Martial Cultivator-Novel

As Chen Chao stabbed into the middle-aged daoist nun's body again and again, the vitality of this middle-aged daoist nun, who was renowned in the foreign lands, began to rapidly flow away. However, even in her final moments, she stared at Chen Chao fixedly, with a look of disbelief.

After sthought, Chen Chao suddenly said, "After you die, the sect behind you will surely seek revenge for you. But don't worry, I'll keep on living and eventually completely destroy the sect behind you, just like the SublBright Sect."

After saying these words, Chen Chao withdrew his saber and wiped it on the middle-aged daoist nun's robe. Only then did the middle-aged daoist nun exhale her last breath and fall heavily to the ground just like that.

After dealing with the middle-aged daoist nun, Chen Chao then turned his head and glanced over.

After the middle-aged daoist nun completely stopped breathing, the stone figure first froze, and then the gathered pieces of stone fell to the ground. The flying swords at this moment also flew back to Xie Nandu's side, hovering quietly.

Xie Nandu slowly stood up. After collecting those flying swords, she spat out a mouthful of coagulated blood, her complexion improving slightly.

Chen Chao walked over and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Xie Nandu rolled her eyes, "Do you think I'm alright?"

No matter how talented Xie Nandu was, she was still two realms apart from that middle-aged daoist nun. Just persevering for 15 minutes had already meant pulling out all of her trump cards. If one were to say she could walk away unscathed, it would truly be a fantasy

Chen Chao scratched his head awkwardly, about to speak, but Xie Nandu already took the initiative to say, "No need to say it, you oweagain."

Chen Chao grunted in agreement, feeling a bit depressed, "How many times do I owe you now?"

Xie Nandu stared at him and asked, "Then why don't you settle it all at once?"

Chen Chao frowned, "Are you trying to getkilled?"

Xie Nandu snorted coldly, no longer bothering with this guy. Instead, she looked around. The battle between the two of them had destroyed most of the maple trees on the mountain. When autumn arrived, although there would still be the beautiful sight of red maples, everyone knew it would not be as magnificent as last year.

"Hurry up and leave. If people find out you're the culprit, you can expect people to block your front door and curse you."

Xie Nandu took a step forward weakly, her body almost giving way. But fortunately, she managed to grab hold of a surviving maple tree in an instant, preventing herself from falling.

Chen Chao was still talking to himself, "Either way, I'm hiding in your courtyard. They probably wouldn't dare to block your front door and curse, right? After all, even if they don't giveface, wouldn't they have to give face to the Dean?"

Only after saying this, did Chen Chao notice Xie Nandu leaning against the maple tree weakly, looking at him speechlessly.

"Can't walk anymore?" Chen Chao asked probingly. However, as he took a few steps forward, his wounds were aggravated, causing him to grimace in pain.

Xie Nandu frowned, "You're not much better yourself."

Chen Chao smiled, feeling a bit relieved after circulating the white mist within him for a while. He walked over and took the initiative to ask, "Why don't I carry you?"

Xie Nandu looked at Chen Chao oddly.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm an honest person."

Chen Chao had an honest look.

Xie Nandu thought about it and said, "Cover."

Chen Chao walked over obediently.

"Turn around."

Chen Chao gave an "oh" and turned around obediently, his back facing Xie Nandu.

"Squat down."

Xie Nandu's voice was rather helpless.

Chen Chao squatted down obediently.

Then there was a slight chill at the back of his neck as Xie Nandu's arms wrapped around him. Soon, her entire body pressed against Chen Chao's back. Feeling the warmth behind him, Chen Chao's whole body stiffened abruptly, almost not standing up.

After standing up, he did not know where he should place his hands.

"Mhm?"

Xie Nandu leaned against Chen Chao's back, smelling the faint scent of blood and sweat emanating from him. These two scents intertwined, forming a very special smell. It was not pleasant, but for sreason, Xie Nandu did not find it too unpleasant; she even thought it was somewhat pleasant.

What a strange thing.

Chen Chao cautiously placed his hands on the sides of Xie Nandu's thighs, then exhaled a breath, coming back to his senses. He glanced at the body of the middle-aged daoist nun and changed the subject, asking, "Should we find a place to bury her?"

Xie Nandu's voice sounded behind his head, not loud, but Chen Chao could even feel the breath between her mouth and nose. It was a bit ticklish, but he was too embarrassed to say.

"Do you still have strength right now?"

Xie Nandu's voice remained soft. At this moment, Chen Chao could not see Xie Nandu's face, or else he would have noticed that the cheeks of this genius daughter from the Xie Family were slightly flushed, which looked very attractive.

Chen Chao shook his head. "Forget it, let this old hag's corpse rot in the wilderness. Damn it, I'm not kind-hearted."

Xie Nandu took the opportunity to say, "Aren't you a good person?"

Chen Chao explained seriously, "There's a difference between being a good person and being a pushover."

Xie Nandu responded with an "oh" and fell silent.

After descending the mountain, neither of them had the strength to speak. Xie Nandu had already been seriously injured while contending with the middle-aged daoist nun's spell using nine flying swords. Upon returning to the academy, it was unclear how long it would take for her injuries to heal. It could be said that for Chen Chao's sake, this genius girl from the academy had already sacrificed too much. This was a potentially fatal matter, it was not something that could be easily resolved.

Chen Chao's injuries were actually much lighter. His body was tough, and his cultivation realm was higher than Xie Nandu's. Although he faced the middle-aged daoist nun head-on, it was not as difficult for him as it was for Xie Nandu.

After descending the mountain, it did not take long for the two of them to reach the city gate. The guards at the city gate were all subordinates of the Left Guard. Seeing Chen Chao, they naturally did not stop him. Towards this deputy commander of the Left Guard, they held half respect and half fear, especially since the incident where Chen Chao seized the official seal. He had directly gone on a killing spree.

However, they could not help but take a few more glances at Xie Nandu who was on Chen Chao's back. They were not fools, they could quickly guess that the woman Chen Chao was carrying on his back was none other than the academy's genius daughter of the Xie Family.

But they did not dare to inquire why the two of them were swaggering through the streets like this.

Walking in the Divine Capital, Chen Chao quickly attracted countless glances, but it was evident that these people's eyes were not on Chen Chao himself, but on Xie Nandu on his back. This genius girl from the academy was exceptionally beautiful and naturally drew many people's attention.

However, even those who wanted to approach hesitated when they saw the saber hanging at Chen Chao's waist.

In the Divine Capital where there were high officials and nobles everywhere, how could someone who could have a woman like that accompany him be an ordinary civilian?

Who knows, if they provoked him today, a group of people might show up at their door tomorrow.

So, the journey went smoothly without any hindrance.

But as they approached the South Lake, Chen Chao finally spoke up. "When we arrive at the academy later, I reckon many people's hearts will be broken."

Xie Nandu remained silent. Actually, after entering the city, they could have easily found a carriage to take them to the academy, but Chen Chao did not bring this up, so she did not say anything either.

She leaned against Chen Chao's back, feeling his body warmth, which brought her scomfort.

She rarely experienced this kind of feeling, especially since coming to the Divine Capital.Thɪs chapter is updated by novelenglish.net or Firᴇ(.)nᴇt
