But Lin Chen didn't care about what others thought; he was a simple and pure person, solely focused on pursuing his martial arts goals, striving to enhance his strength and do what he wanted to do.
At this mont, a smile appeared on Lin Chen's face because after checking Luo Fengping's storage ring, he found that he had slain three beasts at Divine Sense stage five, three at Divine Sense stage six, and two at Divine Sense stage seven, which significantly boosted his achievents. Moreover, all the materials from these beasts belonged to Lin Chen. Not to ntion, Luo Fengping's storage ring contained many other treasures, including forty pieces of divine crystal, all of which were now Lin Chen's!
"Hehe!"
Lin Chen was quite satisfied with this 'windfall' and even had an inexplicable thought rising in his mind: perhaps if he went on to loot everyone else as well, he would surely beco a wealthy man?
However, Lin Chen was just entertaining the idea; he dared not act on it regarding the disciples of the five major sects, as doing so would turn him into public enemy number one. Even if he successfully exited the Tianshui Secret Realm, mbers from other sects would target him, and Lin Chen didn't want to end up like that.
At this mont, outsiders perceived the situation inside the Tianshui Secret Realm to be sowhat peculiar.
Of the five major sects, the disciples of Sunlight Sect were simultaneously slaying beasts and searching for Lin Chen, while the disciples of Kaima Sect and Luo Water Sect behaved bizarrely, not doing much to kill beasts but rather seed to be gathering towards a particular location.
It seed that the real participants in this competition were only Heaven Sword Pavilion and Chi Yan Sect, and whenever mbers of these two sects encountered each other, conflicts and friction ensued.
Nonetheless, in the arena, Sword Bone and Li Changfeng both watched the match with smiles, especially when the scene shifted to Luo Water Sect and Kaima Sect, they exchanged a knowing smile, as if aware of so hidden facts. And indeed, that was the case; they had left so good things on that half-step divine beast!
At this ti, after Lin Chen sorted everything, he was about to leave when he suddenly noticed several figures flying towards him. Upon identifying who these people were, Lin Chen frowned.
But after pondering for a while, Lin Chen decided to fly towards the direction where those people were coming from.
Chu Hanrou was exceedingly anxious as she and Qian Jin swiftly flew one behind the other, looking very much like they were running away. Sure enough, not far behind them, two red figures were chasing rapidly, seemingly able to catch up with them soon.
As the distance between the four drew closer, Chu Hanrou beca even more anxious. At this mont, she suddenly noticed a figure coming towards them, and upon careful examination with her Divine Sense, she displayed a hint of joy and said to Qian Jin beside her:
"Qian Jin, soone is heading towards us; it's Lin Chen from our Heaven Sword Pavilion!"
"Lin Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin frowned. In his mind, Lin Chen was just a little guy at Divine Sense stage four who couldn't really help with the current situation. Yet he couldn't deny that he was quite jealous of Lin Chen's mastery of Sword Intent at Divine Sense stage four.
Given the special circumstances, he nodded and said:
"Let's et up with Lin Chen, then you and Lin Chen handle one, and I'll find a way to deal with the other!"
"Okay!"
With that, the two increased their speed even more, and within monts, Lin Chen ca into their view.
Lin Chen had already noticed them early on and ca straight over, quickly eting them.
Qian Jin and Chu Hanrou exchanged a glance as they looked at the rapidly approaching pursuers behind them, and said to Lin Chen:
"Hey, Lin Chen, we've run into so trouble, can you give us a hand?"
Hearing Qian Jin's commanding tone, Lin Chen couldn't help but frown.
Seeing this, Chu Hanrou, skilled at observing and reading cues, promptly said:
"Brother Lin Chen, you and I are both disciples of Heaven Sword Pavilion. We're really stuck right now; please help us out. We'll give you so compensation once the trouble is resolved!"
After hearing these words, Lin Chen's expression softened even though he still replied coldly:
"I can help you, but rember my compensation!"
Chu Hanrou nodded repeatedly, while Qian Jin seed a bit displeased, but with the pursuers already in front of them.
Two disciples from Chi Yan Sect stood before the trio, giving Lin Chen a few more glances before a rugged-looking man amongst them said roughly:
"Qian Jin, I won't waste words; hand over the materials of the Ice Wolves and the jade slip. They're not things you should be ddling with!"
Qian Jin, being proud himself, imdiately sneered without any intention to compromise, replying:
"Xiong Mu, speak with reason! That pack of Ice Wolves was clearly slain by us; why should we surrender them all at your demand? Is the Tianshui Secret Realm your family property?"
After being retorted by Qian Jin, the disciple nad Xiong Mu looked displeased, prompting the long-haired guy beside him to frown and say:
"Qian Jin, you know well that the whole pack of Ice Wolves was our target! Just because we were busy with another pack, you only served yourself by exploiting our situation. I don't believe you didn't see the divine seal marker we left!"
Before Qian Jin could respond, the long-haired man continued:
"But indeed, those Ice Wolves were slain by you, which we acknowledge. How about this, we take the materials from the Ice Wolves, and you take the jade slip! What you want is the jade slip, right? Wouldn't that be a fair division?"
"Hmph! Xiao Hancheng! You really know how to play nice here!"
Qian Jin shouted angrily, voice turning icy as he said:
"I have made myself clear; all the Ice Wolves were slain by . Whether it's the materials or the jade slip, they're both mine! You want sothing? Beat
first!"
"Hehe..."
At this mont, Xiao Hancheng, the long-haired man, also turned cold:
"Qian Jin, it seems you're still confident about yourself! How about letting
test whether your skills have improved since you lost one hand!"
"Hmph! Fights it shall be; I'm not afraid of you!"
In an instant, tension soared, and the atmosphere grew tense and confrontational.
Through their conversation, Lin Chen also roughly understood the situation.
