Chapter 136 A Man’s Wealth Is His Own Ruin

26 minutes later, Chu Nan appeared at the entrance of the abandoned factory.

“Alright, turn to the right after entering the door and walk in. There’s a warehouse. You can see it when you come over.”

The burly man’s voice sounded in the personal terminal communication that had not been closed along the way.

On the way, Chu Nan had always maintained the recording of his personal terminal. However, the other party had closed the recording of Chu Xiaoxi’s personal terminal. Therefore, the other party could always see Chu Nan’s actions, but he did not know what the other party was doing and could only occasionally hear the other party’s orders.

He walked in and looked to the right. As expected, he saw a warehouse-like room in the distance, so he walked over without any hesitation.

He walked over and discovered that the warehouse door was actually closed.

“Push it away.”

Chu Nan raised his head to look at the sky and discovered that the sun was extremely tilted. The sunlight shone down and formed a very small angle with the ground.

He lowered his gaze and sized up the appearance of the warehouse. Then, he pushed open the door and saw Chu Xiaoxi sitting on the ground in the corner.

Beside her, the brawny man who had appeared in the communication was holding Chu Xiaoxi tightly with one arm, and his other hand was holding a small knife. The blade was placed on Chu Xiaoxi’s neck, preventing her from moving.

After seriously sizing her up, Chu Nan confirmed that Chu Xiaoxi’s clothes were intact. Apart from a few wounds on her legs, she did not seem to be injured. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and felt slightly relieved.

He pretended that he had just walked into the warehouse and was not used to the darkness inside. He took two steps in and happened to reach a patch of sunlight that shot in through a window diagonally above the warehouse. Then, his gaze swept past Chu Xiaoxi and the burly man beside her, but he turned around and finally landed on another man in the other corner.

“Tell me, what do you want to do?”

“Very good. Little Brother Chu Nan, you’re indeed not an ordinary person to be able to obtain the recognition of a Star-Grade Martial Artist. You’re very straightforward.” That man was much thinner and also wore a black hood. When he saw Chu Nan looking over, he stood up and clapped his hands twice, “To be honest, I don’t have any ill intentions towards your sister and you. The reason why I made this move was completely because I was forced to.”

“Cut the crap. Since you know me, you’re clearly targeting me. Kidnapping my sister is only because you want to obtain something from me or threaten me to do something. Tell me your goal directly. Don’t beat around the bush.”

The thin man seemed to be a little surprised. He paused for a moment before raising his voice, “In that case, I can only say it directly. You’re right. We kidnapped your sister for you, of course. As for why we threatened you… that’s not necessary. We only want to get something from you.”

“Oh? I don’t think I have anything worth fighting for. If it’s only for money, kidnapping those rich people is clearly more effective.”

“No, no, no. Little Brother Chu Nan, you’re wrong. Although you’re only an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist, there’s indeed something valuable on you.” The thin man waved his hand.

“What is it?” Chu Nan frowned and could not think of what was worth them snatching.

“You forgot?” The thin man raised his voice in an exaggerated manner and shook his head, “Alright, let me remind you. You obtained the runner-up of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition three and a half months ago. According to Supremacy Mu Yutong’s promise at that time, the runner-up will obtain a B-rank martial technique from him as an additional reward…”

“I see.”

Only then did Chu Nan understand.

It turned out that these two fellows were actually coming for the B-rank martial technique rewarded by Mu Yutong.

What was this? A man’s wealth was his own ruin?

The others probably felt that Chu Nan was extremely lucky to be able to obtain a B-rank martial technique given by Mu Yutong as a reward.

a

However, he did not expect that he would be harmed before he could enjoy the benefits of this B-rank martial technique.

“Of course, since Supremacy Mu Yutong praised and felt pity for you, maybe the reward he gave you is not only a B-rank martial technique. It might even be an A-rank martial technique,” the thin man continued, “In short… no matter what, Chu Nan, you have to obediently take out the martial technique that Mu Yutong rewarded you with today, otherwise… Hmm?”

The thin man tilted his head to the other side. The blade on the burly man’s neck loosened, and a red mark immediately appeared on her neck.

“Stop!” Chu Nan roared.

The burly man stopped and looked at Chu Nan.

“Heh, kid, hand over the martial technique quickly. In fact, we all know that Mu Yutong gave you a B-rank martial technique called the ‘Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique’. Don’t waste time there. Hurry up and get it over with so that I can…”

“Rat!” The thin man roared angrily and interrupted the burly man.

If not for the current tense situation, Chu Nan would have laughed.

This burly man called “Rat” was really a standard dumb teammate. He actually revealed the information himself. It was really a waste of his boss’s hard work.

“Cough… in short, that’s it. Chu Nan, hand over the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique. As long as you take it out obediently, we won’t make things difficult for you. We’ll return your sister to you and we’ll leave separately. We’ll mind our own business in the future.”

“How can I believe that you will keep your promise?” Chu Nan asked in a low voice.

“Ha…” The thin man laughed mockingly and spread his hands,” In this situation, so what if you don’t believe me?”.

Chu Nan turned around and glanced at Chu Xiaoxi and the burly man who was still holding a knife to her neck. After a moment of silence, he nodded.

“You’re right. However, tear open the seal on my sister’s mouth first. I want to speak to her.”

“Hmph, it’s good that you’re obedient. What do you want to say to your sister?” The burly man hugged Chu Xiaoxi’s arm tightly and grunted.

“This seal covers more than half of her face. How do I know if she’s really my sister?” Chu Nan said coldly.

“You can’t even recognize your own sister?”

“Nonsense, I haven’t been home for more than a year. Her appearance has changed greatly in the past year, so how can I recognize her without relying on my face?” Chu Nan replied self-righteously, “If you casually capture a similar girl to pretend to be my sister, why should I listen to you?”

“This…” The burly man looked at the thin

man.

The thin man sneered, “I didn’t expect you to be so careful despite your young age. Forget it, Rat, tear open the seal and let him take a look.”

The burly man muttered and reached out to tear the seal on Chu Xiaoxi’s mouth.

“Brother! Run! They want to kill you! Don’t worry…”

As soon as the seal was torn, Chu Xiaoxi immediately shouted wildly.

However, halfway through her shout, the burly man pressed the seal back again, and the latter half of her sentence was only left with gurgling sobs.

“How is it? Are you sure she’s your sister now?” The thin man shrugged, “Don’t misunderstand, we’re not interested in killing you because killing you won’t do us any good, right? We only want to obtain the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique.”

Chu Nan nodded. “You’re right. Come, I’ve stored the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique in my personal terminal. Come over and I’ll send you the information.”

The thin man shook his head. “No, open the information and throw your personal terminal over. I’ll take it myself.”

“Sure.”

Chu Nan operated his personal terminal and first pulled out the information regarding the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique. Then, he canceled the binding of his personal terminal before taking it from his arm and throwing it over.

The thin man read the information carefully for a moment before suddenly laughing.

“Haha, I didn’t expect to obtain it so easily. Alright, Rat, attack!”

The burly man beside Chu Xiaoxi moved his arm when he heard this and raised his knife.
