain, Chu Nan and Zhi Qingge led the members of the Spirit Corpse Sect, braving obstacles deep within.

Though the route was a bit roundabout, it was safe, and they hardly encountered any powerful demon beasts along the way. Halfway through the journey, no demon beast had proactively attacked them.

Chu Nan was secretly relieved, having seen many demon beast packs pass by. Some emitted such terrifying auras that just a distant glance was enough to feel them.

If he hadn't brought Zhi Qingge, just this Demon Beast Plain could have been his downfall.

"Miss Zhi, rest assured, I will help you achieve your wish to dispel the backlash of Demon Blood," Chu Nan said to Zhi Qingge.

Zhi Qingge nodded silently. With promises from Chu Nan representing the Spirit Corpse Sect, her chances of fulfilling her wish were also greater.

"Look, there's someone!" Suddenly, an elder of the Spirit Corpse Sect exclaimed.

Chu Nan focused his gaze, showing surprise in his eyes.

Not far ahead, two figures were supporting each other, struggling to move forward.

They were covered in blood, their auras fluctuating, and they were so alert that the slightest disturbance would make them freeze in fear.

Zhi Qingge softly exclaimed, "It's Huo Xian and Zhou Lei. Weren't they with the family elders? Why are they in such a sorry state?"

Chu Nan chuckled lightly, "It seems even the cooperation of the two clans is failing, huh."

Chu Lingshan pondered and said, "Zhou Family Martial Artist... Damn it!"

Chu Lingshan despised everyone from the Zhou Family because his wife died because of them.

Chu Nan's gaze locked onto Huo Xian, realizing that reconciling with the Huo family was impossible.

Moreover, the two held hostility and covetousness towards Huo Nianfang. Just for this reason alone, Chu Nan could not let them go.

"Huo Xian, last time you escaped from me, let's see how you escape this time!" Chu Nan said with murderous intent as he led the Spirit Corpse Sect members towards Huo Xian and Zhou Lei.

The battered Huo Xian and Zhou Lei saw Chu Nan and showed surprise in their eyes.

Huo Xian incredulously said, "Wang Fei, it's actually you!"

Seeing the Spirit Corpse Sect members with Chu Nan, his eyes showed surprise and confusion, puzzled over why Chu Nan would be with them.

Chu Nan walked up to Huo Xian and said, "Huo Xian, Zhou Lei, I didn't expect you'd be so down and out."

Upon hearing this, Huo Xian and Zhou Lei were instantly furious, but their eyes lit up upon seeing the Spirit Corpse Sect members.

Zhou Lei joyfully said, "Wang Fei, I didn't expect you to seek the Spirit Corpse Sect's protection, you must've paid a hefty price."

After speaking, Zhou Lei looked at Chu Lingshan and said, "Sect Leader Chu, I order you in the name of the Zhou Family's direct line of the Imperial Capital's Strong Race to protect us all the way."

Then Zhou Lei looked at Chu Nan and coldly said, "And... expel Wang Fei!"

Zhou Lei's face showed a hideous expression, believing that the power of the Strong Race far surpassed the Sect, and he was confident Chu Lingshan wouldn't refuse this request.

In his eyes, Chu Nan was just an ant, daring to mock him just now, unforgivable.

He even thought Chu Lingshan might actively try to curry favor.

Huo Xian quickly echoed, "That's right, you must protect us. There will be great rewards afterward."

Before Chu Nan could speak, Chu Lingshan glared at Zhou Lei and said, "Zhou Lei, didn't your patriarch Zhou Rulie ever tell you about me?"

"About you?" Zhou Lei was confused, showing a surprised look.

"Your patriarch caused my wife's death back in the day!" Chu Lingshan had a deep hatred for the Zhou Family. Zhou Lei, being a Zhou Family direct line, had the same bloodline as Zhou Rulie.

The Zhou Lei in front of him seemed just like Zhou Rulie once did.

"What!" Zhou Lei was horrified, instantly shocked to the core.

He never imagined that his family's patriarch had caused Chu Lingshan's wife's death, walking right into the tiger's den.

Zhou Lei took several steps back, then turned to leave.

Chu Lingshan sneered, "Thinking of leaving? What wishful thinking!"

"To deal with such scum, there's no need for the Sect Leader to take action. I'll handle it for you," Chu Nan smiled and then, in a flash, chased after him.

Chu Lingshan nodded in approval, not stopping him but watching from afar.

Despite the great gap in cultivation between Chu Nan and Zhou Lei, he wasn't worried; Chu Nan's willingness to take the initiative meant he was confident.

Huo Xian watched in confusion. He couldn't understand how Chu Nan at the fifth level of the Divine Illumination Realm dared to chase after Zhou Lei at the seventh level of the same realm.

Before he could turn to watch the fight, a thunderbolt from the sky exploded, followed by a scream.

Shortly after, Chu Nan returned with a blood-stained head, throwing it at Chu Lingshan's feet.

Huo Xian looked closely and was shocked beyond belief.

It was Zhou Lei's head!

"Mission accomplished!" Chu Nan stood beside Chu Lingshan, brimming with valor.

He felt a bit regretful. Though Zhou Lei's level was high, he didn't possess a Soul Flame, so there were almost no gains from killing him.

However, Huo Xian was even more shocked. How could Chu Nan be so powerful? Zhou Lei was at the seventh level of the Divine Illumination Realm, and despite being severely injured, he shouldn't have been so easy to deal with.

But soon, Huo Xian calmed down and said to Chu Lingshan, "Zhou Lei deserved to die, Sect Leader Chu. You did well!"

"However, the Zhou Family's sins have nothing to do with the Huo family. I, the junior Huo Xian, hope for the Spirit Corpse Sect's protection, and I promise great rewards upon meeting my family elders."

Huo Xian was terrified at this moment, yet had no choice but to say so.

He and Zhou Lei had been attacked by a demon group and separated from others. Severely injured and precarious, if no one protected him, death was inevitable. He could only seek help from Chu Lingshan.

Chu Lingshan said nothing but looked at Chu Nan with a smile, "What do you think?"

Chu Nan chuckled softly, walking up to Huo Xian, "Huo Xian, do you know who I am?"

Huo Xian looked puzzled, then said, "Aren't you Wang Fei?"

"It seems you really don't recognize me, but if that's the case, you might recognize this." Chu Nan's eyes gleamed fiercely, and a benevolent light flickered at his brow.

The Yin Sha Tribulation Light transformed into a long streak, shooting out from the Yin Evil Celestial Eye.

Huo Xian's pupils contracted, and before he could react, the Yin Sha Tribulation Light pierced through his abdomen, leaving a bloody wound.

Bang!

Huo Xian's body was blasted by this power, his face filled with shock and fear, "This Celestial Eye Power... you, you are Chu Nan!"

Back in the day, Chu Nan had used the Yin Sha Tribulation Light against him, leaving him fleeing with no chance to retaliate, creating a massive psychological shadow for Huo Xian.

Now, seeing the Yin Sha Tribulation Light being used again, he immediately guessed that the person in front of him, Wang Fei, was indeed Chu Nan!

"Smart enough." Chu Nan walked towards Huo Xian step by step, the light in the Yin Evil Celestial Eye growing increasingly intense, exuding an overwhelming killing intent.

"Huo Xian, I have to thank you; if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met Huo Nianfang."

"Therefore, I'll give you a quick end."
