The Little Demon had been away for several days, and Chen Nan and the others thought he had disappeared. It wasn't until the seventh day that he finally returned.
The Little Demon seemed quite exhausted, "Chen Nan, quickly... bring a pot of spiritual liquid that's been aged for a hundred thousand years to replenish my strength!"
Chen Nan looked at him and indeed he seemed really tired. Perhaps he encountered strong enemies from the Heavenly People Clan while he was out. Given his current strength, unless he met invincible strong people... but the chances of that were slim.
Recently, the Twelve Palaces of the Heavenly People hadn't made any major moves. It's unlikely they were planning any encirclement operation.
They probably had other more important matters to attend to, leaving no energy to deal with Chen Nan.
