Seeing the sword light approaching, Chen Diao widened his eyes.

His goal was to create an irreconcilable conflict between the Zhi family and Chu Nan through these Cloud Sea Realm seeds of the Zhi family.

This would facilitate the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall's upcoming plans within the Zhi family.

He could also seize this opportunity to profit from it.

The reason why Chen Diao dared to constantly instigate Chu Nan and the Zhi family here was precisely because this was the Scripture Pavilion, the current ancestral grounds of the Zhi family!

If Chu Nan dared to make a move here, it would undoubtedly be an affront to the dignity of the Zhi family!

Therefore, he was so shocked when Chu Nan made his move.

"Bastard, do you dare to kill me on Zhi family's ancestral grounds?" Chen Diao shouted angrily at the top of his lungs.

Chu Nan ignored him, and the sword light became even more terrifying.

Zhi Qingping, seeing this, shouted, "Villain, how dare you!"

Chu Nan sneered, even though he wasn't a true Cloud Sea Realm Martial Artist, he was no longer an ant to be easily manipulated as he was in Qingshan County.

To kill a mere Divine Illumination Realm, Chen Diao, who dared to constantly challenge him, was nothing to Chu Nan.

Rip!

Just like that, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, the dazzling sword light pierced through Chen Diao's body.

Chen Diao widened his eyes, even in the moment of death, he couldn't believe Chu Nan really dared to kill him.

Plop!

The bloody body split in two, and the sprayed blood smeared on Zhi Qingping's face.

His terrified white face seemed to open several crimson plum blossoms.

"This person repeatedly slandered me, he deserved to die."

"If any of you are dissatisfied, come and try it."

Chu Nan sheathed his sword and arrogantly scanned Zhi Qingping and the others.

Zhi Qingping hurriedly wiped the blood off his face, couldn't help but step back with fear flashing across his face.

But soon he remembered this was the Zhi family, Zhi Qingping regained his confidence and then fell into a rage!

He strode forward, at this moment it no longer mattered whether the person in front of him was Chu Nan or not.

Daring to kill someone in the Scripture Pavilion, a heavy price must be paid!

"Villain, how dare you be so arrogant, not only sneaking into the Scripture Pavilion but also committing murder in public."

"With such deep sins, how can I allow you to exist!"

With that, Zhi Qingping intended to take action to punish Chu Nan on behalf of the Zhi family.

Chu Nan found it amusing, but he didn't want to waste time; as long as Zhi Qingping dared to make a move, he must pay the price.

Though it wasn't to the extent of killing Zhi Qingping, he would have to lie in bed for ten days or so.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone said, "Calm down, calm down, this villain killed Chen Diao with one sword, his strength is extraordinary!"

This remark made Zhi Qingping calm down.

Chu Nan was a bit disappointed. He was currently seeking cooperation with the Zhi family, and if Zhi Qingping didn't make the first move, he really couldn't just casually hurt people.

Zhi Qingping snorted coldly and said in an undeniable tone, "Villain, prepare to meet your death."

"The Zhi family's Thunder-Split Fire Sheath is not something you can withstand, a swift death will be your best end."

Zhi Qingping intended to bring out the Zhi family to make Chu Nan surrender.

Facing such a naive guy, Chu Nan felt somewhat helpless.

He thought to himself, "Though the children of big families have everything, they are also too well-protected."

"They don't know the dangers of the world at all, thinking they can intimidate strong enemies just with their name?"

Chu Nan lost interest completely and was about to use the Wind Thunder Step to leave. With the strength of these people, they absolutely couldn't catch up with Chu Nan.

But at that moment, another group walked down from the upper floors of the Scripture Pavilion.

Upon seeing this, Zhi Qingping was instantly overjoyed and stared at Chu Nan saying, "Villain, you're finished this time, with our Zhi family's Cloud Sea Realm elder, let's see what you can do now!"

With that, Zhi Qingping hurriedly said, "Greetings, Elder Zhi Tian, we discovered an intruder in the Scripture Pavilion."

"Not only did he forge the ancestor's token, but he also committed murder in the Scripture Pavilion!"

"I request Elder Zhi Tian to take action and punish this villain!"

Zhi Qingping spoke powerfully and Zhi Tian showed a strange expression, saying, "Such a thing, I must see who is bold enough to cause trouble in our Zhi family's Scripture Pavilion!"

Although Zhi Tian's status wasn't high among the elders, he had the instinct to protect the family.

Surrounded by a group of Zhi family disciples, he walked down the stairs, ready to say a few harsh words when he saw Chu Nan and froze on the spot.

"The villain you're talking about is him?" Zhi Tian asked incredulously.

Zhi Qingping replied confidently, "Yes, Elder Zhi Tian!"

"This person is extremely arrogant, just now he even killed Chen Diao of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, if such a villain is not eliminated, how will our Zhi family intimidate foreign tribes?"

"I request the elder to not only catch him but also to let him endure all the tortures of our Zhi family."

"It's best to find his family and friends, one by one, all of them..."

Zhi Tian's mouth twitched slightly, and seeing Chu Nan's increasingly cold gaze, he immediately became furious.

Smack!

"Shut up!"

A loud slap struck Zhi Qingping's face, directly sending him flying to the ground.

Zhi Qingping covered his face, utterly baffled, "Elder, you hit the wrong person, you should be hitting that villain!"

Instead of getting the answer he wanted, Zhi Qingping received a more furious scolding from Zhi Tian.

"You blind fool, I hit you!"

"Open your eyes wide and take a good look, this is Chu Nan brought back by Zhi Qingge from the outside world to treat the Demon Blood ailment!"

"He is not some villain!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone widened their eyes, most of them had basically believed Chen Diao's words, so they turned a deaf ear to Chu Nan's explanation.

But now seeing Zhi Tian standing on Chu Nan's side and vouching for his identity, most people were not skeptical anymore.

Only Zhi Qingping remained convinced Chu Nan was a villain, it wasn't that he was being foolish, but he couldn't believe it.

He couldn't imagine how much trouble he would be in for offending Chu Nan, who was the only one capable of single-handedly treating the Demon Blood ailment, within the Zhi family.

It wasn't impossible that killing him would calm Chu Nan's anger.

"No, no! He's a villain, he's a villain!"

Zhi Qingping screamed hysterically.

Zhi Tian didn't bother with Zhi Qingping and instead looked at Chu Nan, saying, "Friend Chu Nan, I apologize for letting this blind fool spoil your mood."

"How do you wish to punish him? I apologize on behalf of the family."

Chu Nan indifferently waved his hand, "No problem, just follow the Zhi family's family law."

He didn't plan to let these people off easily; facing such offenses without taking action might lead to being underestimated and provoke desires for revenge.

But Chu Nan couldn't handle it lightly or harshly, as there was still a need to cooperate with the Zhi family.

So he gave the choice to Zhi Tian.

However, the harshness of the Zhi family's family law surprised Chu Nan a bit.

Upon hearing that Chu Nan let Zhi Tian decide, everyone, including Zhi Qingping, showed expressions of fear.

Zhi Qingping's legs even shook in fright, his lips turned pale.

Then, Zhi Tian said ruthlessly, "Zhi Qingping, you offended the guest of the ancestor. According to family law, besides the main offender Zhi Qingping, each of you will receive ten Celestial Thunders at the Law Enforcement Hall!"

"As for the main offender Zhi Qingping, in addition to the ten Celestial Thunders, he will be subjected to Earth Fire roasting for one incense stick."

"Now, go and accept your punishment with peace."
