Deep in the cave, the Zhang family fought fiercely with the monsters.
The vast Jinglei Mansion couldn't be guarded by only one Cold Scale Bear.
Lin Chen's expression turned colder. He sensed that the elders of the Zhang family were constantly getting severely injured. Even the leader, Zhang Xuan, was covered in blood and was struggling to breathe. The will-o'-the-wisp silver snake in front of him was already wounded and battered.
"Kill them all in one go!" Zhang Xuan shouted. "As long as we get our hands on this valuable treasure, it will be worth all the effort!"
"Pfft!" Another elder was killed by a monster because he couldn't dodge in time.
So far, two elders had died, and three were injured!
Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with anger.
They couldn't retreat now. They had come too far, and if they retreated, all their efforts would be in vain!
The powerful family had already suffered heavy losses, and the only way to stop the bleeding was to take away all the treasures of Jinglei Mansion.
Another fierce battle raged for a short while.
When the last monster fell, Zhang Xuan was left with only one arm, leaning against the mountain wall and gasping for breath.
In front of him, only one elder was still standing.
The elder's condition was also dire. He was covered in blood and had reached his limit.
"Finally, we've killed all these beasts."
Zhang Xuan's body swayed as he reached out to push open the last bronze door in front of him.
"Boom!"
As the bronze door was pushed open, a brilliant aura of spiritual jade instantly erupted from the secret room!
Piles of spiritual jade were stacked on the ground.
Second lines, third lines—everything they needed!
In addition to the spiritual jade, there were also several copied techniques and inscriptions on the stone wall of the secret room.
"Now, my Zhang family is bound to rise!"
Zhang Xuan's voice was hoarse, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.
Then, he instructed the elder, "You, go in first!"
The elder cautiously entered. It was quiet inside, not a single sound came out, and there was no sneak attack by monsters.
"Good, very good!"
Zhang Xuan was relieved and walked into the secret room with a big smile.
As the elder was about to follow, a soft sound suddenly rang out, and a sharp vine pierced his heart from behind!
His eyes widened, and blood foam kept coming out of his mouth.
The elder's life essence was drained in an instant, and he didn't make a sound.
Lin Chen carefully put Lin Ning'er down and then walked into the secret room.
"Come on, pack all these spiritual jade for me!"
Zhang Xuan was still immersed in ecstasy and didn't notice that someone was walking behind him.
"Swish!"
Lin Chen struck out with a palm, aiming directly behind Zhang Xuan's ear.
Zhang Xuan noticed the strong wind coming and his pupils shrank violently. He relied on his body's instinct to avoid it.
"Lin Chen, it's you!"
Zhang Xuan took a few steps back, his expression instantly turning extremely ugly.
Could it be that Lin Chen had been quietly following behind?
If he really had, then along the way...
Zhang Xuan's pupils suddenly turned red, and his eyes were about to burst. "My Lin'er..."
"Died."
Lin Chen took a step forward with a cold expression, showing a chilling look. "Next, it's your turn, head of the Zhang family!"
"I'll kill you, little beast!"
Zhang Xuan instantly lost his mind and rushed towards Lin Chen with a roar.
The Ghost Fire Silver Snake darted out and bit towards Lin Chen like lightning.
Extremely sharp fangs flashed from its mouth.
"Little snake, take a stick from your tree brother!"
The sapling jumped down from the mountain wall, holding a thick wooden stick in its hand, and knocked the ghost-fire silver snake's body directly to the ground!
It had been lying in wait for a long time!
The ghost-fire silver snake was struck dizzy.
It had been seriously injured in the previous fight with the monster, so its strength and speed were weakened.
"Hiss!"
The ghost-fire silver snake raised its head in great anger, staring at the sapling with its green bean eyes.
A first-level fantasy beast!
Existences at this level were simply rubbish!
If it hadn't been seriously injured, would it have its turn to be arrogant?
Lin Chen clenched his five fingers and struck Zhang Xuan's one arm.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise, and Lin Chen took a few steps back, half of his arms feeling numb.
Deep down in his heart, he couldn't help but be amazed at Zhang Xuan's power.
Even though he was injured like this, he still had such explosive power.
If both parties were in their prime, I would definitely not be his opponent!
On the other side, Zhang Xuan felt even more uncomfortable.
He was left with only one arm. After being hit hard, the wound on his body was torn again. The pain made his face hideous and twisted, and he almost passed out.
Lin Chen's figure was strong and strong, like a cheetah, attacking continuously.
After he used the Emperor Technique, his arms glowed with a faint green light, and his fists roared like thunder!
Zhang Xuan was able to parry at first, but after a few rounds, he inevitably became frustrated.
Lin Chen was merciless and landed several heavy punches. The pain made Zhang Xuan tremble all over and scream.
"Crack!"
Lin Chen's palms were like lightning, flying up and down.
An attack directly cut Zhang Xuan's arm, severing his last arm!
Zhang Xuan was in so much pain that he broke into a cold sweat and shouted to the Ghost Fire Silver Snake, "Come and help me!"
However, his phantom beast, the Ghost Fire Silver Snake, had already been caught by the sapling by seven inches and curled up into a ball.
The little sapling pointed at the teeth marks on its torso and grinned. "If I dare to bite you, Brother Shu, I won't be afraid of my teeth!"
The venom of the ghost-fire snake had no effect on the small sapling.
Previously, risking being bitten, the little sapling made a lightning move, grabbed seven inches of the ghost-fire silver snake, and lifted it up!
After seeing this, Zhang Xuan's pupils shrank again.
He took a few steps back and couldn't help but roar, "Lin Chen, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
Lin Chen sneered and punched Zhang Xuan in front of the door.
Facing such a strong man, he didn't dare to show any signs of neglect!
"Pfft!"
Zhang Xuan's head hit the mountain wall and shattered like a watermelon!
The head of the Zhang family, a strong man on the sixth level of the Earth Spirit Realm, died on the spot!
"Phew, phew."
After beating Zhang Xuan to death, Lin Chen took a few deep breaths.
Looking at the many treasures in the secret room, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.
It's happening now!
"Xiaochen, where...where is this?"
Outside the secret room, Lin Ning'er woke up from a coma, and her pretty face turned pale when she saw this scene.
"It's okay, sister, I've already killed them all."
Lin Chen grinned.
Immediately, he explained to her the ins and outs of the situation.
"Xiaochen, you are so adventurous!"
Lin Ning'er covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes.
She knew deep down in her heart that Lin Chen did all this for himself.
If he hadn't contracted cold poison and needed treatment urgently, he could have found a pure place and slowly improved his level.
With his talent, he would reach the peak sooner or later!
Why did he need to work so hard?
"Sister, I said that from now on, I will never let you suffer any injustice again!"
Lin Chen smiled and stretched out his hand to gently wipe away Lin Ning'er's tears. "When I kill Lin Hongbin, we will leave Fanyun City and go to the Imperial City!"
