Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 237: Chapter 237: The Birth of Jin Long

Lin Chen, bare-bottomed, ran down the mountain, but the entire Capital City was startled by the thunderous explosion.

In an ancient temple within Capital City, an elderly man with graying hair opened his murky eyes and looked up at the overcast sky, ”Jin Long has emerged, it seems there will be unrest in the world once again.”

In a meditation room of the Zhou family, an elder stood by the window, ”It is actually Jin Long that has emerged!”

Then he picked up his phone, ”Send someone to Tanxiang Mountain immediately, see if they can find the person who attracted Jin Long.”

In the Dragon Group, an elderly man’s gaze became focused, ”Jin Long has emerged, I wonder if it’s a blessing or a curse.”

The ancient martial arts powers throughout Capital City were all discussing the emergence of Jin Long, and at this time, Lin Chen, the instigator of the commotion, had already driven back to his villa.

Luckily, the night was dark and windy, and there were hardly any people on the roads, otherwise, seeing Lin Chen in tatters, driving a luxury car, they would have caught him as a car thief.

After parking the car, he opened the door to his house. His aunt and An Xiaodi should have been asleep already, so he tiptoed toward his own room.

”Click!”

The light suddenly turned on, and seeing Lin Chen fully exposed, An Xiaodi was first stunned, then her expression darkened.

”Did you go and meet with another girl...”

Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh and cry; he never would have expected this girl to be waiting for him in the living room.

He quickly grabbed a throw pillow from the sofa beside him to cover his privates, and said awkwardly, ”Xiaodi, actually I just went to gamble.”

”Gamble?” An Xiaodi was taken aback.

”Isn’t it your birthday tomorrow? I originally wanted to win some money to buy you a birthday gift, but I didn’t expect to have such bad luck that I even lost my underwear,” Lin Chen said, looking downcast and dejected.

An Xiaodi’s pretty face turned slightly red, and the clouds on her face suddenly dispersed. Indeed, it was her birthday tomorrow. She thought that Lin Chen had forgotten, but to her surprise, he still remembered.

”Why are you so silly? I would like any gift you give me, regardless of its value. And you’re not allowed to gamble anymore,” An Xiaodi’s tone softened significantly.

Lin Chen nodded, looking very much chastened, ”Yeah, now I finally understand the dangers of gambling. I won’t do it again, and I’ll buy you a gift tomorrow that I’m sure you’ll like.”

”Mm, that’s good. Come here, let me wipe off the rain on you, don’t catch a cold,” An Xiaodi took out a handkerchief from her pocket and gently wiped Lin Chen’s body with her jade-like hand.

Her fingertips glided over Lin Chen’s skin, cold to the touch.

Damn, I can’t take it anymore, Lin Chen’s couldn’t bear the ambiguous feeling any longer and quickly said, ”Xiaodi, I’m going to take a shower first, we’ll talk later.”

Without waiting for An Xiaodi to react, he rushed into the bedroom.

After a refreshing shower, Lin Chen couldn’t wait to enter the Prison of Time and beckoned for the gold element in his palm.

Above his palm, lightning flashed, and a crackling ball of lightning gathered in his hand.

With his previous experience of gathering fire, Lin Chen quickly managed to gather the lightning in his palm.

After practicing all night, Lin Chen could now gather and stably control the lightning in his palm.

The third step, maintaining the lightning element, materialization.

With a thought, a lightning-shaped whip appeared in his palm, but it vanished just as rapidly.

Indeed, it wasn’t that easy.

Lin Chen looked at his empty palm and sighed.

Inside his spiritual sea, the little golden dragon, due to excessive overexertion, had grown tired, and the Qi Sea had also become much dimmer.

The dimming of the Qi Sea indicated that the energy of the gold element within it had been completely depleted.

It seemed that in addition to practicing his cultivation techniques, Lin Chen also had to expand his Qi Sea, after all, without energy, even the strongest spells were impossible to cast.

At this moment, due to the excessive expenditure of spiritual power, Lin Chen was also showing signs of fatigue.

Crawling into his quilt, Lin Chen drifted into dreamland.

”Bang bang bang!”

A series of knocking sounds woke Lin Chen, who rubbed his eyes and opened the door.

An Xiaodi stood at the door with a beaming smile, ”Lin Chen, didn’t you say you were going to buy me a birthday gift?”

Lin Chen nodded, ”Yeah, but, what time is it even now!”

An Xiaodi held her watch up to Lin Chen’s face, ”Big sleepyhead, it’s already two in the afternoon; you’ve slept through the whole morning.”

Damn, I actually slept for such a long time.

Lin Chen hurriedly washed up and then left the villa with An Xiaodi.

”Where are you taking me to buy the gift?” asked An Xiaodi curiously.

”It’s a secret,” Lin Chen said with a mysterious air.

Getting out of the car, An Xiaodi was stunned by the sight of the antiques market before her.

The antique street in Capital City was famous nationwide, and while there were indeed genuine articles here, the fakes were far more plentiful. An Xiaodi had long heard that the antique street was full of traps and that it was considered good luck if even one in ten thousand antiques was genuine.

She voiced her concern, ”Lin Chen, I’ve heard this place is quite tricky, and we might get cheated since we don’t know much about this stuff!”

Lin Chen smiled, ”Don’t worry, I’m here with you, and I’ve got the Eyes of Golden Flame.”

For others, stumbling upon a good find here would require not only good eyesight but also luck. However, Lin Chen was different; he possessed a natural cheating tool, the Tianyan Divine Pupil.

The antiques street was bustling and lively, with stores both quaint and elegantly decorated lining both sides of the road.

As Lin Chen and An Xiaodi moved with the flow of people, looking here and there, they still hadn’t found an appropriate gift.

Although Lin Chen did see a few genuine items along the way, none seemed quite right as a gift for An Xiaodi.

The two walked into an antique shop, and after Lin Chen swept his gaze around the store without seeing anything he liked, he was about to leave when he caught sight of a familiar figure.

”Xiaobei, what are you doing here?” Lin Chen walked over with a smile.

Su Xiaobei smiled, ”Grandpa’s eightieth birthday is coming up, and I wanted to pick out a gift for him. He loves landscape paintings, and the shopkeeper just recommended this one to me; I think it’s quite nice.”

With that, Su Xiaobei pointed to a landscape painting on the counter.

At this moment, a middle-aged man spoke up cheerfully, ”Miss Su has such a good eye. This is an early work by Su Dongpo. It cost me a million to acquire, but for Old Mr. Su’s sake, I’ll part with it, only charging you an extra hundred thousand for my cost. How about that?”

Su Xiaobei smiled, ”Thank you, Boss Qian. Grandpa will definitely like this landscape painting. The reason I chose to buy from your shop is that you have old ties with Grandpa, and I won’t be duped.”

”Haha, Miss Su, rest assured, I, Qian Wuyi, can guarantee with my reputation that this painting is authentic,” Boss Qian said confidently.

Lin Chen’s eyes swiftly scanned the ancient painting, and in just a moment, he had his answer.

Although the painting was a very convincing imitation, it had almost no Spiritual Energy; it was essentially a modern counterfeit.

A cold smirk crossed Lin Chen’s lips, ”It seems that Boss Qian’s reputation isn’t worth much after all.”

”What did you say?” Boss Qian’s face changed abruptly upon hearing Lin Chen’s words.
