Zhao Zhiquan caught Long Aotian's corpse, almost spitting blood in anger, and roared, "Wretch, you've already killed him, what's the use of returning him to me?"

"If he's useless, then just discard him, why yell at me?" Chen Nan said calmly.

Zhao Zhiquan was almost driven mad with anger.

Could this kid have a powerful backer? He killed someone from Qianyuan Holy Land, yet still dared to be so dismissive.

Zhao Zhiquan's face turned livid, and he shouted angrily, "A life for a life. If you don't give an explanation today, my Qianyuan Holy Land will never let this rest!"

"You want an explanation?"

Chen Nan nodded and calmly uttered three words: "He deserved to die."

"What did you say?"

Zhao Zhiquan could hardly believe his ears, or rather, he couldn't believe there could be someone so reckless in this world.

"I said he deserved to die. Are you deaf?" Chen Nan glanced at him and coldly laughed, "I spared his life repeatedly, yet he relentlessly pursued me, insisting on my demise. The consequences of his actions are entirely his own fault, no one else is to blame!"

Zhao Zhiquan flared up, "You are far too dismissive of my Qianyuan Holy Land."

"Clang..."

Chen Nan thrust the Phoenix Wing Mace into the ground, causing the stone floor to crack, with the Tang Bing piercing half a foot deep.

He coldly glanced at Zhao Zhiquan and then at Ye Tianlong and others beside him. He raised his finger and shouted, "Your Qianyuan Holy Land may be a grand sect, but everything should be reasoned. Do you indulge your disciples to act arrogantly and bully those weaker?"

"Utter nonsense!"

Zhao Zhiquan glared around, scanning the onlookers, and said, "Are there any witnesses to what you say?"

Upon hearing this, the onlooking crowd quickly retreated.

They weren't ready to get in trouble with Qianyuan Holy Land, so at such a crucial moment, they naturally chose silence.

The Black Feathered Chicken shouted loudly, "The Chicken Lord can testify."

"You are in this together, you're bound to support him." Zhao Zhiquan pointed at Chen Nan, saying, "With no witnesses, your words and that of a chicken cannot be trusted. Today, I, Zhao Zhiquan, will take your life and seek justice for my junior brother!"

Chen Nan's face gradually turned cold, "I don't want trouble, Zhao, you better clarify who's truly at fault."

"Now with no witnesses, isn't it just your wild claims? If I don't cleave your head to the ground as tribute, my junior brother won't rest in peace even in death. You vile thief, prepare to die!" Zhao Zhiquan drew out a Flying Sword, glaring murderously at Chen Nan.

Chen Nan quietly looked at him, the Phoenix Wing Mace still upright on the ground: "I'm telling you again, I don't want trouble, don't force me to kill you."

"Such arrogant words!"

Zhao Zhiquan let out a cold laugh and directly charged at Chen Nan.

He raised his sword high, aiming it above Chen Nan's head, and slashed down, breaking through the void.

Chen Nan not only didn't move but closed his eyes.

Everyone present was anxious for him, feeling more nervous than he did. Some even thought Chen Nan believed he had no chance and chose to give up resistance, closing his eyes to await death.

However, just as they were ten meters apart, Chen Nan suddenly opened his eyes.

And at the moment he opened his eyes—

"Om"

The Heavenly Sound resounded, the void trembled.

A Divine Sense Heavenly Saber condensed at Chen Nan's brow, instantly slicing through the sky and charging into Zhao Zhiquan's Sea of Consciousness.

"Hong"

Another Heavenly Sound reverberated, resonating with the divine sense and soul.

Zhao Zhiquan barely had time to resist; his divine sense immediately collapsed, cut down by Chen Nan's Divine Sense Heavenly Saber.

After seizing the opponent's Sea of Consciousness, Chen Nan's Divine Sense Heavenly Saber mercilessly obliterated his soul.

"Clang..."

At the instant Chen Nan's divine sense withdrew, Zhao Zhiquan's sword fell to the ground.

Immediately, his body, like a collapsing mountain, fell with a thud to the ground, devoid of any life.

Just a moment ago, Zhao Zhiquan was angrily overbearing, yet in an instant he lost his life.

Though he was over fifty, his Cultivation Realm was still only the Tongtian Second Layer Heaven, just one layer higher than Long Aotian.

For reaching such realms, advancing each layer is exceedingly difficult, and the disparity in strength is vast.

Though Chen Nan had previously been able to knock Long Aotian from the sky with his mace, that was when he was exerting all his strength, even triggering All Character Secret's threefold strength at the time.

But now, facing Zhao Zhiquan from Tongtian Second Layer Heaven, he wasn't confident about his Inner Strength unless he activated Dragon Transformation.

Thus, Chen Nan resorted to a Divine Sense Attack.

Since he comprehended the Hongzi Heavenly Sound in the Dead City of the Tao Realm, his spiritual power fused with the Demon Shadow, his divine sense Cultivation far surpasses the same realm, powerful and unmatched. Moreover, with the surprise divine sense attack, Zhao Zhiquan barely had time to react; his Sea of Consciousness was quickly overtaken.

If Zhao Zhiquan had been prepared earlier, guarding his Sea of Consciousness with Inner Strength, Chen Nan wouldn't have had it so easy.

Unfortunately, he was too careless.

No one would have imagined a Martial Artist not from the Kuang Clan would possess such strong divine spiritual power.

After all, aside from the Kuang Clan, nearly all other Martial Artists have the weakest divine sense of any Cultivation System, and never have Martial Artists used divine sense to attack.

After all, this is not something Martial Artists excel at.

Cultivation emphasizes playing to strengths and avoiding weaknesses; no one would use their weakness against another's strength.

Thus, Zhao Zhiquan's recklessness led to his demise.

Looking at Zhao Zhiquan's fallen body, everyone present was stunned; this outcome was unexpected by anyone except Chen Nan.

Even the Black Feathered Chicken was somewhat disbelief at the reality before its eyes.

Some with higher Cultivation could see that Chen Nan took a life through divine sense, while the weaker ones were completely oblivious to the situation. They merely heard two sounds from Chen Nan's mouth; the next moment, Zhao Zhiquan had fallen.

"In broad daylight, slaying someone from my Qianyuan Holy Land is too audacious!"

With an angry tone, four men stood together, stepping on flying swords, heading this way. Ye Tianlong, lying on the ground, saw them as saviors, desperately calling out for senior brothers.

The disciples sent by Qianyuan Holy Land this time were spaced every ten years apart.

The four before them ranged from sixty to ninety-nine years old; they were the strongest among the Qianyuan Holy Land disciples on this trip.

Chen Nan frowned; these four were too formidable.

If it came to a fight, even with Dragon Transformation, he wouldn't stand a chance unless using the God Beating Whip.

However, in this situation, if he unleashed the God Beating Whip, his identity would be exposed, likely making him a villain among various sects instantly, drawing strong contenders from everywhere, and he might not even know how he died.

The current predicament was truly a dilemma!
