Dashing Student-Chapter 456 - , Shocking Everyone

Chen Nan had no intention of getting involved in the Suoming Sect’s internal strife.

After all, he was just an outsider.

But.

There are times, there are things, that are beyond his control.

Given the current situation, he had to act.

When Wu Yuanchun heard Chen Nan’s words, he couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh: "You ignorant fool, what do you think you are? Daring to spout such nonsense here?"

"Brother Yang, quickly slay this arrogant piece of trash!"

He had already found Chen Nan extremely disagreeable.

If it weren’t for him, he himself wouldn’t have been seriously injured, nor would he have had to ask Yang Ji for help.

Yang Ji glanced at Chen Nan, a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

He tapped his walking stick on the ground again, and with a playful tone said: "Your vitality is quite robust, perfect for nourishing my Gu Insects!"

Before the words had finished.

From beneath his large black cloak surged a multitude of various Gu Insects, including huge venomous spiders, black hairy worms bristling with spikes, and moths flickering with a ghostly green glow, all sweeping towards Chen Nan like a storm.

Wherever these Gu Insects passed, the ground was corroded into small pits and divots, emanating a pungent smell.

The atmosphere on the scene became even more oppressively heavy, almost giving the illusion of suffocation.

Witnessing this scene.

Chen Nan not only did not show panic, but the corners of his mouth even curled into a slight, disdainful smile.

As if what he faced was not a swarm of ferocious, foul-smelling Gu Insects, but a group of adorable creatures...

"Immobilize!"

He decisively commanded the King of Ten Thousand Gu within his body.

In an instant, the Gu Insects that were initially surging towards Chen Nan seemed to be hit with an immobilization spell, pausing momentarily in mid-air.

The scene turned so bizarre, it gave the impression that time had stood still.

Yang Ji’s brow furrowed tightly, utterly clueless as to why this was happening.

Without time to think, he formed a gesture with one hand, continuing to issue commands, wanting the Gu Insects to consume Chen Nan’s flesh.

The next moment.

The Gu Insects began to tremble violently, and buzzing sounds once again filled the air.

However.

This time, they reversed direction, like a surging tide, to the horror of the onlookers, they swarmed towards Yang Ji instead.

Yang Ji’s eyes widened in disbelief: "How... How is this possible?"

He tried to use his walking stick to command the Gu Insects to stop, but they completely ignored his control and continued to furiously pounce on him.

Although he was the one who cultivated these Gu Insects, and he did not fear their venom,

the sheer number of Gu Insects biting him still gave him a sensation worse than death.

He emitted a miserable cry, his body rolling incessantly on the ground, in a vain attempt to crush the out-of-control Gu Insects on him.

Wu Yuanchun was also stunned; he had not expected the situation to suddenly take such a drastic turn: "Brother Yang, what on earth is happening? Think of something fas—"

Before he could finish his sentence, a swarm of Gu Insects had targeted Wu Yuanchun, flying over under his horrified gaze, enveloping his whole person and savagely tearing at his flesh.

Wu Yuanchun was engulfed by Gu Insects, screaming like a slaughtered pig in an instant, the sound piercing the night sky and chilling to the bone.

He struggled desperately among the swarm of Gu Insects, wildly swinging his long knife, but it was all in vain; each swing only managed to flick away a few Gu Insects, while more clung onto him like maggots on bones, refusing to let go.

This scene deeply shocked everyone.

Because they had no idea why the situation had suddenly reversed.

Even with all their wits about them, they couldn’t understand why the Gu Insects bred by Yang Ji were frenziedly tearing him apart.

Could these Gu Insects not distinguish between master and enemy?

Wait!

Could all this have something to do with Chen Nan?

At that thought, everyone turned to look at Chen Nan simultaneously, their eyes revealing an inexplicable fear.

Because this guy had just said one thing ["It seems it’s time for Daoist to take action again!"].

Although they didn’t know why Yang Ji’s carefully nurtured Gu Insects were backfiring on him, one thing was clear: this matter was definitely closely related to Chen Nan.

Yang Ji rolled on the ground, trying to shake off the Gu Insects on him with his Inner Strength, but those Gu Insects seemed to be driven by a mysterious force, stubbornly clinging onto him.

His face was full of pain and despair; his previous arrogance and dignity had long since vanished.

"Who… who exactly are you? How can you control my Gu Insects?" Yang Ji spoke with difficulty, his voice filled with unwillingness and confusion.

A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Chen Nan’s mouth: "Because, I also have a Gu Insect inside my body!"

As he spoke.

The King of Ten Thousand Gu flew out from his body, the blood-red Gu Insect emitting a red glow in the darkness, its blood-red wings exuding a mystical and eerie aura.

The moment the King of Ten Thousand Gu appeared, everyone at the scene felt an intense sense of oppression; the surrounding Gu Insects trembled with fear, as if unable to bear this terrifying pressure.

Shock was evident in the eyes of Qing Niao, Chu Qi, and the others.

Clearly.

They hadn’t expected Chen Nan to be not only powerful but also cultivating a Gu Insect.

Yang Ji’s eyes trembled violently, staring fixedly at the Gu Insect released by Chen Nan.

At this moment, he seemed to have completely forgotten the excruciating pain of being bitten by his own nurtured Gu Insects, his heart filled with boundless fear, which like a surging tide, overwhelmed him instantly.

"Wu Mazi is what to you?" His voice trembled as he forced these words through clenched teeth, revealing indescribable shock and unease.

He recognized the origin of this Gu Insect; it was the infamous Gu Master Wu Mazi from the Miao Border, who had cultivated this unique Gu Insect with his own essence blood.

Rumors in the martial world claimed that once this Gu Insect grew wings, it would evolve into the King of Ten Thousand Gu, possessing the terrifying power to control all Gu Insects between heaven and earth, its renown making countless Gu Masters both revere and envy.

Surprise crossed Chen Nan’s face; he hadn’t expected Yang Ji to know of his master Wu Mazi. After a brief moment of astonishment, he opened his mouth slowly, his voice calm as he said, "Wu Mazi is my master!"

"Hahaha!" Yang Ji suddenly threw his head back and laughed uproariously, his laughter interlaced with intense anger and profound sorrow.

"My entire life, Yang Ji, I’ve devotedly practiced Gu Technique in solitude, pursuing the supreme realm of Gu Dao, daring to use my body as a vessel and risking my life in Cultivating Gu."

"For decades, all the hardships and trials I’ve endured were for the sake of one day surpassing Wu Mazi."

His laughter gradually turned into sobs, his eyes full of unwillingness and despair.

"But who could have imagined, in this cruel twist of fate, in the end, I am still no match for Wu Mazi."

"All my efforts, all my sacrifices, at this moment, all turned into nothingness!"

"Such is life, such is destiny!"

"Such is life… such is destiny…" He coughed up a mouthful of blood, closed his eyes, and died.
