The Villain: Claiming The Protagonist's Master

Upon hearing this, Su Chen glared at her fiercely, coldly snorting, "If it weren't for your greed, could such a big mess have happened?"

Thinking about how this creature had eaten a young Jingwei bird without saying a word, causing them to flee in embarrassment, Su Chen felt displeased.

"Big Brother... I just wanted to try something new. Who would've thought there were so many of its kind in the forest..." Xiao Xian awkwardly smiled and explained.

Seeing this, Su Chen gave her a frustrated look.

This creature was not helpful and only created trouble, constantly causing him problems.

Gulp!

"Big Brother~ I'm hungry, what should I do?" Xiao Xian's stomach growled in protest.

"Make a cold salad!" Su Chen rolled his eyes.

This creature was simply a complete glutton.

Xiao Xian might look small, but her appetite was anything but. She had already eaten many of his spiritual herbs before. If this continued, he estimated he'd be eaten into bankruptcy.

Although the bloodline of the ancient dragon clan was strong, raising one was far too costly.

Most people truly couldn't afford to keep one.

Su Chen shook his head and sighed inwardly.

But Xiao Xian, clearly used to Su Chen's expressions, didn't abandon her own ideas in the slightest.

Even though she had submitted to Su Chen, her personality was still intact.

"Big Brother, I know where there's food." Xiao Xian sniffed the air with her dragon nose and then flew straight ahead.

"Damn it, don't get me into trouble!"

Seeing this, Su Chen was startled and hurriedly followed.

After all the trouble he'd gone through to contract a dragon clan divine pet, if he accidentally got her killed, he'd cry himself to death.

"Big Brother, don't worry. This time, I'll definitely make you gain big!"

Xiao Xian turned her head and said before darting away and disappearing.

Su Chen's face darkened as he cursed inwardly—this little ancestor really couldn't stay quiet for even a moment.

Along the way, Su Chen and the others followed Xiao Xian, winding left and right, walking for a long time.

"It's here."

Xiao Xian stopped in front of a small valley.

Su Chen followed her gaze and saw that the area ahead was filled with dense trees. Each tree was lush and green, with thick leaves.

However, the spiritual energy inside seemed significantly richer than outside, suggesting the presence of many treasures within.

Seeing this, Su Chen furrowed his brows slightly, seemingly recalling something, and murmured to himself, "Spirit Fruit Garden?"

With a "whoosh," Xiao Xian rushed in first.

The group quickly followed and found that the inside was indeed another world. Strange flowers and plants grew everywhere, interspersed with many precious herbs.

Most notably, in the center stood a towering ancient tree. It was over thirty meters tall, robust and majestic like a mountain god.

Clusters of crimson fruits hung on its branches, incredibly enticing.

"It really is the legendary Spirit Fruit Garden!" Su Chen exclaimed inwardly.

According to the original records, Lin Feng, the young master of the Lin family in Zhongzhou, gained a great opportunity here, obtaining countless precious natural treasures.

At this moment, Xiao Xian was furiously gnawing on the crimson fruits atop the Grand Dao Tree.

"Those are Grand Dao Fruits!" Green Vine immediately identified the crimson fruits.

Hiss~

Su Chen and Luo Shen were instantly thrilled.

These were treasures that could enhance one's cultivation. A single Grand Dao Fruit could sell for 2 million top-grade spirit stones on the market, and they were still in high demand.

"Xiao Xian! Well done!" Su Chen shouted at Xiao Xian.

This creature was finally reliable for once, finding the legendary "Spirit Fruit Garden." From the looks of it, the Spirit Fruit Garden hadn't been looted yet.

He'd struck it rich this time.

"Hehe... Big Brother, am I amazing or what? Right?"

Before Xiao Xian could finish speaking—

Rustle rustle.

A noise came from afar.

"Wow! It's Grand Dao Fruits!"

A group of more than ten people emerged from the woods nearby.

They immediately looked up at the Grand Dao Tree with greedy expressions.

"Young Master, if we pick all these Grand Dao Fruits, spirit herbs, and medicinal plants and bring them back, the family head will surely praise us," a man in a black robe said to the leader, a man in white.

"Indeed. With these items, our Lin family's status in Zhongzhou will only continue to rise."

The others nodded in agreement, their eyes shining, looking eager to act.

They completely ignored Su Chen's group on the side.

In their eyes, Su Chen's group was insignificant. Sparing their lives and letting them leave was enough; how could they still dream of taking these Grand Dao Fruits? That would be courting death.

Hearing their discussions, Su Chen frowned slightly. How could these people be even more shameless than him?

Clearly, his group had discovered this Spirit Fruit Garden first, yet they wanted to rob it immediately upon arrival?

"Hey, kid, hand over the Grand Dao Fruits in your hands!"

The man in black suddenly turned his gaze to Su Chen.

His eyes gleamed with mockery.

What kind of fool wouldn't run away upon seeing their group of over ten people and instead stupidly stay and pick Grand Dao Fruits?

Did they think his group was a bunch of good Samaritans who wouldn't kill them?

Since that was the case, he'd kill this pretty boy first and then capture the two beauties alive to entertain the young master.

"Oh?"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows, looking at the black-clothed man with some surprise. He casually stuck a finger in his ear and said indifferently, "What did you say?"

"Hmph! Kid, are you deaf? How dare you talk to your grandpa like that!"

The black-clothed man shouted angrily, his face instantly darkening as he released his Divine Power Realm peak aura.

In his eyes, Su Chen was already a dead man.

Seeing the other party's arrogant and overbearing attitude, Green Vine couldn't help but step forward. Her eyebrows arched, her red lips parted, and she coldly snorted, "Hmph! We discovered this first. These are our things. What right do you have to take them?"

"You little girl, do you know what it means to be sensible? If you obediently hand over the Grand Dao Fruits in your hands, we'll let you leave. Otherwise, you won't be leaving here alive today!"

Another man in green clothes glanced at Green Vine with a condescending attitude, showing no regard for her.

"You are simply a gang of bandit robbers!"

"Oh?"

Finally, the man in white turned his gaze over. When he saw Green Vine's green dress, jade-like complexion, her long hair fluttering despite the lack of wind, and her stunning beauty, he was amazed.

"I am Lin Feng, young master of the Lin family in Zhongzhou. May I know the lady's name?"

Hearing the name "Lin Feng," Su Chen squinted his eyes and thought to himself, 'The main character has finally appeared!'
