Chapter 1437: Chapter 1437
The two people were simply not on the same level. In everyone's mind, it was almost certain that Lin Chen was doomed. Even if he didn't die from this punch, he would have only half his life left.
However, what was beyond everyone's expectations was that there was not a trace of fear on Lin Chen's face, and his eyes glinted with an icy chill.
The moment the two fists collided, Lin Chen unexpectedly smiled wickedly. In the center of his palm, a five-colored energy burst forth suddenly.
The five-colored energy gathered rapidly and heavily bombarded the green giant's fist.
With a muffled bang, the two figures crossed paths. The energy ripple from their collision formed a whirlwind. What was even more surprising to everyone was that the green giant, with a body as large as a small mountain, was blasted back by this force, flying through the air.
The immense impact even knocked over a large tree that required two people to embrace.
Everyone's eyes nearly popped out in shock.
The agents of Group X, who had been so smug just now, were now all staring blankly.
They couldn't believe the scene in front of them, no matter how they rationalized it, they couldn't understand how Lin Chen, with his frail physique, could send the green giant flying with one punch.
In their minds, the one who should have been sent flying was clearly that weak Chinese man!
Seeing this, Li Mengli and Alice were also stunned. Even though they knew Lin Chen was strong, they had never dreamed that he was this powerful.
Everyone thought it was a battle with a huge disparity in strength, but they only guessed the beginning, not the end.
The entire scene fell deathly silent, with everyone staring in shock at that slim figure.
Lin Chen stood firm and steady on the ground; the green giant's storm-like assault hadn't caused him any harm.
At this moment, the snapped giant tree was tossed aside by the green giant, who climbed up from the ground.
A palm-sized imprint was visible on his green body.
The green giant stood up with a ferocious expression, fury etched on his face.
He extended his hand and lifted the other half of the giant tree: "You brat, I'm going to crush you today."
As soon as he finished speaking, the half of the giant tree in his hand had already been thrown, hurtling towards Lin Chen.
However, as soon as the tree got close to Lin Chen, it was turned into a pile of ashes by a scorching aura.
Lin Chen looked at the green giant with a playful smile, waving the Phantom Spirit Grass in his hands: "You lost."
How could it be? His own herbs had been stolen.
The green giant's expression changed, and he reached into his pocket, only to find that the Phantom Spirit Grass was indeed gone.
The surrounding area was completely silent.
Everyone's mouths formed an O shape, and the agents of Group X, in particular, were incredulous as they looked at the herbs in Lin Chen's hands.
Everyone was dumbfounded, originally thinking it would be an intense battle, but they never expected the outcome to be decided so quickly.
From the slightly dazed look in the green giant's eyes, it was clear he had no idea how the herbs had ended up in Lin Chen's hands. Google seaʀᴄh Nove1Fire.net
Lin Chen tossed the herbs to Qima and gave a faint smile to the astonished green giant: "Thank you, Group X, for paying for us."
Though his voice wasn't loud, it shook everyone on the scene.
Just now, the green giant claimed his herbs had been stolen, and everyone thought that was impossible. Yet Lin Chen not only did it but did so effortlessly.
What was even more astounding was that no one knew how Lin Chen managed to steal the herbs.
Not far away, the Taoist Master Xuan Zhen squinted slightly.
Clearly, Lin Chen's strength had exceeded his expectations.
No wonder Elder Yuan had to use Phoenix as the ultimate weapon; otherwise, it would be really hard for anyone else to kill Lin Chen.
"I can't believe what I just saw, how did he snatch those herbs?" Xue Ling asked, somewhat shocked.
Among the group, he had the best eyesight, but even he hadn't seen how Lin Chen had stolen the herbs.
Nobody knew what exactly happened in that fleeting moment.
"Actually, the process was quite simple. He used some unknown means to evade the green giant's attack at the moment of their clash, landed a palm strike on the opponent, and grabbed the herbs in that instant. The dazzling five-colored light was just to blind the eye," Zhao Xiaohua said calmly.
"Really? Is this Lin Chen that powerful? They just clashed for a few seconds, how could he react so much?" remarked Bu Fan, standing beside Xue Ling, in shock.
"That requires extremely fast speed and keen eyesight. Now you know how strong this opponent is," Daoist Master Xuan Zhen said coldly.
"This kid is not simple; at the very least, I'm not his match," said Black Big Guy with some trepidation.
Zhao Xiaohua looked at Lin Chen, her eyes furrowed slightly: "Daoist Master Xuan Zhen, have I seen him before? Why does he look so familiar?"
Daoist Master Xuan Zhen smiled coldly: "Of course, you have. It was he who killed your brother back then."
"What!" Zhao Xiaohua's eyes instantly became icy cold.
"He actually killed my only brother, I must take his life."
Daoist Master Xuan Zhen smiled coldly: "Don't worry, entering Death Island will surely give you the opportunity to kill him and avenge your brother."
"Boss, I've taken the herbs; you can ask him for money." Lin Chen smiled faintly at the old herb seller, pointing at the green giant.
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, everyone's eyes turned to the green giant.
At this moment, the green giant's face was very unsightly, his green face appearing even more hideous.
He could never have imagined that he, an elite of Group X, would be played by a young man in his early twenties.
Recalling the moment when the two just clashed, the more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed.
His fist had clearly been about to hit Lin Chen, but it felt as if something blocked it, then there was a pain in his chest, and he was sent flying by a slap from Lin Chen.
From beginning to end, the two bodies had only been in contact for a few seconds, but how did the herbs end up in Lin Chen's hands!
Looking at the vivid gazes around him, the green giant's face became gloomy and uncertain.
Having suffered such a big setback in front of so many people, it was clear he had taken a great fall.
"Kid, do you know the consequences of going against our Group X?" the green giant said with a cold gaze.
"So you want to default after losing? Is Group X really filled with people so lacking in integrity? You're denying what you just said."
Just a moment ago, the green giant kept saying that if Lin Chen grabbed the herbs, he would pay for them, and many people heard it clearly.
Now that he's lost, the expression clearly shows he's in denial. This kind of behavior is truly despicable.
Although the surrounding Martial Artists said nothing because of Group X's strength, the disdainful glances showed that refusing to pay would lose them many allies.
"Fine, you win this time. I admit defeat, but this isn't over. When we enter Death Island, you'll die miserably," said the green giant, sinisterly.
