C308 The Crystal House Chapter 167(2)
Chi!
Right at this moment, a breathtaking sword energy flashed past. Following this giant snake's miserable roar, its body was split in half.
This sudden change of events allowed the beautiful forest woman to escape death, and she hurriedly retreated.
As for the giant snake, even though its body had been cut, it was still brimming with energy. Both of its bodies turned towards Lin Chen.
"Miss, are you alright? I couldn't protect you." Not far away, the old man coughed out a mouthful of blood and rushed over with a concerned expression.
The woman from Miao Lin shook her head. She immediately looked forward and saw a handsome young man.
"He saved us." The pretty woman's eyes lit up. This young man was about the same age as her. He looked a little immature, but the power of that sword was truly terrifying. It could actually easily cut through the old man's defense that he was unable to break through.
"Thank you, Young Hero. May I ask your name?" The woman cupped her fist toward Lin Chen and said timidly.
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "It's just on the way."
The woman said, "If it wasn't for you, I would have died here. If you need anything, just let me know. I will do whatever I can to satisfy you."
However, as soon as her voice faded, the beautiful woman's expression changed. In her sight, the giant snake that was split into two suddenly rushed towards Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's soul perception was extremely sharp. Although his vision wasn't on the giant snake, he could sense every movement of the snake. He dodged to the side, dodging the attack, and at the same time, he slashed out a stunning sword Qi with his Green Cloud Sword.
Puff!
The sword energy divided the snake into four parts.
However, although the giant snake was being pushed back, its life force was extremely shocking. Ordinary creatures couldn't kill it, but Lin Chen didn't want to waste any time on it. He didn't use the sword Qi, instead, he drew out the Fallen Flame and started burning it.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...
The scorching flame contained traces of violent Qi, and it easily burned away the scales on the surface of the giant snake's body. The giant snake's body violently twitched after receiving this heavy blow, and then its body went limp. It fell to the ground, and its entire body began to shake and twitch. Then, it lost its breath and died.
"How powerful! The giant snake died just like that! Is this a Peak of Astral Reaching Stage Demonic Beast?"
The surviving guards were all dumbfounded, staring at Lin Chen as if he was a monster.
The old man came back to his senses, and his aged eyes were filled with admiration. He cupped his fists and said, "Young hero, leave your name behind."
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. We should not meet again in the future."
After saying that, Lin Chen was about to leave.
"Young hero, please wait." Before Lin Chen could walk far, the young girl suddenly called Lin Chen.
Lin Chen turned around and was a little confused. "What's wrong?"
The woman said, "We are all injured, and we want to pass through the desert that is dozens of miles away. I'm afraid it will be very difficult. So I hope you can escort us through. You're a sect disciple, right? I can give you a reward, how about it?"
Lin Chen turned around and saw the other party's injuries and poisoning. Their combat strength was sparse, and there were a lot of Demonic Beast in the Heavenspan Desert, just like what the woman had said. They were afraid that they would not be able to walk out of this dangerous desert. They could only helplessly say, "I will send you out! There is no need for the reward. "
The pretty girl had a grateful expression on her face, and she also had a very good impression of Lin Chen. She said happily, "Thank you, Young Hero. In order to not delay your time, let's leave now."
After she finished speaking, the group of people set off on their way.
On the way to escort them, Lin Chen found out that this pretty girl's name was Jing Xuexue, and she was the young lady of the Jing family of Wild Sand City, who was near the Heavenspan Desert. They had come back from afar to deliver goods, and had encountered a sneak attack from the Demonic Beast.
After leaving the Heavenly Connection Desert, Lin Chen walked for twenty miles to the west before arriving at their Wild Sand City.
"Young lady, you're back!" Soon, they arrived at their Jing family residence. When the guards at the gate saw Xue Jing, their eyes lit up and they hurried over to greet her.1
"Take them in to rest. Find a doctor. They are all injured." Jing Xue smiled and said to Lin Chen, "Mr Lin, it is already late. Why don't you rest in our Jing family for the night? Let us do our duty as landlords."
Lin Chen looked at the sky. The sun had already set, so he did not refuse and agreed.
In a quiet courtyard in Jing family, Lin Chen sat cross-legged on his bed and closed his eyes to rest.
"I still can't!" After a while, Lin Chen opened his eyes dejectedly.
Boom!
At this moment, Lin Chen faintly felt a spiritual energy collision within his soul energy.
"Someone is fighting? It's already so late? Who is it? " Unable to suppress the curiosity in his heart, Lin Chen moved towards the source of the voice.
He saw two groups of people confronting each other at the entrance of the Jing family. The one leaning against the door was an expert of the Jing family, and on the other side was a group of men in black, led by a man in his thirties.
On the side of Jing family, all of them were injured, and their expressions were dejected. It was obvious that they had suffered a lot in the previous fight. Looking at the opposite side, all of them were in high spirits, and their auras weren't as high as the Jing family's.
"Hehe, Jing Shan, it seems like you haven't had enough of the fight. If you don't hand over the land of the Jing family at the pier today, I will bring people to drink tea with you every day. Let's see how long you can last." The man looked at the middle-aged man called Jing Shan with a gloomy expression and said coldly.
At this moment, the Jing family's patriarch's face was pale and bloodless. It was obvious that he had been severely injured. He said coldly, "I won't give it to you even if I give it to the dog. Just give up."
When the man heard this, he smiled and said, "Looks like you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."
At the same time, the black-robed old man behind the man smiled evilly and said, "Why are you talking nonsense with him? Just kill them directly."
"Father, are you alright? Who beat you up to this extent!?" At this moment, Jing Xuexue walked out from the crowd.
"What a beautiful girl! Hahaha, I like your daughter. I'll return it to you when I'm tired of playing." An indescribable expression flashed across the black-clothed old man's eyes as he reached out to grab her. A majestic spiritual energy suddenly shot out from his palm, ready to suck the Crystal Snow over.
Jing Shan was just about to save his daughter when he realized that his injuries were severe and he could not move at all. At this moment, a sword energy descended from the sky and dissolved that terrifying suction force. At the same time, a young man's figure appeared.
"It's late at night, what are you doing!? If you keep disturbing me while I sleep, do you know what the consequences will be?" Lin Chen said in a flat tone. He wasn't talking to the Jing family, but to the Wang family opposite him.
"Where did this brat come from? Are you courting death?" The old man in black was slightly startled, but when he saw Lin Chen cultivating, he sneered. A Fifth Layer of Astral Reaching Stage really didn't put him in his eyes.
