Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1392: Chapter 1393: Ice-Tempered Serpent

Li Mengli had never seen such a beautiful flower in her entire life.

Under the cold wind, amidst the snow-covered landscape, it looked like a sacred goddess, dancing gracefully in the wind.

The snow-white petals were immaculate, exuding a faint and delicate fragrance.

Li Mengli couldn’t help but walk closer, wanting to savor it thoroughly.

”Careful!”

Her hand was suddenly grabbed by Lin Chen, pulling her back four or five steps.

”Hiss, hiss!” Almost simultaneously, a snow-white venomous snake darted out from the snow.

This venomous snake had a triangular head, was entirely white, and was flicking its bright red tongue.

”Snow Mountain Icy Snake!” Li Mengli’s expression suddenly changed.

If Lin Chen hadn’t pulled her back just now, she would have surely been bitten by the snake.

The venom of the Snow Mountain Icy Snake is incredibly potent. If bitten, the toxin would immediately attack the heart, leading to death.

At this moment, the icy snake flicked its tongue, its blood-red eyes emanating a chilling coldness, staring sinisterly at the two of them.

”Lin Chen!” Looking at the venomous snake in front of her, Li Mengli’s heart tightened.

Although she usually practiced with her master, she had very little real combat experience like this.

The opponent was a Snow Mountain Icy Snake, whose bite would result in immediate poisoning and death.

Lin Chen looked at the Snow Mountain Icy Snake, not only without any tension but rather with excitement on his face.

”Mengli, you are truly fortunate. If I had your luck back then, I wouldn’t have suffered such pain,” Lin Chen said enviously.

The Snow Mountain Icy Snake, which grows in extremely cold regions, has a snake gallbladder that is excellent for merging Spiritual Fire. With the Snow Lotus and the snake gallbladder, Lin Chen was ninety percent certain that unless something unusual happened, Li Mengli’s fusion with the Spiritual Fire would be a natural outcome.

However, at this moment, Li Mengli’s face had already turned pale with fright. After all, she was a girl and had a particular fear of snakes.

Looking at the icy snake, Lin Chen crossed his arms and stepped aside: ”I’ll leave this little white snake to you. Kill it; the snake gallbladder can be used as a catalyst for your Spiritual Fire fusion.”

”Lin Chen, are you a man or not? Letting a girl deal with a snake while you stand by and watch...” Li Mengli, flushed with anger, was about to argue with Lin Chen, but the icy snake had already lunged at her, flicking its tongue.

Yet Lin Chen just stood there laughing, clearly planning to watch from the sidelines.

”This bastard,” Li Mengli cursed Lin Chen, her body dodging the icy snake’s attack with a swift move.

Actually, it wasn’t that Lin Chen was unchivalrous; he had his reasons for doing so.

Given Li Mengli’s strength, taking down this icy snake was a piece of cake.

But Li Mengli’s biggest weakness was growing up in a sheltered environment, having never faced real-life death challenges. If confronted with an actual enemy, her kind-hearted nature would surely be her downfall.

Therefore, Lin Chen left the icy snake to Li Mengli as practice.

After all, only such life-and-death battles can truly train her character, allowing her to face true danger calmly.

Li Mengli evaded the icy snake’s attack, extending her hand to produce a dagger.

The icy snake seemed intent on protecting the Snow Mountain Lotus behind it; after biting in vain, it quickly charged at Li Mengli again.

Li Mengli’s gaze turned cold; a glint of cold light flashed as she directly flung the dagger at the snake.

The dagger struck the icy snake’s tail directly, rendering it motionless as if it had died.

Li Mengli let out a sigh of relief, turning around just as she was about to speak to Lin Chen, when suddenly Lin Chen flicked his hand, and a dagger was thrust towards her.

Almost simultaneously, Li Mengli felt a cold sensation beneath her feet; she looked down and her face changed drastically.

It turned out that the icy snake wasn’t dead after all; it had opened its fangs, preparing to bite her as she turned her head.

The icy snake was too fast; it was too late for Li Mengli to dodge.

Just as the icy snake was about to bite her leg, a surge of Inner Strength hit the snake’s vital point.

The icy snake twitched a bit before it died.

Lin Chen was speechless, realizing how naive Li Mengli was to be fooled by the snake’s trick of playing dead.

Li Mengli looked at the icy snake pinned to the ground by Lin Chen and gasped, realizing how close she was to dying of venom rather than fire.

Lin Chen walked over, extracted the snake gallbladder, and approached the Snow Mountain Lotus, carefully cutting it down.

Li Mengli, still somewhat startled, asked, ”How did you know the snake wasn’t dead?”

Lin Chen rolled his eyes at Li Mengli: ”Only an idiot like you would be fooled by a snake.”

”Hmph, you could have easily killed the snake, why did you make me take the risk?” Li Mengli pouted in anger.

”Hey, beauty, I can’t be with you forever. With your intelligence, if you don’t train, you’ll have no idea how you died when encountering a strong enemy,” Lin Chen replied, rolling his eyes again.

Li Mengli’s face reddened slightly. Indeed, she had been too careless just now, almost causing a huge mistake.

Although Lin Chen’s words made a lot of sense, Li Mengli still felt a bit unhappy about it.

After securing the Snow Mountain Lotus and the snake gallbladder, Lin Chen was about to leave when a clear gunshot suddenly echoed in the valley.

Hearing this gunshot, Lin Chen frowned, looking into the valley.

He saw a herd of Tibetan antelopes frantically running, with several men wielding hunting rifles persistently shooting at them.

Antelope after antelope fell under the gunfire.

”Poachers!” Lin Chen’s gaze turned cold.

The Tibetan antelope is a protected animal in the country, yet these poachers were rampantly slaughtering them here.

”Let’s go over and take a look,” Lin Chen said coldly.

The two of them headed towards the valley, reaching the bottom about half an hour later.

Dozens of Tibetan antelopes lay in pools of blood by now, while the poachers were cleaning up the scene.

At this moment, one of the poachers, wearing a thick coat and keeping watch, noticed Lin Chen and Li Mengli.

”Don’t talk; let me handle them,” Lin Chen whispered.

Li Mengli nodded. Although both she and Lin Chen were skilled, the opponents were poachers with guns.

Moreover, they outnumber them, and in this harsh environment, the poachers clearly had the upper hand.

These poachers must have been in the valley for a long time, and during their poaching, they often dug up some herbs to sell. This would save Lin Chen a lot of trouble, allowing him to obtain more medicinal ingredients to aid Li Mengli’s fusion.

”Wolf Brother, I spotted two people; they look like young adventurers,” the watcher said to the others.

The three men cleaning up the scene looked up at the approaching pair, their eyes narrowing slightly.

After all, what they were doing was illegal, so hearing about other people made their hearts tighten.

But when they saw it was just two young people coming over, their tense hearts finally relaxed.
