Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2147 - 2148: Elder in Black

Just at the instant when Du Yuan's reaction was slightly slower, Lin Chen accelerated his pace. He maneuvered within the woods and darted to Du Yuan's front, then turned around and stood there.Du Yuan's gaze was still lingering to the side, but after the figure disappeared, his eyes quickly looked ahead. However, in this brief delay, his figure had already rushed toward Lin Chen due to inertia.

This occurred within a fraction of a breath; Lin Chen's gaze was grim as he raised his sharp sword high. The cold light from the sword shone, the chilling glow causing Du Yuan's legs to tremble uncontrollably.

Yet Lin Chen ignored all this, heaving the sword down with formidable force, as if laden with a thousand pounds, hacking towards the center of Du Yuan's forehead.

"How dare you, kid!"

Suddenly, a furious shout came from afar. Simultaneously, a streak of cold light broke through the void, carrying an imposing presence, sweeping towards Lin Chen's wrist!

Judging by this momentum, if struck, it seemed likely to pierce through Lin Chen's hands!

"Elder, save me!"

Upon hearing the voice, Du Yuan couldn't help but feel joyous. His original intention was to trap Lin Chen here for a moment. Now that the chief had arrived, given that person's power, Du Yuan certainly wouldn't die here.

But Lin Chen remained indifferent; Du Yuan had destroyed the ice spirit grass with profound Spiritual Energy. Without this plant, Sun Tianming might fall into danger. Under no circumstances could Lin Chen let the person in front of him go!

His eyes glared angrily, and the sword in his hand continued to thrust downward. With only seven inches remaining above Du Yuan's head, the cold light approached, ready to pierce through Lin Chen's wrist regardless.

Whoosh!

At this moment, from another direction of the cold light, a long whip swung over. The long whip seemed to have eyes and bypassed Lin Chen's body. Then the end of the whip slapped onto the streak of cold light.

"Ah!..."

A tragic scream echoed through the mountains and forests. Following the source of the sound, it was discovered that the cold light, after being struck, had its momentum diverted, and instead stabbed towards Du Yuan.

The scream hadn't yet faded, and Lin Chen's sword had already reached, penetrating Du Yuan's head effortlessly, smoothly slicing down without any delay. After a single slash, Du Yuan's body shockingly split into two halves!

The internal organs fell away from Du Yuan's body, tumbling out one after another.

All this happened with such speed and urgency, from start to now, it was only a matter of a few breaths, causing the source of the cold light to take a moment before reacting.

"Yuan'er!" A figure darted out from afar.

It was a silhouette wrapped in black clothes, slightly hunched, with exposed white eyebrows, indicating an elderly person.

"Mhm..."

As the elderly person appeared before Du Yuan's mutilated corpse, a beautiful woman simultaneously stepped out beside Lin Chen.

The woman wore a blood-red thin garment, through which her snow-white skin was visible. Holding a long whip in one hand, she covered her lips with the other, walking with graceful steps, her sultry movements exuding an indescribable allure.

Lin Chen recognized her; she was the beautiful woman he had encountered in the main hall of the Green Ripple Sect. He just didn't understand why she appeared here now.

"It's you, He Ling."

Upon seeing clearly who had arrived, the black-clad elder couldn't help but grit his teeth in rage, glaring at the beautiful woman with eyes wide open, uttering each word angrily.

"Well, a familiar face indeed." He Ling walked to Lin Chen's side, gently resting her elbow on his shoulder, and her chin on her curved arm, examining the elder.

"What a pity, losing both wife and soldiers."

He Ling sighed sarcastically. As she spoke, her sweet breath blew onto Lin Chen's ear, causing his cheeks to flush. He bit his tongue lightly to clear his mind as the desire gradually subsided.

"This time I've been duped!"

The black-clad elder glared at Du Yuan's scattered remains with frustration, and his body radiated anger. His gaze towards Lin Chen seemed as though he wanted to devour him.

However, the elder knew it was impossible. He Ling's Spiritual Energy was firmly locking onto him. Their cultivations were close enough, and they were on Green Ripple Sect's territory. Furthermore, Lin Chen was a wildcard in this situation, and it seemed the elder couldn't stay.

Thus, after his words fell, the elder maneuvered backward.

"In such haste, where are you heading?" He Ling laughed seductively, straightening up from Lin Chen's shoulder. She chased in the elder's direction, brandishing the long whip as she moved.

Their figures drifted further between the woods, accompanied by repeated booms and bursts of glimmering light.

Lin Chen paid no heed to all this; he walked up to Du Yuan, crouching down. On Du Yuan's body, he could see the side of the chest hit by the previous cold light was covered in a pitch-black color.

The color was extremely dense, emitting a putrid stench, far worse even than Sun Tianming's situation.

After watching for a moment, Lin Chen stood up. The conditions of these two were similar, undoubtedly the same technique had been used.

But why target Sun Tianming and lure him out? Lin Chen couldn't fathom, as since arriving at Green Ripple Sect, he had only interacted with people from the Azure Dragon Society and no one else, leaving the reason unclear.

Lin Chen sighed lightly; this wasn't the time to dwell on such matters. He headed towards the cold pool. Earlier, Du Yuan had held the ice spirit grass with the richest Spiritual Energy at its center, but perhaps some remnants might exist in other places.

But when Lin Chen submerged to the bottom of the pool, his face darkened ominously. In the waters, all the ice spirit grass was completely ruined, and he couldn't find even a single intact plant.

"What an excellent trick!" Lin Chen sneered coldly, astonished at Du Yuan's relentless methods.

"What excellent trick?"

A clear voice echoed; Lin Chen slightly raised his head to find He Ling descending from the sky in the distance. She walked up to Lin Chen's side, commenting: "That old ghost has many tricks, but surprisingly he escaped."

"Let's go, it's time to return." He Ling took Lin Chen's hand, urging him to lead back to the sect.

"No, I can't." Lin Chen frowned, as the ice spirit grass hadn't been found, returning now would put Brother Sun at risk.

"I was teasing you." He Ling chuckled lightly, "If I hadn't deceived you to come out, how could we draw out the mastermind behind this? Clearly, these people are targeting you."
