Dashing Student-Chapter 1183: Assassin Xie Xiao

Chen Nan left, but before leaving, he called Lin Jian over and handed him a storage bag.

"You just woke up. Inside are some Spirit Stones and Elixirs, for you to cultivate. Your sister has suffered too much over the years, now it’s your turn to protect her."

Lin Jian used his Divine Sense to scan the inside of the storage bag and was immediately stunned. Besides tens of millions of Low-grade Spirit Stones, it also contained all kinds of Elixirs. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

There were even several Seventh Grade Spiritual Artifacts, both offensive and defensive, not to mention some Sixth Grade Magic and secret techniques.

These resources were enough to turn an averagely talented Cultivator into a genius!

Lin Jian was extremely excited; he grasped Chen Nan’s hand tightly, exclaiming, "Brother-in-law, from now on, you’re my real brother. We’ll handle each other our own way. I’ll call you brother, and you call me brother-in-law..."

"Hmm?" Chen Nan always felt that something was off with this address, but he shook his head and didn’t think further, "Just take good care of your sister."

Lin Jian’s gaze was as determined as iron, thumping his chest loudly: "Brother-in-law, don’t worry, if you come back and find my sister has lost even a single hair, it’s my failure as a brother!"

"Good."

Chen Nan nodded with satisfaction, whispered a few words to Lin Rou, then turned to leave, heading straight for the address she had given him.

Some scores need to be settled properly.

Lin Rou put away her longing and worries and returned to Forget Worry Inn. From that day, the innkeeper of Forget Worry Inn changed from being frivolous to icy cold.

If anyone dared to joke with her, Lin Jian would appear like a vicious dog, ready to bite anyone who dared.

...

Qing Province.

In a small outpost under Yama Hall, Xie Xiao came, routinely inquiring about the whereabouts of Chen Nan. This process had been going on for a long time.

But today also disappointed him. Chen Nan seemed to have vanished into thin air, with no news at all, making him frustrated without a way to vent.

"You little bastard, you’ve ruined my reputation. If I don’t kill you, I swear I won’t be human!" Xie Xiao silently vowed in his heart, his mind twisted with darkness, and his expression turned ferocious.

Back then, to make a name for himself, he targeted the somewhat famous Chen Nan. To be on the safe side, he even exchanged his Merit for a sword with remnants of the Power of Laws.

Supposedly, with a strike from this sword, Chen Nan should have been obliterated. So when Xie Xiao returned safely after the mission, having done it beautifully, he became a sought-after Assassin.

He even stood to be promoted to an A-level Killer in Yama Hall, all things he had dreamed of.

But unfortunately, when news of Chen Nan reappeared, it felt like he had fallen from heaven into Hell. Yama Hall not only revoked their previous rewards but also regarded him as a disgrace.

During that time, no matter where he went, he could hear mockery from his peers.

So Xie Xiao was going mad. He was desperate to find Chen Nan and kill him again to prove he hadn’t been faking, but he never succeeded.

The resentful Xie Xiao had a gloomy expression, even the person in charge of the outpost was somewhat afraid, but still reminded him: "Master, it’s best to restrain yourself lately. I heard you’ve already attracted the attention of Righteous Cultivators."

Discussing what Xie Xiao had been up to recently, even the outpost in charge had contempt for him. Unable to find Chen Nan, he vented his anger on ordinary people without cultivation.

Especially women with children; several had already died at Xie Xiao’s hands. It’s an undeniably perverse pastime.

It’s an unwritten rule in the Cultivation World that those with cultivation must not harm ordinary people; it’s considered disgraceful. Even Demon Cultivators who attack ordinary people would be hunted by Righteous Cultivators.

The most critical concern was that Xie Xiao had been lingering here for quite some time, venting through killings in nearby towns. If he attracted Righteous Cultivators, it might expose their outpost.

"Mind your own business!" Xie Xiao replied harshly, "If I don’t find any news about Chen Nan, I’ll kill you all the same!"

The outpost in charge immediately fell silent, not daring to say anything more. After all, Xie Xiao was a B-level Assassin, with many privileges in Yama Hall.

After leaving the outpost, Xie Xiao exuded a chilling aura, causing passersby to steer clear of him. At this moment, he spotted a young woman on the road.

The young woman was just an ordinary person, carrying a basket while holding the hand of a little boy. Although she was quite ordinary, Xie Xiao suddenly felt a surge of evil fire.

Having accumulated so much pent-up frustration recently, he had sought various means to vent, especially using such young women, who didn’t dare resist for the sake of their children.

When killing them, seeing the pain, confusion, and unwillingness on their faces fulfilled Xie Xiao’s perverse desires.

Without hesitation, he turned and followed the young woman to an ordinary residence.

The young woman sensed someone following them, emanating a terrifying aura, causing her to panic until she felt relieved upon reaching her doorstep.

She opened the door and went inside, about to close it when a hand suddenly grabbed the door frame, forcing it open.

The young woman showed a frightened expression, instinctively shielding her child in her arms, stepping back in terror: "What... what do you want?!"

"What do I want? You ants should feel honored to please me, yet you dare question me?"

Xie Xiao sneered, reaching towards the void ahead. The child in the young woman’s arms was directly pulled over, held by the throat.

Upon realizing the person in front was a Cultivator, the young woman’s face turned to despair. She quickly knelt and pleaded incessantly: "Immortal Master, please spare my child..."

Xie Xiao’s mouth twisted into a smirk, beckoning her with a finger: "Very well, if you want me to spare this little cub, you must fully submit to me, understand?"

"Now, stand up and take off your clothes!"

The young woman trembled, but against a Cultivator, she was powerless. Watching her child struggle in Xie Xiao’s grip, she slowly stood up, beginning to undo her clothes piece by piece.

"Why so slow?"

Xie Xiao shouted impatiently, casually tossing the child aside. As a Cultivator, even holding back, such a throw could kill the child.

The young woman’s eyes widened in helplessness, screaming sharply, "No!"

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared, catching the child who had been thrown, none other than the hurriedly arrived Chen Nan.

"To harm mortals, you truly are a beast worse than a pig or dog!"
