Chapter 175 Plant Harvesting
The knife flew wildly and violently, cleaving through the withered branches blocking the path, sending the years and the withered branches flying in all directions.

That swiftly flying knife, carrying a chilling wind, ravaged everything in its path.

Chi Lin noticed that as he suddenly leaned back to dodge, the curved blade almost grazed his cheek.

His face turned ugly, and his cold, deep blue eyes looked at Li Yan.

"Hey, you there, you almost threw that knife at my face." Chi Lin said in a nonchalant tone, "If you're going crazy, get out of here and don't bother other people."

He rolled up the sleeves of his dark blue shirt to his elbows, revealing his lean and muscular forearms, and held a knife in his hand as he cleared a path for Jiang Mian.

Who knew that the beast next to them seemed to suddenly go mad, and its actions of clearing the way became so much like an outburst of temper.

Upon hearing this, Li Yan merely glanced at Chi Lin with cold indifference and said only, "You're the one who's getting in the way of others."

He then ignored Chi Lin's reaction and continued driving frantically, relentlessly ravaging the road ahead.

Now Li Yan is increasingly convinced that his Mianmian is not sleepy.

Thinking back to the last time at the airport, he eliminated so many people and narrowed down a few more, but he completely forgot about Jiang Mian, who was standing next to him.

His sleep is just not sleepy!

Chi Lin chuckled in exasperation. After glancing at Li Yan, he sheathed the sword he had been using to clear the way, deciding not to help this man clear the path. Since this man had so much strength to clear the way, he could let him do it alone.

He originally wanted to stay by Jiang Mian's side, but if Jiang Mian hadn't asked him to come and clear the way with this wretched beast, he wouldn't have come.

"Sister, I've come to keep you company." Chi Lin walked back to Jiang Mian's side and pushed away the imperial edict next to her.

Zhao Ci's eyebrows twitched violently, his displeasure coalescing into a murderous intent, and he was left a beat behind Jiang Mian.

"Didn't I tell you to lead the way with Li Yan? Why did you come back?" Jiang Mian glanced at him, somewhat suspecting that he was deliberately being lazy and leaving Li Yan to lead the way alone.
"Oh, that guy said he could clear the way by himself and that I was in his way." Chi Lin said seriously, and then took Jiang Mian's hand. "So I came back to cheer my sister up."

"It's laughable that some people can talk so high and mighty about being lazy," Rong Fei said casually from Jiang Mian's other side.

"Some people have a truly remarkable ability to distort the truth; it's admirable," Chi Lin retorted sarcastically.

Jiang Mian felt ashamed and took a few steps forward to see how Li Yan was clearing the way.

"Sister, wait for me!" Chi Lin quickly followed.

When Jiang Mian walked forward, she saw Li Yan standing there, so she quickly walked over to his side and asked, "What's wrong?"

Why did it suddenly stop?
“Look ahead.” Li Yan glanced at her and then looked at the suddenly open cliff. “These blue grasses on the cliff face should be Blue Condensation Grass.”

Jiang Mian followed his gaze and looked over, her eyes brightening with joy: "Yes, it's Blue Condensation Grass."

She quickly went over, took out her rock climbing tools, and planned to climb to pick blue grass.

"Wait for me at the bottom of the cliff, I'll go pick some for you." Li Yan walked to Jiang Mian's side. He had just been very agitated and angry, but when he spoke to Jiang Mian, his tone unconsciously softened a lot, although there was still a hint of his irritation in his voice.

Business is business, but as for the matter of Jiang Mian not sleeping, he'll settle accounts with her later.

Jiang Mian naturally didn't notice the difference in Li Yan's tone. After hearing him say this, she shook her head: "I'd better pick them myself. I'm afraid you won't pick them properly and will ruin their medicinal properties." But Li Yan grabbed her hand, stopping her from climbing forward.

His dark eyes were calm as he stared at Jiang Mian, who looked up at him.

“I think I’m more skilled at this than you are,” Li Yan said slowly. After all, he had taken on many herb-gathering tasks, and no one knew better than him the medicinal properties of herbs and how to preserve them. He deftly took the climbing tools from Jiang Mian’s hands. “Stay here and wait for me.”

His tone was calm, yet it sounded like he was giving a command.

Before Jiang Mian could say anything, he had already nimbly climbed up.

Jiang Mian paused slightly at the foot of the cliff, her lips moved, but before she could say anything, after seeing this scene, she decided to wait at the foot of the cliff.

"Sister, don't get so close to the cliff. What if that guy accidentally falls and hits you while climbing? Move away." Chi Lin had also come to Jiang Mian's side, grabbed her hand and walked away from the cliff.

Jiang Mian naturally had no objections.

The other beastmen also came over and stood around Jiang Mian, forming a semi-circle.

Although Li Yan said he was very skilled, Jiang Mian still looked at Li Yan climbing on the cliff with some worry. However, seeing that the other party's movements were indeed very nimble and skilled, the worry in her heart seemed to lessen a lot.

Jiang Mian was slightly surprised when he saw the other party's herb-gathering skills; they were indeed very skilled and their techniques were very professional.

Perhaps she still doesn't quite understand her beastly husband.

After all, they didn't tell her in detail what they did, so Jiang Mian only knew the general idea.

Soon, Li Yan finished picking all the Blue Condensation Grass on this cliff face and then nimbly came down.

"Alright." Li Yan casually handed a hub space ring to Jiang Mian. He had already picked all the medicinal plants and put them in this hub ring.

"Thank you for your hard work, Li Yan!" Jiang Mian happily took the package, put it away, and then rushed into his arms to hug him, expressing her joy.

Li Yan's heart softened a little more, and he happily hummed in agreement: "Yeah, it's nothing."

The next second, Li Yan's eyes sharpened, and he suddenly hugged Jiang Mian's waist and jumped away from the spot, leaving behind a row of bullet holes.

"Wow, wow, wow, it's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to me without any effort at all."

"Hey! Hand over the Blue Condensation Grass you just picked, or hand over your heads. Choose one."

"Heh heh! Hurry up! Don't waste our time!"

A series of nonsensical voices rang out.

One by one, orcs wearing black bulletproof suits and silver masks surrounded them.

An orc was even holding a machine gun and firing it into the sky to intimidate people!
