Chapter 753: Do You Mind If I Touch You?
Looking at Chu Nan, Yang Xirui sighed in her mind.
In the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition less than a year ago, Chu Nan was only an ordinary student in this martial arts academy that was not outstanding in the federation. If not for the fact that he was called out by the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, that it was almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future, no one would have noticed him.
Even if Chu Nan relied on his outstanding performance to stun countless people in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition and obtained a small reputation in the federation, no one would really take him seriously.
In the end, since the two Star-Grade Martial Artists had determined that it was almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future, he was at most a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. It was impossible for him to attract too much attention from others.
However, in the next year, Chu Nan’s experience surprised everyone.
Not only did he unexpectedly enter Star Cloud Academy, but his results in the entrance examination were also extremely outstanding, suppressing genius martial artists like Feng Mingxi and Angie Prairie who received a lot of attention.
After entering Star Cloud Academy, his dispute with the Martial Arts Branch’s officials about whether Chu Nan was involved in leaking the academy’s cultivation method also attracted widespread attention.
In that dispute, he had once again displayed his extremely powerful talent to everyone. He had almost embarrassed the leadership of the entire Martial Arts Branch alone.
However, most people’s opinion of Chu Nan was still regretful.
It was really a pity that such an outstanding young martial artist was unable to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate because his starting foundation was not stable.
Therefore, when the incident in the Leppler Star System was exposed and the video recording of Chu Nan’s body falling into the stargate was exposed, it immediately caused a huge commotion in the entire Earth Federation.
People were shocked that the huge caravan of the Earth Federation had actually encountered cosmic pirates with huge data in the Leppler Star System. They were also surprised and happy that the Seres Security Company had won the battle with a disparity in strength between the two sides. They were also surprised that a Heaven Control expert had actually appeared among the enemy…
However, in the entire incident, the person who attracted the most attention was Chu Nan.
According to the news from all sides, Chu Nan played an extremely important role in this matter.
Not only did he participate in some of the matters on Planet Leppler, but he also helped the Seres Security Company’s fleet defeat a large number of enemies. In the end, he even lured away the strongest Heaven Control expert of the other party alone and attracted most of the enemy’s attention, allowing the fleet and the entire caravan to safely retreat.
In the entire incident, just that video had already fully displayed his powerful judgment, willpower, courage, and decisiveness. It had completely displayed that his strength had already advanced by leaps and bounds, and he even had the ability to fight the enemy Heaven Control expert in space.
Not only did he use hard facts to prove that the judgment of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, was completely wrong, but he also used his actions to prove his even more precious quality.
However, such an outstanding young genius martial artist… was dead.
After the video was exposed, countless voices appeared in the Earth Federation. They were all feeling pity for Chu Nan’s death. Many of them vented the anger brought about by this pity on Star Cloud Academy and felt that Chu Nan had encountered such a thing in the academy’s trial. From the beginning to the end, they did not see any action from Star Cloud Academy. It was clearly Star Cloud Academy’s negligence that caused this tragedy.
There were even people who boldly targeted Supremacy Mu Yutong. They felt that if not for him directly determining that it was impossible for Chu Nan to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future, the treatment he received would definitely be very different and he would definitely not end up like this.
However, these accusations were meaningless because everyone believed that it was impossible for Chu Nan to survive after entering the stargate.
Therefore, in comparison, more people felt pity for Chu Nan.
With Chu Nan’s talent, if he could continue to live well, wouldn’t there be hope for another Star-Grade Martial Artist to appear in the federation in the future?
If he died now, it would simply be a serious loss to the entire Earth Federation.
However, the plot changed again. Chu Nan had completely exceeded everyone’s expectations and survived!
Yang Xirui stared at Chu Nan seriously for a while before suddenly asking, “About that… Chu Nan, do you mind if I touch your face?”
Seeing Yang Xirui’s surprised expression, Chu Nan laughed.
“What? Do you suspect that I’m someone else in disguise?”
Yang Xirui smiled in embarrassment.
“I just feel that… it’s unbelievable.”
“Alright, if touching my face can confirm its authenticity, touch it.” Chu Nan smiled and leaned over.
Yang Xirui stretched out her hand and hesitated for a moment before reaching out to touch Chu Nan’s face with her finger. Then, she slowly covered it and gently touched his face.
“About that… have you touched enough?” After a while, Chu Nan’s voice sounded.
“Oh…” Only then did Yang Xirui realize in shock and hurriedly retracted her hand. She discovered that Chu Nan’s face had already turned red and immediately chuckled, “I was originally not very sure, but now that I see your face red, I’m certain that you’re indeed Chu Nan. You’re still so shy like last year.”
Chu Nan could only touch his nose and smile bitterly, “Miss Yang, after being touched by a beauty like you for so long, it’s impossible for me not to blush.”
Yang Xirui could not help but laugh.
However, she quickly stopped smiling and straightened her expression, “Alright, let’s get back to the topic. Chu Nan, let’s first ask the question that everyone is most concerned about you. How did you survive? Logically speaking, you fell into the stargate and shouldn’t have the chance to survive.”
“No, there’s actually a very small chance of survival.” Chu Nan shook his head, “You probably haven’t seen an old rumor…”
Chu Nan told him about the person he had thought of after falling into the stargate and appearing hundreds of light-years away.
After hearing this, Yang Xirui widened her eyes in disbelief.
“You mean to say that… you also encountered that situation and another star system appeared hundreds of light-years away?”
She frowned and shook her head.
“That’s still not right. Although the person you mentioned passed through the stargate, he only retained his body. In fact, he was still dead. How did you survive? You have to know that you only entered the stargate alone at that time. Even if you accidentally successfully passed through the stargate, you were still in space. How could you survive?”
“Who said that I can’t survive in space?” Chu Nan smiled and asked.
“How can that be? Unless you’re…” Yang Xirui suddenly paused and stood up, knocking the stool she was sitting on to the ground. She looked at Chu Nan in shock, “Could it be that you’ve already broken through to the Heaven Control Realm? This is impossible!”
