Chapter 35: Misery
Chen Nan was puzzled by the old demon's actions, he didn't understand why this old man would show up to build his confidence in martial arts cultivation. He had always thought that the old demon had designs on him, but now that it seemed as if the old man was helping him and had no malicious intent, he was perplexed.
The old demon's Xuan Gong was so powerful that he disappeared in thin air in only four steps. Chen Nan was shocked by what he saw, I'm afraid that if a martial artist's cultivation reached this level, he could really run rampant in the world
When Chen Nan returned to the City of Freedom, everyone in the streets and alleys were talking about the Ancient God's Relic Treasure, but of course, these things had lost their original appearance in the mouths of the common people, and had changed into a godly thing.
When Chen Nan was eating at a restaurant, he overheard a conversation between two people in the elegant room.
"What to do with this God Bone, so many people saw us snatch it, although the vast majority of people aspire to the Ancient God's Relic Treasure, we can't rule out the possibility that someone will hit on it."
"Why don't we sell it? We can get the money and get rid of the disaster."
"We can't sell it to anyone, we can't publicize it, the more people know about it, the more dangerous we are."
The two people in the room fell into silence.
Chen Nan's heart stirred, he knew the value of the Divine Bone, a few days ago the Little Princess had swindled 50,000 gold coins from the Vice President of the Divine Wind Academy, this hand bone was definitely still worth that price. Although he had the opportunity to take it last night, he didn't dare to move it, he was afraid of incurring the trouble of killing himself.
Chen Nan did some calculations while walking towards the elegant room.
The two people in the room were startled when they heard the knock on the door, and both pulled out the swords in their belts before opening the door.
Cinnan laughed, "Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions."
The two men in the house had blond hair and blue eyes and were in their forties, one was tall and sturdy, the other was on the shorter side but looked sturdy, both of them were dressed as western warriors, and each of them held a huge western-style sword in their hands.
They were full of hostility towards Chen Nan, and each of them was filled with a powerful force that could erupt at any time.
The tall samurai said, ''You eavesdropped on our conversation''
With a smile on his face, Chen Nan said, "Relax, I really have no ill intentions. I did hear your conversation, but it wasn't eavesdropping, didn't you guys want to sell that God Bone, I want to buy it."
The two warriors' complexions gradually eased, putting down the huge swords in their hands and letting Chen Nan inside.
Tatsunami complimented, ''The two of you are really skillful, you actually captured the God Bone in the hands of thousands of people, I admire you''
The short samurai said, "The true masters are all searching for that mysterious treasure, otherwise how could we obtain it with our cultivation."
Chen Nan could already tell that both of them were first rank experts, but he didn't reveal it for fear that they would become wary.
The tall warrior said, "How much gold do you want to offer for the Divine Bone in our hands?
Chen Nan said, "Ten thousand gold coins."
"No, we will never sell it at this price, you can go." The two western warriors flatly refused.
Tatsunami said, "The price is negotiable, how much gold coins do you want to sell it for?"
The two western warriors whispered for a while and said, "Fifty thousand gold coins."
"My god, you guys are robbing money, it's too expensive."
The short samurai said, "This is already the lowest price."
Chen Nan said, "Thirty thousand gold coins, I'll buy it."
"We don't want to bargain, a single price of fifty thousand gold coins." The two western warriors had a resolute look on their faces.
Seeing that the two had no room for negotiation, Chen Nan finally bought the Divine Bone for 50,000 gold coins, and he decided to go to the Divine Wind Academy to roam around and beat up that Vice Dean.
After paying the money he was penniless, not only did he spend over 40,000 gold coins from the little princess, he also 'contributed' all the money he had on him.
After receiving the golden ticket, the two western warriors took out the God Bone from their parcels and handed it to Chen Nan, before leaving in a hurry.
Cinnan wrapped the Divine Bone from a new package and rushed towards the Divine Wind Academy.
When he walked through the gates of the academy, he was apprehensive for fear of meeting the Eastern Phoenix and the Little Princess, but fortunately, there was no such coincidence as a 'narrow road between enemies'.
However, he met a familiar person, to be exact, someone who looked familiar, it was the sexy, hot blonde beauty who was among the freshmen admitted a few days ago. Under the blonde beauty's boundless charms that day, all the lecherous wolves present had swallowed hard, causing Chen Nan to still remember it vividly.
Seeing the blonde beauty again, he still surged with a feeling of amazement as the blonde beauty was walking from the opposite side, her hot body curling and swaying.
She blinked suspiciously as she passed by Chen Nan's side before suddenly stopping and saying, ''You are Little Trouble's brother scum''
Chen Nan cried and laughed, the blonde beauty actually called him that.
''Hey, pretty girl, do we know each other''
The blonde beauty laughed and said, "All the freshmen saw you molesting the Magic Department's genius beauty, Oriental Phoenix, that day, so you can't even think about not letting people recognize you. You are really bold, you actually dare to run here, don't you know that a lot of boys in the academy are looking for you everywhere.''
Chen Nan had a chill, secretly sighing that the charm of the Oriental Phoenix was really amazing, he looked to the left and right and whispered, "It's not that exaggerated, right?"
The blonde beauty said, "Try shouting out that the scum are here, and a large number of people will surely appear in front of your eyes immediately. But it's a good thing that there aren't a lot of guys who have seen your face, or else someone would have come up to you long ago."
Chen Nan's face appeared embarrassed, not realizing that he had really become a veritable scum that everyone shouted at.
The blonde beauty laughed, "Your sister, Little Trouble, is even more famous, not only did she pull off a large beard from the vice dean, but she also extorted 50,000 gold coins from him, she's simply the idol of all the students at Divine Wind Academy. Now you siblings are celebrities here, almost no one knows about you."
Chen Nan had a wicked chill, this 'celebrity' of his was practically the public enemy of all the boys, he sheepishly glanced around the neighborhood, luckily no one was hostile to him.
"May I ask, pretty lady, where the vice dean's office is?"
"Aren't you looking for your sister she and the Eastern Phoenix live next door to me, I'll go get her for you."
Chen Nan's face turned green when he heard that, if he messed with those two women, he would be in deep shit, he hurriedly said, "Don't, don't ever go and call them, just tell me where the vice dean is."
The blonde beauty told him where the vice dean's office was, before smiling and turning to leave.
Cinnan walked out a few steps, then turned back, "Hey, pretty girl you did me a favor, I haven't had time to ask your name yet"
"Ruth."
Chen Nan suddenly saw that Ruth smiled a little differently when she turned her head, he was a little worried and shouted, "Ruth mustn't tell my sister that I've arrived here."
"Got it."
Following the route pointed out by Ruth, he quickly arrived at the vice dean's office, he was just about to knock on the door when the vice dean's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Cinnan secretly sighed that the vice dean was really good at kung fu, he had already put his footsteps to the lightest degree, but he didn't expect that he was still detected by the old man inside.
He pushed the door and entered, the vice dean looked at him and said with a smile: "Young man kung fu is good ah, do you want to see me for something, do you want to join the divine wind academy"
"Sir Dean this is not the first time we have met, you and I are already considered acquaintances, I will say what I have to say. To tell you the truth, I want to do business with you this time."
"Oh, you want to do business with me, just what kind of business is it" the vice dean had an unperturbed look on his face, as he said this he took a small sip from his teacup.
"I want to sell you a God Bone."
"Pff" hearing this, the vice dean spat out the tea that he had just drank into his mouth, making a mess on the desk in front of him, he stood up in a flash, no longer having the steady look that he had a moment ago, and said sharply, "You have a God Bone."
Chen Nan unhurriedly sat down in front of the vice dean's desk, poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip, saying, "Yes."
The vice dean asked anxiously, "Which part of the divine bone is it"
"It's a left hand bone."
"What a great haha," the vice dean laughed happily.
Chen Nan took a sip of water and said, "Lord Dean, this divine bone is still mine, there's no need for you to be so happy, right?"
Realizing that he had lost his temper, the Vice Dean coughed and sat down on the reclining chair again. He closed his eyes and contemplated for a while, and a smiling demeanor appeared on his face again.
However, Chen Nan felt that this smile was full of treachery no matter how he looked at it, and he muttered in his heart.
An amiable smile appeared on the Vice Dean's face as he said, "How has Chen Nan been doing lately?"
"Pfft" Chen Nan sprayed the tea in his mouth onto the desk in front of him, making the messy desk even dirtier.
"What's wrong with the young man, don't get excited"
How could Chen Nan not expect the vice dean to call out his name, he looked at the smiling old man in front of him in shock.
"You've recognized the wrong person, my name is not Chen Nan."
"Hehe, picking a second-order Flying Dragon Knight with a gun and shooting a fourth-order dragon with an arrow, young man is marvelous."
Chen Nan stabilized his mind and said, "I'm here to do business with you, I don't want to listen to your boring stuff."
The Vice Dean laughed, "Fine, let me inspect the goods first."
Chen Nan opened the package and took out the Divine Bone that was emitting a faint glow. The vice dean took it and looked at it carefully, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes as he said, ''Not bad, it's indeed the left hand bone of an ancient god, could it be that you have found the leftover treasure of an ancient god''
Chen Nan said: ''The whereabouts of the Ancient God's relic is still unknown, how could I have gotten it''
The Vice President said, "Thank you for bringing this God's bone to the Divine Wind Academy, I thank you on behalf of all the teachers and students of the entire academy."
Chen Nan felt that something was wrong, he interrupted the vice dean and said: ''Why thank me I'm not giving it to you for free, the price is 100,000 gold coins, I don't want to haggle.'' He showed a resolute look.
The vice dean laughed, "Young man, we have gotten some news about you, if we spread it out, I think many people will be interested in you."
"What news?"
"I heard that not too long ago, a young man was furious for the red color, holding the Hou Yi bow and causing havoc in the imperial capital of Chu, not only intimidating the emperor of Chu, but also taking the young princess of Chu captive"
"Enough, how do you know so much about it? Chu has blocked the news."
"Oh, we also got the news in the past two days, Chu's secrecy is indeed very tight, but the Divine Wind Academy's disciples are spread all over the world, any wind blowing on the continent will eventually reach here."
Chen Nan looked at the unchanging hateful smile on the vice dean's face, he really wanted to whack him, he didn't move and said: ''What do you want''
The Vice Dean laughed, "Don't worry, we won't talk nonsense, you've already given us the Divine Bone, we can't thank you enough, we'll definitely keep it a secret for you."
Chen Nan shouted, "Who gave you the Divine Bone? This is naked robbery."
The Vice Dean smiled and said, ''Even though Chu didn't publicize this matter for various reasons and didn't place a mandatory kill order on you, if someone captured you and gave it to them, I think they would be very happy. The City of Sin is now in flames, there are so many cultivators gathered here, if your matter is publicized in a big way, there will definitely be a large number of people who will frantically hunt you down and kill you in exchange for a high ranking position in the Chu Kingdom.''
A vicious chill ran through Chen Nan's body after hearing this, this scenario was terrifying to think about.
The Vice Dean said, "Thank you for bringing this divine bone to the Divine Wind Academy, I thank you on behalf of all the teachers and students of the entire academy."
"Shut up old man, when did I say I gave you the God Bone?"
"Oh, do you really want to fight thousands of people alone admirably, admirably"
Chen Nan now really wanted to press the vice dean to the ground and kick him hard a few times, he looked at this old man with a hateful smile on his face and said: ''Dead old man you guys I won't give you guys this divine bone even if I am being chased by people.''
The vice dean laughed, "Young man don't get excited, we won't take your divine bone for nothing."
"How much are you going to pay?"
"How vulgar to mention money."
"You and I don't mind vulgarity, I paid fifty thousand gold coins for this piece of broken bone."
"Thank you for bringing this bone to Kamikaze Academy. On behalf of all the teachers and students, I thank you."
"Old man, why don't you say something new, why do you always say this?"
The vice dean coughed and said, "Ahem, I won't let you suffer, after you hand over the God Bone to the Kamikaze Academy, we guarantee that we won't let any country or organization arrest you in Sin City."
"Sin City is not your home, can you keep your words?"
The Vice President said, "I am now speaking on behalf of the Divine Wind Academy, the academy has a significant position in Sin City, and the head of the academy is also one of the city lords of Sin City, so a decision like this can still be made. If we give you such a promise, we'll keep you safe and sound in Sin City.''
Chen Nan cursed the vice dean in his heart for being treacherous and shameless, Chu hadn't wanted or hunted him down until now, so what other country or organization would be unfavorable to him. Unless the Vice Dean deliberately told his matter to the cultivators who were here searching for the Ancient God's Relic Treasure, he was not in danger for the time being.
The Vice Dean had a smile on his face as he said, ''What do you think?''
Chen Nan actually didn't care much about the money, everything today was just a whim, but he didn't expect to be blackmailed by this treacherous, hateful old man, which made him unusually depressed.
"Damn old man you are simply a villain, bandit, robber, and asshole."
"Thank you for bringing this Divine Bone to the Divine Wind Academy, on behalf of all the teachers and students in the academy, I thank you"
"Shut up dead old man, don't repeat that again, I'm getting the urge to kill someone Fifty thousand gold coins, to serve the Divine Wind Academy for free, I'm crying."
The vice dean said, "Young man I can see that you seem to be a bit short on cash right now, I'll lend you a thousand gold coins privately first, remember to pay me back quickly" he said as he took out a golden ticket and handed it to Chen Nan.
Chen Nan snatched it and said: "Dead old man, may I ask your name".
"Oh, no need to be polite, your name is Li."
Chen Nan slapped the table hard and let go of his throat to curse loudly, "Old man Li, I xxxxxxxx, surname Li, I xxxxxxxxxx" and then he flung the door open and left.
When he stepped into the courtyard for a moment froze, only to see the courtyard surrounded by a large group of women, with a surprised look at him, the first two people is the little princess and the eastern phoenix, in addition there are many boys are rushing to here.
"Wow, small trouble your brother is very handsome ah, just now he actually scolded the vice dean, simply cool to the extreme."
"Yeah, you pulled off a big beard from the vice dean and your brother yelled at him, you siblings are simply our idols."
The little princess was furious and shouted, "I said that scum is not my brother, I have no relationship with him."
"You gave him all your 50,000 gold coins and you still say you have no relationship."
"It was that scum who snatched it from me."
Chen Nan had a headache, he could no longer hear what those problematic girls were saying, looking at the Little Princess's terrifying eyes and the Oriental Phoenix's murderous gaze, as well as the beastly gleam in the eyes of quite a few of the boys, he was flooded with a sense of powerlessness.
He retracted the foot that had stepped into the courtyard and quickly retreated back to the vice dean's house.
"Hey, young man, why are you back again, do you want to pay me back?"
"Dead old man don't pretend, I'm trapped here by the students of your academy, you quickly think of something."
The vice dean stood up unhurriedly, he had his usual smile on his face and said, "I'll go take a look."
After coming to the courtyard and seeing the little princess, the vice dean unconsciously stroked his uneven beard, the students in the courtyard stifled their laughter and looked at him.
"Why are you all gathered here?"
All the other students were in awe of the vice dean, but the little princess looked like she didn't care, she exclaimed, "Dean, that scum behind you robbed me of 50,000 gold coins, and he even molested me."
Just as she said this, she was covered by the Eastern Phoenix.
The vice dean said: ''Really, I have some things to deal with right now, I don't have time to help you guys solve your problems, wait for me to come back.'' Saying that, the vice dean walked through the crowd and left.
Cinnan was so angry that he really wanted to go crazy, this damnable old man actually left him here without caring.
"Hey, dead old man come back, I didn't just scold you a few times, dead old man."
At this time, Dongfang Phoenix released her hand over the little princess's mouth and shouted at Chen Nan: "Scum, I'll see where you're going to run away this time."
The courtyard was full of people who pressed towards Chen Nan, the girls had a teasing look on their faces, the boys were all vicious and fierce.
Chen Nan immediately changed color, among these people, excluding those royal grandchildren and noble daughters, the rest of them were all rank experts, if they all attacked him, his miserable result could be imagined.
"Cough, Miss Dongfang, I think we have some misunderstanding, last time."
The little princess called out from the side, "Last time you molested Sister Phoenix, I saw it from the side."
Chen Nan really wanted to severely beat her up at this moment. The Eastern Phoenix once again covered the little princess's mouth, and those boys next to her were about to spit fire in their eyes. Cinnan knew that it was useless to say anything, he turned around and ran into the vice dean's room, kicked open the back window and jumped out, and then quickly ran in that direction towards the academy's main gate.
A group of people were in hot pursuit, after Chen Nan ran out a long distance, he peeked his eyes to the back, and was immediately startled, only to see the Eastern Phoenix and seven or eight girls performing the Wind Soaring Technique rapidly flying towards him.
"Magicians are really troublesome."
In the blink of an eye, those female magicians chased him to his back, and lightning, wind blades, and flames of all kinds of magical attacks poured down on him.
Chen Nan dodged left and right, but the speed of his feet remained unchanged, still darting forward. He knew that the group of wolf-like boys behind him were much more terrifying than these female magicians, if he was surrounded by them he would be torn apart, he didn't dare to slow down even if he had to take a few magic attacks.
The Eastern Phoenix gritted its teeth and cast magic, causing Chen Nan to suffer.
At this time, the Little Princess flew up quickly from the back with her Little Jade, she was afraid that the world was in chaos, and while commanding Little Jade to perform magic attacks on Chen Nan, she shouted at the people in front, "Catch that person in front, he's the scum that molested Sister Phoenix of the East last time."
At this time, both Cinnan and the Eastern Phoenix had a gripping feeling, and were simply annoyed to the extreme at the abominable little princess.
Such a big commotion attracted many students within the Divine Wind Academy to look at them sideways, and many of them later joined the ranks of beating up the scum. This time, Chen Nan was even more miserable, with a large number of martial artists peddling behind his ass, and many magicians bombarding him furiously above his head.
If it wasn't for the fact that these magicians were afraid of damaging the academy's buildings and injuring innocents, Chen Nan would have been blasted to the ground long ago. Even so he felt a great deal of pressure because there were now many more male magicians. These people had long heard that there was a scum who had molested the Eastern Phoenix a few days ago, and this time when they saw the 'culprit', they immediately hit him hard, and Chen Nan looked like he had a deep hatred.
When Chen Nan ran to the entrance of the Divine Wind Academy, he was in rags, with a dark face and wisps of smoke rising from his head, he was in a sorry state.
"I xxxx," he cursed the treacherous Vice Dean, the hateful Little Princess, and the furious Eastern Phoenix a hundred times in his mind.
He finally escaped the gates of the Divine Wind Academy, but the pursuing army behind him was in hot pursuit of him, dozens of magicians bombarding him furiously in the air, and a large number of martial artists shouting furiously after him, the scene was spectacular.
Fortunately, there were many pedestrians on the street, making the magicians in the sky unable to let go, or else Chen Nan would have lost ten lives.
The pedestrians on the street looked at the pursuing army with surprise, the Divine Wind Academy had not seen such a scene for many years, even when they were pursuing a famous murderer, they had only deployed dozens of students.
Chen Nan screamed in agony, the martial artists behind him were fine, he had already lost a large portion of them after turning around, but the magicians in the sky were really giving him a headache, these people were like shadows, how could he not get rid of them.
He ran from the east city to the north city, and then back from the north city, and finally he ran towards the river, along the way, causing chickens and dogs to jump, the street was a big mess.
When approaching the river, without the cover of pedestrians on the street, Chen Nan simply became a living target, if not for those magicians who didn't want to make a scene, he was afraid that he would have died.
Before jumping into the Ringed City River, Chen Nan endured the pain on his body and shouted in the air, "Phoenix wife, wait and see, I will definitely teach you a good lesson in the future." After saying that, he plunged into the river with a jerk.
Eastern Phoenix gritted her teeth, her face turning blue with anger, and finally she couldn't help but scream, ''Ah I must kill this bastard''
