But Xiao Hancheng also knew that Xiong Zhan wasn't the kind of person who would intentionally slack off, especially since the items taken by Qian Jin and the others were their own benefits. Moreover, he was clear about Xiong Zhan's personality—he was absolutely straightforward and said what he ant.
If Xiong Zhan were to lose his fighting ability, the situation on the scene would suddenly be reversed.
Xiao Hancheng had the strength of a Divine Sense ninth realm, capable of suppressing Qian Jin, and was confident that if he used all his ans, defeating Qian Jin would be quick. But there were not just Qian Jin alone on the field now!
There was Chu Hanrou with a Divine Sense eighth realm, and Lin Chen whose combat power was comparable to the Divine Sense eighth realm. Xiao Hancheng, though confident, was not arrogant. Although those materials and jade slips were precious, if pressed too hard, although he could leave, Xiong Zhan might be left behind.
Leaving just like this, to be honest, Xiao Hancheng still felt unwilling, but if he continued, Xiong Zhan would beco a burden. Finding another helper was impossible because the remaining disciple of the Chiyan Sect had his own tasks to do.
Frowning and thinking for a mont, Xiao Hancheng also made a decision with no choice.
He coldly looked at the three and said:
"You're amazing! We will no longer pursue the materials and jade slips of the Ice Wolf!"
After speaking, Xiao Hancheng supported Xiong Zhan to leave. Lin Chen, beside him, had flickering eyes, and he deeply wanted to keep the two of them, not because he was bloodthirsty, but because he coveted their storage rings.
However, considering Xiao Hancheng's strength, with Qian Jin and Chu Hanrou present, Lin Chen couldn't possibly kill them, right? Therefore, although he wanted to, he had to shake his head and helplessly give up this idea.
Imdiately, Xiao Hancheng and Xiong Zhan quickly turned into two red shadows, disappearing into the horizon.
At this mont, Chu Hanrou finally felt relieved, turned her head to Lin Chen, and gratefully said:
"Lin Chen, thank you so much this ti! If it weren't for you, we might have had to surrender everything, and then might have lost our qualification for this contest!"
What Chu Hanrou said was true. If Lin Chen hadn't appeared, the two of them would undoubtedly have been defeated and would have had to surrender the obtained materials and jade slips. But even if they surrendered the materials and jade slips, would those two let them go? The answer was clear, human nature is greedy. In the Tianshui secret realm, even if sothing is done, no one would criticize it, and Chu Hanrou saw this very clearly.
Lin Chen heard this and rely smiled slightly, not thinking much:
"Haha, we're fellow disciples; it's only right to help."
Chu Hanrou also smiled. She didn't know why, but she always had a special feeling towards Lin Chen, as if they'd known each other before, yet she couldn't figure out where this feeling ca from.
After a mont of silence, Chu Hanrou looked at Qian Jin again, suddenly realizing that he was frowning, looking coldly at Lin Chen as if pondering sothing.
"Brother Qian Jin, what's wrong?"
Qian Jin seed not to hear, still staring directly at Lin Chen.
At this mont, Chu Hanrou also realized sothing was wrong, but she didn't know what had happened, looking at the two with a face full of doubt.
With Lin Chen's Divine Sense, he naturally sensed that Qian Jin's gaze was constantly on him, and he began to wonder if he hadn't cleaned up well, leaving a clue.
But after thinking it through, Lin Chen still didn't think Qian Jin could recognize him, because whether it was when he stole the Millennium Stone Heart Milk or intercepted Lin Chen, Qian Jin hadn't seen Lin Chen face to face; how could he possibly recognize Lin Chen?
Always being watched by soone, Lin Chen was sowhat displeased, coldly looked at Qian Jin, and said:
"Qian Jin, is there sothing you need?"
Qian Jin heard this, squinted his eyes, pondered for a mont, then said:
"Lin Chen, honestly tell , where were you on the twenty-fifth of last month?"
Upon hearing Qian Jin's question, Lin Chen instantly thought not good, because that day was exactly when he went on a mission and then stole the Millennium Stone Heart Milk. With this question, how could Lin Chen not know that Qian Jin had already discovered the truth!
But with Lin Chen's composure, he wouldn't show it on his face, not a ripple in his expression. He even frowned and pretended to think for a mont, actually considering where he had made a mistake.
Lin Chen looked at Qian Jin without fear and calmly said:
"At that ti, I was cultivating in the cave dwelling. I don't know why you are asking this?"
Beside him, Chu Hanrou was stunned for a while and then quickly reacted. That date was the day to search for the Millennium Stone Heart Milk, so she couldn't help but look at Lin Chen. And with this preconceived notion, Lin Chen's figure imdiately overlapped with the mysterious person from that day. Though giving a slightly different feeling, Chu Hanrou could indeed see the shadow of that person from Lin Chen! But she didn't make a sound, not knowing why, hoping Lin Chen wasn't that person, thus not wanting to stand against him.
Qian Jin listened to Lin Chen's words, paused for a mont, then suddenly, his aura soared, and without warning, he slashed a sword towards Lin Chen!
Lin Chen was shocked, then his feet moved, disappearing from the spot in an instant, leaving only a faint shadow due to his speed!
The highest realm of Thunder Roar Step, Thunder Shadow!
As Lin Chen dodged, Qian Jin's sword also missed; however, he didn't seem anxious, and his gaze towards Lin Chen was cold like that of a venomous snake.
To Lin Chen, Qian Jin had already determined his judgnt, and although he had begun preparing for battle in his heart, Lin Chen pretended to be angry in his speech and questioned:
"Qian Jin! Why did you attack ?! I saved your life earlier, and this is how you repay a favor?!"
Qian Jin, hearing this, rely sneered disdainfully, then said:
"Repay a favor? Does a petty thief deserve to talk great principles with ?"
Chu Hanrou also furrowed her brows tightly:
"Brother Qian Jin! Did you misunderstand? I've seen that person, and it's not Lin Chen!"
Qian Jin snorted coldly, thought for a mont, then looked at Lin Chen and Chu Hanrou, and said:
"Fine! I'll make it all clear to you!"
"That day, as agreed, we went to kill that Earth Demon Bear, but halfway through, the bear suddenly beca violent. At the ti, I suspected that there might be an issue with the Millennium Stone Heart Milk, so I sent you to retrieve it, and sure enough, there was an incident! However, Lin Chen, do you truly understand the properties of the Millennium Stone Heart Milk?
