The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1167 If you can live, who would want to die?

"Senior, how is your recovery going?"

When Lin Chen met Gui Chang, Gui Chang was having tea with Old Master Chu.

Gui Chang's voice was full of energy: "The recovery is going very well. I feel like I can live for at least another ten or eight years."

"Let me take a look for you."

Lin Chen reached out and placed his hand on Gui Chang's wrist, examining Gui Chang's body.

As Gui Chang said, although he had taken a lot of pills during this period, his meridians were severely damaged. In addition, due to the erosion of time, all parts of his body had deteriorated significantly. His current condition was the limit of his recovery. If there were no accidents, Gui Chang could live for at most another ten years!

Lin Chen smiled and took out a Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit, saying, "Eat this, and you can live for several hundred more years without any problem."

Gui Chang's expression changed drastically, his eyes wide with shock: "The Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "You know him, senior?"

Gui Chang's gaze was complicated: "In our time, the Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit was the main means of prolonging life, but the Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Tree was very rare. Most importantly, its growth cycle was extremely long. It took thousands of years just for the fruit to ripen, and a Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Tree only produced one fruit... I never thought that after ten thousand years, it would still be alive and well."

Lin Chen placed the fruit in Gui Chang's hand and smiled, "Since you know about it, senior, I don't need to explain its uses..."

Gui Chang's gaze was complex. Although he had been frozen for ten thousand years and had long since become indifferent to death, who would want to die if they could live?

This one fruit can extend his life by at least three hundred years!

More importantly, by consuming it, its body will be greatly repaired, and its strength will return to normal, instead of its current state of being a cripple!
The Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit is priceless!
Even in ancient times, when there were still many Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Trees, a single fruit was incredibly valuable, let alone now.

Lin Chen actually took one out and gave it to him!

Gui Chang looked up at Lin Chen and asked, "What do you need me to do for you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I don't need anything. When you taught me the great secret technique, you didn't ask me to do anything for you either."

After a slight pause, Lin Chen glanced at Old Master Chu beside him and said with a smile, "If I had to make a request, I've noticed that you've been guiding my mother and Han Wei in their cultivation lately. So please, senior, give them some guidance in your spare time in the future."

Gui Chang frowned: "That's it?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Yes, that's it."

Gui Chang looked at the fruit in his hand: "From what I've observed, your grandfather didn't seem to eat it either, did he?" Old Master Chu laughed heartily: "I'm not even a cultivator, it would be a waste for me to eat this, don't worry about me."

Lin Chen explained with a smile, "Although the old man is quite old, he is new to the cultivation world and the spiritual energy is abundant. With the nourishment of the pills, he can easily live for another forty or fifty years. He is currently in the initial stage of cultivation. The effect will be better if he takes the pills after he has mastered the basics. Taking them now will greatly reduce their effectiveness."

Gui Chang suddenly realized: "You have more?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, there's one more. Right now, you're the one who needs it the most, then my grandfather. The others are too young to use it."

Seeing this, Gui Chang stopped refusing. After all, who wouldn't want to live another three hundred years in good health?
"Well, I never thought that I would run into someone destined for me when I was about to die. I've hit the jackpot."

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Senior has been kind enough to pass on his skills to me, so I naturally regard you as an elder. You don't need to think too much about it."

Lin Chen had naturally considered giving Gui Chang the Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit.

Although Gui Chang had taught Lin Chen his skills, Lin Chen had also saved him, so he had already repaid him. Therefore, it was not necessary for Gui Chang to give him the Xuanwu Heavenly Scale Fruit to prolong his life.

Before Lin Chen could ascertain the mindset and style of an ancient powerhouse like Gui Chang, he would certainly hold back.

In the past few months, Gui Chang spent his free time drinking tea, playing chess, and fishing with Grandpa Chu. He was practically a friend to the elderly. Moreover, he would casually give pointers to his mother Feng Lan, his aunt Feng Yazhen, Han Wei, and Zhou Yin, and even taught them top-notch martial arts techniques.

Under these circumstances, Lin Chen naturally felt at ease extending Gui Chang's lifespan. Firstly, out of gratitude, and secondly, because Gui Chang had regained his strength, he would be one of the world's top experts. With him here, his family would have a reliable support should any problems arise.

Lin Chen also had an even more effective Immortal Essence Pill, but he obviously didn't need it.

Extending one's life by three hundred years is enough.

If all goes well, Fairy Xuanji has already been resurrected and returned to the Immortal Realm. We should also enter the Immortal Realm, at which time our lifespan will naturally increase significantly.

Even if 300 years doesn't work, we can always find another way.

We're all so young, and we have plenty of time, so what's there to be afraid of?

Even for Old Master Chu, once he enters the realm of cultivation, his lifespan will increase significantly, and the age difference of several decades is nothing in the eyes of cultivators.

There are quite a few elderly people who enter the Taoist path.

Lin Chen bowed to Gui Chang and said, "My senior sister and I will be heading to Donghuang Prefecture soon. Please take care of everyone at home!"
