Chapter 686: Chapter 762: Bloodstained Battle Robe

"A defeated general still dares to speak arrogantly."

Chen Nan sneered disdainfully and turned to walk toward the academic building.

However, at this moment, Long Zhigang stopped in his tracks and provoked, "If you dare, let’s settle this today. If you lose, you’ll stay away from Huo Xinya forever."

Chen Nan stopped, pointed at his feet, and said, "If you lose, I will break your legs and cripple your martial arts."

"I am sure to win."

Long Zhigang pointed outside the school and said, "This place is inconvenient. Shall we find somewhere else to compare our skills?"

"Whatever."

Long Zhigang led the way, saying, "I know a spacious, deserted place not far from the school."

The two young experts, one after another, dashed out of the school gate like streaks of light, heading south.

Two minutes later, they arrived at a forest. The forest was very secluded and rarely visited, surrounded by tall trees and very spacious.

Muttering a spell silently, Long Zhigang formed a hand sign, and a Flying Sword with a dazzling cold light hovered in front of him, its blade pointing directly at Chen Nan, "Last time, at the Fourth Level of Taoist, I lost to you. Now, in just three months, I have broken through two Heavenly Realms and stepped into the Sixth Level of Taoist. Let’s see how you can stop me now!"

Chen Nan was somewhat surprised by Long Zhigang’s potential.

To break through two Heavenly Realms in three months required a tremendous stroke of luck and understanding.

Of course, this didn’t mean Chen Nan’s martial arts potential was inferior. During these three months, he had constantly nurtured the Divine Tree with his blood, ensuring that his Cultivation didn’t fall, which was already fortunate. Moreover, on the way back, he had managed to break through to the Third Layer of Heaven, which was quite rare.

Glancing at Long Zhigang, Chen Nan scoffed, "Do you think you’re the only one progressing while everyone else’s Cultivation remains stagnant?"

"You’re only at the Third Level of Taoist!"

"I’ve killed Cultivators from the Seventh Layer; you’re merely at the early stages of the Sixth Realm. Killing you is like slaughtering a dog."

The two were unyielding in their words, both trying to suppress the other’s morale.

Just as both were boiling with anger and ready to unleash a fierce battle, suddenly a woman in white, drenched in blood, clutching her chest and staggering, ran toward them.

"Thud..."

When she was still about fifty meters away, she fell to the ground, desperately reaching out to Chen Nan, "Someone is after me, brother... save me..."

"Yiyi!"

Chen Nan’s usually calm heart instantly erupted with towering waves of rage.

Guarding against Long Zhigang’s sneak attack, Chen Nan moved swiftly as lightning, rushing over to her. He caught her in his arms, tightly holding her blood-stained hands: "Yiyi, how are you? Don’t scare me. Who dares to chase you?"

"I can hardly hold on, but I’m glad... glad to see you before I die..."

As she spoke weakly, Chen Nan quickly took out two pills and put them into her mouth, saying, "Don’t be afraid, with me here, nothing will happen to you. I will find a place to treat your injuries right away."

She smiled sweetly, "Brother, you are so kind to me."

As Chen Nan held her, just about to stand up, he frowned upon hearing her words, "Why do you only call me brother now?"

"Because..."

She wore a mysterious smile on her face, and just as Chen Nan awaited her continuation, a cold light flashed from her sleeve, and she grabbed a dagger and viciously stabbed it into Chen Nan’s right chest.

"Pfft..."

Blood splattered as the dagger penetrated three inches deep, only to be clamped by Chen Nan’s muscles.

"You are Ye Ruoshui!"

Chen Nan roared in anger, and with a palm strike, he sent her flying dozens of meters away; the cold, gleaming dagger still stuck in his chest had reached his heart, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, "You bitch, in view of your face, I’ve spared your life time and time again, yet you persistently try to kill me!"

Ye Ruoshui smirked coldly, getting up from the ground, "Who told you to be as stupid as a pig each time, so easily deceived? I merely used a fake arm, and you really thought I was your junior sister."

As she spoke, Ye Ruoshui grabbed her left arm and pulled, suddenly a fake arm fell to the ground.

Over five months ago, while seeking revenge on Chen Nan, her left arm was chopped off by one of the Sky Team’s Five Tiger Generals, the Ice Sparrow, turning her into a one-armed woman. If it hadn’t been for her having both arms today, Chen Nan wouldn’t have been so easily deceived.

"You ungrateful bitch, I absolutely cannot spare you today!"

Chen Nan looked down at the dagger in his chest, clenched his fists, and his muscles tensed; suddenly, there was a "crack" sound—the steel dagger, twisted by his Martial Body, shattered into more than a dozen pieces and shot out, piercing through a tree ahead.

Ye Ruoshui knew his heart was on the right side, hence she aimed the dagger at his right chest.

If it weren’t for Chen Nan’s strong Martial Body and the protection of the Ancient Shield at the last moment, using his muscles to clamp the dagger, it might have already pierced his heart; although he stopped it in time, the tip of the blade still injured his heart, and the internal damage was serious.

"Chen Nan, do you still think you can beat me now?"

Long Zhigang laughed unrestrainedly, stepped forward, and said to Ye Ruoshui, "Congratulations on avenging your master. From today onwards, you will take your master’s place and serve the organization well."

Ye Ruoshui hurriedly bowed with her fists, "Thank you, young master!"

The two of them were actually partners!

Chen Nan clutched his chest, seeing Long Zhigang closing in, it was too late to heal, "Are you from an assassin organization?"

"Ask King Yama!"

As Long Zhigang charged forward, a Flying Sword hissed through the air like a meteor, aiming at Chen Nan, and he shouted, "As long as you’re alive, Huo Xinya will never look at me straight; so, you must die!"

Seeing the Flying Sword coming, Chen Nan’s expression changed slightly.

Long Zhigang was merely at the Sixth Level of Taoist, but the Flying Sword in front of him was an eighth-grade Spiritual Artifact; it seemed his earlier guess was right, Long must be a young master of some assassin organization.

If he were at his full strength, Chen Nan could have smashed an eighth-grade Spiritual Artifact with a few strikes of Crack Sky Hand.

But now, severely injured internally, his strength was compromised, and using the Crack Sky Hand was not as effortless as usual.

Moreover, the recent stab had injured his heart; with the blood circulating through his heart, ordinary Acupoint techniques couldn’t stop the bleeding. For now, he was suppressing it with his Inner Strength, but as soon as the fight broke out, the fresh blood wouldn’t stop gushing out.

"Clang..."

With a loud noise, Chen Nan repelled the Flying Sword with a palm strike, his right side clothing already stained red with fresh blood.

Long Zhigang laughed unrestrainedly, seeing the situation as within his control, he then released two more Magic Treasures, three eighth-grade Spiritual Artifacts together attacking Chen Nan, and laughed, "Today, I want to see how much blood you can still lose!"
