Dashing Student

The entire audience was silent; even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard.

Everyone looked at the young man in the center of the arena as if he were a monster, their eyes filled with shock and awe.

A few young women even unconsciously covered their mouths, afraid of making any inappropriate noises.

"Nine... nine Great Grandmasters... lost?" someone stammered, their voice so faint it was almost inaudible, yet piercing in the silent space!

Shen Qinglan's face was awash with tears, yet she beamed with a radiant smile.

The crystalline teardrops slid down her delicate cheeks, glistening like diamonds in the sun.

Beside her, her father had his mouth wide open, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a "smash," breaking into pieces. Scalding tea splashed onto his trousers, yet he seemed unaware.

Chen Nan slowly surveyed the surroundings, and wherever his gaze landed, everyone instinctively lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

Finally, his gaze fell upon Ye Jin, whose face was ashen.

This once all-powerful heir of the Ye Family now sat paralyzed on the ground; his expensive suit covered in dust, his meticulously styled hair in disarray.

"Is there anyone who still wants to stop me now?" Chen Nan's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

Ye Jin's legs gave out, and he directly knelt on the ground.

His proud family heritage, his greatest reliance, was so vulnerable in front of this young man!

His lips trembled, yet he couldn't utter a single sound.

This battle was destined to shake the entire Jianghu!

Everyone present knew they were witnessing the birth of a legend.

From today onwards, the martial arts world will be completely changed; a new era is about to begin.

Chen Nan took Shen Qinglan's hand and swaggered off into the distance. He wanted to ask that square-faced man about Nie Xiaoyu's whereabouts.

After all, this man was Nie Xiaoyu's uncle, and he was also the one who brought Nie Xiaoyu to the Capital City!

Yet...

Chen Nan was a man of dignity!

He had come to the Ye Family today to openly disrupt the wedding, confirming his relationship with Shen Qinglan, so how could he have the audacity to inquire about Nie Xiaoyu's whereabouts?

But as Chen Nan just stepped outside, a resonant voice called from behind: "Mr. Chen, please wait!"

Chen Nan turned back.

Upon seeing it was the square-faced man, he couldn't help but furrow his brows, clearly surprised that the other party would call out to him!

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Sui Bian! I am Xiaoyu's uncle!" The middle-aged man introduced himself, a faint smile gracing his face.

Chen Nan politely asked: "Where is Xiaoyu?"

Sui Bian sighed: "Xiaoyu has already left this world!"

"What?" Chen Nan's pupils constricted, his face changed dramatically, and a terrifying murderous aura erupted, giving Sui Bian and Shen Qinglan the illusion of being plunged into an ice cellar, chilling to the bone.

After all, Nie Xiaoyu was not only his high school classmate but also the white moonlight in his heart; she had once given him a sense of home!

Though Chen Nan had many female companions, none could replace Nie Xiaoyu's position in his heart!

"Please do not get angry yet; when I say she left this world, I do not mean she truly left!" Sui Bian sighed softly before saying: "Half a month ago, a mysterious person appeared in the Capital City, discovering that Xiaoyu possessed a rare Spirit Vein, and forcibly took her to the Kunlun Mountain Small World for cultivation!"

"It is said that the person hails from Yan State, one of the Nine Provinces in the Kunlun Mountain Small World, and is an elder of Yuantian Sect, one of the top three Immortal Gates in Yan State!"

He paused, then said: "From what I know, the nine Great Grandmasters teaming up to eliminate you was likely the Kunlun Mountain Small World cultivators' aim!"

"They do not permit the existence of cultivators in the secular world!"

Chen Nan's brows furrowed: "So, does this mean if I continue to stay in the secular world, Kunlun Mountain Small World will send strong cultivators to kill me?"

"Theoretically, yes." Sui Bian added: "I tell you these things firstly to let you understand the world's layout, and secondly, with the hope... you can enter the Kunlun Mountain Small World to find Xiaoyu!"

"She had endured endless grievances and hardships while wandering outside, and only when she met you did her life become less arduous; we truly do not wish for her to suffer any grievances!"

Upon hearing this, a wave of displeasure arose in Chen Nan's heart: "If that's the case, why did you forcibly take Xiaoyu away back then? Why didn't you say goodbye?"

Sui Bian smiled awkwardly: "We only learned from Xiaoyu afterward about her past and your care for her!"

Chen Nan forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart, trying to calm his emotions, then asked: "How much do you know about the Kunlun Mountain Small World?"

Nie Xiaoyu is inherently naive and kind, and the cultivation world is extremely brutal with its survival of the fittest, so she will undoubtedly face many troubles when entering the Kunlun Mountain Small World!

Whether for Nie Xiaoyu or from his own standpoint, he must enter the Kunlun Mountain Small World!

Sui Bian shook his head: "I only know that the entrance to the Kunlun Mountain Small World is in Death Valley, and it is a world where strength rules, inhabited mostly by powerful cultivators."

"Though it is a world of survival of the fittest, it also offers many opportunities!"

"I know what to do now!" Chen Nan said softly, then took Shen Qinglan's hand and disappeared from Sui Bian's sight!

Watching their departing figures, Sui Bian sighed quietly to himself, never anticipating how quickly Chen Nan had grown!

This young man, having no power or influence, has grown so fast in the secular world. Once he enters the Kunlun Mountain Small World, rich in spiritual energy and cultivation resources, his growth speed will be astonishing!

He might even reach the Golden Core Stage within a century!

Inside the Rolls-Royce Phantom.

"Darling, are you planning to go to the Kunlun Mountain Small World?" Shen Qinglan held Chen Nan's arm tightly, looking at him with concern, her beautiful eyes filled with reluctance.

Chen Nan solemnly nodded: "Xiaoyu, like you, is an important woman in my life. Now that she has been forcibly taken to the Kunlun Mountain Small World, I have to rescue her!"

Seeing Chen Nan's determined eyes, although Shen Qinglan felt reluctant, she softly said: "Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you in the secular world."

Chen Nan affectionately rubbed her head, then decisively took out his phone, searched for the city closest to Kunlun Mountain, and promptly booked a flight to Qinghai!

The matter of going to Kunlun Mountain should not be delayed; he must quickly head to Yuantian Sect.

As the sun set, Chen Nan arrived in Qinghai, then took a car to Golmud City, and after more than two hours of driving, a towering and majestic mountain came into view.

This is China's foremost sacred mountain, Kunlun Mountain!

Under the night sky, the youth, clad in a sky-blue Daoist robe, walked resolutely into it, heading towards Death Valley!
