Dashing Student-Chapter 484 - , Luring the Snake out of Its Hole
The Qingyun Six Heroes nodded thoughtfully, agreeing that their master Jingxuzi’s words made much sense.
In the age of Dharma decline, spiritual energy exhausted, even if someone breaks through numerous shackles to become a true Taoist Practitioner, it would certainly be those Loose Cultivators hidden deep within the famous mountains.
Chen Nan is only twenty years old, how could he possibly become a true Taoist Practitioner? It’s absolutely impossible!
On the other side, Chen Nan arrived in the backyard of Qingyun Temple.
As soon as he stepped into the backyard, he keenly sensed two presences in the firewood shed.
One of the presences was Xu Lu’s, familiar to him as his own breath.
The other, though unfamiliar, he could feel was a woman.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
Without even thinking, it must be Lin Yu’s subordinate, the woman named Han Lu.
He stood in the yard of the firewood shed, his gaze icy, and coldly spoke toward the direction of the shed: "Han Lu, you’ve gone through a great deal to lure me to Qingyun Temple, now that I’m here, why do you not dare to show yourself?"
The next moment, the door of the firewood shed creakily opened slowly like the Gate of Netherworld slowly unfolding, emitting a chilling aura.
Xu Lu was seen tightly bound with hemp ropes, like a helpless lamb being roughly pushed out by the woman named Han Lu.
Han Lu was tall, clad in black, her graceful figure wrapped up, her pale beautiful face exuded coldness and ruthlessness; she was holding a sharp dagger, its cold gleam flickering, directly placed against Xu Lu’s slender neck.
Although Han Lu appeared calm, her heart was already in turmoil.
Clearly, she had not expected Chen Nan to not only overcome the Qingyun Six Heroes but also defeat Jingxuzi.
Of course, that was not important.
What suffocated her was that she had spent a fortune to buy a sniper rifle to kill Chen Nan and eliminate future troubles.
But who could have imagined that Chen Nan would safely reach the firewood shed?
Feeling the cold murderous aura from him, she suddenly felt as if falling into an ice cellar, her body turning cold, almost suffocating.
Seeing Xu Lu threatened with a dagger, Chen’s eyes instantly widened, a raging killing intent spreading from his body, he gritted his teeth and said: "Misfortune should not involve friends and family, you should not court death like this!"
Despite Han Lu’s stunning appearance, in Chen’s eyes, she was just a despicable villain with no pity deserved.
Han Lu’s lips curled into a smug and cruel smile, her eyes full of provocation, she stared at Chen Nan, and with a sharp and slightly smug voice, she said: "Chen Nan, stop putting on airs!"
"Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you have some tricks!"
"If you don’t hand over the Amulet you have today, I will immediately slit this little girl’s throat and let her blood spill right here!" saying this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes!
Xu Lu’s eyes were full of fear and panic, her lips trembled, mustering all her strength she shouted towards Chen: "Chen Nan, don’t worry about me, run! Don’t be threatened by this crazy woman!" Her voice trembled with fear, the tail tone carrying a hint of crying.
Han Lu’s eyebrows furrowed, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, she suddenly exerted force, the sharp dagger creating a shallow cut on Xu Lu’s neck, she fiercely barked: "Dare to scream again, and I’ll send you to the west right now!"
Chen Nan felt a rush of blood to the head, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his knuckles whitening with the force.
But he knew well that this was not the time to act rashly, as any carelessness could cost Xu Lu her life.
He forcefully suppressed the rage in his heart, took a deep breath, and tried to keep his voice calm as he spoke: "Han Lu, don’t go too far! If you want something, come at me; why make things difficult for an innocent woman?"
Han Lu sneered coldly, her laughter sharp and piercing, slicing through the silent air like a blade grazing past one’s ear.
Her eyes revealed greed and eagerness as she stared intensely at Chen Nan, speaking viciously, "Cut the crap! I want the amulets on you, hand them all over; otherwise, this girl’s life is over!"
Her gaze firmly fixed on the amulets in Chen Nan’s arms, as a hungry wolf eyes its prey, making no attempt to conceal her covetous desire.
Chen Nan frowned deeply, a flash of anger in his eyes. After a brief pause, without another word, he reached into his chest and pulled out the remaining five amulets and hurled them toward Han Lu without hesitation.
This scene caught the eyes of Qing virtual master and others who had just arrived. They instantly felt their scalps tingle as if countless needles were pricking their heads, a chilling sensation emerging spontaneously.
Their eyes widened in shock, their faces full of astonishment; they had never dreamed that Chen Nan would carry so many amulets on his person.
To put it bluntly, across all the martial arts circles, the amulets passed down didn’t come close to this number.
For a moment, everyone became intensely curious about Chen Nan’s origins.
Chen Nan watched Han Lu coldly, his eyes emitting a glimmer of icy murderous intent, and spoke in a frosty tone, "The amulets are yours now, you can let the person go, right?"
Han Lu’s lips slightly curved up, revealing a meaningful smile, speaking leisurely, "Not yet! At least, not until I have left the mountain."
"After all, with your strength, if I let this woman go and you attack me, I would surely die by your hand."
"Fine, leave the mountain then!" Chen Nan, suppressing his anger, ultimately chose to compromise.
A smug look appeared on Han Lu as she pushed Xu Lu forward, saying coldly, "Let’s go!"
"You follow her down the mountain first, I’ll come to find you later," Chen Nan said with a slight smile to Xu Lu, then secretly activated the King of Ten Thousand Gu within him, letting it enter Han Lu’s body to ensure Xu Lu’s safety.
He gave up those amulets to the other side for the purpose of tracking her whereabouts.
After all.
The amulets were drawn by him; even after giving them to someone else, within a certain distance, he could still sense the fluctuations and aura emitted by the amulets.
Thus, what difficulty would there be in finding Lin Yu, this mysterious individual?
Those five amulets were the bait for drawing the snake out of the hole!
Later, Chen Nan left Qingyun Temple and stopped at the entrance of the temple gate; he closed his eyes to recuperate, sensing the position of the King of Ten Thousand Gu.
Upon feeling that Xu Lu had safely descended the mountain and separated, he then retrieved the Gu insect from Han Lu’s body.
Soon after, he prepared to descend the mountain and meet with Xu Lu.
But at that moment.
He seemed to think of something, looked up at the plaque of Qingyun Temple, then leapt up, taking down the large plaque made of Huanghuali wood.
"What are you doing, Chen Nan?" Seeing the plaque of his temple being taken down, Qing virtual master became furiously enraged.
Chen Nan looked back with a smile: "I see that the wood of this plaque is quite nice, planning to carve some beads out of it, any objections?"
