But no one expected that his real reason was a family-inherited 'madness syndrome'.
After hearing what Su Chen said next, everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak.
Yan Ying, once the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, turned out to be a woman who admired strong men. She abandoned Nie Renwang and Nie Feng because she was tired of the mundane life and joined Xiong Ba.
And then Xiong Ba took Nie Feng as his disciple, a plot twist that truly surprised everyone.
In front of the railing on the fourteenth floor.
Nie Feng was so shocked by these words that he was speechless.
He simply couldn't believe that his gentle mother, whom he remembered, had left them for this very reason and gone to join Xiong Ba.
Chapter 78 Obsessed
But at this moment, he had no time to question Xiong Ba and asked urgently, "May I ask, Immortal Tianji, since my father and mother are not dead, where are they now?"
Su Chen took a sip of tea, and after his throat felt a little better, he slowly said:
"Back when Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai fought their final battle, both of them had already reached the realm of divine travel."
"Although they were swept off the cliff by the flood, with their cultivation level, they would not be injured at all."
"The real surprise wasn't from the flood, but from a divine beast that emerged from it—the Fire Qilin!"
"As I've said before, mythical beasts do exist in the world."
"And hidden in Lingyun Cave is a fire unicorn, with a violent temper and extremely powerful strength."
"Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai were forced to hide in Lingyun Cave by the Fire Qilin, and they went deep into the second level."
"Because the paths inside Lingyun Cave are intricate and complex, it's easy to get lost, and you're also likely to encounter a fire qilin."
"The two tried to get out several times but failed, and were trapped inside for a full twenty years."
As for Yan Ying.
"She herself had no martial arts skills, and the reason she survived jumping off the cliff was mainly because she was saved by someone."
"That person is the Po Jun I mentioned before."
"At that time, Po Jun was defeated by Wuming and was extremely depressed. If he hadn't met Yan Ying, he might have already given up on life."
"During their time together, Yan Ying discovered that Po Jun was even stronger than Nie Renwang, and thus developed feelings of love for him."
Later, Po Jun decided to go to Japan to find the legendary martial art "Sha Po Lang", and Yan Ying followed him without hesitation.
They traveled all the way to the Wushen Palace, where they paid their respects to the Palace Master, Jue Wushen, hoping to obtain the secret manual of "Sha Po Lang".
Jue Wushen had been defeated by Wuming before and had always been afraid of Wuming. However, he was actually very happy to hear Po Jun's request.
But he did not agree immediately; instead, he put forward two conditions.
The first condition is that if Po Jun defeats Wu Ming, he must hand over the secret manual of "Ten Thousand Swords Return to One" to him.
The second condition is—Yan Ying.
Yan Ying was so beautiful that Jue Wushen was instantly smitten upon seeing her.
Po Jun was very reluctant, but for the sake of the bigger picture, he finally nodded and even went to persuade Yan Ying himself.
Yan Ying was initially extremely unwilling, but later discovered that Jue Wushen's abilities far surpassed those of Po Jun and Nie Renwang. Furthermore, Jue Wushen's Palace was a powerful and influential force in Dongying, so she gradually accepted him. Later, she and Jue Wushen had a son, named Jue Tian.
This is where your parents are: one in the Lingyun Cave of the Han Dynasty, and the other in the Wushen Jue Palace of Japan.
The moment the words were spoken, the hall erupted in chaos.
After leaving Nie Renwang, Yan Ying followed Xiong Ba, then left Xiong Ba again to follow Po Jun, and was ultimately given to Jue Wushen by Po Jun? This news devastated all the martial arts figures of the Han Dynasty who had once secretly admired Yan Ying. Although they knew that Yan Ying always liked strong people, they never expected her to go to such lengths, regardless of whether the other party was righteous or evil, as long as they were strong enough, she was willing to follow them.
This kind of personality is simply unacceptable to those who regard her as a goddess.
What's most shocking is the secret of the Fire Qilin that Su Chen revealed: there really is such a living divine beast in the martial arts world of the Han Dynasty.
This news was absolutely shocking. Immediately, the hall was abuzz with discussion:
"I knew it! No wonder Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai died falling off the cliff. It turns out they encountered the Fire Qilin."
"Terrifying! There are actually living mythical beasts in the martial arts world of the Han Dynasty? That's unbelievable!"
"I had heard rumors about the fire qilin eating people before, but I thought it was just hearsay. Now it seems to be true."
"What? Yan Ying followed Xiong Ba and then Po Jun, and even had a child with Jue Wushen. She's my dream girl."
"My perfect image of Yan Ying has collapsed. I was fascinated by her the moment I saw her. Looking back now, I was so naive."
"Nie Renwang, Xiong Ba, Po Jun, Jue Wushen, Yan Ying really likes strong people. All the men she's been with are top experts."
"I feel so sorry for Nie Renwang. How heartbroken he would be if he knew about this?"
"What else could it be? Of course, he forgave her."
"Impossible! If I were Nie Renwang, I absolutely could not tolerate this."
Standing before the railing on the fourteenth floor, Nie Feng, his eyes bloodshot, roared, "Po Jun, you're asking for death!"
Of all the things Su Chen said, what he found most unacceptable was that Po Jun had given his mother away to Jue Wushen like an object.
This was an utter disgrace, and he wished he could kill Po Jun with a single stroke right then and there.
hatred!hatred!hatred!
As Nie Feng's eyes grew increasingly red, the mad blood within him erupted completely, unleashing a destructive power.
"Obsessed?"
The martial arts practitioners in the hall were all astonished and at a loss for what to do.
At the critical moment, Su Chen spoke calmly from the white jade platform. His voice was like heavenly music, striking Nie Feng's ears and instantly bringing him back to his senses.
Bu Jingyun quickly stepped forward and said, "Junior Brother Feng, your madness just now flared up. If it weren't for the timely intervention of the Heavenly Mystery Immortal, you would probably have suffered a qi deviation."
Upon hearing this, Nie Feng broke out in a cold sweat and immediately knelt down to express his gratitude: "Thank you so much, Immortal Tianji, for saving my life."
On the white jade platform, Su Chen gently shook his head, looking at Nie Feng whose breathing was disordered, and sighed softly:
"Actually, the Nie family's madness is not congenital."
"Its origins are closely related to the fire qilin."
"Four hundred years ago, a peerless swordsman emerged in the martial world of the Han Dynasty. With the cultivation of a terrestrial immortal at the peak, he swept across the world and no one could rival him."
"This man is named Nie Ying, and he is the ancestor of the Nie family."
"The Nie family's 'Six Secrets of Frost' and the divine weapon Snow Drinking Blade were both created by him."
"At that time, a great flood also occurred. The Fire Qilin left Lingyun Cave and ran rampant in the martial world, turning everything in its path into a sea of fire."
"In order to save the common people, Nie Ying resolutely challenged the Fire Qilin."
"Even though he had reached the peak of the land immortal realm, he was still no match for the divine beast fire qilin and was severely injured and unable to get up."
"Fortunately, his Snow Drinking Blade was extremely sharp, and it cut through the Fire Qilin's scales, forcing it back."
"But the fire qilin's blood splattered out, and a few drops were swallowed by Nie Ying."
"As I said before, the essence of divine beasts lies in their bloodline, so the blood of divine beasts contains infinite power."
"If it were anyone else, they would be burned to ashes immediately after drinking the blood of the fire qilin."
"But Nie Ying was exceptionally talented and managed to withstand it, even refining the blood and breaking through to the Land Celestial Realm in one fell swoop."
"This is the wonder of the Fire Kirin's blood."
"Phoenix blood can prolong life and enhance recovery."
"The blood of the Fire Qilin can enhance cultivation and increase attack power."
"The blood of any divine beast will carry a malevolent aura, which must be completely neutralized to prevent any potential problems."
“Nie Ying was unaware of this, which resulted in a chronic illness in her body. Once she gets emotional, she becomes extremely agitated.”
"This hidden danger has been passed down from generation to generation, and the Nie family calls it 'mad blood disease'."
"The so-called mad blood is actually the blood of the fire unicorn."
"Therefore, when members of the Nie family fall ill, their strength will suddenly increase dramatically."
The Dengtian Pavilion erupted in chaos once again.
People in the martial arts world all know that the Nie family is a family of swordsmen with a long history.
But they never dreamed that the Nie family's ancestor had actually produced a swordsman at the Land Celestial Realm.
Even throughout the thousand-year history of the Han Dynasty, such figures are few and far between.
Upon hearing the rest, everyone was even more astonished.
It turns out that Nie Ying, the ancestor of the Nie family, once fought a great battle with the Fire Qilin. Although he didn't win, he forced the Fire Qilin to retreat with his Snow Drinking Blade. That was a divine beast! The fact that Nie Ying could force it to retreat shows that his strength was extraordinary.
What was most surprising was Su Chen's subsequent analysis.
Nie Ying accidentally swallowed a few drops of the fire qilin's blood, and thus leaped directly from the peak of the terrestrial immortal realm to the terrestrial celestial realm.
Chapter 79 Fire Unicorn
That's a celestial being on land!
Apart from a very few powerful individuals who have reached the Celestial Longevity Realm, they are definitely top-tier martial arts masters of this era.
Even geniuses like A Qing, Wuming, Mu Yingxiong, and Li Chungang are only at the terrestrial celestial realm.
Therefore, it can be seen that the step from the peak of the terrestrial immortal to the terrestrial celestial being is not actually difficult.
Countless unparalleled experts in the world are stuck at this step and can never break through it in their entire lives.
Nie Ying, however, easily overcame this hurdle with just a few drops of the Fire Qilin's blood.
At this moment, the martial arts masters in each private room were extremely excited.
While the longevity granted by phoenix blood is certainly desirable, who among the martial arts world can resist the allure of fire unicorn blood to enhance their strength?
If a few drops of blood can help a peak-level terrestrial immortal advance further, how amazing would the effect be if given to a low-level martial artist?
Thinking of this, everyone was excited and started discussing it animatedly:
