Peerless Dragon Sovereign-Chapter 526: Huo Mingxian’s Demand
Chu Nan did not speak, knowing that this matter would not be so simple, Huo Mingxian could not easily agree to his request.
Sure enough, Huo Mingxian immediately said, "However, before fulfilling these conditions, you must first agree to a condition of mine. After all, I've raised Huo Nianfang for almost sixteen years; even if there is no merit, there is hard work."
Huo Mingxian did not deny that Huo Nianfang was Chu Nan's sister. As an outsider, she was more aware of many things than Chu Nan and his sister.
Maintaining his composure, Chu Nan calmly said, "What condition do you have? Just say it without reservation."
If these conditions could be easily met, Chu Nan wouldn't mind agreeing to Huo Mingxian. However, if they were too excessive, he wouldn't agree easily.
Desire glimmered in Huo Mingxian's eyes as she said, "I want your blood, half a square will suffice."
"Just a little blood, for the truth of that year, and for your sister, you wouldn't refuse, would you?"
As she spoke, she took out a container just suitable for storing half a square of Chu Nan's Treasure Blood.
Chu Nan frowned deeply, as his cultivation improved, the ability of the Treasure Blood within him became increasingly terrifying.
Even he was not entirely sure what effect this blood would have if consumed by someone else.
And Huo Mingxian, evidently very knowledgeable about the Treasure Blood, eagerly pursued it, even to the extent of enticing Huo family's strongmen to besiege and kill him.
Chu Nan even suspected that Huo Mingxian might have consumed his Treasure Blood in the past!
"To want my blood, you know it's impossible for me to give it to you!" Chu Nan firmly refused, leaving no room for negotiation.
Zhi Tianping was somewhat curious about what was so unusual about Chu Nan's blood that it garnered so much attention from the Huo family.
Huo Mingxian's face turned cold, feeling furious at Chu Nan's refusal.
She then said, "Since you are unwilling to agree, then you will never know the truth, and you can forget about seeing Huo Nianfang!"
With that, Huo Mingxian flicked her long sleeves and turned to leave.
Chu Nan immediately threatened, "Huo Mingxian, I came to negotiate this time, but next time there will be no room for discussion!"
Martial Dao pressure erupted as Chu Nan showed his determination to resort to force if Huo Mingxian did not agree.
A hint of caution appeared in Huo Mingxian's eyes, but she retorted stubbornly, "So what if you have the Supreme Sect Leader behind you? This is Huo family territory, even the Supreme Sect Leader would not dare to risk accompanying you lightly."
"Even if the Supreme Sect Leader intervenes, the Huo family has a Nine Heavens Grand Ancestor, enough to counter it despite being slightly inferior."
In the Imperial Capital Ba Yang City, top strongmen of the Nine Heavens are rare even among the ten strong races.
Only the Royal Family, Huo, Zhou, Ancestor Sect, and similar forces have Nine Heavens cultivators.
Chu Nan communicated with his storage bag using his spiritual sense, then said, "Huo Mingxian, you don't think I, Chu Nan, have gotten this far relying only on a Supreme Sect Leader, do you?"
From within the storage bag, Lu Yao unleashed a powerful Martial Dao pressure.
This power was terrifying, even causing Huo Mingxian's expression to change.
Although she was only at the seventh level of the Cloud Sea Realm, she had forged the Ninefold Sea of Clouds and was one of the strongest below Nine Heavens martial artists!
Yet Chu Nan's aura now even made her feel wary, and Huo Mingxian's expression became serious as she finally gritted out, "I underestimated you!"
She didn't know what Chu Nan had, but her cautious nature prevented her from gambling.
Zhi Tianping's expression remained unchanged; he knew before leaving the Zhi Family Secret Realm that there was a hidden protector by Chu Nan's side all along.
"Huo Mingxian, I came with sincerity."
"You and my parents have past ties, I hope you won't destroy this friendship."
Chu Nan's tone was icy, containing murderous intent, threatening Huo Mingxian.
If an outsider saw this scene, they'd be utterly shocked that Chu Nan dared to threaten the rising Huo Mingxian, it was simply unbelievable.
But more astonishingly, although Huo Mingxian's face showed frost, she eventually gave a slight smile and said, "The previous words were just a joke. How could I stop you from reuniting with Huo Nianfang?"
"After all, when you were born in the Cyan Demon Mountain Range, I even held you."
Chu Nan remained silent; perhaps Huo Mingxian's words were true, but he didn't need to care at this moment.
"I'll take you to see Huo Nianfang. Since returning from the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, she has been in closed-door cultivation."
"If she sees you've come, she'll surely be very happy."
As Huo Mingxian spoke, she gestured for Chu Nan to enter the Immortal Pavilion, appearing extremely friendly.
Zhi Tianping frowned and whispered, "Chu Nan, perhaps we should leave for now; this place is a dragon's pool and tiger's den, watch out for traps."
His concern was reasonable, but Chu Nan shook his head upon hearing it.
"How could I not know her malicious intent, but things have come to this, I must believe her temporarily to reunite with my sister."
"Who knows if she'll prepare even more dreadful traps next time."
Zhi Tianping secretly sighed. Huo Mingxian's was an open conspiracy, attacking what must be defended.
For Chu Nan, who had never experienced familial warmth from an early age, Huo Nianfang was undoubtedly the most important person.
Even if it's a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, he would forge ahead!
Huo Mingxian then spoke in a kind tone, "Don't think too badly of me; I really want to take Chu Nan to see Huo Nianfang."
Chu Nan and Zhi Tianping remained silent, quietly following behind Huo Mingxian.
Soon, after several twists and turns in the Immortal Pavilion, Huo Mingxian led Chu Nan to a colossal stone door.
This stone door was pure white, with hideous beast patterns carved on its surface.
The scenery inside twisted endlessly, revealing nothing but dazzling light, obscuring what lay beyond the door.
"Chu Nan, look quickly, Huo Nianfang is cultivating in this secret realm. As long as you enter, you'll see her," Huo Mingxian pointed at the stone door, speaking with an indisputable tone.
Zhi Tianping tugged on Chu Nan's sleeve, then said, "This thing is clearly a trap, don't go in."
Chu Nan stared at the stone door, a mistiness flickered in his eyes.
Ultimately, he said, "I indeed felt Huo Nianfang's presence inside; I must go this time. Wait here, I'll be right back!"
With that, under everyone's gaze, Chu Nan stepped into the stone door, his body vanishing in the blink of an eye as if he had never existed.
Zhi Tianping was utterly anxious, just about to chase when he discovered that the secret realm's portal had already closed, seemingly specially welcoming Chu Nan inside.
Huo Mingxian continued with her cynical remark, "Never mind, we should just wait here. I'm sure we'll soon have results."
With that, she flicked her hand, and the previously twisting stone door became a vast mirror, revealing Chu Nan's every move...
