Petty Gambler

Chapter 1520: Return and Clash


"Cut the crap, get to work quickly."


Lin Chen was deeply despised by the Little Profound Turtle, feeling displeased, he spoke up.


After all, as a man, being outdone by a turtle was indeed embarrassing.


"Lin Chen, it looks like someone is coming our way."


The Little Profound Turtle, who was desperately mining the Green Crystal Stone, suddenly stopped and looked in a direction, coolly speaking to Lin Chen.


Hearing this, Lin Chen immediately activated his Abyssal Eye, probing in the direction that the Little Profound Turtle was looking at, and sure enough, he saw a group of figures approaching them.


It turned out that Tan Yu and the others had returned with hostility, clearly not with good intentions.


It seems like these guys have found a way to deal with him, no longer fearing the Flame Explosion Talismans from before.


Otherwise, if they weren't confident in handling the Flame Explosion Talismans, coming back now would be seeking death.


Watching Tan Yu and the others return, Lin Chen frowned deeply. He had always been wary of Tan Yu, as the person gave off an extremely dangerous vibe, undoubtedly possessing many tactics, far from an ordinary person.


"You hide first."


Lin Chen said calmly. Without absolute certainty of dealing with everyone present, he didn't want to expose the Little Profound Turtle.


"Alright."


Hearing Lin Chen's words, the Little Profound Turtle immediately responded, shrinking rapidly and quickly flying into Lin Chen's sleeve to hide.


After doing all this, Lin Chen flew above the mountain, quietly waiting for Tan Yu and the others to arrive.


The time it takes for one incense stick to burn passed, and Tan Yu and the others reached the mountain, only to find that Lin Chen seemed to have known they would come and had been waiting.


This amazed Tan Yu and the others, making them wary of Lin Chen.


Lin Chen was indeed no ordinary person, his methods exceeding their imagination, having detected their return in advance. Could it be that Lin Chen's Divine Soul isn't restricted by this world?


"Lin Chen, leave this place quickly, hand over the Green Crystal Stone, and we can spare you."


After returning, Tan Yingping and the others looked at Lin Chen and immediately said.


"Haha, I really wonder who gave you the courage to say something like that to me."


"I truly didn't expect you to come back and say such ridiculous words."


Looking at the crowd, Lin Chen said with a faint smile.


Lin Chen's contemptuous attitude made Tan Yu and the others feel something was amiss; Lin Chen showed no fear upon seeing them. Could he really have a way to deal with so many of them?


"Hmph, don't get too conceited. Just now, we only let it slide out of respect for Junior Sister Qiu Yue."


Tan Yu looked at Lin Chen and said coldly.


They hadn't actually gone far earlier, but had hidden to observe this direction.


After all, this island has an entire vein of Green Crystal Stones, and if they could mine it, its value would be immeasurable.


Even more than the entire Tan Family's wealth. If they acquired this vein, the Tan Family's status in Yunlong City would surely rise significantly, potentially becoming the strongest power second only to the Royal Family.


Presenting such huge benefits to the family would certainly earn them preferential treatment from the family. It could even result in the position of Young Master of the Tan Family being taken away and possibly even the position of Family Master being ceded.


So, there's no way they could easily give up on this vein of Green Crystal Stone.


When they saw Qiu Yue leaving the island alone, Tan Yu and others realized their opportunity had come.


As long as Qiu Yue wasn't by Lin Chen's side, they could deal with Lin Chen at ease.


If Qiu Yue were there, dealing with Lin Chen might cause conflicts with her, and knowing they wouldn't benefit from Qiu Yue's talismans, it was crucial they didn't provoke Wang Tong's wrath. The Tan Family couldn't withstand it.


It's important to know the influence of Cloud Dragon Kingdom's First Array Master. Even ten Tan Families could be easily destroyed.


Seeing Qiu Yue leave, Tan Yu was overjoyed, immediately leading people to the island to deal with Lin Chen, while also sending some to continue interacting with Qiu Yue, maintaining a friendly relationship.


After all, Qiu Yue is remarkably beautiful, and her talismans are quite useful. Building good relations with her could benefit the Tan family greatly. Most importantly, her mind is simple. As long as the banner of justice is waved, she will surely lend a hand.


Actually, Tan Yu had entertained thoughts about Qiu Yue as well.


But not genuinely, as Tan Yu didn't think with his lower body like Tan Yingping. Qiu Yue might be beautiful but lacks capability, she's just lucky to have a powerful Master.


However, because of her Master, Tan Yu knew he couldn't casually toy with Qiu Yue. Her Master and Senior Sister wouldn't let him off easily.


Therefore, Tan Yu refrained from taking action on Qiu Yue, to avoid causing trouble. If it were someone like Zhuang Xiaoqin, on the other hand, he wouldn't mind.


After all, whether in appearance or talent, Zhuang Xiaoqin is supreme in quality.


So, Tan Yu did not stop Tan Yingping and Xiang Fei from pursuing Qiu Yue.


"Kid, within ten breaths, leave this island quickly, or don't blame us for being rude."


Tan Yun looked at Lin Chen, extremely arrogant as he spoke.


"Haha, no need for ten breaths. I can tell you clearly, I won't be leaving this island for now. I still need to stay and mine these Green Crystal Stones. You guys should leave quickly."


Lin Chen looked at the people in front of him and spoke coldly.


"Seems like there's no room for negotiation. I'd like to see what you're relying on."


Tan Yu said, raising his hand, a Sharp Sword appearing in his hand.


Seeing this, Lin Chen also quickly brought out a Seventh Rank Sharp Sword in his hand.


Swoosh—


The next moment, Tan Yu's figure suddenly moved, in the blink of an eye, he teleported to Lin Chen's front, slashing a sword towards Lin Chen.


Seeing this, Lin Chen's face changed drastically, feeling an extremely dangerous aura from Tan Yu's sword light.


However, when Lin Chen's sword went to block Tan Yu's sword light, it missed, and Tan Yu's swordsmanship shifted, eventually slashing onto Lin Chen's chest.
