Chapter 629: Chapter 649: Why the Sudden Change of Heart? _1

Chen Lihé’s face turned the color of a pig’s liver, unspeakably ugly.

He was already unreasonable, couldn’t win the fight, and had his wounds exposed and salt rubbed in. How could he not be upset?

"I dare not, I dare not. Qiao Feng Main, please don’t be angry!"

Chen Lihé reluctantly endured the embarrassment.

But what else could he do?

Even the Sect Master could hardly deal with Qiao Wei, let alone him. He couldn’t possibly handle it!

Qiao Wei swept her gaze over the hundreds of onlookers and said coldly, "Whoever wants to make trouble for my Fei Pu Peak disciples, go ahead. Whether it’s among peers or consensual fights, I don’t care about the death or injuries you inflict on yourselves. But if someone relies on their backing and bullies others, then don’t blame me for not caring about seniors or juniors, and cleaning up after you all!"

As Qiao Wei’s eyes swept across the field, hundreds of people looked away or lowered their heads, not daring to meet her gaze.

Members of the Ten Thousand Images Sect looked even more ashamed, Liu Yuan’s eyes filled with resentment, her head lowered and biting her lip, but she didn’t dare to retaliate. Because Qiao Wei’s threat to cripple her wasn’t an exaggeration.

If she dared to fight back, Qiao Wei wouldn’t hesitate to cripple her!

Would someone who dared to fight the Sect Master care about the daughter of an elder?

There were also a small number of Fei Pu Peak disciples present, their eyes wide and filled with admiration when they looked at Qiao Wei.

Lin Chen felt relieved and grateful in secret.

What a domineering presence!

Though young and beautiful, her might was incredible. With a single appearance, she silenced the many sect elders and experts among the crowd!

This mighty presence was the result of her single-handedly fighting with her sword, truly remarkable!

Qiao Wei spoke, "I will also be wandering in the Secret Realm. Fei Pu Peak disciples, if you have a Distress Talisman, you can bind it to me now. If you encounter any danger, I will try my best to save you."

Lin Chen blinked. Was she talking to him?

Hadn’t she given him a Distress Talisman before?

Without hesitation, Lin Chen took out the Distress Talisman, injected it with spiritual energy, and a wave of mental activity extended out, locking onto Qiao Wei. From now on, if he encountered any danger, he just needed to release the Distress Talisman, and it would reach Qiao Wei through this connection.

After everyone had completed the mental locking of their Distress Talismans, Qiao Wei didn’t make any further conversation with Lin Chen and directly floated into the entrance of the valley, disappearing into the thick fog.

As soon as Qiao Wei left, the whispers began to rise.

"She’s never done this before. Why did she suddenly change her ways?"

"Yeah, she used to leave Fei Pu Peak disciples to their own devices. Now suddenly she’s so protective... Is it because of this kid from the human world?"

"This kid does have some skills. Coming from the outside world and possessing Golden Core Realm strength is ten times more difficult than us cultivating to the Golden Core Realm here."

"Was that Sword Screen he just used? It kind of looks like it. Is he Qiao Feng Main’s disciple?"

"No way, if that were true, she would surely have mentioned it."

On the edge of the crowd, Lin Chen and Situ Xiu were also discussing.

Situ Xiu’s eyes were slightly red, "Brother Lin, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I definitely couldn’t have saved my leg today, and worst of all, I would have had to suffer that woman’s humiliation."

Lin Chen smiled, "We’re both men, I understand!"

Situ Xiu pursed his lips, not saying more about it, but deep down he had already considered Lin Chen as a brother he could trust with his life.

Changing the topic, Situ Xiu asked, "You just blocked three flying swords with one sword effortlessly. I feel that you’ve become much stronger since last I saw you..."

Lin Chen didn’t hide, "Sect Leader gave me a Jade Slip on the basics of Sword Screen cultivation, I’ve been practicing it for the past ten days and gained quite a lot of insight."

Situ Xiu’s eyes widened in surprise, "Is the Sect Leader going to take you as her disciple?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "When I explored the ruins of Liangchang Mountain Cave World, I obtained a Senior’s relics, which contained his cultivation techniques, so I am considered his disciple. The Cave Master knows him and even admires him, so she probably instructed Sect Leader to take care of me."

Situ Xiu finally understood why Qiao Wei had suddenly changed her style and stood up for Lin Chen when he was bullied.

As they were talking, Liu Yuan, with her swollen face, came over, her eyes filled with resentment and madness.

Being an extremely vain woman, she had been slapped hard by Lin Chen in front of hundreds of people, losing face completely.

She could already imagine herself becoming the laughing stock of all cultivators and ordinary people. They might not dare to say anything in front of her, but they would certainly mock her behind her back.

Lin Chen!

All of this was caused by this man in front of her!

Lin Chen turned to glance at Liu Yuan and gave her a faint smile, "See, I told you, not lifting a hand would only result in even more embarrassment, and it’s not necessarily Situ Xiu who would be embarrassed."

Liu Yuan glared fiercely, "Don’t think that just because you’re protected, you’re safe. There are many peers with strength far beyond yours who can easily deal with you. I’m telling you, this is far from over!"
