Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1966: Chapter 1967: Trouble Strikes After All

Upon hearing this, Bai Nan felt that this Commandery Princess was somewhat socially awkward. He had made his interest so obvious, yet she still seemed interested in a random loose cultivator kid. Wasn’t it just because he was a bit younger?

Bai Nan was originally a loose cultivator himself, but later, by a stroke of luck, he joined this caravan. He also had some connections with the caravan leader, and since his strength was decent, others gave him a lot of respect.

Bai Nan was an ambitious man. Through his inquiries, he discovered the identity of the Commandery Princess, so he immediately had ill intentions. If he could make this Commandery Princess his woman, wouldn’t that mean having endless cultivation resources at his disposal?

Thus, he continuously tried to curry favor on the journey, but this Commandery Princess was no pushover. Her strange and crafty temperament made Bai Nan’s tactics ineffective. It was just like earlier, when he continuously flaunted his cultivation talent, yet she remained interested in that random loose cultivator kid, making him quite annoyed.

Bai Nan squinted his eyes, but still managed a friendly smile and said:

”Alright! Commandery Princess, you wait here, I’ll go get him!”

With that, Bai Nan stood up and walked straight toward Lin Chen. When he was just a few steps away, he reached out to slap Lin Chen’s shoulder.

At that moment, Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

In fact, after getting off the carriage, he had not been cultivating but rather thinking about how to quickly find the lost Qin Lan, Xue Ying, and others. He also released his Divine Sense to observe his surroundings. Bai Nan and the Commandery Princess were not far from him, and he heard all their conversation.

Therefore, just as Bai Nan’s large hand was about to touch his shoulder, Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes, startling Bai Nan. Looking at Lin Chen’s somewhat fierce and intimidating gaze, Bai Nan momentarily forgot what he wanted to say.

Lin Chen frowned and asked:

”What’s the matter?”

Bai Nan snapped back to reality and was somewhat displeased in his heart, thinking to himself, ”How dare this loose cultivator kid glare at me?”

”Kid, I see you’ve had a tough journey, and the Commandery Princess said she wants to invite you for some roast meat!”

Saying this, Bai Nan glanced over at the Commandery Princess, who waved over with a smile.

Lin Chen glanced over and then said:

”Thank you for your kindness, but there’s no need!”

”Hmm?”

Bai Nan obviously didn’t expect that Lin Chen would refuse. In his view, whether it was the Commandery Princess’s status or his own strength, Lin Chen had no reason to refuse, yet Lin Chen still rejected him and closed his eyes again, as if telling Bai Nan to leave.

Bai Nan’s face darkened. He already had a bit of a grudge against Lin Chen, so he directly said:

”Kid! I’m giving you face, don’t take it for granted! I’ll ask you again, will you go or not!?”

Lin Chen frowned, looked up at Bai Nan’s cold face, and calmly said two words:

”Not going!”

At this moment, Lin Chen was a bit speechless. He had been so low-key, yet trouble still found him. Resolute, Lin Chen decided that if Bai Nan continued to push his luck, he wouldn’t mind teaching him a lesson!

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Chen’s words, Bai Nan’s face became even more sullen, almost dripping water. His somewhat handsome face turned somewhat frightening.

”Kid, you...”

”Brother Bai Nan, come over here quickly!”

Just when Bai Nan was about to lose his temper, the Commandery Princess’s voice came again. Bai Nan’s burgeoning aura was stifled, and he viciously said:

”Consider yourself lucky, but this isn’t over!”

With that, he shot Lin Chen a glare and left.

Lin Chen shook his head in helplessness and paid no further attention.

Today was the caravan’s third day on the road. These days, Lin Chen hadn’t been cultivating but had been refining his Soul Power.

Ever since using a soul skill to kill Qian Jin last time, Lin Chen felt his Soul Power had room for improvement. Although the progress was minimal, it was still good news for Lin Chen.

After all, soul skills were Lin Chen’s trump cards for survival, used only in special circumstances. However, Lin Chen, who had cultivated soul skills, knew that Soul Power was also a method to deal with enemies. Used correctly, it could have unforeseen effective results.

Seemingly as a deliberate challenge to Lin Chen, tonight’s watch had been left entirely to Lin Chen. Others either had diarrhea or headaches—this nonsensical reason was clearly Bai Nan’s doing.

However, Lin Chen didn’t care. After all, he didn’t sleep much at night and spent the time refining his Soul Power, making the night pass quickly until dawn without realizing it.

In the following days, whether targeting Lin Chen or not, Bai Nan made Lin Chen stand the night watch alone each night. Though Lin Chen didn’t mind, his gaze towards Bai Nan grew increasingly hostile.

It seemed that the Commandery Princess had said something to Bai Nan, as Bai Nan never actually attacked Lin Chen, only giving him unpleasant looks. Lin Chen had a vague sense that Bai Nan wasn’t very tolerant and might make a move once they reached their destination. But if that happened, it would be his own doing. Lin Chen wouldn’t be blamed!

”Everyone, just hold on for a while longer, we’ll reach South Ping County in another half-day! Then, drinks are on me!”

The caravan leader, with his large belly, said cheerfully. Hearing his words, everyone smiled happily, chiming in agreement.

Admittedly, even if the caravan leader’s strength wasn’t impressive, he was exceptionally skilled at winning people’s hearts. Even Lin Chen had a decent attitude towards him, not to mention the others.

After days of travel, the distance to South Ping County wasn’t far. In half a day, they’d certainly reach it by the end of the day. Lin Chen’s mood relaxed quite a bit.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and suddenly, Lin Chen frowned and murmured:

”Something’s happening after all!”

No sooner had he spoken than the fast-moving carriage suddenly stopped, causing many carriages to crash into one another. Then, a voice resounded:

”Hahaha! Wan San! You’re truly bold! Escorting a Commandery Princess with just two Divine Sense-level escorts? I must say, that’s quite daring!”

With this voice, everyone’s hearts sank. The caravan leader, also known as Wan San, spoke up:

”Iron Wolf Mercenary Group?”
