Before the words finished echoing, there was a thunderous explosion, like a bolt from the blue.
Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue were astonished to feel an indescribable terrifying power suddenly erupt in front of them.
However, this overwhelmingly powerful force was not aid at them but swept directly toward Zhou Lan on the opposite side!
The pair of giant hands that had initially reached for them vanished instantly, and the two won's vision cleared once more.
They fixed their gaze and saw a young man standing ahead, dressed in a black long gown, elegant and graceful.
He stood with hands behind his back, his posture as straight as a pine, with a resolute and fearless expression.
Though he appeared youthful, he exuded an aura that made others instinctively want to rely on and trust him.
Looking at Zhou Lan, who monts ago had been intensely oppressive, he was now punched by Chu Nan, sent flying dozens of miles away, his body crashing like a kite with its string cut into a distant deep pit.
"Zhou Lan, you boasted earlier that anyone daring to challenge the Royal Family and Strong Race would pay a painful price."
Chu Nan's lips curled into a disdainful smile, and he continued, "I just sent you flying with one punch, what can you do to now?"
Though his words were light, they conveyed boundless confidence.
The martial artists from Strong Race and Royal Family, who had entered the Tianxuan Secret Realm for training, witnessed this scene and had only two words in mind.
Arrogant!
Ji Shenhai was so enraged he ground his teeth, his fists clenching audibly.
How many years had it been? Over the years, when had the Royal Family ever been subjected to such scorn and humiliation? Chu Nan's act warranted dismbernt without excess!
Yet, at this mont, not a single martial artist dared to underestimate Chu Nan.
Even Song Ba, observing from afar, was secretly astounded.
Because they all distinctly sensed that Chu Nan's aura was not inferior to that of the Nine Heavens in the least.
With such terrifying strength, if no peak Nine Heavens expert erges, they might at best defeat him.
As for killing or capturing him alive, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, on the bright side, if they could deploy the Celestial Spirit Martial controlled by the Royal Family.
Then, not to ntion just one Chu Nan, even if there were ten or eight more, they would be no match.
But, the cost of unleashing such a level of Spirit Martial is imnsely high, and even the Royal Family is reluctant to use it lightly.
Cough, cough!
Zhou Lan let out a violent coughing sound, although Chu Nan's sudden appearance was shocking, it was not unexpected.
He ca to the Tianxuan Secret Realm with the purpose of training Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue, so facing a crisis they couldn't resist, Chu Nan naturally would appear.
Zhou Lan had been gambling whether Chu Nan was not currently by the two won's side, but he lost the bet.
Song Ba was also secretly relieved; if he had personally dealt with the two won, he might have ended up with animosity towards this rising new star from the Imperial Capital.
Although he was the Grand Commander of the Forbidden Army at the Imperial Palace, deep down he preferred to safeguard himself.
"It's sufficient to go easy and punish Zhou Lan." Song Ba had no feud with Chu Nan, so naturally, he wouldn't want to risk everything.
Just as Song Ba was about to say sothing, Zhou Lan suddenly jumped out of the deep pit, saying, "Commander Song Ba, what are you waiting for!"
"The culprit who's killed the Eldest Prince and shad the Royal Family has already appeared."
"Chu Nan, that little thief, has co alone to this Tianxuan Secret Realm, which is a rare opportunity."
"The Sect Leader is absent; as long as you can display your power, you will surely capture Chu Nan!"
Zhou Lan realized he couldn't match Chu Nan, naturally, he wouldn't continue a futile struggle.
So he turned towards Song Ba, hoping to employ the na of the Royal Family to spur Song Ba into action against Chu Nan.
Upon hearing this, Song Ba frowned as he already had little regard for the Strong Race.
Though he was from the Imperial Capital, he hailed from a common Noble Family, experiencing suppression from the Strong Race since birth, his Cultivation reaching the Cloud Sea Realm but then stalled.
This suppression was intangible, as the Strong Race was not targeting him specifically but all forces outside Strong Race.
Song Ba's cultivation reached the Cloud Sea Realm, lacking resources to ascend to higher realms.
During this ti, Song Ba joined the Royal Family, and over nearly fifteen hundred years, with their help, he managed to break through to the Ninth Heaven.
So Song Ba bore little affection for Zhou Lan, especially as this guy with the Seventh Heaven dared to try and use him, a Ninth Heaven champion, as a tool - utterly detestable!
"This Zhou Lan is clearly trying to pit against this Chu Nan!"
Song Ba cursed inwardly, then reprimanded Zhou Lan, "Are you instructing on what to do with just your Seventh Heaven Cultivation?"
His tone carried a hint of murderous intent, causing Zhou Lan to be visibly shocked.
"Oh no, my eagerness to stir enmity between the Royal Family and Chu Nan backfired!"
Zhou Lan was deeply regretful, realizing he'd gone too far, exceeding appropriate bounds, eliciting Song Ba's strong disdain.
This had now beco troubleso, as the situation would likely turn very tricky moving forward.
Chu Nan observed everything, grasping so understanding.
It seed that the Strong Race and the Royal Family weren't entirely united and inseparable.
Without external threats, the Royal Family and Strong Race would beco competitors against each other.
However, as the Royal Family controls the mysterious and powerful Dragon Qi, they have always been able to suppress the ten major Strong Races, holding the upper hand.
Seeing Song Ba about to let the matter go unpunished and planning to leave with the Royal Family martial artists, not wanting to get involved in their conflicts, Ji Shenhai spoke up.
"Commander Song Ba, Zhou Lan might have misspoken, but he makes a valid point."
"Now is the best chance to kill Chu Nan, do not forget your identity."
"I want you to kill Chu Nan imdiately, and seize all his opportunities."
Though the Millennium Gold Zhi is precious, compared to the opportunities Chu Nan possesses, it's inconsequential.
The fact that Chu Nan has reached this point makes it obvious he harbors significant secrets to anyone with sense.
As a mber of the Royal Family, Ji Shenhai, who is eager to strengthen himself, naturally has an interest in Chu Nan's secrets.
Given that Chu Nan is right in front of him and Song Ba has arrived, Ji Shenhai's desire intensified.
He hoped Song Ba would take action to seize the opportunities hidden on Chu Nan.
Song Ba sighed with a bitter smile; he could ignore Zhou Lan's words, even berate them, but Ji Shenhai's words were different.
Ji Shenhai is not only from the Royal Family but also the brother of Emperor Qin Ji Shenfa, sharing a very deep bond – sothing outsiders cannot compare to.
Though his Cultivation is rely at the Third Heaven, Song Ba cannot defy his orders.
With a sigh~
Releasing the power of the Ninth Heaven, Song Ba displayed his incredible might as a supre powerhouse, arrived before Chu Nan and said, "Chu Nan, surrender and capture, and I may spare your life."
