Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2444: Chapter 2445: Fighting Spirit

”Hahaha, Lin Chen, since Xiao Ying wants to go, then just take her.”

At this moment, Zheng He heard what Xiao Ying said and no longer tried to persuade her to stay.

Recently, Zheng He found the situation quite troublesome, especially since Zhou Lie, his disciple, had acted in a manner that caused him some trouble.

If Lin Chen hadn’t intervened, Zhou Lie would have inevitably faced punishment from Zheng He, considering Lin Chen and Xiao Ying had special privileges in the eyes of the elders, different from ordinary people.

Zheng He knew all this, and unless it was an act of betrayal against the sect, things were forgivable. Like now, Zhong Wei dared to provoke Xiao Ying first, and being killed was his own fault.

Zhou Lie even dared to join in the commotion, and if Zheng He hadn’t arrived in time to stop Zhou Lie, the consequences would have been major trouble.

Even though Zhou Lie was Zheng He’s disciple, if the sect found out, it would be a big problem. Thankfully, Lin Chen didn’t pursue the matter further.

”You’d better not involve yourself in such matters next time. It’s reckless, and should the Sect Master hear about it, it would be a problem.”

After Lin Chen left, Zheng He turned angrily to Zhou Lie, his voice burning with anger yet filled with deep concern.

”Master... does he have the power to influence the Sect Master’s opinions?”

Zhou Lie hesitated slightly, then asked in curiosity.

He was originally quite unaware of the rumors in the sect, only vaguely hearing that an extraordinary figure had emerged in the past few months, but he didn’t know who it was or what had happened.

Although Zhou Lie heard some recent events, they seemed beyond his involvement, and thus he hadn’t anticipated Lin Chen, someone seemingly weaker than him, would be an invaluable asset to the sect.

”Of course, both of them have great merits to the sect. During the Sect Master’s retreat, it was declared that anyone who bothers them without cause would face serious consequences. You were bold.”

Zheng He said with displeasure, and if Zhou Lie weren’t his beloved disciple, he wouldn’t bother explaining.

Zhou Lie was shocked upon hearing this. He hadn’t expected Lin Chen and Xiao Ying, despite their unassuming appearances, to possess such strength within the sect, causing him to feel fearful and also somewhat curious.

After all, Lin Chen’s strength seemed ordinary, and he couldn’t comprehend how Lin Chen could wield such power.

”Don’t doubt; he just showed no intention to kill you earlier. Otherwise, with your strength, you wouldn’t stand a chance against him.”

Zheng He noticed Zhou Lie’s confusion and explained, having witnessed Lin Chen’s terrifying power, which not only affected Zheng He but others also felt a sense of trepidation.

It could be said that at the same age, none of them could match Lin Chen, especially considering Lin Chen’s countless deadly techniques and his formidable battle experience, which were not to be underestimated.

Even though Zheng He was highly satisfied with his disciple, it was clear that compared to Lin Chen, his disciple simply couldn’t compare.

Zheng He had great esteem for Lin Chen, and despite Zhou Lie’s discomfort, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes upon hearing Zheng He’s account.

Though he hadn’t witnessed the challenges Lin Chen faced personally, upon hearing, it was evident Lin Chen’s strength was extraordinary, not something ordinary people could confront. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Furthermore, it seemed Lin Chen hadn’t exerted his full power earlier.

Zhou Lie put aside his disbelief and fell silent, never doubting his master’s words, knowing Zheng He’s integrity wouldn’t allow room for deceit or other emotions. This objective account gave Zhou Lie insight into Lin Chen’s formidable nature.

With a gasp, Zhou Lie involuntarily drew in a cold breath, visibly shocked.

”He’s really that powerful...” Zheng He had never heard these things before, and upon hearing them, found Lin Chen’s fearsome strength quite reasonable.

”You think, in a life-and-death struggle with all means unleashed, can you really outmatch him? Just consider earlier, if it weren’t for my intervention, could you have endured more of his strikes?”

”Stop being narrow-minded; although there are many elite disciples within the Law Enforcement Hall, some people are not among them. Don’t underestimate others.”

Zheng He spoke earnestly, lightly patting Zhou Lie’s shoulder.

Zheng He had only this one disciple, resulting in exceptionally high expectations for him. Moreover, Zhou Lie sometimes had a temperament similar to his own.

”I understand, Master.”

After hearing what Zheng He said, Zhou Lie lifted his head, his raised gaze glowing with fighting spirit like lightning.

”That’s good.”

Zheng He nodded approvingly.

Zhou Lie wasn’t foolish, and he understood Zheng He’s earnest intentions. As Zhou Lie’s strength grew, Zheng He was bound to secure a place for him.

...

In the aftermath of their conversation, the two didn’t linger but swiftly moved toward their respective dwellings.

Meanwhile, Lin Chen and Xiao Ying also walked through the night, slowly heading toward the distant mountain peaks.

Along the way, Lin Chen didn’t ask why Xiao Ying wanted to venture to the peak late at night. But seeing her state, he understood Xiao Ying had an unusual objective.

From her youthful yet sorrowful demeanor, it was apparent the reason might have some connection with Pan Yan.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone out so late to reach the peaks.

Xiao Ying’s hand tightly held something, and from her small hands, a pouch was visible, whose contents were unknown.

However, she protected it carefully, and even amidst previous dangers, she cautiously tucked it into her chest. Clearly, the items inside were very important.

As to what was inside, Lin Chen didn’t inquire much.

He simply accompanied Xiao Ying, acting like a bodyguard, as they walked silently along the path, continuing their journey.
