Chu Nan's gaze was icy cold, sending a chill through everyone, causing them to instinctively step back half a pace.

Seeing this scene, an expression of mockery appeared on Chu Nan's face. They were merely a bunch of cowards bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

At this moment, Chu Han's voice came from deep within the Chu family estate: "Chu Nan, who gave you the audacity to return to the Chu family and act so wildly."

Although the words were extremely harsh, Chu Han was equally shocked in his heart.

Jia Yu's assassination attempt on Chu Nan had unexpectedly failed.

He had already received news that after Chu Nan emerged from the Haotian Tower, he directly became the top of the True Disciple rankings, supposedly possessing the power of a Yang Wheel Martial Artist.

Chu Nan's return to the Chu family today was certainly for revenge.

However, Chu Han was not worried. After all, Chu Nan was only at the ninth level of the Spirit Pill stage. Even though he possessed the power of a Yang Wheel Martial Artist, it probably wouldn't last long, whereas Chu Han himself was a true Yang Wheel.

If it came to a real fight, he was not afraid at all!

Moreover, Chu Han did not intend to confront Chu Nan head-on.

What troubled him the most was that Chu Nan's ruckus had attracted many from Qing Shan County, who gathered at the damaged gate, craning their necks to see inside the Chu residence.

Some Martial Arts Families, no weaker than the Chu family, even barged in to watch the excitement.

"Who gave me the audacity, you'll understand soon enough!"

As Chu Nan saw Chu Han finally appear, a flame flickered in his eyes, and he rushed toward Chu Han using the Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step.

"Impudent!"

But just then, a cold snort suddenly resonated from the depths of the Chu family estate, followed by a massive fist imprint crashing down like a meteor.

With a bang, Chu Nan was forced back by the fist imprint, sliding over ten meters.

"Fourth Level of Yang Wheel!"

With just one exchange, Chu Nan understood who had appeared.

The true foundation of the Chu family, at the fourth level of Yang Wheel, the Chu family patriarch, Chu Nan's grandfather, Chu Mountain!

With his current strength, he couldn't contend with a martial artist at the fourth level of Yang Wheel; a grave expression immediately appeared on Chu Nan's face.

Not long after, a figure clad in green emerged, somewhat resembling Chu Han in appearance—it was Chu Mountain, the patriarch of the Chu family.

Chu Mountain scrutinized Chu Nan up and down, slightly sighing, "You really resemble your father."

Chu Nan's expression turned somewhat gloomy; how dare these bastards even mention his father?

Immediately, Chu Mountain continued, "Chu Nan, if you kneel down and admit your mistakes now, your killing of Chu Hai and disruption in the Chu family can be forgiven, and you could even return to the Chu family and become the Young Master!"

Upon hearing this, the entire clan was astonished, even Chu Han widened his eyes, not expecting Chu Nan would make such a decision.

"The Young Master of the Chu family, that would be the future patriarch."

"From being expelled from the family as a waste to becoming the Young Master, Chu Nan is truly rising to the top in one step!"

In the eyes of many, Chu Mountain had offered an irresistible condition; just by apologizing, Chu Nan could become the Young Master of the family.

Anyone would know what choice to make.

Even the onlookers praised Chu Mountain, saying, "Worthy of being the patriarch, with such magnanimity, not only forgiving Chu Nan's actions but also offering him to be the Young Master of the Chu family."

"If Chu Nan doesn't agree, he'd truly be ungrateful."

All eyes turned to Chu Nan, knowing he had to make a choice.

Suddenly, Chu Nan began to laugh, then shook his head and said, "Apologize and all is forgiven? Patriarch, you are indeed magnanimous."

"You are my grandson, so of course, I care about you and forgive you," Chu Mountain said calmly, with a benevolent expression.

In his view, Chu Nan should make the right choice.

Only Chu Han's face was somewhat sullen; he absolutely did not want Chu Nan to return to the Chu family.

"Care about me, do you really care about me?" Chu Nan questioned, looking at Chu Mountain.

Chu Mountain understood that Chu Nan resented his past experiences within the Chu family, so he said, "I've been in seclusion for over ten years, completely unaware of what your second uncle did to you."

"Although they were excessive back then, since Chu Hai has already been killed by you, should it not be enough to settle your grievances?"

Gu Nianxue's expression was angrier, what did he mean by Chu Hai is dead, and Chu Nan's grievances should be settled?

Sixteen years of humiliation, could it really be erased with just one life?

Moreover, in truth, Chu Hai's death was his own doing; even in death, he deserved it!

"Wonderful, wonderful, it's impressive coming from the patriarch, such eloquence," Chu Nan applauded repeatedly but with an angry expression, "Patriarch, you say you were in seclusion, do you think I actually believe such lies meant for children?"

"Did you not know when Chu Han bullied me?"

"Did you not know when he took the relics left by my parents?"

"When you used those relics for your own cultivation, did you also not know?"

Chu Nan's face was full of sarcasm; he wanted to expose all the ugly deeds of the Chu family, to let everyone know what kind of scoundrels the high and mighty patriarch and patriarch really were!

Upon hearing Chu Nan's words, the onlookers showed signs of doubt.

"How could Chu Han, as the patriarch, lead the bullying of a child, Chu Nan accuses without thinking."

"Hmph, Chu Nan was orphaned and taken in by Chu Han, not only is he ungrateful, but he also falsely accuses Chu Han of stealing his parents' relics, truly an ingrate."

"I think Chu Nan is here to blackmail the Chu family for cultivation resources; what a disgrace, even as a True Disciple of the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect."

"But everyone knows about Chu Nan being bullied in the Chu family in Qing Shan County. What if what he says is actually true?" some questioned with furrowed brows.

Chu Nan's words clearly did not gain the majority's support, as he had little influence.

But Chu Nan didn't care, he questioned, "Chu Han, Chu Hai continuously drained my blood for a year for cultivation; did they alone use all that blood?"

"Return me to the family? Do you still want to continue draining my blood?"

"Patriarch... Chu Mountain, stop pretending to be benevolent, that rotten, bloody smell from your body almost makes me want to vomit."

"Feeding on your grandson's blood, all these years have gone to the dogs!"

Chu Han's expression changed drastically at these words, and Chu Mountain's aged lips quivered slightly.

The truth is always more damaging than slander.

"You little bastard, what nonsense are you spouting, shut up!" Chu Han roared angrily; how could such filthy matters be exposed to outsiders?

The crowd initially didn't take Chu Nan's words seriously, but seeing Chu Han's enraged, embarrassed demeanor, they instantly began to hesitate internally.

"Could this be true?"

"I don't want to believe it's true, but looking at Chu Han's attitude..."

"I remember Chu Nan inexplicably disappearing for a year; could it be they really locked him up?"

"With Chu Nan's cultivation, what's the point of using his blood? If it's true, it's not just bullying; it's downright abuse!"

Most were unaware of the effects of Chu Nan's blood; they merely considered the Chu family cruel and abusive to Chu Nan.

Chu Mountain's benevolent face turned dark and he coldly stared at Chu Nan, saying, "What would it take for you to let go?"

Chu Nan looked at Chu Han, pointing at him and said, "Originally I came to kill Chu Han, but I changed my mind; as long as Chu Han cripples his own cultivation, the matter can be dropped, and I will leave immediately!"
