Chapter 2326: Chapter 2327: The End
His gaze was filled with reluctance; he hadn’t expected Lin Chen to be so decisive.
"No matter how high your talent or how strong your power, you’re just trash."
Lin Chen let out a cold laugh and then turned away.
He detested those who bullied others through power, especially when they picked on those around him. How could Lin Chen let such a person live?
"Brother Lin, I’m afraid you’ve caused a big trouble."
Tang Ming came over, seeing the current state of Jin Yuwen, he couldn’t help but shake his head with a bitter smile.
Although Lin Chen’s actions were quite satisfying, Tang Ming couldn’t help but worry about the trouble Lin Chen might face after killing him.
Although the Jin family was on equal footing with the Fang and Jiang families in Qingmu City, Jin Yuwen’s presence connected the Jin family with the Crimson Flame Sect.
This allowed the Jin family to quickly stand out in Qingmu City, hinting at becoming the dominant power in the city. This was why Jiang Wei decided to marry Jiang Ningyan to Jin Yuwen.
And the Jin family’s situation was closely linked to Jin Yuwen.
But now, with Lin Chen easily and swiftly killing Jin Yuwen on the spot, one could imagine the rage the Jin family would unleash when they found out. They would likely use the full power of their clan to find the killer.
After all, Jin Yuwen played a crucial role in the Jin family’s development, and the Crimson Flame Sect’s disciples were notoriously protective. They wouldn’t easily forgive anyone who killed their disciples, leaving one besieged on both sides.
Tang Ming rubbed his hands together incessantly across his chest, frowning in thought.
He occasionally looked up at Lin Chen, both in shock at Lin Chen’s strength and in contemplation of a solution.
"Brother Tang, don’t fret. Even if I don’t kill him, trouble would follow, so the result is the same. It’s better to kill him now rather than let him become a future threat."
Lin Chen’s expression was calm, as if there wasn’t a hint of fear in him.
This was because he had seen too many people like Jin Yuwen. Jin Yuwen wouldn’t be grateful for Lin Chen giving him a chance to live; instead, it would lead to a greater backlash.
"You have a point, but..."
Tang Ming, supported by Jiang Ningyan, continued to speak.
"Don’t worry, even if something happens, I won’t fear him. Besides, the Green Ripple Sect and the Crimson Flame Sect have been at odds for a long time. Killing one is one less to worry about."
Lin Chen sneered. In the sect, he had heard much about the enmity between the Green Ripple Sect and the Crimson Flame Sect. Seeing Tang Ming still about to speak incessantly, Lin Chen simply revealed his sect identity, saving Tang Ming from further nagging.
"So Brother Lin is from the Green Ripple Sect!"
After hearing this, Tang Ming’s face lit up with joy, and even Jiang Ningyan beside him showed a trace of surprise.
This mountain range stretched for thousands of miles, and in this vast territory, sects were numerous. But to most people, only the Green Ripple Sect and the Crimson Flame Sect were well-known, places many wished to join.
Although these two sects were famous, their discipleship requirements were stringent; without extraordinary talent, one could not enter, which made Tang Ming quite regretful.
"Now you don’t have to worry anymore, right?"
Lin Chen let out a light laugh.
"Of course not," Tang Ming sighed with relief. If Lin Chen was a disciple of the Green Ripple Sect, he would have sect protection, so Tang Ming wouldn’t worry too much.
"No wonder Brother Lin is so young yet so strong. I see; you’re a sect disciple."
After a moment of reflection, Tang Ming glanced at Lin Chen again.
"I’ve just joined the sect a few months ago, and besides, do I really look that young?"
Lin Chen rubbed his nose. One should know that he had lived quite a number of years on Earth, and although he had only been here for a few months, to say he was very young...
"Joined the sect just months ago and already this strong?"
Tang Ming laughed bitterly at this, then shook his head with a somewhat dim expression. He was nearing thirty, had been cultivating for over a decade, yet he still hadn’t broken through to the Spirit Pill realm.
But here was Lin Chen, having only cultivated for a few months, already reaching the third level of the Spirit Pill realm. How could Tang Ming not find it difficult?
Nevertheless, Tang Ming’s mood finally eased.
Lin Chen had only been cultivating for months and was already so strong, which meant his talent was very high. How could the sect easily let go of someone with such talent?
However, what Tang Ming didn’t know was that Lin Chen was being watched now, and inside the sect, there were people like Pan Su. Relying on the sect’s power was quite challenging for Lin Chen. If those people didn’t hold him back, that would already be fortunate.
"What are your plans next, Brother Lin?" Tang Ming continued to ask.
"I should head to Qingmu City."
Lin Chen’s gaze shifted to Jiang Ningyan beside Tang Ming. Previously, when Jiang Wei invited him to view the so-called treasure, he agreed to help find the Spirit Grass as a favor for Lin Chen.
And earlier, Lin Chen had defeated those priests and naturally needed to go to Qingmu City to find what the Jiang family had promised.
"What about my father..." Jiang Ningyan’s face still held some small joy, perhaps due to Jin Yuwen’s death nearby, after all, the two had a marriage contract.
"Don’t worry, it’s fine." Lin Chen smiled warmly.
Although he didn’t know Jiang Wei’s exact condition, he had killed those priests. Next, Lin Chen didn’t believe they wouldn’t seize the opportunity to escape.
"That’s good." Jiang Ningyan let out a gentle breath, her chest heaving slightly with excitement, slowly settling into calm. Even though she had some dissatisfaction with her father, Jiang Ningyan held no deep resentment.
"Since Brother Lin is heading to Qingmu City, why don’t we travel together for company?"
Tang Ming was visibly pleased as he spoke.
"That’s also fine."
Lin Chen nodded in agreement; he was unfamiliar with Qingmu City, so having someone familiar with the city as a companion would be pleasant.
"Your external wounds haven’t healed yet. When we get to the city, I’ll find some herbs to treat them for you."
Lin Chen crouched in front of Xiao Bai, gently soothing its wounds, feeling a bit saddened, his gaze dimming slightly.
It seemed like every time it followed him, it got hurt. Lin Chen bitterly smiled inside.
Woo.
As if to comfort him, Xiao Bai rubbed against Lin Chen’s chest, and then with a shift of its voice, it shrank to the size of a small cat, covered in snow-white fur, looking very adorable.
