Dashing Student-Chapter 535 : Goad Technique

Lin Yu was momentarily stunned, his expression frozen instantly, but in the blink of an eye, it was again filled with an eager smile.

He held the wine pot steadily with both hands, personally pouring a cup of wine for Wu Yin, the liquid swirling in the cup like amber.

"Sect elder indeed has a straightforward and generous nature. Since you speak so candidly, I won't beat around the bush either."

He paused slightly, a sharp and fierce light suddenly flashing in his eyes, like a cold lightning across the night sky: "I must confess, I have developed a deadly feud with a young man."

He sighed lightly, a helpless bitter smile appearing on his face: "This fellow's strength is beyond imagination. I have tried to deal with him several times but have repeatedly faced setbacks, even nearly being completely defeated, nearly leading to an irrecoverable downfall."

In the provincial capital, Lin Yu has always been a formidable figure, handling both the underworld and legitimate businesses with ease, truly capable of turning the clouds and rain with a wave of his hand.

For a long time, it was he who decided the life and death of others.

Yet now, he was driven to a desperate situation by a young man, something he had never anticipated, filling his heart with resentment and unwillingness.

Wu Yin lightly picked up his cup of wine, brought it to his lips and slowly sipped, his expression calm, as if savoring the fragrance of the wine, yet also seeming to patiently wait for Lin Yu to continue speaking. His gaze was profound and inscrutable.

Seeing this, Lin Yu's expression became even more sincere, his tone filled with pleading: "I've long heard that the Poisonous Insect Sect possesses vast divine skills and mysterious methods, so I boldly request the elder's assistance."

He slightly bowed, his posture very humble: "As long as the elder can help me eliminate the rival, whether it's mountains of gold and silver, or any other demands, just state them and I, Lin Yu, will do my utmost to satisfy them."

Hearing this, Wu Yin slowly put down his cup, an old face emerging with a cold sneer, carrying a hint of disdain.

"Young Master Lin, do you perhaps see us members of the Poisonous Insect Sect as those common folks dazzled by money?" His voice was deep and hoarse, as if coming from the depths of time.

At those words, the atmosphere in the room instantly froze.

Whether it was Han Lu standing by the side, or Lin Yu sitting across, both distinctly felt a chilling cold rapidly spreading.

That chill, like an invisible fog of ice, made them shiver uncontrollably as if they had suddenly fallen into an ice cellar.

Wu Yin let out a heavy cold snort, the sound echoing in the room like a large bell, carrying an undeniable authority: "Our Poisonous Insect Sect has always secluded itself in the mysterious Miao Border, never meddling in worldly affairs, much less doing someone a service for mere money!"

Seeing Wu Yin so resolute, Lin Yu felt a strong sense of unbearable frustration rising in his heart like a surging tide.

He knew well, if he missed this opportunity to eliminate Chen Nan with the help of the Poisonous Insect Sect, it would be difficult to find such a chance again in the future.

Just thinking of Chen Nan made him restless, as if a thorn was deeply embedded in his heart, tormenting him till it was removed.

With this thought,

Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, steeled his heart, and decided to take a risk.

"Elder, I understand your refusal, but could it be that you deliberately say so because you are wary of the Suoming Sect?" His voice trembled slightly, yet carried a sense of desperate decisiveness.

At these words, Wu Yin's eyebrows instantly knitted into the character "川", his eyes flashing with a hint of caution and displeasure.

"What do you mean by that? Does that kid have any connection with the Suoming Sect?" His tone was low and cold, as if carrying traces of chill.

Although the Suoming Sect and the Poisonous Insect Sect are both part of the Outer Eight Sects, their relationship is not very harmonious.

Lin Yu squeezed out a forced smile, which appeared particularly stiff on his face: "Elder, whether that person is from the Suoming Sect or not, I honestly do not know."

"But one thing is true, he has a deep connection with the Suoming Sect, and he is their benefactor."

He spoke cautiously, all the while keenly observing Wu Yin's expression, trying to capture any useful information from his face.

Wu Yin's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and the wrinkles on his forehead were as deep as ravines. He stared at Lin Yu with suspicion, his gaze as if trying to see through him.

"What exactly is the name of that guy?" His voice subtly revealed a hint of urgency.

"Chen Nan!" Lin Yu didn't hesitate to blurt out the name, his voice not loud but like a heavy bomb, explosively filling the room.

The instant Wu Yin heard "Chen Nan", his heart trembled vehemently, his eyes revealing an expression of disbelief.

In truth, Wu Yin had come all this long way to the provincial city, enduring the hardships of travel, with only one thing on his mind—to eliminate Chen Nan.

Chen Nan had killed Yang Ji, a traitor from the Poisonous Insect Sect, and by a twist of fate, seized the Poisonous Insect Sect Token which symbolized the supreme power of the sect.

According to the rules of the Poisonous Insect Sect, Chen Nan rightly should become the new Sect Leader.

However, in Wu Yin's narrow and stubborn view, the Poisonous Insect Sect had always been the realm of their orthodox members, and he could not tolerate an outsider with no blood ties to the sect taking control and sitting in the supreme position of Sect Leader.

Driven by such deep-rooted convictions, Wu Yin resolutely embarked on this journey to the provincial city filled with murderous intent.

His heart harbored only one unwavering purpose—to get rid of Chen Nan and reclaim the Sect Leader Token, to once again take the reins of power into their own hands.

Seeing Wu Yin suddenly lose composure, Lin Yu, who had been disheartened, suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and couldn't help but tentatively ask, "Could it be that senior also knows of this person?"

Wu Yin, seemingly jolted from deep thought, didn't respond directly to Lin Yu's inquiry but instead subtly narrowed his eyes, a flicker of calculative light passing through them unnoticed.

Changing the subject, he asked in a tone that was flat yet mysteriously coy, "How much are you planning to spend to take his life?"

As a high-ranking Elder in the Poisonous Insect Sect, Wu Yin was usually prideful and scornful of acting as an assassin for others, deeming such murderous deeds unfitting for him.

However, Chen Nan was an extremely special case for him.

His core disgust and desire to kill Chen Nan were deeply ingrained—eliminating Chen Nan was something he was determined to see through.

Thus, he didn't mind making a hefty profit from Lin Yu, who was an eager employer, while completing this task.

Lin Yu genuinely didn't expect such a drastic change in Wu Yin's attitude; what originally seemed like a hopeless situation suddenly bore the prospect of a turnaround.

His heart suddenly raced, as if it would burst out of his chest.

Suppressing his excitement, he slowly extended five fingers, voice trembling slightly with excitement, "Five billion!"

"As long as senior can successfully get rid of Chen Nan, these five billion will be yours immediately!"

Hearing this, the corners of Wu Yin's mouth curled into a slightly raised, meaningful cold smirk.

"Five billion, that indeed shows quite some sincerity," Wu Yin slowly spoke, his voice low and icy, "However, I need you to provide detailed information about Chen Nan, the more detailed, the better."

Lin Yu promptly nodded, his face piled with ingratiating smiles, "Senior, rest assured, I have already sent people to investigate this."

"I will organize all the information and present it to senior as soon as possible." Saying this, a glint of cold light flashed in his eyes.

Chen Nan, oh, Chen Nan, with a powerhouse from the Poisonous Insect Sect making a move, how could you possibly still have a chance to live?
