Chu Han’s expression was extrely ugly, his unwillingness evident; he found it hard to let go of the hatred for his son’s death!
Chen Kaiyang, seeing that Chu Han was still unrelenting, directly threatened, "Chu Nan is my disciple. Disputes between cultivators of the sa level can be let go. However, if anyone tries to bully the weak, I, Chen Kaiyang, will be the first to object."
"Do you believe, even if I killed you with my own hands in front of your father, that old guy wouldn’t dare say a thing?"
A strong killing intent locked onto Chu Han, sending chills down his spine as he said in panic, "Sect Leader Chen, don’t worry. Chu Hai died because his skills were inferior to others, how could I bla Chu Nan? It’s my fault, it’s all my fault."
When it concerns life and death, even the strongest hatred must be temporarily set aside; as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
The disciples on the stands sighed incessantly, as Chen Kaiyang actually accepted Chu Nan as his apprentice.
However, this was not without reason, as Chu Nan possessed an Emperor-level Martial Vein, and his talent was enough to be admired within the sect.
Chen Kaiyang accepting a disciple was only right.
After Chu Han agreed to Chen Kaiyang, he dejectedly left the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect with Chu Hai’s body.
The bet duel was intended to give Chu Hai a reputation, but it ended up like this.
Yet Chu Han never abandoned his plan for revenge. His gaze towards Chu Nan always carried intense hatred.
The enmity of killing his son is irreconcilable, and even if he can’t kill now, he would look for opportunities in the future.
As Chu Han left, the entire Life and Death Arena erupted in wave-like cheers.
Martial Artists worship the strong, and since Chu Nan had proven his strength, he naturally garnered the respect of everyone.
Lin An squeezed through the crowd, excitedly saying, "Chu Nan, I knew you were bound to win in the end!"
So also humbly inquired, "Senior Brother Chu Nan, I’ve seen your swordsmanship is outstanding. Should I have the chance soday, could you teach us a thing or two?"
"Senior Brother Chu Nan, this junior sister of yours wants to discuss swordsmanship with you right now; can you co to my room?"
"Hey, hey, hey, is that discussing swordsmanship? You just want his body!"
Chu Nan’s looks were not bad, and after long-term cultivation, his body looked very well-built, like a piece of art in stone sculpture. Plus, with today’s performances, many female Martial Artists soon harbored secret affections for him.
As everyone was noisily surrounding Chu Nan, Chen Kaiyang coldly snorted.
In an instant, everyone quieted down, and Chen Kaiyang said to Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, aren’t you going to acknowledge your master?"
Upon these words, everyone looked at Chu Nan with envious eyes.
Chu Nan knew that the opportunity to beco Chen Kaiyang’s apprentice ca only once, so he imdiately knelt down and bowed, saying, "Disciple Chu Nan, greets Master!"
Seeing Chu Nan acknowledging him as his master, Chen Kaiyang laughed heartily, casually waved his hand, and handed Chu Nan a storage ring, "Chu Nan, since you are my disciple, you should naturally be promoted to a True Disciple. Inside are the attire for True Disciples, along with the rewards for the promotion."
"I hope you don’t beco complacent; a Martial Artist’s path is still long, and you mustn’t slack off because of a small achievent, understand?"
Chu Nan bowed and said, "Disciple rembers."
Chen Kaiyang was very pleased; the greatest fear for a prodigy is arrogance and conceit, but Chu Nan evidently wouldn’t be like this, so he said, "Tonight at midnight, co to the Mountain Cloud Palace on Sword Peak to see ."
"Disciple obeys!" Chu Nan bowed in response.
Chen Kaiyang then looked at the other disciples and said, "Chu Nan has been through a bitter battle and needs rest; all disciples should not disturb him, go back and cultivate!"
The sect leader ordered, and the disciples didn’t dare disobey, leaving one by one.
Lin An also reluctantly bid farewell to Chu Nan.
Chen Kaiyang then soared into the air, leaving the Life and Death Arena.
Chu Nan checked the storage ring given by Chen Kaiyang and found a purple cloud-pattern Daoist robe inside. This robe could only be worn by True Disciples and was a defensive lower-grade Spirit Martial, incredibly valuable.
Besides that, there was also a golden token representing the identity of a True Disciple.
Holding it in his hand to establish ownership, Chu Nan was surprised to find that the True Disciple token also contained storage capabilities, the space was ten tis larger, far exceeding the previous storage ring space!
What delighted Chu Nan the most was that within the token, there were also five thousand contribution points, as rewards for being promoted to a True Disciple.
"I now have six thousand contribution points, more than enough to buy two orders for the Ancient Wilderness Forest."
Back when he agreed to the duel with Chu Hai, Gu Nianxue had given him an order for the Ancient Wilderness Forest, worth two thousand contribution points, extrely precious.
Entering the Ancient Wilderness Forest brought Chu Nan great benefits, not only enhancing his cultivation but also earning him a trace of Ancestral Bloodline!
Had he not obtained the Ancestral Bloodline, defeating Chu Hai today would not have been so easy.
Chu Nan always held gratitude towards Gu Nianxue’s kindness, though he wondered why Gu Nianxue hadn’t co to watch the battle today.
He didn’t mind, perhaps she had urgent matters.
He imdiately went to exchange for two orders for the Ancient Wilderness Forest, as a token of thanks.
"Gu Qiu said he lived in the Cyan Wood Hall, so Gu Nianxue must be there too." Chu Nan inquired along the way, finally arriving at Cyan Wood Hall.
A large villa located not far from Sword Peak.
Looking at this villa, Chu Nan secretly nodded, "I heard that becoming a True Disciple cos with an independent villa. I wonder what my villa will be like."
Arriving at the entrance of Cyan Wood Hall, Chu Nan explained his purpose to the gatekeeper disciples.
Initially, the gatekeepers were reluctant to let him in, but upon seeing Chu Nan reveal his True Disciple token, their expressions changed dramatically, and they respectfully allowed him entry.
This was a treatnt Chu Nan never dared to imagine before.
Upon entering Cyan Wood Hall, however, Chu Nan’s expression suddenly changed.
The whole Cyan Wood Hall was large, but extrely quiet. Although not a person was seen, the atmosphere was very oppressive, with a faint chill in the air.
"How strange, why does it feel a bit cold in the middle of sumr?"
"Elder Gu Qiu, are you here?" Chu Nan cautiously called out in front of the main hall of Cyan Wood Hall, but received no response.
"Senior Sister Gu, Chu Nan has co to thank you."
Receiving no response for a long ti, Chu Nan couldn’t help but frown slightly.
At this mont, he faintly heard a slight and familiar commotion coming from a room in the villa.
"What’s going on?" Detecting sothing unusual, Chu Nan followed the sound to investigate.
At this ti, the atmosphere was hot, but a room in Cyan Wood Hall was not only sealed with doors and windows but filled with various sizes of braziers and items for warmth.
Despite all this, a layer of frost still ford on the bed inside.
On the bed lay a beautiful young lady, who was none other than Gu Nianxue.
However, Gu Nianxue’s face was frosty, her entire body enveloped in cold air; even her breath carried ice crystals.
Her breath was extrely weak; if not for the slight rise and fall of her upper body, she would almost be indistinguishable from a corpse!
Gu Qiu sat by the bed, sweating profusely despite the heat, but his gaze towards Gu Nianxue was still full of urgency and worry.
At this mont, a young man slowly said, "Elder Gu, have you made your decision? If you let Gu Nianxue marry Lu Chizhen as a concubine, her life can be saved."
