Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1716: Chapter 1717: Snatching the Bride

”Boy, you’re courting death.” Zhao Mubai stared coldly at Lin Chen.

In his eyes, Lin Chen was still that ant from before, and he looked at Lin Chen with a few traces of disdain.

The other members of the Zhao family also glared at Lin Chen with disdain, their eyes filled with intense killing intent.

”Brother Mu, what is this about?” A middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

The speaker was Zhao Yong, Zhao Mubai’s father.

Mu Feng’s expression was somewhat unsightly; this matter was indeed difficult to explain.

On one side was the powerful Zhao family, and on the other was a pharmacist capable of crafting the Emperor Spiritual Pill.

However, Mu Feng understood the Zhao family’s nature well; if this escalated, the Zhao family would certainly not let Lin Chen go.

Although Lin Chen’s alchemy skills were strong, if the Zhao family wanted to kill Lin Chen, they would be powerless.

Sighing, Mu Feng could only say, ”Nephew Lin Chen, you should leave for now, we’ll talk about this tomorrow.”

The Emperor Spiritual Pill was a good thing, but Mu Feng also knew that offending the Zhao family would mean a catastrophe for them.

In fact, Mu Feng did this to protect Lin Chen. He really didn’t want to see Lin Chen, with such outstanding alchemical talent, die here unjustly.

However, Lin Chen didn’t seem to appreciate it. He calmly said, ”Uncle Mu, Mu Yunxue is my woman, she will not be engaged to anyone else.”

As he spoke, Lin Chen tightened his grip on Mu Yunxue’s hand.

In an instant, the hall fell silent.

Zhao Mubai, Zhao Yong, and all the Zhao family members’ expressions turned extremely unsightly.

Especially Zhao Mubai, whose eyes were filled with intense killing intent.

As for Mu Ling and the others, they looked at Lin Chen with a mocking gaze. They knew that Lin Chen had offended the Zhao family, and no matter how good his alchemy skills were, he was doomed.

The Zhao family in Vermilion Bird City had two branches, one being the branch of Zhao Xiaowen’s father in Immortal City, and the other being the branch in Vermilion Bird City.

Although both were part of the Zhao family, they were not on good terms, and even experienced a bloody war hundreds of years ago.

Though the Zhao family in Vermilion Bird City wasn’t as powerful as it used to be, its strength was still substantial.

This time, the Zhao family had brought all their experts.

Actually, Mu Feng knew that the main reason for the Zhao family’s desire for marriage was his daughter Mu Yunxue’s outstanding talent.

Mu Yunxue had been taken as a disciple by the Sect Master of Jade Maiden Peak, while Zhao Mubai had joined the Immortal Mansion. With the two families joined, both the Mu and Zhao families’ strength would rise to another level.

But now, Lin Chen suddenly intervened, openly slapping the Zhao family in the face. How could the Zhao family let Lin Chen go?

”Lin Chen, I’m sorry, but our two families had the engagement first, so I apologize.” Mu Feng took a deep breath and said.

Mu Feng knew this wasn’t fair to Lin Chen, but he believed it was the best solution.

He didn’t want to see Lin Chen die in their home.

However, Zhao Mubai, with an ominous glare, stepped forward.

”Uncle Mu, this matter isn’t so simple. He first hit my brother, and now he wants to steal my woman. We need to settle this today.” Zhao Mubai said coldly.

Although Zhao Mubai’s tone was calm, everyone could feel the sinister killing intent emanating from him.

Mu Feng’s expression became increasingly difficult. The situation was slipping from his control.

If Lin Chen didn’t leave now, he might not be able to leave at all.

At this moment, a disdainful smile played at the corner of Lin Chen’s mouth: ”So what if I hit your brother? As for Mu Yunxue, who she likes is up to her to decide. None of us can force it, but it seems she’s not very interested in you. Otherwise, she would be holding your hand instead of mine.”

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, everyone noticed that Mu Yunxue had indeed been holding Lin Chen’s hand all along.

This scene cast the entire hall into a dead silence.

Zhao Mubai’s killing intent surged, casting a chilling air over the entire hall.

Mu Feng shook his head helplessly. Although he wanted to save Lin Chen, if Lin Chen was seeking death himself, there was nothing he could do.

Zhao Mubai took a deep breath: ”So you’re saying I’m the one stealing the bride? Very well, today I’ll kill you, and Yun Xue will naturally follow me.”

As he spoke, Zhao Mubai took a step forward to make his move.

At this moment, a figure blocked him: ”Mubai, today is your joyful day, it’s not suitable for bloodshed. I’ll take care of this brat.”

The speaker was Zhao Ai, Zhao Mubai’s uncle.

Zhao Mubai nodded when he saw his uncle stepping in.

Zhao Ai’s strength was at the peak of the God Realm, just one step away from reaching the Immortal Emperor level. His intervention should make dealing with Lin Chen a non-issue.

Zhao Ai slowly approached Lin Chen, his eyes glinting coldly: ”Boy, daring to offend our Zhao family is the stupidest decision you’ve made in this lifetime.”

Seeing Zhao Ai about to act, Mu Feng quickly stood up and said to Zhao Yong: ”Brother Zhao, after all, today is the day our families are bonding, it wouldn’t be good if blood were to be shed, why not...”

Zhao Yong snorted coldly: ”Brother Mu, since it’s a joyous occasion, seeing red isn’t a bad thing, and since this kid is courting death, our Zhao family will grant it.”

Mu Yunxue’s face turned somewhat grim as she watched this unfold.

She originally thought it would only be Zhao Mubai coming, not expecting both the Zhao and Mu families to take it so seriously, causing such a stalemate.

Though she knew Lin Chen was strong, he was up against the entire Zhao family. At this moment, a faint worry emerged in Mu Yunxue’s heart.

Lin Chen sensed Mu Yunxue’s worry and smilingly patted her shoulder, giving her a reassuring look.

Watching Lin Chen and Mu Yunxue’s intimate demeanor, Zhao Mubai was nearly driven mad.

After all, Mu Yunxue was his fiancée, practically his woman. Yet here she was, being affectionate with an ’ant,’ which felt like a direct slap to his face.

”Uncle, show no mercy. I want him dead beyond recognition.” Zhao Mubai said coldly.

Zhao Ai nodded and stood before Lin Chen: ”Kid, will you commit suicide, or do I have to break each of your bones, or should I personally twist your head off?”

As he spoke, an icy aura radiated from Zhao Ai.

A wave of Evil Qi instantly enveloped the entire hall, making it hard to breathe.

This dense Evil Qi was palpable. Judging from Zhao Ai’s killing intent, Lin Chen could deduce this guy had quite the body count.

However, there was no expression on Lin Chen’s face. To him, this kind of posturing was less interesting than a true slap to the face.

”What, not talking? Then I’ll just twist your head off.”

With those words, Zhao Ai’s figure dived like an eagle.

His bony hand shot out suddenly, an icy momentum instantly locking onto Lin Chen’s throat.

This eagle claw technique possessed the power to crush stone and iron, and countless people had died miserably with their heads twisted off by this very move.
