Chapter 1723 - 1723 Do You Have a Clear Conscience?
1723 Do You Have a Clear Conscience?
Feng Mingxi, who was cultivating with his eyes closed on the shore of the lake, suddenly raised his eyebrows. He suddenly opened his eyes and turned to look in Chu Nan’s direction.
“This guy is indeed very sensitive to life force fluctuations.”
Seeing Feng Mingxi’s reaction, Chu Nan sighed in his mind and appeared from his hiding place.
Feng Mingxi’s gaze swept past and his eyes instantly focused. The stable aura that was still cultivating suddenly became chaotic. Although he quickly restrained it, it clearly displayed his psychological fluctuations when he saw Chu Nan.
“It’s actually you!” Feng Mingxi shouted sternly, “How did you…”
At this point, he revealed a thoughtful expression. He frowned and thought for a moment before shaking his head and continuing, “I understand. You were teleported here through the galactic center space. Heh, I really don’t know if you were lucky or not. There were so many places that could have been teleported away, but you were sent here.”
Hearing his words, Chu Nan immediately determined that Feng Mingxi did not know that he and Angie Prairie had actually touched their way over from the internal space of the teleportation door. He thought that they had been unintentionally thrown here.
“Perhaps this is fate.” Chu Nan shrugged and pretended not to mind. Then, he asked, “Hey, Feng Mingxi, it’s not easy to encounter you. Can you answer a few of my questions properly? Tell me first, why did you come to rely on the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance? Why didn’t you return? Your father and Supremacy Feng Nanshan have always been very concerned about your whereabouts.”
“This has nothing to do with you,” Feng Mingxi said coldly.
“Alright, this indeed has nothing to do with me. However, can you tell me why you looked like you hated me the last time I saw you? When did we have a grudge?”
As soon as he asked the question, Feng Mingxi immediately frowned and anger surged between his eyebrows. He looked at Chu Nan with dense hatred.
He stared at Chu Nan and slowly replied in an extremely low voice, “You brought a group of fellows to destroy the most important moment of my cultivation method’s breakthrough. Why do you think I can’t hate you?”
“Your so-called cultivation method breakthrough is to absorb the life force of all the ferocious beasts on that planet?” Chu Nan frowned and asked, “Have you ever thought that there was actually a maintenance team stationed on that planet by the Declan Empire and the adventure trial team sent up by the federation and the surrounding countries? When you absorbed the life force of the entire planet, you didn’t even let them off.”
Feng Mingxi was silent for a moment before still replying coldly, “What does this have to do with you?”
Chu Nan frowned and looked at Feng Mingxi for a while. He sighed and shook his head lightly.
“To be honest, although I felt that you were a little too arrogant in the academy in the past, you were essentially a good person. It’s just that you’re not so easy to come into contact with. I didn’t expect you to become like this now. It’s one thing for the ferocious beasts on that planet, but do you really not take the traces of 364 lives on that planet seriously?”
Feng Mingxi raised his head slightly with a proud expression.
“What? You’re the messenger of justice who came to avenge them? Ha! Stop joking. Do you think fewer people have died under you all these years?”
Hearing the intense mockery in Feng Mingxi’s tone, Chu Nan’s expression did not change and he smiled.
“I admit that I’ve indeed personally killed many people over the years, but those people deserve it. I have a clear conscience. What about you? Can you really have a clear conscience for the people who died under you on that planet?”
Feng Mingxi’s expression changed slightly, and then anger arose. His eyes quickly became malicious, and he sneered, “Why should I feel guilty? It’s their honor that those people can become a part of me after I absorb their life force. You’re too naive to think that you can move me with these words.”
Chu Nan carefully looked at Feng Mingxi for a while and sighed.
“You’ve indeed changed. I don’t know why you’ve become like this, but you and I are now certain that you’re no longer the Feng Mingxi I knew in the past. I believe that if your father and Supremacy Feng Nanshan see you like this, they’ll definitely be pained and disappointed.”
“I don’t have to care what they think of me.” Feng Mingxi continued to raise his head and sneered, “I’ve never expected to obtain their approval. I won’t follow the path they arranged. Now, I’ve indeed walked an even more outstanding path that belongs to me. What they think has nothing to do with me.”
Chu Nan could not help but frown.
It was unknown what Feng Mingxi had experienced at home when he was young, causing him to develop such a rebellious personality.
However, this was not important. The current Feng Mingxi was indeed as Chu Nan had said. He was no longer the classmate he had some friendship with when he was still in Star Cloud Academy a few years ago and had already become a guy who was almost inhumane.
The cultivation method he cultivated was actually to absorb life force as the main cultivation method. Although from Feng Mingxi’s current actions, he was mainly trying to absorb the life force of ferocious beasts to refine the cultivation method, the more than 300 lives that had died under him on that ferocious beast planet could not be ignored.
In order to increase his cultivation method, this guy actually ignored the lives of so many innocent ordinary people. Just this point alone made it impossible for Chu Nan to accept him as his companion.
Of course, Feng Mingxi definitely did not mean that…
“Alright, what happened in your family is indeed unrelated to me, but what you’re doing here is very likely related to me. Tell me, what are you doing here?” Chu Nan continued to ask.
“Do you think I’ll tell you?” Feng Mingxi sneered.
“No, I don’t think so.” Chu Nan shook his head, “I’m just confirming that what you’re doing is shameful. From the current result, the answer is clearly no.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Nan’s figure suddenly moved and he slapped Feng Mingxi.
Feng Mingxi clearly did not expect Chu Nan to attack without a word. A trace of surprise flashed across his face before he sneered and slapped out to face him.
Bang!
The palm enveloped by the blood cloud collided with Chu Nan’s palm emitting a dense milky white light, emitting an extremely low muffled sound. It was accompanied by a subtle high-frequency sound that sounded like steam shooting out.
After exchanging a palm strike, Chu Nan immediately retreated. He lowered his head to look at the trace of green aura seeping out of his palm and frowned slightly.
Feng Mingxi did not pursue. Instead, he looked at Chu Nan and sneered.
“Don’t think that only your strength has been improving all these years. I haven’t been idle. Don’t forget that before you entered Star Cloud Academy, I was the most eye-catching genius in the Earth Federation!”
Chu Nan shook his head and ignored Feng Mingxi’s mockery. He continued to approach and slapped out.
