After killing the Giant Serpent of Langhuan, several beast cores flew out of its body and fell to the ground.
However, Lin Chen had no mind to pick up those beast cores. He quickly ran to Qing Ling's side and held her.
"Why did you bother? We were enemies in the first place! If you save me, wouldn't it... sigh!" Lin Chen said helplessly.
When Lin Chen was truly this helpless, he actually felt quite a bit of guilt. With this feeling of guilt, perhaps in the future, he really needed to repay Qing Ling.
This was not what he originally intended.
Fang Xiaolian also walked over, initially with a somewhat stiff expression because Qing Ling was actually one of the killers of Mu Tie. If she could kill her now, she could avenge Uncle Tie.
However, seeing Lin Chen protecting Qing Ling so earnestly, she hesitated a bit.
If she really killed Qing Ling here, perhaps her relationship with Lin Chen would also deteriorate.
Thinking about these things made Fang Xiaolian hold back.
