Dashing Student-Chapter 486: Blessing in Disguise

Fortunately, Chen Nan was exceptionally strong, otherwise he would have certainly faced life-threatening danger today.

If that were the case, she would have felt guilty for the rest of her life!

"Alright, let’s head back to Jizhou first!" Chen Nan looked towards the north, abandoning his intention to enter the provincial capital at the moment, and then placed the Qingyun Temple’s signboard and the incense burner in the trunk.

Afterwards, he started the car and drove Xu Lu in the direction of Jizhou.

He definitely needed to go to the provincial capital, but not now. At the very least, he needed to investigate the matter concerning Lin Yu first.

In fact, Chen Nan had a way to find out Lin Yu’s whereabouts, which was to let the King of Ten Thousand Gu infest Han Lu’s body, so he could sense Han Lu’s location through the King of Ten Thousand Gu, and thereby track down Lin Yu.

Although this plan was feasible, he couldn’t put it into action at the moment.

The reason was simple; the Suoming Sect had already sent people to the Miao Border to inform the Poisonous Insect Sect about his act of killing Yang Ji.

Now he had the Sect Leader Token of the Poisonous Insect Sect in his hand, which in theory meant he was about to become the Sect Leader of the sect.

However, no one knew whether the members of the Poisonous Insect Sect would accept him.

It was precisely because of this that Chen Nan did not allow the King of Ten Thousand Gu to enter Han Lu’s body; he was concerned that if the Poisonous Insect Sect found him and did not acknowledge his leadership, he would be no match for them.

On the contrary, if the King of Ten Thousand Gu was still in his possession, even if the Poisonous Insect Sect did not accept him, he would have nothing to fear.

"Honey, why did you take away the signboard of Qingyun Temple and the incense burner?" On the way, Xu Lu looked at Chen Nan with a puzzled face, not understanding the purpose of his actions.

"Ah?" Chen Nan looked at her confusedly: "Qingyun Temple? What Qingyun Temple?"

"???"

Xu Lu furrowed her brows and couldn’t help but retort, "What Qingyun Temple are you talking about?"

Chen Nan laughed heartily, "The signboard and incense burner of Qingyun Temple have been taken by me, how could there still be a Qingyun Temple in this world?"

Xu Lu was just an ordinary person, completely unaware of the rules of Jianghu.

In Jianghu, once a faction’s signboard and their inherited relics are taken by others, it signifies that the faction has been wiped out.

Driving leisurely, Chen Nan explained: "This signboard has been passed down for hundreds of years; it is made of high-quality Huali wood, which is very rare. If used to make beads, it can ward off evil spirits, calm minds, and ensure safety!"

"As for that incense burner, it is an even rarer treasure!"

An incense burner differs from a Pill Furnace by just one character.

They are two things with different uses.

But...

The Qingyun Temple’s incense burner has already become a Magic Artifact, and thus its uses have become much more extensive.

For Chen Nan, he could completely use the incense burner from Qingyun Temple to craft Body Tempering Pills.

"Actually, I should thank you!" Chen Nan glanced at Xu Lu in the passenger seat, his expression complex, "I was just missing a Pill Furnace, and this turned out to be a blessing in disguise!"

Hearing Chen Nan’s words, the guilt within Xu Lu’s heart diminished a lot, and she felt a wave of gratitude.

She didn’t know if Chen Nan was trying to comfort her.

But it indeed made her feel much better inside.

On the other side.

Han Lu returned to Lin Yu’s residence, her face tense as she said to him: "I’m sorry, Master, our mission has failed!"

Lin Yu was sitting in the spacious study room, and when he heard Han Lu’s words, the hand that was holding a book paused, and he slowly raised his head, his gaze sharp as it shot towards Han Lu.

His eyes revealed a cold and piercing air, giving one the illusion of their scalp tingling with fear and trepidation.

"You said that this time was foolproof, that we could eliminate Chen Nan, didn’t you? Why did it fail again?" Lin Yu stared at Han Lu expressionlessly, enunciating each word: "If you can’t even handle this trivial matter, what use are you?"

Han Lu was so frightened that she trembled all over, her head hanging so low it almost touched her chest, not daring to look up at Lin Yu.

Her hands clenched unconsciously into fists, her knuckles turning white from the force, and her body shook slightly.

After a while, Han Lu mustered the courage to raise her head, her eyes filled with fear and unease as she carefully said: "Master, Chen Nan is just too powerful, neither the Qingyun Six Heroes nor Jingxuzi are a match for him!"

"Even though I spent a lot of money on a sniper rifle, but..."

"Chen Nan has an amulet on him, and the power of that amulet is exceptionally strong, it can even withstand the impact of bullets!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu abruptly stood up, his gaze filled with disbelief: "You’re saying that the amulet on Chen Nan can withstand a sniper rifle’s bullet?"

As a commanding presence in the provincial city, Lin Yu was naturally aware of some miraculous existences in the martial arts world.

Even so, he had not expected that the amulet on Chen Nan could withstand sniper bullets.

Han Lu quickly took out five amulets from her pocket, offering them to Lin Yu with a respectful face, explaining: "Master, I blackmailed Chen Nan with Xu Lu’s life before he handed over his amulets."

Lin Yu stared at the amulets on the desk with a grave expression, muttering to himself: "How does that guy have so many amulets?"

Amulets have always been key to survival, and even he, a figure who called the wind and summoned the rain in the provincial city, had never seen such rare treasures. The fact that Chen Nan could produce so many of them truly shocked him.

At this moment, Chen Nan had become an existence shrouded in mystery, in his eyes.

It seemed Han Lu had just remembered something, and she hurriedly added: "Master, I’ve received news that Chen Nan took the Qingyun Temple’s plaque and also stole the incense burner that Qingyun Temple has passed down through generations."

At this, Lin Yu’s eyes flashed with a hint of astonishment, exclaiming: "Is he trying to sever the legacy of Qingyun Temple?"

Han Lu nodded solemnly, saying: "Exactly, this is even more cruel than directly killing Jingxuzi."

"He’s made a mortal enemy out of Qingyun Temple."

Hearing this, a playful look appeared on Lin Yu’s face, he chuckled: "If that’s the case, then let’s just sit back and watch the fight, see if Chen Nan can endure the wrath of a Great Grandmaster."

"Also, keep a close watch on every move of Chen Nan, and if he enters the provincial city, you must notify me at once!"

Even though Lin Yu wanted to get rid of Chen Nan now, with his current ability, he was no match for Chen Nan.

At this point in time.

He could only hope that the Great Grandmaster behind Jingxuzi would quickly take action to eliminate Chen Nan and rid him of this great concern!

Otherwise, he would be restless!

As he said this, he picked up the five amulets on the desk, his eyes becoming excited: "Take me home, such treasures should be carried by the most beloved!"

"Yes!" Han Lu replied respectfully, immediately driving Lin Yu away from the villa.

Little did they know.

The amulets they thought could save lives!

For Chen Nan, they were not merely for saving lives!

They could even be remotely controlled to self-destruct and claim lives!
