Listening to everyone's discussion about the Sect Leader's son, Chu Nan's face went expressionless.
He couldn't understand how he got mistaken for Chu Lingshan's son.
"There's no staying in the Spirit Corpse Sect anymore. If Chu Lingshan finds out about this, he might mistakenly think I'm spreading rumors, using his name to scare people."
"By then, it won't be so easy to leave the Spirit Corpse Sect."
Chu Nan was even more determined to leave the Spirit Corpse Sect.
Swish, swish, swish~
As each Inner Sect Disciple left through the Teleportation Array, Chu Nan's anticipation grew.
But just when it was about to be Chu Nan's turn, someone suddenly rushed to the front and said to the disciples guarding the Teleportation Array, "Elder Chen has ordered to seal the Teleportation Array, no one can leave for three days!"
As soon as he said this, Chu Nan's eyes widened. He quickly stepped forward, taking out a few pieces of origin stone and handed them to the person, saying, "Senior Brother, I have urgent business and need to leave the sect for a while. Could you do me a favor?"
The other party's eyes shone brightly at Chu Nan's origin stones, but soon regained his sense: "No way, if I let you leave and Elder Chen finds out, he'll kill me!"
"All junior brothers, return now, three days later will be still timely to leave the sect."
Seeing the other party so firm, the disciples who were ready to leave left disappointedly.
Chu Nan followed the crowd, silently clenching his fists. He knew this was Chen Bo targeting him.
That guy was probably afraid he'd run away, so he directly sealed the Teleportation Array.
Now, even the gates of the Spirit Corpse Sect were probably being guarded.
"Forget it, soldiers come to block, water come to cover with earth."
"Chen Bo, come if you want to settle accounts, I, Chu Nan, am not afraid of you!"
With this thought in mind, Chu Nan felt relieved instead of conflicted and walked briskly towards his residence.
But as soon as he reached the courtyard gate, he found many disciples gathering there, blocking the gate completely.
Zhou Xiaohao stood at the back of a group of disciples, desperately trying to squeeze in but couldn't.
Chu Nan frowned slightly at this scene. He pulled Zhou Xiaohao aside and asked, "What's going on, why are so many people gathered here?"
Zhou Xiaohao was somewhat surprised to see Chu Nan, then helplessly said, "They say the Sect Leader's son lives here, and everyone came to curry favor and visit."
"Who knows which bastard spread this, the Sect Leader's son has such a noble status, how could he possibly live in this shabby place."
"They also say the Sect Leader's son shares the same surname with the Sect Leader, isn't that nonsense? It's passed down the line, could it be any other surname? Wouldn't you agree, Chu Nan?"
"Chu Nan..."
Zhou Xiaohao's eyes widened in shock, and then he exclaimed, "Brother Chu Nan, could they be talking about..."
Chu Nan quickly covered Zhou Xiaohao's mouth and warned, "Lower your voice, I'm not the Sect Leader's son, it's a misunderstanding."
"I seriously injured Chen Bo's son, Chen Ran. This news must have been intentionally spread by him to get at me."
"If you believe me, blink."
Zhou Xiaohao quickly blinked, and Chu Nan immediately let go.
Zhou Xiaohao took a few deep breaths, "You've only been in the sect for a few days yet you seriously injured Chen Ran? Are you joking?"
Chu Nan smiled helplessly, "I'm now an Inner Sect Disciple of the Spirit Corpse Sect. Do you think I'd be joking?"
"You've become an Inner Sect member!" Zhou Xiaohao's mouth hung open in disbelief, finally sighing deeply, "You've only been in the Spirit Corpse Sect for five days and already advanced from Outer Sect to Inner."
"I've been here for years and still can't refine a Flying Corpse. I guess I really have no talent for corpse refinement."
"Chu Nan, let me know when you're planning to leave; I might just return to my hometown."
Chu Nan felt somewhat helpless, but this incident indeed was a huge blow to Zhou Xiaohao.
Just as he was about to console Zhou Xiaohao, someone overheard him mentioning Chu Nan's name, then immediately turned around.
Someone quickly spotted Chu Nan and excitedly said, "Look, there's no mistake."
"Chu Nan, he's the Sect Leader's son!"
With these words, dozens of gazes immediately turned towards Chu Nan, all gathering around him, respectfully saying, "Greetings, Senior Brother."
Tens of voices merged, the sound was deafening, soon attracting nearby martial artists as well.
Chu Nan saw this, his face darkened. It felt as if someone was working against him.
Most of those who believed he was Chu Lingshan's only son were Chen Bo's disciples; there's no way this guy wouldn't know afterward.
Though whether Chen Bo believed it or not was uncertain, it was definitely him who fanned the flames.
The people in front of him probably weren't certain themselves, but with enough people saying it, they had no choice but to believe it.
If it reached Chu Lingshan's ears, Chu Nan couldn't guarantee he wouldn't blame him.
Even if he didn't blame him, to quell the turmoil, he likely wouldn't have any good outcomes.
By that time, it might severely delay his return to Cyan Profound Mansion.
At this moment, Chu Nan hated Chen Bo to the core. That guy directly pushed him to the spotlight.
"I've said it countless times, I'm not the Sect Leader's son!" Chu Nan still wanted to explain, but no one would listen, it was as though they knew he wanted to hide his identity, yet they insisted on clinging on for support.
"We understand your words, Brother Chu. Rest assured, we'll help disguise your identity to outsiders."
"Brother Chu, you've been secluded on the Mountain of Ten Thousand Corpses, what realm have you reached?"
"Brother Chu, show us your Spirit Corpse, let the junior brothers broaden their horizons…"
Everyone was talking at once, crazily flattering Chu Nan.
Chu Nan understood this too, who wouldn't want to cling to someone who just stood out? But in reality, he wasn't that prominent...
Just when Chu Nan was getting entangled, trying to forcibly leave, an ominous wave came from not far away.
"Chu Nan, I finally found you!" A dark cloud flew in quickly from afar, Chen Bo descending from the sky, landing beside Chu Nan with a face full of anger.
His face was angry, questioning Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, do you confess to your crime?"
Seeing Chen Bo, Chu Nan's brows knit tightly, he said, "Elder Chen, what crime could Chu Nan be accused of?"
Chen Bo had been waiting for those words, he sneered coldly, "Chu Nan, you provoked Chen Ran without reason, seriously injuring him, your actions are so cruel, you disgrace our Sect."
"Today, I will clean up the house for the Sect Leader!"
With that, Chen Bo's cultivation was unleashed, the terrifying pressure of the Divine Illumination Realm fourth tier shook all around.
The aura was thick, unbelievably frightening.
And it wasn't over, with a single hand gesture, three Black-haired Spirit Corpses appeared, instantly casting hundreds of meters into chilling cold.
Chu Nan's pupils shrank, realizing that each of these Spirit Corpses had Divine Illumination Realm strength at random, remarkably Wandering Corpses above the Flying Corpses.
And they weren't just simple Wandering Corpses, looking at the black hair's length, two of them were top-grade Wandering Corpses, and one was an exceptional Wandering Corpse, comparable to a Martial Artist of the Divine Illumination Realm ninth tier.
Compared to these Wandering Corpses, Chen Bo's Divine Illumination Realm fourth tier cultivation seemed somewhat laughable.
This situation was normal in the Spirit Corpse Sect, after all, from the Sect Leader to the disciples, all focused on corpse refinement.
Spirit Corpses being stronger than their masters wasn't unusual at all.
