Peerless Dragon Sovereign-Chapter 557: Green-Skinned Fiend

"Rest assured, when has anything I said failed to come true."

"As long as you speak these words, not only will the Cyan Demon give up killing you, but will also treat you with great courtesy!"

Kui Guang told Chu Nan in an indisputable tone, encouraging him to ease his mind.

Chu Nan, filled with suspicion, couldn’t help but say, "Sword Venerable Master, I feel if I say it, the Cyan Demon might not let me die so easily..."

"If you die, this soul of mine would lose its dwelling place, what good would that do?" Kui Guang retorted, "You can rest assured, as soon as you utter this sentence, he’ll immediately be compliant!" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Meanwhile, Huo Mingxian impatiently urged, "Cyan Demon, hurry up and strike, don’t dawdle."

"After all, he’s your offspring, we can’t kill him rashly."

"His bloodline is too precious, let me devour him alive!"

The Cyan Demon’s tone was permeated with an astounding killing intent, and suddenly, the giant mouth on his chest surged with massive suction, swallowing everything around into its belly, extinguishing and dissipating.

Under this force, Chu Nan’s Battle Soul Banner, Blood Pattern Sword, Black and White Guiyuan Sword, even the True Martial Holy Hall and the Dragon Slaughter Tower became dim and uncontrollable.

The spiritual power within his body was completely sealed, the Zangba Evil Body disappeared, and the external seven layers of Sea of Clouds returned to his body.

At this moment, Chu Nan felt he had become a mortal without cultivation, about to be entirely devoured by the Cyan Demon, leaving no chances of survival.

In this moment of crisis, Chu Nan had no choice but to speak the sentence Kui Guang taught him.

He closed his eyes, resigned to fate and shouted, "Green-skinned wretch, have you forgotten your identity!"

Huo Mingxian thought she misheard when she replied sarcastically, "Chu Nan, you’re at the brink of death and still dare to insult the Cyan Demon, I suppose you want to die in a worse way!"

She thought Chu Nan’s insults toward the Cyan Demon were his reluctant defiance before death, turned into anger.

She presumed the Cyan Demon would retaliate against Chu Nan with even harsher means.

Unexpectedly for Huo Mingxian, the Cyan Demon, who was about to swallow Chu Nan, suddenly stopped in disbelief and asked, "What did you just say!"

Seeing the Cyan Demon halt, Chu Nan felt joyous, secretly admiring Kui Guang’s prowess, who could restrain the Cyan Demon’s killing intent with just a sentence.

Thus he spoke with even more confidence, "You infertile green-skinned wretch, do you want me to repeat my words?"

The Cyan Demon’s expression was uncertain, originally intending to fulfill the promise of killing Chu Nan, he now showed hesitation.

Huo Mingxian noticed the Cyan Demon’s state and was taken aback, with an ominous feeling arising in her: "Cyan Demon, what are you doing, I saved your life once."

"Back when you and the Sword Demon wreaked havoc in the lower realms, the Sword Demon was killed, it was me who pleaded on your behalf so you could survive, now I want you to kill Chu Nan immediately!"

Upon hearing Huo Mingxian’s words, killing intent reappeared in the Cyan Demon’s eyes.

Seeing this, Chu Nan hurriedly added, "Green-skinned wretch, could it be you’ve forgotten twenty years ago in Dian Province?"

Though he didn’t understand the meaning, since Kui Guang claimed it would work, Chu Nan naturally went along to save his life.

Yet hearing Chu Nan’s words, the Cyan Demon couldn’t help but tremble all over, he completely let go of his desire to kill and then said to Huo Mingxian, "Huo Mingxian, I can’t kill this person, you’ll have to find someone else."

Huo Mingxian was dumbstruck by these words, utterly incredulous and furious, asking, "Why? Why can’t you kill him, you promised me!"

Facing the Cyan Demon’s refusal, Huo Mingxian chose to be unreasonable, forcing the Cyan Demon to comply.

But the Cyan Demon responded with an extremely adamant tone, "This person, I don’t dare kill, find someone who dares."

"In the Celestial Crossing Realm, who is there that you don’t dare or can’t kill?" Huo Mingxian was puzzled, then continued, "Are you afraid of Chu Nan being Chu Fang’s child?"

"I can tell you clearly, Chu Fang has already perished alongside the Sword Demon, and Ye Jiao’e will never come back."

"Even if you kill Chu Nan, they won’t come back for revenge, you don’t need to fear them!"

The Cyan Demon suddenly showed a look of realization, for he had just learned about Chu Nan’s ancestry.

Thus his killing intent completely vanished, and he replied without hesitation, "If he’s Chu Fang’s offspring, then I surely can’t kill him."

"If the people of the Heavenly Balance Realm find out I killed the sole offspring of Chu Fang born in the Cyan Demon Mountain Range, they would never let me off."

"Huo Mingxian, you leave now, later I can still grant you one request, but if you continue to pester, don’t blame me for not remembering past favors, even though you saved me, there’s no oath binding us."

"Even if I kill you, there’s no one to punish me."

Faced with the Cyan Demon’s sudden change of attitude, Huo Mingxian found it incomprehensible, impossible to understand.

But at this point, she knew no amount of persuasion would have any effect.

"Cyan Demon, we’ll revisit our agreement later, I’m leaving now!" Huo Mingxian held Huo Jiantang, filled with unwillingness.

This time, to kill Chu Nan, she almost used all the power she could within the Huo family.

Yet it all ended in failure, even the royal family members died here, the loss was truly devastating.

Her heart was extremely unwilling, yet she was helpless.

Currently, Huo Mingxian was no match for Chu Nan, and the Cyan Demon refused to help, leaving was her only option.

"Chu Nan, remember this, our enmity won’t be resolved so easily."

"We’ll meet again, next time, you won’t be so lucky!" Huo Mingxian glared at Chu Nan with hatred, her face cold as she flew away.

Chu Nan wanted to chase and kill this woman to eliminate future threats, but with the Cyan Demon present, he dared not act rashly.

Even though the words Kui Guang taught him made the Cyan Demon abandon the idea of killing him, it couldn’t assure him that in his attempt to kill Huo Mingxian, the Cyan Demon wouldn’t intervene.

Huo Mingxian’s figure disappeared beyond the outskirts of the Cyan Demon Mountain Range, Chu Nan looked at the Cyan Demon and refrained from rash actions.

As long as this monster was around, Chu Nan couldn’t act recklessly.

"From now on, you are forbidden to step foot into the Cyan Demon Mountain Range!" The Cyan Demon gave Chu Nan a deep look, leaving this sentence before turning away.

Though the tone was full of threat, Chu Nan could feel the Cyan Demon’s eyes were filled with dread as it looked at him.

In truth, Chu Nan didn’t comprehend the significance of the words Kui Guang told him.

However, he already had many speculations in his heart.

Kui Guang was the senior disciple of Lu Yao from the Endless Sky Sword Sect, the instigator behind the destruction of the Sword Sect and the division of the two realms.

According to Huo Nianfang, the Cyan Demon, after the realms were divided, made the Celestial Crossing Realm his domain.

Thus it seems the Cyan Demon was an ancient powerhouse existing before the division of the realms, possibly someone from the same era as Kui Guang, perhaps even with some interactions.

And just now, the words might have revealed some personal grudges between Kui Guang and the Cyan Demon.

"The Cyan Demon might have guessed the identity of the Sword Venerable Master, fearing him thus abandoning the thought of killing me." Chu Nan concluded, erasing his doubts.

Seeing the Cyan Demon completely leave, he flew in the direction Lu Yao had been struck and followed...
