Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2297: Chapter 2298: Encounter on the Road (Sixth Update)

Those beside him who were still unclear about Lin Chen’s thoughts might think Lin Chen felt unjust because of Liu Qinghan’s words.

After all, Liu Qinghan knew that Lin Chen was not the sect’s traitor.

”There’s no choice; even blaming the Sect Master would be in vain.”

Chen Lin patted Lin Chen’s shoulder, sighing lightly.

He finally understood why Liu Qinghan had such an attitude change towards Pan Su; there seemed to be a relationship involved here.

Even though Chen Lin was still worried about Chen Jie, given the current situation, he couldn’t blame Liu Qinghan much.

Being in a high position means naturally considering things differently, so Chen Lin could only accept it calmly now.

”As long as you understand my difficulties.”

Liu Qinghan sighed. His greatest fear was encountering irrational people like Pan Su, but fortunately, those present were not like Pan Su.

”Now that we all know, but how should we treat Chen Jie’s injuries?”

Lin Chen, at this moment, calmed his mind. Though the divine world was a place he had to go to, it felt incredibly distant now.

For him currently, the priority was Chen Jie’s injuries.

”Originally thought you’d died at Pan Su’s hands, but now that you’re back, you can help Chen Lin find the medicinal herbs.”

Liu Qinghan said to Lin Chen.

”These herbs aren’t particularly difficult to find, but require great effort. Initially, I planned to find them after resolving these matters. Now that you’re back, to avoid idle gossip, sending you out to look for them is most appropriate.”

Liu Qinghan explained to Lin Chen the general location and appearance of the herbs.

Lin Chen listened patiently, nodding lightly from time to time. After Liu Qinghan’s explanation, he glanced at Chen Jie, who was hiding behind Chen Lin, and clenched his fist.

”I’ll heal you when I return!” Lin Chen vowed determinedly.

”Let’s go with you!”

After Liu Qinghan finished, Sun Tianming stepped forward, patting Lin Chen on the shoulder, saying, ”Chen Jie is like a little sister to me; I can’t sit idly by.”

”No.”

Lin Chen shook his head. With Chen Jie’s current state, Lin Chen would not agree to Sun Tianming’s words. Given his numerous enemies, he couldn’t risk encountering other foes, nor would he allow something similar to happen to Chen Jie again.

”You should stay home and care for Chen Jie; I’ll go alone to find the herbs.”

Lin Chen spoke and, not waiting for Sun Tianming to say more, turned around, nodded slightly at the nearby Xiao Bai, and transformed into a stream of rainbow light, speeding into the distance.

”Let him go alone; if you follow, you’ll only distract him.”

Chen Lin stopped Sun Tianming, who was about to follow Lin Chen, speaking thus.

...

Lin Chen, with Xiao Bai, gradually headed into the distance.

It seemed there hasn’t been a moment’s peace these days, always busy and on the move, Lin Chen smiled bitterly.

However, despite this, Lin Chen did not complain.

”Xiao Bai, since you wander through the mountains regularly, do you know where the Sect Master said those herbs might be?”

Lin Chen asked Xiao Bai beside him.

Xiao Bai pondered briefly and then shook its animal head.

Lin Chen had already mentally prepared, so he wasn’t too disappointed. After all, being an animal, even with spirituality, doesn’t mean it knows every herb in the mountains.

But as Liu Qinghan mentioned, these herbs should grow on flat ground and exposed to sunlight for extended periods, likely in open areas of the forest.

Considering the branches and leaves were too dense, unsuitable for the characteristics of the herb known as ”Soul-returning Grass.”

With this thought, Lin Chen couldn’t help but leap onto a branch, surveying from mid-air, his gaze sweeping through the distance, seeing the landscape several miles away.

He focused on a spot and then dashed toward it, as there was a basin in the far distance.

Lin Chen moved swiftly, and the range of several miles posed no challenge. He sprinted forward without stopping or tiring.

This was the benefit of power; spiritual energy flowed smoothly within him, seemingly endless and inexhaustible.

But suddenly, as he approached a clearing in the forest, there was the clang of metal and angry human voices at the edge.

”What are you trying to do; weren’t we supposed to share equally?”

A roar came from ahead. It was a burly man with a thick beard, holding a large saber, glaring angrily at several figures ahead, his gaze mixed with rage and a hint of pain, perhaps due to the wound on his leg.

”That was the plan, but we didn’t expect your strength to be so weak. Without even reaching the Spirit Pill realm, daring to venture here is just a lesson for you.”

Before him was another sturdy man who exchanged disdainful looks with the bearded man.

”Despicable!”

Enraged, the bearded man, possibly due to the wound, lowered one hand holding the saber, clutching his chest, coughing uncontrollably.

”Brother Tang, quickly, take this pill.”

From behind him stepped a woman in her twenties, holding an emerald pill almost exuding moisture.

”No, even if I take it now, it won’t help much; you should use it to escape,”

The man raised his hand to reject the pill from the woman, mustering his weary spirit, turning to smile.

”Enough nonsense; none of you should leave with anything, including...”

A voice emerged from behind the opposing sturdy man, laughing sinisterly, ”Leave behind anything valuable, including the woman, and you can scrap your cultivation and leave.”

Standing among the branches, Lin Chen heard this and couldn’t help but sneer.

That person clearly was deceitful and malicious, with intentions of great cruelty.

Should things proceed as he suggested, leaving behind items and people and then crippling their own abilities, it was uncertain if those remaining could leave unharmed. Even if allowed to leave, without cultivation, revenge would be impossible.

More terrifyingly, the incident itself would likely have a severe psychological impact on survivors, making life especially hard.

Despite providing a choice, it was practically worthless.

”If you promise not to cripple their cultivation, then I will stay!”

The woman pressed her lips and lifted her gaze beyond the bearded man, staring at the opposing figure.
