Just like that, You Hanyang led a group of Lin family disciples directly into the array outside Shaoyang Palace, while Lin Yian closely followed Chu Nan, vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Chu Nan watched this group crowd around You Hanyang, assuming that You Hanyang could certainly protect them, and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

Enough words have been spoken, if they seek their own death, they can't blame me.

After walking several dozen meters, everyone was unharmed and getting closer to Shaoyang Palace.

You Hanyang used his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings but found nothing amiss, so he said, "This array may have been strong once, but after so long it's probably collapsed on its own."

"Everyone, rest easy and move forward, there's a rare opportunity before us."

At this moment, Lin Feng also chimed in, "That's right, what danger could Shaoyang Palace possibly hold? Some people's cultivation is just too low, and they are timid and overly cautious."

"In my opinion, he isn't even worth..."

"Ah!" Before Lin Feng could finish, a red bolt of lightning suddenly descended from above, striking beside him in an instant.

A martial artist of the Lin family let out a tragic scream, exploding into a mist of blood before he had time to react.

The blood mist splattered everywhere, falling onto the crowd, especially Lin Feng who turned into a blood man.

Chu Nan vigilantly scanned the surroundings, noticing that the scenery began to twist and change, and before long, transformed into a blood-colored world.

Streaks of blood-colored lightning flashed across the sky, exuding endless killing intent.

"Stay by me!" Without hesitation, Chu Nan shielded Lin Yian by his side, summoning the Blood Pattern Sword to survey the surroundings.

Lin Feng and the others screamed in terror, frantically crowding towards You Hanyang.

Seeing this, You Hanyang roared in anger, "Fools, don't move recklessly, be careful not to trigger the array!"

He looked livid; having just stated this place was safe, yet someone died, it felt like being slapped in the face.

You Hanyang never anticipated that this array was so well-concealed, with no sign before it activated, which led to his complacency.

Lin Yian scolded, "I told you this place was dangerous, but none of you took it seriously."

Noticing Lin Yian's accusatory gaze, You Hanyang felt somewhat resentful.

Trying to salvage his image, You Hanyang said, "Don't worry, everyone. I have some insights into the Array Dao from the Battle Academy; give me some time and I can find a way to break the array."

Lin Feng hurriedly echoed, "Rest assured, everyone. Senior Brother You will definitely lead us out; it was just an accident just now."

Everyone calmed down, then cautiously watched the surroundings.

But Chu Nan frowned deeply, he knew nothing about the Array Dao, couldn't see any mysteries within.

So he had no choice but to ask Kui Guang, "Sword Venerable Master, what array is this? Do you know how to break it?"

Kui Guang was, after all, an extremely ancient and powerful martial artist with extraordinary knowledge.

"Breaking this array isn't difficult," Kui Guang slowly responded, "This place is mainly a test, not truly meant to block visitors."

Joy sparked in Chu Nan's heart as Kui Guang continued, "This is the higher array of the Blood Killing Array, the Blood Killing Thunder Shock Array. The array hub is made with the corpse of a Divine Illumination Realm demon beast. Unless you break the hub, the array is hard to break. So, just find the array hub and you can break it."

Finding the array hub is the way?

Simple words, but they complicated things for Chu Nan. How could one find the array hub?

The array hub is the core of the array, often hidden very tightly, and with his cultivation at the Yang Wheel level, finding it was extremely difficult.

"Sword Venerable Master, then where is this array hub?" Unable to find it himself, Chu Nan directly asked Kui Guang for an answer.

Kui Guang chuckled slightly, scolding, "Fool, the core of this array uses the corpse of a Divine Illumination Realm demon beast it's refined from. As long as it's a corpse, it has yin fiend energy; you have the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, just use it to see."

"To need the sovereign to teach you something so basic, truly foolish."

Chu Nan felt a bit embarrassed, realizing he was relying too heavily on Kui Guang.

As he prepared to activate the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, Kui Guang reminded him, "This array, a higher-level array of the Blood Killing Array, is very deceptive; though there's a common ground, its essence is entirely different."

"Never attack anywhere other than the array hub, lest you suffer a backlash."

Chu Nan nodded silently, then, while the distant others weren't paying attention, activated the Yin Evil Celestial Eye to search for the array hub.

Beside him, Lin Yian, upon seeing Chu Nan's Celestial Eye, couldn't help but shrink her pupils, shocked inwardly.

The Celestial Eye? When did Chu Nan open the Celestial Eye!

The Celestial Eye's value rivals rare constitutions and the difficulty of opening it is immense, requiring both opportunity and talent.

Lin Yian gained a new understanding of Chu Nan's strength, realizing as he used the Celestial Eye to scan all around, he must have a way to break the array.

Yet, at this moment, You Hanyang suddenly laughed loudly, "I got it, I figured it out!"

Lin Feng hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother You, you know the way to break the array?"

You Hanyang nodded, and everyone showed a look of joy.

Chu Nan withdrew the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, looking at You Hanyang, curious.

You Hanyang said triumphantly, "This array is called the Blood Killing Array, with one array hub and eighty-one array patterns. Break those patterns, and the Blood Killing Array will dissolve on its own!"

"I can use spiritual sense to find the array patterns, then break them one by one. By then, Shaoyang Palace's opportunity will be ours."

After speaking, You Hanyang puffed up his chest and even secretly glanced at Lin Yian, only to find she wasn't even looking at him.

"Senior Brother You is amazing!" Lin Feng immediately praised, leading the Lin family's martial artists in flattery.

Meanwhile, Chu Nan's face turned dark; he hadn't found the array hub yet and couldn't let You Hanyang's foolishness ruin things.

So Chu Nan advised, "How about checking again? This array doesn't seem that simple."

Seeing someone disagree, You Hanyang's face changed and Lin Feng quickly rebuked Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, it's not your place to speak."

"Senior Brother You already found the solution, if you don't help, don't create trouble for us either."

Lin Yian immediately expressed dissatisfaction, "Chu Nan just offered a suggestion, Lin Feng, your mouth is too foul."

"Junior Brother Lin, since Chu Nan has an idea, let him speak," You Hanyang said, pretending to be magnanimous.

Lin Feng was unconvinced, "Chu Nan is only at Yang Wheel Level Seven, how can he compare to you, Senior Brother? I think it was him that triggered the array, causing someone to die."

Upon hearing this, the Lin family people felt even more hostile towards Chu Nan.

Especially seeing Lin Yian always on Chu Nan's side, they felt very jealous.

"You..." Lin Yian was red with anger, unable to speak for a while.

Seeing their attitudes, Chu Nan no longer felt like persuading them, so he took Lin Yian by the arm and said, "Come with me."

Lin Yian didn't understand what he intended but still followed Chu Nan to leave the spot.

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng immediately laughed, "Chu Nan, admit it, you are ashamed and leaving."

Everyone concurred, thinking Chu Nan was leaving out of embarrassment.

After creating some distance, Chu Nan shook his head and said, "I don't want to get struck by lightning because of someone's foolishness."
