Xie Wanling looked at Lin Chen emerging from the jungle and finally let out a sigh of relief; this guy finally showed up.

Lin Chen had heard the conversation between the two just now. It was clear that Xie Wanling really disliked Bai Shan, but this Bai Shan was shamelessly clinging to her.

As for this kind of fly-swatting job, Lin Chen considered himself quite skilled, so after listening for a bit, he walked out of the jungle.

Bai Shan gave Lin Chen a cold look, eyes filled with disdain, "Who are you, kid? Daring to talk about me, do you know who I am?"

Lin Chen snorted coldly, "I don't care who you are, but if you dare to hit on my girl, you're asking for death."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chen charged at Bai Shan like lightning.

Two middle-aged men behind Bai Shan had a stern look on their faces and hurried forward to block Lin Chen.

"Destroyer!"

With a loud shout from Lin Chen, the two Innate Realm experts felt a tremor in their minds. During the moment the two were stunned, Lin Chen had already passed between them.

The next instant, Lin Chen's hand shot out and directly grabbed Bai Shan by the collar, lifting him into the air.

"Kid, Xie Wanling is my woman. Be smart and get lost. Don't let me see you again, or you're dead," Lin Chen said fiercely.

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Bai Shan was instantly stunned, "What, your woman?"

Xie Wanling was the most charming woman in the circle of second-generation officials, not only beautiful but also with an unfathomable background. Countless rich and powerful heirs had tried everything to win her over, but she was like an ice queen, completely ignoring their advances.

This kid popped out from nowhere and dared to claim that Xie Wanling was his woman.

"Are you kidding me? With your shabby look, you dare to say Wan Ling is your woman? Are you joking?" Bai Shan said coldly.

Bai Shan's gaze scrutinized Lin Chen, more and more convinced that the kid was bluffing.

To think that Xie Wanling—the ice queen of their elite circle—would be pursued by this unremarkable-looking guy dressed in street stall clothes was simply impossible.

Xie Wanling blushed upon hearing Lin Chen's words, silently cursing him.

"Although you're helping me swat flies, kid, you've got to watch your words. When did I become your woman?"

Suddenly, Xie Wanling somewhat regretted letting Lin Chen come forward to save the day.

When Bai Shan saw that Xie Wanling did not refute out loud, he was dumbfounded.

Not speaking was tantamount to Xie Wanling tacitly acknowledging her relationship with Lin Chen, which was simply unbelievable.

One was a coveted beauty blessed with wealth and power, and the other was Lin Chen with his loafer appearance. Bai Shan even felt that in every aspect, he was ten times better than Lin Chen, but why were the good flowers always taken by pigs? How could Xie Wanting become Lin Chen's woman?

After struggling for a bit, Bai Shan said viciously, "Let me go, bastard. You, trash like you, dare to say you're Wan Ling's man. You're not afraid of the wind cutting your tongue? You should take a piss and look in the mirror; with your wretched looks, you think you deserve to be Wan Ling's man?"

No matter what, Bai Shan was unwilling to believe the fact that Xie Wanling could be Lin Chen's woman.

"Slap!" A loud slap rang out, and Bai Shan's bodyguards were all dumbfounded.

"Has this kid gone mad? He actually dared to slap Young Master Bai."

"Wan Ling is for you to call? Daring to call my woman by her nickname, do you want to die?"

"Kid, I am the young master of the Bai family; you dare to hit me?" Bai Shan said fuming.

"Slap! Another slap landed on Bai Shan's face, sending him flying four or five meters away. 'Bai family, I'm hitting your Bai family!'"

"I've held Wan Ling's hand, kissed her lips, and shared a bed with her, and you dare to call her by her nickname? Only I can call Wan Ling by that name, got it?" Lin Chen said coldly.

Having received several slaps from Lin Chen, Bai Shan's face was becoming increasingly unsightly. When had he, the young master of the Bai family, ever been subjected to such humiliation?

Xie Wanling's expression was even worse. What did he mean by holding hands, kissing, and sharing a bed? If these words got out, how could she ever marry?

Bai Shan's face grew darker as he looked at Xie Wanling with a devastated expression and asked, "Wan Ling, is everything this guy said true?"

Xie Wanling felt such hatred inside. Lin Chen had stepped in to help her out of a tough spot; she couldn't possibly say it wasn't true!

If this guy found out Lin Chen was lying, Bai Shan would definitely keep pestering her. She was annoyed just looking at him; if he stuck to her like glue, she wouldn't be able to stand it.

But if she admitted it, how could she face anyone in the future?

After a moment of thought, Xie Wanling gritted her teeth and said, "Lin Chen is right, I am his woman."

"What!" Hearing Xie Wanling's affirmative response, a hideous look crossed Bai Shan's face.

In his heart, Xie Wanling had always been an ice queen goddess, but now she had become the woman of this loser right before his eyes.

His goddess had not only held hands with this poor boy but had also kissed him and even shared a bed with him.

"You cheap slut, pretending to be a cold ice queen, but deep down you're just a cheap whore. You're even into this loser. I'll get my hands on you today and I'll torment you until you wish you were dead. Everybody attack! Kill the man, but leave the woman to me!" Bai Shan roared angrily.

This was a primeval forest, and if Bai Shan tormented Xie Wanling to death here, no one would ever know.

The several men in black behind Bai Shan pulled out their weapons and began to attack Lin Chen.

"Hey, Lin Chen, need help?" Xu Ye chuckled.

"No need, just a few guys asking for a beating," Lin Chen replied with an icy smile on his lips.

Bai Shan's dozen or so men in black instantly surrounded Lin Chen, their weapons glinting coldly as they chopped at him.

"Delusional fools. If a dozen Innate Realm masters can't take down a single poor loser, then our Bai family has no place in Huaxia," Bai Shan said with a cold smile on his lips.

Seeing Lin Chen surrounded, Xie Wanling's face changed color: "Lin Chen is strong, but it's too much for one person to fend off more than a dozen Innate Realm masters."

"Annihilate!"

With a roar, an intense soul fluctuation radiated from Lin Chen.

The next moment, those Innate Realm masters charging at Lin Chen acted as if they had seen something terrifying and broke ranks all of a sudden.

Although it was just a few seconds, it was enough for Lin Chen.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Accompanied by a series of muffled thuds, the dozen or so men in black rushing towards Lin Chen were kicked back like sandbags.

"Ah, ah, ah!"

Screams echoed through the jungle, and the goons who had just been full of aggression were now lying on the ground with broken bones and tendons, groaning in pain.

How could this be possible? Looking at his wailing subordinates on the ground, Bai Shan's face turned ghastly pale, shocked to the point his jaw almost dropped.
