School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1253: Chapter 1339: Mysterious Identity

”I really don’t get it, someone with a Supreme Demon Artifact, why would they insist on seizing this Wind-controlling Sword.”

The person dressed as a young nobleman walked toward Chen Nan, casting a glance at the storage ring on his finger which contained the Supreme Demon Artifact—the God Beating Whip.

The allure of a Supreme Demon Artifact is almost irresistible to any cultivator.

However, instead of seizing the opportunity to steal, the person merely stared at the ring briefly, then transferred inner strength into Chen Nan’s body.

If Chen Nan were awake, he would surely recognize that the young nobleman in front of him was actually the same exceptionally gifted woman he had encountered two days earlier during a martial arts competition at the Purple Cloud Palace—Yun Chen.

As of now, she still maintained her male guise.

She hadn’t changed a bit compared to the last time at the Purple Cloud Palace’s demonstration arena.

After transferring some inner strength to Chen Nan, Yun Chen glanced at Yu Wenqingxue beside him and channeled inner strength into her body as well.

About an hour later, Chen Nan and Yu Wenqingxue’s injuries had mostly stabilized.

The first thing Chen Nan saw upon waking was Yun Chen, and he looked slightly surprised: ”How are you here?”

”I’ve been following you all the way from outside the Purple Cloud Palace,” Yun Chen didn’t lie and straightforwardly revealed the truth.

Chen Nan furrowed his brow and asked, ”What’s your purpose then?”

Yun Chen shrugged, opened a folding fan in her hand, and lightly waved it as she said: ”I just saved you both, what do you think my purpose is?”

”Don’t talk nonsense, she and I are just friends.” Chen Nan looked at Yun Chen and after contemplating for a while, said: ”As for your purpose, I truly can’t guess. If it’s for the Supreme Demon Artifact, you could have taken it before I woke up. If it’s for goodwill, we’re not related, there’s no reason for you to save me.”

Yun Chen gave a faint smile, not revealing her purpose, and instead asked: ”What’s your real name?”

”Even though you didn’t take advantage of the situation, now that the Supreme Demon Artifact is exposed, everyone in the Cultivation World is searching for me. Do you think I can trust you?” Chen Nan asked her in return.

Yun Chen shook her head with a smile and said: ”It’s okay if you don’t say, I know your identity well, you’re called Chen Nan, from the Eastern Martial World.”

Inwardly shocked, Chen Nan asked with a frown: ”Who exactly are you, and how do you know so much?”

”Under heaven, if I want to investigate someone, there’s nothing I can’t find out. And naturally, you’re no exception,” Yun Chen said with a calm face, making it really hard for Chen Nan to see what was on her mind.

Chen Nan looked at her and said: ”Since you’re so clear about my identity, shouldn’t you also reveal your own identity to me?”

Yun Chen chuckled and said: ”Your identity, I found out on my own. If you want to know mine, you can investigate yourself.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Nan knew that she wouldn’t disclose it, so he asked: ”It doesn’t matter if you don’t say, but I want to ask you something. Where did you learn Crack Sky Hand, the Chaos Sword Wave, and the Infinite Buddha Handprint?”

”You want to know?”

”Of course!” Chen Nan said: ”Surely you wouldn’t keep even this a secret?”

”You’ve guessed right, for now, I do plan to keep it a secret.”

Yun Chen stood up, turned to leave, and said: ”If next time we meet we don’t have a life-and-death duel, I’ll tell you where I learned these.”

Chen Nan shouted: ”Keeping such little things secret, isn’t it a bit petty?”

Yun Chen ignored him, turned back to point at the storage ring on his hand, and said: ”Once you’re healed, I look forward to a fair fight with you. If you lose, give me the Supreme Demon Artifact.”

”Hey, aren’t you going to leave your real name?” Chen Nan asked.

”No.”

With that, Yun Chen’s figure had already vanished into the woods.

What on earth is her identity?

Unable to figure it out, Chen Nan stood in place for a moment and then walked toward Yu Wenqingxue.

Thanks to integrating the Dragon Emperor Bloodline and his Martial Body abilities, Chen Nan’s recovery rate was far superior to ordinary cultivators, and his injuries had already healed by fifty percent, so he was ready for intense combat.

However, Yu Wenqingxue didn’t possess such a physique, and her injuries would likely require some time of rest to fully recover.

Chen Nan picked her up, spread his wings of the Dual World, and found a valley nearby.

On the stone wall of this valley, there happened to be a cave.

Chen Nan took out some clothes from the storage ring, laid them on the ground, placed Yu Wenqingxue down, and then took out some spiritual medicine, refining it into medicine juice to treat Yu Wenqingxue’s injuries.

Looking at the beauty in front of him, slightly feverish, Chen Nan placed a wet cloth on her forehead, but at this moment—

”Brother Chen, don’t leave me.”

Yu Wenqingxue’s somnambulant voice, seemingly controlled by her subconscious, clutched Chen Nan’s hand, repeatedly saying those words.

Seeing she wasn’t in the best state, Chen Nan held her hand and comforted with his voice: ”Miss Yu Wen, don’t be afraid, Brother Chen is not leaving, Brother Chen is right here beside you, sleep peacefully.”

Yu Wenqingxue seemed to really hear him, her somnambulant voice gradually disappearing, finally falling into a deep sleep.

Chen Nan gently withdrew his hand, then sat cross-legged beside her, starting to meditate and channel qi, healing his internal injuries.

After this passed, about an hour later, Chen Nan’s injuries had mostly healed. To avoid disturbing Yu Wenqingxue’s rest, he stood up to practice outside, but at that moment, Yu Wenqingxue opened her eyes: ”Brother Chen, where are we?”

”Rest assured, we’re a thousand miles from the Purple Cloud Palace, it’s very safe here.” Chen Nan walked towards her.

Yu Wenqingxue smiled: ”As long as you’re here, I’m assured wherever it is.”

”This...”

Chen Nan could naturally feel her attachment to him, smiled, and changed the topic: ”Are you hungry? I’ll get you something to eat.”

Yu Wenqingxue shook her head: ”Brother Chen, you’re quite the joker, haven’t you forgotten? At our level of cultivation, whether we eat or not is already irrelevant.”

”That’s true.” Chen Nan nodded with a smile.

Looking at him, Yu Wenqingxue asked: ”Brother Chen, with so many experts in the Purple Cloud Palace, how did we escape?”

Chen Nan shook his head with a smile: ”From now on, there will be no more Purple Cloud Palace. Even if it exists, it’ll just be a small sect without experts.”

Yu Wenqingxue asked puzzled: ”What do you mean?”

”You don’t need to think too much, in short, the threat from the Purple Cloud Palace to us has significantly diminished,” Chen Nan said, and to prevent Yu Wenqingxue from discussing emotional matters again, he walked out of the cave, took out the already broken Wind-controlling Sword, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Solely relying on these two pieces of broken sword, he wondered if Yao Ye would agree to trade with him.
