Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1978: Chapter 1979: Mission Accomplished

Then, Lin Chen raised his arm, and the Tianyan Ancient Sword appeared in his hand, its dark golden Sword Qi instantly surging, followed by an unhesitating slash. Its speed was incredibly fast!

The spot Lin Chen aimed at was precisely the waist of the Gui Ying Cat, something he was already aware of. The Gui Ying Cat’s skills were all concentrated between its waist and ribs, and if he could attack its waist and ribs to injure it, things would become much simpler!

And Lin Chen did exactly that. If the Gui Ying Cat insisted on killing Fang Xiaolian, then under the Tianyan Ancient Sword, which spewed Sword Qi, even if its waist was cleaved in two, it would gain nothing!

The beast’s instincts are keen, and the Gui Ying Cat is renowned for its reflexes and speed. It immediately sensed the dangerous aura from Lin Chen’s Sword Qi. In its mind, if it continued its attack on Fang Xiaolian, Lin Chen’s longsword might very well sever its waist!

Therefore, the Gui Ying Cat quickly made a decision, giving up on killing Fang Xiaolian. Instead, it twisted its body bizarrely in mid-air, astonishingly avoiding Lin Chen’s sword edge, and leapt directly to a nearby treetop, casting a cold gaze at Lin Chen with an expression of intense malice.

However, Lin Chen was undaunted and met its gaze directly, the dark golden Sword Qi in his Tianyan Ancient Sword constantly flickering.

At this moment, Mu Tie also arrived at Fang Xiaolian’s side, asking with concern:

”Are you alright, Xiaolian? Did you get hurt anywhere?”

Fang Xiaolian timidly and slowly came back to her senses, the fright-paled face gradually returning to normal. Then she looked at Lin Chen with complex eyes and said:

”Uncle Tie, I... I’m fine now. Just now, thanks to Lin Chen, he saved me!”

Upon hearing this, Mu Tie was also taken aback, having seen the previous scene with his own eyes. Reflecting on it now, he couldn’t quite believe that a sevenfold Martial Artist of the Divine class could suddenly unleash such incredible speed and react so swiftly, dissolving the crisis in an instant.

Mu Tie looked at Lin Chen solemnly and said:

”Thank you, Brother Lin Chen!”

Though Mu Tie had many doubts in his heart, he knew now was not the time for questions. There was still a Gui Ying Cat watching them intently, clearly not the time for conversation.

Moreover, such matters obviously touched Lin Chen’s privacy. Although Mu Tie was a forthright person, he understood well which things could be asked and which should not.

Seeing Fang Xiaolian temporarily safe, Mu Tie guarded her behind him, then coldly looked at the Gui Ying Cat, ready to fight at any moment.

The Gui Ying Cat looked down at everyone from above, then glanced at the nearby Fen Crown Grass, its gaze lingering mostly on Lin Chen.

In the Gui Ying Cat’s instincts, this young man wielding the longsword seemed quite extraordinary! The Gui Ying Cat’s instincts were keen; previously, it had been battling Mu Tie and hadn’t noticed Lin Chen. Now it appeared that, although Lin Chen’s aura was restrained, there was something noticeably powerful within it.

And for some reason, the Gui Ying Cat always felt that Lin Chen possessed something capable of threatening its very life!

Thus, after hesitating for a moment, under Mu Tie’s suspicious gaze, the Gui Ying Cat slowly retreated, and after gaining some distance, it turned and disappeared into the dense forest.

Although puzzled as to why the Gui Ying Cat would leave, Mu Tie decisively moved forward, directly picking the Fen Crown Grass, then said to the others:

”The Gui Ying Cat has temporarily left, and we don’t know if it will return, but we’ve achieved our goal. We have the Fen Crown Grass. Let’s hurry and leave here, out of the Beast Mountain Range, before it comes back for more trouble!”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, and looking at a still-frightened Fang Xiaolian, Mu Tie and the remaining two gave Lin Chen curious looks. With the strength of a Divine class Martial Artist, he could suddenly unleash such speed and presence, and with remarkable courage. While Fang Xiaolian, of the same level, panicked and couldn’t move when attacked by the Gui Ying Cat, Lin Chen erupted in an instant, even scaring off the Gui Ying Cat of the Spiritual Realm.

Everyone was very curious about Lin Chen’s strength, but seeing Lin Chen’s indifferent expression and considering it was indeed someone else’s privacy, no one spoke.

However, Lin Chen had already seen their thoughts. After pondering for a moment, Lin Chen smiled slightly and said:

”Haha! That was really dangerous just now. If I hadn’t used my ace technique, I might have been heavily injured!”

Upon hearing this, Mu Tie showed a very interested expression and asked:

”Oh? Brother Lin Chen, your methods seem quite impressive, even scaring off the Gui Ying Cat. Your speed was incredibly fast; I couldn’t keep up just now!”

”Brother Mu Tie is joking. I’m not as powerful as you! I just mastered a really impressive Divine Skill, allowing me to burst out with extreme speed over a short time. That speed just now, I could only maintain for one or two breaths; beyond that, my divine energy wouldn’t hold up! Moreover, my attack power isn’t strong. The Gui Ying Cat is just cunning; it didn’t want to risk mutual injury. If it were determined to attack, I fear I couldn’t escape either!”

Upon hearing this, everyone felt somewhat relieved. Although Lin Chen’s strength was still impressive, his explanation made it more understandable.

They didn’t know it was just what Lin Chen wanted them to understand.

Lin Chen withheld a lot, like the highest realm of the Thunder Roar Step. With Lin Chen’s strength, the duration was far beyond a few breaths, and once the Tianyan Nine Techniques were used, he wouldn’t fall far short of true Spiritual Realm experts!

Moreover, he had an even greater ultimate move: soul techniques! But soul techniques were too heaven-defying, and unless it’s an emergency, Lin Chen wouldn’t use them.

The crisis was resolved, and the goal of the journey was achieved, so the group left the Beast Mountain Range. Lin Chen noticed that after this event, Fang Xiaolian became much quieter, and on the way back, she hardly spoke—a stark contrast to before, when she would chirp incessantly, showing that this time she was genuinely impacted by Lin Chen.

Mu Tie saw everything with his eyes, feeling a bit sorry for Fang Xiaolian, yet he knew that facing some setbacks could be beneficial!
