Dashing Student-Chapter 1322: Utterly Useless

The thunder exploded, and even the Demon Cultivators in the distance felt a tingling in their hearts. That was the nemesis of their evil techniques.

To deal with these sinister things, thunder is the best means of suppression, but Chen Nan had more than just thunder.

"Heaven-Burning Flame!"

A golden flame appeared in his palm, then he slammed it onto the ground heavily. The flame rushed across the ground like long serpents, instantly wrapping around several Yin Corpses.

The places scorched by the flame emitted sizzling sounds, and even black smoke rose from them, causing several Demon Cultivators to be backfired, each looking at Chen Nan with terrified eyes.

"Who... who are you really?"

Chen Nan glanced coldly over, and the Shadowless Silk wrapped around his fingers extended again, directly wrapping up the remaining Demon Cultivators. The sharp threads cut their flesh, causing them unbearable pain.

Without the Yin Corpses, their combat abilities were hardly worth mentioning.

As they watched the Yin Corpses gradually turn to ash, faces of despair spread across the Demon Cultivators.

Throwing the three Demon Cultivators that he had knocked out earlier in front of them, Chen Nan approached them with Sword Chenyuan in hand, glowing with an eerie light under the moonlight.

"What’s your purpose?" he asked the first Demon Cultivator.

"Hmph, don’t expect to learn anything from me!"

The Demon Cultivator displayed an impressive toughness, but Chen Nan wasted no words. He raised his sword and cut down, killing the first Demon Cultivator on the spot, and then moved to the second one.

"Speak."

"I..."

Not waiting for him to continue, Chen Nan swiftly struck again. The blade was imbued with a layer of Heaven-Burning Flame, ensuring that even in death, he would be burned and scream in agony.

By the time it was the third one’s turn, he was already terrified. Even though he was a Demon Cultivator with blood on his hands, facing death was a different story.

"Don’t kill me. I really can’t say..."

Before he could finish, he was slain by Chen Nan, and then the next one.

In the end, only three Demon Cultivators were left alive on the ground, including the leader among them.

"Are you still refusing to talk?"

The Demon Cultivator quickly said, "It’s not that I don’t want to speak, but we’ve all been set with a restriction. Disclosing any information will lead to backlash!"

"So you are useless?"

Chen Nan raised an eyebrow and killed another.

His utter ruthlessness completely broke the defenses of the next Demon Cultivator, causing him to cry out, "Don’t kill me! I’ll say it all. We’re just here to gather information. There are others... Ah!"

Before finishing, a strange flame suddenly appeared on him, even Chen Nan couldn’t stop it, and the Demon Cultivator was burned to ashes.

"Is this the restriction placed by the Demon Sect? Equally vicious."

Thinking about his own Soul Locking Talisman, Chen Nan smiled self-mockingly and looked at the last Demon Cultivator, who was also the leader.

"Do you have nothing you want to say?"

The man coldly sneered, "I advise you to release me, or soon, this place will turn into a mortal purgatory!"

Chen Nan raised an eyebrow, "Are you saying that the Demon Sect sent more people over? Or that the Yin Corpse Sect will seek revenge?"

But after speaking, the Demon Cultivator turned his head to one side, refusing to say another word.

For such obstinate individuals, Chen Nan did not hesitate, sending him to meet his ancestors and then burning the bodies of the Demon Cultivators.

Using Divine Sense to scan and ensure there were no evaders around, he then hurriedly proceeded to the place where the Fire Smoke Talisman had lit up.

Before reaching it, he heard sounds of battle. A Demon Cultivator was controlling a Yin Corpse, while Zheng Yunzhou and four others had already gathered, fighting against the Yin Corpse.

Although the strength of this Yin Corpse was far inferior to the ones Chen Nan had encountered, it still left Zheng Yunzhou and the others wretchedly struggling, as their methods lost effectiveness against the Yin Corpse.

"All of you, get out of the way, let me handle this!"

Chen Nan shouted, rushing forward with thunder flashing in his palm. A palm strike was executed, unleashing a fierce thunder as if divine punishment, submerging the Yin Corpse in an instant.

The Demon Cultivator controlling the Yin Corpse suffered a backlash, directly spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face changing drastically. Deng Yunhe and the others rushed forward to capture him.

However, this Demon Cultivator was also set with a restriction, allowing Chen Nan to gain no useful information.

"Just one Demon Cultivator, and the island’s cultivators couldn’t handle it, they’re utterly useless," Deng Yunhe cursed.

Chen Nan shook his head, "It’s not just one person. There are more at the Gold Essence Ore side, but I’ve handled them. From their conversations, I’ve gathered some vague information."

After he shared the information, the faces of the others changed drastically.

"So, you’re guessing that more Demon Sect Cultivators will come here? What are they after? The resources on this island are almost depleted," Deng Yunhe was very confused.

"Perhaps it wasn’t because of cultivation resources," Ning Yu said with a serious expression, "It might be the Demon Clan’s doing."

Zheng Yunzhou sighed, "To provoke a war between the Righteous Alliance and the Demon Sect, the Demon Clan must have schemed meticulously. But haven’t the Demon Sect and Righteous Alliance Elders already realized that the Demon Clan is behind these tricks?"

"Knowing is one thing, but perhaps they have ulterior motives?" Daoist Cui laughed.

Watching their indignant expressions, Chen Nan shook his head and looked towards the distant giant city, "Let’s go, we should meet the Island Master, he might know something."

They quickly returned to the city, just as dawn broke, darkness dissipated, and the sun seemed to rise directly from the giant city.

From the conversations with the Demon Cultivators, Chen Nan not only learned that a larger conflict would erupt here, but also suspected that Xin Zi might have already sided with the Demon Sect.

Otherwise, how did those Demon Cultivators know they were waiting like sitting ducks and used a luring tactic?

So they went straight to the Island Master Mansion, blocking Xin Zi in the room.

"You finally returned. These days had me worried sick. I thought the Demon Cultivators had killed you all," Xin Zi said with a relieved expression.

Deng Yunhe sneered, "It’s not that you wish we were dead? Why pretend to care?"

Xin Zi looked puzzled, "What are you talking about? I’m the one who requested sending people over, how could I wish for you to die?"

"If it wasn’t you, how did those Demon Cultivators know our plans?" Zheng Yunzhou questioned sharply.

"What?" Xin Zi spread his hands, looking extremely wronged, "What are you accusing me of?"

Seeing his appearance, even Chen Nan was suspicious, because nothing indicated that Xin Zi was lying. If he was acting, he could win awards outside.

"You really don’t know anything?" Ning Yu remained doubtful.

At this moment, a guard rushed to Xin Zi’s side.

"Island Master, it’s bad news, lots of Demon Cultivators have arrived!"
