Chapter 2253: Chapter 2250: Shen Lin’s Smoldering Rage

"Shen Lin, there’s no need to rush. Waiting for a bit won’t make much difference in time," Yan Bei said calmly.

"Exactly, don’t think you’re all that just because you arrived first," Xiao Manxuan expressed her dissatisfaction.

Speaking of arriving first, Ji Zimo and Yuwen Xingjian felt somewhat ashamed. They had tried to outdo Shen Lin, only to find that the second test still couldn’t beat Shen Lin.

Actually, Yuwen Xingjian found it odd. Everyone had arrived, yet Lin Tian, the strongest, hadn’t. Could it be true, like Shen Lin said, that he got lost?

"This test is simply to see if we can find the correct path to the Medicine King Mansion. Lin Tian couldn’t even pass the snow mountains; continuing is just courting death," Shen Lin paid no mind to Xiao Manxuan’s tone, continuing his disdain.

"I find it strange, even I’ve found the path, why hasn’t he?" Situ Yufeng’s eyes flickered, his tone strange.

Ling Shuiyao glanced at him, sneering, "You and Situ Yuanzhong are the same, trying to curry favor, quickly standing on their side."

"You, a mere junior, calling a senior by name, is this how the Ling family educates you?" Situ Yufeng’s face turned cold, directly criticizing Ling Shuiyao’s lack of manners.

Ling Shuiyao remained unmoved, retorting, "It’s none of your business how the Ling family educates me. You were beaten like a dog before, but now you’re sucking up with such thick skin. No matter how we educate, we can’t learn that."

"You!" Situ Yufeng’s face turned unpleasant, seemingly ready to strike, but he glanced at Yan Bei and held back. "You better understand, this test is about individual opportunity. No matter how strong he is, it’s useless. With him absent, we gain one more chance."

With these words, Ji Zimo’s eyes flickered, evidently agreeing with Situ Yufeng that less competition meant more opportunity.

"I’m here, I’m here..." a breathless voice suddenly called out. Everyone looked to see a large figure running up.

"It’s you, Little Fatty Huang..." Xiao Manxuan said somewhat disappointedly, the little girl was expecting Lin Tian.

Huang Xiaopang brushed off the snow from his body, puzzled, "Why? Have I been eliminated?"

"You’re not eliminated, but Lin Tian is close to being eliminated," Situ Yufeng sneered.

"Mr. Lin hasn’t arrived? It shouldn’t be..." Huang Xiaopang circled the area, realizing Lin Tian really hadn’t arrived, thinking he should’ve been the first.

Shen Lin revealed a slight indifferent smile, walked before Yan Bei, made a bow, respectfully saying, "Senior Yan, even the fatty has arrived. I think Lin Tian is indeed lost, no need to wait any longer."

"Senior Yan..." Miss was getting anxious, wanting to argue.

But Yan Bei waved his hand, silencing everyone, then turned and looked into the distance. It was a vast snowy plain, the old man seemed to be admiring the snow scene.

Everyone found it strange but dared not speak, only accompanying Yan Bei in "watching the scenery."

A few minutes later, a moving white dot appeared in their view, drawing closer, finally revealed as a snow leopard.

"Snow leopard, such fast speed!" Ji Zimo exclaimed, his usually composed face changed as he realized the snow leopard’s speed surpassed his own.

A beast’s speed faster than even an Innate Strong Person like him was indeed surprising. Soon, others noticed this situation too, each stunned.

"Snow leopards in the snowy plains aren’t strange, but why can a beast run so fast..." Yuwen Xingjian said puzzled.

"Sister, there’s someone riding on it," Xiao Manxuan said softly, the little girl’s eyesight improving, almost matching that of an Ancient Martial Artist.

"Not just one..." Ling Shuiyao also astonished, doubted, "Seems to be a girl. There’s someone sitting behind her, but it’s unclear who."

The snow leopard approached nearer, everyone tensed, understanding the danger of a beast faster than Innate Early Stage Ancient Martial Artists.

Only two people remained calm: Yan Bei and Shen Lin. They seemed to recognize who it was, but when Shen Lin saw the man behind the girl, his expression soured.

Soon, the snow leopard was just hundreds of meters away. Everyone finally saw the little girl’s face, and the person behind.

"Mr. Lin, it’s Mr. Lin!" Little Fatty excitedly shouted, one of those most hoping Lin Tian wouldn’t be eliminated.

"Haha, Brother Tian’s really impressive, riding a snow leopard in. Those with ulterior motives can zip it," Ghost laughed heartily.

"Hmph!" Shen Lin snorted heavily, first time showing such anger since his appearance, leaving everyone puzzled.

However, Miss and the others paid no heed, went to greet Lin Tian. The leopard stopped abruptly right in front.

Lin Tian jumped down effortlessly, smiling, "Everyone, sorry to keep you waiting."

"Not long, not long. Brother Lin, you’ve broadened my horizons. What’s the snow leopard’s origin?" Yuwen Xingjian curiously asked, others also focused on the snow leopard and the little girl.

"Yeah, Lin Tian, where’d you lure the little girl from?" Ling Shuiyao joked, Xiao sisters also sizing up Yan Lingling, curious how Lin Tian found the little girl amidst icy snow.

Yan Lingling wasn’t shy, nimbly jumped down, even soothed the snow leopard to prevent further fright.

"Hello, beautiful sisters. Lin Tian didn’t lure me here, it was me who brought him. Oh, and I’m Yan Lingling," Yan Lingling sweetly said.

The call of beautiful sisters immediately brought her closer to Miss and the other beauties.

"You also carry the Yan surname? Could it be..." Miss’s eyes lit up, recalling something, guessing.

Shen Lin’s words interrupted her guess: "Lingling, come over, why converse with them, don’t lower your status."

Yan Lingling furrowed her curved eyebrows, clearly unhappy, "Brother Lin Tian is my friend, so are the sisters. How can you say that?"

Even angry, the little girl had a childish air, but everyone could tell Shen Lin’s words displeased her greatly.

"Brother Lin Tian? How long have you known him to call him so intimately? Outsiders befriending you are only after the Medicine King Mansion’s elixir and cultivation technique. Be careful they don’t trick you. Besides, with their low status, what qualifies them to befriend us?"

Shen Lin glanced at Lin Tian and others, arrogantly stated, enraging them, but he wasn’t afraid, confident to face them.

"Hey, hey, hey, why such foul speech, not brushed your teeth in months? I don’t care about your status nonsense. Saying we’re after cultivation techniques and elixir, fatty here is not happy," Huang Xiaopang retorted loudly, clearly annoyed.
