The old man's name was Luo Kun.
He was a master under Han Feiyang.
His strength was not particularly strong.
But he had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
Luo Kun was sent by Han Feiyang to protect the Han family.
After all, with a peak Nascent Soul stage expert guarding them.
In the vast Jizhou, no one dared to trouble the Han family.
Luo Kun thought.
Chen Nan was just a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.
After all.
Most of the cultivators in hell were in the Golden Core stage.
Chen Nan could subdue them, so he must be above the Golden Core stage.
And based on his age.
At most, he was in the middle Nascent Soul stage.
But.
Chen Nan's "scram" just now had severely wounded his soul.
"This person's strength cannot be underestimated."
"If I'm not mistaken."
"His strength has likely reached the Out-of-Body stage."
------
On the other side.
After Chen Nan's "scram" drove away the long sword.
The scene fell silent.
No one expected his strength to be so great.
Especially Han Feipeng and Han Jian, father and son.
They knew Luo Kun's strength very well.
That was a peak Nascent Soul stage expert.
This was a power that could transcend the mortal world.
But.
Chen Nan's single word "scram" had repelled Luo Kun's flying sword.
This made them shudder.
Especially Han Jian.
He even momentarily forgot the pain of his ruined manhood.
Chen Nan asked quietly, "Mr. Han, can I take my woman away now?"
Han Feipeng subconsciously swallowed.
He used the toughest tone to say the most cowardly words: "If you want to take Miss Jian away, my Han family naturally cannot stop you."
"But you should consider the consequences of opposing my Han family."
A hint of disdain flickered across Chen Nan's face. "I'm really curious, what can your Han family do to me?"
As he spoke.
He looked at Jian Ning and said softly, "I'm a bit hungry. Go home and cook me something to eat."
Jian Ning hesitated for a moment, then nodded with a determined look, "Okay."
She didn't want to get engaged to Han Jian in the first place.
Let alone.
Han Jian had hit her father.
And called her used goods.
So.
At this moment.
She was willing to believe Chen Nan.
Even if the Han family had the backing of Mo Yuan, that peak Mahayana stage expert.
She was not afraid.
As long as she could be with the one she loved, what did it matter if she died?
Holding the hand of the woman he loved.
Chen Nan felt much more at ease.
He looked at Jiang Jiancheng, who was stunned, "We've known each other. Let's part on good terms today!"
"I hope you don't regret defecting to the Han family."
He was very angry that Jiang Jiancheng had defected to the Han family.
And officiated the engagement ceremony between Han Jian and Jian Ning.
Because he knew his relationship with Jian Ning.
However.
He was a sentimental person.
Although he had saved Jiang Jiancheng's life more than once.
Jiang Jiancheng had also helped him a lot when he was just released from prison.
Jiang Jiancheng became enraged, "Why should I regret defecting to the Han family?"
"Do you know what they gave me after I defected to them?"
"They gave me cultivation techniques."
"What did you give me?"
"I served you day and night, like a dog."
"Although you would save me when I, this dog, got beaten."
"But, have you ever thought about passing on cultivation techniques to me?"
Chen Nan laughed out of anger, "Teaching you cultivation techniques is for your own good?"
Jiang Jiancheng angrily retorted, "Everyone in the world wants to be a cultivator, to soar through the nine heavens on a sword."
"Is it wrong for me to want to be a cultivator?"
"Why can you, and we cannot?"
"Are we worse than you?"
"If we had the method of cultivation, we could also become saviors of Wuyang City."
Chen Nan looked at the Jian family, a bitter smile on his face, "Survival of the fittest."
"That path, is it as simple as you imagine?"
"However, there's no point in saying this now."
"I just hope you don't regret it."
With that, he took Jian Ning and Li Mu and turned to leave.
"Father, I want Chen Nan dead."
"If he doesn't die, my hatred will not be appeased." Han Jian clutched his groin, his murderous intent growing stronger.
"Don't worry, Father will definitely get justice for you." Han Feipeng looked at his son with great pain.
His bird was gone at such a young age.
How could he continue the Han family line?
Thinking that he was still young.
He felt it was time to start a new life.
Thinking this.
He looked at the Jian family, "Elder Jian, many unexpected things have happened today."
"But."
"The wedding date will proceed as scheduled."
"In a month, my Han family's welcoming procession will appear at the Jian family's door."
"I don't need to tell you what to do, do I?"
Elder Jian's face was sallow, but he still said, "Mr. Han, rest assured. In a month, my granddaughter will surely put on her wedding dress and wait for the Han family's welcoming convoy."
The speed at which the Han family changed their tune was too fast.
Whether it was calling his granddaughter used goods.
Or publicly slapping his son's face.
These two things were beyond his expectation.
But now.
Did he have any other choice?
He could only brace himself and move forward!
Let's take it one step at a time!
Unexpectedly, Han Jian roared madly, "Father, I don't want to marry that woman anymore, I want her to die with Chen Nan!"
He also wanted to marry Jian Ning!
But.
His roots were gone.
What was the point of marrying her?
To look at?
To play with?
Although that was possible.
But this would only make him feel more and more incompetent.
Han Feipeng looked at his son with great pain, "Jian Jian, even if your life's root is gone, you are still a member of my Han family. Don't give up on yourself."
"Live each day well."
"The woman who belongs to you will always belong to you."
"As for certain matters, I will work hard in your place."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Everyone gasped.
They were not fools.
How could they not know what "certain matters" Han Feipeng was referring to?
It's just that.
Could the father also substitute for that kind of thing?
------
On the other side.
Li Mu also drove Chen Nan and Jian Ning back to the villa on the mountainside.
After dropping them off.
He drove away.
Chen Nan's return was a great joyous occasion.
He had to inform his former leaders.
*Riiiiip!*
As soon as they entered the villa.
Jian Ning tore off her wedding dress.
Like a hungry wolf.
She pounced on Chen Nan.
With practical actions, she released two years of longing.
Grievance.
Helplessness.
And all her pent-up emotions.
Then.
She bit Chen Nan's shoulder fiercely, weeping uncontrollably, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect my family to become like this. They don't deserve your respect."
Chen Nan had said that her relatives were not suitable for cultivation.
Even she herself didn't have the talent for cultivation.
Because of this.
He hadn't passed on cultivation techniques to them, only some longevity-extending pills.
But what pained her was.
Her closest relatives, in order to obtain the method of cultivation, disregarded her wishes and forcibly betrothed her to Han Jian.
If Chen Nan hadn't returned.
On the wedding day, she would have definitely chosen to die to prove her resolve.
Because then the Han family would have given the Jian family the latter part of the cultivation technique.
But now that Chen Nan was back.
She felt sorry for Chen Nan.
She felt heartache and resentment on Chen Nan's behalf.
Chen Nan said softly, "No matter what, they are your relatives."
"I have to give you face."
Suddenly.
Jian Jianhua's angry scolding came from outside, "Jian Ning, you shameless scoundrel, get out here quickly!"
