Nangong Shengzu
NanGong XiMeng looked at Xiao Fan's methods, too surprised to speak.
"Husband, how did you do that?"
"So strong!"
She held Xiao Fan's arm, her beautiful eyes shining with immense admiration and affection.
This is my NanGong XiMeng's man.
Low-key, yet his strength far surpasses his peers.
She felt so lucky to have met and fallen in love with Xiao Fan.
Her shining eyes and overflowing affection were very pleasing to Xiao Fan.
More, please! I love to hear it!
Xiao Fan humbly said, "It's all from my diligent Cultivation and hard work."
"If you want to learn, I can teach you."
NanGong XiMeng nodded like a pecking chick, kissed his cheek, and hugged him tightly, saying, "You said it, no backing out!"
"Of course, I will never go back on my word."
Shangguan Yanxi also walked over; she had a new understanding of her son-in-law.
He's too strong, isn't he?
"Um, Xiao Fan, were you tired just now?"
"Do you need to rest? Tell me if you have any requests, don't be shy."
"Just treat this as your own home."
As the saying goes, a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks, the more pleasing he becomes.
She was probably in this situation.
Xiao Fan smiled, "Mm, with Xi Meng by my side, I won't be tired."
Nangong Bo also walked over.
He admitted that his tone towards Xiao Fan that day was a bit disrespectful.
After seeing his strength today, he felt that his daughter had indeed found a good match.
When Xiao Fan saw him approach, his gaze was no longer hostile.
Instead, there was a sense of indebtedness.
Hmm, the father-in-law is sensible.
Nangong Bo smiled very amicably, "My son-in-law, if you don't go on stage, the reward will be given away."
Xiao Fan said, "I originally had no intention of standing out and competing. It was that guy who was too ignorant, treating this arena as his personal stage and deliberately disrupting order."
"I had no choice but to teach him a lesson."
"Who knew he was actually a Demonic Path scoundrel, and had a Devil Head father? There was nothing I could do but eliminate them both."
"I hope it didn't disturb father-in-law's enjoyment."
"As for the grand competition's reward, my Realm is too different from theirs. If I were to compete, it would be bullying children."
Xiao Fan said indifferently, "Let them fight for it."
Nangong Bo felt a bit emotional, realizing he had been blind and almost ruined his daughter's good marriage.
He smiled, "Then it shall be as my son-in-law says."
Xiao Fan said, "Father-in-law, wait a moment."
"I heard that Chen Ye was once hunted by the Nangong Family. At that time, he was still a child without Cultivation, a mere Mortal. How did he escape the pursuit?"
"One of us is a traitor."
Nangong Bo had naturally thought of this question; he had long been suspicious.
Within the Nangong Family, those who could hide from him were few.
And among those few, the only one with the motive to do so, due to blood relation with Chen Ye, was Nangong Hengwu!
Nangong Bo said, "But if he dared to do this, it means he left no traces."
"Hehe."
Xiao Fan called for Xiaofang and asked her to bring the Undying Fire Phoenix over.
Xiaofang obediently brought it and handed it to Xiao Fan.
"You seemed to have something unfinished earlier. Come, finish what you were saying."
Xiao Fan said to the Undying Fire Phoenix.
As soon as this was mentioned, the Undying Fire Phoenix became angry.
It said resentfully, "What else could it be? That young man was Cultivating in my Southern Domain Mountains, and without a word, he swallowed all the Fire Qi accumulated over hundreds of millions of years."
"My clansmen living in that mountain range saw their home destroyed and went to fight him. They were killed by him, leaving only a few children."
The Undying Fire Phoenix's hatred was almost tangible, and its eyes seemed to spew fire.
But soon, it became relieved.
"However, he is already dead, and my great revenge is avenged."
Nangong Bo said, "You mean, your clansmen in the Southern Fire Domain Mountains were killed by that Chen Ye?"
"Who else could it be? Otherwise, I wouldn't be so angry."
Nangong Bo saw the clue; Nangong Hengwu was so eager to attack it, he was hiding something!
"Everything makes sense now."
Nangong Bo said, "I'll leave for a moment."
He seized the opportunity; this time, he must suppress Nangong Hengwu's branch!
The grand competition continued, but no one else was eye-catching.
Even the person who ultimately received the reward showed no arrogance.
Because they knew there was someone standing above them, whom they could only look up to.
...
Above the vast starry sky, between the boundless Milky Way.
A black-clad youth with an evil smile unleashed Saintly Way killing moves without pause.
He lavishly released his power, making the Star River sparkle, flickering between bright and dim.
A casual strike would turn an unknown number of billions of Star Domains into dust.
The might of a Saint, destroying heaven and earth!
Facing him was an equally young man with an expressionless face.
He casually broke these killing moves, unable to comprehend the black-clad youth's actions.
"Yuansheng, are you just trying to waste my time by provoking me for no reason?"
"I think you're just wasting time. Get lost."
The one who spoke was the Nangong Family Saint Ancestor.
He wore a purple-gold robe, majestic and solemn, with wisps of Saintly Might drifting and swirling, making him impossible to look at directly.
He didn't want to waste any more time and planned to return.
However, Yuansheng stopped him.
Yuansheng, short for Primeval Saint Devil.
"Hehehehe, don't be so hasty."
"It's rare to come out; let's have a good fight before leaving."
Yuansheng was relentless, clinging tightly to the Nangong Family Saint Ancestor.
As old rivals, both knew it was impossible to kill the other unless the other side produced another Saint.
So they didn't pay much attention, just engaging in tentative skirmishes.
Nangong Holy Ancestor couldn't fathom his thoughts, only feeling that the other party's actions were somewhat abnormal.
"Drawing me out for no reason, he must have a motive."
"But he's not fighting to the death with me. Could his target be my Nangong Family?"
His gaze pierced through the boundless void, looking towards the Nangong Family.
But he found no abnormality. Could I be overthinking?
The reason Yuansheng was so happy was because among his descendants, a Clan Chief named Chen Ying, had comprehended the Prototype of the Saintly Way.
With a little more Cultivation, he would surely comprehend the complete Saintly Way.
There was a great chance for him to become a Saint in this grand era.
To allow the other party to Cultivate in peace, he decided to help him rescue his wife.
This led to Chen Ying's entry into the Nangong Family.
However, he suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.
A feeling of his Bloodline being severed surged within him.
He calculated briefly and found that Chen Ying's life force had been cut off.
"How is that possible!"
He knew Chen Ying's strength well; without a Saint appearing, he would never die.
Could it be that the Nangong Family has a second Saint?!
Losing a descendant was nothing; as a Saint, he had no shortage of descendants.
"No, there's a sudden change; I must hurry back."
Without another word, he immediately fled.
His speed was so fast that the Nangong Holy Ancestor was bewildered.
Is this guy making fun of me?
He no longer bothered and chose to return.
But as soon as he returned, he encountered Nangong Bo's accusation.
"Saint Ancestor, Nangong Bo has an important matter to report."
"I accuse the Nangong Hengwu lineage of favoritism and bending the law, showing mercy to the offspring of the Primeval Devil Head."
