Fast, it was too fast. Everyone could only see a ray of light rushing past, leaving a mark in the sea of musical notes.
Clang!
The originally rapid music came to an abrupt stop, and a sonorous sound rang out. Wu Ningzhu turned pale with fright. She didn't need to lower her head to know that her string had broken.
Swoosh!
In the next moment, Wu Ningzhu felt a cold light flash past her face. The cold light was extremely sharp, and she couldn't avoid it. It was only at this moment that Wu Ningzhu truly saw how terrifying Jiang Chen was. It turned out that she wasn't on the same level as him at all. She was sure that if he wanted to, he could cut off her head with this sword.
However, when the cold light disappeared, the figure in front of her also disappeared. In the next moment, all the musical notes disappeared. Jiang Chen returned to his original position with the longsword in his hand. The whole process was completed in an instant. It was too fast. Jiang Chen stood at the place where he had attacked, as if he hadn't left at all.
However, on the opposite side, Wu Ningzhu's zither had a string broken in the middle. The string was made of the strongest material and was very difficult to break. However, it was easily broken into two by Jiang Chen, and this was nothing.
The veil on Wu Ningzhu's face seemed to be blown by the wind. It slowly slid down, and a pair of exquisite and impeccable beauty was completely revealed to the world.
"Ah!"
Wu Ningzhu exclaimed. Only then did she recall the cold light that had appeared on her face. It turned out that the cold light had cut off her veil, but it hadn't hurt her skin. Such swordsmanship required superb skills.
However, at this moment, Wu Ningzhu wasn't in the mood to worship that sword. All her thoughts were on her veil.
"He actually removed my veil. A man actually removed my veil, Wu Ningzhu's."
Wu Ningzhu stood rooted to the ground, muttering to herself as if she had received a great shock.
At this moment, the entire Nangong Family was strangely silent. Everyone's eyes were wide open as they stared at the beautiful face. It was definitely a face so beautiful that it could take one's breath away, just like a painting.
She had bright eyes and white teeth. Her lips were red even though they weren't lipstick. Her fair complexion was as lustrous as pearls and jade. Such a woman's lethality was too strong.
"So beautiful, as expected of the number one beauty of the Southern Continent."
"She's too beautiful. There's actually such a stunning woman in this world. It's worth it to be able to see her face once."
"It is said that no man has ever removed Wu Ningzhu's veil. Today, it has been removed by this young man in white. I wonder what will happen next."
…
Some people began to discuss in low voices, while others continued to stare at Wu Ningzhu in a daze.
Even Jiang Chen couldn't help but praise her from the bottom of his heart. Any man who could obtain a woman like her would be the greatest success and pride of his life.
Wu Ningzhu's expression kept changing. It was obvious that Jiang Chen's removal of her veil had a great impact on her. After a long time, Wu Ningzhu finally reacted. She raised her eyes and stared at Jiang Chen without blinking. Her eyes contained many different meanings and were extremely complicated.
"You are the first man to remove my veil."
Wu Ningzhu said calmly.
"Just treat it as a reward for my victory. Lady Wu, you are indeed an outstanding beauty. Even I can't help but be moved by your beauty."
Jiang Chen said.
"Are, are you moved?"
Wu Ningzhu hurriedly said, a hint of desire could be seen in her eyes.
Eh …
Jiang Chen was startled by Wu Ningzhu's words, and his brain instantly short-circuited. What did this girl mean by asking such a question? Suddenly, Jiang Chen regretted unveiling her veil. He already had Yan Chen Yu, and when it came to love, he was an idiot. He didn't have any experience with women.
Furthermore, Jiang Chen had only come to the Southern Continent to help the Nangong Family. He had never thought that he would have any interaction with anyone here. Although Wu Ningzhu was extremely beautiful, Jiang Chen was not a lecherous person. Everyone had a desire for beauty. When Jiang Chen removed Wu Ningzhu's veil, he was merely curious. He had no interest in Wu Ningzhu at all.
Rumble …
Just when Wu Ningzhu was about to say something, a sudden change occurred. An earth-shattering explosion suddenly rang out from the deepest part of the Nangong Family. It was an extremely violent movement. Over there, an ancient building was smashed into pieces, sending debris flying everywhere.
Nangong Yunfan's expression changed dramatically. He knew that place very well; it was the place where the Nangong Family's treasure was kept.
"What's going on?"
Nangong Yunfan was shocked. That treasure was protected by the Profound Sun Formation, which made it extremely difficult for anyone to attack it, let alone exploding on its own. This was the first time something like this had happened in the Nangong Family's history.
The expressions of everyone from the Nangong Family changed, especially those who knew about the treasure. Right at this moment, Jiang Chen was even more shocked than the people from the Nangong Family.
The Heavenly Saint Sword in Jiang Chen's hand began to vibrate violently, producing an ear-piercing sword cry. At the same time, Jiang Chen sensed a very familiar aura. It was the aura of the Heavenly Saint Sword, a resonance between the sword and the man.
"There's a third broken part of the Heavenly Saint Sword here!"
Jiang Chen almost cried out in shock.
Swoosh!
Right at this moment, a thunderous sword cry suddenly sounded out from within the Nangong Family. Following that, everyone saw a tens of meters long broken golden sword shoot up into the sky. The broken sword was extremely dazzling, and it looked extremely excited, as if it was a peerless treasure that had been suppressed for a very long time had finally found its master.
Swoosh!
The Heavenly Saint Sword in Jiang Chen's hand also let out a sharp whistle, which was exactly the same as the broken sword's whistle. In the next moment, the tens of meters long broken sword suddenly shrunk down to only one meter long. With a swoosh, it flew next to Jiang Chen and started to circle around Jiang Chen. It seemed like it was very intimate with him.
"Haha …"
Jiang Chen burst into laughter. With a thought, the broken sword stopped moving and landed on his palm. At this moment, Jiang Chen's heart was filled with excitement. He would never have thought that he would have such a great harvest on this trip to the Southern Continent. He had actually found the third broken part of the Heavenly Saint Sword.
What surprised Jiang Chen even more was that the treasure of the Nangong Family was actually his broken sword. In the past, Jiang Chen had used the Nine Solar Energies to refine the Heavenly Saint Sword, and this broken sword in front of him was the part that he had refined. With the help of the Mystical Sun Formation, it wasn't strange that it could produce Nine Solar Holy Water.
This harvest was truly great. The Heavenly Saint Sword had a total of seven broken parts, and Jiang Chen had to find them one by one. This trip to the Southern Continent was really a stroke of luck.
"What's that? What a mystical broken sword! "
"I don't know, but it's definitely a good treasure. This broken sword came from the Nangong Family, so it should belong to the family. How did it end up in Jiang Chen's hands?"
… …..
Many people were shocked, even Wu Ningzhu's gaze fell onto Jiang Chen's hand. With her wisdom, she could already guess that this broken sword was the treasure of the Nangong Family, and it was also one of the reasons why she came here to help Nangong Yunzheng.
"Dad, this!"
Nangong Wentian was shocked as well. Even he didn't expect this to happen. Obviously, the broken sword wasn't snatched by Jiang Chen, it had jumped out of nowhere and landed in Jiang Chen's hand.
"That's the treasure left behind by the old man, it's the foundation of our Nangong Family! We can't let it fall into someone else's hand!"
Tu Yi was extremely excited.
On the other hand, Nangong Yunfan had a calm expression on his face. He stared at Jiang Chen without blinking his eyes.
"I remember now! Dad, when I first came to the Island of Ice, Little Chenzi found a broken sword like this, it's exactly the same as our Nangong Family's. The broken sword came to Jiang Chen on its own, as if it had always belonged to him."
Nangong Wentian suddenly recalled the scene on the Island of Ice, and he finally understood why the broken sword jumped out of nowhere.
"Presumptuous! Put down the broken sword!"
Right at this moment, Nangong Yunzheng shouted at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen glanced at Nangong Yunzheng with disdain. The Heavenly Saint Sword was originally his, and now that it was in his hands, not even the God of Heaven would be able to take it away.
"So, the reason you came to our Nangong Family is for our family's treasure. Let me tell you, this treasure is the foundation of our Nangong Family, don't even think about taking it away!"
Nangong Yunzheng said with a stern expression.
"What if I insist on taking it away? Can you stop me? "
Jiang Chen said in an indifferent tone, but his eyes were extremely sharp.
Nangong Yunzheng's body trembled, and he couldn't help but gasp. Only now did he realize how terrifying this young man in front of him was. With his current cultivation, there was no way he could stop him. If this young man really wanted to leave, even if everyone in the Nangong Family joined forces, they still wouldn't be able to stop him.
"Little brother Jiang Chen, please, for Wentian's sake, leave the treasure here."
Tu Yi said.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but furrow his brows. There was no way he would leave the Heavenly Saint Sword, but Nangong Wentian was his brother. If he took the treasure away just like that, how was he going to explain it to Nangong Wentian?
"No need."
Right at this moment, Nangong Yunfan spoke, and everyone's gaze fell onto him.
"Yunfan, what are you talking about?"
Nangong Yunzheng looked at Nangong Yunfan.
"When the old master passed away, he left behind his last words. He said that this treasure has its own intelligence, and sooner or later, it will find its own master. If one day, it finds a fated man who can move this broken sword, no one from the Nangong family is allowed to stop him. Because of this treasure, the Nangong family has enjoyed hundreds of years of benefits, and this is a gift from the Heavens. Everyone here has seen what happened today. It wasn't nephew Jiang Chen who tried to steal our treasure, it was the broken sword that jumped out and looked for nephew Jiang Chen. This has never happened before. Therefore, nephew Jiang Chen is the fated man mentioned by the old master. Taking this broken sword away from us today can be considered a great deed for the Nangong family."
