Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2171: Chapter 2172: Past Events

”I beg the Sect Master to save him.”

”Alright.”

Liu Qinghan nodded slightly, his palm moved without any visible peculiarity, but when he placed his palm on Sun Tianming’s, a mixture of azure and white aura began to overflow from Sun Tianming’s body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As Liu Qinghan’s hand gradually distanced, the aura slowly escaped from Sun Tianming’s body. As it overflowed, Sun Tianming’s complexion clearly improved, regaining its original color.

And thereafter, a centipede-like poisonous creature, about an inch long, emerged from his navel.

It was still alive, twisting and struggling as if wanting to return to Sun Tianming’s body.

With a hiss, the creature was refined by Liu Qinghan, burned clean with not a drop of liquid left behind.

”The toxin in his body has been fully cleared, he will wake in some time.”

Liu Qinghan pondered for a moment before saying, ”Find a place for him to rest, and do not let anyone disturb him.”

This was the greatest help Liu Qinghan could offer Sun Tianming.

”Thank you, Sect Master.”

Several people responded in unison, and then exited the hall at Liu Qinghan’s gesture, leaving only Chen Lin inside.

Lin Chen carried Sun Tianming, frowning in contemplation. He was unsure whether the Cultivation Technique he was practicing could be practiced by Sun Tianming. If so... Lin Chen’s eyes flashed.

”If you can’t find a place to stay now, you can come to mine first.”

Chen Jie spoke softly, thinking Lin Chen was worried about a place to stay. After all, Lin Chen’s place was filled with blood, and Sun Tianming’s possible lodgings might be disturbed by the Azure Dragon. Thus, Chen Jie’s place was the most convenient.

After a brief thought, Lin Chen nodded and followed Chen Jie to her place.

Chen Jie’s residence was halfway up the mountain, planted with flowers of various colors, appearing from afar like a flower garden.

Even before reaching it, a faint fragrance came forth, invigorating Lin Chen and relaxing his whole body.

The interior was simply furnished, with just a square table, wooden bed, and wardrobe placed around the room.

After placing Sun Tianming beside Chen Jie’s bed, Lin Chen finally sat in the chair.

”I’ve been here for a short time and have troubled you with many things.”

Lin Chen slightly cupped his fist, his gaze sincere. Thinking back on these events, though many were self-inflicted troubles, he still relied on Chen Lin and others for help, or it would indeed have been quite problematic.

”No need for that, like when we went to Kaoshan Sect, it was thanks to you that we escaped.”

Chen Jie smiled faintly, ”Besides, you didn’t do anything wrong this time. The Azure Dragon is a tumor that the sect should have dealt with long ago; otherwise, how did it come to this?”

Lin Chen nodded thoughtfully, realizing how rampant the Azure Dragon truly was, and how their multitude and vicious methods made ordinary people hesitant to provoke them.

”But I’m curious, why does the sect have a strange rule against killing, even if someone threatens you?” Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

In his view, if threatened, eradicating the threat completely is the best method. So why let them grow strong and subsequently become a problem?

”This dates back many years.” Chen Jie sighed lightly.

”Back then, the sect had no such rule. Sparring was fine, and serious threats could be defended against. Until something happened, leading the sect to change the rule.”

”What happened?” Lin Chen was curious.

”A disciple back then constantly found ways to provoke others into confronting him, either through bribery or agitation, leading to frequent trouble for him.”

”What? Someone like that existed, and why did he do it?” Lin Chen was startled, unable to fathom the reason.

Chen Jie laughed coldly, ”He used the excuse of self-defense against these troubles to ruthlessly kill others. Within half a month, the sect lost dozens of disciples, all with significant potential.”

”But they were always the ones who initiated trouble, and upon investigation by the disciplinary hall, it was found he was a Crimson Flame Sect spy, aiming to deplete the sect of promising disciples.”

”What a tactic!” Lin Chen couldn’t help but clap in amazement, then continued to ask, ”What happened to him afterwards?”

”Now he is confined in the water prison, accompanied daily by snakes, insects, rats, neither able to live nor die.” Chen Jie’s eyes gleamed coldly.

The water prison was the Green Ripple Sect’s jail, used for severely punished individuals. There, life, and death were impossible. Each day was spent in darkness, feeling creatures crawl over the body.

Even the most resilient individual, after being there for no more than seven days, would be driven mad.

”Ever since then, the sect changed its rule, prohibiting internal killings to protect the weaker disciples. But who could foresee this Azure Dragon emerging...” Chen Jie sighed helplessly.

Lin Chen finally understood, nodding slightly at the rule, albeit extreme, but better than further spy infiltration.

Yet this method wasn’t flawless, and the Azure Dragon exploited the loophole.

Living with impunity in the sect, bullying the weak became a routine, causing resentment towards the Azure Dragon among sect disciples.

Despite this, they hadn’t committed any heinous deeds to warrant disciplinary intervention, thus leading to the present situation.

”But now, things should be quite peaceful for a while.”

Chen Jie stretched, as Lin Chen’s severe methods instilled fear, preventing Azure Dragon members from interfering, though his acquaintances might still face trouble.

”Later, I will bring Lin Wan’er over; staying alone outside might lead to retaliation, and my place is safer.”

Chen Jie pondered momentarily and decided.

”That would be wise; leaving her alone is indeed worrisome.”

Lin Chen intended as such, ensuring safety here, being that Chen Jie was the daughter of an elder, deterring any reckless actions in this place.

Once they were settled, Lin Chen need not worry excessively about the Azure Dragon. His current strength made it difficult for ordinary individuals to cause him trouble.
