Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 699 699: Huo Jiantang's Fear

Huo Mingxian skillfully used a holy-grade Spirit Martial to trap Lu Daochang, intending to create favorable conditions for Huo Jiantang to annihilate Chu Nan and eradicate the Ancestor Sect.

However, no one could have predicted that Huo Jiantang, at the Nine Heavens Realm level, would be so easily defeated by Chu Nan.

The cage initially meant to assist Huo Jiantang actually became a boon for Chu Nan at this moment.

Seeing that victory was within Chu Nan's grasp, Lu Daochang immediately entangled Huo Mingxian tightly.

Though Huo Mingxian had just entered the Nine Heavens, she was a Martial Artist who had visited the Heavenly Balance Realm, and no one knew how many ultimate skills she held.

Thus, trapping her here, preventing her from exercising her capabilities, was undoubtedly the best strategy.

Huo Mingxian watched in horror as Huo Jiantang was about to be defeated, and in extreme panic, she cursed, "Why is this happening!"

"Chu Fang, you, who were invincible, have perished, and you should not allow your offspring to continue scraping by in this lower realm!"

Countless images flashed before Huo Mingxian's eyes. When she looked at Chu Nan, she seemed to see a silhouette from the past overlapping with him.

That was the strongest presence in the history of the Celestial Crossing Realm after the two realms split.

He, once her master, was also the hero who saved the lower realm and was Chu Nan's father! Huo Mingxian was full of longing, hoping to gain his favor, yet he never turned his gaze toward her.

The most unbearable for Huo Mingxian was that in Chu Fang's eyes, the Royal Family and Strong Race seemed insignificant, like a bunch of complacent ants. If not for the Sword Demon causing the riot that swept through the Heavenly Balance Realm, Chu Fang might have already destroyed the Qin Kingdom.

Huo Mingxian felt indignant; the Strong Race and Royal Family occupied the core of the Celestial Crossing Realm, being the victors after the division of the two realms. How could they be so lightly regarded? She yearned to nurture an invincible existence, born from the Strong Race and commanding the lower realm, and this wish ultimately rested upon Huo Jiantang.

Huo Jiantang, who carried the purest bloodline of the Huo family, was gifted and remarkable. Huo Mingxian invested all her expectations in him, yet perhaps these expectations would turn to ashes today along with Huo Jiantang's death.

"Why! Why is it Chu Fang's son who kills Huo Jiantang? I'm not willing! I'm not willing!" Huo Mingxian roared with all her might, but no matter how she struggled, she could only watch helplessly as Huo Jiantang charged toward Chu Nan like a moth to a flame.

The soaring Sword Aura appeared to be Huo Jiantang's last splendor in his decades of life. Desperate and frenzied, he wanted to exhaust his last strength to slay Chu Nan here.

"Chu Nan, die!" His momentum was unparalleled, like an invincible dragon emerging into the world. The roar of the sword resounded, causing the entire heaven and earth to tremble.

A large number of the Huo family's Martial Artists were swept away by the Sword Qi, turning into minced meat on the spot.

Yet, in this shocking moment, Huo Jiantang, who wished to cut down Chu Nan with his sword, had already disregarded the life and death of the Huo family disciples.

The Dragon Beast opened its bloodthirsty maw and devoured crazily, while the Sword Qi swept in like raging waves.

The Martial Artists of the Huo family let out horrific screams; the scene was like the inferno on earth, terrifying beyond description.

However, in the face of such a tragic scene, Chu Nan remained as cold as ice.

Without a hint of emotion, he operated the Zangba Evil Body, as if he were an unshakeable War God.

Even in his normal state, Chu Nan could slay Huo Jiantang, but he wanted to use even greater power to plunge the opponent into an abyss of desperation.

Chak!

Chu Nan casually swung a world-shattering Sword Qi, thunderous and deafening.

The clear ringing of the sword echoed between heaven and earth, like a death knell from Hell.

Following this, a crescent-like Sword Qi, with an apocalyptic momentum, slashed down fiercely. The Sword Qi pierced through everything below like a long rainbow through the sun.

Divine Sword Abyss fiercely devoured everything around it like a ravenous tiger pouncing on its prey.

Puff!

Huo Jiantang spat out fresh blood, staining the sky like a rain of blood. Faced with Chu Nan's invincible presence, he was utterly powerless and could only flee in defeat.

Endless fear and despair enveloped Huo Jiantang's mind. Could it be that he could not match Chu Nan even after exhausting all his strength?

"Hmph!" Chu Nan snorted coldly, like a thunderous explosion, a sharp killing intent glinted in his eyes.

Today, Huo Jiantang's death was inevitable, and no one could stop his killing intent!

"Escape!" Driven by a strong will to survive, Huo Jiantang lost all his fighting spirit, frantically trying to flee this land of death.

Woosh!

At that moment, a dazzling Sword Light caught up with Huo Jiantang like lightning.

With killing intent bursting from Chu Nan's eyes, he caught up with Huo Jiantang in an instant and relentless drew out his sword!

The Sword Qi was like a long rainbow, filled with murderous intent, tearing a vicious gash into Huo Jiantang's back like a ferocious wolf.

His flesh, bones, organs, all exposed in the cold air.

"Ah!" Huo Jiantang screamed miserably, like a kite with a broken string falling from the sky.

Like a specter, Chu Nan flew up and coldly declared, "That last strike was for the wrongfully killed Martial Artists of the Ancestor Sect!"

"And this next strike is for my sister and Nianxue!"

Another sword descended, Huo Mingxian saw this scene and howled in despair, "Chu Nan, if you kill Huo Jiantang, the Huo family will never let you go even if it means pursuing you to the ends of the earth!"

Facing Huo Mingxian's threat, Chu Nan sneered with disdain. The Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword in his hand fell mercilessly like a venomous serpent.

Rip!

Chu Nan, driving the Sword Qi, ruthlessly severed Huo Jiantang's arms in the most brutal manner possible. Bright red blood gushed like a river breaking its banks, akin to blooming lotuses of blood.

The rampant Sword Qi ravaged the place, and Huo Jiantang lost all his pride, pleading for mercy like a stray dog under the threat of death, "Chu Nan, please spare me, I promise the Huo family will never trouble you again."

Huo Jiantang, in utter terror, begged desperately for his life, disregarding all dignity.

Seeing Chu Nan's resolute killing intent, Huo Mingxian hastily said, "Chu Nan, stop immediately!"

"As long as you spare my nephew, I am willing to grant you a holy-grade Spirit Martial!"

A holy-grade Spirit Martial? Chu Nan seemed indifferent to it. In his eyes, the so-called holy-grade Spirit Martial was insignificant!

He directly ignored Huo Jiantang's pleas and Huo Mingxian's request, charging toward Huo Jiantang like a storm, sternly declaring, "Huo Jiantang, this last sword is the consequence you must bear for repeatedly provoking me! And this consequence can only be death!"

Notionally like overwhelming waves, the Sword Qi was ready to unleash, and at this moment, Huo Jiantang had completely lost his ability to resist, helplessly choosing to beg for forgiveness.

Seeing the Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword about to descend, Huo Mingxian became utterly frantic, hurriedly exclaiming again, "Chu Nan, spare Huo Jiantang and I'll give you three holy-grade Spirit Martials!"

These words made even Lu Daochang, the supreme sect leader, raise an eyebrow. Three holy-grade Spirit Martials, truly a generous offer.

Yet, Huo Mingxian's words failed to sway Chu Nan.

As Huo Jiantang was about to meet his demise, Huo Mingxian, disregarding everything else, cried out desperately, "Spare Huo Jiantang, and I will return all the things entrusted to me by your parents!"
