My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1164: Du Nong Reveals Himself

At this moment, Kang Taike also began to move, preparing to strike at Lin Wushuang. He stretched his hands towards Lin Wushuang.

Just then, footsteps were suddenly heard not far away. Kang Taike was a master, his hearing extremely sharp. He immediately stopped his actions.

For he felt two powerful Qi approaching.

If he guessed correctly, there were two masters. Kang Taike tapped Lin Wushuang twice, and Lin Wushuang stood motionless, unable to speak.

"Beauty, after I finish my business, I’ll come back to play with you properly, hehe." Kang Taike said, then donned his clothes and disappeared swiftly with a single leap.

Lin Wushuang could only move her eyes, obviously immobilized by a pressure point, unable to speak or move.

The two people over there were precisely Chen Tianlong and Hao Shuai, who had followed the Lamp Holder this far without realizing how far they had run. They saw an open area ahead, shrouded in black fog. The Lamp Holder suddenly stopped and, with a sly smile, said, "You’re doomed because your Divination God has been killed by me."

"Just by you?" Hao Shuai chuckled, completely disbelieving.

"Wrong, it’s not me, but the strength and wisdom of my master," said the Lamp Holder.

"Impossible, Du Nong’s Divination Divine Power is innate, he won’t die so easily, you’re lying," Hao Shuai said, refusing to believe it.

"Yes! Under normal circumstances, he is very hard to kill, but the lamp oil and the thunder were enough to end him," the young man said with a sinister smile.

"Why?" Hao Shuai asked suspiciously.

"You don’t know, do you? What’s the biggest taboo for a Divination God?" The Lamp Holder began to tease.

"How would I know? Just tell me, stop beating around the bush, what’s the answer?" Hao Shuai didn’t want to waste words with him and asked directly for the result.

"Midnight thunder! In the minute after the thunder, his divination power is completely lost. It only recovers afterward, so at that moment, I swapped his lamp oil. No! To be precise, I added some drugs to it. So he can’t divine anything, and within less than a minute, he was poisoned by me, then wouldn’t he just be at my mercy?"

The young man’s explanation was carefree and casual.

Beside him, Hao Shuai was already seething with anger. He raised his Long Sword in his right hand, which glittered under the starlight. With a swing, he charged fiercely.

The mission for this challenge was assassination, and he had to carry a weapon, with the sword naturally being the best choice.

Such an offensive move would be hard for even Chen Tianlong to handle. The young man retreated repeatedly, but his strength was not enough. Hao Shuai kicked him, sending him flying a short distance, clutching his wound and groaning.

At this moment, Hao Shuai, furious like a mad lion, thrust his Long Sword forward. Just then, over ten throwing knives flew rapidly from an unknown direction. Hao Shuai couldn’t help but flip in the air several times, barely stabilizing himself.

At that moment, dark clouds gathered densely, and the wind surged as a man clad in silver armor appeared in the air.

The silver-armored man laughed heartily and said, "It’s been a long time, everyone. You’re all anxious, aren’t you?"

"You’re Kang Taike, aren’t you?"

Chen Tianlong asked subconsciously.

"That’s right. Haven’t you always wanted to kill me? But without Du Nong, the Divination God, it’s like you’ve lost your eyes. Can you really defeat me?" Kang Taike, unrestrained, became arrogant.

Chen Tianlong was not flustered. Instead, he stepped forward and said, "Don’t celebrate too early. The outcome is still uncertain."

Kang Taike still laughed heartily, then suddenly disappeared, but the surrounding air was filled with killing intent. Chen Tianlong saw the Lamp Holder smirking bizarrely, feeling deeply frustrated.

Suddenly, dozens of flying knives appeared in front of Chen Tianlong. He hurriedly blocked them with the Dragon Slayer Sword, leaping up and using Soaring. However, due to the number, density, and speed of the flying knives, several brushed past his shoulders.

In the end, Chen Tianlong’s shoulder was wounded.

"Haha..."

Kang Taike reappeared before Chen Tianlong, "Forget it, you better give up. I can spare your life and let Pure Yang Daoist know he cannot defeat me. Someday, I will return to reclaim the position of Sect Leader."

"Haha, thank you for your kindness, but dreaming of becoming the Sect Leader of the Celestial Pill Sect is more like it!" Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but ridicule.

While speaking, Chen Tianlong began to operate the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, gathering power. Suddenly, he flew up, the Dragon Slayer Sword emitting an orange glow, and with a powerful swing, Sword Qi rushed towards Kang Taike.

Initially, Kang Taike was a bit surprised, but after a brief shock, he leaped into the air.

Chen Tianlong knew that Kang Taike excelled at ambushes, so he remained vigilant. Kang Taike used the Divination Divine Staff, causing the ground to shake and the mountains to sway, disappearing instantly. This attack was likely to be more powerful than the last.

Chen Tianlong watched his surroundings cautiously, closing his eyes to use his Perception. He could hear breathing from several miles around.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in the sky. Chen Tianlong raised his head quickly to see Kang Taike descending from the sky, falling to the ground. Behind him was the same Lamp Holder, who touched his ear and pulled hard. It turned out he was Du Nong.

Du Nong smiled, but his voice seemed a bit tremulous. Chen Tianlong sensed something, hurriedly walked over, and supported Du Nong.

"Brother Chen Tianlong, I told you I was the Divination God, didn’t I?"

With that, Du Nong spat blood and collapsed to the ground...

Chen Tianlong didn’t have time for much else, he rushed forward, pinched Du Nong’s pulse, and a surge of Pure Yang Qi flowed into Du Nong’s body. He asked worriedly, "Du Nong, what exactly happened?"

Du Nong widened his eyes, his face pale and apparently in pain. With a weak voice, he said, "That night, I went out at midnight, and when I returned, you all asked me, but I said nothing. It was because someone had greater divination power than me, and he would know every word I said."

Du Nong took a breath and continued, "But I knew that Brother Chen Tianlong was extraordinarily wise, you would surely know I wasn’t dead, because of the lamp oil and those eight words, they were enough to enlighten you. I knew all along that the Lamp Holder was a bad person, but I felt they weren’t the only ones committing the crime, and there was a larger power behind them. So I pretended to be mesmerized by him. When he tried to kill me, I killed him instead, then assumed his identity and ran out of the house."

"But didn’t you lose your divination power?"

Chen Tianlong recalled Hao Shuai and Kang Taike’s earlier conversation.

"In my family, my grandfather told me before his death that the greatest taboo for a Divine of Calculation is midnight thunder, which could cause a minute of loss of mana, allowing the enemy an opportunity. That’s why my father was strongly opposed to me learning Divination Skill, but I didn’t believe in that taboo. Since then, I’ve practiced rigorously, going through countless training until I finally overcame this obstacle."

Du Nong explained.
