Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Wu Ya's face suddenly changed: "You liar, you said you would release my daughter after getting the map."

"Don't worry, entering the ancient tomb requires the blood of your Li family. Once I extract the blood and open the door, I'll let your daughter go back." Wu Ming laughed coldly.

"I've heard the ancient tomb is full of traps. Lin Chen, you can pave the way for us. Rest assured, if you survive, I can share some treasures with you." Wu Ming laughed.

Lin Chen stared icily at Wu Ming. The other's demeanor was very arrogant, as if he was already assured of victory.

"Zhang Yu, Geng Hao, there's no need for you two to get involved. You should leave." Lin Chen said in a deep voice.

"Lin Chen, do you think we're those kind of people? Since we're brothers, we live together and die together."

"Exactly, Lin Chen, I, Geng Hao, promised the little flower girl to take good care of you. How can I leave on my own?" Geng Hao also said.

Seeing the determination in their eyes, Lin Chen shook his head helplessly: "You guys…"

Wu Ming laughed coldly: "Alright, we'll set out for the ancient tomb tomorrow. Tonight, you can rest in the village."

This was destined to be a sleepless night, with Li Yunfei and Lin Chen sitting on the hillside.

"Lin Chen, I know you're staying here because of me. You should leave. Just knowing you, even if I were to die now, I'd feel happy." Li Yunfei said anxiously.

"How could I let you die? Don't worry, neither of us will die." Lin Chen said nonchalantly.

"You don't know how cruel those people are, and I heard from grandpa that our Li family's ancient tomb is full of traps, and no one who goes in ever comes back out." Li Yunfei said anxiously.

Lin Chen smiled faintly: "Don't worry, everything is under my control. I must enter that ancient tomb."

"You fool." Li Yunfei, unable to convince Lin Chen, stamped her feet in anger.

"It's getting late, you should go back inside and sleep." Lin Chen chuckled.

"No, I want to stay with you until dawn." Li Yunfei tightly clutched Lin Chen's arm.

Lin Chen gave a helpless smile: "Silly girl, you'll have plenty of chances in the future. Auntie is in the room, go and keep her company."

"Alright, Lin Chen, you must promise me not to die tomorrow." Li Yunfei said seriously, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Chen.

"Alright, alright, I promise you." Lin Chen made an OK gesture.

"Pinky swear!" Li Yunfei, like a child, said uneasily.

Lin Chen nodded, and their little fingers hooked together.

Watching Li Yunfei enter the house, Lin Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, then looked behind him coldly and said: "Do you enjoy spying, Your Highness the Fifth?"

Wu Ming emerged from the bushes, smiling faintly at Lin Chen: "I didn't expect your perception to be so strong. I'm not interested in watching you two whisper sweet nothings, just wanted to have a chat with you."

"Chat? What do we have to talk about?" Lin Chen said, looking at Wu Ming indifferently.

A cold smile crossed Wu Ming's lips: "In your heart, I'm an unforgivable villain, right?"

"Betraying your master, what do you think?" Lin Chen said coldly.

"Hahaha, those in the medicine sect really know how to twist the facts." Wu Ming suddenly laughed.

Seeing Wu Ming's demeanor, Lin Chen was momentarily stunned: "What, are you going to tell me you're innocent?"

Wu Ming snorted coldly: "Innocent isn't quite right, but I cannot bear the accusation of betraying my master."

"Indeed, I did kill my master and took the scriptures, but it wasn't a sneak attack; I killed him by my strength." Wu Ming said coldly.

"By strength?" Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.

"After joining the medicine sect, due to my exceptional talent, I became the Vice Hall Master's last disciple and qualified to comprehend the 'Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor.' Actually, my master only comprehended the first half of it, while I comprehended the entire Canon." Wu Ming continued to speak.

"You comprehended the entire Canon?" Lin Chen's expression slightly changed upon hearing this.

Wu Ming smiled faintly: "Surprised? No one would have thought that the one with the greatest talent in the medicine sect would turn out to be a traitor."

"But after comprehending the 'Inner Canon,' my master wanted to obtain the second half of it from me, so he secretly tried to kill me." Wu Ming's voice carried a chill.

"Do you know what it feels like to have a dagger from someone you trust most embedded in your chest?" Wu Ming asked coldly.

Lin Chen furrowed his brows upon hearing this. He had not expected the situation to be like this.

Wu Ming said lightly: "He calculated much but never expected my heart was on the other side, so I didn't die and killed him with a palm strike, then left the medicine sect."

Lin Chen looked at Wu Ming calmly, without any emotional shift on his face.

Although Lin Chen was reluctant, he knew this was likely the truth.

Wu Ming sighed: "I really liked the medicine sect, liked the smell of herbs, and the abundant spiritual energy there, but it was my place of heartbreak."

"The medicine sect's mission is to aid all life, but what have you done? One life after another was taken by you, making them your test subjects." Lin Chen said coldly to Wu Ming.

"The people I killed were all those who deserved to die. Instead of letting these scum live, it's better they contribute to our great medical cause." Wu Ming said with a smile.

Lin Chen somewhat agreed with Wu Ming's words, knowing upon investigation that those who died were all people who had committed evil deeds. Some women killed their husbands for insurance money, and some, despite having AIDS, still frequented places of debauchery to sleep with men…

Lin Chen was momentarily speechless towards Wu Ming. His first impression was that Wu Ming was a villain, yet every action seemed justifiable.

Wu Ming looked at Lin Chen and said: "Actually, you should be considered my junior brother. Your talent is just like mine was, so I sincerely invite you to join the Dark Alliance. We are the future masters, the future hope for humanity."

Lin Chen did not expect that after saying so much, Wu Ming's real purpose was to recruit him.

"I'm sorry, I appreciate your offer, but I'm not interested in hiding in the shadows." Lin Chen said indifferently.

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Wu Ming did not get angry and instead laughed: "Sometimes the truth needs to go through some darkness to be recognized by the public. Lin Chen, by joining us, you'll discover what a great thing you're doing."

"Is that so? But I don't see the greatness in what you're doing." Lin Chen shook his head.

Lin Chen could never agree with the actions of the Dark Alliance, hence he had no interest in joining forces with them.

Wu Ming sighed: "Since you cannot be of use to me, I will have to destroy you. I hope you have good luck tomorrow."

"Rest assured, I have a nickname, 'the indestructible cockroach.' I won't die." Lin Chen said with a smile.
