The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1355 This guy wants to live off a woman

"Senior Lan, thank you for your invitation, but I don't want to join a sect yet. I'd like to travel around and see some friends..."

Although Lan Bingwen was somewhat disappointed, he remained as generous as ever.

"Alright, then pretend I didn't say anything. If you come to your senses later, the gates of the Divine Sword Sect will always be open to you, and the conditions I mentioned yesterday will remain in effect."

Lin Chen has just ascended to the Immortal Realm, what friends could he possibly have?
Who else could it be but Yao Xuanji?

Although Lin Chen already has two wives, and it seems unlikely that he will have a relationship with Yao Xuanji, in the world of cultivation, things are always a matter of mutual consent, and who can say for sure?

Is Lin Chen planning to go straight to the Celestial Palace route?

Lin Chen didn't actually intend to go to Fairy Xuanji, but in order not to offend anyone, he had to use her as a shield.

When refusing someone, you always need to give an explanation. You can't give the impression that "I kindly invited you and gave you face, but you don't give me face and look down on me."

Bringing up Fairy Xuanji might give people the impression that he's planning to live off a woman, but at least it won't offend anyone.

That's enough.

Lin Chen rejected the Divine Sword Sect, while Chu Jiaxue and Gu Yuexi accepted the offers from the Divine Wood Palace and the Myriad Flower Palace. Putting aside the entire Immortal Realm, in the Thunder Immortal Domain, this was considered a meteoric rise.

There are countless sects in the Immortal Realm, and even for cultivation geniuses, not everyone has the opportunity to join such a top-tier sect.

Elder Zhou of the White Crane Immortal Sect was quite happy because Lin Chen had rejected the Divine Sword Sect but accepted his invitation to stay at the White Crane Immortal Sect for a while.

This young man is not bad.

Regardless of whether he ultimately joins the White Crane Immortal Sect, this trip will at least allow him to give an account to the sect.

The sect leader had specifically instructed him to treat Lin Chen well, and if possible, to bring him into the White Crane Immortal Sect. If that wasn't possible, he should at least invite him to visit the White Crane Immortal Sect for a while.

Yao Xuanji felt not only gratitude towards Lin Chen, but also a great deal of affection for him.

Zhou Ming vividly remembered a sentence the sect leader had once said.

"The man the domain lord's daughter loves is also incredibly talented. Now that the domain lord has been gone for hundreds of years, do you think there's a possibility that he might become the new domain lord in the future?"

……

"Elder Zhou, are you just going to leave things here alone?" Lin Chen was quite surprised to learn that Zhou Ming was going to personally accompany him back to the White Crane Immortal Sect.

Zhou Ming smiled amiably and spoke in a friendly manner: "As you can see, there are truly amazing geniuses that even our White Crane Immortal Sect can't compete with. Whether I stay or not is not important."

"The White Crane Immortal Sect is ordered by Fairy Xuanji to guard the boundary gate. Its primary purpose is to ensure the reopening of the ascension passage, awaiting your ascension. Other purposes are merely secondary."

Lin Chen and Zhou Ming rode in a small flying shuttle. The array on this shuttle was more complex and ingenious. With the help of immortal spiritual energy, its speed was much faster than the flying boats in the Wilderness Realm.

The White Crane Immortal Sect is about a month's journey from Jinyuan City. Along the way, Lin Chen learned more about the Immortal Realm from Zhou Ming's casual conversations.

Although it is called the Immortal Realm, it is actually more of the Thunder Immortal Domain, because the Immortal Realm contains countless Immortal Domains. Even the most powerful cultivators have never left the Thunder Immortal Domain in their entire lives.

The White Crane Immortal Sect is located among the continuous mountain ranges of the Black Jade Mountain Range, with towering peaks and huge lakes below. On the peaks are enormous waterfalls that cascade down like water from the heavens through the clouds, and countless cranes fly among the mountains.

Zhou Ming arranged for Lin Chen to stay in the guesthouse where visiting guests were received, and finally handed Lin Chen a token.

"This is my token. With this token, you can go to the library to borrow all the cultivation books below the third floor, and you can go to most places in the White Crane Immortal Sect."

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment and asked, "I haven't joined the White Crane Immortal Sect, is that appropriate?"

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "You are not a novice in the Immortal Path, and you are not lacking in cultivation techniques or combat experience. What you lack right now is an understanding of this world. Although there are some good cultivation techniques on the third floor and below of the library, they are not of much use to you, so you don't need to worry about them."

Although he knew this was a tactic by the White Crane Immortal Sect to curry favor, Lin Chen couldn't help but feel even more favorably toward them.

Zhou Ming thought for a moment: "You can also go for a stroll on Tianjian Peak. There is only one person there, Su Wu. He was originally a pageboy by his grandmaster's side and followed his grandmaster in cultivation. Later, he became his grandmaster's sword servant."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "As Senior Su's sword servant, you must be very powerful."

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "His talent is very average. It was only because his grandmaster uncle was grateful for his continued support that he found a way to help him advance to the level of a Human Immortal. For thousands of years, he has been taking care of Tianjian Peak, but his strength has never improved."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Aren't there any other disciples on Heavenly Sword Peak?"

Zhou Ming explained, "Tianjian Peak was not famous at first. It was just an inconspicuous mountain in the Baihe Immortal Sect. Later, my grandmaster uncle secluded himself here to comprehend swordsmanship and created the Tianjian sword. Tianjian Peak got its name from this."

"He was incredibly powerful. The sect granted him permission to open the Heavenly Sword Peak and accept disciples. Although he was the peak master of the Heavenly Sword Peak, he never actually accepted any disciples. Instead, after he left, many disciples from the sect came here seeking opportunities, but thousands of years have passed, and not a single one has succeeded..."
