Chapter 679: Chapter 699: You’re So Bold to Take Action Directly _1

The sudden departure was unexpected, but as for traveling and seeing the outside world, Lin Chen had been looking forward to it for a long time. So, he agreed without hesitation.

"Alright, Senior Sister, where are we going?"

"Barren Wilderness, Bai Tao City."

Lin Chen curiously asked, "What kind of place is that?"

Qiao Wei smiled slightly, "It’s a small city belonging to me, two days’ journey from Secret Realm."

Lin Chen had already learned the state of the Barren Wilderness from Su Mubai and immediately understood, "Senior Sister, you also occupy a city in the Barren Wilderness."

Qiao Wei explained, "Every sect from the Cave Sky Blessed Lands occupies cities for resources. The more cities under their control, the more resources they can obtain. The Four Great Sects also have many cities outside, so they can cultivate peacefully with plenty of resources."

"As the Sect Leader of Flying Waterfall Peak, although I don’t usually manage affairs, I have to find a way for the disciples of Flying Waterfall Peak, so I also founded a city. On the one hand, I can earn more Spirit Stones, on the other hand, the disciples of Flying Waterfall Peak who go to the Barren Wilderness have a place to cultivate peacefully."

"Bai Tao City is just a small city, and it is remote. There is a Wu Jin Mine near Bai Tao City, a valuable material for refining various magical artifacts and treasures. It is in great demand, and most of the city’s economy comes from mining and selling Wu Jin."

"The Spiritual Rhinoceros Storm lasted ten years, and the Secret Realm was also closed for ten years. We were cut off from the Barren Wilderness for ten years, and the nearby Jinghun City has been eyeing the Wu Jin Mine. They seized the opportunity to attack the mine and take it for themselves."

"This time, I am going to fight and regain the Wu Jin mining area while teaching them a lesson."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "How daring of them to attack directly! Aren’t they afraid of the Cave Master?"

Qiao Wei laughed, "The Cave Master is the master of the entire Cave World, not just a sect master. Unless it involves a contest of the Cave World, the Cave Master won’t take action. In such small matters, if a sect occupies an area, then it’s natural for the sect to resolve the problem; it’s just a struggle for resources. How would the Cave Master step in?"

Lin Chen thought about it and agreed that he had been too simplistic in his thinking.

Just like if he was up against the Han Family, even if they fought to the death, it would still be the people under the Han Family who would take the first step. It wouldn’t be until the entire Han Family’s survival was at stake that Han Yunfeng would step in.

It’s not like he’d be directly confronted by Han Yunfeng if he slapped a hedonistic young master of the Han Family twice in the face.

In war, commanding generals lead the charge, not the leaders directly charging at the front.

Lin Chen asked, "What does Senior Sister plan to do?"

Qiao Wei smiled, "First, reclaim the Wu Jin Mine. As for how to fight when we get there, I’ll decide based on the situation. Pack your things, let’s go."

"Alright!"

Lin Chen, living alone, didn’t have much to pack up. He went back to his Cave Mansion, harvested the mature Ling Medicine, and then "uprooted" the King Kong Vine, carrying it in his pocket. He followed Qiao Wei and departed, with the maid Qingling joining them.

Upon entering the Secret Realm, Qiao Wei threw out a flying boat, carrying the three of them forward.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and requested, "Senior Sister, if it’s not urgent, can we make a trip to the Mysterious Ice Mountain Range first?"

Qiao Wei asked, "What are you going to do there?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I’m going to bring some food to a friend and see if I can take them with me."

"Alright."

Lin Chen thought that going to the Barren Wilderness might be dangerous and involve a lot of fighting. The Snow Dragon Leopard King was not only a good helper to recharge his energy but also had Nascent Soul Stage strength. If it could help him, it would be an additional safety guarantee.

At the Mysterious Ice Mountain Range, Lin Chen blew the Bone Whistle.

The Snow Dragon Leopard King happily ran out. It was extremely fond of Lin Chen because he always brought it a lot of Ling Medicine to eat when he visited.

Qiao Wei saw the Snow Dragon Leopard King’s reaction, and her expression became more interesting. When she saw her name written on the tag hanging on its neck, her expression became even more amusing.

Lin Chen awkwardly explained, "I was afraid it would be killed, so I borrowed Senior Sister’s name."

Qiao Wei asked curiously, "Can it understand human language?"

"Yes!"

Lin Chen casually threw a piece of Ling Medicine into the Snow Dragon Leopard King’s mouth, and it immediately rubbed its head against Lin Chen’s hand, like a little dog, looking affectionate.

Lin Chen said, "I’m going to the Barren Wilderness, and I want you to come with me. If you don’t like staying with humans, you don’t have to live in the city during normal days, but you can live in the mountains and wilds. I won’t restrict your freedom."

The Snow Dragon Leopard King’s eyes showed a hint of hesitation.

Lin Chen patted it on the head, "I need your help now. As long as you help me, I will give you lots and lots of Ling Medicine to eat, help you increase your strength quickly, and make you even more powerful."

The Snow Dragon Leopard King’s eyes suddenly lit up, and its big head looked left and right, immersed in difficult thoughts.

After a long while, under Lin Chen’s expectant gaze, the Snow Dragon Leopard King finally lowered its head and gently nodded.
