Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2019: Chapter 2020: Mu Tie’s Funeral

Li Gang was about to leave with Qing Ling, but Qing Ling refused to go.

Qing Ling felt guilty toward Lin Chen in her heart. The more she felt that guilt here, the more she knew she needed to do more for Lin Chen. If she couldn’t do these things for him here, even she herself would end up feeling helpless.

The more helpless she felt here in all sorts of ways, the more likely it was that Qing Ling would no longer have any dealings with Lin Chen.

”Lin Chen, I...” Qing Ling still wanted to keep explaining.

”No need to say more. From now on, I, Lin Chen, and you, Qing Ling, are cut clean with one stroke. Go! The next time we meet, we’ll be enemies!” Lin Chen said painfully.

”No... it’s not like that...” Qing Ling still wanted to continue explaining.

But Li Gang felt she was far too hesitant, so he directly dragged her away.

After leaving Lin Chen, Qing Ling truly felt like her heart had already collapsed.

She was heartbroken.

”Uncle Tie, Uncle Tie, don’t scare me, you’ll be fine, right?” Fang Xiaolian was crying so hard she was like a person made of tears. Right now she had absolutely no idea what to do.

Perhaps what she was going through here was the most torturous place in her heart.

”Uncle Tie! Don’t move, I’ll heal you!”

Lin Chen really wanted to pull Mu Tie back from the brink. Even though he knew it would be very hard, he had to try. Maybe only after doing this would Lin Chen himself have no regrets.

However, Mu Tie refused him.

”Don’t waste your Spiritual Power for nothing. I...I’m already a candle in the wind. I can’t be saved... cough, cough!” Mu Tie coughed up a lot of blood. At this moment he truly felt unbearably miserable.

”No! You can! You can!” Lin Chen kept shouting in agony.

Maybe only by shouting here could Lin Chen find a chance. Yet there wouldn’t be many such chances left. Without them, Lin Chen would only feel helpless.

Once he had those chances, Lin Chen could go look for ways to solve the problem.

Although sometimes Lin Chen knew those methods were slim to begin with, if he didn’t go seek them out he would most likely have no chance at all. Precisely because of this, Lin Chen needed to keep trying.

He really wanted to use his own Spiritual Power to extend Mu Tie’s life. However, because Mu Tie had been struck by Li Gang’s ”Green Jade Sword Qi,” all the Spiritual Power in his body had already drained away. Let alone Lin Chen—even if a great immortal descended from the heavens, they would probably be unable to save him.

”Lin Chen... I...I want to ask you a favor...” Mu Tie gripped Lin Chen’s hand.

”Uncle Tie, please say it...” Lin Chen felt some regret in his heart.

He regretted very much, regretted how badly he had treated Mu Tie and Fang Xiaolian before.

Sigh, why did he have to act so arrogant before? Why put on such a cool front?

”Xiaolian... you... go wait over there for a bit, all right?” Mu Tie continued.

Fang Xiaolian sobbed as she walked to the side, still looking at Mu Tie from time to time. She was in extreme pain inside.

You had to know, Fang Xiaolian had been following Mu Tie and working with him for over ten years. She had long since regarded Mu Tie as her own father.

”Uncle Tie, please say it...” Lin Chen didn’t know what he should say, he could only stay here and listen carefully to Mu Tie’s teachings.

He himself felt a bit miserable, because if back then he hadn’t left Mu Tie’s mercenary group, maybe everything could have turned around.

”Xiaolian... is my biological daughter... you must treat her well...” Mu Tie said to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was greatly shocked as soon as he heard this.

”I-is that... real?” Lin Chen asked in surprise.

”It’s true... The reason I didn’t dare tell her is also because I wronged her mother back then... But... I really can’t take care of her anymore. You must help me keep this a secret and take good care of her, can you?” By the time Mu Tie got here, he could no longer finish his words.

”All right, all right! I will, Uncle Tie, don’t talk anymore, save your strength, later I’ll help you...”

”Good... that’s enough...”

Mu Tie smiled faintly, and then he stopped breathing.

”Uncle Tie, Uncle Tie!” Lin Chen shouted in anguish.

Fang Xiaolian heard Lin Chen’s cry and knew something bad must have happened, so she ran over and found that Mu Tie was already dead.

”Uncle Tie!” Fang Xiaolian threw herself onto Mu Tie’s corpse and burst into tears.

Meanwhile, after Li Gang obtained the Red-Eyed Vajra Beast Core, his entire temperament changed.

”Ahahaha! With this Red-Eyed Vajra Beast Core, our Black Mountain mercenary group will definitely be able to make a name for ourselves across the land!” Li Gang became much more deranged. The whole of him was already like a bloodthirsty fiend!

”Uncle Li, you... what’s wrong with you? Why did you do this? Why did you kill Mu Tie?” Qing Ling questioned him.

”Why? Do I need to report to you when I do things? Qing Ling, you defied me today. I’m telling you, this kind of thing must never happen a second time, otherwise...”

”Otherwise what? You even want to kill me too, is that it? Li Gang, let me tell you, I, Qing Ling, am not so easily bullied. When I get back, I will definitely report this to the commander.”

”Don’t you dare!” Li Gang threatened.

”Why wouldn’t I dare!” Qing Ling directly vanished, disappearing from sight.

”Vanishing Technique! Go, chase her!” Li Gang ordered his other subordinates to keep pursuing Qing Ling.

In a corner of the northern region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, near a lake, Lin Chen and Fang Xiaolian had stacked up piles of firewood. Mu Tie’s corpse was placed atop the wood.

Lin Chen lit a torch and handed it to Fang Xiaolian.

”You... you do it...” Lin Chen didn’t know what to do. Perhaps while staying here, he knew something in his heart had already been stirred. The more he felt that stirring here, the more painful he felt.

This kind of pain stayed lodged in Lin Chen’s heart, making it hard for him to pull himself out.

”I... Uncle Tie wasted most of his life, and to think that today he’s going to rest forever in this Magical Beast Mountain Range, I... I...” The more Fang Xiaolian thought of these things, the more she couldn’t stop herself from crying.

”Xiaolian, don’t cry... Uncle Tie will live well up there. He did so many good deeds while he was alive; after death he’ll definitely get some official post in the heavens. Don’t worry!” Lin Chen comforted her.

”Brother Lin Chen!” Fang Xiaolian threw herself into Lin Chen’s arms and cried bitterly.

After that, Fang Xiaolian directly flung the torch onto the pile of firewood, and roaring flames instantly rose up.

Mu Tie, this formidable hero of his generation, in the end still fell and returned to his roots, his soul returning to the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Meanwhile, after Qing Ling used the Vanishing Technique to escape Li Gang’s control, she came to Lin Chen’s side, only to see Lin Chen and Fang Xiaolian holding each other. In that instant, her heart was bleeding.

”Lin Chen... you... you really...”

Qing Ling turned away in pain and left the lakeside.
