Chen Nan collects Breakthrough Flowers from those willing to sacrifice their lives, then enters a Bronze Gate leading to the Heavenly Human Path. There, he encounters Lan Zhenyue, who reveals he has captured Feng Qingcheng and Xiao Jian. Lan Zhenyue leads Chen Nan to where Feng Qingcheng and Xiao Jian are imprisoned, their cultivation sealed.

Lan Zhenyue was cursed terribly, yet he remained unperturbed, still admiring Feng Qingcheng's furious demeanor with his lustful gaze.

"By the way, aren't you friends with them? But you're on the brink of death, wouldn't you let them see your true face?" he suddenly said.

Chen Nan thought for a moment, his body gradually returning to normal, and the layer of illusion covering him disappeared, revealing his original appearance.

Feng Qingcheng widened her eyes, looking utterly shocked: "You barbarian! You're actually so handsome, yet you transformed into a barbarian to deceive me! When I get out, I'll make sure you pay!"

Chen Nan sighed helplessly, this Feng Qingcheng was a bit too bold; even on the verge of death, her mouth was relentless.

"Tell me, what will make you let us go?"

Lan Zhenyue shook his head and chuckled: "I won't let you go, daring to destroy my clone means you're opposing me, and opposing me means death!"

"However, I can let you choose a more painless way to die, or you can choose to die painfully."

Chen Nan's expression darkened: "Tell me, what do you want?"

"Of course, Taiyin!"

Lan Zhenyue's eyes sparkled: "You were sent by that damned woman Ling Shuanghua, she has merged with Taiyin, wouldn't getting Taiyin be easy for her?"

"So, you give me all the Taiyin she gave you, and I can let you die quickly."

Feng Qingcheng: "Barbarian, don't listen to him. If you believe a Demon Clan member's promises, you might as well trust me with having your child!"

Lan Zhenyue stared intently into Chen Nan's eyes, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he grasped Chen Nan's neck, lifting him abruptly.

"Why are you laughing?!"

Yes, Chen Nan was laughing.

"I'm laughing because I finally know what you want." Though his neck was nearly crushed, he kept on smiling: "You can kill me, but I guarantee you won't get a drop of Taiyin!"

"You think I'm scared easily?" Lan Zhenyue's eyes showed bloodthirstiness; at this moment, he truly intended to kill Chen Nan!

But Chen Nan remained indifferent, chuckling: "Go on, kill me!"

Lan Zhenyue gradually increased his strength, but seeing the fearless expression on Chen Nan's face, he hesitated and eventually tossed Chen Nan aside.

"Even if I can't get Taiyin, I won't let you go. We've become enemies now, do you really think I'll let you off? Don't be so naive!"

Hearing his tone slightly relaxed, Chen Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At least for now, he's stabilized Lan Zhenyue temporarily.

"I can make a wager with you; if I win, you let one person go, if I lose, I will give you all the Taiyin." Chen Nan hurriedly proposed his plan.

Feng Qingcheng immediately continued her tirade.

"Barbarian, you moron! You're just beyond stupid; how could he possibly bet with you?"

Lan Zhenyue smiled and nodded: "Alright, it's decided then. What do you propose to wager?"

"I'll wager my life!" Chen Nan declared, his eyes carrying a fierceness that seemed not his own.

Lan Zhenyue dropped his smile. When a man wagers his life, you either refuse or take him seriously.

A person who doesn't even fear losing his life, who knows what he might do?

"How will we wager?"

"Simple! I'll take three of your moves; if I can withstand them, I win, if not, you win."

Feng Qingcheng immediately became irate: "Barbarian, are you crazy? How's this different from courting death? If you want to die, don't drag us down!"

Chen Nan turned a deaf ear and pressed Lan Zhenyue: "So, do you dare to bet?"

"Well, your courage is commendable, no wonder Ling Shuanghua has her eye on you, you pretty face. I'll wager with you then, see if you truly are invincible."

Lan Zhenyue laughed loudly twice; this situation, for him, was all favorable, Chen Nan was cornering himself.

Chen Nan retreated a few steps, took a deep breath: "Come on!"

Within the golden light shield, Feng Qingcheng and Xiao Jian both looked worried, watching tensely outside; if possible, they'd rather Chen Nan turn and flee now.

Instead of witnessing him gamble with his life before their eyes!

Lan Zhenyue sneered coldly, then abruptly composed his expression, sending out a strike, the dense demonic power surged out, transforming into a hundred-zhang wave, slamming harshly into Chen Nan.

Crash!

Chen Nan was flung several hundred meters away by the wave, his bones fractured, who knew how many.

Because the wave was imbued with the Water Law, every droplet was as heavy as a thousand jins, with a wave striking, it was unimaginably weighty!

Chen Nan lay on the ground, his breathing was torturous, but his powerful recovery power was rapidly mending his body, a tingly sensation came, his bones were regrowing.

"Chen Nan, are you done after just one hit? If you don't get up soon, you'll have lost this wager."

"What's the rush, mighty Nascent Soul Realm, can't even wait this little while? At least wait until I can stand up, right?" Chen Nan remained lying on the ground undeterred.

Lan Zhenyue sneered twice: "Fine, I'll wait for you then!"

After a long while, Chen Nan finally stood up shakily, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, taking steps forward.

Within the shielded area, Feng Qingcheng and Xiao Jian's faces changed dramatically.

Knowing it was an attack from a Third-Layer Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator, if it were other cultivators of the same level as Chen Nan, this strike would surely have been fatal!
