Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 90 Conflict Enters the Sect?

As Lin Chen dodged the jade sword, the owner of that voice also appeared in Lin Chen's perception.

"This person's clothes are much more luxurious than those of these disciples, so he probably wasn't lying," Lin Chen pondered.

Before long, the elegantly dressed Jade Sword Sect disciple flew to Lin Chen on his jade sword.

"Young brother, could you please give me face and let these disciples go?" Si Nan said again.

"Alright, one hundred gold soul coins per person, five hundred in total, consider it money to buy your life." Lin Chen held up five fingers and gestured as he spoke.

Si Nan gritted his teeth, took out a bag full of gold soul coins, and reluctantly threw it to Lin Chen.

After scanning them with his mental energy, Lin Chen was satisfied and put the gold soul coins into his storage bag before letting the five people go.

The five of them scrambled back to Si Nan's side.

Just as Lin Chen turned around, a jade sword suddenly thrust towards him again without warning, and Si Nan's sinister smile reappeared on his face.

Lin Chen was prepared. He used the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to dodge the flying jade sword in one step. The jade sword only pierced Lin Chen's afterimage.

"How...how is this possible?" An incredulous expression replaced his previous sinister look as Si Nan exclaimed in astonishment.

"Since you're looking for death, then I'll grant your wish!" With that, Lin Chen flashed in front of Si Nan and threw a punch at him.

Lin Chen's speed, having condensed his first soul core, was terrifying. Si Nan barely had time to react before Lin Chen's fist reached less than two centimeters from his stomach.

"Snap!"

The sound of the jade pendant shattering rang out, and Si Nan was knocked back dozens of meters, crashing into a large tree, with bright red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

At the last moment, Si Nan still took out the protective jade pendant his father had given him.

This jade pendant was personally crafted by Situ, the sect leader of the Jade Sword Sect and father of Si Nan. If it is broken, Situ will immediately be able to pinpoint its location.

At this moment, Lin Chen also sensed a powerful aura approaching.

Actually, he wasn't that powerful; the newcomer was a level 91 Title Douluo.

The Jade Sword Sect currently only has one Title Douluo, but it has quite a few Soul Douluo experts, and two of them are already halfway to the Title Douluo level.

Once they become Title Douluo, the Jade Sword Sect's strength will surely reach a new level!

As the sect leader of the Jade Sword Sect, Situ possessed the strength of a level 91 Title Douluo. His voice preceded his arrival: "Young friend, please have mercy. I am willing to pay five thousand gold soul coins to save my son's life."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen shook his head and said calmly, "Not enough."

As she spoke, she flashed to the disheveled Si Nan again and grabbed him by the neck.

"You dare, kid!"

With a wave of his hand, Situ sent two jade swords hurtling toward Lin Chen.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Chen summoned a massive black Seven Kill Sword Shadow, which blocked the two jade swords.

Because it was a sword shadow, Situ did not recognize that Lin Chen's martial soul was the Seven Kill Sword.

At this moment, Situ's figure had already landed not far from Lin Chen.

"Young friend, let's talk this out. Please don't harm my son's life. He still has to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament in the future."

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "Now, even the Sect Master knows how to speak properly?"

Situ, looking embarrassed, said, "Young friend, name your price, and we'll pretend this never happened, how about it?"

Lin Chen held up two fingers and said calmly, "Twenty thousand gold soul coins!"

Before Situ could react, Lin Chen continued, "Originally, I only wanted ten thousand, but since the Sect Master wouldn't give me face, I'll ask for another ten thousand. What does the Sect Master mean by that?"

Upon hearing this, Situ angrily retorted, "You're clearly raising prices on the spot!"

"Thirty thousand, this is your last chance," Lin Chen said calmly.

Since he held the initiative, he wasn't afraid of what tricks this person might play. He could crush this little Soul Emperor in an instant.

Situ quickly extended his hand and said, "I agree! Thirty thousand it is."

After saying that, he immediately took out three bags of gold soul coins from his storage soul tool and threw them to Lin Chen with a pained expression.

After taking the gold soul coins and checking that there were no problems, Lin Chen released Si Nan.

"I can't even see through this kid's strength. Why don't we lure him up the mountain first, and then join forces with the elders to kill him in one fell swoop!" Situ thought to himself.

He couldn't see Lin Chen's strength clearly, so he was very wary of Lin Chen.

At that moment, Situ said, "Young brother, my son offended you in this matter. Why don't you come up the mountain with me? My Jade Sword Sect will definitely apologize to you!"

"Hmph, old man, you're definitely up to no good. Well then, I'll play along and see what you're really up to," Lin Chen thought to himself.

So he decided to play along and said, "Then I shall respectfully comply."

After saying that, Lin Chen put away his belongings and went to Situ.

"father!"

"Shut up! You've offended this young man. Go back and receive fifty strokes of the cane as punishment!" Situ scolded.

Si Nan stared at Lin Chen with venomous eyes.

"May I ask your name, young man?" Situ asked.

"My name is Lin Qi," Lin Chen replied.

"I am Situ, the sect leader of the Jade Sword Sect. Please follow me." After saying this, he led the way and flew up the mountain.

Lin Chen followed closely behind.

Si Nan and his disciples were left far behind.

"To have such speed, he must be at least a Soul Master!" Situ thought to himself.

Not long after, Lin Chen and Situ arrived at the Jade Sword Sect.

Now, Si Nan and his disciples are completely out of sight; they have been left far behind.

Situ led Lin Chen to a room and said, "It's already late at night, and I'm truly sorry to disturb Brother Lin's rest. If Brother Lin doesn't mind, please stay in this room tonight!"

"Heh, that's quite a convincing performance," Lin Chen thought to himself, but said aloud, "Then I, Lin Chen, will gladly accept."

"Haha, don't be shy, I'll have a maid bring you some food later."

"Then I'll have to trouble Sect Master Situ," Lin Chen said, cupping his hands in greeting.

Situ nodded, smiled, and left.

"Hmph, let's see how long you can hold out." Lin Chen snorted disdainfully and turned to walk into the room that Situ had prepared for him.

The entire room was made of jade, yet it felt warm and extremely comfortable, without a trace of coldness.

"This Jade Sword Sect is really extravagant," Lin Chen said.

At this moment, a maid walked in, but she was dressed in black and her face was not visible.

The maid placed the items on the jade table and said, "Hello, Mr. Lin, these are fruits and food sent to you by the sect leader."

"Okay, I understand. You can go back now."

The maid left, leaving only food and fruit, leaving Lin Chen alone in the room.

"Why does that voice sound somewhat familiar?"
