Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2347: Chapter 2348: Overbearing

"Oh? So you’re Lin Chen?"

Jin Ming withdrew his earlier aura and straightened up completely, looking like a refined scholar from Fang Ya’s stories. He swept his gaze up and down Lin Chen, but in his eyes a cold gleam likewise burst forth.

"That’s right, he is Lin Chen."

Behind Jin Ming, a figure stepped forward at this moment—a man whose voice sounded quite familiar.

Hearing that familiar voice, Lin Chen tilted his head slightly and saw a man; it was actually Jiang Liang, whom Lin Chen had seen previously at the Jiang family.

At this time Jiang Liang was following behind Jin Ming, and even his manner had become arrogant, as if Jin Ming were his master.

In fact, that was pretty much the case. Jiang Liang had long since prepared himself to trail after Jin Ming to make a living.

After all, by following him, there might be a chance to hitch himself in some way to the Crimson Flame Sect.

Precisely because of this, when Jiang Wei wanted to marry Jiang Ningyan into the Jin family, Jiang Liang was naturally the first to agree, and he really did obtain some benefits.

The benefit was that his cultivation, which had been lingering in the Spirit Pill Realm for a long time, broke through and rose to the Spirit Fetus Realm.

So now, with Jin Yuwen dying a violent death, not to mention Jin Ming—even Jiang Liang was seething with anger. Only then did he come together with Jin Ming to the Fang family to demand people and seek justice.

"What, you looking for me about something?"

Lin Chen ignored the meaningful looks and signals from Fang Lin behind him. He stood in front, and after giving Jiang Liang a mocking glance, he turned his eyes back to Jin Ming.

"About something? You tell me. My son’s life was taken by you lot—how should this debt be settled?"

Jin Ming laughed in his fury; the anger he’d been suppressing all along suddenly exploded with Lin Chen’s appearance. It made his eyes bloodshot, shot through with veins. Those scarlet pupils fixed on Lin Chen with an icy stare.

Lin Chen met that gaze without shock or fear, only with a bit more doubt in his heart.

Jin Yuwen was already dead, his corpse left in the wilderness. How did this Jin Ming know that Jin Yuwen had been killed by him?

"And how can you be so sure we’re the ones who did the wounding? And you even hurt my friend to this state!"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and a faint flame of anger sprayed out of his gaze.

Under the pouring of that anger, the atmosphere at the scene grew even more tense, on the verge of erupting. Off to the side, Fang Lin looked extremely anxious, and in his urgency there was also a hint of regret.

"Didn’t I tell you to take little brother Lin to the back to hide? How come you brought him out now?"

Though Fang Lin lowered his voice, the anger in it was unmistakable. That annoyed questioning fell upon the maid who had just gone shouting for Lin Chen, leaving her a bit aggrieved.

"I—I couldn’t stop Young Master Lin..."

As she spoke, the maid’s tone carried a bit of choking; she lifted a hand to her eye corners, tiny tears welling up.

"You can’t blame Xiaohuan, it was Lin Chen who insisted on coming."

Fang Qianqian also let out a soft sigh; she patted the maid’s back while explaining to Fang Lin.

"Ah, what’s the point of this suffering."

Fang Lin sighed long, looking at Lin Chen’s back, his eyes filled with an extremely complex emotion that was hard to fathom.

If anything happened to Lin Chen right in front of him, what then? Wouldn’t Fang Lin drown in guilt?

"What he wants to do, we can’t stop him."

Fang Qianqian shook her head, then said again, "Besides, even if we hide Lin Chen, if they really start a fight, Father, can you hold them off?"

Fang Qianqian lifted her beautiful eyes, staring at Jin Ming in the distance, whose killing intent was overflowing. The Qi Force flowing around him made one feel an extremely dangerous aura.

This aura was something Fang Lin right now was far from being able to match.

"What? Still trying to quibble?"

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, Jin Ming let out an even colder laugh, his expression icy to the extreme. He immediately lifted his foot and stomped down on the fallen Tang Ming on the ground. Bones under that stomp cracked audibly.

Then a very weak sound rang out—it was Tang Ming, who had already been gradually sinking into unconsciousness. That stomp jolted a pained groan out of him.

Lin Chen’s face sank. This Jin Ming before him was truly despicable; no wonder he had such an arrogant son. Lin Chen gave a cold laugh.

"Let him go. This has nothing to do with him. As for me, I’ll go out with you and settle this outside."

After a brief silence, Lin Chen finally spoke slowly.

How Jin Ming had learned that he killed Jin Yuwen was not important right now. What mattered was that Jin Ming clearly believed the deed was Lin Chen’s doing. Even if Lin Chen talked till the heavens broke, it would be hard to change that.

"So you’re finally admitting it?"

Only then did Jin Ming withdraw his foot. Hearing Lin Chen’s words that sounded like an admission, his heart couldn’t help but wrench in pain.

Jin Ming had only this one son, naturally doted on him to the skies in daily life, and the boy was also highly valued by the Crimson Flame Sect, with boundless prospects. Yet now his life had ended in the netherworld—how could Jin Ming not be enraged?

"Come out with me!"

As he spoke, Jin Ming kicked Tang Ming back toward Lin Chen. That kick carried heavy force, sending Tang Ming’s more than a hundred jin of body flying.

Lin Chen’s face was as calm and dark as still water. He raised a hand and caught Tang Ming from midair, then passed Tang Ming over to Fang Lin behind him.

"Please, help me take care of him for a while..."

Lin Chen pulled out several medicine bottles from his Storage Ring. All these items were for treating injuries. That Disciple of the Demon Sect earlier seemed to hold a decent status within his sect, so the supplies in his ring were extremely abundant.

"Little brother Lin, you’d better not..." Fang Lin took the items, but he also grabbed Lin Chen’s hand.

Yet he’d just managed to get half a sentence out when Lin Chen pushed the old man’s hand away with one hand, then shook his head and said, "Some things, if they ought to be done, must be done."

As Lin Chen spoke thus, he turned around again.

The man was killed by him; although he did not regret it, the consequences that had now borne fruit would have to be borne by him. Hiding behind the Fang family—even if that could get him through this calamity, the Fang family’s strength would inevitably suffer heavy damage.

"Good, you’ve got guts!"

In the distance, upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, Jin Ming couldn’t help but nod in praise.

However, it wasn’t that he admired Lin Chen for taking responsibility alone. It was just that with Lin Chen going out with him, Jin Ming wouldn’t have to deal with Fang Lin in front of him.

Though Fang Lin’s strength was nothing to fear, the Fang family had at least existed in Qingmu City for so many years; who knew how much hidden foundation they possessed?

Right now the Jin family was at the height of its power. He had no wish to end up in a mutual-destruction standoff with Fang Lin and the others.
