School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1360: Chapter 1446: Traitor

Chen Nan’s expression was extremely agitated as he grabbed the White Silk Ribbon in his hand.

After a careful examination, he confirmed that this white silk ribbon was actually his junior sister’s weapon—the Silver Bell Rope.

However, this Silver Bell Rope was not the one he brought back from the Cold Spring in the Tao Realm, but the one Ye Yiyi had used previously. After all, she was adept at using two-handed Silver Bell Rope, whereas the one Chen Nan brought back was only sufficient for one hand; she needed another ordinary one to use in conjunction.

Chen Nan’s expression turned grave. The Silver Bell Rope in his hand was incomplete, only half of it remained, and the break was very rough, definitely not cut by a weapon, but seemed to have been torn apart.

The tragic state of the Silver Bell Rope before him proved that his junior sister had not only been to the Tao Realm but also encountered a formidable enemy.

Chen Nan’s heart was in turmoil; he never imagined his junior sister would come to the Demon Realm, no wonder he couldn’t find her in the mortal world.

”I don’t even know if Qingqing and the others are with her, it’s just so worrisome.”

Chen Nan tapped his head, feeling more and more uneasy; now the Human Clan is launching nuclear strikes against the Demon Realm, and his junior sister is in the Demon Realm—what if she’s accidentally harmed by nuclear weapons?

But in the current situation, all parties have already split up and taken action, and he has no means to convey the message to others.

Li Xiao, standing nearby, noticed Chen Nan’s agitation and asked, ”What’s wrong? Is there something special about this white silk ribbon?”

”It’s my junior sister’s.”

Chen Nan stared at the Silver Bell Rope in his hand, speaking somewhat absentmindedly.

Li Xiao was taken aback, then smiled: ”That’s good news; at least now you know she’s in the Tao Realm, better than when there was no news at all!”

”But she doesn’t know we’re using nuclear weapons against the Demon Realm. What if she’s accidentally hurt?” Hearing Chen Nan say this, Li Xiao frowned too, unable to think of a good solution even after racking his brains.

After a moment of silence, Li Xiao looked at Chen Nan and said, ”I’ll say something unpleasant, don’t take it to heart. The situation is already like this; whether Ye gets accidentally hurt or not, none of us can control it. We can only rely on her luck.”

Chen Nan knew that Li Xiao was speaking the truth.

After contemplating for a while, Chen Nan sighed and said, ”Let’s go and continue looking for the next target.”

Chen Nan wasn’t unwilling to search for his junior sister, but he didn’t know where to start. The half Silver Bell Rope had been hanging on the tree for a long time, the white silk ribbon having become somewhat yellowed, it had been at least three to five months.

So much time had passed, his junior sister must be no longer nearby.

Chen Nan’s only option now was to investigate each location before bombing it. If there was no news of his junior sister, he would proceed with the bombing.

After several hours of flying, Chen Nan arrived at the second destination—Dragon-locking City—by nightfall.

The Demon Realm is different from the mortal world. At this time in the mortal world, cities are brightly lit and nightlife is just starting. But the Demon Clan doesn’t understand science and lacks entertainment options; at night, except for some places of pleasure, households have mostly closed their doors.

Chen Nan initially wanted to investigate news about his junior sister in the city, but upon entering and seeing the scene, he had no choice but to give up and wait until morning to make plans.

Although the Demon Clan attacks the mortal world, humans also live in their world, so when Chen Nan and the others entered the city, they didn’t attract special attention; after all, there were many humans in the city.

Chen Nan found a nearby inn to stay at, planning to inquire about news in the morning.

Holding the half Silver Bell Rope, Chen Nan sat cross-legged, unable to calm his mind; whenever he closed his eyes, his junior sister’s image emerged in his thoughts.

Li Xiao, observing closely, came to Chen Nan’s side. Her soft body leaned against him, resting her head on his shoulder, she softly said, ”Stop cultivating. I know what’s on your mind, you simply can’t calm down right now.”

”I’m really worried about her.”

Chen Nan said, staring at the torn Silver Bell Rope in his hand.

Though it appears as silk, the Silver Bell Rope is actually a treasure refined through rituals; blades can’t cut it.

Yet now, the Silver Bell Rope was torn apart, showing that the opponent’s power far surpassed Ye Yiyi’s, which is precisely why Chen Nan couldn’t calm his mind.

”No matter how much you worry, it’s useless. Just relax a bit!”

Li Xiao spoke gently, her slender and delicate fingers caressed Chen Nan’s neck and landed on his chest, beginning to unbutton his clothes.

Her gestures weren’t frivolous; she merely wanted to divert Chen Nan’s attention and make him feel even slightly better.

Initially, Chen Nan had no mood for this and wanted to refuse, but considering if he did, how would Li Xiao feel in her heart? As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder; they hadn’t seen each other for two years. If she took the initiative and he still refused, she might mistakenly assume he had changed his heart.

Thus Chen Nan said nothing but didn’t respond; he honestly wasn’t in the mood for it.

After undressing Chen Nan, Li Xiao also loosened her clothes, her soft body closely pressed against his; despite Chen Nan’s bad mood, her actions stirred his desire.

He embraced Li Xiao’s neck and kissed her soft lips.

Seeing Chen Nan overcoming his anxious emotions, Li Xiao’s spirits lifted; she feigned push-and-pull, entwined with Chen Nan.

The room was filled with romance, the evocative moans became the sole melody.

Once the storm subsided, the two embraced and slept.

Logically, Chen Nan should have slept till dawn, but close to the third watch, a deafening drum sound erupted from outside the inn, accompanied by chaotic noise.

Both Chen Nan and Li Xiao awoke instantly, exchanged a glance, quickly dressed and approached the window.

Outside the inn, the demon soldiers were neatly arrayed, marching in orderly steps, each wielding weapons such as knives, swords, and spears, with dedicated drummers beating drums, heading eastward.

Chen Nan was puzzled, unsure of what these demon soldiers intended to do.

But at that moment, the drummers began shouting, ”Tonight at the third watch, a Bird Clan traitor will be executed outside the Meridian Gate. Those awake hurry outside to watch!”

Chen Nan was surprised, traitor execution?

This rule of the Demon Clan was indeed novel; executing someone in the dead of night at the third watch.

According to the ancient rules of the mortal world, executions were generally held at noon, as the sun was most potent then, able to subdue all ghostly entities.

Chen Nan had never heard of executions like those of the Demon Clan at night.

Initially, Chen Nan had no interest in watching such events, but at that moment, a demon soldier-led iron prison car rolled past the inn, shocking him even more when he saw the traitor inside it.
