Dashing Student

Hearing Hu Ba’s words.

Lin Yu felt a surge of ecstasy, as if a huge boulder pressing on his heart had finally been lifted, making his breathing much smoother.

He hurriedly nodded, his tone carrying a mix of urgency and appeasement: "Hero Hu, rest assured, I will definitely be able to invite Chen Nan out! He will not miss this opportunity."

No sooner had he finished speaking, Lin Yu suddenly paused, frowning slightly, a hint of hesitation crossing his face.

He pursed his lips, his voice lowered a few notes, carrying a hint of unease: "However... this man’s strength is indeed not to be underestimated."

"Rumors in Jianghu claim that his martial arts have reached the level of a Great Grandmaster, and perhaps even stronger."

"Moreover, he is also proficient in Gu Technique, with sinister and ruthless methods, one slight misstep could lead to disaster..."

At this point, his tone revealed a hint of dread, his gaze involuntary glancing towards Hu Ba.

On hearing this, Hu Ba still looked indifferent, as if the "Great Grandmaster" and "Gu Technique" Lin Yu mentioned were mere trifles.

He smiled lightly, his tone casual yet filled with undeniable confidence: "Young Master Lin, you need not worry about this at all."

"Since I dare to descend from the mountain, naturally, I have something to rely on." As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand, his fingertips gently stroking the hilt of the long sword at his waist, his movements gentle yet filled with strength.

"I need a formidable opponent to hone my Sword Skill, to break through my own limits." Hu Ba’s voice was deep and powerful, his eyes blazing, as if he was already envisioning the moment his Sword Skill reached perfection.

He slightly lifted his chin, his lips curling into a meaningful smile: "Chen Nan, is just the stepping stone for my fame to spread far and wide."

He had long heard of Chen Nan’s strength, even deliberately inquiring about his adversarial records.

That’s why he voluntarily requested to leave the mountain, vowing to personally eliminate Chen Nan.

Not only to fulfill his master’s entrusting, but also as a perfect opportunity to break through his own limits and make a name for himself in Jianghu.

Seeing Hu Ba’s confident demeanor, Lin Yu’s anxiety gradually dissolved, replaced by an irrepressible excitement.

A confident smile appeared on his face, as if victory was already within reach.

He immediately said: "Good! I will call Chen Nan right now and invite him out!" Saying this, he eagerly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, his fingers swiftly sliding across the screen, a resolute look in his eyes.

Lin Yu knew well that Chen Nan had always harbored deep hatred for him, vowing to avenge his father.

Therefore, as long as he took the initiative to contact Chen Nan, given the latter’s personality, he would surely agree to meet.

And once Chen Nan showed up, Hu Ba could use his superior martial skills to defeat him with his sword!

Thinking of this, Lin Yu’s lips curled into a cold sneer, as if he had already seen Chen Nan lying in a pool of blood.

Just as Lin Yu was about to make the call, Hu Ba’s voice rang out again, deep and powerful, like an invisible sword piercing straight to the heart: "Tell Chen Nan, in two days at noon, I’ll be waiting for him on Luming Island."

His tone was unswerving, carrying a majestic authority, as if he had already pronounced the final verdict on Chen Nan’s fate.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu’s fingers faltered slightly, then he nodded firmly: "Understood! I will tell him right away."

His voice could barely conceal the excitement.

As if he had already foreseen the day when he would free himself from Chen Nan’s threat!

The next moment, the call connected.

A deep and cold voice came from the receiver, tinged with amusement and ridicule: "Young Master Lin, you dare to seek me out? What, did you think you’ve lived too long already?"

Lin Yu suppressed the nervousness in his heart and said deliberately calmly, "Chen Nan, I know you have been looking for me. Since that’s the case, let’s settle this once and for all."

"Two days later, at noon, on Luming Island, I’ll be waiting for you." After he finished speaking, his heartbeat quickened, fearing that the other party might notice something.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a cold laugh: "Luming Island? Hah, you sure know how to pick a place."

"What, you’ve finally come to your senses and are ready to surrender?"

Lin Yu clenched his teeth, his tone carrying a hint of provocation: "Chen Nan, don’t think I’m afraid of you!"

"This trip to Luming Island will end with either your death or mine!"

"Dare you come?"

Chen Nan’s laughter grew even colder, as if it came from the depths of Hell: "Good, very good. Lin Yu, since you’ve come to me willingly, I shall grant your wish."

"In two days, on Luming Island, I will make you pay for everything you’ve done!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu exhaled deeply, his forehead already covered in a fine layer of sweat.

He turned his head to look at Hu Ba, barely squeezing out a smile: "Hero Hu, Chen Nan has agreed."

"In two days, he will definitely appear on Luming Island."

Hu Ba nodded, his gaze still as calm as water, as if everything was under his control.

He slowly stood up, with the long sword in his hand emitting a cold gleam under the sunlight, his tone indifferent yet full of confidence: "Young Master Lin, just wait for the good news."

"In two days, on Luming Island, I will take Chen Nan’s life."

Lin Yu hastily said, "Hero Hu, I will accompany you to the island! I want to see with my own eyes Chen Nan dying under your sword!"

His voice carried a bit of eagerness and excitement, as if he couldn’t wait to witness Chen Nan’s last moments.

Upon hearing this, Hu Ba slightly turned his gaze to look at Lin Yu, his lips curling into a meaningful smile: "Since Young Master Lin is so eager, let’s go together."

"However, remember one thing—no matter what happens, do not interfere in my fight."

Lin Yu quickly nodded, his tone somewhat ingratiating: "Rest assured, Hero Hu, I will not interfere!"

"I just want to personally witness Chen Nan’s execution and settle this grudge!"

Hu Ba’s gaze slightly hardened, seemingly lost in brief contemplation, then he slowly began, his voice low yet penetrating: "One more thing, make public my arrival in Provincial City and announce to all the heroes in Jianghu that two days from now, I will engage Chen Nan in a life-or-death duel at Luming Island."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu was slightly startled, a flicker of confusion crossing his mind.

But in the blink of an eye, a sharp gleam shot through his eyes, like a cold star suddenly lighting up the darkness.

At that moment, he finally understood Hu Ba’s intentions.

Hu Ba intended to invite the people of Jianghu to Luming Island to watch the battle, using it as an opportunity to make a name for himself in the Jianghu by successfully killing Chen Nan.

Although Chen Nan was currently an unknown figure in Jianghu, with his own connections and strategies in Provincial City, he could fully hype up Chen Nan, making this duel highly anticipated.

If Hu Ba emerged victorious, his fame would spread through Jianghu like wildfire.

With this in mind.

Lin Yu’s expression remained calm as he turned to look at his beautiful secretary, Han Lu, and instructed in a firm yet calm tone: "Spread the news of Hero Hu’s arrival in Provincial City, and, at the same time, reveal Chen Nan’s identity to the world without reservation."
