Chen Nan stood alone at the helm of the warship, hands folded behind his back.
He looked at the shattered mountains and rivers below; in just half a year, everything had completely changed, and he suddenly felt so lonely, everything seed so unfamiliar.
He recalled the past when the country was secure and the people at peace. His lover was by his side, and life was so carefree.
Now, in just a few months, everything had disappeared.
Chen Nan took a deep breath, ready to accelerate back to Huaguo Mountain, but just at this mont, he happened to pass through the Su and Hang area and saw two familiar figures drinking at the West Lake in the pavilion that was half shattered.
The lecherous Poison Wolf and Zhao Han!
These two had t at Chen Nan and Yun Fei’s wedding. Now seeing them drinking together, Chen Nan wasn’t surprised.
During these six months, he had encountered Zhao Han and Poison Wolf several tis.
However, Chen Nan was slightly puzzled; every ti he t Zhao Han, Tao Zui was never around. Either he was off hunting enemies or attending to other matters.
In any case, he had never seen these two identical-looking guys together.
Chen Nan directed the warship to fly over: "As smoke rises all around the outside, you all seem quite interested, still sitting here drinking."
Poison Wolf laughed heartily, grabbed a wine jar and threw it over, saying: "Stop pretending, to be honest, your ship is really nice, when can you lend it to for a spin? This thing is the ultimate tool for picking up girls!"
Chen Nan took the wine jar and drank a few mouthfuls: "At such a ti, I’m asking if there’s anything else in your mind other than picking up girls?"
"I don’t care what ti it is, as long as I’m alive, girls are always to be picked up." Poison Wolf laughed heartily, saying: "Especially those girls from the Demon Clan, no matter how high their cultivation, if you win her heart, to kill her afterward is just a knife’s work."
Apparently, he’s now picking up not ordinary girls, but powerful female demons.
Seeing the strange look in Chen Nan and Zhao Han’s eyes, Poison Wolf puffed out his chest and said: "Don’t be unconvinced, I’ve already slain two female demons from the Immortal Domain Realm with this trick."
Zhao Han smiled bitterly and shook his head, clinking his wine jar with Chen Nan’s, saying: "Don’t talk nonsense with this guy, he’s just a stud."
Poison Wolf waved his hand: "What do you know, you old virgin? Sour grapes because you can’t have them."
"Damn..."
Zhao Han, influenced by bad company, started swearing.
After so banter among them, Poison Wolf looked at Chen Nan, speaking seriously: "Still haven’t found her?"
"No."
Chen Nan’s expression darkened, and he shook his head.
Beside him, Zhao Han also grew somber. Over the past six months, he had been searching for Su Yixuan but heard nothing from her.
Poison Wolf drank a mouthful of wine to the sky: "You n of deep affection have the most worries. Look at , today with this girl, tomorrow with another, never investing real emotions; I live so freely."
"That’s why people like you have no conscience."
Laughter echoed as a woman dressed in pink flew gracefully from afar, it turned out to be the Heavenly Maiden from the Western Magic Temple.
Seeing Hua Xian’er, Chen Nan involuntarily stood up, he hadn’t seen her for a while.
Poison Wolf shook his head and smiled: "What do you an by no conscience, I never dumped you!"
"That’s because I never gave you the chance."
Hua Xian’er landed on the ground, walked over smilingly and said: "People like you make good friends, but as lovers, whoever does is unlucky."
Poison Wolf shook his head and said: "It’s just that those won are too diocre, can’t capture my heart. If it were you, I might feel real emotions, shall we give it a try?"
"Stop slick-talking, people like you are the most unreliable." Hua Xian’er laughed and cursed.
Poison Wolf turned his gaze to Chen Nan.
He saw clearly, although Hua Xian’er was speaking to him, her attention remained on Chen Nan: "Then what about you and my brother?"
Hua Xian’er was taken aback, rolled her eyes and said: "Why are you so long-winded, go drink your wine."
"Haha, caught your thoughts, didn’t I?"
Poison Wolf laughed heartily, stood up, walked to Zhao Han’s side, grabbing a wine jar and said: "Co, let’s continue drinking, let them be close as a couple."
As a couple!
Upon hearing these three words, Hua Xian’er felt awkward but kept her face composed.
Chen Nan pointed at Poison Wolf and said: "This guy is so annoying, he should be burned to death."
Hua Xian’er ford a seal and chanted a spell; Fire Elent rapidly gathered, igniting instantly in Poison Wolf’s palm, startling him into throwing away his wine jar, cursing loudly.
Seeing him in such a sorry state, everyone couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
Old friends reunited, there were endless conversations, this drink lasted until the next morning.
As the sun rose in the east, everyone exchanged goodbyes and parted ways.
Chen Nan also steered the warship back to Huaguo Mountain, where everything remained unchanged, the outside war hadn’t affected this immortal mountain.
It’s not that Huaguo Mountain is particularly hidden, but rather there’s various formations laid on this mountain. If soone unfamiliar blunders in, they’d definitely get lost in the formations and couldn’t escape even to their death.
Chen Nan originally held a sliver of hope, but after searching the mountain, this hope was completely extinguished.
There wasn’t even half a human shadow on the mountain.
Moreover, in front of Shuilian Cave, the verdant grass showed evidently that no one had set foot here for a long ti.
Although the grass is beautiful, if soone lived here, the grass in front of the door would still be cleared away; all signs indicate that the mountain is deserted.
The mountain remains unchanged, yet things have altered beyond recognition.
Recalling everything from the past, events are vivid yet now the master battles across the Outer Domain without a trace, the junior sister’s life or death is unknown, leaving him alone, unsure of which path to take next.
Chen Nan suddenly felt that life is so bleak.
He’s fought so hard, trying to drive the demon clan away, for what?
"I fancy myself as a genius, yet couldn’t protect those close to ; what ability do I have to care about the lives and deaths of others? Chen Nan, oh Chen Nan, you’re the biggest joke."
Chen Nan self-mockingly said, got up and went into Shuilian Cave.
During these six months, he was like a walking corpse. Although he laughed and joked in front of friends, the pain behind the smile, no one could understand.
This half year seed longer than ten years, besides his eyes, his entire person looked much more weathered.
"Having lost those I needed to protect most in life, what does the survival of this mortal world matter to ?"
Chen Nan laughed in self-mockery.
He ford seals with both hands, laying a barrier at the entrance of Shuilian Cave, completely isolating from the outside.
He sat cross-legged on the spot, preparing to retreat into cultivation.
The Mysterious Skill he practiced now wasn’t the previous ntal thod but the Cultivation Technique passed down by Kuang Zhen Tian when he asked for a boat at the Kuang Clan. After six months of cultivation, he found this technique infinitely mysterious.
According to Kuang Zhen Tian at the ti, this wasn’t actually a martial art from the Kuang clan but originally belonged to Chen Nan himself (see Chapter 1365 for details).
Chen Nan never understood the aning of these words, nor did he know the na of this Cultivation Technique, he only knew one thing, it was indeed powerful!
