That person grabbed Chu Nan’s hand with all his might. As he struggled, he said with great difficulty, “I… you… you’ve misunderstood. I… Dong… Lord Dong Fang… he… he’s fine…”

“You still want to lie to me?” Chu Nan’s eyes turned cold as he exerted strength in his hand and directly stopped the second half of his sentence. Then, he took out the brooch that the person had taken out as a token and sneered, “This brooch is indeed identical to the other appearances on Dong Fang’s chest today. Unfortunately, the brooch on Dong Fang’s chest was deliberately broken before he left, but this brooch is still intact. You want to use this brooch to lie to me? Tell me! How is he now?”

After asking, Chu Nan relaxed his hand slightly. That person immediately took a deep breath and looked at the brooch in his hand in surprise. Clearly, he did not expect to expose himself in such an inconspicuous place.

He blankly looked at Chu Nan for a moment before sneering.

“Heh, kid, since you’ve already discovered it, I won’t hide it from you anymore. That’s right, Dong Fang is in our hands now. If you don’t want him to die, listen to me obediently and leave with me. Otherwise, you know the consequences…”

Chu Nan shook his head and suddenly raised his hand to slap that person’s chest. He heard a cracking sound in the night. The bones in that person’s chest had been broken by Chu Nan’s palm. In the end, he spat out a large mouthful of blood and instantly fell to the ground. It was obvious that he was no longer alive.

Only then did Xiu react. She glanced at the heavily injured person on the ground and cried out in surprise, “Chu Nan, why did you kill him? If he’s dead, we won’t be able to inquire about Dong Fang!”

Chu Nan ignored Xiu and opened his personal terminal to send a communication request to Dong Fang.

After waiting for a while, the call was still not picked up.

Chu Nan’s expression sank. After a moment of silence, he squatted down and slapped the chest of the person who was still spitting out blood.

This palm strike did not plan to directly take his life, but a milky white light seeped out. The Flame of Life was activated. Coupled with the traces of green aura that seeped in, it quickly healed more than half of the serious injuries that almost killed that person and pulled him back from death.

Seeing that person recover and open his eyes, Chu Nan looked at him coldly.

“Tell me the truth. Otherwise, I don’t mind letting you experience death again.”

That person’s face was extremely pale and his gaze towards Chu Nan was filled with fear.

It would be fine if Chu Nan really slapped him to death, but now, he was actually able to save him from such a dangerous situation. This was simply much more terrifying than slapping him to death.

When he recalled that Chu Nan actually had such an unbelievable method and that his life was completely under his control, the resistance in that person’s heart immediately decreased.

“I… I say… Dong Fang actually…”

As soon as that person spoke, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and raised his left hand to draw half a circle in the air.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

A few cold lights suddenly flashed, but they were all stopped by Chu Nan. Then, they emitted muffled sounds like sharp blades stabbing a tree trunk and landed on the ground.

Then, seven to eight figures darted out in the night and pounced at Chu Nan and Xiu from all directions.

“Xiu, stay by his side. Don’t let him die.”

Chu Nan instructed and tapped his feet. His body immediately darted out and invaded the nearest figure before slapping out.

That person clearly did not expect Chu Nan to move so quickly. After being shocked, his figure could not help but slow down. He raised his hand and threw a punch at Chu Nan.

However, Chu Nan’s palm instantly spread out and completely enveloped him like fallen leaves, causing him to be unable to dodge.

Bang!

Chu Nan’s palm gently avoided all the other party’s defense and landed on his lower abdomen.

That person’s stomach completely sank, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body was sent flying at a speed several times faster than before, sending countless flowers and plants in the hotel garden behind him flying. Immediately, a series of bangs sounded, and it was especially ear-piercing in the night sky.

As soon as the voice sounded, Chu Nan had already arrived beside another figure. Without giving the other party any chance to resist, he threw a punch and broke the arms of that person in front of his chest. The remaining force landed on his chest and smashed a huge pit.

That person was heavily smashed to the ground by Chu Nan’s punch, causing a pit to appear in the thick soil and he fell to the ground.

Only then did the others react and surround Chu Nan.

Although these people’s martial techniques were not weak and their cooperation was tacit, making it obvious that they were well-trained, they were only medium-level Internal Breath Martial Artists in the end and the difference in strength was huge.

Chu Nan’s figure flashed a few times and he defeated these people.

If not for the fact that he had deliberately shown mercy in order to inquire about Dong Fang, none of these guys would have survived.

After dealing with them, Chu Nan returned to the person who led the way and picked him up.

“Alright, no one’s disturbing us now. Can you tell me Dong Fang’s current situation?”

That person was already completely stunned by Chu Nan’s performance.

When preparing for so many ambushes, he still felt that he had been too careful.

Chu Nan and the girl from the Rand Clan were not old. Even if they cultivated martial techniques, their strength would definitely be limited. They only needed three to five Internal Breath experts to easily take them down.

However, when his eight companions attacked at the same time, Chu Nan only attacked alone and easily killed them.

This kid… was too terrifying!

When he recalled that his companions had acted as if they wanted to silence him as soon as they attacked, he gritted his teeth and could not care less. He replied, “Actually… actually, I don’t know Dong Fang’s current situation.”

“Hmm?” Chu Nan exerted strength in his hand, “Then why did you send so many people?”

“I… I only listened to the higher-ups’ instructions to bring you out and cooperate with them to capture you somewhere…”

Chu Nan focused his gaze on him and could tell from the fear and a trace of anger in his eyes that he should not be lying. He pondered for a moment and turned to Xiu, “Return to the banquet hall first and take care of yourself. I should be back in a while.”

Xiu was shocked. “What do you want to do? I want to go too.”

“I’m going to investigate the situation, so don’t follow. To be honest, with your strength, you’ll be a burden if you follow,” Chu Nan said bluntly, “As long as you protect yourself like before, we’ll talk about other things when I return.”

Xiu lowered her head and gritted her teeth. After a moment, she nodded lightly.

“Alright…”

“Go.”

Chu Nan watched as Xiu walked towards the banquet hall. It was not until he saw her enter the hall that he picked up the person in his hand again. At the same time, he picked up the other guy who had been knocked to the ground and tapped his feet, bringing the two of them into the air.

“Alright, bring me to the place you want to bring us over now. Don’t think of playing tricks, or you know the consequences.”

The two of them lowered their heads to look at the distance below and were even more frightened.

This kid was actually a Void Break Martial Artist!
