Myriad talismans.
Although Chen Nan did not know how to draw the teleportation talisman.
He also knew how rare such talismans were. This thing could truly save lives at critical moments.
It was just that he did not expect Elder Wu to be so generous as to give him a teleportation talisman.
Elder Wu smiled and said, "I bet your future achievements will not be too low. This teleportation talisman will be a wager!"
Chen Nan said, "No matter what happens in the future, this junior will never forget Elder Wu's kindness!"
"Go!"
Elder Wu waved his hand.
Upon returning to the bamboo house, Nangong Wan was sipping tea.
"I heard you cursed Luo Chen out?" Nangong Wan said with a smile.
Chen Nan quickly said, "Your disciple has overstepped his bounds. I beg the eldest young lady to punish me!"
"I can't reward you fast enough, how could this young lady bear to punish you?"
Nangong Wan revealed a charming smile, "To be honest, I've always disliked that guy. He's as annoying as a lapdog."
"It's just that he's my father's disciple, so I can't do anything to him!"
"You truly disheartened him today, it was incredibly satisfying!"
Although Nangong Wan was hidden in the back mountain, she knew what had happened in the front.
She grew more fond of Chen Nan.
Chen Nan replied, "This is merely my junior's duty!"
Changing the subject, Chen Nan said, "Eldest young lady, I heard that Uncle-Master Jiang Ye has not recovered from his injuries. I wish to visit him."
Nangong Wan's lips curled up, "You seem very concerned about his affairs?"
Chen Nan's heart trembled.
Could it be that Nangong Wan had discovered he had switched the Blood Toad Pills?
"Indeed, someone as kind-hearted as you, upon learning that an elder in the sect is seriously injured, would surely be concerned." Nangong Wan said, producing a jade bottle, "This is a Qi Replenishing Pill I refined earlier. You can deliver it."
"Yes!"
Chen Nan received it with both hands and then headed towards Jiang Ye's residence.
However.
He wondered if he could find an opportunity to eliminate him this time!
When he arrived at Jiang Ye's dwelling...
He immediately threw the thought of killing Jiang Ye out of his mind.
Three elders were gathered here.
Each of them possessed a profound aura and high cultivation.
They were currently standing by the bedside, questioning Jiang Ye, who had not yet regained consciousness.
Seeing this, Chen Nan quickly bowed, "This disciple, Ye Ce, from the Alchemy Hall, pays his respects to the three seniors!"
"You are the new disciple from the Alchemy Hall? You look quite good!" A black-robed elder stroked his beard and said.
The other two elders also observed Chen Nan, showing great curiosity towards the new disciple.
After all, Huoyun Cave had only a little over three hundred disciples, and even a small matter could spread throughout the entire mountain sect.
Let alone becoming a favorite of the eldest young lady!
"Ye Ce, what are you doing here?" a gray-robed elder asked.
Chen Nan replied, "The eldest young lady is concerned about Senior Jiang Ye and specifically sent this disciple to deliver some Qi Replenishing Pills!" He held the jade bottle above his head with both hands.
The black-robed elder smiled, "I think I know why that girl likes you. You are indeed likable!"
The gray-robed elder also said, "Indeed. Given that girl's personality, she wouldn't let you deliver the pills at all. She'd probably wish for Jiang Ye to die sooner."
"Even less likely would she allow you to come and deliver medicine."
"If I'm not mistaken, you must be troubled by last night's events and specifically asked that girl for the pills to give to Jiang Ye."
"You're clearly acting out of kindness yourself, yet you're imposing these notions onto that girl, wholeheartedly protecting her."
"I'm starting to like you now!"
Chen Nan was speechless.
They say self-projection is the most terrifying.
It truly is!
I'm nowhere as great and noble as you imagine!
I just want to kill Jiang Ye!
"You should give Jiang Ye the Qi Replenishing Pill first. We have some questions for him!" the white-robed elder said.
"Yes!"
Chen Nan took out a Qi Replenishing Pill, placed it into Jiang Ye's mouth, and then placed the bottle of pills by the bedside. "This disciple will take his leave!"
The white-robed elder responded with a soft, indiscernible hum.
After Chen Nan left, the white-robed elder remarked, "This lad is good. In worldly terms, he's someone with high emotional intelligence."
The black-robed elder grinned, "Senior Brother uses the term 'high emotional intelligence.' If we were to use less eloquent terms, this lad is a big sycophant!"
Cough, cough, cough!
At this moment.
Jiang Ye, who had just taken the Qi Replenishing Pill, let out a violent cough and slowly opened his eyes. "This disciple, Jiang Ye, pays his respects to the three protectors!"
He then attempted to rise and bow.
The white-robed elder said, "You should lie down and rest. There's no need to bow."
"We came here for a routine inquiry."
"What happened to you down the mountain?"
"Your cultivation, although not very high, has reached the peak of the fifth layer of Qi Refining."
"You should be able to sweep through the entire secular world, so why were you so seriously injured?"
"Who exactly wounded you?"
Jiang Ye gritted his teeth and said, "Seniors, this disciple was injured by a cultivator named Chen Nan."
"This person is the leader of the Witch sect, one of the outer eight sects. His cultivation is not deep, but he is extremely despicable."
"If not for that, this disciple would never have been injured."
"It is I who have shamed the sect. Once my injuries heal, I will descend the mountain and kill this person!"
As he spoke, a startling killing intent flashed in his eyes.
He did not intend to mention that Chen Nan possessed a spiritual artifact.
After all, spiritual artifacts were too rare.
Let alone in the secular world, even in Zhongnan Mountain, they could provoke conflicts between sects.
Therefore, he wanted to monopolize that spiritual artifact.
The white-robed elder nodded slightly, "You are a disciple of my Huoyun Cave. If you cannot defeat Chen Nan, we can send someone to kill this brat."
"However, he is ultimately your enemy. It would be best for you to kill him yourself."
"Rest well. Once your injuries heal, I will send two disciples to accompany you down the mountain to kill this brat!"
"Yes!"
The three then departed Jiang Ye's residence.
As they reached the doorway, they found Chen Nan waiting outside.
The white-robed elder frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, "You haven't left yet?"
Chen Nan quickly said, "Seniors, the eldest young lady is concerned about Senior Jiang Ye, and asked this disciple to inquire if he felt unwell, so that I could refine some pills for him!"
"Is that truly all?" the white-robed elder asked expressionlessly.
Chen Nan stammered, "It is absolutely true, this disciple would not dare to lie!"
The black-robed elder chuckled, "Senior Brother, why so serious? He's just being considerate. Surely you don't suspect he was eavesdropping on our conversation?"
He then patted Chen Nan on the shoulder, "We've finished our questions. You can go in now."
"Yes!"
Chen Nan took a few steps back before turning and entering Jiang Ye's room.
The black-robed elder said earnestly, "Senior Brother, this lad has high emotional intelligence and extraordinary talent."
"If nothing unexpected happens, our Huoyun Cave will become his stepping stone."
"Therefore, it's best to build a good relationship with him sooner rather than later!"
The white-robed elder shook his head, "I always feel that he's too concerned about Jiang Ye."
The black-robed elder smiled, "As a disciple of the Alchemy Hall, isn't it only natural for him to care about injured disciples within the sect?"
"This is a good thing. Do you really think he wants to kill Jiang Ye?"
"He has no past grudges or present enmities with Jiang Ye, why would he want to kill him?"
"We should have a benevolent heart and not treat our disciples as villains!"
