Chapter 145 - The Safety of His Family
Why did they invite him?
Although Chu Nan had really stolen the limelight in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition and became a famous person in the federation, he had been silent for more than three months without any news. Most of the citizens should have forgotten about him, so how could he still be famous?
It was obvious from how only Dunleavy had recognized him on the way home.
If the McDao Group was only inviting Chu Nan because of his pitiful reputation, it would be a little surprising. It did not match the style of a large company.
After thinking for a moment, Chu Nan casually threw the invitation aside.
If not for his parents, he definitely would not have accepted this invitation.
Now, he had to use all his time to increase his strength, so how could he have the time to participate in any banquet?
What happened last night made Chu Nan deeply feel how weak he was again.
If he was a little stronger, how could he have defeated that transformed man in such a dangerous manner that Chu Xiaoxi was frightened for the entire night? He even nearly encountered great danger himself.
If he could become extremely powerful, even powerful enough to become a Star-Grade Martial Artist, who would dare to kidnap his sister?
When he thought of Chu Xiaoxi, Chu Nan turned around and looked into the room.
At this moment, Chu Xiaoxi was sleeping soundly on the sofa in the living room. She was snoring lightly, and it could be seen that she was exhausted.
The experience last night had undoubtedly caused an extremely great psychological pressure on a young girl who was only 16 years old. Coupled with the fact that it was impossible to sleep well on the hard ground of the warehouse last night, she could finally relax after returning home with great difficulty. Naturally, she slept extremely soundly.
“I only hope that it doesn’t leave a psychological scar on her.”
A disgusting and terrifying appearance of the transformed man’s entire body flashed through his mind. Chu Nan touched his pocket and took out the personal terminal he had taken from the transformed man’s wrist.
After observing for a while, Chu Nan confirmed that it was impossible for him to open this personal terminal that was already tied to the transformed man. He opened his personal terminal and chose to send a communication request to Dong Fang.

After a while, the communication request was picked up. Dong Fang’s unique slightly hoarse voice immediately sounded on the virtual screen.
“Heh, Chu Nan, you’ve been home for a day and only thought of sending me a message. Aren’t you too mean?”
Looking at the familiar chubby face on the virtual screen, Chu Nan smiled and shook his head.

“No, I just got home at noon. I just finished lunch.”
“You only arrived at noon? That’s not right. Shouldn’t you have arrived yesterday?” Dong Fang was a little strange.
“Something happened and I was delayed. Dong Fang, I remember you telling me before that there’s a way to crack the personal terminal?”
Dong Fang was stunned and frowned slightly. He stared at Chu Nan for a while and said in a deep voice, “Something is wrong. Chu Nan, tell me, what happened to you yesterday?”
“Ha, I really can’t hide from you, kid.”
Chu Nan smiled and turned around to confirm that his parents were already working in the field and not in the house. He then roughly explained what had happened last night.
After hearing this, Dong Fang’s expression became unprecedentedly gloomy.
“In other words, you suspect that there’s actually someone behind those two guys?”
“I’m not sure. However, there must be something wrong for them to know our whereabouts so clearly.”
Dong Fang was silent for a moment before nodding, “I agree with your judgment. Alright, send me that guy’s personal terminal and some things that can show his genetic characteristics. I’ll find a way to resolve it.”
“I pulled out a few strands of his hair. That should be enough.”
Dong Fang grinned, “You’re indeed smart. That’s right, having hair is enough. However, Chu Nan… have you thought of a problem?”
The expression on Dong Fang’s face suddenly became serious.
“What problem?”
“Since these two guys are here for that ‘Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique’, there’s a high possibility that more people will come looking for you in the future. Have you thought of what to do?”
Chu Nan fell silent and frowned.
Before yesterday, he had indeed not considered this problem.
However, after what happened last night, he understood that this was an unavoidable problem.
A man’s wealth was his own ruin.
A B-rank cultivation method, even if it was only a B-rank cultivation method that was not especially outstanding, would be an extremely great temptation to many martial artists.
Now, everyone knew that he had obtained a B-rank cultivation method from Mu Yutong as a reward. Then, like the two fellows yesterday, there would definitely be many people who wanted to obtain this B-rank cultivation method from him.
Chu Nan turned around and looked at Chu Xiaoxi who was sleeping soundly on the sofa. He said in a deep voice, “I’ll think about it.”
“No, this is not a problem that can be solved by you alone.” Dong Fang shook his head and pondered for a moment. His finger moved and Chu Nan’s personal terminal received a message, “I’ll give you a person’s contact number. I’ll get him to contact you in a while and help you think of a way to resolve this problem.”
Chu Nan was stunned, “I don’t have to…”
“What do you mean you don’t have to?!” Dong Fang frowned and said sternly, “Could it be that you want your Xiaoxi to be kidnapped again? Aren’t you worried that someone will use your parents to threaten
you?”
Chu Nan was immediately speechless and could only nod silently.
Dong Fang spoke a few more words before hanging up.
Chu Nan blankly looked at the virtual screen that had turned black for a while. He took a deep breath and shook his head to regain his calm.
Dong Fang was right. Since those two fellows appeared yesterday, no one could guarantee that similar situations would not happen in the future.
In order to obtain a B-rank cultivation method, there were definitely many fellows who were willing to take the risk.
Before he could think of any better solution, it was not shameful to accept Dong Fang’s help.
Of course, the best solution was to become stronger.
Chu Nan slowly closed his eyes and an Internal Breath flowed out from his dantian to maintain the high-frequency vibration state. Soon, it circulated in the newly opened meridians and improved them again.
From the current situation, he was confident that he could completely recover these meridians in less than a week.
This recovery speed was already much faster than when he was previously injured.
However, Chu Nan was still very dissatisfied.
After his meridians recovered, because his meridians had been damaged and repaired, the toughness would definitely increase, and it would simplify his strength.
However, this increase was far from enough. He needed to increase his strength faster and stronger.
After controlling this trace of Internal Breath to return to his dantian, Chu Nan opened his eyes and reached into his bosom. He took out a thin book covered in blood.
This thin book was the “Purple Cloud Eight Desolates Body Tempering Technique” that he had found on the transformed man.
“If they know that I have an even stronger A-rank Internal Breath cultivation method now, I’m afraid more people will be jealous, right?”
Chu Nan flipped open the book page by page and carefully read it.
With the powerful data ability that was almost equivalent to an A.I., Chu Nan firmly memorized all the contents of this book. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he pinched the book and his Internal Breath surged out.
Bang!
The book was instantly shattered into pieces by the high-frequency vibration of Internal Breath. It fell into the weeds on the ground outside the house and disappeared.
