School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 777: Chapter 854 I’ll Cut It Down!

Ye Ruoshui’s body trembled uncontrollably, and at that moment her complexion turned deathly pale, her eyes filled with fear as she looked at Chen Nan, ”Chen Nan, you will regret killing me!”

”Regret your sister!”

Chen Nan grabbed her collar in one hand, and with the other, lifted his palm to strike down on her forehead.

As Chen Nan’s hand grew closer and the prospect of death under his hand seemed imminent, Ye Ruoshui screamed in utter fear, ”Don’t kill me, I am Ye Yiyi’s biological older sister!”

Chen Nan paused.

He stared into Ye Ruoshui’s eyes and sneered, ”Do you expect me to believe your ghost story?”

”I have proof!” Ye Ruoshui said.

Chen Nan frowned and stared at her, ”What proof?”

”My sister and I are twin sisters; our parents were both martial artists. Shortly after we were born, our home was savagely attacked by enemies, almost the entire family was killed, with only our father protecting us, fighting a bloody path through the enemies, which also left him mortally wounded. As for what happened later, and how my sister and I got separated, I do not know; these things I learned from a blood letter left by my father.”

Chen Nan nodded and said indifferently, ”Go on, keep fabricating, let’s see how fascinating you can make your story.”

”I am not lying!”

Ye Ruoshui truly felt Chen Nan’s intent to kill and desperately shook her head, ”If you don’t believe me, I can show you the blood letter my father left.”

Chen Nan looked at her coldly and extended his hand, ”Bring it out.”

Ye Ruoshui had a storage ring on her finger. She took out a cloth full of purple-black script and handed it to Chen Nan, saying, ”This was found in my swaddling clothes by the couple who adopted me after I was found next to my father’s corpse. At that time, there was only I and my father’s body; Yiyi had already disappeared.”

The writing on the blood letter was indeed dried blood.

Chen Nan examined the blood letter and found the contents consistent with what Ye Ruoshui had said. However, there was no mention of Ye Yiyi, just that Ye Ruoshui had a sister named Ye Ruoxue.

Feeling Chen Nan’s disbelief, Ye Ruoshui hastily said, ”Ruoxue is your junior sister; she must have changed her name later!”

Chen Nan chuckled coldly, ”Why should I believe you?”

”Just spare me, and someday you will find evidence,” Ye Ruoshui said.

Chen Nan snorted and pointed at the blood book, ”The blood book written by your father states that both you and Ye Ruoxue were born on June 12, yet Yiyi’s birthday is June 15. If you really are twin sisters, how could your birthdays not be the same day!”

”I...”

Ye Ruoshui didn’t know how to explain and hastily said, ”There must be a mistake with her birthday, surely it’s wrong.”

After a moment of silence, Chen Nan tossed the matter aside, ”For Yiyi’s sake, I’ll spare you this one time. Cross me again, and you will not be forgiven!”

In the current situation, Chen Nan could not actually kill her.

After all, some of what Ye Ruoshui said was not entirely unreasonable; if Chen Nan killed her now and it turned out she truly was Ye Yiyi’s biological sister, he would have a hard time explaining to his junior sister. Despite Ye Ruoshui’s prior wrongdoing, blood ties did run deeper than water.

”You may go.”

Chen Nan did not return the blood book to her.

He planned to take it back to his junior sister to verify its contents and also to ask Xuan Tianji whether he knew anything about the past events.

After a glance at Chen Nan, Ye Ruoshui turned and left.

Guo Qiye, who had been secretly hostile towards Chen Nan, only frowned when he saw Ye Ruoshui leaving and then continued deeper into the mountains.

Chen Nan and Zhao Han did not speed up to catch up, but instead, walked with the rest of the group.

Zhao Han had evidently noticed Guo Qiye, who had been covertly spying on them, and said to Chen Nan, ”This guy is a formidable opponent.”

Chen Nan shrugged and said, ”Why don’t you go and kill him then?”

Zhao Han shot him the middle finger. ”You always come up with crappy ideas. By the time I kill him, the treasure will already be in someone else’s hands.”

”If you know, then stop wasting words and hurry up!” Chen Nan said.

At this moment, Guo Qiye, who was nearby, took the initiative to come over, but not as a foe. He clasped his fist and said, ”Brothers, my name is Guo Qiye. We’re moving too slowly like this. How about the three of us join forces and speed up our advance inward? With our strength, even if we encounter strong opponents, I believe we can still protect ourselves.”

”I don’t mind.”

Chen Nan looked toward Zhao Han and asked, ”What about you?”

”Let’s go!”

Zhao Han jumped straight onto his Flying Sword.

Guo Qiye was also a cultivator and naturally capable of Sword Flight, leaving only Chen Nan in a pitiful state. He could only rely on the Black Feathered Chicken for transport, becoming the Black Chicken Knight.

Since the three of them were flying through the air, they saw many cultivators all rushing toward the depths of the forest. However, since the cultivators were walking on foot, they were much slower, and Chen Nan and his companions quickly left them behind.

After flying for about five more miles, the temperature gradually began to drop.

Zhao Han’s expression became solemn as he said, ”The temperature is dropping more and more. I guess we’re almost there.”

Just then, a thunderous roar suddenly echoed through the air, followed by an overpowering scent of death sweeping over them. Zhao Han quickly said, ”This is Corpse-controlling Sect’s territory. There must be their War Corpses guarding nearby. Flying makes us too visible; we need to get back to the ground quickly.”

All three men and the chicken quickly descended, but it was still a step too late, and they were spotted by a nearby War Corpse.

The moment the three men landed, the War Corpse opened its bloody maw and swung its sharp claws, emitting an incredibly fierce Killing Aura as it pounced toward them.

This War Corpse must have been an expert of the Earth Penetration Realm in life, for its momentum was very strong.

Guo Qiye, being in the front, was the first to face the charge. Seeing the War Corpse attacking, he hurriedly urged his Flying Sword to defend.

However, with just one swipe, the Flying Sword was sent flying, and the War Corpse’s claw remained unscathed, still brimming with a lethal aura as it charged at Guo Qiye. In a critical moment, he cast a Magic Treasure shield, only for it to clang loudly as the shield was repelled back, striking Guo Qiye on the chest.

”Puh...”

Guo Qiye spat out blood, his body sent flying backward.

Surprisingly, the War Corpse did not pursue him but instead charged at Zhao Han.

”Kill!”

Zhao Han activated his Flying Sword, which grew from a little over one meter to a Giant Sword ten meters long, shaking the Void as he swung it down at the War Corpse’s head.

”Clang!”

Sparks flew as the War Corpse stepped back twice but then advanced again, showing no sign of injury.

Chen Nan was astonished.

The strength that Guo Qiye demonstrated was on par with Zhao Han, both in the Seventh Layer of Control, but in actual combat, he could intimidate experts of the Eighth Layer Heaven, even Nine-layered Heaven.

Yet, such a powerful young expert was sent flying by the War Corpse in just two moves.

This showed how strong that War Corpse truly was!

With Guo Qiye’s experience as a warning, Zhao Han was extremely cautious, but he still couldn’t match the War Corpse.

Seeing that Zhao Han was no longer able to resist, Chen Nan channeled his Inner Strength to break his fingertip, shooting a Blood Arrow onto the Demon Sword. He leaped forward toward the War Corpse and yelled, ”Brother, get back, I’ll slay it!”
