Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2303: Chapter 2304: Roadblock

Lin Chen’s steps toward the front came to a halt, and he was momentarily dumbfounded.

Then he raised his hand and pointed at his nose, asking with some confusion, "Are you talking to me?"

He was very puzzled; from the beginning, after those people had identified themselves, he was ready to leave, but why was the elder blocking his way?

"If not you, then who else could I be talking to?"

The elder frowned, his gaze at Lin Chen was extremely unfriendly, as if greatly dissatisfied with him.

And this was indeed the case.

In Qingmu City, the Jiang family was considered a large clan with many members; outsiders wouldn’t dare to show disrespect, especially to the elder of the Jiang family standing before him.

But since Lin Chen didn’t acknowledge them when they arrived and tried to leave without greeting, the elder felt slighted and naturally displeased.

"Oh, so I stopped. Do you have business with me?"

Lin Chen’s eye corner lifted, his expression somewhat unfriendly. He had always disliked their way of doing things, but due to internal clan matters, he couldn’t intervene. Now, this elder jumped out to cause trouble for Lin Chen, so Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t be polite.

"This matter has nothing to do with Brother Lin; if you’re looking for trouble, come at me instead."

Seeing the elder blowing his beard and glaring fiercely at Lin Chen, nearly ready to act, Tang Ming emerged from the side, stood in front of Lin Chen, and resolutely addressed the elder.

"I’ll deal with you later, but first, this one here needs to be investigated!"

The elder’s eyes narrowed, a chilly glint flashing. He glanced backward toward Jiang Wei’s location, and seeing him motionless, the elder felt reassured.

He waved his hand, a net-like thin wing of Spiritual Energy appeared, and as he swung it, the Spiritual Energy condensed into a large net as it flew forward.

This was the elder’s spiritual technique, the Binding Spell.

Though it doesn’t seem powerful, once someone is bound, it prevents them from expelling Spiritual Energy and restrains their body movement.

It’s quite useful for trapping someone.

A net.

The large net came from all sides, tightly enveloping Lin Chen’s form. In an instant, it contracted, the substantial net suddenly taut, trapping Lin Chen’s entire body within.

At the same time, Tang Ming’s body was also separated, almost as if the net had a consciousness, confirming its target.

The little white creature beside him was unaffected. It showed its sharp teeth, snarling at the elder.

"A beast is just a beast."

The elder didn’t pay any attention to the small, seemingly cute creature, coldly laughing as he slowly walked towards Lin Chen.

These words evidently provoked the little white creature, which, without Lin Chen’s gaze stopping it, might have reverted to its fierce nature.

"Father, let him go, I’ll go back with you!"

Jiang Ningyan seemed anxious, seeing how Lin Chen was irrelevant to the matter, and remembering his act of saving her, she naturally couldn’t forget the debt.

"Don’t worry, he won’t be harmed, but this person is too unfamiliar; we must investigate thoroughly first."

Jiang Wei spoke calmly; though he wouldn’t act rashly like the elder due to feeling slighted, as the Clan Leader and a father, he needed to question those who accompanied his daughter.

"Tell me, who are you, why with Ningyan and the others, and what do you intend to do?"

Jiang Wei approached Lin Chen, scrutinizing him, trying to discern something from his calm demeanor.

After a moment, he frowned.

Lin Chen was exceptionally calm, his expression undisturbed as if nothing could evoke an emotional fluctuation within him.

Even though trapped, his deep eyes displayed no fear at all.

"I don’t know exactly what you want to ask."

Lin Chen’s casual posture, with hands behind his head, his tone extremely calm, acting as if he didn’t take Jiang Wei seriously.

"Are you a spy sent by the Fang family to hinder the marriage alliance?"

Jiang Wei, seeing Lin Chen’s tranquil expression, pondered before asking.

Qingmu City had three major clans, each occupying a territory with comparable strength. Originally at peace, the Jin family’s growing influence, especially their young member chosen by the Crimson Flame Sect, pressured both the Jiang and Fang families.

For clan benefit, Jiang Wei thought of marrying Jiang Ningyan to the Jin family’s youth to maintain relations and deter suppression.

Yet, Jiang Ningyan favored the young Tang Ming, who had a decent personality but vastly different strength.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wei’s gaze on Lin Chen grew colder.

The stranger before him was highly likely sent to sabotage the marriage, for only by sharing the plight could the Jiang and Fang families unite.

"Fang family?"

Lin Chen shook his head, then chuckled lightly, veins bulging as if about to burst from his body.

Emerging from these veins, a potent force met the netting, and a snapping sound resonated from it.

The continuous sounds caused the elder’s eyebrows to twitch, his hands weaving complex signs.

The signs formed, causing the net to tighten further as if trying to suppress Lin Chen’s erupting force.

Lin Chen remained calm, faintly smiling, his demeanor belittling the elder, whose white beard puffed with frustration, strengthening his grip.

Yet Lin Chen was unbothered; the brief contact revealed the technique’s peculiarity.

It restrained his Spiritual Energy, but the physical power, though also restricted, wasn’t as strong.

Due to Lin Chen’s already tough physique, the technique wasn’t very effective against him.

With a light shout, the net burst, scattering, and disappearing in the air without a trace.
