Chapter 672 672: Consecutive Betrayals
Chu Nan led the members of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, forcefully descending upon Blood Evil City.
The assembly of the Slaying Emperors never expected that Chu Nan would appear while they were holding their Slaying Emperor meeting.
Someone immediately reacted, looking in Bai Youyou's direction, and shouted, "Fourth Slaying Emperor, what is happening here!"
Something unexpected occurred; Bai Youyou had long since left her original position without anyone noticing, and appeared respectfully by Chu Nan's side, saying, "Bai Youyou greets Master, glad I have not failed you!"
This scene stunned those who were unclear of the situation; a dignified peak Eightfold Heaven expert, one of the captains of the Bai family from the Jin Kingdom, actually called Chu Nan master.
What virtues or abilities did Chu Nan possess to have such charm that Bai Youyou would acknowledge him as her master?
Or perhaps, Chu Nan used some method to make Bai Youyou submit.
"Chu Nan... I didn't expect it to be you." A complex voice suddenly sounded, belonging to Zhi Polang.
Previously, upon hearing that the master of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall was Chu Nan, he never linked this Chu Nan with the Chu Nan he knew.
After all, it was hard to imagine that Chu Nan, who had just entered the Cloud Sea Realm less than a year ago, could make the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall recognize him as master.
However, the scene of Chu Nan standing on the Eightfold Heaven peak Demon Beast was so real that he had no choice but to believe it.
Chu Nan also spotted Zhi Polang, his eyes immediately lit up with joy.
Zhi Polang was a Sevenfold Heaven martial artist; his strength was not weak and he was a significant help here.
So Chu Nan looked at Zhi Polang and said, "Great Ancestor of the Zhi family, what are you waiting for, have you forgotten our agreement?"
Zhi Polang, exposed by Chu Nan, sighed and said, "I have not forgotten, of course."
Then, under the surprised gazes of everyone, Zhi Polang flew over to Chu Nan's side.
This scene immediately left people stunned; the two great Slaying Emperors of the Slaughter Emperor Sect surrendered before the battle even began, which gravely impacted morale.
"Bai Youyou, Zhi Polang, what exactly are you doing!" At this point, they no longer used the honorifics for Slaying Emperors and directly called out names angrily.
Bai Youyou faced the scolding expressionlessly and said, "Although I am the Fourth Slaying Emperor of the Slaughter Emperor Sect, I am also the master's servant; isn't it natural for a servant to obey their master?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was furious, and immediately realized that all of this was Chu Nan's doing.
Certainly, Bai Youyou must have been defeated by Chu Nan when she went to the Desolate Ancient City, and then used some methods to acknowledge him as master.
Then everyone looked at Zhi Polang and said, "Zhi Polang, what about you!"
Zhi Polang stood firmly beside Chu Nan, his voice deep, "I joined the Slaughter Emperor Sect for the future of the Zhi family, and I cooperate with Chu Nan for the future of the Zhi family too."
"My highest priority here has always been the family; Chu Nan and the Zhi family signed an alliance, so it's as if he signed with me."
"So compared to the Slaughter Emperor Sect, Chu Nan, who holds an alliance with the Zhi family, takes higher priority."
With these words, the Slaughter Emperors of the Slaughter Emperor Sect were even more enraged.
Bai Youyou's weakness and forced submission by Chu Nan could be somewhat understood.
But you, Zhi Polang, have been a Slaying Emperor in the sect for so many years, turning coat without hesitation just doesn't seem right.
Yet Zhi Polang didn't care about any of this.
He had seen Chu Nan turn the tide in the Zhi Family Secret Realm and gain recognition from the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall in less than a year.
Appearing at Blood Evil City today was evidently well-prepared.
Trusting Chu Nan, Zhi Polang believed that the final victor would definitely be Chu Nan's side.
Thus, Zhi Polang chose to betray the Slaughter Emperor Sect without hesitation.
The assembly of Slaying Emperors were enraged, declaring intentions to kill Bai Youyou and Zhi Polang for being traitors to the Slaughter Emperor Sect.
Chu Nan's expression remained unchanged, his gaze set on the First Slaying Emperor.
As the strongest of the Slaughter Emperor Sect, only he deserved Chu Nan's attention.
The First Slaying Emperor looked up at Chu Nan; the eyes beneath the dragon-patterned mask exuded cold killing intent, and he said slowly, "Chu Nan, new Hall Master of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, what brings you to our Slaughter Emperor Sect today?"
"To intrude without the master's permission seems impolite."
Sitting on the Dragon Beast's head, Chu Nan chuckled lightly and said, "I haven't come here to battle today, but to bring you all a great opportunity."
Opportunity?
Hearing Chu Nan speak of bringing an opportunity, the Slaying Emperors' expressions were varied; they didn't believe him, yet somehow felt a sense of anticipation.
The First Slaying Emperor remained seated, speaking slowly, "I would like to hear more."
Chu Nan said, "The Qin Royal Family and the strong races have oppressed the Celestial Crossing Realm for ages; now that I control the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, I intend to restore order."
"Would you all be willing to follow my Desolate Ancient Holy Hall and fight back against the Qin Kingdom and annihilate the strong races!"
Chu Nan hinted at recruitment, hoping to have the Slaughter Emperor Sect join forces with the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall.
Upon hearing this, the Slaying Emperors were instantly even angrier.
"What a pipe dream!"
"A naive young lad, thinking you'd have us follow you, what a joke."
"You think you're qualified to cooperate with us? If you truly want to show sincerity, why not offer the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall you control and let us explore it freely."
"That's right, present the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, then our Slaughter Emperor Sect might consider joining forces with you, of course, you must listen to us, not the other way around."
The Slaying Emperors exchanged words, not taking Chu Nan seriously at all.
In their eyes, Chu Nan was too weak; even if he could subdue Bai Youyou, there were others stronger than Bai Youyou, like the Second Slaying Emperor and the first at the peak of Ninefold Heaven.
Even in alliance, it wouldn't be Chu Nan's place to command them.
The First Slaying Emperor also chuckled lightly at this time and said, "Chu Nan, it seems my Slaying Emperors aren't interested in your proposal."
"If you truly want to cooperate, you could start by surrendering the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall. Seeing your sincerity, we might consider your suggestion."
"After all, with your power, it's sheer fantasy to think you might take down our Slaughter Emperor Sect!"
The First Slaying Emperor slowly stood up; the invisible pressure of a Ninefold Heaven martial artist enveloped the entire place, sparking reverence and excitement among the Slaying Emperors.
They looked at Chu Nan with provocative gazes, as if saying, with the First Slaying Emperor as a Ninefold Heaven martial artist, no matter how talented or extraordinary you are, you are no match for us.
Facing the active provocation of the Slaughter Emperor Sect, Chu Nan chuckled lightly and then said, "You say my strength is insufficient, then please watch carefully now to see if my strength is indeed sufficient!"
As the words fell, a graceful figure slowly emerged from behind Chu Nan; it was none other than Jiang Meier.
The pressure of Ninefold Heaven was instantly released, and the expressions of the Slaying Emperors changed dramatically!
