Chapter 1353: Chapter 1373: One Must Follow the Principles in Life and Work_1

"What’s the plan now?"

Facing Lin Chen’s question, Gongsun Hai turned his head, "Big brother, I’ll hold off the scorpion, you go and pluck!"

Gongsun Tu grimaced, decisively, "Fine!"

Gongsun Hai threw out a small bell, which rose into the air, hovering above his head. A golden bell shadow fell, shielding him.

He flew toward the scorpion, while Gongsun Tu swooped from high above towards the Milun Peach Tree.

The scorpion shot out once more from the grass, attacking Gongsun Hai, directly crashing onto the golden shadow of the bell, which seemed solid, emitting a loud bang.

Gongsun Hai pointed with his finger, launching a sharp sword qi directly at the black scorpion, producing a sound like clashing gold and iron.

This sword qi could even penetrate a mountain peak directly, but it could not penetrate the scorpion’s shell. It simply knocked the scorpion flying off.

The scorpion landed back on the ground, rolled over, and charged at Gongsun Hai once more.

"What kind of scorpion is this? So small yet so powerful, my sword qi can’t even hurt it!"

Liu Qianyun uttered in shock, her gaze once again fell on Gongsun Tu who was quickly plucking the Milun Peaches, her eyes suddenly becoming anxious.

"He has already plucked more than half of the Milun Peaches, and he is still plucking!"

Lin Chen was composed, "We shouldn’t stress over two different things at the same time, it’s the same even if he plucks them all before sharing with us."

Liu Qianyun looked worried, whispering, "Once the fruits enter their pockets, they might not be willing to share them with us!"

Lin Chen chuckled, "We agreed to split it equally. We should stick to that, right?"

Liu Qianyun was helpless, she couldn’t act alone, she could only watch as Gongsun Tu plucked all the Milun Peaches and put them into his spatial ring.

In the distance, Zhuo Fan cursed quietly, "That naive fool, he actually believes the Gongsun brothers. Once the Peaches enter their pockets, it’s like money going into a Pixiu’s belly, it’s gone for good!"

Qi Jun’s gaze landed on Lin Chen, his eyebrows furrowed, "That youngster seems pretty young, and he’s from the first generation of the Baihe Immortal Sect, this situation seems a bit complicated."

Zhuo Fan sneered, "No matter how complicated, he’s just a human immortal. I think he’s just naive. When Gongsun brothers leave later, we will follow them and take them down!"

Qi Jun nodded, "Let’s watch first, the Baihe Immortal Sect also has two human immortals, they won’t let them get away so easily."

Zhuo Fan chuckled, "It would be best if they fought first, to a point of mutual exhaustion, at that time we can reap the benefits."

In the valley, Gongsun Tu examined the Milun Peach Tree, satisfied that nothing was left. The corner of his mouth curled into a cold, triumphant smile.

The individuals of the Baihe Immortal Sect just watched obediently without causing any trouble. Could they really believe that he would split it equally with them?

All of them are two human immortals, who should be afraid of whom?

Gongsun Tu turned his head, "Alright, we’ve got the Milun Peaches, no more tangling with the scorpion."

Gongsun Hai stopped attacking the scorpion, backing towards the rear. The scorpion retreated into the grass, without continuing its pursuit, appearing not very intelligent.

Gongsun Tu, with a false smile, stared at Lin Chen, "Baihe Immortal Sect’s friends, we did all the work fighting the beast and picking the fruit. You didn’t do anything and still want to split the peaches. I’m afraid that’s not going to fly."

Liu Qianyun coldly responded, "So, you want to swallow it all?"

Gongsun Tu laughed chillingly, "Shouldn’t we take something for our trouble? Here’s the plan, I’ll give you three Milun Peaches, and we’ll settle this matter peacefully. How’s that?"

Liu Qianyun snapped, "Are you treating us like beggars? There are at least thirty peaches on this tree. If we’re splitting evenly, each of us should get at least fifteen..."

"Eighteen."

Lin Chen cut off Liu Qianyun’s words, and gently said with a smile, "I counted just now. There are thirty-six in total."

Gongsun Tu sneered, "We took all the risks, while you just stood by. Still expecting an equal split? Keep dreaming. Three is all you get. Take it or leave it. If not, you won’t even get one."

Lin Chen remained calm, "We agreed to split evenly just now. It’s only fair."

Gongsun Tu burst into laughter, "Fair? Whoever’s fist is bigger, is the one who’s fair. The Milun Peaches are on my hand right now. If you’re capable, come and get them. If you can’t, then stop whining!"

Lin Chen laughed, "Alright, then I’ll come and get them!"

Gongsun Tu and Gongsun Hai’s faces both froze as they watched Lin Chen whose expression was normal and even carried a hint of a smile and for some reason, an inexplicable sense of unease welled up in their hearts.

What is this fellow planning?

Thin Chen turned his head, "You take care of the other one, how about it?"

Liu Qianyun’s eyes lit up, this Ancestral Master is really bold and handsome without any unnecessary words!

"Alright, I’ll take him. I’m not sure if I can win, but I can definitely hold him back!"

Lin Chen smiled faintly, "That’s enough."

Lin Chen’s gaze passed over Liu Qianyun and landed on the others, "Stay back and be careful."

After giving his warning, Lin Chen drew out his San Sheng Sword and smiled at Gongsun Tu.

"Be careful, I’m coming to get them now!"
