Huo Linjiang is his valued grandson. If he is seriously injured here, who knows how long it will take to recover.
He disregarded Chu Nan's current status and unhesitatingly launched a powerful strike.
A strike from a triple Celestial Martial Artist is earth-shattering, even if it's not at full force, it's not something an ordinary martial artist can withstand.
Chu Nan swung a sword, and a brilliant blood-colored Sword Qi shot up from the ground, tearing the earth apart. If Huo Linjiang were to take this blow, he would definitely suffer serious injuries.
However, at this moment, Huo Qi's palm had already fallen.
The terrifying power of a triple Celestial Martial Artist instantaneously shattered Chu Nan's Sword Qi, and the spreading aftermath forced him to retreat dozens of feet.
Then Huo Qi slammed a punch onto the Dragon Slaughter Tower.
The entire tower body trembled continuously and was even sent flying dozens of feet.
"Chu Nan, it was just a spar, yet you harbored murderous intent. How can the Ancestor Sect tolerate a killer like you!" Huo Qi harshly scolded Chu Nan, completely forgetting that it was Huo Linjiang who first attacked Chu Nan with a deadly move.
Mo Yi roared at this moment: "Huo Qi, you Honored Guest Elder, how dare you attack the sect's true disciple, that's defying order!"
He stepped closer to Huo Qi, unable to tolerate what just happened.
Huo Qi's actions were an offense to the Ancestor Sect's primal line.
Other elders also turned their gazes towards Huo Qi, their eyes filled with hostile intent.
To them, Huo Qi's actions were irredeemable even if it resulted in death.
"This is bad, acted rashly!" Huo Qi was also shocked, he had lost his head out of worry and forgotten his status as an Honored Guest.
Honored Guest Elders of the Ancestor Sect seemed to be part of the sect, but actually were not.
Their presence here was to restrain and monitor, a compromise of the Ancestor Sect to the royal family and strong clans.
Usually, the Ancestor Sect maintained a surface-level harmony with the strong clans and royal family, but if fundamental interests were infringed, the Ancestor Sect would choose to eliminate them without hesitation.
Huo Qi grabbed Huo Linjiang, ready to flee immediately. As long as he returned to the Huo family, the Ancestor Sect could not do anything to him.
However, even so, Huo Qi was still unwilling, and looked at Chu Nan, secretly thinking: "If I can bring Chu Nan back, it would be a great achievement. Even if the entire Ancestor Sect comes to the Huo family, the family will protect me!"
While Huo Qi was conflicted about whether to take the risk of taking Chu Nan, Chu Nan chuckled softly and said: "Elder Mo Yi, don't get angry."
"Honored Guest Huo Qi, right? Huo Linjiang is finished, why don't we spar for a bit?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's minds were shocked.
"Chu Nan, did you just say you want to challenge Huo Qi?" Mo Yi said dumbfounded, "I must have misheard, I definitely misheard, right?"
Everyone had a serious expression, Mo Yi might have heard wrong by himself, but could everyone have heard it wrong?
Chu Nan calmly stated: "Elder, you didn't hear wrong, I do want to challenge Honored Guest Huo Qi. Life and death... irrelevant!"
In an instant, the hearts of everyone present were in turmoil.
A Cloud Sea Realm double layer challenging a triple Celestial Martial Artist, this is a disparity of an entire major realm.
It's like an ant challenging a dragon, an extravagance beyond imagination.
Zhi Tianping was also shocked and said: "Chu Nan, are you crazy? With your current strength, you cannot be Huo Qi's opponent!"
He couldn't understand, though Chu Nan's strength was indeed astonishing, it was impossible to challenge an enemy across an entire major realm.
Even a double layer Celestial Martial Artist could easily kill Chu Nan, let alone a triple layer.
But Chu Nan didn't care, and still resolutely said: "It doesn't matter, I want to try."
Try?
Want to try?
Chu Nan's words puzzled Huo Qi a bit, making him feel that there must be some trick. He wasn't happy but felt there was some conspiracy here.
Being able to reach the Cloud Sea Realm from Martial Arts Realm within a year can't be a fool.
Cloud Sea Realm double layer challenging triple Celestial, even an ordinary person would know the winner and loser.
But Chu Nan boastfully challenged.
"Could it be that Chu Nan has some kind of scheme?" Huo Qi couldn't figure it out, totally couldn't figure it out.
How could Chu Nan challenge across a major realm, even with ten Spirit Martial weapons, he wouldn't succeed in spanning an entire realm!
"Honored Guest Huo Qi, why don't you speak, or are you afraid?"
"Afraid of me, a Cloud Sea Realm?"
Chu Nan moved a step closer to Huo Qi, as if not concerned at all about the other making a move.
Huo Qi couldn't help but step back as Chu Nan approached, this scene deeply shocked everyone.
But Huo Linjiang didn't care about any of this, he cried out in anguish: "Grandpa, grandpa, we cannot let him go."
"Chu Nan is deceiving you, he's blustering. Quickly agree to him, agree to him, see what tricks he has up his sleeve!"
Huo Linjiang's words reminded Huo Qi, quickly sobering him up, mentally thinking: "Yes, it's always easy to be confused on the inside and clear on the outside, Chu Nan is bluffing, to make me fearful, to make me retreat on my own, to amplify his own momentum."
"Yes, it must be like this!"
Putting down Huo Linjiang, Huo Qi laughed and said: "Chu Nan, you are indeed extraordinary, almost scared by you just now."
"But you are still too young, I don't know how many times I've played the bluffer's trick; compared to me you are still too green."
"You want to challenge me, fine, I accept your challenge, life and death irrelevant!"
Huo Qi arrogantly raised his head, looked down at Chu Nan, he wanted to see Chu Nan's panicked expression when he agreed.
He believed Chu Nan hoped he wouldn't agree, but he agreed.
Chu Nan must be, because of this, utterly confused and extremely terrified!
"Good, I was worried you'd be scared of me and not dare to agree." Chu Nan's face showed not a hint of fear, even a trace of delight appeared.
This scene made Huo Qi even more puzzled, secretly thinking: "No panic, not a bit of anxiety, how is this possible, could it be he really has a means to deal with me?"
"Impossible, I understand, he must be pretending, so, I'll reveal your true form!"
Thinking so, Huo Qi showed a cruel smile, at this moment he not only wanted to defeat Chu Nan but also use this duel as a chance to disgrace the Ancestor Sect!
Boom boom boom!
The triple Cloud Sea expanded directly, the purple clouds flashing with dazzling thunderbolts, instantaneously changing the color of heaven and earth.
The terrifying aura of the triple Cloud Sea made it difficult for most martial artists to even breathe.
Huo Qi seemed like a deity commanding thunderbolt, surrounded by Thunder Dragons, spoke in a voice like a bell: "Chu Nan, this is but the tip of my power's iceberg, I hope you can last three breaths under my hand."
Mo Yi, seeing this scene, reminded Chu Nan: "Chu Nan, reconsider, a triple Celestial expert is extraordinary, if you repent now, I might still save you."
Chu Nan gazed at the triple Thunder Sea, chuckled: "Rest assured elder, this is exactly what I wanted, if Huo Qi was weak, I'd still feel somewhat unsatisfied!"
No one could see, while Chu Nan spoke, five drops of essence blood were melting within his Dantian…
