Dashing Student-Chapter 601: This is Your Providence

Chen Nan's gaze shifted from Lin Yu's gradually lifeless corpse and slowly turned towards the direction of Jizhou in the distance.

His eyes were deep and complex, as if penetrating through thousands of mountains and rivers, reaching the familiar land deep in his memories.

At this moment, the dark clouds above Luming Island had completely dispersed, and the sunlight poured down without reservation, illuminating the entire island with clarity.

The golden light showered upon him, as if draping him in a layer of sacred radiance.

A gentle breeze caressed, stirring his blood-stained clothes and bringing a trace of coolness, yet unable to cool the flame that had been burning in his heart for a long time.

He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling, with mixed feelings in his heart.

The hatred for his father's murder, which was too great to share the sky, was finally released at this moment!

His fists clenched slightly, with his enemy's fresh blood still remaining on his fingertips—evidence of his revenge, as well as a mark of his growth.

"Dad, your son has finally avenged you!" His voice was low and hoarse, with a trace of choking, as if the emotions suppressed for many years finally found an outlet at this moment.

"If you have a spirit in heaven, you can rest in peace now!" he murmured softly, his voice drifting with the wind, as though it could penetrate the clouds and reach the netherworld.

Before his eyes emerged the sound and smile of his father – that warm smile, the stern teachings, as if it was just yesterday.

The image of his father remained as clear as ever in his memory, as if he had never left.

Now, he had used the enemy's blood to console his father's spirit in heaven, but all this had come with such difficulty, such a long journey.

Fortunately, the outcome was good!

Chen Nan slowly turned around, his eyes sweeping over the stunned martial artists of Jianghu around him.

In their eyes, there was fear, reverence, and confusion.

But one thing was clear – in their eyes, Chen Nan had already become a legend, a top echelon super warrior in the Jianghu.

His name was destined to be recorded in the annals of Jianghu history, becoming an existence that later generations would look up to.

"I've gained some insights from the recent battle and need to meditate and practice in seclusion here, so I ask all of you friends to leave the island!" Chen Nan's voice rose slowly. Although it was flat, it carried an unquestionable authority.

His tone was steady, yet it conveyed an irresistible pressure.

In an instant, those who had come to watch the battle bowed and saluted, their faces filled with awe and compliance.

They dared not hesitate and quickly turned to leave.

Hu Ba, struggling to suppress his weakness, staggered to his feet, with every movement causing excruciating pain in his chest as if being cut by a knife.

He raised his head, looking at Chen Nan with complicated eyes—there was reluctance, but also a hint of indescribable admiration.

He gritted his teeth, his voice hoarse yet firm: "Although I was defeated by you today, there will come a day when I will wash away this shame and trample you under my feet!"

His tone was filled with defiance, as if he was fighting for his last shred of dignity.

However, deep inside, he felt a trace of gratitude towards Chen Nan.

If it wasn't for today's battle, he might never have been able to break through his restraints and step into the realm of the Great Grandmaster.

This conflict of emotions intertwined in his heart, making it difficult for him to let go.

Upon hearing these words, Chen Nan gently shook his head, his eyes as deep as the sea, as if he could see through people's hearts.

His voice was calm and gentle, yet it had a power that struck the soul: "A person's life is like the grass and trees in autumn."

"We spend our lives trying to surpass others, yet we fail to realize that the one we truly need to surpass is ourselves."

These words hit Hu Ba's heart like a heavy hammer.

His pupils trembled violently, a flash of astonishment passing through his eyes.

He had never thought that such profound words could come from such a young opponent before him.

A simple sentence, yet it granted him an epiphany as if cleansing cream had been poured over his head, as if the fog shrouding his heart had been instantly dispersed.

Hu Ba fell silent for a moment, the unwillingness on his face gradually faded, replaced by a respect emanating from deep within.

He took a deep breath and bowed to Chen Nan with utmost seriousness, his tone sincere: "Thank you for your guidance, I know what to do now."

Chen Nan smiled faintly, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes: "You are quite astute. Since you understand what I am trying to convey, then I shall give you another piece of advice."

"As for whether you can comprehend its true meaning, that depends on your perceptiveness."

Hu Ba's expression became solemn, he said respectfully: "Please speak."

Chen Nan's gaze seemed to penetrate through time and space, his voice carried a transcendent wisdom: "You have strong insight in sword skills, but you have overlooked one thing—simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

"No matter how complex the sword skill, it must ultimately return to the heart."

"If you can distill complexity into simplicity, returning to the basics, only then can your sword truly cut through Heaven and Earth!"

After hearing this, Hu Ba stood frozen as if struck by lightning.

The words of Chen Nan echoed over and over in his mind, as if a brand-new door was slowly opening in front of him.

He murmured to himself: "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication... Returning to the basics..."

A moment later, a glint of realization flashed in his eyes, and a smile of relief appeared on his face.

He bowed deeply to Chen Nan again, his tone full of gratitude: "Thank you for the guidance, Hu is thoroughly enlightened."

"This is your own fortune, no thanks necessary!" Chen Nan's face remained calm, with an air of detachment.

"Then this junior will take his leave!" Hu Ba bowed to Chen Nan and then walked toward the shore.

His mood was like the waters of Luming Lake, unable to calm for a long time.

Today's battle with Chen Nan not only allowed him to make a breakthrough but also allowed him to see his own shortcomings.

Especially the words from Chen Nan earlier, which had allowed him to truly recognize himself!

After Hu Ba left.

On Luming Island, only Chen Nan remained.

He stood under the sunlight, his shadow stretched long and lonely.

A gentle breeze passed, taking away the last bit of clamor, leaving behind nothing but endless tranquility and profundity.

He slowly assumed a cross-legged position, his robe fluttering lightly in the breeze, as if becoming one with the surroundings of Heaven and Earth.

He closed his eyes, his expression serene, as if entering some mysterious state.

The next moment.

Chen Nan's face suddenly contorted, veins on his forehead bulging, cold sweat sliding down his cheeks.

His body trembled slightly, as if bearing an indescribable pain.

"Pfft!"

He violently spat out a mouthful of blood, the bright red liquid spilling onto the ground, staining the earth red.

His complexion instantly turned pale as paper, his eyes that were deep as stars now lost their luster, appearing extremely haggard and weak.

He struggled to support his body, refusing to fall, but his breathing became rapid and chaotic, each breath carrying a tearing pain.

"The strength of the Great Grandmaster... truly formidable..." he murmured in a low voice, hoarse and weak, as if he had exhausted all his strength to squeeze out these words.

At that moment.

A laugh as pleasant as a chime rang out: "Hehehe, I told you this guy was badly injured, now do you believe it?"
