Chapter 139 Plentiful Harvest
Long Chen’s voice was very gentle as if he were just greeting an old friend . His bright smile was extremely sincere .
But in their eyes, that smile was even more terrifying than a vicious Magical Beast . Who could possibly ruthlessly beat people like this and then still speak so gently to them immediately after?
“Long Chen… you… don’t go overboard!” fearfully cried out the cross-eyed man .
“I never go overboard . I just want to have a conversation . I have my own secret problems . You can only blame yourselves for growing faces that were just asking for a beating . If I hadn’t beat you, I would have been afraid the heavens would strike me with lightning,” helplessly sighed Long Chen .
“You…”
“Well, let’s get to business . Continuing on from where I left off, I’m very happy you guys are here . On my own behalf, I warmly welcome you three with my heartfelt congratulations . ” Long Chen even clapped a couple times for them before continuing:
“I was lacking manpower, but your arrival totally fixes that problem! I just happened to need some people to help me make some fish cages .
“And two, Mr . Cross-eyed, I really must thank you for bringing me such a gift . I really must apologize for my previous crudeness . So I hope you won’t make me feel any more guilty about that beating . You understand, right?”
Long Chen extended his hand, his meaning obvious . If he didn’t hand over his life ring, Long Chen would have to be make himself feel even more guilty .
“Please, that’s my ancestor’s… ok, I’ll give it to you . ” The cross-eyed man had just been about to refuse when Long Chen began to shrug his shoulders and legs as a warm up . He immediately threw over his life ring .
“Hehe, ah, brother Zhao’s sincerity is really too much; I really can’t accept . Ah, well I guess I’m just becoming soft-hearted . No need to thank me,” Long Chen sighed as he took the life ring .
The cross-eyed man’s vision darkened as he became so dizzy with anger than he almost fainted . This person really was too shameless! Who would thank someone for robbing them?!
“Long Chen, you’re also from a powerful family . How can you be such a scoundrel? This is the conduct of a small person,” indignantly said one of them .
“No, I’m not from a powerful family . So being a small person is just in my nature . Being a scoundrel is my virtue, robbing is my profession, and beating up others would have to be my greatest hobby . ” Long Chen tried using his divine sense to enter the life ring .
The three of them turned green from rage at this shameless display . This completely toppled their understanding as noble disciples . Long Chen didn’t care the slightest bit of his status . That both infuriated and terrified them .
In just a couple breaths’ time, Long Chen broke through the life ring’s original spiritual imprint and managed to see what was inside .
What surprised Long Chen was that a life ring really wasn’t the same as a spatial ring . Instead of being a neat and square area, it was the shape of a sphere .
It had an area of around thirty meters . Inside were some small gardens . In the middle was also a small pond . Around it were a couple small shrubs and plants .
“Interesting . ” Long Chen took out his Immortal Chrysanthemum and placed it into the life ring . Using his Spiritual Strength, he dug out a small hole and planted it within .
Originally the Immortal Chrysanthemum, despite him leaving some of its original soil around its roots, would have died within three days in his spatial ring . That was because living things couldn’t be stored within a spatial ring . Even living plants could not be stored without them dying .
But at this time the Immortal Chrysanthemum had yet to die . Although planting it here wouldn’t allow it to continue growing, at least it wouldn’t die .
A living Immortal Chrysanthemum was much more useful than a dead one . That was because once a precious natural treasure died, a part of its essence would be lost just like that . That was something that could not be avoided .
But now with the life ring, this Immortal Chrysanthemum could live for longer . It was just unfortunate that this life ring’s quality was too inferior . Otherwise the Immortal Chrysanthemum could have continued to grow within the life ring .
“Due to this ring, I won’t steal your tiles . ” Long Chen nodded his head contentedly .
They relaxed when they heard that . But only the cross-eyed man was filled with pain .
Although he had no major use for that life ring, he had always acted as if it was some divine item . That was because such things were incredibly few in number and few people had ever possessed or even seen one .
No matter who he was with, as long as he showed off his life ring, he would immediately become the center of attention . With his bragging skills, he would speak of his ancestor’s glory .
Furthermore, because the life ring wasn’t that practical, it wouldn’t cause others to go rob him . And so it had never been snatched away .
But now he had run into Long Chen . And it had just happened that Long Chen was in need of such a thing . That caused the cross-eyed man’s heart to bleed blood .
“Mr . Cross-eyed-”
“My surname is Zhao!” retorted the cross-eyed man .
“Brother Zhao Cross-eyed-”
“My name is Zhao Tianhao!”
Slap!
A ear-ringing slap landed on his face as Long Chen raged, “Now your name is Cross-eyes! If you dare interrupt again, I’ll throw you into the water to feed the fishes!”
The cross-eyed man glared at Long Chen but he didn’t dare open his mouth again . By now he was completely terrified of this shameless scoundrel .

With a wave of his hand, Long Chen suddenly covered the three of them with a white powder . The three of them were taken by surprise, but they didn’t sense anything immediately odd from the powder .
But after a while, they sensed something was wrong . Their bodies were becomingly unbearably itchy, especially around their wounds . They weren’t able to bear it and began to scratch .
As soon as they scratched, even their insides became itchy and they couldn’t help crying out .
“Hehe, I saw that you guys don’t like to be cooperative so I gave you guys some itching powder . Now we can discuss business . ”
Long Chen extended his hand, giving them three medicinal pills . “This is a temporary cure . It can stop the itching for two hours . As long as you all work properly, two hours later, I will give you the full cure . But if you are stubborn, you can choose not to eat it . But I’ll tell you right now that my itching powder is not ordinary . Without scratching off your own skin, there’s no way you’ll stop it . ”
The three of them angrily decided to obediently eat his cure . Immediately after consuming it, the itching completely disappeared . It was as if that itching before had just been a dream .
“Ok, now I’ll give you your jobs . Go cut down some branches to weave into cages for me . Make them according to the standards of the cage I have here . If you can’t each make one in two hours, no antidote . ”
After he finished saying that, the three of them continued to just foolishly look at him . He sinisterly laughed, “You can continue just standing there, but I guarantee that two hours later, you’ll be in so much pain you won’t want to live . ”
The three of them blanched and immediately flew into action . They began chopping down branches and weaving them according to Long Chen’s cage .
But Long Chen had really overestimated these spoiled disciples . The things they weaved caused Long Chen to curse . There were so many huge gaps between their branches that even a tortoise would be able to swim through; how could it possibly be used for catching fish?
“Hey, work properly! You, Cross-eyes, didn’t you say you can see through things accurately? Are you making cages or a boat? Does that look like the right shape?!”
Long Chen finally had no choice but to teach them how to work one step at a time .
Only at this time did Long Chen have a chance to check his second fish cage . Pulling it out, splashing came from within .
“There’s actually seven in this one!” After all, Long Chen had left this cage in the water for about twice as long . That was why there were so many more fish in .
He checked the medicinal pill he had wrapped in grass and placed within the cage . Despite having soaked in water for so long, it hadn’t dissolved much at all .
Long Chen thought about and decided to take a dagger and cut the medicinal pill into smaller pieces . That way the flavor released would be even denser .
He then threw it back into the water . Returning to his original location, he saw the three of them had finished weaving .
Although there were still many small gaps, they had used some more thinner branches to cover up those spots . Although it was ugly, it could at least be used to catch more fish . Once they swam into it, they wouldn’t be able to escape .
At this time, the three of their expressions were somewhat ugly . Their bodies were incessantly trembling . Obviously the itching powder had already begun to affect them again . But with their experience from last time, they didn’t dare go itch again and could only bitterly endure it .
Seeing Long Chen arrive, the three of them looked at him expectantly . By now they had already realized how terrifying Long Chen was and didn’t dare do anything to provoke him .
Long Chen handed them new medicinal pills that could let them stop the itching for six hours . He knew with their previous experience, they wouldn’t dare run .
The three of them stayed by the waterside, weaving fish cages for him . It went without saying that under this pressure, their weaving skill quickly skyrocketed . If there came a day they were no longer able to cultivate, they could still rely on their weaving to survive .
After a whole day, they had weaved over thirty fish cages . Long Chen threw them into the water, placing them at least several hundred meters apart to attract more fish .
Each loop around the pool would take him close to four hours . He could continuously circle around, raising the cages and collecting the fish inside .
Because the medicinal pill had its own limits, Long Chen didn’t require any more cages . He set the three of them to bringing up the cages for him as he just sat there, waiting for them to bring him buckets of Wonder Carps .
Two days later, Long Chen’s life ring contained hundreds of Wonder Carps . Long Chen finally decided to stop fishing .
One reason was that the medicinal pill had finally dissolved away, and the other reason was that he temporarily had enough fish for his uses . In any case, he would be staying within the Xuantian Monastery in the future . There would still be chances for him to get more, so there was no need for him to take all the fish away .
A small fire was burning away next to the pool . Dozens of Wonder Carps were being cooked, the smell causing people to drool with desire . Even Long Chen had to constantly swallow his saliva .
“Ok, you’ve all worked hard . These fish can be your reward . After eating you can head off . ”
Long Chen took the lead to take a fish and began eating it . As soon as he bit into, the flavor immediately exploded throughout his mouth, making him want to eat even more .
After eating just that one, he handed over the antidote to the itching powder to them and walked off alone .
The three of them watched him leave and then looked at each other . They began to wildly devour the food . In just a short moment, they completely finished over all of them .
“This Long Chen isn’t that bad,” sighed one of them, licking his lips .
“You absolutely can’t let boss Lei hear that . Remember which faction we’re on,” said the cross-eyed man .
Thee three of their hearts shook and they hastily nodded .
“Ok, just let this matter pass like this . No one say anything . Otherwise if boss Lei hears about it, he might feel we’re too useless and kick us out,” he solemnly continued .
After that, the three of them also walked away from this place .
Of course, Long Chen didn’t care what those three thought of him . In any case, he had already obtained something good . After treating them to such a feast, they were even .
Walking over a small mountain, a voice suddenly attracted his attention .
