Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2211: Chapter 2212: Crisis

After a long time, Sun Tianming finally let out a long breath of relief. The color returned to his face, and with the help of the medicine and Guo Zhi’s healing, the injuries on his body finally began to improve.

He stood up. The external wounds on his right arm had also somewhat recovered after this round of treatment, though he still couldn’t exert too much force.

”Luckily I had Brother Guo’s help, otherwise who knows how long it would’ve taken to patch myself up.”

Sun Tianming thanked him from the bottom of his heart. If not for Guo Zhi, never mind his injuries—whether he could have even escaped from Lu Qiuming’s pursuit would still be a question.

”We’ve known each other for this long at least. What’s the point of saying that?”

Guo Zhi instead chuckled lightly, looking utterly unconcerned. He also stood up, drew in the Spiritual Energy from the spirit stones he had placed on the ground, and then they disappeared into his Storage Ring.

”What are you two planning to do next?”

After finishing all that, Guo Zhi asked again.

Hearing this, Sun Tianming exchanged a glance with Lin Chen. From each other’s eyes, they both saw the resolve to go find Chen Jie.

”We’re heading over there.”

Lin Chen pointed into the distance. That was the place sensed by the Spiritual Energy within the ring, and also where Chen Jie was. It was just that the sensing was very weak, flickering on and off, as if the distance was very far.

”Then you two be careful. And remember not to forget to collect points, or you might get eliminated later.”

Guo Zhi waved at them as he spoke. He clearly had no intention of going with them.

Compared to running all over the place, he obviously had more important things to do.

”We will. Hahaha.”

Sun Tianming laughed heartily. As the saying goes, ”the gentleman’s friendship is as light as water.” Each of them had their own goals and wouldn’t force Guo Zhi to accompany them.

So Lin Chen and Sun Tianming didn’t linger here any longer. After thanking him again, they sped off toward where Chen Jie was.

The journey passed without further words. Their hearts were all tied to Chen Jie’s safety. Even though her strength was considerably higher than the two of them, in this place, it wasn’t something you could handle with strength alone.

Now the slanting sun was sinking in the west; the blood-red setting sun dyed the dense forest, coating this verdant world with a hazy layer of blood.

Lin Chen lifted his eyes to the sky. The blazing sun in the distance had already sunk behind the mountains, leaving only half its disk tilted above the horizon.

Hei An was about to arrive. In this dense forest, that only added more danger, making them dare not slack off.

”We’re here!”

The pull of the item grew stronger and stronger. Lin Chen could feel that the object in the ring was right nearby.

But here, Lin Chen involuntarily furrowed his brows, and Sun Tianming beside him also looked completely at a loss.

”What’s going on?”

Right in front of them stood a gigantic black bear, four to five meters tall, holding in its hand a wooden cudgel made from an ancient, thick tree trunk.

This beast before their eyes wasn’t what shocked Lin Chen and the others.

What truly stunned them was that the pull they felt was actually coming from this very black bear in front of them!

This was clearly beyond their understanding. Staring at the bear, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

”Don’t tell me this bear is... Sister Chen turned into...”

Sun Tianming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face full of disbelief.

”What do you think?”

Lin Chen replied irritably.

Sun Tianming laughed dryly, knowing himself that it was impossible. But the current situation was just too bizarre, making his expression turn grave.

”Look over there.”

Lin Chen pointed behind the black bear. On the wall of the cave there, there was a mark that had sunk several inches into the rock. Embedded in it was the Storage Ring that used to belong to Chen Jie. But at this moment, the ring was here while the person was nowhere to be seen.

”Sister Chen’s Storage Ring. Then that means she ran into danger.” Sun Tianming frowned, his heart sinking. This was exactly the situation they feared the most, and now it had really happened.

”I’m afraid it’s not that simple.”

Lin Chen stroked his chin, speaking thoughtfully: ”If she ran into unavoidable trouble, she probably wouldn’t have had time to nail the Storage Ring here. If she had the chance to dodge, then the ring should still be on her. Given the way things are now, there’s probably only one possibility...”

”She might have been trapped by someone, but didn’t want us to come rescue her, so she had the opportunity to nail this item here.”

That was what Lin Chen thought. Only this could explain why Chen Jie’s ring would appear here. It could only have been nailed up by herself. If it were someone else, they would have taken it long ago—why would they just leave it here?

”Then that means there’s only one possibility...”

”Azure Dragon Society!”

Sun Tianming and Lin Chen looked at each other and spoke through gritted teeth.

”Those people really cling like ghosts!”

Sun Tianming sneered coldly, his tone chilling. Too many of their people had come in. So searching for Lin Chen and Sun Tianming while also causing trouble for Chen Jie was not at all impossible.

They just didn’t know which member of the Azure Dragon Society Chen Jie had run into.

”But if it really is like that, then for the moment Chen Jie shouldn’t be in mortal danger—assuming they haven’t noticed that she threw this link here.”

Lin Chen sighed, staring at the stone wall in the distance. None of those Azure Dragon Society people were decent sorts. Here, there were hardly any rules. If they figured out that Chen Jie had thrown her ring here, they definitely wouldn’t let it go.

After all, in this place, there weren’t many restraints. Even if she was an elder’s daughter—if she died, then she died. Who could say who did it?

”Then let’s hurry and go find her!” Sun Tianming was clearly getting anxious.

”What’s the use of panicking now? We’re like headless flies at this point—where would we even look? Besides, with just the two of us, even if we find them, can we stand up to their numbers? If we rush in and get taken out, Chen Jie will only be in even more danger. Those people might very well make a move on her then.”

Lin Chen’s mind was crystal clear at this moment, thoughts spinning rapidly.

”Then what do we do?” Sun Tianming was truly flustered. He knew all too well what methods the Azure Dragon Society used. Chen Jie falling into their hands was extremely bad news!

”We wait.”

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes. He gazed at the distant Storage Ring, the faint glow radiating from it reflecting in his eyes, making his pupils seem eerily cold.

”Once they discover it, the Azure Dragon Society people will definitely force her to come back here and look for it. So all we have to do is lie in wait for them.”

”Our strength isn’t enough, and we don’t know how many of them there are. But with the delay of this round trip, we’ll have enough time to make our preparations.”

Lin Chen spoke as such, silently turning over possible countermeasures in his heart.
